Hi Caleb,

Yesterday i forgot to mention the 22 and 26 connections of the Hebrew and Greek ( 22 chars/values) alphabets/gematria as well as our own 26 char (13 x 2) alphabet. 22 must have some meaning as the original Old Testament/Jewish bible has 22 books in it before another 17 were added to make the current Christian 39 books (possibly more in a Catholic bible as they have 70 books in total while most other versions have 66. (22 x 3)

I have been considering the geometry of the Cuboctahedron - a structure i consider fundamental to Universal structure on all levels in our current base dimensionality which is comprised of 13 vertices (12 outer plus the 1 central core point)  a structure that has 24 outer 'edges'. (There are 6 of them visible in my 3D logo). :-)

Make of what you will of the following sequence that compression and R-evolution of this structure initiated:

24 x 1/2 = 12 12 (24)

12 12 x 1/3 = 8 8 8 (24)

8 8 8 x 1/4 = 6 6 6 6 (24)

6 6 6 6 x 1/3 = 4 4 4 4 4 4 (24)

4 4 4 4 4 4 x 1/4 = 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 (24)

3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 x 1/3 = 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 (24)

2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 x 1/2 = 1 1 1 1...            ... 1 1 (24)

From one 24 bond spherical structure down to 24 one bond structures takes 8 steps using the sequence of 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/3, 1/4, 1/3,1/2 (7 'compressions') from the O riginal state.

By compressions i mean a spherical object with 24 vertices with 'single' strength bonds between their immediate neighbours are compressed into 12 double bond connections ( compare a C-C bond in chemistry with a C=C bond and a C=_C ( three bond) ) then down to 8 triple bonds etc down to a single 24 bond connection with 'itself'.

I derived this math sequence after watching a you tube video of Buckminster Fuller demonstrating part of the concept to students with a physical model (don't have the link to hand) but he calls the Cuboctahedron the Vector Equilibrium.

Cheers, Neophyte.

Hi Caleb,

with regard to your recent comment on Tris's Triplicities post:

I've been investigating similar concepts and would offer the following for your list:

92 - the number of naturally occuring elements in our Universe, #92 being Uranium.

60 - the number of seconds per minute/minutes per hour/degree or the base of the Babylonian and Sumerian number systems. Also the number of carbon atoms in a molecule of buckminsterfullerene.

Hi Caleb,your observations are most helpful and very much appreciated,I designed the glyph,symbol when in a purely logical questioning mode of thought,whilst  trying to answer the ultimate question of why we are all here,I had no intention of making a symbol using the word love.

My starting point was basic mathematical symbols,arranged along a dividing line,it was literally a revelation when I saw the word love appear as the answer.

Have you seen the other variations of the symbol? if not I would very much like value your observations.

In friendship

Philip

Hi Caleb,Sorry for the delay,and thanks for the welcome.

Welcome to the neoplatonist group that investigates the work and life of this chief of the Rosicrucians.

Hello my friend... I just read your profile...interesting. Anyway I too have the intuition without reading much pf anything actually. I skim and contemplate. I am also highly interested in developing an elemental theory, but realized their were likely others who could do it better. Perhaps you are one? either way I would like to hear of your most fundamental concepts which construct the core of your theory. Please message me or otherwise explain in simple refined terms the essence of your theory, at you leisure of course.
