There are MANY theories for 432. In respectable theories form Joseph Cambell, all the way to Sitchin. But I've never heard it used for musical
frequencies. I must say I am quite intrigued.
I know as a guitarist, I've always hated the 440 tone, so I tuned a whole step down, as it seemed more...natural to me. I've read the native
americans tuned their instruments near to what we now call 'F#'. I've also read that the Pryamid of Giza and the earth's frequencies are either
octaves or harmonics near 'F#'.
With that said, if the REAL note of 'A' should be 432, and you based your tonic of the earth's something just below F#, that would make 'A' a
minor 3rd. What if you took that into consideration, and realize the minor 3rd is used in conjunction with the so called Diabolus in Music (Devil's
Chord, so to speak), the flattened 5th, other wise known as Diminished. Perhaps that's perfect harmony of nature, and that's why the Catholic Church
deemed it satanic, and a heresy to play it, because it could unlock the mind.
Take into consideration now classical music, especially Bach, it is full of diminished scales. I know a lot of people that hate the diminished scale
and chords, because it makes them feel uneasy. But I think they are feel uneasy, because they are fighting the natural animal tendency within. Perhaps
that is why Dimished scales are mainly used to convey emotion in genres like classical, metal, and mid-eastern music, and all other forms of 'popular
music' tend to steer clear of it.
This is just coming to me right now, what you've written has indeed sparked an interest, and I will investigate further into this. Perhaps a 432
tonic diminished chord will unlock a harmonic frequency of some kind. Perhaps ancient levitation, as some reports from tibet have said occurs when
numerous large horns are played.
I'll be back!
