Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.

Sacred Geometry
Foundations of Sacred Geometry Sacred geometry refers to the study of recurring geometric forms, numerical ratios, and proportional relationships that manifest throughout the natural world and across human civilizations. These patterns appear in biological growth, mineral formation, astronomical movement, and the built environment, suggesting that geometry functions as a fundamental organizing principle rather than a human invention. Long before geometry became a formal branch of mathematics, early societies recognized that shape and proportion governed stability, harmony, and continuity in both nature and human life. Observation, measurement, and symbolic interpretation developed side by side, forming systems of knowledge that linked mathematics with cosmology and meaning.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
