Before I begin writing about the Kardashev scale, I feel I need to discuss the Fibonacci sequence. After coming upon Carl Calleman's, work I began wondering where the Tzolki'n (the sacred 260 count of the Maya,) had come from. Why the numbers 13 and 20? Something about Calleman's book Solving the Greatest Mystery of Our Time: The Mayan Calendar, got me playing with number sequences.
13 is part of the Fibonacci sequence.
13 is part of the Fibonacci sequence.
Fibonacci | 0, 01, 01, 02, 03, 05, 08, 13, 21, 34... |
Cumulative Fibonacci | 0, 01, 02, 04, 07, 12, 20, 33, 54, 88... |

I was excited to make this discovery! Wow, something from nature that the Tzolki'n might be based upon! I wasn't the only one to make this connection. I discovered an article at One Reed Publishing by Valerie Vaughan discussing this very thing.
The next cycle I began looking for was 360, (18 and 20.) Though it still came from the Fibonacci sequence, it took a while for me to see it. 5+13=18.

Some of what I gathered from Dr. Argüelles was that the 13 numbers represented tones emanating from the earth's core, the planetary center. The 20 glyphs were solar. The sun is the solar system's center. So what about 8 and 5?
The next is speculative on my part. I began thinking of 8 as the sun's center and 20 as the sun's corona. So I had a planetary center, (13) and a solar center (8.) Following this logic, I decided that 5 represented the galactic center.
05 – galactic center.
08 – solar center.
13 – planetary center.
Cumulatively we have 12 at 5, 20 at 8 and 33 at 13. 33 remains a mystery to me but 12... The 12 Apostles. The 12 signs and houses of the western zodiac. And the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac. This was another one that took a long time to see. The Chinese zodiac not only has 12 signs, but each sign has 5 elements, (metal, water, wood, fire and earth.)
5 x 12 = 60. Perhaps the mechanize timing frequency, 12:60, that is integral to Dr. Argüelles and Dreamspell followers has its basis in the Fibonacci sequence. It's just a thought.
From nature. It all seems to be from nature.
