TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

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.
