Thanks for that Andy, that is a fascinating read.

We appear to be fascinated by the number nine in particular because everywhere we look we find it is presented or represented somewhere in the physical aspect of creation. A very interesting point about the number nine is it always becomes itself. It cannot be anything else. Multiply nine by anything and add up the digits and they will always come back to nine. E.g. 9 x 9 = 81. 8 + 1 = nine. Or take, 9 x 219 = 1971. 1 + 9 + 7 + 1 = 18 and 1 + 8 = nine; and so on. The number nine will always come back to itself. Just like a circle. What is even more interesting about numbers, is when we add together one through eight, we get 36. 3 + 6 = 9, nine again. We then add one through nine (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9) together and we get 45. 4 + 5 = 9, yet again nine. So it would appear that nine is the culmination of all the other numbers one through eight.

In ancient times, the cycle of the Earth around the Sun was a perfect 360 days. They therefore calculated the year as 360 days  - 12 months of 30 days [and/or 36 weeks of 10 days]. Until the seventh and eighth centuries BC, calendars from around the globe recorded the 360 day cycle but suddenly, we find in this period, that calendars began adding days to both the length of the year and to the months to try and re-synchronise the calendar with the solar and lunar cycles (detailed in the fascinating book Worlds In Collision by I Velikovsky). It has been postulated that the misalignment may have been due to one or more cataclysmic events such as the Earth passing through the tail of a comet which caused the path curve of the earth and/or its velocity to alter. This could be the reason why the number nine in numerology has also been associated with natural disasters such as floods.

However, we do retain this ancient order in geometry because we still divide a circle (the ancient symbol for the Sun) into 360 segments called degrees. 360° numerologically is 3 + 6 + 0 = 9. Therefore, this is a nine number.

If we, therefore, apply this method of numerology to other geometric shapes we get interesting results. The diamond is four lots of 90°, which equals 360°; nine again. The square is the same, nine. The equilateral triangle is 60° + 60° + 60°,  = 180°: 1 + 8 + 0 = 9, another nine. If we look at the pentagram, five lots of 36°: = 180°; another nine. The hexagram (Star of David) = 360°: the same story, a nine. We could go on and on.

The hexagram is particularly interesting in relation to the circle, the sun and the nine. In ancient times, the hexagram within the circle was used as a symbol of the zodiac cycle. The sun was seen as the centre of the circle which, due to the six-pointed star pattern, is surrounded by 12 divisions - the 12 houses of the zodiac. In Sumerian times, the zodiac was based on the Earth’s precessional cycle of 25,920 years - again a nine. The precessional cycle is the length of time the Earth takes to ‘wobble’ around its axis. Just like a spinning top which is tilted to one side, the Earth’s central axis is tilted towards or away from the sun and takes that length of time for one revolution of this tilt to return to its former position. During which time, the constellations of the heavens will slowly move backward across the sky to new positions according to the view from the Earth.

The Sumerians divided the precessional period into 12 equal parts of 2,160 (360-day) years, which is of course a nine number. The Sumerians used a base-sixty form of measurement rather than base-ten - the decimal - to calculate time as it works perfectly with the 360-day calendar. It is from the Sumerian influence that we divide our clocks into 60 minutes and 60 seconds, which gives a very harmonious interplay between minutes, hours, the circle of 360, the solar and lunar cycles and the larger zodiac cycles.

We are more familiar, today, with the annual cycle of the zodiac which arises from the 12 divisions - the months - of the year which are used to calculate the horoscope, based upon the position of the rapidly shifting constellations which move across the sky when viewed from the Earth.

1080 is the average number of human breaths drawn per hour, another nine. 1080 is also linked with the energy of The Mother, in her various forms as Diana etc., and the lunar energy. Interestingly the radius of the Moon is 1080 miles. Amazingly, the Moon has always been associated with the colour of Silver, whose atomic weight is 108 - nine yet again!  If we look at the number 666 - the sum of the numbers 1-36 (nine) - to some people it represents the Devil, the Mark of the Beast. The Book of Revelation relates this number to the Apocalypse, which is again linked to natural disasters. Could this be what is encoded in the Book of Revelation? Some numerological memory of the instability of the Earth and its vulnerability to outside forces, such as may have altered the ancient 360 day cycle in the pre-Judaic times? To other people, however, this number represents the energy of the Father, the Solar Energy. If we add 1080 and 666 together they equal 1746, which to some represents the Grail, the Seed and the Vessel, the totality of creation. A nine number. 1746 is also deemed by some as being related to the Earth’s Electromagnetic Grid.

Another notable nine number - 72 - is the average number of heartbeats per minute, the number of stones of the pyramid of the Freemasonic Great Seal of the American Dollar. Cabbalists have various ways of writing the name of God, Yod Heh Vav Heh. One of them consists of a triangle in which the name is written in blazing letters. The numerical value of Yod is ten, that of Heh five and that of Vav six.  The sum of the numerical value of the letters in the triangle is seventy-two (72) and seventy-two is the number of the Shem hamephorash (translated as the 'explicit name'), the seventy-two angels that govern the universe. [ Mikhael Aivanhov - Cosmic Balance, published by Prosveta S.A. - B.P.12 - 83601 Frejus CEDEX (France)]. 72, therefore, is the Cabbalistic number for the Names or Powers of God and is said in Cabbalistic tradition, for that very reason, to be the number represented by the Star of David (hexagram), which we have already seen is fundamentally connected to the geometry and numerology of the cosmic cycles that are based upon nine.

186,282 is the maximum speed of light in miles per second, which represents the fastest speed achievable in the physical universe. There are 4,320,000 years in the Mahayuga, the Hindu cosmic time cycle. Both nine numbers. We have a gestation period of nine months for a human birth, surely a clear indication of nine being symbolically representative of the physical aspect of creation Moreover, within our solar system there are nine physical planets in orbit around their spiritual centre - the sun.

Taking the concept of geometry into three dimensions, there are only five regular solids - known as the ‘Platonic solids’ - which are the only five regular three-dimensional geometric forms which can be fitted inside a sphere. These are:

Cube                                       Total faces                            6

                                                Angles per face                    90x4 = 360

                                                Total angles of all faces      2160 (24x90) = nine

Icosahedron                          Total faces                            20

                                                Angles per face                    60x3 = 180

                                                Total angles of all faces      3600 (60x60) = nine

Octahedron                           Total faces                            8

                                                Angles per face                    60x3 = 180

                                                Total angles of all faces      1440 (24x60) = nine

Tetrahedron                          Total faces                            4

                                                Angles per face                    60x3 = 180

                                                Total angles of all faces      720 (12x60) = nine

Dodecahedron                      Total faces                            12

                                                Angles per face                    108x5 = 540

                                                Total angles of all faces      6480 (60x108) = nine

Can we now begin to understand Man’s intellectual fascination with geometric shapes and the number nine in particular? This obsession is represented in many of the ways Man has attempted to explain existence itself and the way he has attempted to and succeeded in controlling people. We also have the 144,000 Children of Israel on Mt. Zion mentioned in the Bible, which again adds up to nine and the 144,000, the ‘chosen’ few who will be ‘saved’. In the New Age movement we see the number nine appears in the form of symbols, the merkaba (star tetrahedron) and allegedly superior forms of beings, such as the Council of Nine and other channelled beings.

Bruce Cathie2 speculated that all the mathematical evidence so far indicates that the maximum number of elements (matter) to be found in the universe will be 144, nine.

Nine has always been the focus of Man himself and the ego consciousness, which drives him, because most people only choose to see physically and understand intellectually. After all are we not taught from a very early age in most societies to be intellectual rather than spiritual? Therefore, what we observe intellectually all about us becomes ‘all that is’ to our ego, and all around us is based upon the numbers of 1-9 - the end result of creation, matter, the physical aspect.

Let us go back to Egyptian times. This was the time when Man decided through his ego, which of all the ‘Gods’ were to be the greatest. Thus Man created the Ennead, which represented a group of nine of the most important Egyptian deities. Ennead is from the Greek word for nine and Enneads are also envisaged as being a judgement council, both in mythology and historical inscriptions. This is the derivation of the so-called Council of Nine as documented in the best-selling book ‘The Only Planet of Choice’. Is this not the old Illusion again, but wearing a different hat? Control and manipulation of the truth again? Is it no more than religion repeating itself?

Nine is made up of and contains all the other numbers or all the other vibrations and would appear to be represented in many geometrical shapes. As mentioned in part one, on an energy level of creation, the level of the Ahnu (ether/spirit), Nature does not work in angles. Only in the physical world where the ether/energy/spirit animates matter, do we see these geometric shapes form. Geometric shapes are what Man sees and perceives with his intellect as being the source of creation, when they merely represent the end result. Can we assume for simplicity that all the numbers one to nine are different vibrations, as numerology would have us believe? Can we further assume that all the numbers, or vibrations, which make up the nine, are, therefore, all the various vibrations of the universe in a physical sense? That is the inert part – matter - the 0.0001% of who and what everything is, as Bruce Cathie speculated?

Accepting this, we can also accept that the physical and the intellect can go no further because once it becomes nine we know it will only keep on repeating itself. The vibration of nine is the limit of physical creation; just as the speed of light - a nine - is the limit of speed in the physical universe. Could this be therefore, the number of Man in a physical and intellectual sense? This is what the Book of Revelation tells us - that 666 (nine) is the number of (a) man. Therefore the number of the Beast is the number of Man; that is, Man is confined by the number to being a beast - i.e. to expressing the baser aspects of the self. Nine is the limit of the ego, the limit of the intellect. Nine is a vibrational prison, as it can be no other than what it is, a vibration which keeps repeating itself and like the speed of light cannot be physically or intellectually transcended.

Is this why we keep making the same mistakes over and over again? Because we have become locked into our intellect and we are becoming more like machines than the integrated, loving and totally interconnected consciousness we truly are? Similar to the goldfish in a bowl swimming around in continuous circles? Can we understand how Man has become so fascinated by and locked into the number nine, and therefore mathematics and geometric shapes? Man continues to use mathematics and geometry to express his understanding of the deeper workings of Nature and the Cosmos and forgets, or is not allowed to remember they are merely a symbolic representation of hidden truths.

**********

So what feeds the nine (matter)? We know from open-minded physicists that ether (spirit) animates matter. If nine (including the numbers 9 down to 1) is representative of the whole of the physical aspect of creation, something has to be responsible for creating and animating it. For the answer to this we need to go back to the circle and it is here we can discover Man’s ‘missing link’. We know the circle is a nine number and that nine can only ever be itself, so nine must be represented somewhere within the circle. This leaves us with two possibilities for looking at how the circle is made up. We can divide the circle by eight, which would give us eight segments of 45° degrees, preserving the nine. However, eight is a lower vibration than nine, so I believe we need to divide the circle by the number greater than nine - TEN - to give ten segments of 36°, 3+6=9. We now have ten aspects of nine making up the circle, which is also nine. So the aspect of nine repeating itself is preserved. 10 x 9 = 90, 9 + 0 = 9.

See symbolic representation above. This introduces us to another number, the number ten. If we now add one through nine and finally add Ten, we have 45 + 10 = 55, 5 + 5 = 10! It appears that nine cannot exist without Ten. Because we know that ether feeds matter, then ether feeds nine from within, from beyond nine. Numerically speaking, here we see that 10 comes from 'above' nine and would seem to be the transcendent number of 9. (Could this be where the axiom 'As Above So Below' originates from? Is this why we have had this simple inversion of truth expressed upon us because once again we have taken this symbolic representation too literally?). From this example we need ten for the nine and all it is composed of to exist in the first place. It would appear ten creates and animates all of the other vibrations, one to nine, the physical aspect of creation. Without ten we cannot have nine or anything below it.

Symbolically, ten has been represented by the symbol ;. Interestingly the symbolic representation for the Sun – fire/spirit - is also ;. If we ask the question ‘what feeds the nine?’ in relation to our solar system, we see that the Sun feeds the nine planets with energy. The Sun is the 10th body at the centre of our solar system. The 10 feeds the 9. In some ancient cultures, 10 was held as the sacred number which should not be written down. It was therefore often written as two lots of 5. This indicates that far back in antiquity, our ancestors had a profound understanding of the nature of the interconnected order of the Universe and the role numbers play in that cosmic order.

Due to our tendency towards the externalisation of perception, we have intellectualised over the years that the symbol ; must therefore refer to the physical Sun, which we see with our physical eyes, and so we have continued to look outside into this physical reality for the answers to our spirituality. We know this is an error because we know that spirit resides within. Also, because as physicists will tell us, everything comes from within not from without. The natural flow of Creation works from in to out and it is the ether/spirit/fire, which animates matter - from within. The symbol ;, the ten, the sun/fire/spirit is the 99.999% of who and what we are.  This symbol ; has, therefore, always been a symbolic representation of the inner Sun, our inner Sun, our fire within, the inner flame, the Spirit, the energy source, which supports all life.

It is no coincidence that both the ten and the sun/fire/spirit are symbolically represented as being one and the same. Numerologically speaking, the vibration of the inner Ten which creates everything is the Spirit, Ether, the inner sun and the inner fire, which creates life and animates matter and animates all the other numbers (vibrations of matter), so we can experience the physical reality we have created.

Ten, being the Source of all there IS, the Oneness of Everything must, therefore, be represented in the physical aspect of creation in order for it to experience itself. After all, what exists outside of us is merely a reflection of what lies within. Ten/spirit must be represented somewhere within physical reality, otherwise there would be no physical reality at all. And it is. All we need to do is to stop looking up and out into the stars and the heavens for a moment and look down. Look down at our hands and what do we see? Ten fingers. If we look further down we see ten toes. Realise we are the TEN, we are the ;. We have always been the ;  SPIRIT/TEN. We have just forgotten that’s all.

Your attempt to trivalise this message is simply telling the world that each of you have chosen Predator reality over Human reality.
