What Is The Meaning Of The Flower Of Life?

At first glance the Flower of Life appears to be rather simple, but there is a deeper meaning behind its design. The symbol is made up of multiple overlapping circles of the same size, 13 circles to be precise. Many people think that understanding the Flower of Life can help us to understand how the Universe works. Sacred geometry ascribes symbolic and sacred meanings to certain geometric shapes and certain geometric proportions.

A fascinating and inspirational look at the vital link between the hidden geometrical order of the universe, geometry in nature, and the geometry of the man-made world.

The Da Vinci Code has awakened the public to the powerful and very ancient idea that religious truths and mathematical principles are intimately intertwined. Sacred Geometry offers an accessible way of understanding how that connection is revealed in nature and the arts. Over the centuries, temple builders have relied on magic numbers to shape sacred spaces, astronomers have used geometry to calculate holy seasons, and philosophers have observed the harmony of the universe in the numerical properties of music. By showing how the discoveries of mathematics are manifested over and over again in biology and physics, and how they have inspired the greatest works of art, this illuminating study reveals the universal principles that link us to the infinite.

Many ancient people believed that numbers had a symbolic meaning aside from their everyday use. Various shapes such as triangles, hexagons and octagons are considered a physical manifestation of a number. Because of this, these shapes hold a higher vibrational value because of the fact that they are visible. Sacred geometry has often been employed in the design of sacred architecture and sacred art.

One scientist who became very interested in the Flower of Life was Leonardo DaVinci, He studied it so he could to learn more about it mathematical properties and in what way it was connected to physical reality as well as consciousness. Leonardo was known for using the Golden Ratio of Phi in his artwork, this is also known as the Fibonacci Spiral, which is derived from the Flower of Life pattern.

One can say that the Flower of Life is regarded as a source of knowledge to everything that exists. Each of the circles explains another aspect of reality. The Flower of Life is said to give us information about everything ranging from the human body to the galaxies.

Today, the Flower of Life is used as a focus both for study and meditation.
