Sacred Geometry is a representation of the fabric of space, time, and life itself. Numerous ancient civilizations and religions based many ideas and theories on the geometric nature of life. This subreddit is a place to share an understanding of this knowledge through artwork and discussion.

“Sacred Geometry charts the unfolding of number in space. It differs from mundane geometry purely in the sense that the moves and concepts involved are regarded as having symbolic value, and thus, like good music, facilitate the evolution of the soul.”

I don’t completely understand sacred geometry, but I get a sense of peace and understanding when I draw in geometric patterns. I’m not an artist by any stretch of the imagination, but I am somewhat in the midst of an existential crisis of sorts, and I find that I am drawn to…well…draw.
I understand that many hold sacred geometry as exactly what is implied, sacred, so I apologize if my lack of understanding comes through in my “art.”
I know what this means to me, but I would be interested to hear what more learned people in this area can see from it and perhaps give me insight into more understanding of sacred geometry.
I have been doing floor plans for a house Im thinking about building. Im sure I want it to be in sacred geometry. I have been thinking about metatron's cube, flower of life or bee hive shape. But I also think about an octagonal shape (I dont know if Im saying it right. I mean two squares forming 8 points). I am not an expert about sacred geometry, feng shui, nor any enegertic or symbolic meanins behind shapes. I want to build a home that brings life energy in, making good circulation of prana, and also brings property. What is in my mind right now is perhaps doing the main building in the flower of life shape, where each circule or part of circule is a room, and in the center is a inside garden and the front is the living room (or vice versa). And I also thought of doing arround it, in octagonal shape, outside things like gardens, pools, and ousite kitchen, and maybe in the same shape, the rooftop. What do you think about?
I want a tablet and drawing software where I can create geometric art like sacred geometry or Islamic art. Procreate is one I see often on Instagram, but I absolutely loathe Apple products. To say the way they operate is "non- intuitive" is an understatement--they're more like random and nonsensical to me.
But what is the alternative? Can Illustrator on a Surface Pro do the same thing as Procreate on an iPad? If it can I can't find any videos about it. Any thoughts? Recommendations? Thanks!
I ask this because in physics it is possible to understand what is happening. In a physics or chemistry question a hypothetical scenario is created, where formulas are used to explain natural phenomena. But what exactly happens with geometric calculations? What is the metaphysics behind these calculations? Are we trying to calculate what exists in a metaphysical space independent of our reality, or are they just mere calculations that humanity has realized a certain logic to?
In short, what happens in geometry from a metaphysical perspective?
I don't really paint aside from with the family. I hope you all like it! I know, my blending needs work, it was just an afternoon paint :)
