The number 13
 
Everywhere I go I see this number, been happening for as long as I can remember, if I turn on the tele and there is a ruby match the player with his back to the camera is number 13, if a bus goes past it's number 13 and so on. It's become a bit of a joke :original: I've also noticed that if it's not 13 it's 31.

I did have a message on another forum telling me all about it but I've lost it. :sad:
It was saying that 13 is not the bad number that people think, i.e unlucky for some but that it's a positive number. Anyone out there know about it??

Anyone else have a number that follows them?

I've read for many years that it represents the Goddess.

ON FRIDAY, October 13, 1307, hundreds of Knights Templar, the wealthy and secretive order of fighting monks, were rounded up, tortured and massacred for alleged crimes against Christianity “too horrible to contemplate”.


" The story, set in 1314, details how the Knights Templar, a group of warrior monks sworn to protect the Christian Holy Land, were captured and tortured at the end of the Crusades. The round-up of the Knights Templar on Friday, Oct 13, 1307 is believed to be the origin of the superstition of “Friday the 13th.” "

Friday the 13th has been regarded as a day of deep misfortune ever since, but the Templars did not go quietly into history

BTW I recommand you to read Focault's pendulum by Umberto Eco is a great book and deals with the Templar history among many other subjects

Hey Swanny ! It's a good job you don't suffer from triskaidekaphobia,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triskaidekaphobia

or you'd be in a right old state 24/7.... :mfr_omg:

Triskaidekaphobia (from Greek tris meaning "3," kai meaning "and," and deka meaning "10") is fear of the number 13; it is a superstition and related to a specific fear of Friday the 13th, called paraskevidekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia.



Woah...some extra long words there. :original:


edit to say...just noticed my post number !!!

There also used to be the 13 month lunar calendar. Many rituals and Sabbats were linked around this calendar. It's interesting to see what is cycling by accessing these dates.

America is the worst for removing the number, no 13th floor etc. Surely there must be more to it than just superstition???

And imagine someone with a phobia of Friday 13th calling in sick and telling their boss...."can't come in today as I suffer from paraskevidekatriaphobia"

I think I've got a phobia of the word...paraskevidekatriaphobia...:shocked:
