the thing about me is that i notice little things. if they seem meaningful i remember them. sometimes i file them away instinctively, even if i do not understand their importance. one day in a bookstore in arcata i picked up a dictionary of symbols. i happened to find one symbol that combined my initials. it had a particular meaning. that was what got me started. the whole thing can be simplified down to one letter-- teth. this serpent/wheel is the crux of all the other significations, which are essentially expansions on the theme of the wheel and its periphery. for today, i'll keep it brief, just to give you an idea of what my files look like:
Kabbalah: mouth, serpent, head פטר
(note the middle letter is cross/wheel tet)
gematria 17x17=289=19=10=1
- first occurrence of any word value of 289 in the torah gen 8:11 taraph. . .(the olive leave plucked by the dove after the flood)
-first occurrence of peh teth rosh in sequence=5th occurrence of a word value 289= exodus 13:2 strongs #h6363 firstling, first born, opener of the womb.
- english word aperture is related to this root.
-isosephia in the new testament shows the last occurrence of any word value 289 is Rev 10:2 'bibliaridion' tiny scroll.
in a sense a scroll is a wheel. if a scroll is sealed we see the significance of it in relation to the first opener. ancient tombs were covered with stones that rolled away (like a stone disc within a groove). peh (a mouth) may speak a blessing or a curse. teth is a serpent who has a forked tongue. in kabbalah rosh/resh means head or beginning, as speech or word is the announcement or beginning of an action.
the liturgical calendar divides the torah into readings for each sabbath. the parshas (portions) are often abbreviated by the first phrase in the portion. i was born on 10 Kislev in a particular year when the parsha vaitzei; the title phase of which totals 289. this is the part where jacob lifts a stone and finds a ladder to heaven. . .
