• R. Allendy speaks about the curious arithmetical properties of the nine which gives it a very particular character because of the use of our decimal notation system. In another numerical notation system they would cease to exist: the difference between an unspecified number and the number formed by the inversion of its digits is always a multiple of 9 - example: between 26 and 62, the difference is 36, multiple of 9; the multiples of 9 are always composed of digits where the sum (once reduced) is equal to 9; the product 123456789 x 9 gives 9 times the digit 1 in the answer (1111111101). Concerning this last property, Elisabeth Haich mentiones the next calculations:

             0 x 9 + 1 = 1
             1 x 9 + 2 = 11
             12 x 9 + 3 = 111
             123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
             1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
             12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
             123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
             1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
             12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
             123456789 x 9 + 10 = 1111111111

September = 9

I'm researching a criminal case about a little girl who was murdered in the early morning hours of 9/15/93. Everything about the case screams sacrifice, but I can't find anything significant about this date. Can anyone decipher the significance of this date? Thank you.

The "devil" merely represents our lower consciousness or carnal mind.

Adding to the list of 9

by Love - 1/28/20 6:17 PM

In the Edgar Cayce readings/work, there is a fair amount of focus given to a past, pre history Egyptian cycle that Edgar's guidance stated was one of the most momentous periods/cycles that the world has ever known.

Apparently Edgar's Spirit, in the form of a Soul who incarnated with the name of Ra Ta then around this 10 500 B.C. time period, played a critical/central role in that cycle as a spiritual teacher and holistic healer type. Anyways, he became a leader/facilitator in that life as the high priest, and corrupt forces/elements did not like all the changes he was enacting, so they set him up in a Machiavellian like scheme/plot, which he ended up falling for.

He was banished from Egypt for 9 years by the Pharaoh. Originally permanently, but as Egypt came to be in dire straits, many called for his return due to his unusual psychic/intuitive abilities and skills at harmonious leadership. When he came back, aged and decrepit by all the stress he had been through, he went through almost a 7 year... more...

The Number 9

by Rick - 10/03/10 8:35 AM

Take the alphabet A=9 B=18 C=27 D=36 ETC.... Just keep adding 9 to each letter. Take each letter of your first name find the number add them all up and divide it by 9. Same with your middle name and then your last name. Creepy Hah....Add up But Don't divide them (you can but you'll see what I'm getting at) Jesus, Cross, Jewish, Lucifer, Gospel, Messiah, Muhammad, English, London, Satans, and Fruit.....Now what do you think???????? Possible accident????? Pretty exact science. What do you think? Are there more?? Now using this numbering system, Evil, Tree, Sex, Blood, and Son all equal 432. Strange????? Hades and Hell equal 333 together 666. God and Allah are 234. Z is also 234. I would like to know what you think about this.
Thanks

One more thing, your website title.. "riding the beast"
is that I reference to something like "bull riding"
its always puzzled me why grown men chose to try to ride a bull, the damn bull seems smarter than the men. now place a woman upon the bull and maybe she would get to ride a while. never try to go against the laws of nature, youll end up with something that has no soul , cloning ?? ok yet you cant create the very essence of a human, the very thing that satan is hoping to gain, that is the ultimate game now isn't it. who gets your soul.
that tells me that a persons soul is very very valuable, in numbers what number would you calculate it to be worth.. a number is not a dollar amount a number is just something used to keep the order of people places and things . if a person is deemed number 1 and another number 9 is one less valuable than the other, or are numbers then just something invented by man himself to give a greater value to one person, place or thing than he gives another. motivation? the... more...
