Triangle

Trinity, aspiration, the stable form.

ChristianPythagoreanJungian

The triangle is the simplest stable form. Christian tradition gives us the Trinity; Pythagorean geometry made the triangle the beginning of the knowable forms. Jungian analysis reads triangle-dreams contextually: an upward-pointing triangle often marks aspiration or the masculine; downward, the chalice or the feminine. Notice whether the triangle is solid, outlined, or made of people.
