Traditionally, the Inti or Inti Tayta (Father Sun) is a symbol of divine masculinity. The Sun played an important role in the lives of the Inka peoples. The Sun, as the most visible embodiment of light during the day, was seen as a giver of warmth (in the form of fire) and the giver of life. The daily cycle of the Sun rising in the east and setting in the west made it a symbol of birth, death, and resurrection. The cycles of the Sun also helped mark the times of the harvest, and its life-giving principle made the harvest flourish. In this way, it is no wonder that the Inka peoples believed the Sun was their maker, and that they too were beings of light.

The transformative power of certain sounds has long been understood by indigenous medicine cultures the world over. Somewhere along the way, it was discovered that certain frequencies of sound have healing potential. They also learned that the wave patterns of some sounds could be used to neutralize energetic blocks in the body and to reorganize discordant energy in alignment with the body’s natural rhythms.

The sacred technology of sound has also been utilized in ritual and ceremony as a means to create sacred space. Musical instruments can also be used in healing. Chimes and bells have a powerful relation to the mind. Continuous rhythmic music causes brain wave patterns to slow, allowing one to enter into what is known as an alpha or theta state. These altered, or non-ordinary states of consciousness, help connect to the spiritual realms, which assist the process of entrainment to energies resonant with our body’s natural rhythms.
