The pinecone is universally revered as one of the purest naturally occurring forms of Sacred Geometry, its pattern being the flower's evolutionary precursor, having its spirals in a perfect Fibonacci Sequence, much like the geometry of a rose or a sunflower.ㅤThis ubiquitous formation in nature is a common type of phyllotaxis pattern, from the ancient Greek phýllon "leaf" and taxis "arrangement", which refers to the set of principles that govern the arrangement of leaves along the stem of plants. But not only in the plant world, these same principles govern the configuration of cycles of harmonic vibrations at all scales of nature, including in our DNA and in the orbits of the planets.ㅤThe pinecone symbol is one of the most mysterious emblems found in ancient and modern art and architecture.ㅤFew scholars realize this, but in different cultures the pinecone alludes to the highest degree of spiritual illumination, as well as the Lotus Flower and several other symbols that refers to the rotational symmetries of electromagnetism, which describes the natural forces of creation through the science of Light.ㅤThe Pinecone symbol can be found in the ruins of Indonesians, Babylonians, Egyptians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Buddhists and Christians. It also appears in the designs of esoteric traditions such as Freemasonry, Theosophy, Gnosticism and esoteric Christianity.ㅤThe pinecone has the same meaning for everyone: it symbolizes the science of light and its relationship with the mind and body through our vestigial organ, the "pineal gland" or "Third Eye", which represents the unified awareness that directs the evolutionary energy flow. The shape of the gland has a phyllotaxis pattern similar to that of the pinecone, hence its name Pineal Gland has its origin in the word "Pinecone".
