for the pythagorean tradition, the soul and body of a man are subject to the same laws that govern musical phenomena, and those same proportions are to be found in the cosmic harmony in such a way, that both micro and macrocosm (the world in which we live and the entire universe) appear bound by a single rule that is at once mathematical and aesthetic.
the rule which is manifested in the music of the spheres moving - the musical scale produced bu the planets, each of which, in rotating in a motionless world, produces a sound whose pitch depends on the distance of the planet from the earth and, consequently, on the speed at which the planet in question is moving.
the system thus emits the sweetest music, but one that we cannot hear, owing that to the inadequacy of our senses.
