Hernandez presents music not merely as sound, but as a metaphysical language rooted in number, light, memory, and the soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume develops the concept of the Hermetic Wave: a symbolic and musical model that links the intervals of the scale with the movements of light, the structure of the spheres, the four virtues, the cycles of the day, and the inner transformation of the musician. Through the exegesis of Plato, Genesis, the Anima Mundi, the Greek modes, the planetary spheres, and the practical use of music as rite, the work proposes a renewed understanding of music as a path of knowledge and spiritual discipline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFar from being a conventional study of music theory, this treatise is written for those who seek the deeper foundations of harmony: musicians, philosophers, hermeticists, astrologers, and readers drawn to the ancient idea of the music of the spheres.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAs the heavens sound, so the earth sounds.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47892852506775,"sku":"9798196132940","price":1656.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798196132940.webp?v=1781189433","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/hermetic-music-vol-ii-exegesis-of-the-timaeus-and-the-hermetic-wave-9798196132940","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
