4. We next draw tangential arcs from the top and bottom points as centers, creating a vesica, which is also expressed when two circles each touch another at the center, like this (at 90 degrees):

*this vesica has slightly different proportions

This is Unity becoming Duality. The relationship created between these two circles can yield all regular polygons and in particular the geometric solution for squaring the circle, which is the most elegant geometric analogy of the infinite becoming manifest.

A variant of this symbol is in the zodiac, namely Pisces:

*There is an extensive correlation between Pisces, the vesica, and Christ, which is beyond the scope of this exposition, but quite worthy of pursuit.
