Sacred Geometry
Sacred geometry involves sacred universal patterns used in the design of everything in our reality, most often seen in sacred architecture and sacred art. The basic belief is that geometry and mathematical ratios, harmonics and proportion are also found in music, and light.
The discovery of the relationship of geometry and mathematics to music within the Classical Period is attributed to Pythagoras. Pythagoreans believed that this gave music powers of healing, as it could "harmonize" the out-of-balance body, and this belief has been revived in modern times. A contemporary usage of the term sacred geometry describes geometric and mathematical patterns as arising directly from natural principles. Some of the most prevalent traditional geometric forms ascribed to sacred geometry include the sine wave, the sphere, the vesica pisces, 5 platonic solids, the torus (donut), the tesseract (4-dimensional cube), and the merkaba (2 oppositely oriented and interpenetrating tetrahedrons), and the golden spiral/ratio. The golden ratio is still used frequently in art and design, suggesting a natural balance between symmetry and asymmetry. All sacred geometrical shapes are within the Flower of life symbol. This symbol reflected in 3D form is called the Hologram of love; a sacred sphere. It is the sacred symbol of ever continuous manifestation of unconditional love. Our DNA, RNA are born with this holographic pattern. The finest particle of our atomic cell structure had this pattern within it. |
It is considered foundational to building sacred structures such as temples, mosques, megaliths, monuments and churches; sacred spaces such as altars, meeting places such as sacred groves, village greens and holy wells and the creation of religious art, iconography and using "divine" proportions.
