ESSENCE

I am the glass that remembers being earth—silica and fire transformed into something that holds light rather than structure. When you're ready to see beyond what you've been telling yourself, when the old stories have grown too small, I create the conditions for that unraveling. I don't force. I don't fix. I simply hold the door open while you walk through it yourself.

THE ELEMENT

Andara is a silica-based glass distinguished by its vivid colors—emerald, sapphire, violet, rose, gold—and its distinctive vitreous luster. First recognized in 1955 by Nellie Morse Thompson, a Choctaw medicine woman who discovered specimens near Mount Shasta, California, Andara has since become one of the most sought-after materials in contemporary energy work. The High Sierra Nevada region where it originates has long been recognized as a high-energy vortex site, and practitioners describe Andara as carrying that concentrated earth energy in crystallized form.

When Andara is infused into quartz crystal through Divine Bowls' proprietary process, its molecular structure integrates at the deepest level—not as a surface coating, but as part of what vibrates when the bowl sings. This integration creates a unique microstructure within the quartz, producing resonance patterns you won't hear from any other instrument. The result is a bowl that carries Andara's reputation for high-vibrational work directly into sound.

Within spiritual traditions, Andara is valued for its purported ability to amplify intentions and facilitate rapid shifts in consciousness. People reach for it when they're ready to accelerate—when meditation has plateaued, when old patterns need breaking, when clarity matters more than comfort. Working with this element invites you to meet your own capacity for transformation honestly, without bypassing the work that genuine change requires.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in C# at 1094 Hz, a high fifth-octave frequency that vibrates through the upper body—head, throat, sinuses, skull, and cervical spine. In the Western diatonic system, C# occupies the transition space between Root and Sacral chakras, carrying an energetic quality of awakening and emergence. Sharp notes like C# have a piercing clarity; they cut through fog.

When Andara's accelerating properties meet this high C# frequency, the combination creates something potent for upper energy work. The frequency's natural affinity for the head and throat amplifies Andara's traditional associations with clear seeing and honest expression. People often describe this pairing as "clarifying"—a sound that helps scattered thoughts settle into focus, that supports the kind of mental sharpness needed for breakthrough moments.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 1094 Hz. Using A=432 as reference, it plays C#+8. Using A=440 as reference, this same frequency is C#-20.

This bowl is categorized in the A=432 tuning because its frequency aligns with instruments tuned to A=432 Hz—often called "Verdi tuning" or "natural tuning." Many people find A=432 produces a warmer, more organic quality that feels easier on the nervous system. If you have instruments tuned to A=432, or simply prefer this earth-connected sound, this bowl will harmonize beautifully with them.

(For fine adjustment, adding water to the bowl lowers the pitch slightly—a technique some use to dial in precise intervals when playing with other instruments.)

THE SIZE

At 6 inches, this bowl produces fifth-octave tones with short to medium sustain—bright, clear notes that speak and then release rather than lingering indefinitely. The intimate volume makes it ideal for personal practice, close energy work, bedside rituals, or travel. This size allows Andara's clarifying energy to express with focused intensity, while the high-octave resonance naturally targets the head and upper body. The compact form means you can bring this bowl anywhere—from your morning meditation corner to a hotel room on the road to a quiet moment in your office before a presentation.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you need to cut through mental fog, when you're preparing for something that requires your sharpest self, or when you sense you're ready to release an old story that no longer serves. Play it close—this is an intimate instrument. Strike or rim the bowl and let the high C# frequency wash through your upper body. Notice what clarifies. Notice what you suddenly see that was hidden before.

For morning ritual, play this bowl before the day's demands arrive, setting an intention for clear perception. Athletes and performers might use it during visualization practice, letting the frequency sharpen mental imagery. Writers and creatives can play it when facing a blank page, inviting the kind of mental breakthrough that Andara traditionally supports. In professional settings, a few moments with this bowl before a high-stakes meeting or presentation can help scattered thoughts coalesce into focus.

Each Divine Bowls singing bowl includes a pure quartz mallet wrapped in premium silicone for optimal resonance, plus a silicone O-ring for stable playing on hard surfaces. Every bowl is formed in a single seamless vessel from 99.998% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of use.

INVITATION

Some sounds cut through fog. This one does.

Andara doesn't soften edges or wrap you in warmth—it clarifies. The high C# rings through the upper body like a window thrown open, and what was scattered finds focus. Whether that's your thoughts before a presentation, your vision before a creative breakthrough, or simply the mental static of a too-full week, this bowl creates conditions for seeing clearly.

It's a 6-inch instrument, intimate enough to travel with you, potent enough to shift a room. The kind of bowl you reach for when you're ready to stop circling and start moving. When the old story has grown too small. When you need your sharpest self.
