Nature Calls

Even seen those little pilot fish that swim next to the heads of big shark species like Great Whites , Tigers etc . 

Have you ever wondered why the shark just doesn't turn round and chomp on that little morsel ?

The colouring of the fish acts like camouflage , preventing the shark from identifying the fish as prey . Sharks see in black and white according to recent research by Professor Shaun Collin and Dr Nathan Hart at the University of Western Australia's Oceans Institute. Hamish Jolly has been doing some solid research on shark's vision and the way there identify food .

Sacred Surfboard

Sacred Alien with Red and Black Flower Of Life  for David. 

Its a custom, with dimensions are 6' 4" by 20 1/4" by 2 5/8 , 34 litres .

The Flower Of Life patterns has been one of the really popular designs /artwork on the Formula Energy range of surfboards.

Its geometrical patterns in a whole range of colours that can be hypnotic, when you stare at the pattern to long . 

Surfers often tell us , whilst sitting out the back waiting for waves, you often sub consciously get caught up staring at the deck of your surfboard.

The pattern creates an optical illusion and an altered  depth of perception . The longer you look the more shapes and patterns you can identify.  

Its definitely has hypnotic qualities but is also very centering !

Artwork is the timeless sacred geometrical designs of the Flower of Life in purple but also available in many colours and varying designs , just click here to check them out .

The Flower of Life is a name for a geometrical figure composed of seven or more evenly-spaced, overlapping circles. This figure, used as a decorative motif since ancient times, forms a flower-like pattern with the symmetrical structure of a hexagon.

The perfect form, proportion and harmony of the flower of life has been known to philosophers, architects and artist around the world. Pagans consider it to be sacred geometry containing ancient religious value depicting the fundamental forms of space and time.

Figures as prominent as Leonardo da Vinci are said to have ascribed significance to the Flower of Life and three similar symbols, called the "Egg of Life," the "Fruit of Life," the "Seed of Life".

The ‘egg of life’ is said to form the basis for music as the distances between the spheres is identical to the distances between the tones and the half tones in music. It is also identical to the cellular structure of the third embryonic division (The first cell divides into two cells, then to four cells then to eight). Thus this same structure as it is further developed, creates the human body and all of the energy systems.

The Flower of Life around the World
One interesting feature of the Flower of Life is that evidence of its importance can be found in almost every major culture around the world. It can be seen in temples within the Forbidden City of China, in ancient synagogues in Israel, in the Buddhist temples of India and Japan, in the City of Ephesus in Turkey, carved into rock in Assyria, in Italian art from the 13th century, and in Cordoba, in ‘la Mezquita’ in Spain.
The oldest known examples of the Flower of Life are believed to be those present in the Temple of Osiris in Abydos, Egypt. Most archaeologists maintain that they are at least 6,000 years old, though some have argued that it dates to the 2nd century AD. The most peculiar feature of the Flower of Life in Abydos is that it appears that it was not carved into the granite but instead may have been burned into the granite or somehow drawn on it with incredible precision. It is thought to possibly represent the Eye of Ra, a symbol of the authority of the pharaoh.
