Triangles of The I Ching Hexagrams - DNA Codons

Another way to look at DNA Codons is as triangles and three triangles make a codon or Hexagram six of them create a full cube or Hexagram as seen below. Life is made up of tiny little triangles as they come together to create amino acids which go on to create just about everything. You can see here they stack nicely too as twin codons which we of course know are actually cubes....so a flat pack or cube version of the paired Hexagrams as crystals create nice patterns too.



I call this game Soloman’s Temple were the game is to put together three triangles to create a codon but then for example if you have GAG you can add a T - GAGT and now you can create GAG and AGT from just four triangles. The smaller and more compact you can make the pattern the better. I have managed to make it from 36 triangles which contain all 64 codons of DNA. The perfect pattern is 9 of each of the elements T fire, G Air/tree, A Earth and C Water but its not vital.....just perfect. 



This particular pattern contains 8 Water, 9 Fire, 10 Air/tree and 9 Earth, 36 in total but not perfection.
You can read the patterns in any direction.....so AGT can also be read as TGA .......it is basically a version of Solitaire......as it is peaceful and relaxing to play often lasting ten minutes when your in the flow but some games can go on for two days if you refuse to give up and just keep on trying. Have fun. X

Making something useful from your triangles would be this wall light.....or as a game with two players ....
