1/11/2002 comes across as 111 and 22.  111 is the main highway that runs through Palm Springs and the desert.  It is the first triple number.  Its factors are 3:The Empress and 37:King of Cups = Riding the Subconscious.  This has always come across as a meaningful spiritual number for me.  Spirit is 179992 = 37.  Hmm ... how interesting, I'm sure I knew that, but I've examined so many number, that it slipped my mind.  Also, note the 999 triple in the breakout of spirit.  16 x 111 = 1776, the year of the Declaration of Independence.  How appropriate that 16:The Tower would be involved!  Also, 7/4= The Benefactor, one of the forms of G-D.  16 x 3 x 37 is also 48:The Man in Search of More x 37:Riding the Subconscious and spirit.  999 + 999 = 1998, the second year that mania uprooted my existence in a major way.  I guess that's one way of putting it.  This is 18:The Moon x 111, another step in the cycles of 111.  Actually, it is the completion of the 18th cycle and the beginning of the 19:The Sun cycle.

There is a sense that I am supposed to see this geometrically as a triangle with ones at each vertice and 22 in the middle.

This is the first triangle that one can build around oneself.  Hmm ... This suggests that the four digit numbers are similar, only resulting in either a square ... or better yet a tetrahedron.  11/11/2002, the 6th anniversary of my current job is just 10 months away.  It will be interesting to see what we build be then.  For this truly is construction of a major order, and 22 after all is the Master Builder!

Interesting, both of these figures suggest that no matter which side you approach the ship of Self, you always see 11:Justice, the first Master Number.  Actually, that is true for the Ryder Tarot deck, others have 8:Strength and 11:Justice reversed.

Let's see, 2/22/2002 is the next and only other triple, and there are no other quad numbers.  1/11, 2/22. and 11/11 are very special numbers in this regard.  They reappear each year creating a structure around the year itself.  It is interesting that 2/22/2002 is all twos.  Having started a new millenium, we have ten years with 00 in the middle.  However, most years have four digits.  1996, a 25 year was when I got my present job ... starting work on 11/11.  Staring at 11/11, it comes across as one of the forms of 22, an even breakout into two parts.  There is something special going on here.  There is a sense that I am on the verge of discovering it, but am not quite there.  Oh well, it will come when the time is right.

On a different topic, gas prices rose again this week, 11 cents a  gallon.  Thats a 17 percent increase in two weeks.  Surely, the supply has not changed so dramatically in that short of a time period.  It is still not clear to me what forces truly drive the economic system.  There is more than the principle of supply and demand operating.  It did seem pretty ridiculous to be spending less than a dollar per gallon when the price has been far more than that for so long ... and nearly twice as much at times during the past year.  This opens up the issue of what is a "fair" price to pay, and who should determine this and how.  Open competition is supposed to be the way for this to occur in a free market.  In theory the price will naturally adjust to a point where there is sufficient profit but not excessive profit.  If there is too much profit, it is easy for additional businesses to enter the market and provide the product or service at a lower price.  Further, there will only be enough businesses providing the good or service to meet the collective demand.  Businesses that don't make money don't stay in business.  Actually, there seem to be exceptions to this ... Netscape being a major one that I can think of.

See a need and fill it ... that is the key to economic success.  Hmm ... that seems to be what the spiritual directive calls for as well, to provide ones services to help fill the needs of society.  These needs occur in four domains: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.  So what particular needs do I choose to help fill.  Clearly, my forte is in the mental and spiritual dimensions.  However, it is not clear that the masses or even a significant fraction of the population realize that they have needs in these areas that are not being filled by present educational institutions and religious institutions. Further, it is not clear what specific services I might be able to provide to whom.  It would be nice to be paid for musing ... that is indeed what I love to do.  All in good time. The musings will evolve into whatever need spirit would have them meet.  That is sufficient for me.

I've been thinking about families of numbers.  These are numbers that reduce to the same thing in numerology.  It is interesting, that this involves adding and removing factors of 9:The Hermit.  I noticed that 37 = our old friend 28:The Man with the World in His Hand + 9.  The first part of this family is:

1, 10, 19, 28, 37, 46, 55, 64, 73, 82, 91, 100, 109

We've seen 19:The Sun, 28:Two of Wands, 46:Six of Cups, and 91:Death Exalted in the past couple weeks.  All of the 1 numbers are associated with Will ... though 64:Ten of Swords is Complete Renouncing of the Will.

The next family is:

2, 11, 20, 29, 38, 47, 56, 65, 74, 83, 92, 101, 110

Most of these numbers reduce to the Master Number 11 rather than 2 when operating from higher consciousness. 11, 38, 47, and 74 have been particularly meaningful to me.

Continuing,

3, 12, 21, 30, 39, 48, 57, 66, 75, 84, 93, 102, 111 ... 228

Of these: 21, 30, 57, and 75 are parts of my name, 48:Man in Search of More is my birthday, 66 is the number of years to the completion of the 22 cycle of 88 from my birth in 22:22(88) in 1958.  84 is the number for my whole name, and 111 we've spoken of often.  Note that 228, another signature number for me is in this family.

4, 13, 22, 31, 40, 49, 58, 67, 76, 85, 94, 103, 112

This is somewhat foreign.  We've seen 13:Death, and 22:The Fool complete many times.  These are signature numbers for me.  112 is important as the 1000 completion for 888, taking us to the fourth dimension of expression.

5, 14, 23, 32, 41, 50, 59, 68, 77, 86, 95, 104, 113

wayne/Wayne/WAYNE is 23, 41, 68.  And 2184 = 21 x 104.  77 is the Falconer, the number for CHRIST.  There is sense that this family involves the concrete manifestation of ideas in flesh.  5 is also the second spiritual ray in my makeup.

6, 15, 24, 33, 42, 51, 60, 69, 78, 87, 96, 105, 114

The Lovers, The Devil, Q of Wands, Master Teacher, Two of Cups:Wing Lion above Caduceus, Tarot Completion, and the Hermit Exalted are in this family.

7, 16, 25, 34, 43, 52, 61, 70, 79, 88, 97, 106, 115

The Chariot, The Tower, My Ray Makeup, My Expanded Hearts Desire, My Personality, 70: The Juggle = the 528 card, and Infinity Above, Infinity Below are all in this family.

8, 17, 26, 35, 44, 53, 62, 71, 80, 89, 98, 107, 116

Strength, The Star, God, Spiritual Inheritance, Practical Master, Working Furiously, Blindfolded Lady, True Heaven Lies within, Infinity tied to Source: Justice Exalted: Judgement Exalted.

9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99, 108, 117 ... 576, 756, 1008

I relate closely to 9:The Hermit and 18:The Moon, 54 is LOVE, and 1008 and 1800 are important numbers for me.  99 comes across as the most useful breakout of 18 into parts.  However, I don't relate much to the rest of the numbers in this family.  I just went back and added 576 and 756.  Note that all of the Cubic Pyramid numbers are divisible by 36 hence are multiples of 9 hence are in this family!

OK, that helped me put together some of the pieces.  Its probably too abbreviated to convey much meaning to the layperson however.  That's OK ... feel free to skip through those parts that you do not relate to.  The purpose of this communication is multifold.  One part is for me to document the connections that I make between things. The key point above is that there are nine families of numbers and that each of these have a different nature.  No, I didn't spell out what that nature is.  It needs to be derived from the qualities of the constituent members.

The family of 9:The Hermit is the only one in which all the numbers are multiples of a particular number ... in this case 9 of course.  This makes it very special.  It is curious that I have been moved to live my life in this manner.  Note that 9 can take us close to completion 9, 99, 999, 9999 ... etc; but it is always ONE short of reaching the next dimension.  As such, it is the completion of the present level ... but it needs something more to progress further.  Interesting, that more is found in the family of 1.  9 + 1 = 10, 18 + 82 = 100, 27 + 73 = 100, and so on.

Similarly, 2 - 8, 3 - 7, and 4 - 6 complete each other.  The family of 5 is special in that it completes itself.  That is, member of the family of 5 complete themselfs or complete other members in the family.

5 + 95 = 100, 14 + 86 = 100, 23 + 77 = 100, 32 + 68 = 100 and so on ...

I know, more connections that don't necessarily make sense yet.  But, they open whole new worlds for my mind to consider and explore.  Making connections is what it is all about.  That is what minds do after all.  The more connections, and the deeper connections ... the more interesting the fabric of the web or reality that an individual is able to perceive and create.  This is how we build our world, by tying pieces together and putting them in-formation.  We truly live in an information age.  Those who develop the skills to thrive in this age will live and prosper.  Those who don't may become as dinosaurs.

I AM THAT I AM THAT YOU ARE!   Be Happy and Create Well!

LOVE,

Wayne
