Inspiration
Spiritual Teachings
Introduction
As shared in the introduction on the parent 'inspiration' page, inspiration for materials published under the Art of Synthesis umbrella have as their source many years of research and contemplation of spiritual and metaphysical 'systems'. Two in particular lie at their heart - sacred geometry and the Science of the Seven Rays*, including the Science of the Antahkarana, or Science of Light Manifestation. Every Key of Light card is infused with sacred symbolism, many images reveal geometric structure, and the structure of the pack is derived through the principles of Divine Architecture: sacred geometry. The Seven Rays not only are the rainbow through their innate psychologies, but they also constitute the fabric of life itself. If geometry is the structure of space, the Seven Rays are its fabric. Infiltrating all forms, inseparable from that which gave rise to the birth of 'all', they are the very substance of Spirit in its most pure expression. The Seven Rays, by virtue of the seven spheres of group-consciousnesses (seed of life geometry), and, by extension, seven suits in Key of Light cards, are an integral part of Walk the Rainbow. The Science of the Antahkarana (meaning 'inner cause') is the art of building the Rainbow Bridge between personality and Soul, Spirit and matter and is the essence, or purpose, lying behind every introspection, musing and creative expression featured here. In short, there is nothing about these 'Rainbow' teachings that is random. Whichever way you approach the jigsaw, whichever 'system' you employ, the holistic symmetry is unquestionable. Diagrams in this section provide a glimpse into how esoteric symbolism, sacred geometry and the Antahkarana come together to demonstrate the Art of Synthesis. Walk the Rainbow explains not only the why, but the how.
