2012 - A Year of Transformation
by Ann Frazier West on 01/01/12
Pythagoras, said to be the first man to call himself a philosopher, was also the first to demonstrate the mathematical foundation of music. Born sometime between 600 and 590 B.C., Pythagoras has been immortalized by his discoveries and teachings in relation to the Divine Science of Numbers - a science now called Numerology.
We can all approach the study of spiritual numerology both from the cosmic and the personal viewpoints. Numbers are the ten supreme Principles upon which the universe is founded. Every number possesses an individual keynote, and as we discover the deeper meanings to the numbers in our names, our birth dates, etc., we learn more about the forces operating from the higher spiritual planes on every level of our being.
According to Numerology, our new year 2012 brings us under the influence of the number five (5). 2+0+1+2=5.
In the ancient mysteries, the number 5 stands for the Christ, or the spirit, resurrected from the tomb of matter. Four (4) is the cross upon which one (1) is crucified. Only as the lower nature is subjugated or crucified does the ego begin to rise toward freedom through a recognition of its innate divinity.
The 5-pointed star in its highest status is represented by the sage.
The fifth letter of the Hebrew alphabet is Heh or H, the Hota of the ancient Greek. This letter means life or vitality; it refers not only to physical animation, but to the capacity for breathing a more rarefied air than that known to the average mortal.
When the "five" has learned the lessons that physical experience has to teach, he/she is ready to experience this inflow from the higher spheres which make him/her a new and different being - a transformed being.
"Such was the transformation that occurred in the lives of Abraham and Sarah with the addition of the letter "H" to their names. This transformation has a meaning for both the inner and the outer life. It manifests physically as exuberant health and expresses itself intellectually in an increasingly sensitized and enriched mind which in turn becomes instrumental through its well-focused and controlled powers to reflect more fully and accurately the faculties of the spirit within. True to the nature of the change as this may be known in the light of the science of numerical emanation, a new joy (Isaac) was born to the renewed lives of the patriarchal couple. It is only after such a new birth that one is really alive." (Corinne Heline)
Happy New Year!
Happy Transformation!
