Circle Magick – The Flower of Life

Posted on September 5, 2013

I have been creating patterns utilising the tessellating nature and rotation of circles.

The geometric figure of a tube torus represented by the Seed of Life.

A basic one dimensional depiction of the Tube Torus shape is formed by ratching the Seed of Life and duplicating the lines of the tube torus in its design. Some say the Tube Torus contains a code of vortex energy that describes light and language in a unique way, perhaps as something of an Akashic Record.

The Seed/Flower of Life

The Flower of Life is a name for a geometrical figure composed of multiple evenly-spaced, overlapping circles. This figure, used as a decorative motif since ancient times, forms a flower-like pattern with the symmetrical structure of a hexagon.

A “Flower of Life” figure consists of seven or more overlapping circles, in which the center of each circle is on the circumference of up to six surrounding circles of the same diameter. However, the surrounding circles need not be clearly or completely drawn; in fact, some ancient symbols that are claimed as examples of the Flower of Life contain only a single circle or hexagon.

Figures as prominent as Leonardo da Vinci are said to have ascribed significance to the Flower of Life and three similar symbols, called the “Egg of Life,” the “Fruit of Life,” the “Seed of Life”. Drunvalo Melchizedek, an author from the New Age movement, has called these figures symbols of sacred geometry, asserting that they represent ancient spiritual beliefs, and that they depict fundamental aspects of space and time. Melchizedek claims that Metatron’s Cube may be derived from the Flower of Life pattern, and that the Platonic solids within it were “thought to act as a template from which all life springs.”

The Flower of Life and the Seed of Life are linked by New Age authors with the Biblical prophet Enoch, the Archangel Metatron, the six days of Creation, the Vesica Piscis religious symbol, and Borromean rings. Extract from Wikipedia

George, Paul, John & Ringo

George, Paul, John & Ringo

What a powerful symbol the apple is, from the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden to the suicide apple of Alan Turing (father of computer science). It certainly seems that with this magical symbol comes a great deal of commercial success! Glad Apple corps and Apple Inc finally sorted it out. I like a cider myself.

Urdhva Padmasana – Brain Growth Technique

Posted on July 10, 2009

Urdhva Padmasana

I recently did a series of illustrations for ‘Urdhva Padmasana’ This is an advanced Yoga asana which can be practiced for short periods of time by anyone with the inclination.

The asana is designed to channel energies towards the brain and convert base energies (ie; sexual) further up the Chakra directly feeding the brain.

The concept is to stop trying so hard to manipulate everything materially and to conserve energies for consciousness.

One who practices this asana achieves the perfect control of the body:

It strengthens the brain by supplying it with an abundant flow of blood. This in turn increases the power of meditation and sharpens the intellect.
It improves the eyesight and removes the weakness of the ears, the chest, the heart and other organs.
It supplies arterial blood to all the internal glands with the result that they function efficiently.
It strengthens and nourishes all the muscles, bones and sense organs.
