Numbers
Zero
Zero is a powerful number
which brings great transformational change, sometimes occurring in a profound
manner. It has much intensity, so caution is needed wherever it appears to
ensure that extremes are not encountered. Zero represents the Cosmic Egg, the primordial Androgyne - the Plenum. Zero as an empty circle depicts both the nothingness of death and yet the totality of life contained within the circle. As an ellipse the two sides represent ascent and descent, evolution and involution.
Before the One (meaning the Source--not the number) there is only Void, or non-being; thought; the ultimate mystery, the incomprehensible Absolute. Begins with meanings such as, Non-existence; nothingness; the unmanifest; the unlimited; the eternal. The absence of all quality or quantity.

Duality. Alteration; diversity; conflict;
dependence. Two is a static condition. It is rooted, seen as balance (two
sides); stability; reflection. Two are the opposite poles. Represents the dual
nature of the human being. It is desire, since all that is manifest in duality
is in pairs of opposites. As One represents a point, two represents a length.
The Binary is the first number to recede from Unity, it also symbolizes sin
which deviates from the first good and denotes the transitory and the
corruptible.Two represents two-fold strength--that is symbolized by two of
anything, usually in history, by animals in pairs.

Three (3)
The third dimension - we do
things in threes so they will manifest in our physical realm. It's roots stem from the meaning of multiplicity. Creative power; growth. Three is a moving forward of energy, overcoming duality, expression, manifestation and synthesis. Three is the first number to which the meaning "all" was given. It is The Triad, being the number of the whole as it contains the beginning, a middle and an end.
The power of three is universal and is the tripartide nature of the world as heaven, earth, and waters. It is human as body, soul and spirit. Notice the distinction that soul and spirit are not the same. They are not. Three is birth, life, death. It is the beginning, middle and end. Three is a complete cycle unto itself. It is past, present, future.
The symbol of three is the triangle. Three interwoven circles or triangles can represent the indissoluble unity of the three persons of the trinity. Others symbols using three are: trident, fleur-de-lis, trefoil, trisula, thunderbolt, and trigrams.

A powerful confirmation occurred as we walked back along the trail, unexpectedly encountering a huge grandmother tortoise seemingly waiting beside the trail to greet us. That's when I knew I was to share about the 'Power of Three' for those who may feel inspired to consciously work with this powerful element of sacred geometry.
'Power of Three' has to do with Alchemy. The Egyptian god Thoth or the Greek Hermes Trismegistus (Thrice Blessed or Thrice Great) are the progenitors of the Emerald Tablets describing the mysteries of Alchemy. The alchemy of three is demonstrated by its power of multiplicity. For example, in understanding the numbers - One gave rise to Two (1+1=2) and Two gave Rise to Three (2+1=3) and Three gave rise to all numbers (3+1=4, 3+2=5, 3+3=6, 3+4=7, 3+5=8 3+6=9). Thus in addition to being a number of good fortune, Three is also the number of multiplicity and alchemy among other things.
Many believe the Triquetrais an ancient symbol of the female trinity, because it is composed of three interlaced yonic Vesica Pisces (a.k.a. PiscisSLatin for "Vessel of the Fish") and is the most basic and important construction in Sacred Geometry, which is the architecture of the universe.
A Vesica is formed when the circumference of two identical circles each pass through the center of the other in effect creating a portal. 'The Triquetra' represents the 'Power of Three' or the threefold nature of existence i.e. body, mind and spirit; life, death and rebirth; past, present and future; beginning, middle and end; Sun, Moon and Earth; and the threefold co-creative process described as thought, word, and deed.

The creation process as
described in the Vedas is unfolding, maintaining, and concluding as in birth,
life and death. There are innumerable trinities and triads throughout myth and
religious traditions, such as the triple goddess; maiden, mother, crone. One
example in Greek mythology is Kore, Demeter, Hecate. The Christian trinity is
Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Vedic trinities include Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva
with their consorts Saraswati, Lakshmi and Kali to name just a few. Vesica Pisces - Oval opening of the penis
I have often referred to triple planetary and celestial alignments as a Triune Council. This month we have several Triune Councils including the important Venus retrograde in Scorpio that will join up with Mercury and the Moon. Scorpio is the archetypal sign of the powerful Sorceress Witch (the crone aspect also linked with Kali, Hecate, Pele, the Cretan Snake Goddess, Cerridwen and all the goddesses linked with death and rebirth).
Her job is to align with divine will for the purpose of commanding life force energy so powerfully that she is fully the mistress of magic and manifestation generating ecstatic life experiences through the Shamanic Process of death and rebirth. It is worth noting all the Triune Councils that occur regularly 'Above and Below' as they energize the 'Power of Three.'
When we are seeking direct experience of these energies we can then work with them more consciously. If you feel inspired by and connected to the 'Power of Three' it may be worthwhile to experiment with gathering in groups of three with a common intent and then invoke the Power of Three and notice what happens. This just may be one simple key to planetary transformation utilizing the Power of Three to catalyze the alchemy of our world into the fully embodied, living experience of Heaven on Earth.

Five (5)
Five is the symbol of human
microcosm. The number of the human being. Human forms---the pentagon when arms
and legs are out stretched. The pentagon is endless ---sharing the symbolism of
perfection and power of the circle. Five is a circular number as it produces
itself in its last digit when raised to its own power. The pentacle, like the
circle symbolizes whole, the quincunx being the number of its center and the
meeting point of heaven, earth, and the four cardinal points plus the center
point. Five is also representative of the Godhead - Central Creator of the four fours plus itself equalling five. Five is the marriage of the hieros gamos as combination of feminine and the masculine. Feminine being even, as 2, in frequency and masculine being odd as 3 in frequency = 5.
The number five symbolizes meditation; religion; versatility. It represents the five senses (taste, touch, smell, sight, hearing) everywhere except in the East. In the East there are six---the extra being Mind. We find meanings to five in the five petaled flower, five pointed leaves--especially the ROSE. The Rose has much symbolism, but also the lily, vine, all of which represent the microcosm.
The five pointed star depicts individuality and spiritual aspiration, and education when it points upward. The five pointed star pointing downward represents witchcraft, and it is used in black magic. Noted: There is a very broad difference between witchcraft and black magic.
The number five formed the first counting process from which all else came.

We can see here the influence of this belief in other religious contexts. There are seven zones of earth; heavens, symbolized by the planes of ziggurat.
There are seven branches to the Tree of Life each having seven leaves. Leaves are symbols of fertility, renewal and growth.

Seven is a mystic number traditionally associated with Venus and more recently with Neptune. It is the number of feelings and of instincts - of the Group Mind, of Love, whether that strange, indescribable but pervasive feeling of love is towards another person, a pet, oneself or one's God. 'Love' embodies tremendous sexual energy, the emotions of which may be directed in various ways.
Heptagon
Heptagon is the inward
directing of that emotion, the containment, the 'love inside', that is
symbolized by the heptagon. It is the love we 'hold' and can equally signify a
deep religious conviction, a forming of our God in our own image or an
infatuation with another. It is feeling contained. 
Heptagram
The 7-pointed star or
heptagram is a mystical occult symbol. Like the pentagram, it has been called
the Witch's Star, also the Astrologer's Star. Beyond six points, the polygrams
all have multiple configurations and the heptagram may be drawn in two
different ways - an obtuse form and an acute angled form; both forms are
unicursal, here shown together with the third 7-point figure, the heptagon. In cabalistic terms, the number '7' is attributed to Venus. It relates to Man's mundane feelings and his instincts - to his sexuality . It relates to Man's place in the pattern of Nature and to his linking with the Group Mind - the undifferentiated Soul of Mankind.
Man's pattern of mundane life is much ruled by the seven day cycle of the week. The seven classical 'planets' : Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturlend their names to the days of the week and may be arranged around the figure of the heptagram.
The heptagram also relates to the seven chakras of the body. These are the energy nodes that rise up the course of the spine from the basal node, where is coiled the Kundalini serpent, to the point at the top of the head. The mundane well-being of the body and its aura are linked to the chakras. The heptagram is symbolic of this balanced, flowing of bodily energies and of health. It is a symbol relating to healing and dynamic balance of the body physic.
There are two forms of heptagram:
The obtuse form suggests passivity, contentment and attuning with nature and its forces; of healthy rhythms and normal sexuality; of balanced feelings and satisfied desires; of normal receptivity and awareness of the feelings of others.
The acute, active form suggests an outgoing interaction with nature's forces, making progressive use of them and directing sexual energy. It suggests strong feelings and strongly expressed desires; likewise perhaps, heightened sensitivity to the emotions of others. It is a symbol of the empath and the healer.
Combining the three seven - pointed figures together, creates a beautiful mandala of meditation.
Eight (8)
Spiritually eight is the
goal of the initiate, having gone through the seven stages. Eight is Infinity -
Paradise regained. Eight is solidarity as the first cube and it denotes perfection by virtue of it's six surfaces. There are eight winds and intermediate directions of space. Eight represents the pairs of opposites. The octagon is the beginning of the transformation of the square into a circle and vice versa.

In some myths the eighth day created the new "man" of grace. After seven days of fasting and penance the eighth day becomes plenty and renewal. 7+1 is the number of the octave which is a continual theme in all esoteric belief systems. The knowledge of frequency and sound are a vital key in the ancient "mystery schools".

Ten (10)
10 = 1 = Rebirth - that
which stirs and awakens your soul at this time. Ten is the number of the cosmos---the paradigm of creation. The decad contains all numbers and therefore all things and possibilities. It is the radix or turning point of all counting.
Ten is all-inclusive representing law; order and dominion. The tetraktys 1+2+3+4= 10 symbolizes divinity and one represents a point; two, length; three, a plane or surface (as a triangle); four, solidity or space.
It is seen as the perfect--the return to unity. When based on the digits of the two hands, it is completeness and the foundation of all counting. Its highest ranges of completeness, 100 and 1000, are the basis of all Hindu cosmology, and in China the Ten Thousand Things, ie: the uncountable, symbolize the whole of manifestation.
Ten is also the number of completion of journeys and returns to origins: Odysseus wandered for nine years and returned on the tenth. Troy was besieged for nine years and fell on the tenth. Ten is the sum of the number nine of the circumference with the one of the center---being perfection. We see ten also being symbolized in rituals like the ritual of the Maypole - the one of the axis with the circle danced around.

Much of its knowledge is gleaned from life experiences which enables a sense of calm to prevail in even the most turbulent of situations. Twelve is significant in ancient man№s life because there were twelve tribes in Israel, twelve disciples followed Jesus, there are twelve astrological signs in the zodiac, there are twelve months in the year, and our modern clock is divided into two groups of twelve hours. It is considered to be the ancient number of completion as it signals the end of childhood and the beginning stages of adulthood. Additionally, the ancient numbering and measuring systems are based on this number, as evidenced by terms such as a dozen (12), a gross (12 times 12), a shilling (12 pence) and a foot (12 inches). Negatively, twelve can suffer from a form of depression brought about by a feeling of resignation that life№s events have transpired in such a way.

Does anybody believe that Friday the 13th is necessarily a bad luck day anymore? Get over it. Superstitions make great copy and distill fear, the key element in our reality upon which most storylines are based. They control those who would allow themselves to be controlled, or more to the point, are programmed to that end and need to awaken and move beyond conditioning. In the 21st (3) century, for most adults ... it's just another day in the life.
The number 13 is probably the most common of all superstitions, considered a bad luck day unless you were born on Friday the thirteenth in which case it is allegedly your lucky day.
Reality is myth, math and metaphor created by the patterns of Sacred Geometry that repeat in cycles called Time (Clock) and Space (Space). 12 Around 1 or 13

22
In numerology 22 is often
called the Master Builder or Spiritual Master in Form. This 'master number'
includes all the attributes of the number 2, twice over, and also those of the
4. People who are 22s are said to find themselves feeling as if they live in
two worlds, one which is overwhelmed by the mundane, and the other by the
fantastic. In the divinatory Tarot, there are 22 major arcana cards. These
cards are numbered 0-21, so it is a matter of interpretation whether The Fool
or The World is card number 22. The latter card is almost always associated
with hard workers, a red-gold color, and a rose-gold gemstone. Interestingly, the
digital root of the 22 is the 4, which is the number of hard work. Twenty-two is a higher octave of four. It contains the secrets to many esoteric questions, as evidenced by the fact that there are twenty two letters in the Hebrew alphabet, twenty two pathways in many versions of the Kabbalah, and twenty two cards in the Major Arcana. Twenty two carries with it psychic gifts such as heightened sensitivity, intuition and psychic awareness, but is also predisposed to pitfalls such as treachery from hidden enemies and over sensitivity.
22 represents practical idealism - practical genius, creator of the future, power on all levels, master of the material, philanthropy, universality, international direction, and service to mankind.
In religion:
- There are 22 letters in the Hebrew alphabet
- There are 22 chapters of the Revelation of John Bible
- In the Kabbalah, there are 22 paths between the Sephiroth
· Twenty-two is a composite number, its proper
divisors being 1, 2 and 11. 22 is the sixth discrete bi-prime and the fourth in
the (2.q) family. With 21 it forms the second discrete bi-prime pair. 22 has an
aliquot sum of 14 and is the fifth composite number found in the 7-aliquot
tree. It has a 7- member aliquot sequence 22,14,10,8,7,1,0 of which the next
two members are themselves discrete biprimes, 22 is the first discrete biprime
exhibiting this property. 169 also has 14 as its aliquot sum. 22 is itself the
aliquot sum of two numbers 20,38.
· When cutting a circle with just six line
segments, the maximum number of pieces that can be so created is 22, thus 22 is

Consciousness - universal nurturing, social consciousness raised to a world
class, global responsibility, master teacher and healer. 33 is a higher octave
of 6, the flower of life, Creation. The 33rd degree is the highest publicly known degree in Freemasonry. The number 33 signifies 'Illumination' and freedom from religious dogma (superstition). The human backbone contains 33 vertebra with the cranium (intellect) on top.
33 is also 32 around 1. If you look at the roof of the United Nations General Assembly you will see a large light circular light surrounded by 32 smaller lights. If you look at the United Nations' own symbol you will see a circle divided up into 32 sections with the center being the 33rd. On the United Nations symbol you will notice 13 leaves on the olive branch. The symbol for the Soviet Union has this feature as well as 32 rays emanating from the sun with the sun being the 33rd.
In Math 33 is the largest positive integer that can not be expressed as a sum of different triangular numbers. It is also the smallest odd repdigit that's not prime (unless we consider 1-digit integers to also be repdigits). 33 is the eighth distinct biprime comprising the prime factors (3.11). Its aliquot sum (n)is 15; itself a distinct biprime (3.5) in the following Aliquot sequence 33,15,9,4,3,1,0. (Note 33 is the 8th composite number to descend into the prime number 3, the others outside of this sequence being 30,26,16,12). The sum of the first four factorials is 33. Adding up the sums of divisors for the 1 through 6 yields 33. 33 is the smallest integer such that it and the next two integers all have the same number of divisors.

44 is a higher octave
of 8
In mathematics Forty-four is a tribonacci number, a
happy number and an octahedral
number.44 is the 5th square prime with the prime structure (2^2.11). It is
the 4th square prime in the family (2^2.q). 40 is the aliquot sum of 44 and so
44 is the first Square-Prime in deficit (-4). All subsequent square primes from
44 have aliquot sums in deficit. The aliquot sequence of 44 comprises 5 members
(44,40,50,43,1) and interestingly exhibits a peak at the square prime 50. 44 is
the 3rd composite member of the 43-aliquot prime tree, the next member being 50

Harmonics and Letters
Eighty-eight
is used as code among white supremacists to identify each other. H is the 8th
letter of the alphabet, so 88 is taken to stand for HH which in turn means Heil
Hitler. This has caused controversy in the past, when trend spotters for the
Target Corporation noticed the symbol and began its use on hats and T-shirts,
unaware of its meaning." 14 is used similarly, more likely by non-Nazi
white nationalists, but it is oftentimes found in combination with 88 (1488,
14/88, etc.). This form of the number has inspired the naming of the groups
Column 88, Unit 88 and White Legion 88. Used for "goodbye" in Chinese
SMS: 8 is pronounced "ba", hence 88 is "baba", resembling
the pronunciation of "bye-bye." Eighty-eight is a symmetrical or palindromic number, a primitive semiperfect number, a refactorable number and an untouchable number. It is also a 16-gonal number. A palindromic number is a 'symmetrical' number like 16461, that remains the same when its digits are reversed. The term palindromic is derived from palindrome.

555 is a sphenic number. In base 10, it is a repdigit, and because it is divisible by the sum of its digits, it is a Harshad number. It is also a Harshad number in binary, base 11, base 13 and hexadecimal.
666 = 18 = 9 (closure)
666 is an abundant number.
It is the sum of the first 36 natural numbers (i.e. 1 + 2 + 3... + 34 + 35 + 36
= 666), and thus a triangular number. Since 36 is both square and triangular,
666 is the sixth number of the form n2(n2 + 1) / 2 (triangular squares) and the
eighth number of the form n(n + 1)(n2 + n + 2) / 8 (doubly triangular numbers.)
666 is the sum of the squares of
the first seven prime numbers (i.e. 22 + 32 + 52 + 72 + 112 + 132 + 172 = 666).
The harmonic mean of the decimal digits of 666 is an integer: 3/(1/6 + 1/6 +
1/6) = 6, making 666 the 54th number with this property. In base 10, 666 is a
palindromic number, a repdigit and a Smith number. A prime reciprocal magic
square based on 1/149 in base 10 has a magic total of 666.
The Roman numeral representation of
the number 666 (DCLXVI) uses once each the Roman numeral symbols with values
under 1,000, occurring in descending order of their respective values (D = 500,
C = 100, L = 50, X = 10, V = 5, I = 1).
666 is a member of the Indices of

In other fields
- 666 is referred to as the Number of the Beast in the Book of the Revelation (see Revelation 13:17-18).
- In the Eastern Orthodox Church, 666 is considered to be symbolic. Because 666 in Greek numerals stands for the Christ for man because the man was created the sixth day of Genesis and the serpent, represented what came between them.
- In War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy, the main hero (Pierre Bezukhov) uses numerology to show that Napoleon Bonaparte is the Antichrist. Bezukhov then finds the same to be true for his own name when the French version of his nationality is added. [1] Mistakes in both calculations are often noted in the reviews. Since the "sine of the Devil" sin (666°) = -1/2 times the golden ratio, this expression has been paraphrased by the humorous quip "The sign of the devil is the opposite of good, but only half as strong." Note that (sin 306°) and (sin -54°) are mathematically synonymous with (sin 666°). Vicarius Filii Dei, an epithet for the Pope which means literally "vicar of the son of God", adds up to 666 if only the letters with Roman numeral values are included.
