And therefore one asks …what is the microcosmic/macrocosmic relationship. I would like to say yes, from my understanding of ‘Sacred Geometry’.there is always something so special with the ratios of let us say the ‘Divine Proportion’ The smallest point is indicative of the Highest point. Click on photos below for enlarged image. In India, it was used in the construction of the Taj Mahal, which was completed in 1648. Renaissance artists of the 1500’s in the time of Leonardo Da Vinci knew it as the Divine Proportion. Green – Horizontal width of outside of left top section : Inside of top right section : Outside of top right section:.Blue – Vertical height of base of second level : Top of second level : Top of third level.Red – Vertical height of base at ground level : Top of first level : Top of second floor.Although it is rather asymmetrical in its design and difficult to measure photographically because of parallax distortions, the golden ratio lines of the green, blue and red rectangles conform closely to the major architectural lines, which represent: Notre Dame in Paris, which was built in between 11 appears to have golden ratio proportions in a number of its key proportions of design. This is discussed in more detail at The Parthenon and the Golden Ratio. There are, however, other dimensions of the Parthenon which appear to be golden ratios. Furthermore, using the second step of the Parthenon seems somewhat arbitrary. The illustration below shows one of the ways that the golden ratio is often reported to appear in its design. This, however, is subject to some debate, as the application of the golden ratio is often not accurately described in many sources. The ancient Greek Euclid ((365–300 BC) wrote of it in “Elements” as the “dividing a line in the extreme and mean ratio.” The Parthenon, built in 447 to 438 BC, appears to use it in some aspects of its design to achieve beauty and balance its design.
