6

There is a significant amount of information about the number 6.

It is the human number aka mankind.

Vav is the Hebrew letter representing six.

Shaped like a hook, it is the 'vav' of connection. Mostly translated as 'and'.

Example: Bereshit (Genesis) 1:1, God created the heavens and (vav) the earth.
Kinda ties together body, mind, spirit.

There is also the six winged angel that can connect to god.

The six pointed star aka the house of David. That star has much more of a significance re male and female and more.

Then there is the cube. It takes up space. It is six sided. It is a constant.

Six means completion, as is the universe and north, south, east, west, above and below.

Yet, there is much to rectify in that creation.

There is the six day creation story. Man was created on the sixth day.

Of course there is the famoous 666 attributed to antichrist in Revelation.

It can refer to how Lucifer was made lord of the earth thus trying to hijack creation and rewrite it in a new matrix.

We had a doozy of a time chatting about that and Eschatology in general when i was studying for the Lutheran Ministry.

The number is affirmed by repeating it three times. It invokes nothing unless somebody wanted to invoke what I call bad juju.

There is hidden power in numbers according to some. But numbers are just that, as are colors shapes and any number of things.

All can be used for weal or woe.

Bet some of you are wondering if I've gone off the deep end.

Nope.

I feel it's important to mention there is a spiritual aspect to life.

Again, I'm not asking anyone to agree or disagree.

In the time I knew Patrick McGoohan, we never talked of the Prisoner, let alone Secret Agent, so there was no talk of 6 and/or its meaning for the character of Number 6.

I think Pat liked to leave that up to whatever conclusions each person came to.

Wikipedia has a comprehensive list of meanings for 6 including mathematical, scientific, spiritual meanings as well as use in art and film etc.

And most importantly, we come back to Freedom.

The fact is I can express what I wish here. I have covered a pretty eclectic patchwork.

To me that's life and I wouldn't have it any other way -s-.

And though I disagree with some about many things, I will indeed defend their right to see things as they wish.

Here's a bit of a postscript:

I started this article some time ago, as seen by the publishing date.
Since then, we have had a move by feds to arrest and stop a group of very fundamental Christian militia folks.

They can believe whatever they wish and do as they wish, unless it is detrimental to others.

I've heard they might be trying to Fort Sumter with the feds. If so, they should stop.

We must keep the high ground and be ready to defend ourselves if attacked.

They should consider that fomenting a fight could be considered murder.

If, on the other hand, it is the beginning of some culling of Freedom lovers, then heaven help us all.

Then numbers will have a very basic meaning.
