This crop formation proudly displays the Vesica Piscis symbol, the most profound symbol in sacred geometry. The vesica piscis is a shape that is the intersection of two circles with the same radius, intersecting in such a way that the center of each circle lies on the circumference of the other. The name literally means the "bladder of a fish" in Latin. The shape is also called mandorla ("almond" in Italian).

Vesica Piscis

The Vesica Piscis, is an ancient symbol used in Pagan culture, Christian symbolism and sacred geometry, as well as various other belief systems. It is considered the Universal Divine form for creation- the union of cause and effect.

The two overlapping circles represent the physical world and the ethereal world; the world of humans and matter and time on one side coupled with the spiritual, causal and eternal on the other. The section where they intersect is called the Vesica Piscis-- "the bladder of the fish"; that is, the vessel that carries the water, literally of life.

Everything that is in our world of matter and time is created by action and thought from the causal and eternal world; all things must pass through the Etheric Field and over the bridge; between one world to the other in order to be.

This oval space between the circles, this Gateway between the worlds, is called the Akashic or Etheric Field. It is the “bridge between heaven and earth”. The Etheric Field carries vibrational frequencies, sound, color, Light. When we meditate and search the Spiritual Realms we approach the Gate. When we work with Healing Energies, Psychic energies, Mysticism and Magick we enter the Etheric Field and begin to co-create.

If we but trust, and be still we can connect with the Spiritual Realms by entering the Gateway. Whether we seek healing and changes, peace and comfort or guidance and belonging, attuning to the energies of the Chalice Well will help us .

Chalice Well Glastonbury

• Sacred Geometry of harmonic proportions 

The Vesica Piscis Symbol has long been an ancient Sacred Geometry symbol and is used on the cover of the Chalice Well at Glastonbury, England--- some say very near Camelot and Avalon. The Chalice Well is a spring of Healing Waters with legends linking it with Pagan and Christian cultures and the cover of this healing well is styled with the Vesica Piscis.

In Christian lore, it is said that the Chalice of the Last Supper was hidden in this well and that is why the waters run red. But this is overlapped from the more Ancient lore of the land- a healing spring runs there; a place of miracles where the Divine intersects with humanity.
