A few words on Artemidorus' Oneirocritica

A number of years ago i purchased Oneirocritica by Artemidorus, generally referred to as The Interpretation of Dreams, written in Greek in the 2nd century. The translation from Greek was done by Robert J. White, printed in 1975 as part of the Noyes Classical Studies series by Noyes Press. (Noyes Press was purchased by William Andrew which itself was purchased by Elsevier). The copy i purchased was a reprint published in 1992 by The Banton Press which still has it listed under Miscellaneous. It's a cheap reprint--not all the pages were copied straight and the glue binding is not holding the papers well anymore--but i got a good book for a good price. The ISBN is 1856520463, for which a google search seems to produce some results. There seems to be other translations as well.

A friend found an introductory article to the work which explains a little bit about it and its setup. Ignoring the introduction and notes, the book is split into 5 parts--each called a book, and seemingly published as such--with an introduction and sections in each book explaining how to interpret dreams. The first four books are rules, and the last one gives examples. The first two were published, the third was added to answer criticism that he left things out. These three are dedicated to Cassius Maximus. The last two are dedication to his (Aretemidorus') son Artemidorus, to whom he writes in the introduction of the fourth:

>You must keep in mind, however, that this book has been addressed to you so that you will use it for your own purposes, not that you will make it accessible to other by making copies of it. For what is written here, as long as it remains with you alone, will make you a more excellent interpreter of dreams than anyone and inferior to no man. But once it becomes the common property of everyone, it will be obvious that you know nothing more than everyone else.

35 Days and Counting

"The number 3 symbolizes kindness, joy, creativity, and imagination. It represents inspiration, creation, manifestation, and growth. It symbolizes the interconnectedness of your body, mind, and spirit, and is aligned with the divine energy."

"The number 5 brings adaptability, independence of thought and action, and an unwillingness to (completely) conform. 5 is also the number of freedom and change."

... yes, the title of my post was a numerology pun. If you aren't groaning over that one, please do your best to struggle through the rest, because I'm a wordy girl and have so much gratitude to express for !!35 days of sobriety!!

Day 35 is a important milestone to me, so I wanted to post something special to commemorate 35 days with you fine people and 35 days getting to know who I am without the haze of substance use shadowing my brightness. These numbers, 3 and 5, have always been "lucky" for me, but digging a bit deeper into their spiritual meanings has given me some insight on what 35 days of sobriety truly means. Without alcohol, I have become a more compassionate person, and I choose to focus on what brings me happiness rather than what digs me deeper into the funk I've been living in for the past 10 years, being a daily drinker. My inspiration to draw, read, and write has returned, and I'm grateful that I haven't lost the ability to express myself creatively, nor have I burnt out the brain cells that allow me to draw connections between the experiences of others, read here and in many sobriety-oriented self-help books, and apply them to my own life.

My mind, body, and spirit are coming into balance, and I'm noticing so many changes as a result of exercising not only my brain and body, but also that Good Things seem to be better and brighter as my connection to a Higher Power forms and I learn to communicate with that entity which remains amorphous to me, but grows ever clearer as I surrender my life more completely to it. Conversely, the bad things are easier to shrug off, and it's easy to turn negative energy into positive, even in those around me.

I have learned to adapt, to be independent, and yet I feel more connected to others than ever before. I enjoy my weekly AA meetings, chatting with my Group friends, reconnecting with my family, and cultivating the relationships I let wither in favor of isolation and inebriation. Some of these relationships are new, and some will be discarded, and some

Taylor Numerology (and the pointlessness of date prediction)

Something that has bothered me for a while is how some people obsess and become convinced of when Taylor will release something next, and particularly how they will use the number 13 to back up their theory, using the date. We know 13 is a special number for Taylor, and she will typically use it for release dates, but guessing a date based on it adding to the #13 somehow is going to be about as accurate as just throwing a dart at a dartboard, blindfolded, because...

I just crunched the numbers, and approx 26% of dates this year alone would be able to be made to add up to the number 13, depending on methodology used:

  1. Day + Month (12 days) (e.g. 1st December is 1+12 = 13)
  2. Sum of digits of Day + Month (23 days) (e.g. 25th June is 2+5+6 = 13)
  3. Sum of digits of Day + Month + 2-digit Year (36 days) (e.g. 11th August 21 is 1+1+8+2+1 = 13)
  4. Sum of digits of Day + Month + 4-digit year (30 days) (e.g. 20th June 2021 is 2+0+6+2+0+2+1 = 13)

There are some duplicates between them, but the number of unique days for which either of these 4 options work.

I also haven't even just simply included dates that are just the 13th of the month - which would give us an extra 9 unique days (3 "13ths" this year get counted already in other rules)

So that means that feasibly, any day has about a 1/4 chance of being a "releasable" date for Taylor... Sorry to put a spanner in the clowning works!!

I think I get frustrated because as a Christian, I get fed up of people trying to "predict" Jesus's second coming or the apocalypse, and it often feels like some people predicting Taylor's next release is on the same level... (and some with the same level of religious fervour!!) ... Just like Christ's return is up to God, the second comings of Taylor's albums are entirely up to her and we do not know the date nor the time... (until she tells us)...

For Those Into Numerology

Whether you believe numbers have significance when it comes to events and historic dates (or even if we know what year it really is), it matters little. Those behind the scenes making things happen have clearly shown time and again that the numbers matter greatly to them.

With that in mind, you might take note that May 17th of this year is considered to be the 3,333rd anniversary of receiving Torah at Sinai. It might be an interesting year for Israel and the world.

A study of numerology reveals that L3 will release on July 7th!

Here's my proof:

L=50 in Roman numerals

O=Oscar in the NATO alphabet

R=18th letter in the alphabet

D=Delta in the Greek alphabet

E=a mathematical constant equal to 2.71828

The 50th Academy Awards (Oscars) was on April 3rd, 1978...the birthday of English actor Matthew Goode. Goode's 18th acting credit on IMDB is Burning Man, which had a runtime of 1 hour, 50 minutes or 110 minutes. Delta is the 4th letter in the Greek alphabet. So 110 multiplied by 4 is 440. 440 dived by e is 202.0202020202020. Which if we convert to binary is 10101010 10101010. In ASCII that's aa. AA Milne is the author of Winnie the Pooh, who was wounded at the Battle of the Somme on 7 July 1916.

So Ella has clearly let us know that L3 will release on 7 July!

Clear as day!

Call me a curious mathematician. What ways do you find numerology to be useful?

Full disclosure: I'm a skeptic of most things Astrological/Spiritual in nature, but Numerology catches my eye because certain numbers DO have modern uses that render them incredibly useful. For instance, powers of 2 are useful for optimizing the memory layout of computer programs, gigantic prime numbers are useful for cryptography, and everyone's favorite constants pi, i, and e are all throughout any STEM field you can think of.

Given that, I believe there is merit in studying how Numerology influences people's decisions in less scientific settings, as those decisions still recursively influence others' decisions and it starts turning into an application of Game Theory

I recently stumbled into the concept of "Universal Months" and found that the methodology used to calculate it results in a pattern that cycles every 36 years. Now I'm not sure what numerological symbolism would be associated with that, but I do know that aligns (as in the least common multiple) with the 12-year cycle of the Chinese Zodiac, and it also aligns with the 4-year cycle of US elections. It has me curious; many things in astrology make predictions of what people would be like, but rarely do they go into details on what periodic occurrences shape our perceptions.

So I need data to find the answers to stuff like this; please tell me what patterns and practices you follow most frequently that give you the most consistent results, good or bad.

Has anyone looked into Numerology? INFJ coincides with #9

According to personality-database.com, INFJ coincides with the life path #9. It fits so well. In numerology, life path 9, also known as β€œthe humanitarian”, is the number of compassion, generosity, emotion, wisdom, insight, self-sacrifice, and awareness. The only issue is, not everyone will have that life path # since everyone has a different birthday. My life path # is 6. Which # do you guys think is more meaningful? The # that coincides with your personality or your actual life time #? I am confused because #9 fits so well but it is not my actual life path #.

A little bit of numerology

The wikipedia page on β€œBuddhist cosmology” includes measurements of distance in units of yojana which are on the order of magnitude of the planets within the solar system. Another coincidence is that the number of measurements on the page is also on the same order of magnitude as the number of planets.

Pali Canon is how old?

How old is first calculation of distance of planets.

Would be interesting to see if the order of magnitude was not correctly estimated through meditation before more and more precise measurements came around.

Relating Astrology to/with Numerology (Scorpio and Life Path #7)

I heavily believe my life path number and astrology sign suits me about 95% (if not more). I have been working on learning more about others who enter my life and the signs. I've helped a few friends understand how their life path numbers can hold a key part in their lives.

The problem is, I have nobody to ask who can help explain deeper aspects regarding my spiritual representation.

Does anyone have tips about strengths, difficulties, constructive input, etc., regarding the correlation of a Scorpio and Life Path 7? Both spiritual identities, have a mysterious side and hide themselves from others intentionally or unknowingly. Do they play a role with each other? I feel, from some deep diving, that being a life path 7 and Scorpio may strengthen one anothers (unsure what word to use here but...) "label", "spiritual strengths/weaknesses", or "definition(?)". Is this true?

Any tips, links, and/or opinions, are appreciated .

I read the rules and the beginner guide, and couldn't find my answer.

I'm now curious on astrology and numerology and how it relates to tarot.

WTW for the sort of reasoning used in things like numerology and general logical leaps; guilt by vague association? From a German philosopher I think.

it's an ism of some sort. The sort of logic where "Obama's daughters are Natasha and Malia. Spelled backwards is AiLam AHsatan. Now remove the letters ALAH from the names. I AM SATAN". Read an article I can't find again that talked about a philosopher who wrote on the topic of this illogic, think he was German of the early modern era.

I once had a coworker who was on some numerology/theology/astrology tip that would talk about sexually enslaving whamen and spiritually owning them with his mind.

He would have seemingly benign conversations with girls at work and then re-cap them to me as though they just had verbal sex. Then he would say that he could "feel those bitches' spirit on him" and describe how their spirits were either standing at watch over his shoulder or sitting in his lap. Occasionally, his weird pseudo-flirting did seem to kinda work , but it it also seemed to offend more than your average friendly guy.

Dude claims to have thousands of women he could summon and reclaim at any time just by willing it.
