Chakra Sacred Geometry 7piece Set - ±6.7x9cm

sacred geometry set consisting of the 5 platonic solids a star tetrahedron and a sphere.   made from the following gemstones: red jasper peach aventurine golden quartz green aventurine lapis lazuli amethyst rock crystal. the platonic solids are named after the greek philosopher plato who theorised that these geometric figures form the fundamental building blocks of our universe. accordingly they relate to the five elements*: hexahedron: earth associated with qualities such as stability materiality and the physical world. octahedron: air associated with qualities such as intellect and communication. tetrahedron: fire associated with qualities such as passion transformation and energy. icosahedron: water associated with qualities such as emotions intuition and adaptability. dodecahedron: aethere associated with the spiritual or divine essence that transcends the material world. one of the most striking features of the platonic solids is that each is a regular polyhedron. This means that each plane of the polyhedron is an equilateral polygon and the vertices of the polyhedron are all identical and the same distance from the centre of the polyhedron. In relation to sacred geometry it is the universal mathematical properties of the platonic solids that make them so remarkable - and perhaps even divine. the star tetrahedron also known as merkaba is a three-dimensional star with eight points. Phoneticallyits name can be traced back to ancient egyptian mer ka bah - light body and spirit. The upper tetrahedron is said to represent male energy while the lower one represents female energy. As such among other meanings it is a symbol of perfect balance in all things and is often used in removing blockages from our energetic body. the sphere - without edges without beginning or end is the starting point from which all things originate and to which all things return.  the platonic solids all have three concentric spheres: the circumscribed sphere that passes through all vertices the central sphere that touches every edge at the centre of the edge and the inscribed sphere that touches every plane at the centre of the plane.   chakras chakras are subtle energy points literally called energy wheels. They function as places of energy exchange. In fact we have hundreds of chakra points spread throughout our subtle energy system. However the most well-known are the seven main chakras which are connected in the central energy channel of our body which runs along our spine. When the chakras function properly these centres are gateways for vital life energy that enters our body through channels (nadis) and meridians through our subtle body. At the same time they are also vanishing points for low-frequency energy to flow back to the subtle bodies that are being transformed. Each of the seven major chakras represents a level of consciousness or developmental stage of life viewed from the perspective of our physical existence. Chakras may function less when they are in a negative state for a long time due to negative habits and accumulated emotions. This makes it difficult for the personality to fully integrate the level of consciousness that each chakra represents. When the chakras are open and in balance they form an integrated system in which each chakra is dependent on the others for optimal function. *the characteristics of all mineral stones on our website are not scientifically proven; they are based on experiences of users and gemstone therapists.
