Heath - Sacred Geometry: Language of the Angels

SACRED GEOMETRY

LANGUAGE OF THE ANGELS

Heath illuminates the cosmological ideas informing the teachings of John Bennett and George Gurdjieff. His book is a masterful insight into the origins of ancient wisdom, presented with impeccable analyses of megalithic and historical monuments. It gives a theory of angelic or higher intelligence based on astronomy, music, and numberreflecting the deep thought operating at the start of human consciousness.

In Sacred Geometry, Richard Heath proposes, based on his deep and comprehensive analysis of primary sacred sites, that numbers and geometries are the primary medium for divine creation. He proves these sites were built based on specific numbers and geometrical patterns that correspond with the musical octaves. Heath concludes angels inspired these sites to advance evolution on Earth, a very radical idea. If this is true, then angelic science guided the numeric order built into Earths design and its unfolding in time. I think hes right. Sacred Geometry is a deep and sustained meditation with the mind of Gaiabrilliant!

Richard Heath has deeply studied the astonishing harmonic insights possessed by the creators of ancient stone structures. He translates for us the sacred languages of number, tone, and geometry that they embodied in stone as expressions of and homage to the cosmic order found in the sky.

A masterwork from a mature mind that for the first time aligns and integrates megalithic and ancient sciences with the work of John Michell, Ernest McClain, John Bennett, George Gurdjieff, and those other visionaries of a re-emerging cosmology. Here is the future textbook on cosmological design principles that include a Creator. This book provides a viable alternative mandate to modern science.

Preface

S ACRED BUILDING OVER THE LAST five to seven thousand years often referenced a small set of highly specific designs, and these appear to be cosmic prototypes for the creation of life on Earth. This suggests that numbers and geometries are the primary medium for the Universal Will, just as physical laws are now known to determine the functional aspects of the universe. Laws enabled there to be stars and planets, but it was special sacred numbers that created the cosmic conditions for life.

The creation of the universe is complementary to its evolving self-consciousness. The present moment contains situations that can be understood through a limited number of terms whose interrelationships lead to a new capacity to act from understanding. The traditional symbol of this structure-building capacity was the wheel with a number of spokes, resembling the tone circle of an octave. This arose through a number of spiritual initiatives around 600 BCE, marking the coming ascendancy of the Cosmic Individuality, a name given to this evolving self-consciousness of the universe, a savior from its otherwise endless material expansion and ultimate doom. The Purpose of the universe is only to be found and fulfilled in this Cosmic Individuality, which is the reflex image and likeness of God, and is the beginning of a new type of creation on the Earth and other similar planets endowed with a large moon.

The story of this book would not have been possible without the work of Alexander Thom (18941985), who surveyed and interpreted the megalithic sites found in Britain and Brittany, and also the work of John Michell (19332009), who realized the importance of metrology and geometry to the interpretation of ancient buildings and the mysteries these represent. By 1991, my brother Robin Heath had rediscovered the all-important Lunation Triangle geometry from which appears to have flowed the form of numeracy responsible for the megalithic civilization of the Atlantic coast of Europe. By 2000, John Neal (a colleague of John Michell) had reconstituted the likely form of ancient metrology, essential for understanding the original design concepts behind ancient buildings, and he had also recovered the accurate model for the Earths size and shape known in antiquity. Howard Crowhurst introduced me to the world-class megalithic complex around Carnac in Brittany, providing tours in 2004 and 2007, and copies of rare tudes et Travaux magazines (from the late 1970s and 80s), from a past member of the AAK study group.

The overall context for the book only became clear upon reading the fourth volume of John G. Bennetts (18971974) The Dramatic Universe: History . Bennetts proactive approach to Gurdjieffs work on ideas facilitated my own contributions in chapter 9. My friendship with Anthony Blake, Bennetts pupil, helped refine my work on ideas and on significant numbers that enable the world to be understood in both ancient and developmental ways. In similar fashion, I could not have seen the significance of celestial harmony, first noted in my Matrix of Creation, without years of distance learning with Pythagorean musicologist Ernest G. McClain (19182014) regarding the harmonic number symbolism of the Bible and Plato, outlined in my 2018 Harmonic Origins of the World .

As usual, this book is greatly enhanced by the professionalism of the publishing team at Inner Traditions. Any remaining errors might be due to the scale of the story itself for any individual attempting to tell it. I am indebted to each of those mentioned for sharing knowledge, research, and images with me so that I may do the same with the publication of this book. Though not otherwise noted, all images have been used with permission, and I am grateful to each researcher and his or her family or institution for the trust placed in me to use the images responsibly.

I hope some readers will calculate for themselves and so understand the power of late Stone Age numeracy, which profoundly influenced the later civilizations, leading to our own.

INTRODUCTION

Angelic Transmission through Sacred Number

T HE IDEA OF ANGELS has recently broken free of an orthodox religious context, and angels are now seen as higher beings who care for human lives without any ecclesiastical sanction. Such beings are different from mere spirits, being responsible for an overall evolution of life on Earth: its entire scope of past, present, and future. This planetary role of angels is related to the emerging destiny of human beings, whose minds hardly comprehend the scope of the enterprise they are within. From an angelic perspective, the human race is worth helping in order to progress with their own work.

The angelic mind is founded on a deep understanding of numbers and the patterns they produce, patterns that belong to a universal framework science that defines what is possible and impossible within planetary worlds and their specific situations. These framework conditions caused this universe, and they have governed its development according to the Universal Will. Humans now have added their minds to the phenomenon of life on Earth, and these minds must have resulted from the framework conditions once life had evolved human beings.

That minds should arise on Earth is then, probably, no accident. Rather, they are essential to the purpose of the human essence class itself. Unlike the working of angels, who facilitate a living planets creation, living minds enable the universe to know itself. We are microcosms, or small resemblances of a greater whole, that can know nothing without our minds. The universemacrocosm or greater wholemust grow minds to become self-aware. The minds of angels, on the other hand, differ from ours in their furthering of Earths evolution: angels are part of the Universal Will to create the universe. In contrast, human minds are part of the developing self-awareness of the universe and a steppingstone toward human transformation into the Cosmic Individuality.
