Nature’s Math

What does math have to do with herbal supplements and essential oils? Keep reading. You’ll see that Nature’s expression of Itself just happens to be mathematically perfect in the plant kingdom as it is in all of the rest of nature.

The Magic Number: Phi

The Fibonacci number, also known as phi, is more than a mathematical curiosity. It is one of the most amazing and pervasive numbers known to man. This, above all numbers, would be a perfect sign to tell us that creation is not just the result of random processes.

The mathematician credited with the discovery of this series is Leonardo Pisano Fibonacci, and for those of you interested in learning more, there is a publication devoted to disseminating information about its unique mathematical properties, The Fibonacci Quarterly.

How Does Phi Work?

The Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two numbers in the list together to form the next and so on and so on.(1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55…). Divide any number in the Fibonacci sequence by the one before it, for example 55/34, or 21/13, and the answer is always close to 1.61803. This is known as the Golden Ratio, (aka phi, the Golden Mean, the Divine Proportion).

How does Phi Show Up in Nature?

Fibonacci ratios appear in the ratio of the number of spiral arms in daisies, in the chronology of rabbit populations, in the sequence of leaf patterns as they twist around a branch, and a myriad of places in nature where self-generating patterns are in effect.

From the distances between the planets, to the structure of Saturn’s rings to the shape of the universe, phi is found again and again in different manifestations. New findings reveal that the universe itself is in the shape of a dodecahedron, a twelve-sided geometric solid with pentagon faces, all based on phi.

Phi governs the proportion of our world and it can be found even in the most seemingly proportion-less (active) living forms.

Clear examples of Sacred Geometry (and phi) in Nature and matter:

All types of crystals, natural and cultured.
The hexagonal geometry of snowflakes.
Creatures exhibiting logarithmic spiral patterns: e.g. snails and various shell fish.
Birds and flying insects, exhibiting clear Golden Mean proportions in bodies & wings.
The way in which lightning forms branches.
The way in which rivers branch.
The geometric molecular and atomic patterns that all solid metals exhibit.
The way in which a tree spans out so that all its branches receive sunlight.
And a most significant example of this special ratio can be found in DNA – the foundation and guiding mechanism of all living organisms.

Phi and Engineering

Phi can be seen imbedded in many of the ancient monuments that still exist today, such as the Great Pyramid at Giza. In fact, the geometry in this particular structure is far more accurate than that found in any of today’s modern buildings.

This also explains why pyramids and hemispheres (e.g. the domes, that are the basis of religious buildings, be it a mosque, a church or a synagogue) are spiritually significant shapes. These particular shapes are energy emitters; they are shapes that produce a type of penetrating carrier wave which acts as carrier-like radio waves that carry sound information. The vibrational quality of the Golden Mean gives it very strong communication properties, which facilitate resonance with higher realms in prayer.

Phi and the Third Dimension

We live in the 3rd dimension, or the ‘Plane of Manifestation’. The Golden Mean is an intra-dimensional doorway though which matter emerges into manifest 3-dimensional reality. For example, when a star is born it follows specific number sequences or universal rules, the same rules of life in the expansion process. Then we see the light!

Thus the Golden Mean is the “fingerprint” of creation. When we re-create this moving and always expanding sequence, we have in effect – ‘the exact movement of creation in the expansion process’.

So I ask you, the more you learn about the make-up of Nature and how it works … once you see how its different aspects all work in harmony (and don’t forget, we’re a part of all of that), doesn’t it just make sense that herbs and essential oils, along with lifestyle changes, are a better choice for getting our health back on track?
