The star tetrahedron, also called a mer-ka-ba (light-spirit-body), is a configuration formed within the first 8 cells of life. The merkaba is said to be a VEHICLE of consciousness. Arranging 8 merkabas together creates this 64-tetrahedron grid matrix, a perfectly balanced geometry that is theorized to be the underlying structure of the vacuum, the fabric of space.

The 64 point tetrahedron is made up by joining eight star tetrahedrons at a central point. The shape contains within it the cube, the octahedron, the star tetrahedron and the cubeoctahedron.The systems theorist Buckminster Fuller devised it to be an accurate way to conceptualize space. He called this form the Isotropic Vector Matrix. Isotropic meaning the same in all directions.

The 64 Tetrahedron Grid is made up of 64 tetrahedra. The outer surface is composed of 144 triangles. The surface of the 64 Tetrahedron Grid contains a total of 25.920° degrees, the same amount of years in the Precession of the Equinoxes.

The number 8 represents stability so by squaring this energy, 64 tetrahedrons form the greatest stability. The number 64 is found in numerous systems:

• 64 codons in human DNA

• 64 hexagrams in the I Ching

• after conception, 64 is the maximum number of cells during cell division before they begin to differentiate 

• appears in various religious texts

“The 64 tetrahedron grid is the first harmonic of the cuboctahedron geometry and what eventually becomes, with scalar octave growth, the infinite holofractographic vacuum structure of the entire universe.”
