Sacred Geometry is making news today. What is Sacred Geometry? Let’s consult the famous WikiPedia for more information.

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; sacred spaces such as altars, temenoi and tabernacles; meeting places such as sacred groves, village greens and holy wells and the creation of religious art, iconography and using “”divine”" proportions. Alternatively, sacred geometry based arts may be ephemeral, such as visualization, sandpainting and medicine wheels.

In essence, Sacred Geometry refers to the unknown and unknowable design behind commonly accepted reality. Not everyone agrees on the interpretation, but many humans sense a pattern in their lives and in the movements of people as a whole.
