Really enjoyed my time with this book. Wealth of knowledge that brought great insight to ancient symbols. Easy to pick up and read, loved the symbol meditations to dive deeper into their wisdom.
Significantly slower than the sister book in this series I read. Many of the shapes are interesting but offer little insight into why the shapes are significant
Excellent reference guide on the topic of sacred geometry. Practitioners and believers will likely use this started text less than individuals new to the field, but it is a robust introduction and could serve as a reference tool for many types of readers. Authors and writers who focus on science fiction and fantasy may also want to buy a copy as a tool for future projects/writings.
I was first introduced to Sacred Geometry by my favorite yoga instructor. Forms, shapes and order in the universe, all governed by formulas and geometry. This book is a good introduction. You might want to read it twice to get it all.
This was a good introduction to a complex topic. The writing flowed. It would benefit from more pictures to illustrate the more complicated shapes and symbols.
