Sacred Geometry
August 14, 2008
What are we to make of the crop circles, if anything? Do you write them off as a hoax, multidimensional beings giving us a message, maybe a warning, or what? Jonash, an internationally acclaimed artists beleives that they are messages about the coming 2012- and other messages. Are we leaving the fourth sun and moving into the enlightened fifth sun as the Mayans think? And what’s up with this new geometry?
I barely passed my trigonometry and geometry classes in high school, let alone trying to comprehend deeper mathematics, but maybe it was because I couldn’t tie it to anything practical. And this 2012 potential scenario is practical you must ask!
But, I am amazed at fractal geometry, which I see as a divine or sacred geometry.
A fractal is generally a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole, a property called self-similarity. The term was coined by Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin fractus meaning “broken” or “fractured.” Everything that looks disjointed or chaotic to us isn’t, but have a pattern that can be discerned.
Sacred geometry is geometry used in the design of sacred architecture and sacred art. The basic belief is that geometry and mathematical ratios, harmonics and proportion are also found in music, light, cosmology. This value system is seen as widespread even in prehistory, a cultural universal of the human condition. It is considered foundational to building sacred structures such as temples, mosques, megaliths, monuments and churches.
Scientists have affirmed that crop circles have become more subtle and complex in the last decade. What’s the messsage? Is there one?
In nature, we find patterns, designs and structures from the most minuscule particles, to expressions of life discernible by human eyes, to the greater cosmos. These inevitably follow geometrical archetypes, which reveal to us the nature of each form and its vibrational resonances. They are also symbolic of the underlying metaphysical principle of the inseparable relationship of the part to the whole.
Sacred geometry may be understood as a worldview of pattern recognition, a complex system of religious symbols and structures involving space, time and form. According to this view the basic patterns of existence are perceived as sacred. By connecting with these, a believer contemplates the Great Mysteries, and the Great Design. By studying the nature of these patterns, forms and relationships and their connections, insight may be gained into the mysteries the laws and lore of the Universe.
Maybe even some insights about 2012.
As Jonash wrote, “Sacred geometry can lead us to our own personal holy grail, if we open up our trust. From the alignment of the stars and ancient architectural structures, to every cell in our body and even our heartbeat, geometry is everywhere.”
Can you see it? Do you want to?
