From Petals to Souls.
The Interconnectedness of all things.
Lately, I’ve been retracing my steps down a rabbit hole I had long since abandoned. Why, you may wonder? At times, my efforts feel insufficient, like a shovel too fragile to lift the stones on my path, or perhaps I’m wandering through shadows, needing more light to illuminate the darkness.
It’s as if I’m a miner deep within a cave, and my headlamp’s battery is on the brink of fading. Yet, despite these obstacles, I continue to dig.
It all began with a small, unassuming opening—just a question: Where did flowers come from? Why do they exist, and what threads bind them to everything around us? At that moment, the curiosity sparked something deeper.
Thus, even when I lingered, worn by fatigue—“I’m tired, Grandpa!”—that deep, unyielding voice from within— my ancestors—echoed in my mind, tormenting me: “ Well, that’s too damn bad. You keep diggin’. ”
Our ancestors are not just the people from our current bloodline. When we think of our ancestral council, we often assume it consists only of those from our immediate lineage in this lifetime. But true ancestry goes beyond the limits of blood relations—it’s about soul lineage.
Have I figured it out? Not yet. Will I ever? I can't say for certain. But what I do know is this: now, you’re in this rabbit hole with me. And though we may never uncover all the answers, I believe it is my duty to share what I’ve unearthed so far, gardener.
Let’s begin.
The first flower to be discovered—the primordial flower—is believed to resemble a magnolia. This was approximately 140 million years ago. Read that again: One hundred and forty million years ago.
How fascinating.
Furthermore, what’s even more fascinating is that scientists are still pondering the flower’s bisexuality.
“We’ve discovered that the original flower most likely combined both sexes in a single bloom. This is a question that has puzzled botanists for nearly 200 years.”
Yet, despite the allure of this discovery, it’s important to note that their findings—calculated based on the probabilities of various characteristics this flower might have had—are still not entirely accurate. In the end, it remains... just a rabbit hole.
A deeper exploration into this rabbit hole led me to the Flower of Life—one of the most recognized symbols in the ancient and modern world. This symbol, woven into the fabric of time, consists of 19 intersecting circles spaced evenly apart, creating an intricate pattern— that comes from the seed of life.
This pattern is thought to embody the interconnectedness of all life forms and can be interpreted as the cycle of creation.
Each circle builds upon the next, and each has a distinct meaning. Layer upon layer, the design reveals the hidden truths of the cosmos, offering glimpses into the mysteries of life itself and holding the keys to unlocking powerful, forgotten knowledge.
The seed of life— from my understanding, imitates the seven days of creation as it has seven perfect circles, and with each movement from its exact radius, Vesica Pisicis—which is obtained by the intersection of the first two circles in the Flower of Life—is formed.
Besides being an intricately beautiful symbol, the Flower of Life transcends culture and is found in many ancient traditions, from Egyptians to Buddhism.
Historians can date the flower of life to 645 B.C. based on Assyrian relics. The oldest known representation of this symbol was found in the Temple of Osiris, which is believed to be about 6000 years old.
The flower of life is a beautiful and ancient symbol depicted in many cultures across time. It's found in Egyptian, Hindu, Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, and Judaic artwork, religious structures, and manuscripts.
The Flower of Life is closely linked with sacred geometry—the belief that certain geometric patterns and shapes represent the universe's fundamental structure.
Everything in the universe is geometric.
It is also believed that philosophers such as Pythagoras and Plato used sacred geometry to better understand the world around them. The Platonic solids—though already known to ancient Egyptians—are geometric forms that correspond to the four elements: Earth, Water, Air, and Fire.
The fifth element, known as Ether, Prana, Chi, or Ki, is the universal life force. The dodecahedron, the fifth and final Platonic solid, represents it.
From my understanding, the life force is activated when one has the kundalini awakening. Drunvalo Melchizedek mentions in his book, ‘Flower of Life,’ that there are certain realities that many people agree on, and these realities are called levels of consciousness.
He also mentions that because of particular events that happened between 13,000 and 1600 years ago, we fell into an uncontrolled spiral of consciousness moving down through the dimensions of consciousness.
We were out of control, and it was very much like falling through space.
This reminds me of the movie Interstellar.
Cooper faces a difficult decision when there’s just enough fuel left to reach the one remaining planet. He’s already come to the painful realization that returning home—home being Earth—is no longer an option.
With insufficient fuel for him and Dr. Brand to reach their destination, Cooper pulls out of the mission. It’s in this moment, in the vastness of space, that he falls into what could only be described as a ‘black hole.’
Drunvalo describes it similarly: the sensation of spinning, spiraling faster and faster until something extraordinary happens. Cooper enters a different dimension of consciousness.
I believe it was the 4D, though I can’t quite recall. But once there, Cooper comes to a profound realization—that all along, he was trying to communicate with himself across dimensions. And it’s his daughter, back in the 3D world, who ultimately connects with him.
How fascinating.
I wonder whether Cooper’s experience of falling—followed by his sudden awakening on a different planet—could be seen as a kind of Kundalini awakening.
In many spiritual traditions, such a transformation is described as a shift in consciousness, a deep awakening triggered by an intense, almost disorienting process.
Cooper's journey, with its spiraling descent and subsequent emergence into a new reality, seems to mirror this type of profound inner awakening.
Could it be that, at that moment, he was not only physically falling but also undergoing a spiritual transformation? Entering a higher state of awareness?
How intriguing.
This read took me on a whole journey and I loved every bit of it. Good read!
