Nature is so incredibly powerful and majestic, to the point of overwhelming the senses. Aside from unpredictable storms with indelible cloud formations, nature exhibits a more predictable universal code, which is visible everywhere once you know what to look for. I'm referring to the ubiquitous Fibonacci sequence, the mathematical constant that routinely manifests itself on a grand scale in tornadoes, hurricanes and spiral galaxies, and all the way down to the microscopic level found in our DNA helixes. It can be viewed more easily in sunflowers, pinecone formations, the reproductive habits of rabbits, the nautilus shell, and even the shape of our fists right down to our fingerprints.
