The image looks like a set of equally proportioned flowers. The FLOWER OF LIFE is a geometrical design that consists of 19 circles of the same size that are interconnected. Planting the seed to create a new, internal cycle which then creates a source of refreshed energy. The overlapping of the circles shows that these events did not happen independently of each other, either, but that each is intimately connected to the next, building atop what came before it.Īs a meditation aid and point of focus, the Seed of Life is said to help remake the individual. In this case, the seven circles are often compared to the seven days of creation, with the different circles being ascribed to different points in the universe's making. The basis of the Seed of Life is the circle, and in sacred geometry circles represent cycles, as well as encompassing things. And as the name Seed of Life implies, it is the basis for all creation, and the universe as we know it. The design is not very aesthetic, but it is known to also have a symbolic meaning. There are six circles on the outside, which interconnect with the seventh circle in the middle. The SEED OF LIFE is a geometrical design that consists of 7 overlapping circles - all the same size. I believe that every natural pattern of growth or movement comes back to one or more geometric shapes.Īs I continued to learnd more, I discovered there are even famous circles in Sacred Geometry. It helps reveal the precise ways that the energy of creation organizes itself. Sacred Geometry also offers explanations for the energy patterns that create and unify all things.

I had to look it up, but Olympism is a 'philosophy of life, exalting and combining in a balanced whole the qualities of body, will and mind.' It is no surprise that de Coubertin chose equal-sized, interlocking circles to be the symbol of international togetherness. Baron Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the International Olympic Committee, wanted it to show the 5 continents united by Olympism. During my research I found out each colored ring actually represents one of the participating continents (Europe, Africa, Americas, Asia & Australia). The Olympic rings (see above) are a great example of this notion. In my opinion, circles are the ultimate symbol of unity.
