Peter Sterling Brings Harp Magic and UFO Sightings from Sedona's Vortexes

Fresh from a four-hour land excursion through Sedona's vortexes, Grammy-nominated harpist Peter Sterling arrived straight from his Jeep to offer something rare: celestial music learned directly from the angels, paired with firsthand accounts of unusual lights dancing above the red rock canyons. It's a convergence of the mystical and the practical, delivered by someone who has spent three decades translating the silence of sacred land into sound.

"I made contact with the angels," Sterling explains of his shamanic journey into Sedona's backcountry 30 years ago. "I heard the celestial music as I was meditating in the silence of the canyons... going deep into the silence, it's when my inner hearing opened up." What emerged was a 28-year career producing music that consistently tops international new age charts, including his latest album Sanctuary of Light, a Grammy contender created specifically "to help people rise up into the light and ascend" through times of transformation.

What Makes the Harp an Ascension Tool?

Sterling describes the harp as carrying frequencies unlike any other instrument — "a very pure harmonic tone" used in healing temples of ancient civilizations for millennia. His approach isn't about performance; it's transmission. "My angels go into your angels," he tells participants before beginning an improvisation. "I'm going to have a little angel party here for a few moments."

The session opens with Sterling inviting everyone to "look up into your third eye... see the golden light" as his fingers move across the strings. His stated intention: to open the "third ear" — the inner hearing necessary for receiving guidance from higher self and angelic realms. Watch the full performance and meditation to experience how he weaves sound and energetic transmission.

What's Happening in Sedona's Skies?

Between harp improvisations, Sterling delivers what he calls "an update from Sedona" — and it's not your typical tour guide report. Using Generation 3 Night Vision Goggles on UFO nighttime tours, he's been documenting significant celestial activity. Two weeks prior, a moving light that clients initially mistook for a satellite "came directly above us where it stopped within about a minute... a solid, bright star, almost like Venus."

What happened next verges on contact: "We were guided to lay on our backs on the red rocks... we perceived rainbow light kind of spiraling down from this bright light in the sky." The light stayed visible for hours. A week later, a similar phenomenon appeared next to the crescent moon, performing an unusual sequence: moving, blacking out completely, powering back on "really bright, not flashing at all," then slowly dimming away.

Most striking was an encounter with Alan Steinfeld of New Realities, watching lights communicate "in a very unusual pattern of almost like flashing Morse code. It wasn't like a regular plane that was consistent." Sterling's observation: "A lot of activity going on here in Sedona, in the galactic Stargate portal."

How Do You Connect With Your Higher Self?

The core teaching Sterling offers comes from ascended master traditions — a specific meditation practice for accessing what he calls the "I Am Presence" or rainbow body of light. His instruction is precise: center in the heart, move attention to the third eye (Ajna center), then bring awareness to the crown chakra. "We have a central pillar of light and we can ascend up the central pillar of light right at the top of our head."

The practice involves using breath and intention to "look up with your inner vision... right at the top of your head," then floating "right out the top of my head and go right up the central pillar" to meet the soul star. But connection isn't the endpoint — embodiment is. "Allow your higher self to descend, to make a descent and come all the way down the central channel, all the way into your body and anchor that energy."

Sterling frames this as the essential work of lightworkers and starseeds: "To fully embody our divine self into the flesh, to make that sacred union... we're like a bridge and we're pulling and merging the two dimensions." He references the 144,000 rainbow warriors — "the awakened ones who will vibrate to that harmonic frequency. That's all we need in order to shift the planetary consciousness."

As the session closes, Sterling spirals participants out with another harp improvisation, communing with "our fifth dimensional Merkaba rainbow body of light." His parting guidance points to two videos on his website: "Divine Reflection," which visualizes everything he just taught, and "Seventh Heaven," described as a light body activation journey. For those seeking practical tools for navigating transformation through sound and inner vision, this intimate session offers both the music and the map.
