ESSENCE

I am the blood that runs through stone. When you have given too much, when your edges have blurred into everyone else's needs, when you need to remember where you end and the world begins—I am the resin that says: this far, no further. This bowl does not lift you out of yourself. It seals you back into yourself, drawing a boundary of red earth around what is yours.

THE ELEMENT

Dragon's blood is a deep crimson tree resin that weeps from wounded bark—most famously from the dragon trees of Socotra and the Canary Islands, though related species grow across Asia and Latin America. When the tree is cut, it bleeds. That blood becomes medicine. Chemically complex, dragon's blood contains phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and resin acids that give it both its astringent character and its rich, sweet-sharp scent when burned.

For millennia, humans have turned to this resin when something precious needed guarding. The Guanche people of the Canary Islands used it in their mummification practices—sealing the threshold between worlds. Romans mixed it into varnish and medicine. Chinese herbalists applied it for wounds and blood stasis. In Western esoteric traditions, dragon's blood remains a classic altar resin for protection, banishing, and amplifying intention. The mythology speaks of slain dragons whose spilled blood soaked the earth and gave rise to these trees—strength transformed, violence becoming medicine.

When dragon's blood resin is infused into quartz crystal through Divine Bowls' proprietary process, its molecular structure integrates at the point of formation—not as a surface coating, but as part of what vibrates. The resin's protective signature is woven into every frequency the bowl produces. People often describe this bowl's tone as dense and grounding yet catalytic—like a protective cloak that allows deeper vulnerability. It meets you in the root and belly, in the places where fear lives and old stories about safety were written.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in D# at 622 Hz, a frequency that sits at the transition between the sacral and solar plexus chakras in the Western diatonic system. D# carries the energetic quality of breath, release, and transformation—the exhale that lets something finally go. At octave 5, this frequency vibrates through the head, throat, sinuses, and upper energetic field, creating sensation in the places where we hold tension from overthinking or unexpressed words.

When dragon's blood's boundary-keeping nature meets this releasing frequency, something interesting happens. The bowl creates conditions for protected release—a container strong enough to hold whatever needs to move. This isn't about forcing anything open. It's about sealing the edges so thoroughly that what's inside finally feels safe enough to shift.

THE TUNING

Tuned at concert pitch (A=440) at +5 cents, this bowl harmonizes with modern musical instruments and recorded music. This standard tuning makes it accessible and integrative—whether you're layering it with other instruments, playing alongside recorded tracks, or simply wanting a frequency foundation that feels familiar to the ear. The tuning sits right at center, neither pulling toward earth nor lifting toward sky, allowing dragon's blood's grounding intensity to anchor the experience.

THE SIZE

At 6 inches, this bowl produces octave 5 tones with short to medium sustain—meaning the sound speaks clearly, then releases, rather than lingering indefinitely. This creates a more active playing experience; you engage with the bowl repeatedly rather than striking once and waiting. The intimate volume makes it ideal for personal practice, close bodywork, travel, or any space where you want potent sound without overwhelming a room. Teachers find this size perfect for brief classroom transitions. Therapists appreciate how it fills a treatment room without dominating. At home, it's substantial enough to feel like a real instrument while remaining portable and personal. The compact size allows dragon's blood's dense, protective quality to express with concentrated intensity—nothing diffuse, nothing scattered.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you feel invaded—by other people's emotions, by environments that take more than they give, by your own unmetabolized experiences. It serves those moments when you've been scattered across a thousand obligations and need to remember your own edges. Play it at the start of your day if you know you'll be giving to others. Play it at the end of a draining interaction to reclaim your energy. Teachers might sound it before a challenging class to establish clear container. Parents might play it to help an anxious child feel the safety of boundaries. Teams might begin difficult conversations with its tone, creating protected space for honesty.

When you play, notice where in your body you feel the sound land. Dragon's blood often draws attention to the lower belly and root—the places where safety lives. You might place one hand on your abdomen while playing with the other, breathing slowly, feeling your own edges become more defined. There's no wrong way to work with this bowl. The invitation is simply to let its protective current remind you that having boundaries is not the same as being hard.

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 99.995% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of use.

INVITATION

I am the resin that weeps from wounded bark and becomes medicine. I don't ask if you're certified in anything. I ask if you've been giving too much. If your edges have blurred into everyone else's needs. If you've forgotten where you end and the world begins.

This bowl doesn't care whether you're opening a sound healing session or a team meeting. It doesn't distinguish between the parent trying to settle an anxious child at bedtime and the therapist holding space for grief. The frequency is the same. The invitation is the same: Come back to your own edges. Remember what's yours.

Not every bowl finds every person. But if you read this far, if something in the description made you pause—that's not random. Dragon's blood has been teaching humans about boundaries for thousands of years. It knows who needs it.

The bowl is here when you're ready.
