Rosalind Thorp has taken a theme that pervades all cultures--the belief in an intangible common link among all things that has been sensed but never quite identified, until now. It is cosmic energy. In The Essential Pattern she explains it visually and verbally. Follow this link to read the author's foreward.

Her thesis considers the cosmos, including man and his actions, in terms of multi-dimensional energy patterns in motion. She explains the architecture of energy pathways which occur as cosmic bodies orbit.

Nothing happens by chance, and everything is significant. Thorp emphasizes the need to consider cycles, showing that all things are cyclical because the nature of cosmic energy itself is a cyclical continuum, which allows the phenomenon of the return of energy, which explains why history is similar from time to time, yet never quite repeats itself.

The Essential Pattern is an introduction to the crystalline nature of the cosmos. The energy processes lay the framework for comprehension of crystalline intelligence and crystalline technology. It prepares the reader for a second book, Neptune in Focus: Portfolio of an Energy.
