Energy And The Natural Beauty of Sacred Geometry

This is Part 2 of my reporting on my recent trip to the Santa Cruz Area. You can read about my spiritual adventure at a Buddhist retreat center in Part One.

Sacred Geometry has been a life-long passion of mine. My interest for what I call the Divine Design was ignited around age 10 when my aunt Roberte, a scientific researcher for the French government, created a set of custom slides for me to observe with my new microscope. The world I discovered under the enlarging lens fascinated me and I spent hours watching micro-organisms move around. The variety of shapes those amoeba, paramecia, bacteria and plant cells embodied opened up my mind to the inner workings of Life, while looking at the small intricacies of the natural world offered me a deep understanding of the inter-connectedness of all living beings.

The awareness of the Sacred Architecture of nature allows us to perceive the spiritual dimension of our physical reality. When one dives deeper into the subject and learns that there are mathematical formulas that underly all of Creation, a sense of awe and wonder takes over. In my case, this translated into an exploration that, beyond seeking to merely satisfy my curiosity, nourished my heart and provided an abundant source of creative inspiration. Sacred Geometry is truly the foundation for the visual language of all the art I generate and the reason behind my love of patterns.

Every time I find myself immersed in the natural world, I am once again the innocent child of my youth, mesmerized by the magical manifestation of the cosmic blueprint. Using the photo lens of my iPhone as a portal into the microcosmic dimension, I enter a realm where I seem to access answers to my existential ponderings, and where the beauty of the mineral and animal worlds emanates an energy that is evidence of a Divine Order. A space beyond time that I never tire of visiting, always discovering, out there, new aspects of my inner being.

A Brief Overview Of Some Sacred Geometry Shapes

Spheres and Explosions

To the Ancient Greeks, the circle and the sphere were perfect symbols of the Divine, their never ending loop representing Oneness. These shapes radiate from a center point and are very efficient as they present the least surface area for the most volume, while uniformly distributing energy. In an explosive pattern, the radiating lines provide the shortest possible flow path away from the core. A soap bubble, the petals of a flower, the tentacles of a sea anemone, stars, the cross section of a kiwi fruit, you can now observe them with new eyes.

Branching and Network

These patterns often form where fluid flows from a central point to cover a large area, or vice-versa, while moving along the shortest possible distance: trees and branches, stems and leaves and veins, river systems flowing from rain drops to streams ending in oceans, blood flow in and arteries… Distributing liquids and energy through matter or over the surface of the earth, to deliver them where needed, without deperdition in the process, this is natural intelligence at its finest.

Flowers and Spirals

Some flowers grow in the pattern of a spiral. This can be seen in the design of a blossom or the coiling of several blossoms along a common stem. A spider’s web, an agave plant, roses, the shell of a snail or the helix of a nautilus. These all reflect the process of organic growth through repetition. Spirals are also commonly observed in tendrils, horns, pineapples or the heart of a sunflower. This arrangement is nature’s way of filling space most efficiently. The magick becomes obvious when you learn that this natural pattern can always be reduced to a series of numbers called the Fibonacci Series (named after Leonardo Bonacci, "the most talented Western mathematician of the Middle Ages"). In this sequence, each number is equal to the sum of the preceding two numbers: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, etc.

The Animal Kingdom

The patterns on the fur of a fawn, the bark of a tree, a mosquito hitching a ride on the back of a banana slug, everything alive is connected to everything else. It is all made up of an invisible energy and the fractals that compose the physical world- a system that can elicit deep admiration for its perfect mastery. All manmade creations that demonstrate harmony of form and beauty of proportions are built according to natural principles of geometry, such as the Golden Section, which can be detected in the architecture of holy buildings like cathedrals.

Flow of Energy - Decay, Shadow, Reflection

You couldn’t pull a thread of the tapestry of Life without unraveling the whole divine masterpiece. The hermetic principle of As Above So Below, when applied to the observation of natural occurrences, validates this idea. The infinitesimal world is a refection the interplay of universes. The cycles of Life and Death never cease their momentum as decay constantly transforms all living matter from one state of being into the other. Noticing Light and Shadow in nature brings one back to the self and the way our own darkness is revealed by the illumination of consciousness. Stillness of the mind allows us to pay attention to what truly is, and become able to discern material illusion from reality of spirit. Nature is a generous mirror for self-enquiry, and a continual source of wisdom.

Magnetic Field and Aura

All that is alive emanates a field of energy that is another form of expression of the Divine Design. The human body generates, and is surrounded by, an aura of light that can be “read” to evaluate the quality of the life force flowing through the person. The inside of an apple or a pumpkin cut in half reveals the pattern of a torus, which is the shape of the human magnetic field.

The human heart has its own version of such a force field, with the power to attract others who radiate the same frequency. Spending time in the presence of majestic beings such as redwoods helps us attune to the peace of our own heart. Energy always travels from high to low, a principle called entrainment. While in the company of high vibrational living beings, we are positively affected by their magnetic field.

Seeking to purify our own energy by forest bathing, diving into ocean waves, sitting in quiet meditation and feeding our body pure food and water- all these choices have wonderful effect on our health. And they also support us in clearing the channel of communication between our spiritual and physical selves, allowing us to receive clear guidance, elevate our light quotient and literally en-light-en us.

Sacred Geometry is not only evident in the physical world, but also in music and its harmonic scales and octaves. To the curious explorer of Creation, magical revelations are ongoing, as the vibrations of the Original Sound reverberate across universes, rippling out from heart to heart, infinitely. A true delight of never ending inspiration for the creative seeker, as Leonardo Da Vinci so prolifically demonstrated!

I hope this exposé, although non extensive, has opened you up to the magick that lies just below our mundane level of attention. If you enjoyed the subject of Sacred Geometry, take a look at this slide show. Created from photos taken during a workshop I taught about printing patterns on textiles using found objects, it showcases a brief presentation on Sacred Geometry. I also discussed here the triangle shape and its power to help us make conscious choices. And make sure to read Part One of this article and visit the beautiful land that inspired this writing!

The Third Option

This is going to be quick. Because it is true. And therefore simple. And then of course, beautiful. Of the type of higher realm beauty that is seen with the Eye of the Heart. This truth is universal but only accessible by the mind that is ready to move beyond ordinary thinking and open up to divine intelligence.

There it is. Expressed it in a variety of ways, all meaning the same thing:

There is This or That. And there is This-And-That.

There is Duality, and there is Trinity.

There is Male and Female, and there is Wholeness.

There is Father and Mother, and there is The Child.

There is Right and Wrong, and there is Truth.

There is Oppositional Polarity and there is Unity.

There is Thesis and Antithesis, and there is Synthesis.

There is the Father and the Son, and there is the Holy Spirit.

There is You and Me and there is We.

There is Human or Divine, and there is The New Human. 

There is Head or Heart, and there is Living from the Heart.

That’s it. I am simply stating a fact. For those with eyes to see and ears to hear.

This Truth of The Third exists right now on 5D Earth.

Where minds are no longer at war but come together to birth soulutions.

Where Head and Heart are no longer in oppositional conflict but work together, the Head having realized the wise intelligence of the Heart and the Heart lovingly guiding the Head into doing what it does so marvelously well: think things through.

Many on Earth are living this truth today. Many more are accessing it everyday. Many many more will join in very soon, and begin living from their Heart, beyond the illusion of duality.

I call this way of living, Heart Magick, and I call forth those who know themselves as architect of the New Earth, constructing the new paradigm with their higher, heart-powered thinking. Together we form the Heart Magick Tribe. Together, as One, hearts forward, we are creating a brand new reality, grounded in Unity. And in Love, Joy, Creativity, Health, Abundance, and above all, in Peace.

The simple intention of inviting in the energy of The Third opens up a passageway for Grace/Love/Divine/Magick to come through, that Force that helps us rise above our conflicted humanity and resolve seemingly impossible issues by accessing the frequency of Miracles.

My son, now thirteen, used to say when he was about 5 and learning about geometry, that the Triangle is the strongest shape, because each side both leans upon and supports the other two. He would also call our family unit, The Trio Tribe. He would share memories of being an angel flying over the Egyptian pyramids. In the innocence of his early time on earth, still very connected to the realm he had come from, he was able to clearly see and expressed divine truth.

We are all tethered to the realm of the soul, and as we cultivate our relationship with our Heart and practice the art of presence, we embody our unique truth and bring forth a new energy into the world.

My greatest joy these days is to connect with those who make this way of living their focus. Thank you reading this, and for being a part of the Heart Magick Tribe. For shining your bright light. For daring to Be, no longer this or that, but All of You. Here and Now.
