Blavatsky, H. P. (Helena Petrovna)
To the five senses at present the property of mankind two more on this globe are to be added. The sixth sense is the psychic sense of colour. The seventh is that of spiritual sound. In the second instruction, the corrected rates of vibration for the seven primary colours and their modulations are given. Inspecting these, it appears that each colour differs from the proceeding one by a step of 42, or 6 × 7.
462 Red + 42 = 504
504 Orange + 42 = 546
546 Yellow + 42 = 588
588 Green + 42 = 630
630 Blue + 42 = 672
672 Indigo + 42 = 714
714 Violet + 42 = 756
756 Red
Carrying the process backward, and subtracting 42, we find that the first or ground colour is green, for this globe.
—— Green
42 Blue
84 Indigo
126 Violet (end of First semi-octave)
168 Red (start of Second octave)
210 Orange
252 Yellow
294 Green
336 Blue
378 Indigo
420 Violet
462 Red
The second and fourth octaves would be heat and actinic rays, and are invisible to our present perception.
The seventh sense is that of spiritual sound; and, since the vibrations of the sixth progress by steps of 6 × 7, those of the seventh progress by steps of 7 × 7. This is their table:
—— Fa ... Green Sound (start of First semi-octave)
49 Sol ... Blue
98 La ... Indigo
147 Si ... Violet
196 Do ... Red
245 Re ... Orange (start of Second Octave)
294 Mi ... Yellow
343 Fa ... Green
392 Sol ... Blue
441 La ... Indigo
490 Si ... Violet
539 Do ... Red
Etc., etc.
The fifth sense is in our possession: it is possibly that of geometrical form, and its steps of progression would be 5 × 7, or 35.
The fourth sense is that of physical hearing, music, and its progressions are 28, or 4 × 7. The truth of this is demonstrated by the fact that it is in accord with the theories of Science as to the vibrations of musical notes. Our scale is as follows:
—, 28, 56, 84, 112, 140, 168, 196, 224, 252, 280, 308, 336, 364, 392, 420, 448, 476, 504, 532, 560, 588, 616, 644, 672, 700.
