The planets move in exquisite orbital patterns. A Little Book of Coincidence by John Martineau illustrates these patterns and their geometrical relationships. If one were to take the orbits of two planets and draw a line between their positions every few days interesting patterns evolve because the inner planet orbits faster than the outer planet. The positions of Earth and Venus over 8 years produce a five-petal flower with the sun at the centre (below).
