Archimedes Spiral In DNA Codons

 

Here we have the DNA Codon TGC starting in the East Aries T Fire element and Musical C it moves in orange to F# Libra G Air element forming a 6 semitone Tritone before moving on to B Pisces C Water element. This forms a Perfect 4th in music or 5 semitones. From there in order to complete the shape we need to move back to T again but it is now in the next octave so angles in a little with the final green line which is a Minor 2nd or 1 semitone. This pattern played over and over C F# B will create what is known as an Archimedes Spiral which can go on to the centre or forever if it is coming out of the centre. 

An Archimedes Spiral discovered in 225 BC is a mathematical curve around a circle moving at a constant speed. Could the musical notes themselves determine that speed as it certainly determines the shape why not sound too. The distance between the lines remains constant. It is used by Doctors who ask patients to draw a spiral by hand to determine tremors in the drawing which could help diagnose things like Parkinson’s disease. It is also the spiral of a vinyl record so I am happy to connect it to the Record of life pattern too. I like the idea of being a spiral under control. X Enjoy your thinking x
