Handcrafted Flower Of Life, crystal grid board: Artist, Candace Taylor (Rhodehouse)
 
The Flower of Life is a geometric symbol that typically consists of nineteen overlapping circles that are spaced evenly apart from one another. The pattern formed by the circles creates images of perfectly symmetrical flowers. Some Flower of Life symbols use as little as seven circles within the design so there are some different variations of the symbol.  
 
The meaning behind the Flower of Life symbol is that it is believed to represent the cycle of creation. It depicts how all life comes from one singular source - represented by the circle in the middle of the pattern.  
 
There is believed to be a secret symbol hidden within the Flower of Life symbol, which is said to hold the most significant and sacred patterns of the universe. It is believed to be a sort of blueprint for all life, with the fundamental patterns for everything from atoms to planets and everything in between.
 
Architects, artists, and philosophers have known the perfect form, harmony, and proportion. Pagans consider it to be a form a sacred geometry that depicts the basic forms of time and space. Sacred geometry refers to the geometric patterns and laws that create everything in the universe. They believe the Flower of Life symbol to be a visual representation of the interconnectedness of life and all beings.
