We all know that the Calm app will always have our backs when it comes to relaxing soundscapes that put us in the mood to dream, and recently, the app has taken its content to new heights with the announcement that Calm has collaborated with artist, composer and astrologer WATA. Together, they are launching new, monthly sound baths on Calm inspired by each New Moon for all the astrology lovers.
The 12 part New Moon series launched this week with the new moon in Cancer, and is set to drop each month for the next 12 months. The 60-minute tracks feature an intro describing the meaning of each new moon and the inspiration behind the sound bath. WATA uses vocal orchestration and inspiration from ancient sound healing traditions to create original soundscapes and rhythms that touch the heart and soothe the mind. Especially good news for all of us experiencing an absolutely rattling lockdown in NSW.
The partnership welcomes a new ushering in of meditation, involving soundscapes with relaxation and healing capabilities. WATA seeks to bring a new sound to the world with a genre-bending take on New Age meditation music, while creating a safe space for both curious listeners and experienced meditators alike.
"I am super excited to announce that my #NewMooninCancer sound bath is officially live on @calm . I’ve been working for 6 months towards this day and I’m so happy it’s finally here." WATA wrote on Instagram, announcing the news of the collaboration.
If you find yourself in need of a moment of reprieve this month, this could be the content for you. Especially if it means we'll be learning about each new moon as we settle in. As a welcome present, WATA has arranged for new listeners to receive 40% off a yearly subscription. See you in our dreams.
