Soloman’s Temple and Attempts to reduce it to 32 Triangles

 Here we see two sets of the game The Other One of the Pair………..both contain 16 triangles one is the under reading of the other so all 64 codons of DNA appear between them, or with just one set if you set them up on glass and could read the underside.  I presumed that the game Solomans Temple which I have only managed to create in 34 triangles at the last count could be joined together and perhaps create a game of 32 for Solomans Temple. As you can see it looks simple enough to find a way in to connect without creating a duplication but no I have yet to find it. 

Here we see both sets that together give us 64 codons of DNA the gold lines denote areas where if you add a triangle it will duplicate itself so thats a no no. The purple dots are where you could add a new triangle but not without duplicating again. So as you can see there is no way in to join the pair so the only thing you can do is remove a triangle and try to reconnect them that way. So far I have failed and it still seems it is impossible to create a Soloman’s Temple game with less than 34 triangles. That said I remember for years thinking Soloman’s Temple could not be made up of less than 36 triangles.  So I will continue to try.

The I Ching is The One which becomes 2 then 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64 so in my mind I do not feel happy to settle on the number 34 being the least amount of triangles needed to create Soloman’s Temple of 64 codons, somehow its just not the right number to associate with DNA. So I will keep trying, wish me luck. 

Finally I have an answer and the game is only possible in 34 triangles. No lower count would work. X 

The Other One of the Pair and Soloman’s Temple in their smallest form

 

This is the smallest set of 16 triangles that makes up the game The Other One of the Pair……a mini version of Soloman’s Temple. 

Soloman’s Temple is a game made up so far of a minimum of 34 Triangles in which all 64 DNA Codons can be read. The game above is smaller with 16 triangles in varying positions which show all Dna codons  which when you flip the game over it shows the opposite colour e.g. T has A on the back and C has G and vice versa. So this game needs to be read on both sides. 

My point here is that if this smaller game can be done in 16 surely the larger game can be done in 32. I have yet to achieve that and 34 seems to be the best result so far.  Watch this space. X 

The Other One of The Pair 27th June, 2025

 Another set of 16 from the Game the Other one of the pair…………

Peace enhancing version of the 16 triangles of DNA double sided which contains all 64 codons of DNA> Putting it together is very much a game like Soloman’s Temple because it is your Temple that engages when you fit the pieces together. Some can take days others hours and rarely but possibly within 15 minutes. Remember that what you can see has its polar opposite on the other side of the game because one thing is always attracted by or to another there is no escaping this fact. Enjoy your thinking. X 

The Other One of The Pair as a game of 16 Triangles.

 

I can barely believe it I have managed to make up the game The Other One of the Pair with just 16 triangles…………does that mean I should now work towards getting a count of 32 in the game Soloman’s Temple………oh dear it took decades to get that game from 36 to 34 and now I have to consider the possibility that it can be done in 32. Wish me luck x

Soloman’s Temple and The Other One of The Pair and their Patterns

T meeting A and C meeting G

6 GGG GGA GAG GAA AGG AGA AAG       AAA

Read from right to left…

8 CCA CCG CTA         CTG TCA         TCG TTA        TTG

7 GGT GGC GAT         GAC AGT         AGC AAT       AAC

Read from right to left…

1 CAC CAT         CGC CGT TAC         TAT         TGC      TGT

Read from left to right…

9 GTG GTA         GCG GCA ATG         ATA         ACG      ACA

Read from right to left…

4 CAA         CAG CGA CGG TAA         TAG         TGA      TGG

read from left to right…

3 GTT         GTC GCT GCC ATT         ATC         ACT      ACC

Read from right to left. 

So when reading left to right the number sequence is…

28143976 but if reading from right to left you also have to read it as 28143976 so in reverse. 

So when looking for pairings for the Game The Other One of The Pair we find them as above. In the usual I Ching Map of The Word based on 28143976 its interesting to note that all eight rows are usually read from left to right but in order to pair them up with their partner number we read left to right then loop back right to left and so on creating a snake like pattern from top to bottom.

1 2 3 7

5

9 6 4 8

Don’t worry too much about the number 5 in this pattern as it does NOT occur here but if required I would change 5 to a number 2. 

The pattern above shows us that if you pick a Nine Star Ki of say:

1/7 TGC that would create its opposite in 9/8 ACG

1 becomes 9 and 7 becomes 8…..T becomes A G becomes C and C becomes G……..all partnering with their opposites. 

In the game Solomans Temple we make a pattern which contains all 64 DNA Codons but in the game with a minimum of 34 triangles. The Other One of the Pair you need only make 32 codons but with the same again on the underside so only 17 triangles are needed. 

The I Ching The Word sequence is…… 2   8   1   4   3   9   7   6 the two outers are 2 and 6 partners… next two 8 and 7, next two 1 and 9 and finally two middle 4 and 3 partners.  So again a clear pattern and reason the numbers appear in this sequence. 

Lets take another example 3/1 ATC partners with 4/9 TAG again each partnering correctly. 

2 8 1 4 3 9 7 6

6 7 9 3 4 1 8 2

Reading 2 8 1 4 from left to right and 6 7  9  3 read from right to left. 

In this pattern TGC is read from left to right and then you turn the circle and read the top line AGC right to left……..fish swimming in opposite directions it can be referred to but infact the moment you draw a circle around the its a different story. 

Enjoy your thinking. X 

The Other One of The Pair in Soloman’s Temple of 17

 At last I have managed to do the game The Other One of The Pair as a set of 17. As the least I have been able to create in the Solomon’s Temple game is 34 then I knew it must be possible to get this game down to 17 and I have done so here. I still think 34 an unusual number for Soloman’s Temple and when it was 36 it seemed so right because there are 36 letters in a DNA I Ching Crystal and yet I have got it down to 34 which makes me wonder if perhaps a 32 is possible. Time will tell. It took me 12 years to get the 36 down to a 34 so if it is possible lets hope I can achieve that in less that 12 years. Enjoy your thinking. 

This is The Other one of the pair where we create a game like Soloman's Temple but instead of seeing all 34 codons in front of you half of them are to the rear of the pattern. Imagine the triangles are on a piece of glass that you can see the underneath of …….then you will have all 64 codons of DNA in just 34 for Soloman’s or 17 for The Other One of the Pair. 

The Half game of Soloman’s Temple a.k.a. The Other One of The Pair

 

Here we see a game of 20 triangles which create all 64 DNA codons as any missing can be found on the reverse side of the pattern just as we see one side of a string of DNA. To make a game of 20 it has used 5 partial hexagrams instead of 6 pieces each hexagram has only 5 pieces. 

In order to reduce the game to its minimum (so far) of 18 we can adapt and end up with a full six piece hexagram as well as the fives. 

Now we have managed to reduce the game down to 18 pieces with one 6 piece and 3 5 piece Hexagrams. 

The game has yet to be officially named……..a game of two halves came to mind but I am currently settling on The Other One of the Pair……..a more scientific angle to it. Enjoy your thinking. X
