This Epidote crystal singing bowl sounds in A# at 239 Hz, resonating at the transition between Third Eye and Crown chakras while grounding through the lower body and pelvis. Epidote supports the release of outgrown patterns and the steady work of personal transformation. When this metamorphic mineral meets an Uplift frequency, the result is activation that doesn't bypass—bright, awakening energy channeled through the patient wisdom of earth's own transformation process.

BEST FOR

• Releasing limiting beliefs and outgrown emotional patterns
• Those navigating major life transitions—career, relationship, identity shifts
• Sound healers supporting clients through deep release work
• Executives and leaders shedding old management styles or company cultures

• Athletes releasing performance blocks or mental barriers
• Anyone ready to compost what no longer serves into fuel for growth

ESSENCE

I am the green that emerges when pressure becomes transformation rather than destruction. When you've been carrying patterns that no longer fit—the people-pleasing, the inherited beliefs, the versions of yourself you've outgrown—I am the steady presence that says: you can set this down now. I don't rush the process. I simply hold the frequency of metamorphosis long enough for you to feel into what's ready to release, and what's ready to grow in its place.

THE ELEMENT

Epidote is a calcium aluminum iron silicate mineral, its distinctive pistachio-to-forest green coloration determined by iron content within its crystalline structure. This metamorphic mineral forms under significant heat and pressure—conditions that transform existing rock into something entirely new. Found in the European Alps, Pakistan's mountain ranges, and across the American landscape from Alaska to Wisconsin, Epidote emerges in the spaces where geological change is most active. Its very name comes from the Greek "epidosis," meaning "increase" or "addition"—a reference to the way its crystals seem to grow and expand.

What makes Epidote remarkable is its origin story: it forms when other minerals break down and reconstitute under pressure. This isn't destruction—it's transmutation. The mineral carries the energetic signature of that process, which is why traditions across cultures associate it with personal transformation, the release of limiting patterns, and the patient work of becoming.

When Epidote 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. The mineral's transformative signature weaves through every frequency the bowl produces. When you work with this bowl, you're working with earth's own proof that pressure, given enough time and the right conditions, doesn't break—it rebuilds.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in A# at 239 Hz, resonating at the threshold between Third Eye and Crown chakras—the territory where insight meets transcendence. The A# frequency carries an energetic quality of cosmic awareness and transcendent knowing, yet this particular bowl grounds that elevated consciousness through the lower body, pelvis, and sitting bones. It's an unusual combination: the note reaches upward while the octave anchors downward.

When Epidote's transformative energy meets this frequency, something interesting happens. The mineral's patient, earth-rooted wisdom tempers the transcendent quality of A#, creating conditions for insight that stays embodied rather than floating away. People often report a sense of clarity about what needs to change—not as abstract knowing, but as felt recognition in the body. The frequency illuminates; the element grounds the illumination into actionable awareness.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 239 Hz. Using A=440 as reference, it plays A#+47 cents. (Using A=432 as reference, this same frequency is B-25 cents.)

This bowl is categorized as Uplift Tuning because its frequency falls above the C=528 range, producing a brighter, more energizing quality. These frequencies have an awakening character—sounds that enliven rather than sedate. For Epidote specifically, this Uplift quality serves the element's transformative nature well: bright enough to illuminate what needs releasing, activating enough to catalyze movement, yet grounded by the mineral's patient earth energy. The combination creates sound that clears stagnation without overwhelming the nervous system.

(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 9 inches, this bowl produces Octave 3 tones with long, sustained resonance—sound that continues to develop and deepen well after the mallet leaves the rim. The full, rich volume fills group spaces easily while remaining appropriate for personal use in living rooms, offices, or treatment rooms. This size allows Epidote's steady, patient energy to unfold gradually, giving the listener time to settle into the transformative frequency rather than being rushed through it.

The lower-body resonance of Octave 3 creates an interesting dialogue with Epidote's heart-chakra associations. Sound enters through the pelvis and foundation while the mineral's energy works through the emotional center—grounding and opening simultaneously. For group settings, workshops, or family spaces where multiple people will receive the sound, this size ensures everyone in the room experiences the full expression of the bowl's voice.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you sense you're ready to look at something you've been avoiding—a pattern, a belief, a way of being that's grown too small. This isn't the bowl for bypassing difficult emotions; it's the bowl for composting them into something that can nourish new growth. Play it at the beginning of a journaling session when you're ready to write the truth. Sound it before a difficult conversation where you need to release your grip on being right. Use it during team transitions when old company culture needs to make way for new vision.

To work with this bowl, find a comfortable seated position where your sitting bones connect firmly with your surface. Strike or rim the bowl and let the sound wash through your lower body first—notice where it settles, where it meets resistance. As the tone sustains, bring attention to your heart space. What feels ready to release? What pattern has you exhausted from carrying it? You don't need to force answers. Epidote's gift is patience; it will hold the question steady while you feel your way toward recognition.

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 transformation.

INVITATION

You've read about metamorphosis and pressure, transformation and release. You know the geology now. But here's what the description can't tell you: whether this particular frequency—this specific marriage of Epidote's patient earth wisdom and A#'s transcendent brightness—is the one your nervous system has been asking for.

Not every bowl finds every person. Some sounds arrive too soft when you need activation. Some arrive too bright when you need grounding. This one does both—illuminates what's ready to shift while keeping you rooted enough to actually do something about it. The 9" size means it fills a room (your classroom, your office, your treatment space, your living room at dawn) without overwhelming it. The Uplift frequency means it won't let you stay comfortable in old patterns, but Epidote's presence means it won't rush you through the discomfort either.

If you've been carrying something that no longer fits—a way of being, a belief about yourself, a version of who you thought you had to be—and you're finally, quietly ready to set it down: this bowl holds that frequency steady. It doesn't do the work for you. It just makes the conditions right for your own transformation to become possible.

The bowl is here. So are you. Trust what brought you this far.
