Light Language: My Journey from Sacred Geometry to Creating Grids

Light Language: My Journey from Sacred Geometry to Creating Grids

After years of studying Reiki, working with crystals, and exploring other spiritual practices, I began encountering the term sacred geometry again and again.

Something about the idea deeply intrigued me. I was familiar with shapes and symbols from spiritual and healing traditions, but I began asking myself a different kind of question: Does a shape have meaning beyond its appearance? Can color and shape carry a particular quality? And can they serve as tools in a process of change?

That curiosity led me to Yifat Tzadok. Through Yifat, I discovered an entire world I had never known—Light Language. She introduced me not only to working with colors, shapes, and grids, but also to the story of Starr Fuentes and the lineage through which this knowledge had been passed down.

The Lineage: From Starr Fuentes to the Present

Healing was part of Starr’s life from childhood. According to the biographical account shared within the lineage, her grandmother was a healer, and Starr spent many hours by her side, learning about medicinal plants and healing.

Later in life, Starr continued searching and studying until she arrived in Mexico and met Esperanza Mercado, a Mexican curandera, or traditional healer, who became her primary teacher. According to the lineage’s tradition, Starr lived and studied alongside Esperanza for about three years. This was not a course as we might know it today, but an apprenticeship—spending time with the teacher, practicing, serving, observing, and learning through life itself.

This approach also gives us the concept of Caught Teaching—learning that happens not only through words or books, but also through being present with the teacher and working alongside them.

At the end of that period, according to the lineage’s account, Esperanza sent Starr out to share the knowledge beyond Mexico. From there, an international lineage of students and teachers began to take shape, carrying the practice to different parts of the world.

What Is Light Language?

In this practice, color and geometry are treated as a language.

- A shape is like a word (a pyramid preserves; a cube encloses)

- Color adds a quality to it (red energizes, green heals, yellow brings mental clarity)

- Position gives it context (a heavenly connection, an earthly connection)

- And a sequence of shapes and colors creates a sentence (a green pyramid at the heart, a gold cone at the head)

When many of these “words” are brought together, they form the central tool of Light Language: the grid.

What Is a Grid?

A grid is an arrangement of shapes and colors created around a particular intention or process. But the most important part happens before the first shape is drawn—with the question: What is the goal, and what truly needs to change to get there?

Two people may ask for exactly the same thing—a relationship, a livelihood, self-confidence—yet their obstacles may come from entirely different places: fear, a lack of trust, difficulty setting boundaries, or perhaps a need to strengthen something that is already there.

That is why, to me, a personal grid is not a “relationship grid” or a “money grid” taken from a ready-made template. It is created and tailored specifically for each person—shaped by their story, what they want to create, and the process they are willing to go through to get there.

For Example

Goal: I want to change jobs

Energy to support: I need to learn something new, which means putting in time outside my working hours

Stage: I send out résumés and get no response

Set: I quickly become frustrated and give up on the idea

The grid takes this whole picture into account. It is not magic that replaces choice, action, or personal responsibility—it is a tool that offers space to pause, clarify an intention, look deeply at what is happening, and give the process expression through color and geometry.

From Curiosity to a Way of Life

What began as curiosity became a path. More than ten years have passed since then—years of learning, practicing, and working with Light Language.

Over the years, I have used grids at different times in my life—at crossroads, when making decisions, and during processes in which I wanted to create change. I have also used them in connection with people close to me, and along the way, I have seen many meaningful changes—in my own life and in the lives of those around me.

How I See This Tool Today

After more than a decade of learning, exploring, experimenting, and seeing how this tool has accompanied processes in my own life, I feel the time has come to bring it into my work with others.

I want to sit with someone, truly listen to what they bring, explore together what lies beneath their initial request, and formulate a clear, precise intention—and from there, create a personal grid for them.

Not a generic grid. Not merely a beautiful drawing. But a grid that grows out of a process of listening, exploration, intention, color, and shape.

Perhaps that is also the simplest way I can describe Light Language today: taking an inner process that can sometimes be difficult to put into words—and giving it a language of color and geometry.

And what began years ago as a curiosity about sacred geometry is now becoming a new chapter for me: using a tool that has been part of my life for years to help others create movement and meaningful change in their own lives.
