Just thought I'd post the following info here for me to use as a reference, should I want to, in this discussion we're having now on archetypes. These are some concepts I used in an essay I wrote some years ago on this topic.
INTERFERENCE PATTERNS
In Quantum physics, many think that the energy of matter is held in place by unseen pre-defined “interference patterns” that are a response to subtle forces.
It's said that as vibrations slow down and continue to do so, they crystallize into those forms and structures that we see in our three dimensional world. #5
The writings of physicist Fred Allen Wolf echoed these same sentiments when he said that the universe is constructed by those “interference patterns” that exists between mind/consciousness and those frequencies located on the physical spectrum.
MORPHIC FIELDS AND MORPHIC RESONANCE
In fact Rupert Sheldrake’s “morphic fields” are also “interference patterns” in, as quantum physicist Bohm terms them, the “implicate order” and the “explicate order” presented in his model of the universe which is a holographic one.
The “explicate order” being comprised of everything in our local physical environment and the “implicate order” being understood as an all encompassing ‘consciousness’.
Sheldrake, referred to that all encompassing “consciousness” as the akashic records which are comprised of morphic fields and units from which the “explicate order”, draws from through a feedback mechanism that he calls “Morphic Resonance”.
Sheldrake’s “morphic field’s”, at least in this context, possess memory banks built up by humanity throughout all time, and are projections of intentions, thoughts and deeds that manifest dominant patterns where some of them are said to be archetypal too. The more universal and dominant those patterns are, the more powerfully they can manifest in various ways into our explicate order.
For example, the BVM apparitions are a case in point. This Christian icon has been worshipped for the past couple of thousand years and has an enormously powerful morphogenetic field where we can speculate that anyone whose stochastic resonant vibration is on level with her’s, can entrian into her field to get new illuminations. Because of the strength of that field, a field that has been fortified by those thoughts and prayers of millions and millions of Christians throughout the ages, this may explain why there have been so many Marian apparitions and communications from her.
HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES FROM VARIOUS SOURCES ON INTERFERENCE PATTERNS
Interference Patterns (The Influence)
Throughout the ages, philosophers and metaphysicians have said that there is a connection that exists between sound and form -- and that once we become aware of this, we then have a much greater understanding of creation.
John 1:1...
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God; all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men.”
Another term for the Word, is the Logos.
Ostensibly, there are many other religious traditions that believe that tones derived from the “Music of the Sphere’s” are the source of creation only each have their own way of expressing that. In the Sanskrit tradition, for example, the sound vibration of “Om” is said to be the seed from which all creation came forth.
Rudolph Steiner talked about the simultaneous ‘everywhere’ ubiquitous tone or sound-ether that via the Word-cosmic speech “works within substances in an organized principle“ #1
The notion that there is a relationship between sound and form is elegantly demonstrated in the study of Cymatics* where the sound vibrations will produce different patterns of sand on a Chladni glass plate. The higher the frequencies, the more complex the patterns are.
And as I recall, Tibetan Buddhists have been known to model their Mandela’s from similar type experiments that go as far back as the eighth century.
Dr. Hans Jenny, who is one of the pioneers in the field of Cymatics said that vibrations resulted in what he called “interference patterns.

Bell's Theorem
Bell’s Theorem#4 has proven that superluminal quantum connectiveness has provided us with a feasible explanation about various kinds of psychic phenomena. Bell concluded that something non-local, that is unknown to science, is the “causal mechanism” that allows for seemingly inexplicable paranormal events to take place. That it is possible for some people to communicate to or get information from someone else through telepathic means who is simultaneously hundreds of miles away; and this implies that we can do that across dimensions too.)#4
