The Universe Shell of Life Reflections
This particular spiral is not just idle curiosity or merely an interesting pattern – it is actually a map of the harmonic sequence. This is how music works – in fact, it is how everything works.
It is a visual representation of musical intervals and their relationships within the context of a harmonic or tuning system. At the core of the chart is the fundamental note (C), with frequencies doubling for each octave. Each interval is also associated with a specific mathematical ratio, first calculated by Pythagoras.
He discovered that two notes forming an octave always have a ratio of 2 to 1. The perfect fifth has a ratio of 3 to 2, and the perfect fourth has a ratio of 4 to 3. Pythagoras combined these intervals and then created additional notes to form a larger scale. Through his mathematical calculations, music theory was born. 
All frequencies—whether sound, light, planetary motion, etc.—can be related to this cycle. The same spiral pattern appears everywhere in nature: DNA, plants, galaxies, our weather patterns… and also in music. The spiral is repetition, but with the accumulation of experience, it embodies the fundamental process of creation and growth.
