Ruled by the the domain of the Square, matter has a tendency of becoming too rigid and fixed. However as good as stability is it has one downside – it lacks dynamism. It upholds the principle of volume of the physical world and is responsible for solidity, reliability and sturdiness. In the physical world the Square represents static configuration of matter. The Square symbolises stability, fixed nature of matter, strong foundations and order. The power of the Square lies in its connection to Sacred Geometry.
The Symbolism of Square – the Power and the Pitfalls Everything we can touch and measure in our 3-dimensional world – from a tiny particle of sand to a skyscraper – belongs to the domain of 4 that is under the rulership of the Square. Squares and rectangular shapes in general are the building blocks, the “ Lego” of matter out of which all complexity originates. Because matter always has a volume and you need at least 4 points in space to bring it to the existence. Now you can see why in esoteric traditions the Square is a symbol of Matter, aka the physical world. Therefore it can exist in the physical world. It is defined by FOUR points and FOUR triangles and it finally has volume. Number 4 – four dots is where it gets really interesting because it allows us to define the simplest geometrical, yet physical object that we can touch and measure – a tetrahedron. Therefore neither of these – Dot, Line, Triangle – belong to this physical three-dimensional world of matter. They are abstract objects you cannot touch. BUT even the thinnest piece of paper as a physical object has some thickness. If you are a bit confused here, think of it like this… In the physical world you can’t touch the Dot, the Line or the Triangle – you can only touch a piece of paper on which they have been drawn. Because anything physical by definition has a volume which is described by width, length and height. But three dots are not enough to make a physical object with volume. Wherever you randomly place three dots in space there will always be only one unique plane to which all three dots belong to. Number 3 – three dots are enough to draw a Triangle and define a plane – an abstract flat surface with only two dimensions – width and length. Number 2 – two dots define a Line and represent the notion of length and the principle of opposition or dynamising polarity. Number 1 – one is related to a Dot and symbolises beginning and One-ness. This is how numerology is connected to geometry and esoteric symbolism: "Numbers are the Universal language offered by the deity to humans as confirmation of the truth.” St. Let me take you straight to the point: geometrically, in order to define any physical object – something that you can hypothetically touch – you need at least 4 points in space. Unlike mind and spirit, any physical substance has volume and mass. If you have ever been interested in esoteric knowledge you may have heard that the Square is a symbol of the physical world or the world of matter.
The principle of “4” - Emanation of the Square We take it for granted without paying attention to its profound significance and mystical symbolism.Īt a very sacred level, the Square is the fabric of the physical world. In so many ways, in this world of matter, the Square literally supports your body and is a mundane attribute of your everyday life. Perhaps right now you are sitting on something rather squarish, so you get the point… Have you ever noticed how heavily our physical world rests on the principle of the Square? Just look around – buildings, doors, windows, tiles, furniture, books… most of objects are predominantly based on a rectangular shape.
What is so magical and yet problematic about such seemingly simple geometric shape as a Square? Where does the Square help and where does it hinder in our life? Let’s explore our relationship with Squares from sacred geometric symbolism followed by its implication in design, jewellery and our physical existence at large. “Where is matter, there is geometry” Johannes Kepler Astrology Esoteric Geometric Jewellery Jewellery for Business Sacred Geometry Square – the Mysteries of Matter
