I discovered this while doodling deliriously late at night. I was trying to come up with a system that used shapes instead of numbers. Let's go through the steps together.
What would a no sided polygon be? A dot is the closest thing that we can come to.
Now what shape has only one side? A circle, of course.
Next comes two sides. This would necessarily be two points with lines between them in a curve. This could be a football shape, or a crescent moon. We will go with the football shape, as it is symmetrical.
Next, a three sided polygon - a triangle, of course.
If you don't see where I'm going with this yet, hang on. What if we draw these together one at a time?
the point:
within a circle,
bordered by two lines (although turned from their usual position)
placed in a triangle,
thus creating the eye of God through Geometry.
