For instance, we have seen the golden section or proportion used with regularity in crop circle design. The golden proportion divides a line so that the lesser is to the greater as the greater is to the whole. It is found everywhere in nature and throughout ancient architecture. What is so interesting about the golden proportion is that it is not just some irrational or arbitrary number, it is fundamentally a relationship, and more than that, it is a harmonious relationship. One length being to the other as the other is to the whole, not equality as we normally experience it, but a harmonious relationship between two lengths.
Equality is in fact only one form of harmony.
When we begin to understand the role of relationships and harmonies and their effect on the human being, it is not much of a leap of imagination to see that shapes, sizes, proportions and harmonies of the crop circles can have much the same effect on us as music. I think the human being has a unique ability to be empathetic to relationships and harmonies. The emotional response that we can have to music is a direct illustration of our ability to recognise harmonious relationships and to respond to them emotionally. It is, in fact, a sort of intelligence of harmony , it is the thing within us that creates our need for beauty, mystery and spirit in our lives. Harmony, as we have already discovered, can be a beautiful, mystical and spiritual experience, just like the crop circles.
