International Harmony
Based Upon a Music
of Planetary Grid Systems
by Barbara Hero
This essay correlates the earth grid systems with specific musical notes, thus
enabling one to find harmonic relationships related to distances between cities or
countries. A chart of miles and corresponding musical notes is included so that one
can determine the musically harmonic intervals.

This paper will propose a method of correlating Earth Grid systems with specific musical notes, by a process of translating length to frequencies which can then be translated to musical notes. A method of octave expansion and octave reduction was used to determine the specific frequency of a note. When this theory is applied to the relationships of countries to sounds, a way of increasing harmony between countries can be suggested by knowing a key note of the distance between them. A correspondence with Pythagorean Lambdoma of seven rays is suggested. In September of 1983 1 received a letter from Governors State University in Illinois requesting submission of information or research on a project called THE PLANETARY GRID SYSTEM. I wrote back a note saying that perhaps I could help by identifying the musical interval of the modular grid system if there is a module that has been determined in length. Then, a year later in December, 1984, Bethe Hagens and William Becker sent a copy of the magazine "Pursuit" (1) which featured their research. And in this article the distances in miles of the grid system they devised was given, so that I could get to work to determine certain musical relationships. I sent a letter detailing these relationships. After receiving my letter Bethe Hagens replied: "Thank you so much for your letter. I wanted you to know that we had received it. I am kind of stunned by what you have found in the grid - and your political interpretations. It's one of the most fascinating responses we've ever received. I don't know that I told you, but I am a professional violinist when I am not being an anthropologist. Your work in harmonics begins to get at something I have felt intuitively must exist but had no way to express. "...I have not had the time to sit with your letter and really absorb it. I will write again once I have something intelligent to say. Again, thanks so much for writing." The Becker-Hagens report presented a theory of the growing structure of the earth, from the tetrahedron, octahedron, cube, icosahedron, and dodecahedron. These are the Platonic solids attributed to Pythagoras (500 B.C.). The dodecahedron and icosahedron together, Becker and Hagens found to be the grid system of our present age. When the line arrays of each of these solids is overlaid on a sphere, a grid emerges which they contend is a pattern the ancient peoples used for becoming one with the earth.(2) Briefly, factors to consider when calculating the harmonic implications between countries, cities, or villages include the following: o What is the great circle distance in miles between two points on the grid system? o What are the major apex points? o Is the assumption that Giza is the major point valid, or has the energy changed since the building of the Great Pyramid? o Are significant places in history nodes of the grid system? o Are fault lines energy lines? o Are mountain ranges energy lines? o What is the difference between the fault lines and the mountain range lines in terms of energy? o Could certain distances portend problem areas in terms of harmonies? The Becker-Hagens report mentioned the "Twelve Devils' Graveyards Around the World" (Saga Magazine, 1972) where magnetic and energy aberrations were located. These are found zig-zaging the equator at 30 degrees above and 30 degrees below the equator. Using an "Atlas" software computer program, Robert Foulkrod found the distance in miles to be 4264 miles between adjacent "Graveyards." The corresponding musical frequency based on the speed of sound in air is 0.0000502 cps. By octave expansion to the middle "C" octave (multiplying by 2 to the "n" number of times), this translates to a musical note of "A". This particular distance or musical note might be an indication of disharmony between countries, if, indeed, distance is a factor. The Becker-Hagens report sets the kite shaped grid dimensions as 1400 miles (short end of the kite), 2200 miles (the outside kite length), and 2600 miles (the brace down the middle of the kite). The musical notes are "E flat", "A flat", and "F", respectively. The latter note represents the distance between Gomel in the Soviet Union and Sebha in Libya. Therefore the musical sound of "F" at 345 cps might be accentuated for harmony between these two countries. The Becker-Hagens report mentioned the theory by Sinkiewitz who claimed that the present energy grid sytem is out of alignment with the ancient grid system, and that New Age Spiritual communities around the globe are rediscovering the new grid and building sacred sites to activate them. The Aleutian Islands have been predicted to be the new North Pole. See Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5. [not included here but if anyone is exceptionally interested, let me know and I will scan, UUENCODE and post them.] What is the distance involved when a diamond of a 70 degree apex is overlaid on the new North PoIe, and the legs of the diamond terminate at the Equator? This is the shape which some have found intuitively very emotionally responsive as if from a long forgotten past. A "key note" of a country could be determined by means of a Lambdoma diagram (a Pythagorean model). See Figure 6, References 3 through 8. The apex of the Lambdoma diagram is divided equally as the diagonal down the center of the x and y axis. The diagonal has a ratio of 1:1, so that whatever the distance is along the diagonal of the grid would be its "key note". For example Gomel in the Becker-Hagens grid has seven rays radiating from the apex point, and the diagonal which represents the "key note" extends from Gomel to El Eglab, 2600 miles, an "F" musically. From Cairo to London is 2183 miles, a "G#". Each of the rays of the grid would exhibit a unique energy, and much work has to be done to determine the quality of these differing energies. See Figures 7 & 8. In the case of the earth the circumference of the earth should be taken into account as a reference distance and frequency, the circumference is 24,860 miles. This is equivalent to a "D" musically (in air). In conclusion, if the earth is in transition in terms of developing into a new phase of grid lines, this factor might indicate a shift of energy or frequency at different places on the earth. See Figure 9. The grid patterns would then take on different distances. See Figure 10. We might ask how can we as humans help the earth in this transitory phase? First, recognizing that harmonies between cities or countries is based upon attunement to each other's energy patterns. Most of all let us attune ourselves to the earth's energies, recognizing the oneness of all things in our material universe, and learning the importance of sound as a manifestation of different realities. Any grid system has to have distance as one of the factors, since wavelength is inherent in all sound vibrations, as the inversion of frequency. Even though we cannot hear the specific frequency of a grid line, the interval quality is present though inaudible. So lets make them audible.
