Sacred geometry has been used for thousands of years, it explains and teaches the structrue of the universe. The Metatrons Cube, hovering above Metatrons head, this is a very powerful symbol to work with, it represents the universe and everything that is held within it. We can also see the Merkabah which represents the light body within the symbol and this is represented by the shape of a six pointed star meaning heaven on earth. Also within this symbol we can see all the platonic solids, these represent the elements within the universe, fire, water, earth, air and spirit.
The mandala is a drawn representation of the points in the body where energy is transmitted or received. These points create 3 or 4 dimensional mandalas that are constantly changing. Mandalas then are created by every thought form energy, by every emotional energy, by every energy sent out or received on any level of the universe!
When drawn, the circle is the principal element since it lies at the heart of the creative principle. It is the representation of cosmic life, from the smallest atom to the largest planet.

Mandalas are to be found all over the orient and always used as a tool to facilitate contemplation and meditation. This process of experiencing Mandala, has the potential to move the contemplative into awareness of his or her spiritual body . The contemplation of Sacred Geometry by of studying or creating Mandalas (open-eyed meditation) can bring the student to spiritual enlightenment.
Long before that great teacher (Guru Padma Sambava) traveled to Tibet with the healing and centering concepts of Mandala, Native American Shamans had already discovered that same healing power within the circle. Much of the symbolic geometry of Native American art and ritual is rooted in the balance of the circle and its natural division…. the four directions; North, South, East, and West. The famous Lakota Shaman “Black Elk,” called the circle the “Sacred Hoop
