Pilgrimage is defined by Webster's dictionary as: 'a journey to a sacred place or shrine...a quest for the sacred'. For individuals in today's fragmented and fast-paced world, pilgrimage could be defined as a necessity for spiritual survival. There is a growing yearning to reconnect to the deeper soul of life and to meet one's more authentic and sacred self. Historically, the Grail Quest is a path traveled by countless pilgrims, seeking to find a way out of the Waste Land of 'life as usual'. In Grail legends, the Waste Land according to Joseph Campbell, is the place where the vitality, spontaneity and meaning of life has gone.

In La Queste del Saint Graal, there is the story of the brief visionary appearance of the Grail to King Arthur's Roundtable, yet it is covered with a cloth. Arthur's nephew Gawain proposes a vow that all the Knights go in pursuit of the Grail to behold it unveiled. That is our quest in the Pilgrimage of Magdalene and the Holy Grail, to unveil that which is pure, sacred and magically alive in each one of us.

Songaia Sound Pilgrimages
are life changing and magical and hold a vision for the greater good for every participant as well as serving our planet at this critical shift of the ages. We use clear heart-centered intention and sacred sound as the ancient alchemical formula for creating greater harmony for all beings.

Since 1992 we have been using sound as a way of communing with significant cosmic cycles and planetary alignments. As all ancient cultures knew, if we are in rhythm with the movements of the earth and heavens, we can increase life energy for all, and insure harmony in all realms. It is the rapid decline in the last century of our living close to these natural rhythms, that has caused such a degree of global chaos, confusion with our young, and increased violence.

On our July 1999 pilgrimage to sacred travel sites in England, we arranged to be within the inner circle of the great stones of Stonehenge on the morning of the full moon eclipse (July 28th) and planetary cross alignment. With our circle holding a vision of peace on earth and love to all beings, we chanted in the tones corresponding to the positions of the planets as they formed a cross in the heavens. The harmonics created by our voices and the wind through the harp carried out to the four directions, rising up and flowing deep into the earth, sounding our prayers and magnified many fold by the power of place. Observers saw a great column of light formed in Stonehenge and the dancing of the elemental guardians in celebration.

The specific tones for the July 28 and August 11 planetary crosses are drawn from the ancient system of correlating the constellations with specific frequencies, and forms the basis for the Songaia system of sound therapy. In this case, E-Leo, A#- Aquarius, C#-Taurus and G- Scorpio. For the August 11 grand cross eclipse, the sun and moon are conjunct in Leo, Neptune and Uranus will be opposing in Aquarius, Jupiter and Saturn squared in Taurus and Chiron and mars squared in Scorpio. This pattern forms a great cosmic wheel that is turning to move us into a new millennium and a new dimension of consciousness.


Planetary Cross Toning / Color Wheel
Planetary Cross Toning / Color Wheel

One may simply tone the specific tones using the vowel sounds, overtone chants or use a mantra of your choice for each tone. This not only supports greater harmony and balance within the individual, but assists in the vision of rebirth for our planet.

The mantras we have been using for each of the four directions of the cross are as follows:


C# (Taurus) GATE GATE PARA GATE PARA SAM GATE BODHI SVAHA
The Heart of Perfect Wisdom Buddhist heart sutra, meaning gone, gone, gone beyond the beyond, hail to the awakened one!

G (Scorpio) OM AH HUM VAJRA GURU PADME SIDDHI HUM
Tibetan mantra given to us by Bardor Rinpoche of the Karma Kaghu lineage the night before our April 99 journey to Avalon as an important mantra for protection and blessings at this time.

E (Leo) OM NAMA SHIVAYA
Sanskrit mantra honoring the glory of creation given by Swami Muktananda in 1971

A# (Aquarius) OM BENZRA SATO HUM
From the Tibetan Vajra Satva mantra of purification (the short version of the 100 syllable form)

When toning the mantras, feel an open heart and a clear intention for the good of all sentient beings. We indeed each make a difference.

After our Stonehenge chants and prayers, we joined a group that was gathered at Avebury in the south circle for a meditation and again, the chants and harp harmonics rose up to such a grand chorus, that all were deeply moved. That evening, in full view of where our circle had been gathered, the following crop circle photographed by Peter Sorensen, appeared in the Avebury stone avenue. The interactive nature of the formations is extraordinary.

The following crop circle photos were taken by Steve Alexander and were experienced by our July 99 journey participants. Notice the cross formed by the Windmill Hill (Avebury) formation, and looking rather like a computer chip....reprogramming the patterns. The nine-pointed star formation of this crop circle, was definitely seeming to harmonize and restructure us on a very deep level as we meditated in the center of the swirled wheat.
