Musica Universalis

In the last few years I have become more and more fascinated and perhaps a bit obsessed with all things related to the Music of the Spheres. This obsession was prompted by a dream I had about a decade ago in which I was lying in a bed in a room with no ceiling as it was open to the universe. Sparing  details here , in short I was given some hand held objects which were directly connected to the stars . When they moved in my hands I could hear the tones of the stars and move the formations of the constellations. 
 Just over two years ago , I  decided that it was once and for all time to make this dream into a performance piece.
The more I thought about the dream and visualized the look of it and what it would entail , the process of the work and possibilities became more complex. I began gobbling up information on geometry which was always a horrible subject for me in school as were mathematics in general ( still  difficult ) but just like any other subject becomes easier to understand when applied to something which interests me.  The subject of sacred geometry and it's inherent relationship with all that exists .
The cosmos , music , movement and all the elements are imbibed with mathematics-Good Heavens!
I have been trying to understand Harmonics , musical scales , but my not so linear brain is still perplexed by graphs which I do happen find so very interesting though it stills hurts my brain.
I have rediscovered Holsts symphony The Planets which I was introduced in my earlier years by Tomita .
An almost irritating symphony to listen to , it is more "thinking music" , like much of Noise or Experimental music , it is not something the listener finds pleasurable or relaxing , it requires thinking .
The musical composition by Holst was based on the actual tones produced by the planets themselves which were discovered by Pythagoras and later delved into more deeply by Johannas Kepler.
See the attached article.
Benjamin Franklin played similar compositions on his Glass Harp or Glass Harmonica ,mainly compositions by Bach.More on the subject later.
