“Let no one enter here who is ignorant of geometry”
—Plato’s Academy—
The Tree of Life components on this site are based on the ten ideal numbers zero thru nine, the Sun, Moon and nine planets, and the twelve zodiac signs. In addition, the images of the Tree of Life are constructed using only geometrical relationships that can be derived with a straightedge and compass.
There will surely be those who claim to be part of an ancient Kabbalistic tradition who will dispute this approach. Unfortunately , the tradition of reevaluating the Tree of Life as new information emerges is the most neglected tradition. The goal of this tradition is to find the most harmonious arrangement of the components of the Tree of Life.
The intention of this work is to encourage seekers to explore alternative attributes and correspondences for the Tree of Life. In so doing they can see how the various components can relate to each other in a more harmonious manner. It could even inspire them to embark on there own journey towards wisdom, understanding, and the crown of inner light.
“Make each thing stand on its essence and make the creator sit on his throne”.
