Taking Measure: Explorations in Number, Architecture, and Consciousness

Unlock the Hidden Numerical Codes of Our Reality

In Taking Measure, author Scott Onstott takes you on a mind-bending journey through the invisible structures that shape our world. Distilled from the groundbreaking research in his viral film series Secrets In Plain Sight, this book reveals how architecture, astronomy, and ancient units of measure are hyper-dimensionally interconnected.

A Science of the Soul

Geometry is more than just math—it is a universal language. Onstott demonstrates how the decimal system literally underlies the structure of physical reality, from the 81 stable atoms in the universe to the 8,640-mile hexagonal wave at the north pole of Saturn. By "taking measure" of the objective world, we begin to uncover the profound subjective truths within.

Inside this exploration, you will discover:

• The Ennead & the Atom: How ancient Egyptian mythology mirrors the periodic table of elements.
• Metrology & Earth Harmonics: Why the English foot, the mile, and the meter are not arbitrary, but are precisely tuned to the size of the Earth and the speed of light.
• The Binary Secret: Compelling evidence that our Sun is part of a binary system with Sirius, explaining the Great Year and the Precession of the Equinoxes.
• The Sacred Marriage of 6 and 5: The hidden relationship between the honeycomb (structure) and the apple (life), and how this ratio is encoded in the Great Pyramid and the human brain.
• Astrotheology: The astronomical origins of religious stories and the wisdom preserved by the Dogon tribe.

Bridge the Gap Between the Real and the Ideal

From the streets of San Francisco and London to the heights of the Washington Monument and the Giza Plateau, Taking Measure proves that "All is Number." This book is an essential guide for anyone seeking to understand the harmonic patterns unfolding in space and time.
