Nature geometry

Geometric forms are those which correspond to named regular shapes, such as squares, rectangles and circles. I like the fact that not all naturally occurring objects are organic and it is the precision and regularity of forms within the natural world which I find particularly inspiring. Below are just a few of many examples.

I was curious, so I analyzed the geometry of the peacock's tail-feather display. Turns out the shape is a symmetrical phyllotaxis, which is somewhat surprising. Most phyllotaxis patterns in nature (like on pinecones, pineapples and sunflowers) have spirals of adjacent Fibonacci numbers (usually 5, 8, 13 or 21), but the peacock's feathers have the same count of spirals in both directions!

Sacred Geometry of Plants “Today I'm here to tell you that it is 100% scientific and abundant in the world we live in, now and forever. It's right under our noses and in our homes. In our very houseplants and gardens.”

Symmetry is usually defined as a sense of "balanced proportions" or "the quality of having parts that match each other," especially in an attractive way. And, when you think about it, it is all around us. Whether we look at human beings, architecture, art, or biology, there’s nothing more fascinating than seeing how the world is full of perfect forms and harmony.

This diploma course teaches you about the Fibonacci Numbers and the golden ratio, where they appear in nature, and how they can be used in practical ways.

Explore the world of sacred geometry and discover the beauty and symbolism of these ancient geometric patterns. Our in-depth article covers the history and meanings of sacred geometry art and symbols.
