Properties of the number 22

Symbolism

• Represents the movement, the infinity.

• Symbol of the manifestation of the being in its diversity and its history.

• Represent the creation, which is the manifestation of the 21, according to R. Allendy. It is amongst other things the sigificance of the "principle of differentiation, 2, being added to the initial differentiation of the Cosmos 20 to subdivide the parts and to generate, by this means, the complex mechanism of the nature - 2 + 2 = 4. (...) With 22, we see the play of the opposite particular initiative - 22 = 11 x 2 -, to balance in the natural mechanism".

• Symbolizes the end of a cycle, and for the man, the end of the obligatory reincarnations on the earth.

Bible

• The 22 chapters of the Revelation of John, totaling 405 verses. This current distribution in 22 chapters originates from Stephen Langton, used since the 13th century, as for all the remainder of the New Testament. Let us note that the Revelation book has also on the whole 405 numbers written in their ordinal or cardinal form: 136 cardinal numbers greater than 1, 59 ordinal numbers greater than 1, 193 times the number 1 in the cardinal form and 17 times the number 1 in the ordinal form.

• Before to die, Jesus exclaimed "Eli Eli lama sabactani" which is the beginning of the psalm 22.

• The alphabetical psalms of which the poetries (Ps 111 and 112), stanzas (Ps 37 and 119) or verses (Ps 145), are indicated by each of the twenty-two Hebraic letters.

• It is the number of letters of the alphabet that we find in the Pentateuch.

• The chronology of the Patriarchs, from Adam to Jacob, includes 22 names.

• The duration of the reign of Jeroboam was twenty-two years. (1 K 14,20)

General

• The 22 elements by which God created the world.

• At his Ascension, by twenty-two times Jesus blesses the creation.

• The Word of God is at the 22th level of conscience. The cosmic conscience would subdivide indeed into 24 dimensional or spiritual levels. The maximal conscience level, the 24th, would be attributable only to the God-Father and the 23th level would be considered as being an energy protective area surrounding the level 24. The 22th level of conscience would be also that of the antique Elohim also named the 24 Ancients.

• Twenty-two is the number of biblical books of the Old Testament - Hebrews and Protestants. This number is obtained by counting for only one book the twelve minor prophets, as well as the Judges, the Kings, Ezra, the Chronicles (each one being generally divided into two books). It is also necessary to integrate Ruth with the Judges and the Lamentations with Jeremiah. And it is thanks to this last restriction that we obtain finally 22 instead of 24. Flavius Joseph (Against Apion, I, 8, 1st s.) is the first one to have proposed a distribution in 22 books.

• The Mezuzah contains fifteen verses of the last book the Old Testament, the Deuteronomy, VI, 4-9 and XI, 13-21, for a total of 170 words, always written in 22 lines. This small roll is inserted in a tube of wood or metal and is attached to the superior right side on the frame of a door, according to the commandment of the Bible: "And you will write them on the frame of the door of your house" .

• The 22 chapters of the Vendidad, book of the Avesta, written by Zarathustra.

• The 22 prayers ("Yeshts") of the "Khorda-Avesta".

• The Chronos god was surrounded by 22 main assistants and 22 secondary, according to the Phoenician Sanchoniaton.

• For the Muslives, the Koran is the recording of the oral revelation authorized by the grace of God to the Prophet of Islam during almost 22 years, in the beginning of the seventh century of the Christian era - from 610 to 632.

• According to S. Doucet and J.-P. Larosee, the man is composed twenty-two evolutionary bodies gathered in four categories: subtle body, energy body, galactic body and temporal body. Each one of these 22 bodies is formed of 1296 "partitions" that they call circumferences, vibrating each one at a precise frequency. This number 1296 is called "Energizing number", since it is the product of 12 (Cosmic number) and 108 (Universal number). By multiplying 22 by 1296, they obtain the total number of 28512 circumferences composing the 22 evolutionary bodies of the man, that is according to them the number of the man and also that of Infinite Energy.

• Several old alphabets had twenty-two letters: Chaldean, Sabean, Roman, Copt and Hebraic. The letters of the Hebraic alphabet are divided into three mother letters (Aleph, Mem, Shin), seven double letters (Beth, Guimel, Daleth, Kaph, Phe, Resh, Tau) twelve simple letters (He, Waw, Zain, Heth, Teth, Yod, Lamed, Nun, Samekh, Ayin, Tzade, Qoph).

• According to saint Yves of Alveydre, the primitive alphabet of all the humanity, at the period of "Ram" (adam alphabet or "Watan"), would have comprised 22 signs.

• Salemi points out that the Hebrew Candelabra includes 22 chalices, 22 apples and 22 flowers by counting the point superior of the axis.

• "From the twenty-two great Masters that counted the "Templiers Order" since its creation to its term, seven lost the life in combats; five died of their wounds, one of voluntary fast, having fallen to hands of infidels. Finally, James Molay had to be burnt alive under Philip the Bel, but the Order was dissolved when this crime occurred. It is therefore on the whole thirteen great Masters in function who paid of their existence the honor to command the soldiers of Christ." (John Carpentier)

• The 22 cards of the Tarot - 22 mysteries major.

• The Cosmos would shelter 22 Super-Universe.

• The totality of mystical knowledge is contained in the symbolic of the first twenty-two numbers, according to Bambaras.

• The initiation of Pythagoras with the Egyptian priests lasted 22 years.

• The twenty-two channels linking the ten "Sephiroth" between them in the "sephirotic Tree" of the Cabal.

• According to some mediumnic revelations, it would exist 22 main stars where all the entities will pass to achieve the complete cycle of their evolution.

• Twenty-two is the number of writable regular polygons in an Euclidiean circle: 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180, 360. These are twenty-two of the twenty-four dividers of 360, the two first, 1 and 2, not defining polygons.

• Length of the cubit in number of fingers, for Bambaras, which corresponds to the totality of the categories of the creation: this cubit from Bambaras represents therefore the universe.

• Number of total stars of which is composed the Little Bear. However, only seven of them are visible to the naked eye.

• 22 divided by 7 gives the number "pi", which represents the mysterious and approximate ratio of the perimeter of a circle to its diameter.

• The head of the man is constituted of 22 bones: 8 for the cranium and 14 for the face.

• Anniversary of marriage: weddings of ebony.

Gematria

• The shout of alert "22!" was used by the typographers warning thus the arrival of the chief of workshop. The number is obtained by addition of the numerical value of each letter of the French word "chef" (chief) according to their position in the Latin alphabet: C=3, H=8, E=5 and F=6.

Occurrence

• The number 22 is used 13 times in the Bible.

• The number 400 is used 22 times in the Bible.

I was told that I was supposed to be born on 12/25, but the doctor didn't want to miss family time so it was decided to induce early(3days) on the 22nd. All this is just the cherry on top of my life experiences, which all point to me possibly being the x on the biblical treasure map, so to speak.

searched my master number 22

by Catalin - 1/20/22 9:59 AM

I've searched for the real meaning of 22 because I know im number 22 from a young age, as I learnt about numerology ,around 10 years ago, i was not creating but i had an artistic side.I had numbers guiding me through shyncronicity. Few years later at the edge of agony I remembered I had a bigger purpose. And at this moment i dedicated my life to drawing and creating life in between the shades. You can check what i do everyday ,my main focus in this life , insta @catalin.popa.art. Synchronicity blessed this moment to find this page honestly.

The Honorable George Washington was born 2/22/1732, "290" years ago.
(290 x 7 = 2030) indicating 2030; Joe Biden's Electoral votes were 290

It will be 300 years in 2032 since George's birth in 1732; with a parallel with the fact that he had 300 slaves. Another strange parallel is, when Slaveowners Got 'Reparations': Lincoln signed a bill in 1862 that paid up to $300 for every enslaved person freed by Tera W. Hunter in The New York...

2/22/2222, is "490" years after George Washington's birth in 1732; I call it the year of light; the Lord's yard stick. It has been"222" years since his death from Dec/1799 in Dec/2021. In Hebrew, the "Chariot" "Rekeb" equals 222 (2021 - 1799 = 222). Something about 21 in Creation in relation to 22, this year.

22s in movies... and everywhere else!

by Metakythera - 3/10/20 11:59 PM

I found this thread after searching for "22 numerotropes" which was a really great Yahoo group for discussing everything 22. Sadly its gone, but maybe someone here will start a new one on Facebook or something similar. I'll join! As a frequent commenter on the yahoo site, it's clear that despite years and years of investigation there are still no clear answers. I share the opinions of many in this thread with occurrences everywhere... and I still can't decide whether its an omen, a guide or dire warning. As we can't include links, I'd like to invite you all to check out my videos on youtube. Search for "twenty twos in movies" or Metakythera. In addition to including more than 200 examples, I've also dived into many of the ancient symbolic roots as well as modern secret society applications. I think you'll be fascinated and I eagerly await your critiques! Thanks for reading!

622 922

by Roger - 5/20/10 9:05 AM

I am with all of you. I have been seeing my DOB 622 for the past 20 years. Half of the other times 922 and sometimes 722. Sometimes they appear more frequent and sometimes not. I believe they appear more when I am on the right track and appear less when I am being bad. I have even been seeing them duplicate times on the same seen like 622 622 or a sandwich 6226. I cant believe it took me 20 years to search this.... But feels good to know I am not crazy although I feel like Ive been in two different realities for some time now.


I believe I started seeing these numbers when I came across a UFO in my driveway October 10 1990. I felt like it was there to see me. It let me get close to it but took over like lightning when I got about 10 yards from it. After that I woke up every morning at 6:22 for a long period of time months or maybe a year or more straight.


Well we should all put out thinking caps on over the next couple years to piece this all together and figure out what we must do. ... more...

Same here, seems like it becomes most intense after strife in my life. Car crash, OBE in my 20's. Nearly left my wife 15 years ago, turned upside down, boom Spiritual awakening renewed. Now with no apparent reasons she just walked out on me. WHAM! I'm in the middle of it again, so intense, so many signs it's hard to interpret. And yes, everyone wants a piece of what I have, strangers in a store and especially the ladies (much younger than me). Just very odd, I'm just "chillin" and letting it happen. There is a direction to all of this just don't know why. Hey, is anyone else getting a high pitched ringing in their ears too? It seems it happens when it's quiet around me, especially when I go to sleep. Something is "downloading" inside of me and it is positive. Just have to wait and see I guess, just not sure of anything any more, the illusion is STRONG but apparent.

Hello so
I'm surfing the web for what I don't know and about 12 times the number 22 comes across ok so now I am reading about 622. That leads me to read people's post and though more highly intelligent then me but somehow I follow its almost like each one of you are me if that makes any sense expect I scare people they say I talk to much and @ the same time ask me what I mean lol so therefore I am alone. I'm completely numb and filled with confuseing I have never been involved in to number and there meanings but I think I was ment to find this. Can someone expiln to me this 8 22 82 I always felt I was here to save someone so I try and try to save people from themselves,I never give up, I feel for people even when they don't deserve it, I rather laugh then cry.I have forgiven people who have done unspeakable things to me. Help?? Please.

Today is the 22nd of August 2021. Just another day but it has prompted me to research some more for the significance since 22 has been an enigma ever since it started to make itself known and noticed more. Below a a reply from Karla I would closely agree that is has to do with the Kabbalah and also agree what is written here about the ten sephiroth channels and the complete cycle of evolution. The Malkuth path I read is where people turn vegetarian too and personally true for me because although it is taking longer, for instance you don’t want to eat meat anymore but sometimes you have to eat what you have to eat but if you had choices then you wouldn’t chose it because gradually it will begin to make you physically sick and must give it up forever. Maybe adopt the halal way of eating meat that is by blessing. I believe 22 to be a guide and/or sign to a path you have been on or just entering.

Roger! I'm 24 myself and I'm just now beginning to search for this number stuff, so I know how you feel when you say it took you 20 years to find it.

> "I don't know about you guys but I have been through some serious craziness in my life, damn near schizophrenia like things."

Me too!!! Schizophrenia-like is exactly how I'd describe it. Especially over the past few years, from 2019 to 2020, have been the most chaotic and painful years of my life.

What you say about feeling like you're being spiritually tested as a 22, and having enormous ups and downs and also an enormous urge to search for spirituality - perfect description again. I have this deep desire to learn about what my existence really is, what it's all for, what comes next, and to ascend, whatever that really means! Feeling like there's gotta be something more and mysterious and alien than all this!! I don't think I've ever seen a UFO, but I believe.

22 IS EVERYWHERE111

by Sabrina - 4/03/15 9:20 PM

Oh. My. God. I found people who see 22 everywhere they go!!! It's not happening to me at this moment in time, but before Thanksgiving of 2014, I've been seeing it plenty. Not just seeing it, but... You know what I mean. Here are some examples:
stepbrother's bday = 10/22/99
2014 parent teacher conferences = 10/22/14
teacher uses 22 a lot in problems
the day i flew out to see family = 11/22/14
catching the clock randomly at 22
shuffled through my songs and on the 22nd song, it was a song i deeply connected to in that moment
AND HERES THE SUPER CRAZY PART
I found a random pair of dice, and thought to myself, "if this lands on 2 and 2... im gonna... idk what im gonna do". so i roll the dice, and GUESS WHAT!!!!!!!!!! IT'S 2 AND 2!!!! now... what are the chances of that people?!?!?!?!?!

please feel free to comment on this. your input would be nice :)

The chances I think are 1 in 36. Some coincidences are merely coincidences and nothing more. The mind likes to see connections whether or not we divine some deeper meaning in all of that requires faith or sufficiency of other sorts. Data. For example if you rolled those dice again 36 times... how many times do you come up with double 2's? How about if you rolled the dice 360? Or 3600 times? I get it though. It can seem magical or divine sometimes in that moment when by chance things seem to connect in just the way that supports the mysterious.

The real meaning of 22

by Truepremise - 5/07/20 8:30 PM

22S = The System Construct
Living Archetype: The Negotiator
Color: Bleached Bone White

a. Substance for Auto-Signal-Predeliction [Good, Bad, Moderate, Null]
b. Shape for Auto-Sense Mechanism [Sight, Smell, Sound, Stroke]
c. Structure for Auto-Strategy Setting [Fun, Fizzle, Fight, Flight]
d. Signals for Auto-Search Protocol [Equilibrium, Pressure, Proprioception, Chemical]

So basically it means the variety of material things, their shape, their pattern, & how they express themselves as symbols or signs for our soul to read. Basically every sense.

Quote from third century theologian Origin on number 22

by Anonymous - 12/30/18 10:11 PM

"In the order of numbers, each single one contains a certain force and power over things. Of this power and force the Creator of the Universe made use, in some instances to give origin to the Universe itself, in others to express the nature of each thing as it appears to us. It follows, then, that, one must observe and draw out on the base of the Gospel these aspects, belonging to the numbers themselves. And in truth it ought to be not ignored that the books of the bible itself, as the Jews reported the, are, not without a reason, twenty-two and therefore equal to the number of the Hebrew elements. Since in fact, twenty-two letters seem to be the introduction to wisdom and knowledge of the World".

I have been seeing 9/22 which is my bday for a d cade. I'm up into thousands of unique sightings. The. Last one I saw was an episode of South Park. The one where the boys become detectives and as they were talking to the main detective in his office his calendar was said at September and the last day was the 22nd It was completely starting to freak me out until I realized that Rosh Hashanah in the year 2017 falls on the 21st and 22nd and on the 23rd the Revelation 12 signs in the heavens happens. I always expected the rapture to happen on the last Trump and the last day of Rosh Hashanah is called the day of the last Trump, The day no one knows the day or the hour and also depicts the wedding customs of the Jewish people so I think rapture is coming on the 22nd of this year or thereabouts
