Pythagoris and the Crown Diamond |
||
 |

| The vertical and horizontal
legs of a right triangle correspond to the width of the Tree of Life,
when drawn with the ratios of Noah's Ark. This "cubit" is the
measurement that pertains to the individual. The right angle's hyptenuse
is the cubit that pertains to the congregation. In the Wheel of Theodorus, the horizontal cubit travels the perimeter. This same principle is responsible for the generation of regular polygons, as the Diamond's angles are circumscribed and one cubit or the other travels the circumference, the procession of sides ending where it began, thus forming the polygon. |
