The Tritone or the villain of the piece. The 180* aspect or Opposition. We see here in the 8 octaves a Triton from T to G can only go back to T which is in the next octave so NO DNA Codons can be created here. It colours all the circles red from the colour associated with the opposition. It has 6 semitones.
Here we see the six opposition lines all of which cut through the centre and make sure that there is no peace to be found there with all the clashing intense sounds of the Tritone.
The unstable sounds of the Tritone create dissonance, tense restless energy, a.k.a. The Devil in Music. Diablos. Blues and jazz often use tritones to create suspense, a menacing atmosphere, great for psychological thrillers, intense, unstable a sense of unresolved issues. The ear cannot find a place to rest here it creates an itch that must be adapted by trying to expand outwards or inwards anything to get to a different sound 2 notes pulling in opposite directions that just want to find some peace. The Simpsons music is diablos well that contains two little devils in one place. In more ways than one Tritones are disorientating.
The push me pull me concept …… a tug of war feeling. Like mirrors that do not like what they see so pull away. This hard aspect requires a compromise. It wont come easily but finding that ability to see the other persons perspective and learning to integrate shows a maturity that only comes with time. Blame, its not me its you, never being aware of the other persons needs only your own. Me Me Me only I count no wonder the Devils name comes into it. Its a revolving door eventually if you can learn to share first its you then me. If we could learn to adjust by pulling one side over a little out of the centre then perhaps that ball of fire would lose its power and indeed some peace could be found. I would avoid adding this to a piece of music whenever possible.
As a 1/7 Nine Star Ki TGC DNA Codon I have a Tritone in my triangle T to G is a Tritone…..then G to C is a Perfect 4th and C back to T in the new octave is a Minor 2nd…….perhaps pulling into that green perfect 4th could help in this situation. Enjoy your thinking. X
