Now this is an interesting Art development based on a recently discovered
text which allegedly reveals hidden numbers and letters within the mysterious, enigmatic eyes of da Vinci's
Mona Lisa!
The figures are microscopic, but found there may be the number
72 which in Astrology represents a
quintile aspect having the numerical value of
5, the Number of Man. Double it for
144 degrees of
artistic talent, a bi-quintile.
In his book
The Astrology of Relationship, Michael R. Meyer gives the quintile division this Keynote:
The capacity for creative manipulation of energies and substances for the actual manifestation of visions and plans.Symbolic Implications: The five senses, the five limbs (two arms, two legs, and the head), the four fingers and the thumb. Naturally, we think of da Vinci's famous drawing of the
Vitruvian Man! Perhaps the newly found 'secret figures' are not quite up to 'Da Vinci Code' movie script standards but may turn out to be interesting nonetheless.
Well, the brilliant
Leonardo da Vinci, the original Renaissance Man, was a quintile kind of artist with various interests which included the many
illuminations of his day.
Read more on such topics
here. (And yes, this gnat of an artist was born with a 5th house Mercury-Mars conjunction in Capricorn
bi-quintile natal Saturn.)
So we may wish to consider the Earth-Water
Sun Taurus-Moon Pisces personality blend of Leonardo da Vinci, born April 15, 1452 in Vinci, Italy (near Florence):
Sun Tau-Moon Pis mixes the Architect of Taurus with the Mystic of Pisces; Taurus is ruled by artful Venus while Pisces is ruled by abundant Jupiter and co-ruled by Neptune, planet of higher inspirations. This blend's vibe includes nature mysticism, creativity, poetry, and a deep love of beauty. It describes one who is easy-going yet determined and has compassionate concern for the needs of others; this is a
practical dreamer combo of a man who at heart is very private and yet warmly responds to others.
The
mind-body-emotion connection is effortlessly understood by this blend, and sparing time to brood may be a regular indulgence (great for an artist!); a deep connection is felt to Mother Earth, so perhaps Leo had a secret grotto he'd steal way to for pondering purposes!
This combo well describes one who learns best by doing for it's a 'hands-on' blend of energies with a flair for giving
symbolic expression to human feelings bwo Art. Hmmm...symbolic expression hidden in his paintings?
And in the Harveys' book
Sun Sign-Moon Sign, we find mention of Leonardo in the
Images for Integration for
Sun Tau-Moon Pis:
"Through the power of the imagination a man is healed...A poet prepares his accounts in verse...
The Mona Lisa."
