Twelve as a mysthic and mythological number is quite interesting:
in 12 are the first two numbers (1 and 2) (resambles something like like yin and yang) in 12 there are the first three numbers (1+2=3) in 12 are the first four numbers - the numbers of the Tetraktys (12 = 3*4 -> (1+2+3+4) = 10 (malkuth) 12 has more dividers then the numbers before (1,2,3,4,6,12). That may the reason it was choosen as a basic number for systems ( hours on the clock, months in the year) Old masons had a rope which was divided in 12 parts. If you bild a triangel from it with side-lenghts of 3,4,5 you get a right angle. The gnostics emanation knowed 12 aeons. 12 signs on the zodiac - in China and in the West 12 book of judges, 12 prophets, 12 tribes of israel (from 12 sons of Jakob) the jewish high-priest had 12 emeralds on his pentacel 12 disciples of Jesu, 12 apostel 12 fruits on the Tree of Life 12 stars in crown of Marie 12 gates of Jerusalem 12 Imams of the Shia Islam 12 titans of the greeks 12 gods in the pantheon 12 Rays of Light from the crown of Sun-god Apoll 12 children of earth-goddess Niobe 12 labors for Heracles 12 gods in the pantheon of Rom (and the Etrusks and Hethits) 12 altars for Janus (one of the oldes of the gods) 12 halls of aesirs in Asgard 12 companions of Siegfried 12 knights on the Table of King Arthur in Camelot 12 paladins of Emperor Karl the Great etc, etc.... |

No need to feel silly - you are just ... a f00l.
Sometimes the fool is the only one, who says it right. There is a thin line between a fool and a prophet. Some people say there is no line. And there are those who think that in Gods heart - there is a fool.... ------------- The Number of the Fool: ![]() ![]() PS: ...subscription to the Hollow Earth Society... subscription - 12 letters Hollow - 6 letters ! (12/2) Earth Society - 12 letters ...now we need a rabbi. ![]() ![]() Last edited by Smaragdadler; 04-19-07 at 04:59 AM. |

Argh! it's all true hehe
along with the rabbi, can we have seers, farseers and withinlookmen? That guy looks prety carefree, in a kind of 'puss in boots' sort of way. I take it that's a tarrot card then?

EDIT: Reminder, the Christian video is based on a Jewish Psalm, plus the prayer is for Israel, a Jewish nation. But no matter. Quote:

![]() Madame Sosostris, famous clairvoyante, Had a bad cold, nevertheless Is known to be the wisest woman in Europe, With a wicked pack of cards. Here, said she, Is your card, the drowned Phoenician Sailor, (Those are pearls that were his eyes. Look!) Here is Belladonna, The Lady of the Rocks, The lady of situations. Here is the man with three staves, and here the Wheel, And here is the one-eyed merchant, and this card, Which is blank, is something he carries on his back, Which I am forbidden to see. I do not find The Hanged Man. Fear death by water. I see crowds of people, walking round in a ring. Thank you. T.S. Eliot - The Waste Land ...................... ![]() ![]() Support the mystic arts.
