Roceal Super Geek Posts: 158 From: That place, you know, with the thing Registered: Aug 2001	posted December 31, 2001 11:10 The number of hours in a day 2*12 (of which 12 is a perfect number) 2 + 4 = 6 and 2, 4, 6 is the first part of the sequence of even numbers 2: Cooperation, adaptability, consideration of others, partnering, mediating. 4: A foundation, order, service, struggle against limits, steady growth. (http://www.astrology-numerology.com/num-keywords.html) Hexagram #24 of the I Ching Fu symbolizes turning back toward something or returning, maybe to the safety and comfort of one's home or village. Tall watch tower with a neat roof. Footprints leading to and fro. Call to market? Or, the alarm? What Google, the modern oracle, says about twenty-four It looks to be an auspicious year. (P.S. In case you haven't picked up the hint, today is my 24th birthday) -ARJ/Roceal IP: Logged

greycat Super Geek Posts: 182 From: Registered: Oct 2001	posted January 02, 2002 05:42 6 is a perfect number (equals the sum of its divisors other than itself) but 12 is not. The divisors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12. 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 = 16. The second perfect number is 28 (1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 = 28). The third one is 496, then 8128, then they get really big. IP: Logged

(around South Florida) Registered: Jan 2001	posted January 02, 2002 22:45 It's with some irony that I notice Roceal's new incarnation has 130 posts, and I have 153. Considering as how I registered a year ago, and Roceal was reincarnated in August, she'll pass me in a week. Just a little lame numerology... I'm sure Roceal will hit SuperBlabermouth again in no time --bd IP: Logged

Not particularly, but I do find the verses that go with the particular hexagrams to be very interesting philosophical/interpretive exercises. IP: Logged
