Why do we fear number Thirteen?
We always believed that number Thirteen was the number of death and in that we were right, except that it does not represent death in an ordinary way. Death is change. When we are born in this life, we die on the other level of existence. When we marry, we die as an individual entity to be reborn as a couple. When the unknown artist is finally recognized, he dies from one day to the other, to live again as a renowned personage. Change is simultaneously death and birth.
"The deathly connotation of number Thirteen was brought up as fear because most of the people respond to its lower aspect: That of immersion of carnal desires and the incorporation into mat-ter. Then, death appears through the destruction and degeneration of the body. Some people respond to the positive aspect of number Thirteen that implicates a complete satisfaction through regeneration and use of the fantastic powers of this number in view of creating and leaving something of value to this World.
"There are no halfway measures with this number. It contains within itself a great power ena-bling one to attain the echelon of spiritual ascension; it also contains an equivalent potential that can lead to total destruction. It is all or nothing.
"Number Thirteen is indicative of change, of transformation.
"We have false ideas about number Thirteen. With this number, we can expect changes that will bring an end to conditions that are no longer useful in our evolutionary path. Every idea must be altered, and crystallized ones destroyed. It is only through the death of our present circum-stances that we can be freed before opening the door to progress. Old ideas must be chased away, to liberate the place for new and better ones.
"Change is the basis for all terrestrial manifestation. It is only in change that we will sail to a fertile land where a new style of life is possible. When we let the past go its way, we direct our-selves towards new changes that give value to the best that life has to offer.
"We find many interesting things in number thirteen's symbolism. First, death: It will represent reproduction and birth, not necessarily in this World but a rebirth of the Consciousness towards higher levels. It is the time of Christ: The way of those who want to live the Christic way.
"Number Thirteen is a sacred number as are all its multiples. It is the number of the initiate, of he who transmutes the powers of his thought. There were twelve apostles and Jesus was their leader: Thirteen people; there are twelve signs in the "conventional" Zodiac". The thirteenth constellation is Pegasus, which will reign for a thousand years.
"Number Thirteen is also represented in the dimensions of the great pyramids of Egypt. The power of life does not die; it transforms self. Number Thirteen is formed by two figures, One and Three. In esoteric language, number One represents the male principle, the yang. It is the pio-neer who looks and hunts for experiences that will give it its proper identity. It wants to discover its own faculties and its own values. It is in constant evolution. Number One is the true "I AM" of humanity.
Number Three combines the qualities of "One" and "Two". It is a fascinating and diversified vi-bration showing self-expression. The "three" awakens to the needs for social activities: It is the need to communicate. Its creative imagination permits that all things are possible". (JAVANE, Faith, BUNKER, Dusty, Numerology and the divine triangle,)
If we reunite these two figures, we get the number where we started from: Thirteen, the "I AM" who looks for individuality, its own values, who can express and create its environment. When it creates, it transforms self.
So, number Thirteen is not to be feared as people think, but applauded. For it permits an in-depth transformation of the being we are trying, individually, to become: "I am that I am".
