In 2016 the 432,000" measure of the Vesica Piscis (and its indwelling radius) announced itself as a key of Sri Aurobindo's mission of recovering the Sanatana Dharma (Eternal Law) and Divine Maya of the Ancient Vedic Seers. This eternal form proceeded to unveil the geometric basis and sense of Vishnu's avatars, the geometric basis and sense of the Vedic Rivers (=Mothers=Cows=Sisters), and myriad other long misunderstood symbols of the Rig Veda. The story of this unveiling is told at length in Geometric Keys of Wisdom (book, 2018).
The "announcement" of the eternal measure and law of the Vesica Piscis was preceded by Patrizia Norelli-Bachelet's teachings on the zodiacal and spherical context of the 432,000 measure of the Kali Yuga from 1973 onwards. She understood the 432,000 measure of the Kali Yuga as 432,000" (=120° x 60' x 60" = one-third of) the 360°, 25,920-year Great Year of the Precession of the Equinoxes, equivalent to four astrological ages or 8,640 years (4 x 2,160 years).
Below is a collection of articles from Geometric Keys of Wisdom (blog) which present some of Patrizia's discussions on the sacred measure of 432,000, along with articles written by Lori Tompkins after Patrizia's 2016 passing which explore the sacred geometry and measure of 432,000 in relation to the measure of the Rig Veda and its sacred syllable, the geodetic measure of the Earth, Vishnu's Kalki Avatar, ancient symbols and myths, the Speed of Light, etc.

“[It] is necessary to understand that the figures of the Yugas (Ages) are not in actual fact years, but refer rather to seconds of degrees of celestial longitude.…432,000 would be four zodiac signs converted into seconds of degrees.... The Sun’s radius is the key of Truth in that it unites the outer circle of the disk (the Multiple) with the inner central core (the One). We could call this: ‘The Measure of Unity.’ It is precisely the Sun’s symbol, the point within the circle, that contains the Knowledge… " ‒ Thea
Part 1 (2019) starts with an excerpt from Chapter One of Geometric Keys of Vedic Wisdom (Book, 2016).
[T]he measure of the Earth’s circumference in Greek feet is based not only based upon the 360° measure of the year, but also on the 25,920-year measure of the Great Year (Precessional Cycle). The Time measure of 25,920 years was transposed onto the 25,920-mile measure of the Earth’s circumference.
25,920 miles = 25,920 miles x 5000 feet = 129,600,000 feet = 360 x 360,000 feet
"In the case of the so-called modern foot and mile, it is the Time measure of 365.24 days (the Solar Year) that is transposed onto the measure of the Earth’s circumference.
24,902 miles = 24,920 miles x 5280 feet ≈ 131,486,400 feet = 365.24 x 360,000 feet" (2019)
"[The] 432,000-syllable measure given to the Vedas can only be truly understood in terms of the measure or law of the radius and vesica piscis within the 360 degrees of the circle/year, which is encoded into the language and symbols of the Vedic Rishis in myriad ways. In other words, outside the context of the 360° Vedic Year...the 432,000 measure of the Vedas (or of the Yugas) has no meaning. Once we accept this 360° and sexagesimal context of the sacred measure of 432,000, it is easy to see that this sacred measure is firmly linked to the eternal triadic basis, law, order and truth (ritam) of the Vedic sacrifice, and triadic gnosis (trayi vidya) of the Vedic Seers." (2019)
"[T]he Vedic Rishis frequently characterized this sacred and eternal geometric form in terms of a sacred sound, including the sound of a divine or holy syllable, word, voice, and song (hymn). This is certainly not the only way the Rishis characterized or symbolically portrayed the vesica piscis within the circle of the Zodiac, but in this Part Four of "The Sacred Measure of 432,000" series I want to focus in on the geometric and zodiacal sense of the Vedic syllable and word which was occult (hidden) and lost in previous ages, and thus was widely misunderstood and distorted throughout the various religions which arose and flourished in the Age of Pisces." (2019)
"[T]he myth of Vishnu’s return and his re-establishment and preservation of the laws of the Vedic sacrifice (i.e. of the Solar Year) in 432,000 years, not only portrays the misunderstanding and mis-measure of the Sacrifice that Vishnu has to correct from time to time (yuge yuge), it also contains the precise sacred measure whose true meaning Vishnu is responsible for recovering from the grasp of mass Ignorance." (2019)
"[Patrizia Norelli-Bachelet] referred to the sacred number 432,000 as the "Measure of Unity". In a footnote to one of these discussions, she wrote: "It has been pointed out that 432^2 = 186,624, or approximately the speed of light."
"[T]he measure of the Yugas has been misunderstood for quite some time ... perhaps for thousands of years. Ms. Norelli-Bachelet teaches that the figure for the yuga (432,000) was never meant to be understood in terms of years, but in terms of seconds of degrees of arc in the 360 degree circle. 432,000 seconds of degrees of arc equals ONE THIRD of the 360 degree circle." (2011)
"According to Ms. Norelli-Bachelet, the Kali Yuga functions as a Unit of Measure, like the integer ONE is a unit in the circle of Nine. If the Kali Yuga is understood as a unit, and not an Age itself, then the Dwapara (2) + Treta (3) + Satya (4) Yugas = 9 Yugas = 3 Precessional Cycles (i.e. 77,760 Years or 36 Astrological Ages). When we remind ourselves of the numbers for Kali Yuga/Radius of the Sun 432,000 ... and remember the function and potency of the circle/cycle of the 9/0 number system of Vedic origin, this understanding of the Yugas makes much sense." (2011)
"What Patrizia is suggesting is that the figure of the Kali Yuga 432,000 (also the radius of the Sun) is the measurement that needs to be first understood in arcseconds. From that re-adjustment in seeing, everything else becomes clear. Then the Kali Yuga is seen as 120 degrees of the circle - one third or 120 degrees of the Precession of the Equinoxes (or 4 Astrological Ages).
With this adjustment, the Kali Yuga needs to be seen as a Unit... like the number ONE is a unit in the circle of NINE numbers. (2010)
