One, Three, Five : Seven and Nine – Blog No. 47

The Golden Ratio

22.12.2015

You don’t have to be good at mathematics to be a numerologist.  Nor do you have to be an actuarial scientist.  You only need a passion for numbers.  Numbers are magical.  Where did their shapes even come from in the first place?  And why did Roman Numerals change into the kind of numbers with which we are now familiar?  I imagine a different message probably needed sending as times modernised and it became more effective to use numbers, than numerals.  Or – the world as it was known to be came to an end and when the new futures were spliced together to recreate the sheer wonder of what had been before there was a slight miscalculation that led to an unexpected over-convergence.  When you have that kind of unexpected overlap in time the strangest things can happen.  Like food falling from the sky and turning into fishes, for instance.

The odd numbers are my favourite numbers.  Even numbers are fine when they come in pairs, otherwise they are best left to their own devices.  Odd numbers have more zeitgeist, for example, than even numbers do.  They embrace their sharp edges, their inconventional un-matchedness.  Through natural selection, an odd number cannot be superstitious or obsessive-compulsive.  They can, however, be incredibly particular when it comes to their presentation and their representation.  You cannot get an odd number wrong.  There is a reason that it is odd to begin with.  Whether it is or isn’t a good reason is not the question.  The question is whether or not the even numbers can count.

The Fibonacci Sequence is the mapping of an actual pattern, a wavelength clearly in motion, since for numbers there is no infinity.  Neither is there an end in sight for a nautilus or a golden spiral.  The ratio of one number to another – in that sequence – is perfect.  And yes, perfect does exist.  It has to in some dimensions.  Like this one in which we currently find ourselves.  For instance, if a parachute is not packed perfectly on earth, it will not open the right way for you when you need it to break your fall.  It is best to understand that, if you will delegate to another the packing of your parachute.

Chronology – Blog No. 12

chronology

It is necessary to get things in their correct order.  That is not hierarchy, it is a process through which we reach the right outcome.  You cannot know what is next if you do not know what came before.  If you do not bother to find out what came before you can rest assured that your outcome will not be what you think it is.  It is not wise to decide that 1969 comes after 1972, for instance, because in this world, it doesn’t.  1972 would not have been what it is if 1969 had not come first.

Priorities are best in chronological order.  That way, you can see where you are versus where you were and you can then plan where you want to be.  In retrospect – using hindsight – chronology also gives you an accurate breakdown of your progress along your journey.  You can see where you made mistakes and how you overcame them, and you can work out why doing certain things at certain times is pointless.  Chronology is like A, B, C, D, E.  Or 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.  It is knowing that if you will fly, you must first grow wings.  Growing wings in 2015 is advisable if you will fly in 2017, for example.  Wings do not grow overnight.

A timeline is another kind of chronology, and it is somewhat like a map.  If you can read numbers, orders, you can read your future past and thereby arrive at your present destination with all your ducks in a row.  I have heard it said that ducks in a row are too easy to shoot, but that is perhaps a pessimist’s view.  Ducks in a row can slipstream.  That means unless you are using a bazooka you are unlikely to hit all the ducks with one shot.  Work out your timeline and trust its message.  We all have our own times and places to be – your timeline is not mine, mine is mine.  Yours is yours.  Timelines are exciting when you establish – and follow – their lead.  In essence they know more about you than you do.

The Luck of the Draw – Blog No. 37

luckofthedraw

The luckiest is the one whose gun works.  Whether it is sunrise or dawn, or somewhere therebetween, a working gun will always be handier than a sword – or a gun that backfires, for instance.  You cannot be sure at the moment of firing whether the gun will work, or whether it won’t.  That is half the reason for using a gun in the first place – an accurate shot has at least a 50% chance of hitting its target.  Those are particularly good odds, given the windage, etc.  An inaccurate shot can also hit bull’s eye.  It depends on the bend of the trajectory.

If you choose your numbers with intent, your outcome will be one thing.  Lucky for some, not for others.  In that way luck of the draw means selecting the correct numbers that come up.  How you do that is up to you.  If you should choose rather with presence of mind, your end result will be better than predicted.  Remember that better is where to be, before you get to best.  When you can improve upon what was projected, predicted, without undue concern for the outed repressions that attempt to get in the way of said betterment, then it becomes clear that life – as it should be – is on track.

Should you be choosing a card from a deck, I would suggest deciding to be lucky before you take your pick.  That way, you can feel your way into the divide that will guide you either forwards or backwards to the card that needs reading.  Then luck of the draw is in the number that presents itself to you.  You need to realise that the energy expended in the direction of selection is returned twice-fold when the selection is correct.  That is how.  The why?  Why not.

A good day for a Zulu wedding – Blog No. 31

culture

Culture is important to those that have one.  A culture develops through the centuries and is dependent on its people living, its ancestors.  We all have ancestors.  Some are just better remembered than others.  There is little that is interesting about those people lacking a fundamental history about which they can feel personally proud, no matter what that history entailed.  We have all experienced exploitation and violence in our times.  We have all had to swallow our pride at one time or another.  Should your culture be dull and empty of resonance, that can be considered a problem of sorts.  There are ways to remedy this deficiency, but they are few and far between.

A good way to begin the remedying of a dying culture is to give it a place in your future.  Find out what you are, who is in you.  The coding of your DNA can give you this information.  Once you know the scope of your coding then you need to contemplate how much of your person has evolved through nurture – and what percentage of you is a given from Nature.  These kinds of names and numbers are important if you wish to survive a cultural extinction.

There is an absolute strength and a deep humility in an established culture.  It is the balance of these factors – amidst others – that determines the success and reach of a culture’s influence.  A beautiful people generally have a beautiful culture.  If you can recognise beautiful people you will intuitively understand that.  Those with beautiful cultures live with the knowledge that the connection they have with their past is what will carry them into the future.  We can all learn from those people.

Numbers – Blog No. 7

numbers

Numbers have their uses, as do people. Not all numbers, mind you. There are those that are best left to add themselves up and cancel themselves out of the equation. There is power in numbers. Some. It depends upon which numbers come before others, which numbers remain invisible. There are always those numbers which will remain invisible and that is for a reason. Superstition, for example, is one reason. Greed is another. Greed is particularly effective at hiding its truths.

When there is serious work that needs doing – as is generally the case in an everyday on planet earth – the most practical way to get that work done is to use numbers. There is capacity in numbers – the higher the number, the greater its capacity. Many hands make light work. We have all heard that at one time or another and some of us took heed when we did. That recall will not go to waste. No cliché ever does.

You are either a numbers person or you are not. That is for you to establish very early on in your life career. You can become a numbers person when you know some simple mental arithmetic, i.e. one plus one equals three. Until you can make that add up, you will find that the more tenacious aspects of life will proceed to challenge your understanding of who and what you are. Like the Bermuda Triangle challenges the rational in mankind. Everything has its time and its place to be – or not to be – whether or not it is tangible, visible to the naked eye. Just because you believe that you cannot see something, it doesn’t mean it isn’t there. It is. You just have to know how to open your eyes. Unfortunately mental arithmetic cannot help you with sightlessness.
