by White Elk Woman
White Elk Woman is a well-known and loved figure in crystal skull circles, so when I learned that she had produced a CD I was instantly smitten with the desire to own it. I attended a crystal skull conference she organised in 2010 and had the most amazing experiences there, and my hope was that some of this had been ‘bottled’ and served up in this CD. I was not disappointed.
The track titles are a mixture of self-explanatory and intriguing – Ancestors, Obelisk, Sacred Space, Abundance Island, Voyage of Discovery, 11:11 Transformation, Lotus Flower and The Blue Skull – and there is a mixture of styles as you listen to the album, too. The first track is a weighty amalgam of deep resonance and low-voiced non-verbal vocals to help get you into a contemplative mood. The second continues with the deep resonating sounds that get to work right in the centre of your chest, but add toning at a feminine level of pitch, albeit still not high. If you sat with your eyes closed and just listened to these tracks, you would be in the right place for the next one which, along with the addition of gong sounds and a sort of spacey, almost underwater echo, invites you to ‘release, allow, trust, power’.
You could listen to this album in a number of ways. You could sit and listen to a couple of tracks to help you unwind after a stressful day. You could use it as a meditation practice and listen to it all the way through or just pick a number of tracks to the required amount of time. You could put it on the iPod and listen to tracks at random, interspersed with other music. You could even play it while giving a Reiki session. In any of these contexts, you would receive a certain amount of benefit. The music enters not just through your ears but via your entire vibrational field, and I would not be surprised to learn that it has effects at levels you would barely be aware of.
