The process of creation was divided into six stages of creation. Starting from the primordial shape of a circle and dividing it, thus the shape known as the Vesica Pisces was obtained. Further dividing the shapes will obtain a figure made of three circles known under the name of the Tripod of Life. The circles are divided until they form what is known as the Seed of Life.
The Seed of Life consists of seven circles placed symmetrically thus forming the basic shape that leads to the formation of the Flower of Life. This is a shape that holds great significance and has been found in many cultures around the world.
Within its structure, the Flower of Life contains many symbols that also have great significance. For instance, the Tree of Life, a mystical concept in Kabbalistic beliefs, is used to understand how God created the world out of nothing. Kabbalists also depict this unique geometrical shape as a map of creation.
Another shape that can be found in the design of the Flower of Life is the Egg of Life. This structure consists of seven circles adjacent to one another without crossing their boundaries. The Egg of Life holds the basis for other geometrical figures like the Tetrahedron or the Cube, and it is also believed to be a representation of the multi-cellular embryo during its first hours of creation.
Another shape that can be extracted from the Flower of Life is the Fruit of Life. This shape is closely related to the Egg of Life, because it is a representation of this one with six more circles adjacent to the outer circles of the geometrical figure.
There are thirteen circles comprised in the design of the Fruit of Life. If the centre of each circle would be connected to the other ones with a single line between them, the seventy-eight lines obtained form the shape known as Metatron’s Cube. Within the obtained figure there are many others to be found, all of which are known as the Platonic Solids.
The mystical implications of the Fruit of Life come from its shape. This contains the basis for the design of the atom, molecular structure and every single life form that surrounds us. This is the reason why many people believe this figure to be the blueprint for the universe.
All of the geometrical shapes named afore the Flower of Life, the Seed of Life, the Egg of Life, the Fruit of Life, the Tree of Life and many others with similar significances and design serve as inspiration for pieces of jewelry created today.
David Weitzman, a cosmic jewelry artist known around the world for his inspiration, chose these patterns for the creation of some unique, handcrafted jewelry pieces. If you are interested in what he has to offer, all you need to do is visit the website ka-gold-jewelry.com.
