The Pi Flag on 3/14

The 'Pi' flag combines the international maritime flags of 3, 1 and 4 to represent the estimated vale of 'Pi' at 3.14.  The French looking part represents the number three, the red disc on white represents one, and finally the white cross on the red disc represents four.

The great coincidence is that these maritime numbers nicely fit into each other.  Additionally the flags of France, Japan, and Denmark are accidentally apparent when you united them to make up the symbolic flag for 3.14!

A neat unintended coincidence is that the Pi flag happens to have a circle in it, and looks like is it is a four piece of pizza pie!

A Western Flag for the Chinese Zodiac: The Year of the Horse

Happy year of the horse?  It's just around the corner, and if you miss it, it'll be here again in 12 years.  Anyways just as East Asia created symbols for the West here are westernized symbols for the Eastern Zodiac.  The symbol for the Year of the Horse is stylized letter 'P' or is it a 'J' or backwards 'F?'  In any case it represents a horse's head running into the wind.

A Western Flag for the Chinese Zodiac: The Year of the Snake

Two major zodiacs are known to the people of Earth.  The Western World follows a 12 Zodiac Totem that is tied to a lunar tempo calibrated to the solar cycle.  However in the East, a similar yet very different 12 paced Zodiac congruently follows a solar tempo yet is calibrated to a lunar cycle.  This is a great lucky stroke of balance between the East and the West.


The East typically adapts its culture to the West and has 'invented' symbols to represent the Western Zodiac.  In balance to this cultural equation it is high time for the West to reflect back the honor for the Eastern Zodiac.  Thus this represents Earth's Year of the Snake.

The colour green represents the earthy elemental of the snake.  The symbol is a stylized representation of a cobra.  It should intuitively indicate a serpent of sorts.  Currently we are in the Year of the Snake.

Flag from Le Voyage dans La Lune: A Trip to the Moon 1902

In the first of first science fiction classics Le Voyage dans La Lune 1902, A Trip to the Moon.  A flag is present at the launching of a space vessel to the moon.  The flag is a vertical tri-bar of pink, yellow, and pink.

This film would stir the imaginations of generations born in the 1800s.  Little did they know that many who saw this film would live to see science fact follow in the wake of science fiction.  A year after the films official release the wright brothers would build a flying machine. And 67 years later mankind did indeed send a ship with men to the moon.

Earth Flag from Le Voyages dans la Lune 1902

This film was produced and directed under the creative genius of George Melies who accomplished a spectacular work with the limited means of his times.







In the closing sequence which predates 75 years plus, the Star Wars classic celebratory scene.  In the upper left hand corner we can see a varied collection of flags.

Flag of the Terran Empire: Star Trek Enterpirse 2005

In the American-Visual Arts Epic Poem of Star Trek a unique flag appears in the 700th official canonized broadcast - the flag of the Terran Empire.

The idea of the Terran Empire originates from the original Star Trek Series and this story plot revives it self in Star Trek: Enterprise, whose story line occurs before the original 1960s series, but was made long after the original series. 

The flag of the Terran Empire has a red background and features the earth coloured black and white, with the continents being black and the ocean white.  A straight sword pierces the earth from the north to south.  

 During a communique with earth a real fabricated Terran Empire flag can be seen over the left shoulder of the speaker. 

The Red Flag in Carl Jung's Red Book - "Liber Novus"

In the first illustration of Carl Jung's personal, mystical and poetic confession The Red Book: Liber Novus a ship with a red flag appears near a harbor.  Liber Novus is a hand written book by one of the leading and pioneering scientists to explore the human mind from a modern point of view.

The coincidence of a ship with a red flag in the first image of the The Red Book is a classic example of what Dr. Jung would call "Synchronicity."  But if you rewind the timeline 200 years earlier to the 1600s they would call this phenomena "Providence."  Perhaps in another 200s years in the 2200s another mind will repackage this idea with slightly different details?


Mr. Jung was of that gifted generation to grow up in the 1800s live through two world wars and witness the dawn of Earth's space age. He lived in a time of transition from horse and buggy to the age of space ships and when texting was simply dots and dashes. Unfortunately this generation has all passed and now we are born surrounded by technologies that direct our civilizations.

You can also see what seems to be the flag of France in a small border illustration near the top. The illustration is of a war scene. 

This is the first page in Dr. Carl Jung's very personal narrative.  It was published in 2009 forty eight years after his death in 1961.
