* Lavishly illustrated with hundreds of detailed diagrams and
technical illustrations exploring the evolution and importance of
the starcut diagram * Shows how the starcut diagram underlies the
shaman's dance in China, the Vedic Fire Altar in India, Raphael
frescoes, labyrinth designs, the Great Pyramid in Egypt, and the
building of ancient cities * Explains how the starcut diagram was
used in building and design, how it relates to Pythagoras's
Tetrakys, and how it contains knowledge of the Tree of Life As
Malcolm Stewart reveals in this lavishly illustrated study, the
simplesquare figure of the Starcut diagram, created only with
circles, has extraordinary geometric properties. It allows you to
make mathematically exact measurements and build perfectly true
level structures without a computer, calculator, slide rule, plumb
bob, or laser level. Sharing his extensive research, along with
hundreds of detailed diagrams and technical illustrations, the
author shows how the Starcut diagram was the key to the building of
humanity's first cities and how it underlies many significant
patterns and proportions around the world. Using circles drawn from
the vesica piscis, Stewart explains how to create the Starcut
diagram and shows how this shape was at the foundation of ancient
building and design, illustrating the numerous connections between
the diagram and the creation of mandalas and yantras, stained glass
windows, architectural ground plans, temples and other sacred
buildings, and surveying methods. He also shows how the Starcut
diagram reveals ancient geometric knowledge of pi, the Fibonacci
sequence, Pythagorean shapes and seals, the golden ratio, the power
of 108 and other sacred numbers, and magic squares. Exploring the
Starcut diagram's cosmological and theological implications,
Stewart explains how it contains knowledge of the Tree of Life and
the Kabbalah. He examines how it relates to the Tetraktys, the key
teaching device of Pythagoras, and other cosmograms. Demonstrating
the ancient relationships existing between number, geometry,
cosmology, and musical harmony, the author shows how the simple
shape of the Starcut diagram unifies the many threads of sacred
geometry into one beautiful mathematical tapestry.
