This school of thought--\u003ci\u003eharmonics\u003c\/i\u003e--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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Exploring 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. 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 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.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“From a drop of water to the expanse of the solar system and beyond, this book reveals an unseen harmony pervading the natural world.” * Mark Vidler and Catherine Young, authors of Sacred Geometry of the Earth *\u003cbr\u003e“John Oscar Lieben has developed a simple framework with which to view the whole world of geometric formation and proportion. His visual language maintains wholeness while giving detailed examples in architecture, musical proportion, the human form, cosmic time, and the elements. This art and craft can form sacred images which, like traditional mandalas and yantras, find a balanced order in the world.” * Richard Heath, author of The Harmonic Origins of the World *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Harmony That Structures the Universe \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 The Field of Harmony\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThe Ring Form • The Vesica-Tone Construction • Tone \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e2\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Geometry of Time \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThe Center of Time • The Tritone • Harmonious Rectangles \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e3\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003e Moon and Earth \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eMeasures of Time and Space • The Three Masters (Part 1) • Constructing a Seven-Tone Scale • The Three Masters (Part 2) • Earth and Moon • The Inner Earth \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Temple of Water \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eLand and Water • The Shape of Raindrops • The Temple Garden • A Temple of Water \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e5\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003e Musical Vessels \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePlanetary Pottery • The World in a Grain of Sand \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e6\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Spiraling Octave\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThe Sky Speaks • Octave Spirals • Musical Spaces \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e7 \u003cb\u003eHarmonic Structures \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThe Harmonic Series • The Mean • The Reciprocal • Musical Rectangles • The Vesica-Harmonic Construction • The Minor Third \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e8 \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Circle of Resonance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Resonance • Two from One • One from Two • The Birth of the Moon • Crossings • Harmonic Science \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e9 The Musical Universe\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAs Above, So Below • The Water of Life • The Great Central Sun • The Galactic Core \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e10 \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Tree of Time\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA Spiral of Time • The Vesica of Time • The Era Before Time • The Tree of Time • Within the Root of Time \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e11 \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Cosmic Flower\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe Symbol in the Sky • Sacred Cosmology • The Symbol Speaks • Ceremony \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAppendix 1\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Vessel of Ceremony\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eCeremony within Geometric Space • Classical Geometry • Creating Sacred Space • An Earth-Honoring Ceremony • A Birth of the Moon Ceremony • A Water-Honoring Ceremony • A Birth of the Cosmos Ceremony • A Sun-Honoring Ceremony \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAppendix 2 \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Miscellany of Numbers and Forms\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBibliography \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIllustration \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCredits \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Inner Traditions Bear and Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49410699854167,"sku":"9781620557013","price":32.46,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781620557013.jpg?v=1730511053","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/sacred-geometry-for-artists-dreamers-and-philosophers-secrets-of-harmonic-creation-9781620557013","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
