In modern spirituality the lotus flower echoes its meanings from ancient Eastern traditions but often with a modern twist:

-    Spiritual Awakening and Enlightenment: Just as the lotus emerges from murky waters to bloom in beauty, it symbolizes the journey from ignorance to enlightenment, from the material to the spiritual. It's a powerful emblem of transcending earthly challenges to reach spiritual purity.
-    Purity: Despite growing in muddy waters, the lotus remains clean and pure, symbolizing the purity of the soul or spirit amidst the chaos of the world. It encourages individuals to maintain purity of heart and intention.
-    Rebirth and Renewal: The daily cycle of the lotus closing at night and opening in the morning symbolizes renewal, rebirth, and the ever-present opportunity for a fresh start, thus focusing on personal transformation.
-     Connection to Spirit: In various cultures, the lotus represents a connection to higher consciousness or Spirit. It's seen as a bridge between the mundane and the sacred.
-    Balance and Harmony: The lotus's ability to float above water yet be rooted below symbolizes the balance between spiritual and material existence, encouraging harmony in one's life.
-    Self-Realization: The stages of the lotus's growth are sometimes likened to stages of self-realization or enlightenment, from being submerged in the material world to fully blooming in spiritual awareness.
-    Resilience: The lotus's ability to thrive in difficult environments is a symbol of resilience, teaching that one can grow and flourish despite adverse conditions.
-    Beauty in Imperfection: The lotus, with its roots in mud, also celebrates the beauty in what is often considered imperfect or less desirable. This can inspire acceptance and love for oneself, flaws included.
-    Meditation and Focus: In meditation practices, focusing on the image of a lotus can help center the mind, fostering peace, clarity, and a deep meditative state.
-    Chakras and Energy Flow: In yogic and energy work modalities, the lotus is associated with the heart chakra, symbolizing love, compassion, and the flow of life-force energy.
-    Healing: The lotus is also seen as a symbol of healing, both physical and emotional, representing the healing power of nature and the spirit's capacity to heal itself.

The lotus flower is not just an emblem of spiritual ideals but also a practical guide for personal growth, encouraging practices that lead to inner peace, balance, and a deeper connection with the universe. Many use lotus imagery in meditation, artwork, or wear it as jewelry to embody these qualities in their daily life.

Wings are often imbued with profound meaning:

- Spiritual Transcendence: Wings symbolize the soul's journey towards higher consciousness or enlightenment, representing the aspiration to rise above the mundane or material world.
- Freedom: They signify liberation from earthly constraints, whether those are physical, emotional, or spiritual bonds.
- Protection: Often seen as a sign of spiritual protection, offering comfort and a sense of safety on one's spiritual path.
- Transformation: Like the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly, wings represent personal transformation, rebirth, or the shedding of old ways to embrace new growth.
- Connection Between Worlds: Wings can symbolize the ability to move between different realms or states of existence, bridging the earthly with the spiritual, the known with the unknown.
- Empowerment: They embody the idea of gaining strength or power, often related to overcoming challenges or achieving personal empowerment.
- Healing: In some interpretations, wings are associated with healing energies, suggesting the capacity to heal oneself or others through spiritual means.
- Manifestation: The act of spreading wings can be seen as a metaphor for manifesting one's dreams or desires, taking flight towards one's goals.
- Intuition and Insight: Wings might also represent heightened intuition or insight, the ability to 'fly' above situations for a broader perspective.

These symbols encourage individuals to seek personal growth, embrace change, and connect with their higher selves or Spirit. Wings are not just about physical flight but about the journey of the soul.

Tantric Star

Activation: Initiation, Inspiration

The Tantric Star is formed by interlocking ascending and descending tetrahedrons (see below). Also known as the Mer Ka Ba, the Tantric Star functions as a 3-dimensional mandala, connect-ing us to our centre point, a stargate into the matrix of manifest reality. It describes the energy pattern created by the electromagnetic male and female potencies of creation as they come together to conceive atoms, Humans, the Universe - the seminal form that Consciousness takes as it initiates the polarisation of the Monad into the sacred enclosure of the Trinity, hold-ing the frequency of the 3rd dimension fully manifest in form.

This form protects against unbalanced magnetic emanations, e.g., mobile and cordless phones. With the addition of a circle around the form, it also protects against electric emanations.
