Abstract

Abstract In Kepler's book The Harmony of the Universe, edited in 1619, the theory of music as a science of that time is presented. Also the investigation of the correspondence between musical proportion and orbital parameters of the planets is presented. Kepler's book The Harmony of the Universe is a work that discloses the basic physical regularities of the developing Universe, which so far had not been definitively formulated. To explain the development process, Kepler introduced the concept of a “productive force” or “forming force” that directs the development of natural phenomena with the principles of world harmony, described by him. In addition to the four known natural interactions is a fifth one, that had never been studied fully. In this way we can explain the development of natural phenomena as alive and nonalive. Arising from the “productive force” that directs the flow of processes with the laws of harmony is an explanation of the existence of “anti-entropy” processes, a contradiction to the second law of thermodynamics, but playing a fundamental part in nature. The “golden section” apparatus defines space and time frames of process flow. The contents of the book give a notion about the way or “program” of development. Which basic law of nature is hiden in the contents of book is yet to be resolved (Kepler, 1939).
