Yi Cheng Hero Hexagon 100 Ivory Fountain Pen
Among the Classical problems of geometry the oldest one is with no doubt squaring the circle; it has certainly been an issue since the most ancient times. It can be enunciated as follows; Given a circle, determine the side of a square having the same area as this said circle. Even though its enunciation is simple, this problem cannot be solved by geometry in an elementary way but only with the help of a ruler and a compass. Two of the most frequent and universally shapes in the language of symbols are the squares and the circle. These are the basic elements of the hermetic and alchemic ideology. The circle is the sign of the unity of the principle and of the sky and as such indicates its activity and cyclic movements. The circular movement is perfect, immutable with no beginning and no end, no variation; as such it can be represent the time which in turn, can be defined as a continuous succession of instants each one identical to the other. The square is the symbol of the earth as opposed to the sky, but it is also, on another level, the symbol of the created universe; each and sky, as opposed to the non created and to the creator; it is the antithesis of the transcendent. The square is an anti-dynamic figure, anchored on its four sides. In connection there is always an analogy and correspondence between the beginning and the end of any cycle, but at the end the circle is represented by the square, and this indicates the realization of what the hermetists designed symbolically. It is the Squaring of the Circle. Which expresses the two creating and conservative laws of the Universe : Movement and Stability. This Squaring the Circle Ivory pen boast its particular shape in its design. It is not round as other pen and it is not square, which makes it interesting. It is simply unique as all things which longs for perfection are.
