Video Description
Morphing Platonic Solids. Sacred geometry involves sacred universal patterns used in the design of everything in our reality.

Sacred Geometry
Sacred geometry is the geometry used in the planning and construction of religious structures such as churches, temples, mosques, religious monuments, altars, tabernacles; as well as for sacred spaces such as temenoi, sacred groves, village greens and holy wells, and the creation of religious art. However, in sacred geometry, symbolic and sacred meanings are ascribed to certain geometric shapes, and certain geometric proportions:

  • Labyrinth (an Eulerian path, as distinct from a maze)

  • Mandala

  • Flower of Life

  • Parthenon

  • Taijitu (Yin-Yang)

  • Tree of Life

  • Rose Window

  • Celtic art such as the Book of Kells

  • Yantra

  • Swastika

  • Dharmacakra

  • Vesica piscis

  • Metatron's Cube.

Platonic Solids
A Platonic solid is a convex polyhedron that is regular, in the sense of a regular polygon. Specifically, the faces of a Platonic solid are congruent regular polygons, with the same number of faces meeting at each vertex; thus, all its edges are congruent, as are its vertices and angles.

The aesthetic beauty and symmetry of the Platonic solids have made them a favorite subject of geometers for thousands of years. They are named for the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who theorized that the classical elements were constructed from the regular solids.

Morphing
Morphing is a special effect in motion pictures and animations that changes (or morphs) one image into another through a seamless transition. Most often it is used to depict one person turning into another through technological means or as part of a fantasy or surreal sequence. Traditionally such a depiction would be achieved through cross-fading techniques on film. Since the early 1990s, this has been replaced by computer software to create more realistic transitions.
