Dear Judson, Maybe I can give a few examples of resonance and how it can affect our lives in simple and dramatic ways. From this I think it will follow that it also affects our lives in more complex and less clearcut or dramatic ways. Some singers have been known to take a crystal wineglass and ting it with their fingernail to ascertain the musical note it vibrates or is resonant to. Then they will sing that note with such force it vibrates the glass so strongly it shatters. Or you can take a violin string tuned to a nearby violin string and saw your bow across the one and see the other vibrate in resonance. Imagine a bell with clapper. The clapper hits the bell in only one spot, introducing active vibration in the bell. Voila! The whole bell rings in resonance to this point strike. Imagine then there is a hydrogen atom, a lone proton with an electron held in its attraction. A photon impinges on the orbitals of the electron and imparts its energy at one level, making the electron "ring" or vibrate so strongly throughout that orbital that the electron jumps up to the next orbital. Around a hydrogen atom the configuration of the orbitals is spherical. Within any given sphere forming the orbital the wave nature of the electron comes around and wavecrest meets wavecrest, trough meets trough, and the electron resonates at that level, its wave pattern reinforcing itself. The waves will not meet and reinforce themselves again for a considerable distance away from the nucleus until they reach the next higher resonance level. And if the electron jumps from a lower to a higher level it has to absorb enegry (photons) of a certain wavelength to reach the next resonant level. If it falls back down to a lower level it will emit photons of a certain wavelength in doing so. Thus we have an explanation of hydrogen's emission and absorption spectra, which are specific patterns of lines across a wide band of wavelengths. >From hydrogen it gets quite complex, with helium (two electrons), lithium (3), etc. on up the periodic table, and of course with the combination of the many elements. Carbon chemistry is particularly complex, and silica, germanium, tin and lead are all in the carbon family so they enter into many of the same chemical relationships with other elements as carbon. However, it is worth considering what happens to our world around us when we introduce certain patterns of vibration. The chemistry of the world around us will tend to organize its relationships in accordance with those patterns. The world around us is constantly changing along its time lines. So the idea of a stream of changing nature phenomena is important. This clearly comes into play with air and water dynamics where the patterns of flow can be markedly affected by the minutest changes at virtual points. Although the change introduced is infinitessimal, downstream the effect is huge. Thus a few drops of a homeopathic potency of 30c Arsenicum album can relieve acute ptomaine poisoning at the seafood bar in just minutes--though it does take a few minutes for full effect. This is essentially the same idea with applying Steiner's agricultural remedies. It just takes a wee bit to have profound effects. With a powerful induction coil (my field broadcasters have a two inch diameter coil two foot long with 86 turns in both the top section, for the atmosphere, and the bottom section, for the soil) the effect is more than infinitessimal and is continuous over time so that even something as resistant to change as the soil, plants and animals can be affected gradually but markedly. But for the effect to be powerful the induction field must be anchored so it resonates right on top of itself all the time. You might think of it as being like a web. Of what effect would a spider's web be if it was not anchored anywhere? But anchor it and the field effect is stable and reinforces itself. This is what the hydrogen nucleus does is it anchors the electron around it so it forms orbitals. Likewise the sun anchors the planets that orbit it, and the galactic center anchors the stars whirling around in its spiral clutches, etc. Well, I hope this helps. I'm out of time. Back to work growing food. Best, Hugh Lovel Visit our website at: www.unionag.org
