Perfects Fifths in Functional Objects

 


Above we see an Archimedes Spiral used to measure the Perfect 5ths shown in the pattern at the top. The Pentagon shape can be clearly seen. The lines around the outside show you the direction you take as you add more and more perfect fifths until you reach four sets of TCGA at the centre. Each of these rosettes is 210* away from the other on the spiral but if you consider the spiral to be an opened out piece of string you get the pattern below. They are still 210* apart and the pink ones remain 210* no matter which way you measure them so long as you move anticlockwise from first to second position. The green lines though become 150* if measures as though around one circle. On the rod the ticks remain 210* the X’s are 150*. Every other one is 210* then 150* until you reach the sharp notes then it hiccups and two 150* appear then back to alternating. 

Now on a piano they are 7 semitones apart which is a perfect 5th no question of that but I find it interesting that they alternate 210* to 150* on the one circle pattern. 150* is all about questions whereas 210* provides the answers. 

Looking down on the pattern it could be an Easter Bonnet with roses at each of the points or 7 domes reducing in size fitted on top of each other with a small hole in each of the points on the map. Then pour water in through the top and watch it fall down through the dishes coming out at the openings and creating a Perfect fifth waterfall. 

So copper bowls on top of each other with a hole for the water that is poured into the top to escape. Stand it up and you have the shape of a Bee Hive………..so many shapes in our world we do not realise have connections. Enjoy your thinking. X 


The 210* Aspect for Perfect 5ths In Astrology, DNA Codons and Music


 Here we have the Perfect 5ths or 7 semitones in music starting from the first note C. It keeps on going until it returns the C once more and that closes the circle. 

Starting at the beginning we have in DNA Codon Letters T then C then G then A. So this pattern is a continuous TCGA pattern so contains all four letters required to create a Codon. 

T Orange C Blue G Yellow and A Green as in the elements. Fire, Water, Air and Earth. 

The triangles in the circle above shows  how it moves around the 12 zodiac signs the red line being the end and returning back to the beginning. 

It takes 7 Octaves to contain all Perfect 5ths……T C G A T C G A T C G A T C G A T C G A T C G A T C G A …….T and start over would be 8. 

Notice how the first three octaves are played on white keys then the next three on black keys and then back to white keys. 

All 12 positions in the zodiac are played here in a different order obviously…… Aries - Scorpio - Gemini - Capricorn - Leo - Pisces -Libra - Taurus - Sagittarius - Cancer - Aquarius - Virgo…..each appearing only once. 

This is the Perfect 5ths map but drawing Grand Trines between the 3 x T - 3 x C - 3 x G - 3 x A……….so grand trines but they are shifted out of the usual equilateral triangles perhaps because there is also some depth in here which we cannot see from this flat surface. 4 Grand Trines out of sorts in each of the elements. 


The purple lines can only be read as 210* but fromm different positions the green ones could be mistaken for 150*’s that said the Perfect 5ths are ALL 210*. 

Even ancient artefacts love to take on this shape. Enjoy your thinking. X
