Are You Coming to Your Senses? Your Soul’s Sense of Sound
Welcome to the second part of a five-part series on how your soul perceives your physical senses. In our previous article, The Sense of Sight, we discussed insight — the ability to see what is beyond the physical that is around you. Insight is a well-recognized phenomenon and is commonly referred to as the Sixth Sense, the Third Eye, or psychic ability, which you can learn more about from intuition expert Sonia Choquette.
Have you ever pondered that there might be a similar soul experience for sound? What might we call such an experience? Your inner sound waves of insight? Sound that is in alignment? For the purpose of this article we will refer to it as in-sound.
Sound as a Spiritual Experience
On the human plane of existence, sound is an important part of your spiritual experience. For example, music has never been more popular than it is today. There are numerous healing practitioners who use sound therapy of some form or another with their clients. And sound-based activities such as drumming circles are gaining in popularity outside of indigenous communities as a means for humans to connect with themselves and Source.
Thinking about the sense of sound in other ways…how many humans claim to hear voices at some time or another? Almost anyone who has spent much time in nature would say they’ve imagined they heard a voice in the wind at some point. Has it ever happened that you thought you heard the crying out of a woman or child, yet you can’t figure out where the sound has come from?
Have you ever heard some sort of a tone or had a ringing in your ears when there is nothing around you that could be making that sound? For instance, there isn’t a bell ringing or a television show on in your home or the next-door neighbor’s house. There’s no phone ringing, or even an electrical current hooked up to some device that would justify you hearing something. There is nothing physical that could be held accountable for making the noise, and yet you hear a sound.
The Sound of Your Soul
These sounds or voices that we are speaking of are the voices from within. This is your soul connecting to the oneness that is around you. These are the beings, so to speak, that are in the dimensions that are all around you. This is the energy connection to your flame.
Every soul emits a tone, and all high-vibrational essence beings know you by your sound.
What is the tonality of another soul, and how do you hear that sound? You hear it through the in-sound of your own soul! You don’t hear it standing next to someone else. You can’t hear someone else’s sound by holding your ear really close to their physical embodiment and saying to them “What is it I am listening for? I’ve been told there is a tonality to you and your existence, but I just can’t hear it!”
There’s too much density to the human body in the physical. Light, which is inside of you, has a high frequency pitch to it. This is what your soul aligns itself with. You can’t hear another soul’s tone with your physical ears — you can only hear it in your soul.
The Presence of Energy
You have to remember that science can’t prove this. Science can only prove the physical. Yet science knows it exists. How? Because the energy shows itself in scientific experiments on scales and meters, even though there is no physical proof of it! Theoretically, science predicts that sound and tonality will go even higher on their scales, but they don’t have an explanation for it. Science can’t accept it as it being something spiritual because they have no understanding of that aspect.
Energy is present even when you can’t see it. Have you ever stood under a group of overhead electrical wires and heard a popping or humming sound? Those wires are carrying currents of energy that most human beings use every day, yet you can’t see the energy…but you can certainly hear it!
What we would tell you is that there is energy that is more refined than what science can even comprehend. Science has recognized tones and sound that it can’t explain, so can we call it a midway or perhaps a middle ground of acceptance?
Experience the Energy of Sound
Meet renowned sound healer and modern-day Mystic Tom Kenyon in the film Song of the New Earth. He integrates modern-day scientific advances in sound research with mystical and ancient traditions including alchemy, Shamanism, and more. Sound can heal not only us but our planet, Mother Earth.
Hearing the Voices Within
Humans have been taught in most cases to run away from their in-sound, from the voices within. Why is that? Because religions have dictated that this is an evil occurrence, that it’s your alter ego or even the Devil speaking to you. In reality, it’s just the opposite…
What you hear through your physical ear is the altered ego state, and what you hear coming from within you is the God Voice.
You must remember, though, that everything has been designed through social consciousness to dis-empower you. Why? Those in power know that if you were to become empowered, you would not continue to serve them. So they have continued to come up with threats. The ultimate threat being that of Hell and damnation if you don’t abide by the guidelines they have laid out for you in the physical.
Many people are able to gain access to their in-sound during meditation. Spontaneous chanting during meditation or spiritual ceremonies is really the soul declaring itself, aligning itself with the tonalities from within. You are accessing sounds from interdimensional worlds and bringing them forth into the physical. Before you can produce sounds vocally, you have to hear them internally. That is the inner sound we are speaking about. And that is in alignment with your soul.
To access these higher forms of consciousness and further empower yourself, try Gaiam TV’s Fractal Meditation System. It can help you stimulate your mind into enhanced awareness.
The Difference Between Healing and Emotion
Feelings are the sensory system based upon the physical. Feelings are mostly shallow and fleeting, easily changed, and influenced by what is going on around you. In contrast, the emotional sensory system of the soul is a deeply resonating experience. It is the experience that is carried with you from lifetime to lifetime, from existence to existence. These are the emotions that move, change, shift, and expand you.
Can you see or feel the difference? Will you now HEAR things differently in your life? We hope this perspective on in-sound has opened you up to hearing your soul speaking to you.

Dowsing: What It Is, How It Works, and What It’s Used For
Dowsing is a technique that allows one to detect vibrations or subtle fields present in people, objects, and places. It relies on the natural human ability to perceive energetic frequencies that escape the physical senses but can influence our well-being and our environment.
In this article, we explore what dowsing is, how it works, and how it can help us understand the relationship between mind, energy, and matter.

What Is Dowsing?
Dowsing is based on the idea that everything in the universe emits a vibrational frequency that can be perceived by the human body. Using tools like pendulums or rods, it is possible to translate this energetic information into physical movements that reveal data about the state of a person, a space, or a situation. This technique starts from the principle that we are sensitive receivers of subtle fields and that this perception can be trained for practical or introspective purposes.
The body acts as a bridge between the visible and the invisible: when it is in a receptive state, it can register signals that bypass logical reasoning and instead reach us through intuition. The movements generated in dowsing tools—such as spins, oscillations, or vibrations—are not caused by the object itself, but by an interaction between the energetic field of what is being consulted and the sensitivity of the dowser.
In addition to its use in the search for water, minerals, or lost objects, dowsing is also used to explore emotional, physical, or spiritual aspects of a person. It serves as a gateway to a more subtle dimension of reality, where mind, energy, and consciousness intertwine in a deep dialogue.
Brief History and Evolution of Dowsing
The use of dowsing dates back to ancient civilizations that used rods or Y-shaped branches to locate underground water or minerals. In cultures such as the Chinese, Egyptian, or Roman, it was acknowledged that the Earth emitted energetic currents that could influence people’s well-being and the harmony of spaces. Over time, this practice took on different approaches depending on the spiritual and scientific traditions of each era.
During the 19th and 20th centuries, dowsing began to be systematized and studied as an energetic discipline. More precise instruments were developed, such as the dowsing pendulum and vibrational measurement scales, which allowed the technique to be applied in fields as diverse as health, geobiology, and the exploration of natural resources. Today, it continues to be used as a complementary tool to explore the relationship between energy, consciousness, and matter.
How Dowsing Works and What Energy It Detects
Dowsing works through the interaction between the energetic field of the environment and the sensitivity of the dowser. When a person enters a relaxed state of attention and holds a tool such as a pendulum or a rod, their body acts as an amplifier that responds to subtle stimuli. The movements produced in the instruments are not random; they reflect an unconscious response that can be interpreted as “yes,” “no,” or as a direction to follow.
The energy detected in dowsing corresponds to vibrations present in everything that exists. These may be related to a person’s vital state, the geobiological energy of a piece of land, the vibrational quality of food, or even emotional imprints that persist in a space. The technique helps identify variations in these fields, aiding in more balanced and aligned decision-making.
The key to how dowsing works lies in its ability to translate the invisible into observable signals. It is not a form of divination, but rather an energetic reading based on a fundamental principle: everything is made of energy, and it is possible to tune into it by training perception and using the right tools.
Uri Geller and His Relationship With Dowsing
Uri Geller, world-renowned for his psychic abilities and telekinetic phenomena, also explored dowsing as a way to understand the energetic field that surrounds us. In the series Uri Geller’s Legacy of Paranormal Experiences, available on Gaia, his experiences with this practice are explored in depth—from its use in the search for deposits to its role in his spiritual transformation.
In the episode From Dowsing to Spirituality, Geller reveals how this technique was key to opening new dimensions of perception in his life.
Tools Used in Dowsing
Although energetic perception can be developed without instruments, many people use tools that amplify and translate subtle impulses into physical signals. These tools hold no inherent power but function as extensions of the operator’s field of consciousness. Each one serves a specific purpose and can be adapted to different types of energetic inquiry.
- Dowsing pendulum: A small mass suspended by a thread or chain. It moves according to the energetic vibrations of the environment and provides simple answers (yes, no, maybe).
- L-shaped rods: Two metal rods bent at right angles. They are used to explore physical spaces and detect energetic alterations in a location, such as geopathic stress or underground currents.
- Y-shaped rod (or forked stick): Traditionally used to find underground water. The tip lowers when the operator approaches a source or flow.
- Aurameter: A rod with a spiral or sphere at the tip. It is used to measure the energetic field (aura) of people, animals, or objects.
- Biometer or Bovis scale: A numerical scale that measures the “energetic vitality” of something. It helps determine whether an energy is high, low, or neutral.
- Witnesses or energetic samples: Objects or photographs that represent what is being searched for. They help focus the search by acting as a point of connection with the target’s energy.
- Dowsing charts or bases: Templates with symbols or geometric shapes. These are placed under the pendulum to guide and refine responses.
Applications of Dowsing in Everyday Life
Dowsing is not only used in spiritual or therapeutic contexts, but also in practical aspects of daily life. Thanks to its ability to detect energetic imbalances, it is used as a tool for guidance, diagnosis, and harmonization at both a personal and environmental level.
- Energetic health: It can be used to identify blockages or imbalances in a person’s energetic field. This helps guide complementary healing practices.
- Food selection: Dowsing helps evaluate the vibrational charge of foods before consuming them, allowing for choices that are more aligned with physical well-being.
- Space harmonization: It is used to detect areas with dense energy in the home or workplace. Measures can then be applied to restore balance to the environment.
- Searching for objects or water: Traditionally, it has been used to find lost objects or underground water sources. The tool acts as a sensor that responds to energetic traces.
- Decision-making: Some people consult dowsing when choosing between important options. The pendulum, for example, may reflect which alternative is more aligned with the person consulting.
- Evaluation of objects or crystals: Dowsing allows the energy of amulets, crystals, or ancient objects to be measured, helping determine whether their frequency is beneficial or needs cleansing.
Everything Is Energy: Understanding the Basis of Dowsing
The foundation of dowsing lies in a fundamental understanding of the universe: everything is made of energy. Beyond visible matter, every being, object, and place emits a unique frequency that can be perceived by those who refine their sensitivity. This energy is not mystical or exclusive to spirituality; it is part of the invisible fabric that sustains physical reality.
When a person trains their ability to perceive these subtle fields, they can access a deeper dimension of the world around them. Dowsing is a tool that facilitates this access, acting as a translator between the energetic and the tangible. By detecting vibrations, it allows for more conscious decision-making, the harmonization of environments, and a deeper understanding of the connections between body, mind, and surroundings.
In the series Superhuman: The Invisible Made Visible, available on Gaia, cases and experiments are presented that demonstrate the power of the mind to interact with energy. Through scientific research and real-life experiences, the series offers a fascinating look at our perceptual abilities and how they can be trained to expand our understanding of reality.
