Life, the Multiverse and Everything
Sometimes, a cluster of haphazard images jockeying for attention fuse surprisingly into a fresh idea.
Recently for me there was an intensifying synchronicity of Scotland, Keswick, Auroras, and life in the Multiverse. It peaked on BBC2 in the Garden of Cosmic Speculation (in Scotland) with its designer Charles Jencks (married to Maggie Keswick) instructing a bemused Melvyn Bragg (frequents Lakeland Keswick) in the mysteries of the Fibonacci Series; I was reminded that it was some years since I last looked at that wonderfully organic sequence of numbers, the key to cosmic growth, that begins 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89 ... and goes on infinitely adding its last two digits together until the logarithmic spiral of life takes its last turn and completes another form.
If that sequence of numbers, inextricably related to the Golden Section (1:1.61803) is not only found in shells and branches and sunflowers and pineapples but the very manifestation of universes, then our astrological matrix must also form a set of terms within its language.
So let’s apply the Fibonacci numbers to the Wheel we all know and love:
1.
First point of Aries. Seed-point. Beginning. Logos. As a natural fractal - astrologically the 12th harmonic - no more and no less than entire unto itself.
One God, “the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen.”
GROUND ZERO OF OUR BEING.
1.
Again. 1 + 0 = 1... the first whole degree: still part of a single Light, but as a fractal, the first thought of 12̊, of Cosmos.
“The only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in Being with the Father. Through him all things were made.”
DAY 1.
2.
1+1=2, still fractal Aries, at 24̊, therefore still part of the Godhead -
“the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshipped and glorified.”
A point of Light, of Mind, has become a Trinity.
DAY 2.
Now, still in radix Aries, we enter the pre-creative phase of the Trinity:
3.
2+1=3. The fractal of 3̊ Aries, 6̊ Taurus, generates undifferentiated fiery matter.
DAY 3
5.
3+2=5 Aries, whose fractal is 0̊ Gemini, an outbreath of fiery gases.
DAY 4
8.
5+3=8 Aries, its fractal of 6̊ Cancer coalescing fiery liquids.
DAY 5
13.
8+5=13 Aries, fractal 6̊ Virgo, creating differentiated fiery materials.
DAY 6
21.
13+8=21 Aries. Its fractal, 12̊ Sagittarius, distributing volatile fire - the light of swirling galaxies, the light and life of the Spirit throughout the Cosmos.
DAY 7
This ends the Aries phase, the Big Bang!
Next - Creation...
34.
21+13=34 or 4̊ TAURUS - becoming 12th-harmonic 18̊ Taurus, fixed earth, forming consolidated materials, “the earth without form, and void”
DAY 1
55.
34+21=55 or 25̊ Taurus, which is 0̊ Aquarius, fixed air.
“And God made the firmament ... and God called the firmament Heaven.”
DAY 2
89.
55+34=89, or 29̊ of hot, moist GEMINI, fractally 18̊ Pisces, to make mobile atmospheres with rain and seas conducive to plant-life.
“God called the dry land earth, and the waters...seas. ... The earth brought forth vegetation...”
DAY3
144.
89+55=144, or 24̊ Solar LEO at fractal 18̊ Capricorn, light and measurement.
“And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years. ... And God made the two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; he made the stars also.”
The young earth is still hot, but cooling into continents and erupting into mountains.
DAY 4
233.
144+89=233, 23̊ SCORPIO, fractally 6̊ Capricorn.
“So God created the great sea monsters ... and every winged bird.”
Distinct oceans, forests, volcanoes, deserts and polar icefields - the habitat for the dinosaurs and their descendants.
DAY 5
377.
233+144=377, 17̊ ARIES of a whole new cycle! Fractal 24̊ Libra introduces the mammals and
“creeping things” “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God ... ” (Aries!) “...male & female he created them” (Aries-Libra.)
DAY 6
610.
377+233=610, or 250̊ = 10̊ SAGITTARIUS of this second cycle.
Its fractal is 0̊ Leo -
so, the 7TH DAY, the day upon which God rests from his labours and which is blessed by Him, is of course
SUN-DAY.
