KC Hive HeART
The hexagon and honeycomb designs represent Sacred Geometry. The Hexagon is the strongest and also most space efficient shape. The hexagon represents balance and harmony. The bees use it in their hives to make the most out of their precious wax to hold their honey. Sacred Geometry can be found throughout nature, molecular structures, and even inside of us. Sacred Geometry is known as the language of the Universe. I picked this design because of the powerful energy of the hexagon, as well as the connectedness and community that is represented by the honeycomb to perfectly represent our KC community network (Our KC Hive).
