Seven Levels of Energy!

The Dual-Opposing Triads of Six (3 + 3) Work Together to Manifest, or Create, (+1) a New Reality... Seven Discrete Levels of Energy Manifestation!

FOR THOSE WHO KNOW OF THE HUMAN CHAKRAS, OR "ENERGY CENTERS", THE DRAWING ON THE LEFT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT THE "CLASSICAL" ASSIGNMENT OF THE CHAKRAS ALONG THE SPINE OF THE HUMAN BODY. RATHER, WE SHOW AN ALTERNATE (and just as valid) REALITY FOR ASSIGNING THE CHAKRAS THAT ALIGNS WITH OUR VISION OF OUR BODIES AS INCARNATIONS OF THE TREE OF LIFE. OUR FOCUS ON THIS PAGE IS THE QUANTITY OF SEVEN, NOT NECESSARILY HOW IT MAY BE ASSIGNED. FOR AS WE WILL SEE, HUMANS TEND TO LIKE TO ASSIGN SEVEN LEVELS TO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS...IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS. ONE PRIMARY REASON FOR THIS IS THAT SEVEN IS A NUMBER THAT DESCRIBES ENERGY QUITE WELL...

The Birth of a New, More Specific & Complex, Level Of Manifestation.
Welcome to lucky number 7! When we follow the next "jump" in the progression of the Lightning Flash of Creation down The Tree Of Life, we notice that we are entering the first sphere in what will become the third triangle that comprises the upper Tree (See diagram at right). In other words, we are entering the final non-physical, balanced triad of manifestation that must be completed before we see the physical manifestation of our Will when the Lightning Flash emerges at #10. This "jump" from (4-5-6) to (7-8-9) is reminiscent of the transition from (1-2-3) to (4-5-6) that we discussed back at
Sphere #4.

Whereas the top level of (1-2-3) is representative of somewhat nebulous things such as our ideas (also called our Will to Create), the middle level of (4-5-6) represents somewhat more concrete concepts surrounding the manifestation of that Will. Furthermore, we will come to see that the bottom level of (7-8-9) deals with the elements of the physical world that are required to manifest something physical. Specifically, we will come to understand how the spheres of (7-8-9) align with our conscious mind's ability to reason about the three primary elements of physical reality: MATTER, MOTION, and TIME. Interestingly enough, if we wished to specify a single parameter that could describe and encompass all aspects of MATTER, MOTION, and TIME, we would call that parameter ENERGY..... So let's take some time out and discuss ENERGY, and how it relates to manifestation here at SEVEN (7).

Seven: Discrete (Quantum) Levels of Energy.
Back at Sphere #6 we introduced a specific implementation of Sierpinski's Triangle dealing with MATTER, MOTION, and TIME. When we
examine that Triangle, we see that MATTER is defined as MASS and how it changes relative to TIME. We also see that MOTION is defined as SPACE and how it changes relative to TIME. So in general, everything that relates to our physical reality can be described in terms of MASS, TIME, and SPACE (or alternately, LENGTH). This reflects the familiar "M,L,T" system of units (Mass-Length-Time) that scientists and engineers use to identify any and all physical measurements. If we use this M-L-T system to examine the fundamental units of ENERGY using the equation made famous by Einstein, we see:

E = mc2 = Mass*(Speed Of Light)2 = Mass*(Length/Time)2

Or, to describe it in words:

The units of Energy are a 3-way mixture of MASS, LENGTH2 and TIME2.

Or, to make it even simpler:

Energy is an effective measure of how any mixture of MASS, LENGTH and TIME interact with one another!

This very reason is why scientists and engineers utilize measures of ENERGY to characterize the operations and interactions of physical systems. Every system is said to have a specific LEVEL OF ENERGY, and changes in the system correspond to changes in system ENERGY from one level to another. Well, this is all fine and dandy as a primer to how measures of ENERGY work and how they are utilized by scientists and engineers....but how does this all relate to manifestation via the number SEVEN? The answer to this is:

Mankind has displayed a marked preference for analyzing ENERGY LEVELS in groupings of SEVEN.

As one means to illustrate this point, let us return to the discussion of Chakras that we presented at the top of this page. If you go to your favorite web search engine and do a search on "Chakra" you will find a plethora of sites that will give you all sorts of information about this system of beliefs for how the human body's ENERGIES are distributed over the length of our spine. As we alluded to in our introduction, the "classical" assignment of the Chakras tends to assign these ENERGY CENTERS starting at the rectum and working progressively upwards to the top of our head. However, our diagram at the top of the page displayed an alternate assignment of the Chakras to call attention to the fact that the system of Chakras can and does align to fit on the Tree Of Life! However, the key feature of the system of Chakras is that there are SEVEN ENERGY CENTERS associated with the human body. We are taught that each represents a different kind and LEVEL OF ENERGY associated with the operation of our physical (and non-physical) selves. Therefore, the study and practice of the system of Chakras can accurately be described as ENERGY WORKING among the seven levels of energy that make-up our existence.

So perhaps you are not totally "into" the Eastern philosophies and beliefs from which the system of Chakras was developed. Perhaps you are more attuned to the Christian/Catholic belief system. Well, would you consider it a coincidence that there are SEVEN HOLY SACRAMENTS in the rituals of the Catholic Church? Each of these Sacraments represents the attainment of a higher level of understanding, acceptance, commitment (ENERGY?) in the Catholic Church's "roadmap to God." Here again we see 7 different levels, 7 different signposts, with each one representing a quantum level of attainment.

Are these examples still not convincing enough to you? Still feel a bit skeptical? Well then we suggest that you may wish to jump ahead on this page to our discussion of the Seven Notes Of The Musical Scale or even the Seven Orbitals Of The Electron "Cloud". Or perhaps just perusing the Table of Numerical Archetypes for Seven, and meditating, contemplating, or otherwise considering the entries in this table, and how they relate to quantum levels of ENERGY..... And here are a few interesting web sites that also have various things to say about why we group things into sevens:

http://www.svpvril.com/images/MatEn2.html - A drawing which equates the energy spectrum for various different scientific and spiritual systems, in terms of SEVEN levels.

http://www.vermontel.net/~vtsophia/SEV1.htm - A treatise on The Law of Seven, the fundamental law of periodicity with how energy reveals itself.

http://www.fractiles.com/y7.html - Another recounting of many things "seven" in our cultures, literature, and history. There is also a link to a great book about integer archetypes from 1-10 at this site. 

 

Seven's Table of Numerical Archetypes.
Since 7 is the beginning of our Third Level of Manifestation on the TOL (closer to our final result at 10), this implies we may wish to make some changes in how we present (Manifest!) the material on these pages. Our
Table of Archetypes for Seven will, of course, expand by another column here from the one at Six. However, there will also end up being quite a few numbers of rows in the table for SEVEN. SEVEN is a number that holds a special place for us humans and our physical existence, which can result. Our cultures have tended to like assigning 7 levels to many of the elements of our lives. Our world has:

7 Seas, 7 Continents, 7 Deadly Sins, 7 Virtues, and there are 7 Brides for 7 Brothers. Don't forget the 7 Dwarves that Snow White liked to hang around with, and the "7 Sevens" of The Book of Revelation in the Bible.

Because the information in our Seven's Table of Archetype will take up a lot more space than earlier tables, we will no longer repeat the these tables on this main page.... just follow the link to its own page and investigate how Seven manifests in our universe... And make sure you EMAIL us to suggest some groupings of Seven that do not yet exist in our table!

Seven Quantum Levels of Music: The Tonal Scale of Sonic Energy.

One very good example of how we tend to assign energy scales in quantities of seven is the musical scale of notes. Anyone who has studied music or taken lessons to learn how to play a musical instrument is likely familiar with the following mnemonics for assigning letters to the musical scale of notes seen on the right:

"Every Good Boy Does Fine" helps students remember that the musical notes of E, G, B, D, and F are assigned to the 5 lines of the Treble Clef musical scale.

And then there is the following mnemonic that helps students remember the musical notes assigned to the "spaces" between the lines of the musical scale:

FACE is the word that describes how these four notes are assigned to the spaces from bottom to top of the Treble Clef musical scale.

And so HOW MANY unique musical notes are there in this repeating sequence????

http://home3.inet.tele.dk/hitower/octave.html - The Musical Octave - A great treatise that explains much about the physics of the tones we hear and how they fall into octaves (sound energy bands).

The Mozart Effect - A theory that believes that Mozart understood how sound can stimulate certain brain receptors and processing centers. Exposing children to Mozart's music, both in listening and in music theory, is believed to raise the children's IQ by several points. An interesting theory that gets one wondering about how music energy can affect the brain and its functioning.

 

The Seven Quantum Levels of Electrons: Matter & Energy.
Niels Bohr was an early 20th Century physicist who contributed much towards understanding the nature of physical matter, what it was composed of, and how it "worked." One of his most enduring contributions has been the Bohr model of the atom, which helps us understand the relationship between protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom, and the orbits of the electrons outside the nucleus. The diagram on the left shows the Bohr model of the helium atom, with its two protons and two neutrons snuggled-up together in the nucleus, and its two electrons filling the atom's first (lowest) Electron Shell.

Now we know that modern quantum physics tells us that the motion of the electrons around the nucleus is MUCH more complex than the simplified Bohr model seems to imply. However, the Bohr model of the atom is a very good one for thinking about how the ENERGY LEVELS of the electrons around the nucleus are structured. Science tells us that the structure of electrons around an element's nucleus determines how that element interacts with other elements. Specifically, chemistry deals with how the electrons of two elements exchange and share the ENERGY of their electron shells. Whether an electron is close-in to the nucleus or farther away from it is dependent on that electron's ENERGY LEVEL. Electrons enjoy having the ability to change their ENERGY LEVELS in order to interact with the electrons of other elements. This is how Matter mingles with and morphs itself in order to manifest new Matter... by "dealing" in electrons and their levels of ENERGY.

An element with 7 shells of electrons.
Since we are talking about SEVEN here, and how it relates to ENERGY, it would be beneficial to examine a certain popular element on the Periodic Table that has electrons in all seven of its electron orbit shells. That popular element is Uranium-238. You can see accurate electron orbit

diagrams, and learn everything else about Uranium at a site here and another site here. On both of these sites, we wish to focus on the fact that Uranium has electrons on all SEVEN Electron Energy Levels

7 on the Tree Of Life: Four Worlds & Three Links Between Them.
We can analyze the Tree Of Life in various different ways when we consider how many different ways SEVEN manifests itself on the Tree. Our pseudo-chakra
diagram at the top of this section shows how there are SEVEN different levels of spheres on the Tree from top to bottom. In this configuration we see that not all of the SEVEN levels are the same. There are two distinct classifications of levels: singular-sphere levels and dual-sphere levels, and they occur on the Tree, top-to-bottom, as follows:

Level 1

Our Brain

Singular Sphere #1

Level 2

Our Mouth & Left/Right Ears (Eyes)

Dyad of Spheres #2 & #3

Level 3

Our Left/Right Shoulders/Arms

Dyad of Spheres #4 & #5.

Level 4

Our Heart

Singular Sphere #6

Level 5

Our Left/Right Hips/Legs

Dyad of Spheres #7 & #8.

Level 6

Our Genitals

Singular Sphere #9

Level 7

Our Feet

Singular Sphere #10

We therefore associate these seven levels as seven unique "things"...pieces of ourselves. In our discussion below on how 7 manifests, the table above would relate to the equation 7 = 7 + 0 because there are unique 7 elements Matter in this table, but no paths or Motions. However, there are other ways that SEVEN manifests on the TOL. Let's now consider a mixture of elements (Matter) and paths (Motion):

Level 1

Our Head Triangle

Triad of Spheres 1, 2, & 3

Upper Paths

Connect Head Triangle to Heart Triangle

Pentad of Paths (5)

Level 2

Our Left/Right Shoulders/Arms & Heart

Triad of Spheres 4, 5, & 6

Middle Paths

Connect Pelvic Triangle to Chest Triangle

Pentad of Paths (5)

Level 3

Our Left/Right Hips/Legs & Genitals

Triad of Spheres 7, 8, & 9

Lower Paths

Connect Feet to Pelvic Triangle

Triad of Paths (3)

Level 4

Our Feet

Singular Spheres 10

This analysis of how SEVEN manifests in another way on the Tree exhibits a mixture of Elements and Action...of Triangles (One Sphere) and Paths. In our discussion below, this view of SEVEN on the Tree would be analagous to the equation 7 = 4 + 3 ... Four Elements (Levels) and Three sets of Paths that connect the levels. There is another way that SEVEN shows-up on the Tree, and this is as paths:

Upper-Left Path

Left HeadÛ Chest Interaction.

Connects Spheres 3 & 5.

Upper-Center Path

BrainÛ Heart Interaction.

Connects Spheres 1 & 6.

Upper-Right Path

Right HeadÛ Chest Interaction.

Connects Spheres 2 & 4.

Middle-Left Path

Left ChestÛ Pelvic Interaction.

Connects Spheres 5 & 8.

Middle-Center Path

HeartÛ Genital Interaction.

Connects Spheres 6 & 9.

Middle-Right Path

Right ChestÛ Pelvic Interaction.

Connects Spheres 4 & 7.

Lower-Center Path

The Sexual Act & The Birthing Act.

Connects Spheres 9 & 10.

Since there are paths only in this list, and no spheres, levels, or triangles, then this view of SEVEN would correlate in our discussion below to the equation 7 = 0 + 7 ... SEVEN paths, SEVEN types of Action. It is interesting to consider just some of the actions, or links of Motion, that we attribute to some of these paths in the table above. Think about our last entry in this table: The lowest, center path from genitals towards the feet. Can you explain why we assigned it the actions of Sex and Birthing? Can you see how these actions directly relate to our physical bodies in this area on the Tree? What about the other 6 paths on this list? Can you identify physical functions of the body that correspond to these paths?

(7=8) The Evolution of Energy Quanta Towards More Complex Manifestation.
We should all be very familiar by now with the Point & Ray (Matter="·" & Motion="®") diagrams we have presented on the pages for earlier numbers. We have employed these diagrams to illustrate the dynamic nature of each number, and how any number (N) will have (N+1) means of manifesting itself, in terms of various combinations of Matter(·) and Motion(®). As we reach larger and larger numbers, it gets more and more difficult to represent all of these different "modes of manifestation" in a single drawing. Furthermore, as the number of ways to manifest increase in number, we should place a greater emphasis on a more detailed examination of each unique mode of manifestation. Therefore, here at SEVEN we initiate a news means to explore the Matter & Motion Means of Manifestation. We provide the following table of the indexing equations for 7, with associated links to their own, distinct pages where we can examine each mode on its own. (NOTE: These tables are obviously incomplete at this time...as with everything here at Tree-O-Life.org, these pages will be growing and morphing all the time!)

Food is the Most Important Means for the Body to Increase Its Energy!

We all need food to survive, right? Eating food is the primary means for the human machine to gain energy. Quite simply, this is one reason why gourmet cooking has become such a sought-after art in modern society. It is already an enjoyable experience simply to intake material that raises your energy level, so given all the different ways that we can and do prepare food, we are able to make that "good thing" of eating oh so much better! TASTE! TASTE! TASTE! This is why I attempt to share some of the dishes that I have found to be most tasty and tasteful. Since we all have to eat, we should all strive to eat a little bit healthier, and a little bit tastier. Since this page is about SEVEN,and SEVEN is about ENERGY, and eating a meal is also about ENERGY, then let's examine the SEVEN different ENERGY LEVELS of a classical meal. Build your entertaining experience from the bottom-up of the following:

Apertif

Port Wine Cocktail with Peach Brandy.

Dessert
