Pentagrams and the Hippocampus: The Golden Mean of Health







The reason I have been placing pentagram artwork at the start of the last couple of posts is that pentagrams represent the human being in perfect healthy proportion.  In a true pentagram there is no end and no beginning as all points and lines connect and form a network.  The top point represents one’s spirit or awareness which is awake and creatively forming one's evolutionary progress.  The proportion of the lines results in the Golden Mean which is a measurement of the appropriate height, length and width of one aspect of your being to another.


There is nothing magical about pentagrams.  At least there’s not supposed to be.  Magic and pentagrams are hogwash, and people who utilize them in magical operations, are trying to cheat themselves out of doing all the hard work which is necessary for evolution.  Here, I utilize pentagrams as a tool, one of many which will be provided, for good hippocampic health.  The hippocampus responds well to geometry as its function is to structure memory, pentagrams are excellent for providing a proper framework for healthy memory storage, and it helps one move through their environment, so pentagrams are useful in a spatial navigation sense in that they establish the proper energetic proportions of one’s body as it moves through  physical and energetic terrains. 


Geometry, in general, is a specific skeleton or framework which captures or channels energy into a particular format so that physical systems can grow and thrive.  The geometry of a pentagram channels the energy of the evolutionary spiral seen in the growth of ivy tendrils, galaxies, seashells and hurricanes. From the evolutionary spiral, other geometries are produced and thus the potential for healthy growth is geometrically established.
