Happy New Year - 2010!

I wrote two checks today with 1/1/ on them. It seemed awkward. Is it 010? No, 2010 or just 10? Hmmm, well that felt different so I wrote the check out dated 1/1/2010.

So what is it about this year over other year’s that seems odd and strange?

In Numerology 2+0+1+0 equals the number 3. Three is the number of time and fate – past, present, future. It is the number of family, of trinities in general such as father, mother, child and birth, life, death. The number three concerns matters of creation and procreation representing both spiritual and sexual creative power. It gives energy and receives understanding in return.

Arithromancy or Numeromancy as it is sometimes known, is an ancient offshoot of numerology seldom heard of today. The three in this Pythagorean system means the recognition of the Divine, the soul; destiny

Thursday is the day of the week associated with the number three and with Jupiter. A homily from ancient tales is: Thursday's child has far to go. In astrology, Jupiter rules Sagittarius which has the ability to expand through growth and understanding. 2010 under Jupiter appears to be about truth, philosophy, travel and physical movement.

The gift of Jupiter is to guide us to highest fulfillment and happiness. The key words for Jupiter are: curiosity, openness, expansion, luck, generosity, life purpose, blessings, optimism, and prosperity
Jupiter is said to influence all the good and noble things of life, and lead each of us toward a higher purpose. 2010 should show us more money and a greater sense of meaning. This is a year to take in new ideas, cultures, people, and allow it to add color and dimension to our lives.

In Sacred Geometry, Jupiter is represented by the statue of Jupiter (or Zeus) at Olympus. Which was built in 433 b.c. in Greece and is said to be the real site of the Olympic games, not Mt. Olympus.

The geometrical shape associated with Jupiter is the Triangle. 
Sagittarius is The Archer (21 Nov – 20 Dec.)  It is ruled by Jupiter in its positive aspect. The number associated with Sagittarius is 3 in the positive. The element is fire and key words are: I see.

Sagittarius brings out an extensive attitude, expressing freedom together with an urge to explore beyond our known environment.

As January 1st is the birthday of 2010, in numerology, the lesson to be learned in this year is to be able to express freely. Seize every opportunity for self-expression when it arises and develop it to achieve success through creative talents. This is the year to find personal freedom through work. It is the year for the journalist, writer, artist, musician and entertainer.

All things are made of energy. Color, sound and stones all have energetic signatures and vibrate at particular frequencies. The primary colors for the number three are: all shades of mauve, and violet through to the palest purples and lilacs. Subsidiary colors are blue, rose pink and yellow. Colors to avoid are greens, black and grey, also dark browns.

The gem stones associated with the number three are: amethyst and garnets.

Music also has measureable vibrations and the number three is associated with
music which is bright and cheerful usually with a pronounced beat.

Pythagoras has been credited with creating a system of number and letter combinations which were and are still used to “divine” meaning from names, dates and addresses to name some uses. The number three is related to the letters C, L and U.

C is the third letter in the English alphabet representing ‘energy’. The characteristics of this letter are: good-humored, extravagant, dexterous, orator and an organizer.

L is the twelfth letter of the alphabet representing ‘action’. The characteristics of this letter are: benevolent, management, loyal talented, balanced and travel.

U is not only the twenty-first letter of the alphabet but also the fifth and last of the ‘true’ vowels. It represents ‘accumulation’. The characteristics of this letter are: clever, fascination, acquisitive, fortunate and retentive memory.

Our mission in 2010 is to uplift and inspire others. We must learn how to communicate on all levels, improve our knowledge of the world around us. Use time wisely. Concentrate on one thing at a time and come to understand the real meaning of friendship.

The number three has always been regarded as the sublime number and this is evident in the Greek word ‘Trismegistos’ which means thrice greatest or eminently great. To the Pythagoreans it was the number of excellence because it has a beginning, middle, and end. Spells are often repeated three times, fairy tales are full of instances of the number three in the form of wishes, guesses or riddles and, in mythology, Neptune carried a triple-pronged staff. The Delphic Oracle held the tripod in great esteem.

Happy New Year! May this “3 year” bring you abundance on every realm and in all your endeavors.

Blessings, Jane
