The Flower of Life

July 2, 2011 39 Comments

The Flower of Life

The flower of life holds a secret through which one can discover the most important and sacred pattern in the universe. This is the source of all that exists; it’s called the Fruit of Life. It contains 13 informational systems. Each one explains another aspect of reality. Thus these systems are able to give us access to everything ranging from the human body to the galaxies. In the first system, for example, it’s possible to create any molecular structure and any living cellular structure that exists in the universe. In short every living creature.

If you overlay a map (after getting the correct scale) with the complete flower of life, all sacred sites, standing stones etc, will sit at the centre of six points.

 

The Seed of Life

The “Seed of Life” is formed from seven circles being placed with sixfold symmetry, forming a pattern of circles and lenses, which acts as a basic component of the Flower of Life’s design.

Seed of Life PatternThe Seed of Life is a symbol depicting the seven days of creation in which the Judeo-Christian God created life; Genesis 2:2-3, Exodus 23:12, 31:16-17, Isaiah 56:6-8.

The first step in forming the Seed of Life (or Flower of Life) is to begin with a circle (as in a 2D model) or a sphere (as in a 3D model).
According to some religious beliefs, the first step in building the Seed of Life was the creation of the octahedron by a divine “creator” (or “God”).

The next step was for the creator to spin the shape on its axes. In this way, a sphere is formed (see diagram).

The creator’s consciousness is said to exist within the sphere and the only thing that physically exists is the membrane of the sphere itself.

This “first step” is not to be confused with the “first day”, the latter being in reference to the seven days of creation.

The first day is believed to be the creation of the Vesica Piscis, then the creation of the Tripod of Life on the second day, followed by one sphere added for each subsequent day until all seven spheres construct the Seed of Life on the sixth day of Creation. The seventh day is the day of rest, known as the “Sabbath” or “Shabbat.”

The Egg of Life

After the creation of the Seed of Life the same vortex’s motion was continued, creating the next structure known as the Egg of Life.

Flower of Life
This structure forms the basis for music, as the distances between the spheres is identical to the distances between the tones and the half tones in music. It is also identical to the cellular structure of the third embryonic division (The first cell divides into two cells, then to four cells then to eight). Thus this same structure as it is further developed, creates the human body and all of the energy systems including the ones used to create the Merkaba. If we continue creating more and more spheres we will end up with the structure called the Flower of Life.

The Flower of Life

The Flower of Life is the modern name given to a geometrical figure composed of multiple evenly-spaced, overlapping circles. They are arranged to form a flower-like pattern with a sixfold symmetry.  The most common form of the “Flower of Life” is hexagonal pattern (where the center of each circle is on the circumference of six surrounding circles of the same diameter), made up of 19 complete circles and 36 partial circular arcs, enclosed by a large circle.

It is considered by some to be a symbol of sacred geometry, said to contain ancient, religious value depicting the fundamental forms of space and time. In this sense, it is a visual expression of the connections life weaves through all sentient beings, and it is believed to contain a type of Akashic Record of basic information of all living things.

The “Flower of Life” can be found in all major religions of the world. It contains the patterns of creation as they emerged from the “Great Void”. Everything is made from the Creator’s thought.

In the 13th century, a Cabalist group from France succeeded, through geometric interpretation, in dividing the entire Hebrew alphabet into an order using the Seed of Life. The resulting alphabet was remarkably similar to that of the Religious sage Rashi who wrote his commentaries on the Old Testament at that time in France.

 

 

The flower of life holds a secret symbols through which one can discover the most important and sacred pattern in the universe. This is the source of all that exists; it’s called the Fruit of Life. It contains 13 informational systems. Each one explains another aspect of reality. Thus these systems are able to give us access to everything ranging from the human body to the galaxies. In the first system, for example, it’s possible to create any molecular structure and any living cellular structure that exists in the universe. In short every living creature.

There are many spiritual beliefs associated with the Flower of Life; for example, depictions of the five Platonic Solids are found within the symbol of Metatron’s Cube, which may be derived from the Flower of Life pattern. These platonic solids are geometrical forms which are said to act as a template from which all life springs.

Fruit of Life

The “Fruit of Life” symbol is composed of 13 circles taken from the design of the Flower of Life.

The Fruit of Life is said to be the blueprint of the universe, containing the basis for the design of every atom, molecular structure, life form, and everything in existence. It contains the geometric basis for the delineation of Metatron’s Cube, which brings forth the platonic solids. If each circle’s centre is considered a “node”, and each node is connected to each other node with a single line, a total of seventy-eight lines are created, forming a type of cube (Metatron’s Cube).

Tree of Life

The symbol of the Tree of Life may be derived from the Flower of Life. The Tree of Life is a concept, a metaphor for common descent, and a motif in various world theologies and philosophies. This has historically been adopted by some Christians, Jews, Hermeticists, and pagans. Along with the Seed of Life, it is believed to be part of the geometry that parallels the cycle of the fruit tree. This relationship is implied when these two forms are superimposed onto each other.

 

Tree of Life

The Tree of Life is most widely recognized as a concept within the Kabbalah, which is used to understand the nature of God and the manner in which he created the world ex nihilo. The Kabbalists developed this concept into a full model of reality, using the tree to depict a “map” of creation. The tree of life has been called the “cosmology” of the Kabbalah.Some believe the Tree of Life of the Kabbalah corresponds to the Tree of Life mentioned in Genesis 2:9.

 

 

The World Grid: The invisible made visible…

A portion of the world grid, which invisibly encircles the planet. The grid is based on ‘the complete flower of life’ and the hexagon/hexagram. The diameter of the first circle was calculated by drawing a line from Orkney to Stonehenge (coincidently the line happens to pass through Rosslyn chapel which is exactly in the middle, this could be the real ‘rose line’). All of Europe’s ancient sites (stone circles symbolizing the flower) can be found lying on one of these lines. The grid also links all of these ancient sites together. Many of the oldest sacred sites lie at the centre of six points.

The complete flower of life also contains the three dimensional metatron cube, which holds all the Platonic solids.

Not just the building blocks of life, but the building blocks of creation itself.

    Ive been channeling the flower of life and its true meaning for over 20 years…it came to me in multiple visions each leading me to more information.. I eventuay discovered that the common way of placing the tree of life on tbe flower of life is incorrect…the trees hidden sepheroit Daath needs to be placed in the center of the flower since it does reprecent Unity…the. you find that when you make more trees…itll make metatrons cube…confirming my finding. I also found that if you take take every node of the or arch and put 2 more inside of each. Then place the universal man you can map out in 3 dimensions not only the sub harmonics of of the chakras but 72000 harmonic points that led me to the 72000 nadis meridians . Showing me that the meridians are actually chakras them selves and can be stimulated by frequencies. Which relate back to the 72 harmonic name of god. Which i began to believe was the way to “tune human kind”…by realigning or tuning all their resonant beings and body…allowing me to also discover that as harmonic beings degenerative diseases are from cells in the body not vibrating in harmony with the rest of the body causing the bodies natural defense to attack and destroy our lives.. In questioning my visions i discovered that this also not a map but a design for a dodecahedron sensory dep tank, filled with saline…or ambionic fluid… learning that all the symbols of life are the pattern for a womans womb…the perfect sound chamber….but we can make one for ourselves to heal us…from cancer, diabetes, ms, the list goes on. Or resonate our cells to transport to other frequencies which is defined as dimensions. Which led me to who or what is sending me this info……..now this scared me and worries me……it came down to Saturn and the hyper cube….. hence baal, kaba, tephilim, kronos, el, elohim, father time, death, and the black sun.

    I love the symbolic mean’s that reach out into the very depth of all that is and was. What God does in just a picture of art, made into a teaching tool that brings the very word of God reaching into the very depth of what God creates in mankind, and all that He has created, in the very miracle of what one single seed mean’s and how it grows into a tree, a flower that eventually becomes a fruit. WOW, makes me think of fruit trees. One can not help but notice the hand of God in all that He does in regard to creation.

    Symbols have played a key role in describing many of the components in Alchemy: solutions, solids & gases, along with the seven ruling planets and noble metals. By using geometry we have created new calendar and crystal symbols based on the relationship that exist between mathematics and the ruling planets.

    I got stoned in a dark garage once on strong cannabis , everywhere i looked i could see multi coloured interwoven geometric patterns just like the flower of life but with no boundary. On closer inspection of my car bonnet , smaller versions of the same pattern like a fractal effect . I have since done drawings of this pattern with a compass and found the pattern does repeat itself from big to small probably to infinity. Have anyone else had this expierience ,I have since stop using cannabis and never seen it again . I think some sort of chemical doorway was opened which allowed me to see the “matrix” upon everything we concieve as real.

      Yes Sean, DMT is doing it – this is reality what you perceive, in light structure. In order for us to naturally perceive it we must raise our own levels of DMT through natural nutrition, enough sleep and first and foremost a willingness to know truth and want to meditate. All else, all other practices that are not self-centered to make oneself self-luminous again , will revert this growth back to physical density and perceiving edges and objects instead of what is the cause of them

      It happened to me. But i was a out 8 at the time. I know exactly what youre talking about. Raised without any religous background at all. About 3 months ago i started doodling little flowers of life whenever i would zone out, while on hold on the phone, waiting at appointments. I covered the whole paper cover on doctor table while tuned out.

    I agree with this article, for the most part; however, the placing of the so-called Kabbalistic Tree of Life into the graphic image of the Flower of Life is without foundation. In my contribution to World Mysteries blog I demonstrate that the Kabbalistic Tree of Life (Natural Array) can only be found in a very small portion of the Flower of life: about one third of it. See link below

    Also the Tree of Life that you point out in Gen. 2:9 is not the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. I include in my article the fresco scene on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel of the TEMPTATION AND EXPULSION OF ADAM AND EVE FROM THE GARDEN OF EDEN. Around the tree note there are two serpents: one represents the guardian of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and the other guards the Tree of Life. In other words the tree in the garden is a hybrid of both trees.

    Nice read, but what about the last bit with the 4 element’s? aren’t you missing the 5th secret element which has been forbidden to even talk about trough our history? I’m talking about ‘Ether’ which is represented by the dodecahedron if i’m correct.

    Really small issue, you shouldn’t describe the rose line as containing ALL of Europe’s ancient sites. That’s obviously not true and I actually like this page, so be smart.

    There’s no need to exaggerate something that is naturally amazing.

    This flower of life is a 64 tetrehedron grid as describe in Nassim Haramein’s United Field Theory. This is the geometry of the vacuum or space. I highly recommend to anyone who is interested in this to watch some of Nassim’s videos.

    how very very interesting this article if not this site is, it is so intriguing the mysteries of life as we know it, yet dont. not just the whole world but the population of this world are a mystery in itself, how did we become REALLY, and are there other worlds out there..i tend to think there are if not of our past but of our future, we are where we are because that’s how it is..we have doubles yet never meet, our doubles could be the opposite of us or vise versa..many many mysteries to uncover to solve, many never to be solved that is what keeps our minds boggled yet energetic..life would be so boring otherwise..

    Indeed an interesting article that reminds me of the old saying, “Which came first, the Chicken or the Egg?” The Moiré Arena wherein we find ourselves residing, smears out over Time/Space and becomes inherent within thought and which came first the thought or the mind that expresses it into being and becoming. One thing we do not consider when we express the evident conclusions of the article above is the concept of ALWAYS. As far as I know, I have been here always and will ever be. There are times when we poke our senses out of the can and look around, and think we are through or ended, when we look up and over there comes a brand new version of what we thought we were. I for one, believe this experience of being and becoming is about ALWAYS OR ETERNITY. We think we can opt out but we soon learn, we can never leave. Not that one is, but that whereby Is, is.
