Introduction
This page provides a comprehensive reference to several foundational forms and symbols used across geometry, architecture, historical symbolism, and contemporary energetic-tool design. Each section is organized to answer four practical questions: what the form is, where it appears historically, how it is interpreted in modern symbolic language, and how it can be applied as a functional design framework.
The forms included here span both classic geometric solids and widely used symbolic motifs. Some, like the Pyramid and Tetrahedron, are structural geometries with clear mathematical definitions. Others, like the Triskelion and Infinity symbol, are symbolic motion patterns that communicate continuity, flow, and relationship. SBB coil forms bridge those two categories by combining physical winding geometry with symbolic and energetic interpretation in modern practice.
Taken together, these forms offer a shared design vocabulary: base and apex, center and rotation, looping exchange, triangular stability, and repeated proportional rhythm. Understanding that vocabulary makes it easier to evaluate why certain layouts are used, how dimensional relationships are selected, and how geometry and symbolism are combined in coherent tool design.
Pyramids
A Pyramid is a three-dimensional form with a polygonal base and triangular faces that meet at a single apex. In geometry, the term covers multiple variants (for example, square pyramids and triangular pyramids), but the square Pyramid is the most widely recognized in architecture.
Historically, Pyramid-building appeared in multiple regions rather than one single line of origin. Early West Asian civilizations developed tiered pyramidal temples (ziggurats) in Mesopotamia. In Africa, Egypt developed both stepped and smooth-sided stone pyramids, while Kushite/Nubian cultures in present-day Sudan built steeper pyramids for royal burials at sites such as Napata and Meroe. In the Americas, Andean and Mesoamerican civilizations built major pyramidal monuments, often as stepped structures with ritual architecture at the summit.
Major forms include stepped pyramids, smooth-sided (true) pyramids, and temple pyramids with top platforms. These forms vary by material and purpose: mud brick and stone in Mesopotamia and Africa, cut stone and fill systems in Egypt, and large platform-temple systems in Mesoamerica. Well-known examples include the Giza pyramids in Egypt, the Nubian pyramids in Sudan, and the Great Pyramid of Cholula in Mexico, the largest Pyramid by volume.
Structurally, Pyramid geometry places most mass near the ground and reduces cross-sectional area with height, creating high stability and efficient load transfer. This is one reason Pyramid architecture was repeatedly selected for monument-scale construction in antiquity. The form is durable, scalable, and clear in axial orientation, which supports both engineering function and symbolic readability.
Esoterically, pyramids are often interpreted as forms of ascent, concentration, and axis alignment: the broad base represents grounded material order, while the apex represents focused upward direction. In many modern energetic traditions, Pyramid geometry is treated as a concentrating pattern that can organize, direct, or refine field behavior. While these interpretations are tradition-dependent rather than universally scientific, the recurring symbolic theme is coherent convergence toward a unified point.
At Being Well, we integrate Tensor Technology with Cubit Measurements in our Pyramid designs to create a complementary synergy of energetic qualities, where form, proportion, and orientation work together as one unified system.
Triskelions
A Triskelion (also called a triskele) is a symbol based on three repeating elements radiating from a central point, commonly viewed as three spirals or three bent legs. The defining feature is threefold rotational symmetry and cyclical motion.
Historically, Triskelion forms appear in very early archaeological contexts, including Neolithic and Bronze Age material in places such as Malta and Ireland, and later in Iron Age Celtic visual culture. A distinct three-legged version is strongly associated with Greek and Sicilian contexts, where it appeared in art and coinage and became linked with Trinacria as a regional emblem.
In medieval and later periods, Triskelion motifs continued through heraldry and civic identity, including associations with the Isle of Man and other regional symbols. In modern usage, the symbol is found across art, logos, spiritual diagrams, and contemporary design systems. The core geometry remains consistent, but interpretation varies by tradition and purpose.
Esoterically, the Triskelion is often treated as a symbol of dynamic triads: three forces in continual relationship around a center point. Common symbolic readings include body-mind-spirit, creation-preservation-transformation, and birth-life-death. Across traditions, the shared idea is not static symmetry, but cyclical movement and regenerative flow.
From a design perspective, triskelions are useful because they encode motion and three-phase balance in a compact form. The rotational pattern can be applied as a visual and structural template for systems where circulation, transition, and interaction between three domains are central.
At Being Well, we incorporate Tensor Technology and Cubit Measurements in the design of our Triskelions to create a complementary synergy of energetic qualities, so each form and measure expresses more together than it does on its own.
Ankhs
The Ankh is an ancient Egyptian symbol traditionally associated with life, vitality, and enduring continuity. Its form combines a loop at the top with a vertical stem and horizontal crossbar, creating a distinct geometry that is immediately recognizable across religious art, temple reliefs, amulets, and funerary contexts.
Historically, the Ankh appears throughout pharaonic Egypt in both sacred and civic iconography, often shown in the hands of deities or offered toward rulers as a sign of life-force, blessing, or renewal. Over time, the symbol persisted beyond antiquity through Coptic adaptation and broader esoteric use in modern traditions.
Symbolically, the Ankh is commonly interpreted as the union of complementary principles: heaven and earth, spirit and matter, or cyclical and linear dimensions of life. In contemporary energetic language, the upper loop is often read as a circulating field and the stem/cross as grounded directional flow, making the form useful as a visual template for integrated balance.
At Being Well, we incorporate Tensor Technology and Cubit Measurements in the design of our Ankh forms to create a complementary synergy of energetic qualities, where loop, axis, and proportion work together as one coherent expression.
SBB Coils
In contemporary tensor and subtle-energy communities, “SBB coil” typically refers to a Nicola Tesla bifilar coil format used in harmonizing devices. The naming and exact geometry can vary by builder, but the core idea is a compact coil structure using paired conductor paths arranged in symmetrical patterns.
From an electrical-history perspective, bifilar winding concepts are older and well documented in classical coil design literature. In modern energetic-tool practice, SBB coils are used as geometric components intended to condition field behavior. This usage is practical and experience-based, and the terminology is not standardized in mainstream academic electromagnetics.
Technically, bifilar approaches are valued because conductor geometry changes how adjacent paths couple, how turns are distributed, and how the overall structure stores and exchanges energy. In modern symbolic-device construction, SBB coil forms are chosen less for decorative reasons and more for their repeatable geometric behavior: mirrored paths, controlled spacing, and compact symmetry that can be integrated into housings, plates, and hybrid assemblies.
At Being Well, our SBB coil designs pair Tensor Technology with Cubit Measurements to establish a complementary synergy of energetic qualities, aligning coil geometry and proportion so the complete design performs as an integrated whole.
Infinity Symbol
The Infinity symbol is the sideways figure-eight form (lemniscate) used to represent unboundedness. In mathematics, it indicates a quantity that does not terminate rather than a conventional finite number.
Historically, the symbol entered formal mathematics through John Wallis in 1655. The exact reason for his glyph choice is not definitively documented, but the figure then became standard notation for unbounded processes and values in mathematical writing. Outside pure mathematics, related figure-eight forms also appeared earlier as decorative motifs in historical material culture.
In technical usage, the Infinity symbol is most commonly used in limits, series, and other expressions where a variable grows without bound. It is also used in several adjacent technical contexts, including optics and camera-lens focus markings (for focus at very large distance) and paper/bookbinding marks for long-lasting archival paper.
Esoterically and symbolically, the Infinity sign is often interpreted as perpetual flow, continuity, and self-renewing process. Modern symbolic traditions frequently connect it with cyclical balance and interdependence, and in some contemporary mystical interpretations it overlaps with ouroboric themes of return and transformation. In design language, the two lobes and central crossover are often read as a balanced exchange between paired domains.
From a practical form perspective, the lemniscate is useful because it encodes reciprocal circulation in a compact geometry: two complementary loops joined by a transfer center. That makes it an effective template for layouts where continuity, coupling, and rhythmic return are the core design priorities.
At Being Well, we apply Tensor Technology and Cubit Measurements to Infinity-symbol designs to produce a complementary synergy of energetic qualities, supporting balanced circulation and coherent continuity across the full pattern.
Tetrahedrons
A Tetrahedron is a polyhedron with four triangular faces, six edges, and four vertices. The regular Tetrahedron, where all faces are equilateral triangles, is one of the five Platonic solids.
Historically, tetrahedral geometry has been studied since antiquity as part of the classical polyhedral tradition and later formalized within Euclidean geometry. In Platonic thought, the regular Tetrahedron was associated with the element fire because of its pointed, penetrating geometry. Over time, the form remained central in mathematics, crystallography, structural studies, and modern 3D modeling because its relationships are compact, exact, and easy to analyze.
From a geometric standpoint, the Tetrahedron is the simplest convex polyhedron and the three-dimensional simplex. It is also self-dual in its regular form, meaning its dual is another regular Tetrahedron. This combination of minimal complexity and high symmetry is why tetrahedra appear so often in mathematical proofs, spatial decomposition, mesh generation, and physical modeling.
In symbolic and esoteric contexts, tetrahedrons are commonly read as foundational fire geometry, directional ascent, and coherent emergence from a stable base. In contemporary energetic language, they are often used to represent concentrated upward expression, clear vector orientation, and elemental structure. While interpretations vary by lineage, the shared theme is primary structural order.
Practically, tetrahedral forms are useful in design because they provide rigid triangulated frameworks that scale well and maintain clear proportional relationships. They can be used as standalone forms or as modular building units in larger assemblies where stability, orientation, and geometric clarity are required.
At Being Well, tetrahedral forms are developed using Tensor Technology and Cubit Measurements to build a complementary synergy of energetic qualities, keeping structural relationships intentional so the final form carries both geometric integrity and coherent energetic function.
