In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger one equals the ratio of the larger one to the smaller. The golden ratio is an irrational mathematical constant, approximately 1.6180339887.

Other names frequently used for the golden ratio are the golden section (Latin: sectio aurea) and golden mean. Other terms encountered include extreme and mean ratio, medial section, divine proportion, divine section (Latin: sectio divina), golden proportion, golden cut, golden number, and mean of Phidias.

The golden ratio is often denoted by the Greek letter phi, usually lower case (φ).

The golden ratio can clearly be seen in nature. From the sea-shell to the flower to the growth of a tree, from the draining of water down a plug-hole to the shape of galaxies, they all follow "God's fingerprint".

Lucifer is a Latin word, literally meaning "light-bearer", that was used as a name for the "day star" or "morning star" that precedes the rising of the sun. In English it is used in Christian convention as a name for the Devil.
