Before the first atom assembled itself in the cooling aftermath of the Big Bang, the mathematical relationships that would govern all of physical reality were already latent in the structure of space itself. This is the intuition at the heart of sacred geometry : the ancient understanding that the universe is not a random accumulation of matter and energy but a precisely ordered manifestation of mathematical archetypes — forms so fundamental that they appear everywhere, from the spiral of a nautilus shell to the arrangement of seeds in a sunflower to the orbital ratios of the planets.
