Chapter TwoPOWER OF LIMITSFor the ancients, sacred geometry formed the information system of Akasha. The quantum informationis a language of light and sound formation of intricate geometries. We experience these codes assymbols and images. The proportions and angular relationships form the structural coding, orparameters, that prescribes or limit. This is not a limitation; rather a physics for dimensional interplay,formation and transformation. These proportions and angulations are active perceptual resonance thatformulates our relationship and interpretations.The power of limits is the limitless power of creation. Renowned physicist David Bohm assertsthat everything is limited by the movement of the whole. Within that movement, everything stays inrelationship through proportions. Proportions are information sets. Though seemingly oppositionaldualities, which pose to tear things apart or even act out as destruction and dissolution, the proportionsare contained in a higher order. In our deepest nature, we bridge all realities, so we facilitate makingand resolving conflict. For us, limits imprison or enable. The archetype of the cosmic person is themacrocosm of the microcosm of the individual person. Within each, the ratios are the same. As theseratios limit us within ourselves, they also expand us through their affinity with the form of creation itself.In this way we are the “made in the image and likeness.”The function of limits is to integrate, create, liberate, transform, or transcend. Without limitsthere would be no creation. We would not reflect on our challenges. We would not be on our journey ofdiscovery, and none of this would have happened. We would not have happened. Limits are atransformational agency of limitless creation. Because we can bridge the limited and limitless realitydirectly through experience, the archetypal realm becomes consciously available to us as a force of selfdiscovery and transformation. From the perspective of the limitless, the mirror of the archetypal realmis the first limitation from which process ensues. Through limitation, we are able to explore our life,develop new understanding and fulfill our dreams. We can have experience. When we move to ourcenter, our bodies register the wholeness of life.The use of art materials is an application of the power of limits. When we make art, we areactualizing inner drives to out-picture unconscious intentions, structures and codes. All of our thoughts,dreams, hopes, judgments, beliefs, curses and prayers that we have ever imaged, drop into ourunconscious and strive to be actualized. We are also susceptible to the actualizing needs of thecollective unconscious. At a deeper level, we are one with all that is and can access infinite resourcesand actualize the highest possibility of “God,” fulfilling itself as women and men.The art we make reflects back to the inner consciousness and a “conversation” ensues. Witheach iteration, the limitation deconstructs and the soul expression becomes more evident. This processis a metaphor for life. It is also a demonstration of limits actualizing the limitless. Just as limitation gripsthe mind to have small perceptions, imagination uses limits in a way that gives the mind liberatingimages upon which to take flight. Things only appear solid. The thing is a by-product of the behavior ofessence actualizing itself through the creative process of everyday living. Whether made of physical ormetaphysical substance, there is an intentional essence. The physical and metaphysical appearance is18
