Geocache Description:


Napad ze moje prvni kes bude tato mysterka, vznikl jako darek - mozna danajsky - pro kamarada kacera a to v dobe, kdy jsem ulovila jeho kes Pentagram a zacali jsme hovorit na tema vyznamu symbolu. Ukazalo se, ze zatimco ja o jeho symbolu vim celkem dost, on o mem oblibenem vi jen to nejznamejsi a tehdy prohlasil, ze se na to bude muset nekdy podivat. Protoze znam jeho casovou vytizenost, je vznik kese jeden z moznych duvodu, ze se opravdu podiva a myslim, ze i ostatnim nebude vadit zahloubat se do taju jednoho z nejzprofanovanejsich symbolu, jehoz vyznam rozhodne neni jen ten, ktery mu prisoudil fasismus.


Prvni dolozene hexagramy pochazeji z doby 800 - 600 pr.n.l., tedy vice nez 3000 let po prvnich pentagramech. Byly nalezeny:
A = 0 ve starem Egypte, kde slouzily amulety tohoto tvaru jako pomucka nekromantie
A = 1 za krale Salamouna v dobe Izraelskeho kralovstvi, nosil prsten s timto znakem
A = 2 ve staroindickych hinduistickych chramech, zde symbolizuje tzv. nara-narayanu
A = 3 v antice, kde se amulety s timto symbolem pouzivaly jako ochrana proti horecce

Hexagram se v judaismu nazyva take Davidova hvezda, nebo-li Magen David - "Daviduv stit" je symbolem zidu, judaismu a statu Izrael. Jeho nejstarsi dochovane pisemne a graficke knizni pouziti lze nalezt v:
B = 0 Leningradskem kodexu
B = 1 Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia
B = 2 Samaritanskem Pentateuchu
B = 3 Septuaginte

Davidova hvezda ma v judaismu nekolik duchovnich vyznamu, mezi nez patri napriklad spojeni trojuhelniku jako spojeni muzske a zenske energie, hexagram jako symbol zivota, protoze darcem zivota je Hospodin a jeho jmeno JHVH obsahuje. Dalsi vyznam je:
C = 0 oznaceni Davidova jmena - pismeno D (recky delta)
C = 1 jiny nazev pro toru
C = 2 eschatologicky, sest vsednich dnu obklopuje Kralovnu sabat - vecnost
C = 3 oznaceni pro pout starovekych zidu z Egypta

V hinduismu dva trojuhelniky hexagramu symbolizuji bohyni Shakti jako ztelesneni zenskosti a boha Shivu jako muzsky princip. Mysticke spojeni techto trojuhelniku pak predstavuje Stvoreni, vznikle bozskym spojenim muzskeho a zenskeho principu. Hexagram je take soucasti zobrazeni jedne z caker spolu s lotosovym kvetem s dvanacti okvetnimi listky. Je to:
D = 0 temenni cakra
D = 1 srdecni cakra
D = 2 cakra korene
D = 3 hrdelni cakra

Take dalsi cirkve (krestane a muslimove) pouzivaly hexagram ktery, na rozdil od pentagramu spojovaneho cirkvi predevsim s okultismem a dablem, mel nekolik vyznamu. Mimo jine byl symbolem spriznenosti s zidovskym narodem, zobrazoval hvezdu, k niz putovali Magove a dale byl:
E = 0 hexagram symbol Jezise
E = 1 hexagram symbol ocistce
E = 2 hexagram symbol Boha
E = 3 hexagram symbol proroku Davida a Salamouna

Hexagram, stejne jako pentagram, byl pouzivan i v astrologii a to ve smyslu symbolu planety Saturnu nebo makrokosmu. Vrcholy trojuhelniku hexagramu smerujici nahoru a dolu jsou chapany jako spojeni dvou elementu a to
F = 0 zeme a vody
F = 1 ohne a vody
F = 2 zeme a ohne
F = 3 ohne a vzduchu

V relativne nedavne historii byl symbol hexagramu pouzit take u jednoho fylozoficko - ,,nabozenskeho" sdruzeni a to u
G = 0 Maltezskych rytiru
G = 1 Templaru
G = 2 Scientologu
G = 3 Svobodnych zednaru
kteri chapou hexagram mimo jine jako znazorneni prolinani zdanlivych protikladu v prirode, aktivniho a pasivniho, nevedomosti a moudrosti nebo dobra a zla.

Na zaver pak zbyva uz jen zminka o specialnim typu hexagramu, tzv. unikursalnim hexagramu (hexagram jednim tahem). Ten byl poprve pouzit v reckych a hindskych mytologiich jako symbol oddanosti bohum. Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) zpopularizoval unikursalni hexagram mezi esoteriky, kdyz do tohoto hexagramu umistil ruzi s peti listky a dostal tak dohromady cislo jedenact, jez nekteri povazuji za cislo bozske jednoty. Take je tento symbol casty v ruznych pojetich satanismu.



Pokud se vam podarilo spravne vyresit predchozi otazky, nezbyva nez dosadit a spocitat souradnice finalky:

N 50° 2(A-D).(A-C)(B*F)(E+G)
E 015° 5(D+G).(E*G-A)(A*E)(C*G)

[En] First approved hexagrams are from 800 - 600 years BC, that means 3000 years after first pentagrams. They were founded:
A = 0 in ancient Egypt; amulets of this shape were used at necromantie
A = 1 in King Solomon´s time and the time of Israel kingdom, he had a ring with this sign
A = 2 in old Indian Hindu temples as a symbol of so - called nara-narayana
A = 3 in antiquity; amulets with this symbol were used as a protection against fever

Hexagram is aso called Star of David in Judaism, or Maged David - Shield of David is a symbol Jews, Judaism and the state of Israel. Its oldest written and grafic ustage in books can found in:
B = 0 Leningrad Codex
B = 1 Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia
B = 2 Samaritan Pentateuch
B = 3 Septuaginta

Star of David has several spiritual meanings in Judaism, these are not among them:
C = 0 connection of male energy (fire) and female energy (water)
C = 1 symbol of life. The Lord is the giver of life and his name JHVH contents
C = 2 indication of David´s name, letter D (delta in Greek)
C = 3 eschalogically, six common days surround the queen sabat - eternity

In Hinduism two triangles symbolize the Shakti Goddess as embodiment of femoninity and the Shiva God as the male principe. Mystic connection of these triangles represents Creation on the base of divine connection of the past of on chakras together with the lotus flower with twelve flower leaves. It is:
D = 0 Bindu - chakra
D = 1 Anahata - chakra
D = 2 Mulandhara - chakra
D = 3 Visuddhi - chakra

Christian and other churches used hexagram too. Unlike pentagram, which the church connected with ocultism and devil, it had several meanings. These are not among them:
E = 0 hexagram as the symbol of alliance with the Jewish nation
E = 1 hexagram as the symbol of the prophets David and Solomon
E = 2 hexagram as the star of creation followen by Magicians
E = 3 hexagram as the symbol of God

Hexagram, as well as pentagram, was used in astrology too. As the symbol of the planet of Saturn or macrocosmos. The tops of the triangle of hexagram pointed up and down are understood as connection of two elements:
F = 0 earth and water
F = 1 fire and water
F = 2 earth and fire
F = 3 fire and air

In a relatively short history the symbol of hexagram was used by a philosophical - "religious" association whitch is:
G = 0 Malthese knights
G = 1 Templars
G = 2 Scientologists
G = 3 Freemasons
who acknowledge hexagram, besides other things, as an illustration of connection of illusory antithesises in the nature, active and passive, ignorance and wisdom or good and the evil.

If you managet to correctly solve the problems, now you can do these:

N 50° 2(A-D).(A-C)(B*F)(E+G)
E 015° 5(D+G).(E*G-A)(A*E)(C*G)
