1.618

PHI - The Divine Proportion.

A fundamental building block in nature.


Do you know that
all living things possess dimensional properties
that adhered with eerie exactitude
to the ratio of PHI to 1?


In a honeybee community,
the division of number of female bees by male bees
will get you PHI.


Measure the distance
from the tip of your head to the floor,
divide by the distance from your belly button to the floor.
You get PHI.


Measure the distance
from your shoulder to your fingertips,
divide by the distance from your elbow to your fingertips.
You get PHI.


I am amazed & completely fascinated.

There is so much more that I want to know.
