How To Make A Star Tetrahedrons

(Commonly referred to as a MerKaBa, and the Basis of the MerKaBa Meditation).

Presented by…

The MerKaBa Meditation calls for a visualization of the Star Tetrahedrons, and it can be very valuable to have a physical model.

The following black and white drawing is a jpg image which we can print out, cut out and then paste or glue together, constructing a 3-dimensional representation of the Star Tetrahedrons.

We may want to save and/or print out the following instructions, because gluing the Star Tetrahedrons together can appear to be complex at first. However, when we have glued one together, we will marvel at the simplicity.

To construct the Star Tetrahedrons we need to print four (4) copies of the pattern below.

We cut out the drawings, cutting all the way around the outside edge.

We will notice that there are two types of lines used in the drawing, solid and dashed, which indicate two (2) different directions of fold. The dashes are the 'inside' folds. The dash will be inside after we make the fold, the solid lines are the 'outside' folds. We will also notice there are four (4) flaps creating two (2) inside folds and two (2) outside folds. The outside folds get special attention as they will be our starting points, 'a' and 'b'. There are four (4) edges which are flapless.

We fold all of the edges, including the triangle edges, and then we are ready to paste or glue our Star Tetrahedron.

We glue flap 'a' to the inside of the flapless triangle's edge, which is the edge that flap 'a' naturally folds into. We glue flap 'b' to the inside of the flapless triangle's edge, which is the edge that flap 'b' naturally folds into. We now have one unit consisting of two 3-sided pyramids. We fold and glue the other three (3) units.

When we reach this point, construction seems to get a little tricky. We glue two (2) units together, maintaining our 'rule' to glue a flap to the inside of a flapless edge. We should end up with two (2) units of four (4) pyramids each.

We carefully glue the two (2) units together still following the 'flap-to-flapless rule'. We may need to fit the two (2) units in various ways, until we suddenly see the Star Tetrahedrons come together.

Alternative Small Star Tetrahedron MerKaBa Template

The MerKaBa Meditation calls for a visualization of the Star Tetrahedron, and it can be very valuable to have a physical model. Our personal Sacred Geometry is much larger than this small model. In order to have an idea as to the proper size, the upper tip of our upper Tetrahedron which is called the Sun Tetrahedron is above our head at a distance from the top of your head the length of our hand. i.e.: The distance from where your hand becomes wrist to the tip of your middle, longest, finger.

The lower tip of the Earth (lower) Tetrahedron is the same distance below your feet.

The Merkaba

Leonardo da Vinci knew the importance of the Star Tetrahedrons. Study the following graphic of Leonardo's Canon and note where the Star Tetrahedrons are located.

There is a chakra at each tip of our Tetrahedrons. Note where the Sun and Earth Tetrahedrons merge. The Tetrahedrons are often larger than many people realize. The circle centered at the Heart Chakra is the Sphere of Leonardo as referred to in the MerKaBa Meditation, and is a major key to the Christ Consciousness.

Some people would prefer to use a crystal, usually quartz to focus on their meditation. Crystal Star Tetrahedrons, commonly known as MerKaBa are available from a variety of sources including Celestial Lights.

Chapel Tibet is another human being who happens to pursue the Divine. Chapel Tibet has had a presence on Earth for many cycles of time. The name 'Chapel Tibet' was given to Chapel Tibet, by a feminine aspect of the Divine.
