Synopsis

In mathematics, a spiral is a curve which emanates from a central point, getting progressively farther away as it revolves around the point. Spirals are everywhere and involve all human thought and physical structure. From cutting edge quantum physics to ancient architecture here you will discover the role that Spirals play in our lives. The spiral is the age-old intuitive symbol of spiritual development and our identity with the Universe. It is found in cultures the world over and reflected in shamanism, serpent cults, dragon lore, geomancy, magic, mysticism, ritual art and dance throughout history.
