What is the Black Moon frequency?
123.02 Hz is known in astrology as the Black Moon, or Lilith, frequency: the point where the Moon is farthest from the Earth. The tradition holds that this pitch resonates with inner layers that rarely surface in everyday life. You may find it a useful companion in meditation or self-reflection work.
Why a weighted tuning fork?
The weights at the ends of the two prongs make the fork felt clearly on the physical level: placed by its stem on the skin, it transmits a defined deeper vibration. The sound is softer than the unweighted version but lasts longer and is more diffused. Many people use it in relaxing and calming work, near the ears or on points of the body.
Accuracy and material
The fork is made of aluminium and tuned to 123.02 Hz within ±0.25%. The 21 cm length and the weight of around 130 g make it easy to hold. The shipment includes a blue velvet pouch that protects the surface from scratches and offers comfortable storage.
How to strike and use it
Strike the fork with a rubber or soft mallet, or gently on the edge of your palm. Do not strike it against a hard surface, as that can affect accuracy. Place the vibrating stem on the skin, or lift it near your ears. Many people use it together with planetary tuning fork sets; this piece is a natural addition to such sets.
Care and storage
Store the fork in its blue velvet pouch in a dry place. For cleaning a soft dry cloth is enough; no solvent is needed and solvents are best avoided. Do not drop the fork, as a fall can affect tuning accuracy. With proper care the fork keeps its accurate tone for years.
