The Flower of Life: an ancestral universal symbol
History of the Flower of Life
1. Origin and history
The Flower of Life is a sacred geometric symbol composed of intertwined circles arranged in a hexagonal shape, creating a perfect floral figure. It represents the harmony of creation, universal balance, and the unity of life.
This motif has been found for thousands of years, in different cultures and civilizations across the world:
Ancient Egypt: engraved in the Temple of Abydos, it appears there as a very ancient mystical symbol.
China, India and Central Asia: present in Buddhist temples and mandalas
European Gothic Art: Motifs in Stained Glass, Rose Windows, and Sacred Architecture
Ancient Greece and the Islamic world: used in sacred mathematics and spiritual settings
It is a universal motif, transcending cultures and religions, linked to the geometry of life itself.
2. Geometric structure
The Flower of Life is formed from a single circle, around which other circles are added in a perfectly regular manner. This creates a figure with 19 main circles (in its most common form), which contains:
- The Seed of Life (6 circles)
- The Egg of Life (7 circles)
- The Triple Vesica Piscis
- Metatron's Cube (by drawing certain lines on it)
And all forms of sacred geometry
It is thus considered the matrix of all creation, containing the plans of the universe, of life and even of the human body.
3. Spiritual symbolism
The Flower of Life represents:
- The origin of life and the perfection of the living
- Unity among all beings and universal interconnectedness
- Harmony, balance and regeneration
- The sacred vibrational field that connects everything in the universe
It is often used as a vibrational tool, as much for meditation, protection, as for energetic purification.
4. Contemporary uses for humans
The Flower of Life is today a very widespread tool in the practices of:
- Lithotherapy (to recharge crystals)
- Energy purification (places, objects, aura)
- Spiritual development (visualization, harmonization)
- Subtle protection (against mental or electromagnetic pollution)
Concretely, it allows:
- To energetically recharge your stones, jewelry, pendulums, cards
- To structure water and food to increase their vitality
- To meditate by connecting to universal harmony
- To strengthen your anchoring and your spiritual connection
5. Uses for animals
The Flower of Life is just as beneficial in supporting animals in their energetic well-being:
- Under their bowl: to energize their water or food
- Under their cushion or rug: to improve their sleep, soothe their emotions
- In their living space (box, kennel, room, enclosure, etc.): to harmonize the environment
- During an energy treatment (Reiki, magnetism): to amplify and balance the energy field
It does not replace medical or veterinary action, but it supports emotional, vibrational and spiritual work in a gentle and non-intrusive way.
6. How to use it (humans and animals)
Possible formats:
- Printed (paper, cardboard, fabric)
- Engraved (wood, copper, stone, metal)

8. Recommendations
Always use it with a clear intention: the Flower of Life amplifies what you wear
Clean it regularly (by fumigation, sound, light or visualization)
Avoid using it for negative or manipulative intentions: it is linked to the cosmic order and acts according to the law of resonance.
Conclusion
The Flower of Life is much more than a decorative symbol: it is a powerful vibrational tool, at the service of healing, harmony and consciousness.
It supports both human evolution and the energetic balance of animals, creating a field of coherence and love around each one.
