ESSENCE
I am the green that lives between forest floor and first light—soft enough to yield, strong enough to hold. When you arrive tired of performing, when the gap between who you show the world and who you actually are has grown too wide, I create conditions for your own unfolding. This bowl holds Arizona's metamorphic memory crystallized within quartz walls, sounding at an uplifting frequency that invites authenticity without rushing it.
THE ELEMENT
Devalite is a metamorphic rock born where water met fire deep in Arizona's earth, primarily composed of serpentine mixed with augite. Serpentine contributes magnesium-rich silicate structure; augite adds calcium, magnesium, and iron. The result is a stone with bright apple-green to yellow-green hues, streaked with dark augite inclusions, and a smooth, waxy surface that invites touch without demanding it. Mohs hardness around 3-4 means it yields slightly under pressure—a physical quality that mirrors its energetic invitation.
Ancient peoples recognized serpentine-rich stones for their connection to transformation. Around 3000 BCE, Egyptians carved serpentine into amulets of protection and rebirth. Mesoamerican cultures shaped it into ritual artifacts symbolizing earth fertility. The snake-skin associations of serpentine inform modern views of shedding what no longer serves—becoming something new while honoring what came before. Traditional Chinese Medicine uses serpentine to harmonize heart and lung meridians, promoting emotional flow.
When you work with Devalite, you're working with a companion for authentic emotional growth. This element supports heart-centered release at earth's patient pace—not forcing breakthroughs, but creating conditions for what wants to move through you. Divine Bowls' proprietary process integrates Devalite at the molecular level during formation, so its unique microstructure becomes part of the quartz itself. That structure is what vibrates, carrying the stone's grounding warmth into every tone.
THE FREQUENCY
This bowl sounds in C# at 280 Hz, resonating with the Root/Sacral transition in the Western diatonic system. C# carries the energetic quality of transition, awakening, and emergence—the sharp note that lives between established tones, creating space for what's becoming. This frequency vibrates through your torso, chest cavity, heart, lungs, and core, meeting the body where emotional holding often lives.
When Devalite's patient, earth-paced energy meets this uplifting C# frequency, something particular happens. The stone's grounding quality prevents the activation from becoming unmoored, while the frequency's brightness prevents the grounding from becoming stagnation. People often notice a sense of gentle opening—the heart softening without losing its center, old patterns releasing without drama. The +15 cents uplift adds a quality of quiet optimism, like the first warmth of spring reaching soil that's been waiting.
THE TUNING
This bowl resonates at 280 Hz, placing it in our C=528 Tuning range—its frequency sits above concert pitch, producing a brighter, more energizing quality.
C=528 Tuning bowls like this one align with instruments tuned so that C=528 Hz, known as the "Love Frequency" in Solfeggio tradition. This brighter tuning is associated with heart-opening qualities and joyful expansion. These frequencies are valued for clearing stagnation, stimulating movement, enhancing mental clarity, and bringing fresh energy to spaces or states that have become stuck.
(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 8 inches, this bowl produces Octave 4 tones with medium-long sustain—each strike blooms fully, giving you time to breathe into the sound before it fades. The full, projecting volume fills a room without overwhelming it, making this size ideal for yoga studios, therapy rooms, classrooms, or living spaces where you want presence without domination. Portable enough for travel yet substantial enough for group work, an 8-inch bowl bridges personal practice and shared experience. This size allows Devalite's grounding warmth to express with depth and reach, while the Octave 4 resonance naturally targets the chest, heart, lungs, and core—where emotional holding often lives.
WORKING WITH THIS BOWL
Reach for this bowl when something needs to move. Maybe it's the end of a long week and you're still carrying tension you can't name. Maybe you're preparing for a difficult conversation, or helping students settle after lunch, or opening a team meeting that needs honest participation. Play it slowly at first—let the tone establish itself before you add more. Notice what softens.
You don't need training to work with this bowl. Strike it once and breathe. That's enough. Over time, you might explore circling the rim for sustained tone, or playing it at transitions—morning to workday, workday to evening, waking to sleeping. Athletes use bowls like this before competition to find calm confidence. Parents play them during homework time to shift household energy. Writers strike them to break through blocks. The bowl doesn't ask what you're using it for. It simply sounds.
