Hidden within the natural world are sacred blueprints-patterns and shapes that echo through everything such as seashells, plants, and even our own DNA. Among the most powerful of these are the Platonic Solids- a group of five perfectly symmetrical three-dimensional shapes. They are considered the building blocks of creation, carrying within them the structure of the elements, the wisdom of the cosmos, and the energetic codes of harmony. They are the only five three-dimensional shapes where all faces are the same shape and size, all edges are equal, all angles are the same, and the shape looks the same from every corner.
Platonic Solids have been studied throughout history and mystery schools. They were seen as sacred keys to understanding our relationship with the Universe. In your own practice, they can be used to balance chakras, access higher states of consciousness, an anchor for crystal grids, or as tools in Reiki sessions or meditation practices.
