![]() ![]() Formerly they were not only something “godlike” but possessed-curiously enough-an all-embracing significance. We have long known that numbers did not always possess the dry-as-dust abstract quality that characterizes them today. Why should it surprise us that this is the way things are? Marie-Louise von Franz writes in Number and Time: The revelations, which result from this perception, awaken feelings of wonder in those who care about such things. We are in the midst of a revival of an ancient way of looking at the world as an interlocking system of harmonious numbers. Introduction: A Harmony that Structures the Universe Offering an approach to sacred geometry that pairs the mystical with the practical, the cosmic with the earthly, the author reveals how the art and science of harmonics should be required study for both the artist and the seeker of eternal truths as well as the scientist who seeks an entrance into the sacred foundations of nature. The author applies harmonics and the “vesica construction” matrix to illustrate many of nature’s wonders, including the Earth-Moon relationship, the interactions of the Golden Number and the musical scale, and how the Flower of Life symbol connects the universal field with the pattern of raindrops falling on a pond. ![]() Showing how harmonics can also be applied to the mysteries of time and space, the author demonstrates how the vesica piscis and many other variations of the vesica shape reveal numerical synchronicities and correspondences that connect cosmic time cycles, measures of space, and musical tones. He demonstrates many practical applications that result from the study of harmonics, providing analyses of ancient sculpture and architecture, as well as original examples of building floor plans, pottery figures based on planetary proportions, gardens based on harmonic principles, and ceremonial spaces that honor cosmic harmonies and sacred geometric relationships. This school of thought- harmonics-envisioned the natural world and the solar system as an interlocking matrix of harmonious numbers, perfectly woven into the creative fabric of life and the surrounding universe.Įxploring the art and science of harmonics, John Oscar Lieben shows how to create harmonious forms using the ancient tools of number, geometry, and musical tone-an approach that resonates with nature’s own ways of creation. We are in the midst of a revival of an ancient way of looking at the world-an approach that enabled great civilizations of the past to bring forth inventions of great beauty and power.
