Sometimes, to provoke more indepth thoughts with something I'll see a number or a shape, or objects and I'll count them quickly and register it with this meaning full list.

0 - Nothing, Off
1 - Unity, Singularity, Consciousness, On
2 - Disassociate, Separation, Duality
3 - Truth  :fnord:
4 - The Bigger Picture
5 - Protection
6 - Life, Carbon
7 - Significance
8 - Infinity "Nothing ( 0 ), with a twist( 8 )", life and sun worshiping
9 - Down side up six (anti life), Fluorine, Evolution, War, Conspiracy

Some of it makes sense.

Is this some kind of numerology thing, or is it more like a synaesthesia thing?

Numerology maybe, I don't know what that really means.

Synaesthesia is when senses overlap, such as colors having a flavor or numbers having a personality, etc.

I don't know much about numerology except that it's about assigning other, non-numerical meaning to numbers.

I think I shall have to write a poem that uses "synaesthesia".

You sound like a candidate for kaballah.

I developed it about 8 months ago, maybe it's a bit like synaesthesia.

DO IT.

So, you'll see a "thing" find a way to count "things" on it, then use your system to think about it?


Isn't that a long-form version of the Law of Fives?

Yeah.

It sounds a bit like synaesthesia. I have it with scents, flavors, and colors. A good friend of mine has it with numbers, too... for her, each number has a personality and a life story.

I'm starting to talk about poetry in terms of flavor and texture now. :eek:

It reminds me of reading cards with "spots", playing cards, Marseilles Tarot, stuff like that. Fairly close to some of the conventional interpretations, but not exactly.

yeah, Tarot incorporates a lot of numerology.
