Law of the Triangle From The Rosicrucian Manual 1918 (sixth edition 1934) “Trigonometry (from Greek trigōnon “triangle” + metron “measure”) is a branch of mathematics that deals with triangles, particularly those plane triangles in which one angle has 90 degrees (right triangles). Trigonometry deals with relationships between the sides and the angles of triangles and with the trigonometric functions, which describe those relationships.”— Wikipedia Triangulation is a technique used also to measure the height of buildings, the distance of stars if they aren’t too far away, the motion of planets, to locate people by their cell phone, to make maps, … all sorts of things. The Arabs and Phoenicians became excellent navigators of spaces without landmarks through the use of triangles. The Egyptians kept track of the height of Sirius in the sky as well as many other things using triangles. The sides of pyramids worldwide are made of 4 triangles.

Symbols are to the mind what tools are to the hand—an extended application of its powers.

Agostino Arrivabene ~ “Modern Virtual Wunderkammern”

"Wunderkammern are “rooms of wonders” showing how man sought in Nature the most varied oddities, embracing the supernatural and the dreadful. A sort of museum of paradises and hells on Earth, created by Nature and recreated by man in mirabilia and artificialia. I raise universal human values to images, or symbols, or, even better, archetypes that transfigure reality through a language bound to ancient mysteries, such as the Eleusinian Mysteries (the ancient rites for Demeter). Signs and images lead to an event that upsets the observer, but if they are investigated one discovers that their meaning is never fortuitous, although they often awake in myself through a technical procedure, as it used to happen among Surrealists in the first half of the 20th Century."
