I wrote a while back about the sacred geometry that informs the layout of the garden here at Lopemede. How the design was a download of sorts about how to harness the forces of nature that underpin the process of creation, development of form, and the fractal quality of the universe that connects all living things. I didn’t know it then, but I had only scratched the surface of what is a wide and deep topic. And recently I was prompted to develop the geometry further and to write about it here. It is not an easy subject to tackle, and I won’t pretend to understand it all. Though I am aware that an activation has occurred within this divine space that helps to unify and enliven the ground and all the beings that reside there.
The basic geometry that I started with in 2024 represents the outer harmonic level of Christ consciousness (where we are all trying to get to), and the inner discordant gateway, or the path back to Source (where we are now). Humanity has been stuck here for what feels like an eternity, but now we are breaking through into a more harmonious level of love and enlightenment. The central circle is the zero point, the point at which all life converges and all forces are contained within. The point from which we all emanate, and to which we shall all return in time.
And this is where the geometry lay for 12 months or so, at this point of emergence from All That Is, The interface between harmony and disharmony, and a recognition and purging of anything that interrupted the connection between the human level of consciousness and the pure frequency of Love. In real terms this represented a massive and painful adjustment for me. Working a space so large, navigating the intricacies of the angled beds, battling against perennial rye grass and a seed bed packed with thistle, nettle and dock pushed me to the very limit of what I thought I could endure. I also found this reflected in my personal relationships, reacting defensively to (wrongly) perceived attacks and misunderstandings on a daily basis.
With the advent of 2026, it became apparent that the purging was subsiding, and a new phase of alignment with community and soul’s purpose had begun. And so came the second part of the geometry. This time I was guided to add the inner level of consciousness; the first level at the beginning of Life iteself, water at the interface between Source and Humanity. This I inlaid with copper wire, with the addition of the 21 steps back to One. Within this level I’ve also marked out the male and female spirals – not related to gender per se, but to the balancing forces of divine masculine and divine feminine that between them represent the polarities inherent in material existence. Hidden and not yet inscribed upon the garden, are also the spheres of the zona pellucidum at the beginning of human life, and the merkaba field around each person – the field of divinity that holds the memory of who you truly are. All these adjustments and additions have added a sense of equilibrium to the garden. It definitely feels more settled, like it is becoming more certain of what it is and each part is gradually finding its right and proper place. So many of the plants are the same as last year, but things have been moved around, and even at the point of planting the location for things shifts until we find a spot where the plants are happy.
It’s been a very stormy start to the year with lashing rain interspersed with days of hot dry sun, and this has precipitated an acceleration of growth so that many things that would ordinarily flower and set seed in Autumn, are doing so now in June. There was a long period of holding when it was too wet then too hot to plant out, but now that things are finally in the ground they are really thriving. And so it is with me in some ways. I am gingerly picking my way through the myriad of available options and personas to find the patch that is truly me, and learning how to be happy and confident to be in that space. So the thistles and nettles, though they are many, are yielding in my hands and they don’t bother me so much now. The garden has taught me the power of resilience, the power of non-judgement, to push on when things seem impossible, because what matters is the end goal.
I feel there is a Sacred Geometry Part 3 to come as this very much feels like a year of sorting things out, working out what to keep, what belongs and what doesn’t. And after all that is done, what will be left is a space that is in balance, a dynamic equilibrium of moving parts that cooperate and coordinate to create a self-sustaining ecosystem that marries the forces of humanity with that of Gaia in her wildest form. We are meant to tend and cultivate, to modify and refine, and we create masterpieces in this way. The Sacred Garden has become such a thing – a place of limitless possibility, of subtle beauty, a place that all beings may come to thrive and to know their own divinity. It will not be obvious to all, but I’m used to that now. Some won’t see, some will see and be afraid, so will approach and retreat as they’re not ready, and some – the ones the garden calls – will come, linger, marvel at what they see and feel there, and leave inspired, awakened, and eager to spread their own Light however they can. But through it all I will be here. like a priestess who tends the temple, lighting the torches and clearing the paths, telling the story as best I can, evolving and changing as the garden does the same.
I am finally in a place of deep gratitude for the opportunity to be here. I can finally acknowledge the gifts that have been given to me. The path to this place has been hard for me, but I am emerging into the sun and seeing the fruits of my labours. There is much work still to be done, and I still worry that only I can see what the garden represents, but I also know that I cannot make assumptions about what people will perceive, I can only do my work with the highest of intentions and continue to build on the portal of Love that is being created here. It’s a very special place, and only time will tell what I will be required to build in Part 3.
