Rock Crystal sacred geometry set consisting of the 5 platonic solids, a star tetrahedron and a sphere.
The platonic solids are named after the Greek philosopher Plato, who theorised that these geometric figures form the fundamental building blocks of our universe.
Accordingly, they relate to the five elements:
Hexahedron: Earth, associated with qualities such as stability, materiality and the physical world.
Octahedron: Air, associated with qualities such as intellect and communication.
Tetrahedron: Fire, associated with qualities such as passion, transformation and energy.
Icosahedron: Water, associated with qualities such as emotions, intuition and adaptability.
Dodecahedron: Aethere, associated with the spiritual or divine essence that transcends the material world.
One of the most striking features of the Platonic solids is that each is a regular polyhedron. This means that each plane of the polyhedron is an equilateral polygon and the vertices of the polyhedron are all identical and the same distance from the centre of the polyhedron. In relation to sacred geometry, it is the universal mathematical properties of the Platonic solids that make them so remarkable - and perhaps even divine.
The star tetrahedron, also known as Merkaba, is a three-dimensional star with eight point. Phonetically, its name can be traced back to ancient Egyptian Mer Ka Bah - light, body and spirit. The upper tetrahedron is said to represent male energy, while the lower one represents female energy. As such, among other meanings, it is a symbol of perfect balance in all things and is often used in removing blockages from our energetic body.
The sphere - without edges, without beginning or end, is the starting point from which all things originate and to which all things return. The Platonic solids all have three concentric spheres: the circumscribed sphere that passes through all vertices, the central sphere that touches every edge at the centre of the edge, and the inscribed sphere that touches every plane at the centre of the plane.
