Sacred Geometry
It was my understanding that there would be no maths.
Sacred Geometry is an idea that symbolic and sacred meanings are assigned to certain geometric shapes that fit certain proportions. Its the idea that the Architect(s) of the Universe created everything according to a geometric plan. Its very roots are in the study of nature. From honeybees to the growth of nautilus shell there’s significance in nature’s forms.
So who was the genius who thought about this? If you guessed the most famous ol G from Ancient Greece, Plato. You’d be correct, according to Plutarch (also Greek). Ancient Greek Mic drop!
The entire universe is made out of math. I’m not much of a mathematician myself. But this is a topic that I think we can wrap our brains around. Geometry’s role in this is equally vital.
How much Sacred Geometry are we going to talk about? There are a total of 600 shapes. There are 28 that I’m going to cover briefly. I don’t plan on using too much math to explain these diagrams. Since we have so many, lets get this list started.
