Just for the sake of illustration, in order to show the "universal relationship" between the numbers 6, 7 and 8 (the six basic colors of the color wheel in accord with white, the seven notes of the music scale, and hence "one octave"), if you take six coins of equal diameter, say six pennys, and laid them on the table in the form a hexagram, where each penny touched the edge of the next penny, you could then place a seventh penny in the center and all pennys will still touch ... a pattern by the way (i.e., honeycomb effect), that retains its form and can be repeated unto infinity, merely by adding more pennys to "the outside." Hence illustrating the universality between a hexagram and the numbers 6 and 7.
Before anyone else makes a post about the musical scale, will you please follow this link? Also, let it be known that I was not the one who brought up the musical scale, as it was not part of the original post. However, if you take the time to read the post above, regarding the numbers 6, 7 and 8 and "one octave," you'll see how easily the idea of seven notes and one octave portrays a "universal pattern."
the diatonic scale is used far more. any time you see an orchestra practicing you'll hear the diatonic scale, anytime you here kids singing do-re-mi... you're hearing the diatonic scale.
Have you read the first part of the post which refers to the colors in my avatar?
So what is the point in referring to the muscial scale in terms of "octaves?" (meaning eight). I guess this is kind of what threw me, and why I've always understood there were seven notes, including the eighth, which makes it "one octave."
your music history seems off. guido invented do-re-mi... to correlate with the first tone in each of 6 songs tributed to saint john, each tone corresponds the the major scale. do-re-mi can be sung in any key, yet it was invented for use in the diatonic scale. and yes sharps were not added later into music, i was merely commenting on how we still use guido system slightly modified to include all semi-tones.
another uneducated responce. the guitar is simply the only instrument i can think of that still uses diatonic tuning, steel guitarists(jerry byrd) can vouch for this. i never said that every guitarist uses diatonic tuning, your responce is pure ignorance.
there IS a seven note scale and although it’s not used today it still did exist, and may I add that it wasn’t even close to have been developed within 20 years. This was the beginning of a long, pointless argument, but you were still wrong.
I never said the guitar itself was diatonic… I said the tuning was. We were speaking of the use of the diatonic scale and the only use in recent history I could think of was the steel guitar.
Well because I took art throughout school and was introduced to the color wheel, and I understood there were the six basic colors, with all the gradations in between. I also understood that the infrared spectrum occurred before the ultra-violet spectrum, and that the visible spectrum (white light?) existed in between. Therefore I naturally concluded that the visible light spectrum should begin with red and end with violet. Also, if you were to look at the picture below (follow the link), and imagined the six outer colors as lights shining in the center, then the center would indeed be white ... I also needed to come up with a universal relationship between the numbers 6 and 7 (in accord with the seven spirits of God at the https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=429"), and this seemed to do the trick.
In school they teach you there are three "primary" colors (red, yellow, blue) and three "secondary" colors (orange, green, violet). Now these are "pigmented colors," as opposed to "colors of light," which I suppose can make a difference? Nonetheless this is how I derived the six basic colors. From there it was an educated guess (per what I said in the previous post) as to what color I should assign to number 1.
As I said the six "basic colors" had already been determined (had no idea about turquoise) ... Also, are you familiar with the Jewish Menorah? ... i.e., the older version with seven branches? I was trying to develop a relationship between this and the Star of David (i.e., hexagram), and figure out how to incorporate the number seven (seven branches of the Menorah) into both schemes. Anyway the number "4" is in the center of the Menorah and yet, there are only six colors which can be assigned to Star of David, therefore the only way to add a seventh aspect would be to its center (as in the Menorah). And, since the six colors has already been determined, it only made sense that the center be white, and hence the central color scheme itself -- "white light." This also makes sense in that the stand of the Menorah is the center as well as the "4th aspect." If you follow the link below you might get a better idea.
The numbers help to illustrate the symmetry between the Menorah and the Star of David, and that indeed the "4th aspect" belongs in the center (of each).
After determining the number values for yellow (3) and violet (7), I realized that it corresponded to this meditation phenomenon that I relate at the https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=429", as illustrated by my avatar to the left. Beyond that, I don't know that there's much else to say ... except that it helps illustrate the "spherical" relationship between the symbols, colors, numbers and the meditation technique.

Life was meant for living man ... not overanalyzed to every single last detail. So what gives? I thought you said you were going to stop spamming my posts?
If it makes you happy to believe all of this then go ahead. But don't bother to ask for my reply.
I did answer your previous post by the way, in case you're interested. I don't know what it is about LocalAtheist's appeal? ... but I realize some of us are more easily influenced by spam than others. I'll make it easier on you though and repost it below, so it won't be necessary to flip back to the previous page. Now how's that for service! ... And I'll even throw in a couple of smiles at no charge!
