How to make a pentagram
This page describes how to make a pentagram. This was a closely guarded secret for ages, in the past it happened that a member of the pythagorian school was kicked out because he didnt keep it a secret. Now i reveal it to you on the internet :-).
Step 1. Start out with a support line. and make a vesica piscis. A vesica piscis is, two circles with eachothers midpoint on the other circle's edge.
Step 2. You can now draw another circle.
Step 3. Dont change the size of your pair of compasses and add another one. Make a new line to find the middle of this new vesica piscis.
Step 4. Now you have to change the size of your pair of compasses as shown by the red line and make this new circle (you only have to draw that part).
Step 5. Do this another time with the newfound point.
Step 6. Do not change the size of your pair of compasses and repeat.
Step 5. Fill in the lines of the pentagram
Step 5. Final drawing. Note that the pentagram is 'born' out of the vesica piscis, which is considered to be the mother of everything.
