Ok ......... Why ?
It's
just a shape right ? While in one respect yes..
just
the same as the circle
, the pentagon
,
the pentagram
,
even
the flower of life are all just
shapes .. but they are much more
the
pyramid is no exception
When
we think of pyramids we think of Egypt
and
understandably so, as they made the most use of them
They
built them for the Nobles to lie in after death
as
they felt the pyramids power would preserve them
and
as we have seen by the well preserved state of mummies
found
in such places, they were more or less correct
Ok but again.. why ?
It
has to do with the sacred geometry of forms
the
pyramid is especially well suited to channeling energy
think
of energy as a flow of water ... now imagine pouring a cup of water
over
say a cube ? Or a globe..?
The
cube would tend to let the water fall off one edge
which
is why Feng Shui works ... our tendency to
make square houses
means
parts of our homes get more energy flow than others
just
by their shape alone ... Feng Shui attempts to correct this imbalance
ditto
for just about any other shape you could name
The
Pyramid however .. if you pour water on the direct center of it
will
sheet the water evenly to all sides at once
(
Ya can tell I have actually done this one..hehehhehe..)
This
is what makes it a prefect shape for channeling energy
In
times of old.. a Witch was always portrayed with a conical pointed hat
of
which we make much fun of now a days
but
there was good sound, practical reasoning behind such garb
The
witch would be sitting under the closest thing to a pyramidal shape
one
can wear, and thereby increase the flow of energy for the rites
The
priestess of old Egypt commonly wore a literally pyramidal hat
made
of metal during their rites for the same reason
Nor
was this habit limited to the Craft
check
out any picture of the ladies of old Europe during the middle ages
Remember
those tall pointed hats they wore..?
It
was not just a fashion statement, it was a form of talisman for protection
from disease
The Esoteric reasons
The
circle is the realm of spirit ... all things combined with the here and
now,
and
all that is above us at once.. which is why we use a circle to perform
the rites
We
are human however .. finte.. the pentagon with its measurable sides
is
a representation of man ... The Pyramid however takes the cube of man
and
the circle of power, and brings the realm of spirit into the realm of Earth
There
are many such forms in use but the pyramid works best of all
Scientists
know that specific shapes create energy.
Look
at the Arc of the covenant ... they tried to build a copy of it once
they
almost demolished the building it was housed in ( the wearing of the breastplate
of
Artimis, with all its jewels placed just so, when dealing with the Arc
was
not just for show, it was a simple circuit board
that
would allow you to get near the thing, without getting hurt )
There
is a whole body of literature on this if your interested
All
forms have there own power
from
the outer world of space to the inner man and the cells
that
make up your body ... all are based on the same forms
The
pyramid shape is the simplest, yet one of the most powerful
representations
... No matter what material you use
stone,
metal, paper, if you make a pyramid shape and face one side
to
magnetic North, an energy field is generated ... just get a compass and
align it
Some
materials make a better energy field than others
I
have found copper to be one of the best myself
If
one looks at the Great pyramids you find even more, being
where
they are placed on the earth itself in relation to each other
If
you look at it, it creates what is called the "golden mean or ratio"
which
is just an overfancifed name for the most basic formula of numbers
called
a
Fibonacci (off site link) series which means The next number in line
is
the addition of the two before it ect etc.
Which
happens to be what ? The most basic fact of numbers there is
we
still use this formula for just about everything
if
you have ever done algebra, you know this series.
It
creates this lovely curved shape, that looks like a nautilus shell
Now
you know why the Nautilus shell is so commonly seen in Esoteric work :)
This
comes as no surprise, if you understand that Egypt created
the
mathematics needed to build the Great pyramids
math
which is the basis for almost all we do today ... especially in building
things
This
number crunching, is what allows the computer you are using
to
view this to work at all ... massive amount of numbers
translated
into form ... the same thing happens on the phone
The
voice becomes numerical data ... which is then translated back into a voice
Everywhere
you look, you will see these numbers in action
There
first recorded application, was the pyramids of Giza
