William Butler Yeats


Gyres and Sacred Geometry

The door to physical awareness comes through spiraling consciousness, gyres, if you will. Reality is simplicity, synchronicity, and simultaneity. Souls sometimes feel chosen ... their mission echoing through the gyres from source consciousness.

Theories are presented in many ways by teachers and authors based on their timeline, perceptions, and beliefs. We come to an author, a poet, an alchemist to some 'degree' ...

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) is one of the most significant poets in the English language of the twentieth century. He had a life-long interest in mysticism and spiritualism. On June 16, 1885, Yeats and several friends formed the Dublin Hermetic Order. Yeats became heavily involved with hermeticist and theosophical beliefs, and in 1900 became head of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.




Yeats and Gyres (Spirals)

Spiraling Gyres or Cones


Single Gyre


Double Gyres


Yeats married a woman named Georgie, who engaged in automatic writing.. Messages lead to the development of a complex and esoteric system of characters which often focused on cones and gyres to define history. One theory centers on a diagram composed of two conical spirals, one situated inside the other, so that the widest part of one cone occupies the same plane as the tip of the other cone, and vice versa. Around these cones he imagined a set of spirals. Yeats claimed that this image of the gyre, a spiraling form, or swirling vortex, captured contrary motions inherent within the process of history, and he divided each gyre into different regions that represented particular kinds of historical periods that could also represent the phases of an individual's psychological development.

Yeats' Theories About Gyres, and related links Yeats uses the word 'gyre' in many of his poems, including The Second Coming. This is a metaphor for the return to consciousness.
