We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars…
the stars form a circle, and in the center we dance.
-Rumi, 13th century

The Sacred Circle

The primary lesson that the Wheel teaches is about balance. The center of the wheel is metaphorically many things, including the center of the Self, spiritual illumination and the gateway to ascension. As you start to bring yourself into balance in all the aspects represented in the Wheel, you will naturally move toward that center.

The Center (referring to the hoop)
In ancient symbology the center stood for position without magnitude, a unit of consciousness with its center everywhere and its circumference nowhere. It also symbolized one-ness, all-ness, God the absolute—the one in all, the all in one. Inherent in the center is the power of creation, growth. The center of the wheel represents this and more. It is:

"The location of the interdimensional portal, the gateway to ascension The alchemical fifth element, which is spirit Alchemical gold—light, the sun as center of the solar system and as spiritual illumination The heart chakra Christ love, unconditional love, unity consciousness—the capstone of the pyramid A place of perfect balance of Being The center of the universe, the Great Central Sun The heart center of Earth, which is Shamballa The heart of human existence" -From Metatron's Wheel, Portal to the 5th dimension

A Star Gate (referring to the hoop)
Inter-dimensional portal. The circle is an inter-dimensional gate or doorway that an individual can move through in full consciousness to reach higher dimensions of existence. Seen clairvoyantly it is a translucent sphere—or more accurately, a tube—containing multicolored rotating “wheels within wheels”.

A Symbol of the Cosmos
It is no accident that the wheel shape has been a cosmic symbol for cultures all over the world. The wheel or circle speaks to our deepest and most innermost self and is an integral part of All That Is. Ancient peoples knew this intuitively. Joseph Campbell, who studied the mythology and symbolism of humans worldwide and found numerous examples of the circle in religious art, concluded, “The whole world is a circle. All of these circular images reflect the psyche.” Manly P. Hall, a great metaphysical scholar and philosopher from the 1920’s wrote about the circle, “One of the simplest lines and figures, the whole secret of corporeal nature emerges…The Trinity of the circle (center, radius and circumference) shows the Divine Trinity…The circle begets nothing of itself as it is already complete, consisting as it does of an infinitude of sides. It is the greatest of all polygons…”

“Within each of us is a sacred triangle which must be activated before we are free to move through the Doorway of the 11:11(ascension). The three points of this triangle are love, wisdom and power”

The circle with the dot at its center is the oldest symbolism for the primal womb containing the spark of creation. It depicts the creation of the world by God, with God immanent in His/Her creation. God is spoken of as a circle Whose center is everywhere. But the circle also tells the story of human as creator. The human ego or seed atom is at the center of each individual’s personal world; it defines the circumference of his or her own individual creative power. As above so below.

"The circle is perhaps the most ancient of mystical symbols and the most universal of all dances. It is the earth and the sun in eternal movement, an unbroken, unbent line symbolizing continuity and eternity. The circle dance represents wholeness. The dance brings life full circle." -From the book Sacred Woman, Sacred Dance.
