The True Key to Philosophical Mathematics is the 47th Proposition of Pythagoras, erroneously credited to Euclid. The 47th Euclid Theorem states: In a Right Angled Triangle the Square described on the Hypotenuse is equal to the Sum of the Squares described on the other two sides.
Plutarch writes: "Now Universal Nature, in its utmost and most perfect extent, may be considered as made up of three things: of Intelligence, Of Matter & that which is the result of both of these, what the Greeks called Kosmos, which signifies Beauty & Order of the World Itself."
Now in this Triangle which is Rectangular, the Perpendicular Side is imagined to equal 3, the base 4 and the Hypotenuse is equal to the other two containing sides 5. The Perpendicular is designed to represent the Masculine, the Base Feminine and the Hypotenuse is the Offspring.
The First will Represent Osiris or the Prime Mover, the Second Isis or the Receptive Power and the last, Horus or the Common Effect of the other Two. For THREE is the 1st Number composed of Both Even & Odd Numbers and FOUR is a Square whose side is equal to the Even Number Two.
Now PHIve (FIVE) is the Product of TWO & THREE, and may be said to have an Equal Relation to Both of them, as to it's common Parents.
