The Lotus of Life
Gazing deeply into this flower, our consciousness blooms:
The Lotus of Life is a cosmogram of human awareness—a tool for breath work, meditation and manifestation. It’s not something you look at, it’s something you enter. In other words, a single vesica pisces is a gate: self meeting Self, man meeting God or finite touching Infinite. It is initiatory and complete.
The Lotus of Life is what happens when that threshold is mirrored repeatedly—when these conditions reflect across a plane and the architecture becomes balanced. It is therefore not decorative, but diagnostic. Without this pattern, consciousness cannot arise. The Lotus of Life remains the grammar of form—from this plasmic membrane of 61 circles comes the structure of self-awareness:
The arrangement of 13 circles above gives birth to Metatron’s Cube below:
The pattern represents awakening. It rises from the mud to the light. It describes self-awareness from stillness. This is the framework that gives birth to the seven chakras:
Here we can see the cube, icosahedron, tetrahedron, star tetrahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron and cuboctahedron. While the lower chakras are rooted in sexuality, the upper chakras begin to strengthen our bond with our spiritual side. When the energies of all seven chakras are aligned, then we can start working with the eighth (the tesseract):
The unfolding of a tesseract into eight cubes is like the opening out of a cube into six squares. The use of a hypercube for the cross hints at the transcendental nature of God. Just as divinity exists in a world that is abstract to humans, the hypercube exists in 4D which is equally inaccessible. So the net of the hypercube is a 3D “crucifix” which in turn has a 2D shadow—both popular in religious iconography.

So this Soul Star chakra is the gateway to your Self as it expands past the planet. Because of this, the eighth wheel is the last energy centre that holds anything human within it—this hypercube becomes the temple of human cleansing and pattern release that may be lifetimes old. These knots are the last of what ties you to the reincarnative cycle and keeps you from uniting with higher powers, beings and ideas.
