Ag ek weet nie wat ek verwag het oor die getal 13 nie, iets heel anders dalk.

Die nommer 13 is die getal van die Goddelike vrou wat deur Siener en Johanna Brandt voorspel is en daarom is dit ook gekoppel aan die wederkoms.

Hier is wat ek gekry het oor die getal 13...
Symbolic Meaning of Number Thirteen
From a numerological perspective, we first recognize the presence of the 3. Symbolic meaning of number three is vast and powerful. At its simples, the symbolic meaning of the number three deals with:
Creation
Completion
Order
Advancement
Mystery
The meaning of Three is about the union of two parts to create a unique whole. That point of union forms the fruit of knowledge -it is our access point to unlimited potential.
It is no accident that all the mystic teachings incorporate the power of three within their folds. Three represents the union of the numbers prior to it (One and Two). Numerologically speaking, if One represents force, and Two represents an opening, then Three is the birthing of true wisdom.
Manly Hall said "Three is the equilibrium of the unities." We see this in innumerable forms:
Spirit, Mind, Body
Father, Son, Holy Ghost
Mother, Father, Child
Past, Present, Future
Power, Intellect, Love
Creator, Destroyer, Sustainer
Creation, Preservation, Destruction
Thought, Feeling, Emotion
Just to name a few occurances of trinities in esoteric perspectives.
The meaning of Three deals with finding the right mix between the two founding pillars of our life constsruct. In the cards we see the meaning of three as a sort of culmination.
We can look to the triangle for assistance here. If we see the process of growth as a triangle, we move up lateral sides to reach the tip, essentially ascending to the top by incorporating our duality. By working together, we find unity. Conversely, we may descend the philosophical triangle in order to reach the source. This is still done by unifying our strongest attributes.
The meaning of Three reminds us we are all connected and it is only through this connection that progress can be made. To further our understanding of Three, we may meditate upon these
questions - please keep in mind - these are highly conceptual questions. I'm asking you to think in terms of intangibles rather than solid experience:
Are the sum of my parts working together towards unified glory?
How can I find strength through the sacred trinity?
If I had to assign philosophical meanings to each side of a triangle, what would they be? Why?
How can I utilize this philosophical triangle to propel me into an existence on a higher level?
What does it feel like to be in between
What is my concept of time? Friend or foe? How does this affect my life?
What kind of structure do I have in place that secures my spiritual evolution?
Visually, the meaning of Three illustrates (tipped horizontally too):
Female form - Nurturing, life giving
Labyrinth - Making sense of variables
Eyes - Having the vision to see the connections
Lemniscate (when two 3s pressed together forming an infinity symbol) - Union of the divine creates infinite possibility
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We then recognize the presence of the number 1, which precedes the number three. This amplifies the preexisting symbolic meaning of the number one, which deals with:
Beginnings
Initiation
Solidarity
Unity
Birth
The meaning of One is about the initial point of contact. The Zohar indicates: "When the Unknown of Unknowns chose to be revealed, it came as one point of light."
This statement is profound. It is in this statement that we derive the prime meaning of number One. If we come from the understanding that prior to One there is void - we begin to see the gravity represented by One.
Effectually, One changes the landscape. It alters the entire view of what was before.
When we encounter One's in our lives or in the cards we are asked to recognize that which sets the fire to burn. In other words, we must observe the point of ignition in our lives. This analogy is best illustrated with a few questions you may ask yourself when confronted with the meaning of One:
What is the point of contact that lights up my life?
What beginning action must be taken to move me in a desired direction?
Where is the point of entry? That space I can enter into in order to clearly see and change my landscape?
Alternatively, the meaning of One is also an indicator of completion. Just as we see reference to the beginning (the Alpha) One also symbolizes the ending (the Omega). Even in the ending's One is changing the landscape of our lives, because as an ending approaches we must become aware of a new beginning on its heels.
Lastly, and perhaps most importantly the number One reminds us to focus. It is only through concentration that we are able to accomplish anything. With singleness of mind, body and spirit there is no end to our potential. In this light, we can identify our objective and see clearly to our prime purpose (which, ideally, would be to ease into the knowledge of our highest, truest selves).
Meaning of One in Western numerology and Tarot ? a quick reference:
Will
Force
Drive
Unity
Focus
Action
Vision
Clarity
Initiation
Purpose
Ambition
Solidarity
Narrowing
Beginnings
Visually, the meaning of One illustrates:
Door - One way in, one way out
Street - A path in a new direction
Staff - A motion in one direction
Arrow - Hitting the focused target
Sword - Cutting through to reach clarity
Building - Reaching higher and higher
Singly, these individual number meanings put together tell a story of a path that is just beginning (number one), and will lead to greatness in the expression of the union of opposites (number three).
Adding and reducing the single numbers, is a common practice in numerology. Do this, we receive another symbolic meaning of the number thirteen. To wit: 1+3=4. Fours lend a grounding effect to the high-pitch energy of 13. The energy of number four brings the thirteen down to a level where we can begin to rationalize its meaning more clearly. The reduction to four is a message that at its core, the thirteen is a means to an end and this numeric energy will always return us to the calm root or source which is ultimately our cosmic home.
In a deeper numerological perspective, thirteen can be considered the fulfillment or manifestation of the number three.
It is also important to note the number thirteen is a prime number and is only divisibly by itself. This is symbolic of:
Incorruptible nature
Purity
Integrity
In the language of the Tarot, the number thirteen is represented in the Death card, which is symbolic of:
Transition
Change
Inevitability
