power of 8

THE POWER OF 8

Leave a reply

(Originally published in 2008)

8 is the number of POWER. It teaches us that power, in any form, cannot be maintained without BALANCE, and that balance cannot hold without accurate understanding. 8 is associated with money, business, competition, and the incorporation of anything that is useful to it. It is widely believed that those are the principle means of gaining personal power in the world, and the belief that ‘money is power’ sprang from this rather shortsighted point of view.

Yes, 8 is the number of power on the material plane, but in the context of true balance and accurate understanding, it is more precise to say that knowledge is power. But when knowledge is manipulated in order to gain power, true balance and understanding are lost. The real purpose of 8 is not to exploit the material plane (Mother Nature), but to keep the material plane alive!

8 is the symbol of infinity. The constant flow of energy. Perpetual motion. The continuance of life. Our lack of understanding has thrown life on Earth, and the planet itself, so far out of balance that the continuance of life as we know it is seriously threatened.

We are experiencing the rebalancing of power in all worldly matters, including the money-driven corruption in politics, science, business and media. While greed fights on for what it believes is its right to take everything, we can expect a rough ride for some time to come. But what so few seem to notice, or remember, is that there is nothing as unstoppable and immeasurable as the power of Mother Nature. She IS the material plane! We ignore her at our peril.

Without an understanding of the vital role that balance plays in holding the world ‘together’, the 8 influence translates as greed and ignorance. By its nature, greed ignores any reality that does not feed its hunger for “more”! Greed must also convince others to deny reality so that it’s power-seeking mission can continue unobstructed. Greed must control, manipulate the truth, and capitalize on anything that suits its purpose, even if it stands to destroy other aspects of life.

Power-hungry people distort the truth by making it appear that they have more power than they actually have, using the natural emotion of fear as a weapon with which to overpower. Underdeveloped 8 energy is the energy of bullies who deny their enormous insecurity by projecting their fears onto others. Genuinely powerful people rarely have to assert themselves in an intimidating way. We must remember that the consequence of power depends largely on whose hands it is in.

Denial of reality has been the main cause of the great imbalance we are now waking up to on Earth, environmentally, economically, politically, and in almost every other way. However, (combined with the 2 energy of the 2000s which signifies balance through connection, cooperation and diplomacy) the 8 energy can help us to end our own denials which will, hopefully, produce an evolutionary movement away from the edge of self-destruction, onto safer ground.

The imbalance is perpetuated by those who stand to lose what they’ve got should the playing fields of life be more even, and by those who are still mistaking their denials for reality. They even deny the existence of evolution. Of course, there is imbalance on the other side of the creation/evolution argument, too. Those who believe that everything stems from evolution are denying the fact that everything on Earth, even an atmosphere, is created – and it evolves. A more balanced look at this shows us that life is an evolving creation.

“We lie the loudest when we lie to ourselves.” ~ Eric Hoffer

It is important to understand what denial is because it exists in all of us whether we deny it or not. Denial’s mission is to capture truth and prevent it from reaching consciousness. Although truth can remain hidden for what seems like an eternity, truth cannot be totally destroyed. The mission of denied truth is to seek conscious acceptance. Its magnetism draws attention to situations which, when enough dots are connected, sheds light on the denial until we ‘sense’ that there must be more to a situation than meets the eye. Truth then reaches consciousness in a roundabout way – through ‘gut’ feelings. Now, truth is breaking out all over the place, only to be denied again and again by those whose purpose is served by keeping the truth locked away, and by those who are too afraid to face and feel what the truth may reveal.

The 8 energy has the firm INTENT to be fully aware. It thrives on truth, and much of that energy is making its way into the hearts and minds of individuals all over the world, with the understanding that everyone is evolving differently, in their own way, and at their own pace.

Wherever there is a “war” for the hearts and minds of people, you can be sure it is an attempt to control those hearts and minds with an agenda-driven concentration of misinformation. That tactic has not worked because the more you try to control people, the more tolerance they develop for their own feelings, and the more able they become to feel and sense the truth – even if those feelings take generations to finally express themselves.

“Reexamine all you have been told, Dismiss what insults your soul.” ~Walt Witman

The 2 energy is teaching us how much more can be achieved when empowered individuals join together for a common cause. In the 2000s, truth is finding its way into consciousness through 2’s intuitive and sensitive passageways. We are growing more adept at feeling and sensing the truth, rather than depending on others for information.

Denial does one thing only. It denies. It even denies that it is denial, and that it is denying. We can see this quite plainly in many people who hold powerful positions.

“When an old culture is dying, the new is created by a few people who are not afraid to be insecure.”  ~Rudolf Bahro

Denial has taken such a hold on Earth that we have had to bring ourselves to the edge of extinction in order to realize how ignorant and misinformed we have been about so many things. 8 is the most powerful energy we have when it comes to discovering the truth and taking appropriate action. The overall understanding of humanity is increasing now. A massive shift in consciousness is occurring, visibly and measurably, one individual at a time. This is personal – and if you’re not denying, you can certainly FEEL the winds of change howling through the world right now. But this time, change really does mean change – a completely new way of life that is almost impossible for people to imagine at this stage – a way of life that enables us to evolve out of denial, to face reality no matter how dreadful it happens to be, and find ways to reclaim our Free Will.

Power seeking people gain power by overpowering others. They have learned that this is easily done by controlling our emotions, especially the emotion of fear. That is why 8 is often called the number of the bully. When people are emotionally confused, they do not know what to think, and then look to others to inform them. By keeping people afraid, you can mold them like putty.

The 2 energy of the 2000s is helping us to gain awareness of our emotional power – our sensitivity to reality – so that we can decide everything for ourselves, including what is true and what is not. Many of us experience this as ‘gut feelings’ or instinct, but what we have to learn now is to combine that power with the power of our minds. This means that our minds must begin the often difficult process of accepting our feelings, no matter what form they take. Our feminine energy (emotion) is every bit as sacred as our masculine Spirit, but acceptance of this does appear to be where Spirit has encountered its own limits. This is changing now, slowly, but surely. If we don’t like the way a feeling feels, we must find out what caused it, and deal with that instead of denying the feeling.

Denial comes in many guises including a belief that we should focus only on the positive and ignore what is labeled ‘negative’, or anything that doesn’t feel ‘nice’. But, surely, to be truly positive is to be truly aware. Therefore, the focus needs to be on reality, not just those parts of reality which don’t threaten or disturb our so-called ‘peacefulness’. It is amazing how many people are in shock at what is happening in the world, as if it just started yesterday. We must be careful not to use positive thinking as a form of denial. Reality has always been plain to see, but we wouldn’t look at it. We need to start looking at things as they really are, and make a conscious effort to notice what we previously ignored.

“Our complex global economy is built upon millions of small, private acts of psychological surrender, the willingness of people to acquiesce in playing their assigned parts as cogs in the great social machine that encompasses all other machines. The capacity for self-enslavement must be broken.”  ~Theodore Roszak, The Voice Of The Earth

8 is the number of SATISFACTION – knowing when enough is enough. But when 8 is abused and misunderstood, greed takes control, and greed is the opposite of satisfaction. It can never get enough – even when it appears to have it all – because it is SO afraid of losing what it already has! It needs to control everything, including people’s personal lives, thoughts, feelings and needs! It tells us that we must do what it says or some terrible fate will befall us. It tells us we cannot expect privacy. It tells us that, in such a dangerous world, we have no rights at all. To have no rights is to be enslaved. In an atmosphere of greed, human rights violations are seen as something the ‘markets’ will sort out. But, the markets are the system. The system is greed.

“If you can find money to kill people, you can find money to help people.”  ~ Tony Benn

Denial is starting to bend under the weight of truth. and the lost power of the oppressed is very slowly rising through the genuine desire for real and meaningful change. 8 may well be the number of power on the material plane, but when our practices stand to destroy the material plane itself, the 8 energy produces reflections of ourselves and what we are doing, and we can see that we will destroy ourselves if we do not make the right changes. There are many out there who would rather die than face their own denials, and some of them do have the appearance of having more power than everyone else. That is an illusion, of course, because self-destruction is the absence of power.

8 offers correct understanding of the role BALANCE plays in holding physical life together. Our day to day lives have become increasingly dramatic, traumatic and emotional, for everyone, not just the most vulnerable. It is important to recognize just how widespread this reflection is, because it is showing us where we all are, where humanity is in our evolutionary journey. We are at the extremes of life.

The environmental condition of earth is a huge reflection of just how dumbed down we became, and how those we looked to for information have covered up the truth. They are still doing so. In terms of balance, how can any intelligent being suggest that now that the polar ice caps are melting, we should drill for oil in the two most important and sensitive balance points on the planet. The North and South Poles are Earth’s electro-magnetic connection. Greed wants to drill into them in its relentless and mindless search for more oil while, clearly, alternative sources of energy which do not threaten Earth can be developed. If the poles collapse, as their ice caps are currently doing, there is every likelihood that the very axis of Earth will collapse along with it. The poles are what enable a planet to be a planet and not just a collection of rocks and dust.

In her effort to survive, Mother Earth is begging us to stop what we’re doing to her, not because she will die, but because WE will. She is our first and foremost connection to the material realms of life. She is the physical manifestation of mother energy. She will survive because survival is the very nature of the feminine. We inherit our survival instinct from her. But the fact that the majority of people are still denying these survival warnings is a startling reflection of just how denied feminine energy has been in general. Survival is the most basic instinct we have. Yes, 8 is the number of power, and Mother Nature will continue to remind us, brutally if necessary, with what we still like to call ‘natural’ disasters, until we reach the necessary understanding, that SHE wields the greatest power of all on the material plane.

Strong feelings are bound to arise as the journey continues. Let them. Take full responsibility for them. There is never a need to hurt yourself or anyone else when expressing your feelings. As we continue to evolve emotionally, many of us will become much stronger for the experience. But many others will not understand what’s happening and we are likely to see people’s suppressed emotion’s exploding out of them in dangerous ways. A reflection of this comes in the form of the terrorist, disgruntled employee, rejected lover, or the crazed teenager, whose pain, anger, and hatred have been held down for so long that it has to burst out in any way it can in order to express itself. It is up to each of us to find ways to express our feelings safely, and preferably privately, until a deeper understanding of the emotional healing process is reached. There is a lot of information on the creativenumerology.com website, and in my book LIFE CYCLES Your Emotional Journey To Freedom and Happiness  which, in Part Three, discusses in more detail the emotional healing process and its undeniable connection to Free Will.

When 8 is exaggerated or manipulated, its natural desire for correct understanding and balance gets crushed by greed – the urge to attain and amass. Concentrated 8 energy often results in inaccurate assessments and wrong diagnoses, misunderstandings, underhandedness, falsifying the truth, the manipulation of rules, winning at any cost, ruthlessness, bullying and, of course, denial, denial, denial.

Another thing to remember is that panic is the denial of what fear has to teach. Panic is a dreadful experience in which you cannot see any way out of a situation. You believe that no alternative exists. It is the feeling of being trapped and simultaneously judged against. It is usually you doing the judging but there is no way to realize that while the feeling of fear is so concentrated and indescribably intense, and while your denial is pushing its message away. You feel like you’re going to die. And yet the moment you realize that a panic attack is what you’re having, it subsides – immediately. At that point, you need to realize that you are NOT stuck in fear. On the contrary, you just let fear pass through you and out of you – and you are so much stronger as a result. If you are able to relate to this material, you are at a stage of emotional, intellectual, and physical evolvement which will enable you to develop the antidote to paralyzing fear – genuine COURAGE.

We must help the process along by lifting ourselves out of our own denials, no matter how unfamiliar the concept feels, no matter how strange it sounds, and no matter how much emotion we have to let ourselves feel in the process. While it is true to say that denial of reality caused most of this imbalance, it is also true that emotion is the reality that was most heavily denied. For instance, people see some awful thing happening in the world and they ask, ‘where is the outrage? Doesn’t anybody care?’ But then, when people do get angry, they are told that anger is ‘bad’ and that we must ‘control’ this natural emotion. Consequently, nothing gets changed. How can there be outrage if rage is not allowed out?

There is nothing wrong with anger provided it is allowed to express itself. That is why loving intent is so necessary – but we must also be aware of when we are denying our true feelings in favor of the appearance of loving intent. We need a more accurate understanding of the positive power and purpose of emotion, as well as HOW to express emotion so that healing, not harm, occurs.

What makes it so hard for people to embrace their own feelings is that, in the course of a lifetime, or many lifetimes, denial has created an enormous buildup of emotional energy which must also be released from the body so that balance between our masculine and feminine can be achieved within the body. These feelings are OLD feelings. But, no matter how old and bitter they happen to be, they need acceptance in order to heal. This form of healing is going to be a massive task – impossible for some. Nonetheless, we all embarked upon that leg of the human journey in which emotional healing must take place when the numbers changed from 1999 to 2000. We must now learn how the energetic imbalance in individuals is directly connected to the planet. There are so many experiences that we have not yet had, individually and collectively, which will help us to gain deeper understanding and, perhaps, bring a sense of excitement and adventure back into our lives, and break those chains of rigid conformity that have placed such awful restrictions on our natural creativity.

“The quest for certainty blocks the search for meaning. Uncertainty is the very condition which impels people to unfold their powers.” ~ Eric Fromm

8 energy helps us to see through the illusions that we mistook for life, and to look at reality head-on. The more we see things as they really are, the more emotional our lives become, the more intelligence we gain, and the more determined we are to be honest with ourselves and each other about our problems, our blessings, and our potential to change the habits and patterns of generations.

We appear to be involved in a very slow process. But in the context of time/space, rather than the linear time we are accustomed to on Earth, these changes are occurring more rapidly than we realize. Linear time denotes the amount of time it takes for an effect to occur, step by step, once a cause has been triggered, as opposed to the ‘instant’ result we could achieve if we were not so densely clogged up with unexpressed emotion and therefore lacking in understanding of how to change things. The rapid pace of life being experienced now is an illusion. We are actually evolving in slow motion.

“One day it will have to be officially admitted, that what we have christened reality is an even greater illusion than the world of dreams.” ~Salvador Dali.

8 tells us to look at what we’ve got and appreciate it. To appreciate means to understand the value or magnitude of something. And what we’ve got is this monotonous cradle-to-the-grave-cookie-cutter existence which cannot possibly be what life is all about. We haven’t even begun to recognize our own powers as human beings, let alone tap into them. We have been asleep to our own personal power because we’ve been so tied up in this feelingless system in which we give our power to others for the sake of what we are told is our own security.

Compared with what we could be if we were more able to think and act for ourselves, we are only half present in our own lives. We use such a small part of our physical, emotional and mental capacity, that we have not learned to test our limits, striving occasionally to think ‘outside the box’, only to find more boxes on the other side. We have all kinds of powers and can sometimes imagine them in detail. But we fail to use them because we have been conditioned to believe that we cannot.

The 8 energy has a love of high quality. It tells us that we can – and must – evolve into higher versions of ourselves if we are to survive the changes, build a balanced new reality that is based on Love, and then thrive in it. It must also be remembered that 8 is just one number – one form of energy that really does need the unique powers, vibrations and qualities of all the other numbers. Only together do they add up to balance.

WEEK 43 – TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES

1 Reply

The numerology of calendar WEEK 43 is busy and diverse, and while the pace of life on Earth continues to accelerate, we are in a cycle that is trying to slow us down.

Week 43 is a 7 WEEK, (4+3=7), which is the number of learning. But unless we slow down to a pace that allows us to study the details of one situation before rushing into another, very little can be learned, and our minds become more prone to distraction and manipulation.

7 is the number of the mind, analysis, and the flow of information. 7 is also the number of secrets, scandal, conspiracy, and exposure. Both 4 and 7 are truth-seeking and error-correcting numbers, and Week 43 is the 4th week of a 10 week cycle in which all the Week Numbers begin with 4.

4 = limitation

3 = communication

7 = knowledge

Calendar Week 43 begins on Sunday, October 22, 2017 (1/22/1) which is a 6 Day – and represents justice, education, healing, family, home, and responsibility. 6 is the number of the dictator or tyrant – the number of control. The patriarchal system from which we are evolving, with all its extremism, austerity, and cruelty, is a product of under-developed 6. But this is also the number of the loving father, and the evolving man who promotes equality and fairness. While 6 can take us to extremes, it is also the number of BALANCE.

Master Number 22 focuses on a larger picture and sheds its enormous light on how ‘the few’ affect ‘the many’. This numeric mixture reminds us that humanity is one family, and Mother Earth is our home. 22 provides enormous potential to improve conditions for people (and all life forms). But in the wrong hands, it can result in incompetence, selfishness, and sheer spite. 22 is the most balanced form of 4, but when balance is lost, inflated egos become extremely dangerous, especially when supported by deflated egos.

On Thursday, October 26, your personal weekly forecast repeats as a daily forecast. This repetition occurs when the month and day add up to 9. (1+0+2+6=9). On these ‘double dose’ days, conditions, memories, and feelings intensify. 9 represents ‘letting go’ in order to move forward. Be sure to re-read your personal forecast on Thursday.

October 26, 2017, also has a 10/1 vibration (1/8/1) which focuses on the power of the individual, the abuse of power, and the need to maintain our free will amid such great efforts to stifle it. This is a day to be super-conscious of the rise of fascism in the world, and use this week’s 4 energy to develop your determination to keep yourself, and those you care for, free and safe from this very real threat. To ignore it is ignorance. And we live at a time in which ignoring or denying the truth can create dire consequences.

Friday, October 27 is the 300th day of this 10/1 Year. October is an 11/2 Month, and October 27, 2017 is an 11/2 Day (1/9/1). 11 illuminates what we most need to see. These two 11s are connected to the 22 energy we experienced at the beginning of the week, making this an entire week of connecting dots and producing a bigger picture and a deeper understanding. 2 is the number of connection. In this energy, suddenly we realize something important after a period of oblivion. Suddenly the penny drops – and we finally ‘get it’.

Feminine 2 is the number of the new millennium which is why feminine energy, all over the world, is now rising so visibly, vocally, and effectively. The timing is right. The male-driven 1000s are over, and 2 will bring balance to what has always been a ‘man’s world’. Feminine energy is humanity’s WILL, which has never been free, but is rising to free itself now by expressing – without guilt or shame – just how badly it has been treated in the course of time.

Allow your fear to work for you, not paralyze you. Allow its messages to transform themselves into courage and resolve. The opposite of love is not fear. The opposite of love is hate. The opposite of fear is confidence – and the belief that no matter what, you will find your way.

In this week’s busy numeric blend, nothing is quite as it seems. 3 provides a platform, and amplifies communication. This includes the way you communicate with yourself, so be careful not to react impulsively or believe everything you hear. 3 fuels all the arts, including illusion. Remember that denial, deception, distraction, and diversion are arts unto themselves.

3 also enables us to speak from the heart – which then touches the hearts of others. One of 3’s qualities is to spread and expand, sometimes as rumor, gossip, and hearsay, but also as truth, inspiration, excitement, and incentive.

3 is such an important vibration here in the early 21st century (2+1=3) because it provides the sustaining energy of optimism – which is another word for hope. Hope is a vital lifeline – something to hold on to as we move through this rough uncharted territory.

27 is a form of 9. It activates our intuition by merging emotion (2) and mind (7), which provides a more balanced appreciation of what is happening – in an atmosphere in which reality is being deliberately blurred. Yes, we are up against a lot as we struggle to hold onto our WILL and rescue parts of it that are already enslaved to this collapsing system.

Life is an ongoing story, and we must constantly determine whether we are dealing with fact or fiction, truth or lies – and this is not an easy task! However, despite this week’s contradictions and ‘strangeness’, we are likely to unearth NEW information that can make the task a little easier. And the way we react to what we learn is most important too. FREE WILL – the ability to express outwardly what we are feeling inwardly – is at stake here.

Controlling the Will Of The People starts with controlling women – and most specifically, women’s bodies – because it is the physical body, both female and male, that enables us to FEEL our emotions. That is why so much effort is being put into preventing free expression, and why the whole issue of free speech is so prominent at this time. 27/9 urges honest and open response to experience.

At the same time, the innovative 10/1 energy of 2017 shows us alternatives and solutions – and attention to detail is essential. But only a greater awareness – an expansion of consciousness – can accommodate all the different factors at play. This is something you have to want so strongly that you literally WILL it into being. You cannot force your mind to open. Only when it opens is there space for new understanding to come in. Open-mindedness has nothing to do with being gullible or easily led. Open-mindedness requires a deep desire to learn, to know, to understand. And of course, desire is a feeling.

2 is the number of PEACE through diplomacy, not force. On October 20th, Donald Trump, signed an executive order which expands his authority – and the Department of Defense headed by General Mattis, to declare a national state of emergency. This is an addendum to a George W. Bush Executive Order made after the 9/11 attacks which makes it easier to call up Reserves and retired military personnel, at short notice, for indefinite duty. At the time of writing, one can only speculate what this could mean, but it does not bode well.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13223 = 11

Signed 10/20/2017 = 10/20/10

On Saturday, October 28th, we are once again in 10 10 10 10 energy. To better understand this quadruple-10 vibration, please read my article for Week 41, entitled: “PAY ATTENTION”.

Decade = 10.

Year = 10.

Month = 10.

Day = 2+8 = 10.

10  10  10  10 = 40.

The very next day, on Sunday, October 29, (10/11/10=3+1=4), we enter the ‘master energy’ of WEEK 44.

WEEK 41 – PAY ATTENTION!

5 Replies

This week’s numerology urges us to PAY ATTENTION to what is going on, even though the pace of events is so hard to keep up with. Week 41 is a 5 week (4+1=5) which sparks our intellectual curiosity and a desire to be better informed. In the 4 1 5 vibration, we want to get things ‘right’. We want to understand.

Practical 4 seeks out and corrects inaccuracy. 4 represents challenge, strictness, restriction, and success through effort and determination. 1 represents the individual, the ego, one-step-at-a-time movement, and progressive change. 5 represents sudden change, unexpected development, the physical world, our physical bodies, “all walks of life”, variety, variation, and freedom.

Tuesday, October 10 brings us into 10  10  10  10 energy.

Decade = 10

Year = 10

Month = 10

Day = 10

10  10  10  10 = 40.

This corresponds with this 10 week cycle in which all the week numbers begin with 4, (Week 40 to 49).

The last time we experienced the quadruple-10 sequence was 9 years ago, on October 10th, 2008. On that date, the stock markets across Europe, Asia, and the USA crashed. The system was broken by greed and incompetence, and so began an unprecedented financial crisis that is still affecting economies today.

So here we are, moving through that volatile 10  10  10  10 energy again, but even more vulnerable this time around. Human rights, at so many levels, are being violated on a scale we have seldom seen before. Slavery never ended. It just changed its outer appearance – and its name. In this age of transparency, its diabolical image is reappearing, but now it’s called ‘trafficking’.

10 Downing Street is very much in the spotlight. The British Government’s Headquarters is often referred to as simply, “Number 10”. And this seat of global power is in uncommon disharmony at this time.

Environmental disasters are happening with greater frequency and impact, while our assault on Mother Earth worsens. There are more displaced people in the world now than after World War 2. Human and animal suffering never ends. Then there is the threat of nuclear engagement in which millions of lives are at stake – while the gigantic yet fragile egos of leaders Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un spar with each other. October 10 is a big day in North Korea – the 68th anniversary of the founding of its “ruling political party”.

The Iran Nuclear Agreement is also in danger of being abandoned. 1 signifies all things nuclear. In fact, it was in October 1962 that the Cuban Missile Crisis put the whole world on edge. This involved leaders John F. Kennedy (USA) and Nikita Khrushchev (USSR) and Fidel Castro (Cuba).

And then there is the upsurge of authoritarianism, (nazi-ism) that is trying its best to take control of all life on Earth. Hate and violence go hand in hand.

It is imperative that we PAY ATTENTION to what is happening as the effort to drag us backwards  intensifies, and the attempt to normalize authoritarianism accelerates. While we are all distracted by very real and emotionally rousing events that are coming at us so rapidly, laws are being passed which make authoritarianism LEGAL.

Someone tweeted just recently “I long for the day when people wearing swastikas and people wearing Black Lives Matter tee shirts accept each other and just ‘get along'”. It is shocking to see the number of people who do not understand what nazi-ism actually is – an irrational belief in racial superiority – the ‘master race’ – racism at its MOST extreme. There is no middle ground once we reach that level of authoritarianism. If you resist its ‘authority’, you die. Yes, resistance continues and becomes more resolved, but under the most extreme danger of exposure. Resistance has to be coordinated in secret. It becomes ‘the underground’.

When we are no longer permitted to question authority, our WILL, (the feminine energy that all human beings possess), is completely trapped and restrained, and our lives are no longer our own. The regime OWNS us. When we can no longer express dissent, we are enslaved! Expressing outwardly what we feel inwardly propels us forward in the journey of life. And this is precisely why women’s rights are always under attack. If feminine energy were to attain equality in this man’s world, the whole system would fall apart – which it is currently doing.

“We are not what happened to us, we are what we wish to become.” ~Carl Jung

At the same time, we have to focus on creating the kind of world we want to live in – to set our priorities – and arrange our lives around them. If we give up on this, we give away our Will. By focusing on building a new way of life that makes the old way obsolete, we give ourselves a goal which can carry us through the inevitable rough spots ahead.

Without 1 there can be no other numbers. 1 is the nucleus, the atom, the beginning, the first step.

1 = leadership – and being ‘in the lead’. 1 also refers to leading our own lives – and being ‘led’.

1 = the “RACE” for superiority – actually BEING #1.

1 = contest and competition.

1 = the self ~ the individual.

1 = the ego (one’s sense of self).

1 = unevolving masculine aggression and contest (war)

1 = the divine masculine – the evolving man – (equality)

1 = action and speed.

1 = 1-step-at-a-time development (1 thing leads to another – cause and effect).

1 = the power of 1 ~ and the power of many 1s who are united in a common cause.

And this week there are many 1s affecting our lives. (10 is 1 multiplied by 10).

One of the challenges of the 1 energy is to speak up for ourselves and let it be known how we feel, instead of allowing uncomfortable situations to escalate without ever speaking up to clear the air. This means developing courage and determination (which are characteristics of 4).

Remember that guilt and blame are not emotions. They are judgments which may, or may not, be accurate. Judgments we have made over time, as well as those we have inherited from previous generations, create a belief system that affect all the decisions we make today.

There is an emphasis on relationship and loyalty this week. This can help us to untangle ourselves from hurts and insecurities of the past, so that we can BE in, and deal with, what’s happening in the present. Begin with a judgment you have made about how certain people or situations should be. Then look more closely at how they actually are, and how they became that way. If we cannot find the cause, changing the effect will be impossible. And so, we are going back and forth between areas of the past from which we must free ourselves, the emergencies of the present, and the potential in the present from which to create the future. There’s a lot going on in the evolving human condition right now.

There is no shame in not knowing all the answers, and we should not pretend to understand something if we don’t, or try to be someone we are not. Week 41 emphasizes the qualities of honesty and sincerity. We give these feelings consciousness when we express them not only in the words we speak, but also in the actions we take.

Week 41 is a 5 Week, and 5 is the number of all things ‘different’ – diversity – variety – the ‘spice of life’. 5 is physical and sexual. The 5 vibration helps us to LEARN from past and present mistakes and mis-steps, so that we can stop repeating them on the great karmic wheel of unlearned lessons.

5 represents learning from experience. 5 brings contrast to the openness that life is becoming – which enables us to see things more clearly, and many things for the first time, even though they have been there all along. We are all in the evolutionary process of understanding the concept of FREE WILL, and the absolute necessity to rescue and protect it.

WEEK 40 – Logic and Reason

1 Reply

October is the 10th month of this 10/1 year: (2+0+1+7=10=1). Every week has its own unique numerology too, and on October 1st, we entered a 10-week cycle in which all the week numbers begin with 4 – the number of logic and reason. 4 teaches us what we most need to learn. Delays and restrictions occur when 4 is active, but this vibration also provides us with the determination, persistence, and common sense to hang in there – prevail – when the going gets tough.

From now until late-December, 4 brings obstruction – but it also enables progress and breakthrough. 4 focuses on the reality of what we’re dealing with, and areas of our lives in which we feel ‘stuck’. 4 exposes ruts and routines – habits and addictions – and shows us that “it doesn’t have to be this way”.

Tradition is questioned – and we must remember that by nature, tradition resists change. And so, paradoxically, 4 also brings out opposition to new ideas.

4 represents success through hard work, organization, and diligent attention to DETAIL. Its critical eye points out errors and holds us back until we correct them. This mechanical energy shows us procedure, framework, and how things work.

“We are all just prisoners here, of our own device…” ~The Eagles, Hotel California

4 is a serious vibration. Only the facts will do. Precision. Exactness. Science. Focus. Method. Rules. Regulations. Observation. Correctness. Efficiency. Organization. Just imagine what can be achieved if we utilize this energy consciously, for the purpose of freeing ourselves from this box we are all trapped in.

4 is symbolized by the square, the box, the cube, the container, the prison. 4 represents SYSTEM – and it is this industrial/militarized/class system that boxes us in and holds the box in place. 4 represents barriers, law, order, policing, justice, maintaining control – and at the most extreme levels, austerity and authoritarian oppression.

The strictness of 4 may not sound appealing, but what we are dealing with now requires our strict attention. No matter what our personal plans happen to be, planning ahead makes little sense if we don’t know the direction we are headed in. 4 is the number of purposeful delay – thus the saying: “there is a reason for everything”.

The mix of inexperience and impatience with detail make standstill inevitable. 4 exposes the details, so we can study the facts and base our decisions on what we learn from them.

We’ll be learning a lot about karmic 13/4 in the next ten weeks. 13 is not ‘unlucky’, but it does insist that we take responsibility for our mistakes and miscalculations – and correct them. There may be some inner-shock involved as new understandings dislodge old beliefs – followed by the fulfillment that comes with learning something new.

We will also be feeling the affects of master number 22/4 which enables us to think and act BIG in terms of helping people, not harming them. But if 22 is mishandled, it creates chaos on a very large scale. For every action, there is a consequence, and both 13/4 and 22/4 show us that the consequence of power depends very much upon whose hands it is in.

“When a situation is not made conscious, it occurs outside, as fate.” Carl Jung

1 brings change through activity, actualization, and activism. 1 is the number of action. 3 communicates outwardly what we feel inside. 3 = population, popularity, entertainment (and our addiction to it). It’s not a matter of suppressing art. On the contrary, when we come out of this wall of denial that we’re currently struggling through, consciousness will expand and our creative abilities will reach entirely new levels. 3 is the number of creativity, and the 21st century places us in a hundred year cycle of expansive, communicative, creative 3 energy (2+1=3).

The first day of October gave us four distinct bursts of 1:

Month =10=1.

Day =1.

Year = 2+0+1+7=1+0=1.

Decade =10=1.

( 1+1+1+1 = 4)

It was on the 274th day of the year that the USA suffered its 273rd mass shooting of 2017, at the “Route 91 Harvest Music Festival”  in Las Vegas. The 10 energy brings things to new levels – and the demand for gun regulation in the USA is increasing significantly. With such a powerful gun lobby, changing the rules will be extremely difficult, but with the resolve of both 4 and 10, (logic, reason, intelligence, innovation, and new potential), progress can be made if the WILL is strong enough. The Will is made up of our emotions – the feminine energy within us all.

As we learn more about our emotional power, remember that terror is also an emotion – the most heightened form of fear. And terror-ism is the deliberate infliction of terror on others – no matter where that person is from or what ideologies are in place. It takes more than the customary “thoughts and prayers” to achieve meaningful change when it comes to this horrific loss of precious life. Only a large scale voluntary change of heart and mind can do that. When logic and reason spread, mind and emotion can then agree with each other – and that is when truly meaningful change can be implemented.

“Racism is man’s gravest threat to man – the maximum of hatred for a minimum of reason.” Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel

On October 2, the much loved multi-talented rock star Tom Petty died. This sad event is also connected, in an inspiring way, to the upsurge of hate, racism, nazi-ism, and old programming – and the overcoming of these things. There was a time when Tom Petty used the confederate flag as part of his act (1985). He grew up in the south, where this flag was part of daily life for most (white) southerners. But as he became educated on its symbolism and its connection to slavery and the Ku Kulx Klan, he expressed his deep regret and completely denounced it. He said:

“people just need to think about how it looks to a black person. It’s just awful. It’s like how a swastika looks to a Jewish person.”

What a timely analogy. Along with his music and other talents, he left us with a visual, emotional, intellectual, and logical message of love. A vital aspect of our evolution is to recognize the ignorance we inherited from previous generations, which left us oblivious to the harm it does. Understanding the past is how we learn what works, and what doesn’t, and what’s real and what isn’t.

But much effort is being put into whitewashing history so that we cannot learn from the mistakes of our ancestors. Many text books, (especially children’s), routinely distort the facts. This Canadian book completely erases the plight of Native Americans, blotting out the Trail Of Tears and all the other atrocities, by stating that Native Americans merely “agreed to move to other areas” to accommodate the influx of white Europeans. This of course is just one example. The erasing of history (cover-up) is happening everywhere.

There is so much going on all over the world – all connected to history and our endless wars, and by the brutal (and illogical) nature of the system itself. 4 is the number of system, and in this age of transparency, we can see things more clearly now.

1 is the number of the individual. The number of change and progress. 10 brings us to new levels and new potentials. Mixed with this concentration of 4, blockages can be removed by pushing practical ideas into reality. This gives individuals a larger role in changing the overall direction.

On October 10, 19, and 28, we are moving through 10 10 10 10 energy. That’s 4 tenfold – requiring major effort – and hopefully resulting in major breakthrough.

2 = caring, cooperation, connection, patience, and UNITY.

2 = others.

22 = many others, and connects directly to the circumstances of large groups of people.

22 takes us beyond our limits and enables us to focus on our true intent. But if our intent is selfish, greedy, or inhumane, the results are chaotic and destructive.

In a world that demands instant gratification, it is difficult to accept that a quieter, humbler, slower, and more focused pace is needed. But that is what we must do if we are to notice the details and make the right decisions.

These waves of concentrated 10 energy remain with us through October and November – and the 11 year of 2018. As we evolve out of the 1 energy of the 1000s and move further into the 2000s (towards 2020, (which is when the decade of the 10s ends), we are forced to learn what 1 has to teach. Things cannot improve until we do. 

For the next 15 months, we are moving through alternating and often clashing bands of masculine-electrical-intellectual 10/1 energy – and feminine-magnetic-sensitive 11/2 energy. Circumstances are rigorously triggering our emotions, but our conditioned minds want to prevent our feelings from expressing themselves outwardly. When we hold our feelings in, (denial), they settle in specific areas of the body where they fester and make us ill. We all have ill-feelings which must be allowed to move and heal if we are to move forward in the journey of life. But in some cases, we will see these repressed emotions bursting out of people as rage – sometimes silent rage which can be even more deadly because we cannot see it coming.

Ill feelings have different causes and symptoms because we have all had different programming and experiences. We are 1 – but we are not all the same. That’s where 2 comes in to teach us about the chemistry – and potential – of our own different parts – mind, body, emotion – our individual diversity. October 2017 is a 2 month. Only inner peace can create outer peace. Everything starts within.
