WM020: Various Artists - Numerology
released 27 september 2005
According to the Britannica Concise Encyclopedia "modern numerology
attaches a series of digits to an inquirer's name and uses these,
along with the date of birth, to reveal the person's true nature and
prospects (using a method analogous to that of the Greek and Hebrew
alphabets in which each letter also represented a number)." It also
says that "numerology is based on the assertion by Pythagoras that
all things can be expressed in numerical terms, because they are
ultimately reducible to numbers." In his mystery school Pythagoras
taught his students that nothing could exist without number, he
believed that the foundation for almost all of philosophy,
mathematics, astronomy, music and creative accomplishment could not
exist without the divine organization of progression expressed in
numbers. The scientific believe that numerology explains everything
runs all the wayto Kepler, when the universal working assumption
still was that God left his telephone number (as it were) in the
workings of the heavens.
Well, you will probably ask, where does that leave us? Firmly in the
past, I suppose, but still, only gather 2, 3, 4 and 5 together, and
the mumbo-jumbo artists of the world will construct a theory, a
conspiracy, or a piece of magic, that's where this compilation comes
in: enjoy!
