Sacred Geometry: Platonic Solids
The platonic solids are the building blocks of the cosmos. They create the qualities of the universe. There are five basic polyhedrons: cube, tetrahedron (four equilateral triangle faces), octahedron(8 equilateral triangle faces), icosahedron (20 equilateral triangle faces), and the pentagonal dodecahedron (12 pentagonal faces). Add the sphere and you have all you need. Add the star tetrahedron if you like…why not?
These basic s are drawn from the flower of life, which births Metatron’s Cube
The solids correspond to the 5 elements as well. The tetrahedron is considered fire. The cube is Earth. The octahedron is air.The icosahedron is water. The dodecahedron is ether (prana…extending energy everywhere).
Our energy bodies are contained in a sphere. Near the inside edge of the sphere is the dodecahedron, the terminating point of the geometricies. These shapes mirror the make up of the universe, macroscopic as well as microscopic. The icosohedron and the dodecahedron construct the DNA molecule in a dual relationship.
The study of the solids leads to an expansive understanding and revelation of the make up of life. Since there is such an inner and outer relationship in our experience, exposure to the shapes themselves can be enough o unlock deep memories of our state of balance and our true self.
To the alchemist this is the land of miracles…a place where the healing/balancing takes place through the wisdom of the client. We provide the setting and lay the thought as key to the opening.
