What are the four states of matter?
Solid,liquid,gas and plasma........this coincides with the four elements of the ancients....namely earth,water,air and fire.
Solid is earth,liquid is water,gas is air and plasma is fire.
In chemistry the four most common chemicals in living organisms are CHON.....carbon,hydrogen,oxygen and nitrogen.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHON
Carbon equates to earth,hydrogen equates to water,oxygen equates to air and nitrogen to fire......the four elements.
In physics the four fundamental forces are....strong nuclear force=fire,weak nuclear force=air (these are the two "male" elements)...electromagnetism is water and gravity is earth (the two female forces).
This is Jehovah...the tetragrammaton....the four letters....the "god" of matter.
There is a fifth element though....which equates to the Christ.....that which brings life to (animates/awakens) matter....
The lotus flower is important in Eastern thought....why?
Again it is to do with the four elements....the flower starts off in the earth,grows through the water,out into the air and looks toward the sun...the fire....again the four elements.
The four living creatures are also linked to the four elements....Taurus (bull) is an earth sign,Leo (lion) is a fire sign,Scorpio (eagle) is a water sign and Aquarius (man) is an air sign....the four elements.
In a deck of cards....clubs are fire,spades are air,hearts are water and diamonds are earth.....
You will see this thought in all "four corners".....of the earth.
