3D Spherical Flower of Life by Roger Anthony Essig, © 2009

The flower of life is an ancient symbol, traditionally it is represented as a 2d image
The traditional symbol used to describe the flower of life shows the cross section of the multitudes of interconnecting spheres.

I have attempted to show the 3rd dimension of this unique and all-encompassing symbol.

The flower of life has been referred to as the map of the universe, an interconnected symbol of mathematical perfection in which many geometrical shapes can be generated within the intersecting points. The flower of life symbol has to be thought as a 2d representation or a cross-section of a 3d form.

With this animation I hope to show what the inner workings of a 3d spherical flower of life are. I feel this animation represents more an illusion of what an actual true 3d flower of life would be like, as in an interesting way it loses its correctness the further it goes away from the centre.

Based upon an original version I made in 2002.

awesome! do you know the plotting points in 3d space for each circle? ive been trying find a sequence in the x, y plots.

certain numbers like, 1.7, 1.6666, and 1.822 seem to pop up.

have you tried plotting the 4d platonic solids from the 3d flower of life? this existence is so holographic.

could you send me the 3d file?

cheers for looking. I am not at all mathematically minded , although i have thought about the possibilities of adding within the structure 3d platonic solids, 4d, woooah, now that would be interesting.

Great original perspective on sacred geometry. Keep em coming!

[rogeressig]

cheers for that, more to come

I like it..Thanks
