Hermetic Monument to Pythagoras AS ABOVE, SO BELOW

The Rosicrucian Garden in San Jose, California is a wonderful space tucked behind the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum. Surrounded by pomegranite trees and art of symbolic significance, the garden dedicates one area to Pythagoras. There stands a statue of the philosopher pointing to the heavens and below to earth, the material world. The sculpture itself sits in the center of a six-pointed star and directly between two columns, offering more layers of symbolism.
