Amazing Planet Mandala: the Dance of Shiva

OK, let's have some fun. In Sirius (sorry, this is not available in Kepler), select either the Forecast icon, or in the menu at the top either "Forecast" or "Art Gallery". Now select the menu item for Planet Mandalas. In the Planet Mandala window select "Helio, 2 Planets, Actual Position". This selection displays patterns created by the positions as viewed heliocentrically. Now click the scroll down arrow for the list of planet mandalas of this type and scroll towards the bottom and select one of the three "Earth-Mercury: Shiva Dance" items. As you can see there is a 30 second, 1 minute, and 2 minutes version. The actual time for the presentation varies depending on the speed of the computer. First you will see the image being analyzed for its size and other characteristics with black lines. When this finishes, the show begins! After about 5 or 10 seconds you will begin to see a swirling image created by the relationship of the Earth and Mercury to each other. To me it looks a bit like an ancient goddess-like image of perhaps a Mayan or Hindu quality. Amazing! Physicists have taken an interest in the fascinating patterns created by orbiting planets.
