Greetings everyone,
A very interesting thread. I have been involved in the occult for decades and am also a musician of course. Over the course of 30 some odd (and I do mean odd) years I have compiled a fat lil' notebook of strange esoteric information.
Being that Mr. Steve is nothing less than a reincarnated Muse and Adept from the Egyptian Waters of Nun . . .
I have wondered about his relation with these 'occult' concepts, afterall, he certainly surrounds himself with plenty symbols or possibly sigils.
Now that you know I am insane, I was wondering if there is a topic / board where discussions of this stuff is happening?
*Oh and Steven Siro Vai's number in Gematria is 126 as is also Darkness, the Day Demon of December, a name of God, the word hospitality and horse (bad horsie I don't know).

126 = 1+2+6=9
Nine is the Hermit of the Tarot and represents Saturn as the keeper of the gate
Zodiac: Virgin
Tree of life: From Chesed to Tiphareth
Element: Earth
Number: 9 as the number going back into itself (3 x 3)
The Hermit represents retirement from the outside world, introversion into the inner self, listening to the inner voice and caring for the inner self. He requires retreat from any 'high life' and loud company, and stands for a time of self-reflection and self-realization.
For most people, the silent loneliness of the Hermit appears unattractive, but behind the Hermit is the wisdom of the High Priestess. You cannot listen to your inner voices while having a party!

Oh, I see, sorry I was using the Gematria values in relation to Steve's full name.Matwey wrote:Calculate Steve's birthday. And I guess you know what 10 means.SIRIUSB wrote:How do you arrive at 10?
9 is what you can actually get from 666.
LOL . . .

Gematria or gimatria (Hebrew: גימטריה, gēmaṭriyā) is a system of assigning numerical value to a word or phrase.Matwey wrote:And so you can see how wrong it is.SIRIUSB wrote:Oh, I see, sorry I was using the Gematria values in relation to Steve's full name.

Actually no, I don't

Using his birth date is a form of Numerology and is very iffy at best.
The whole point of gematria is to prove that Bible is plain truth, word by word. However, it is also known that it has been altered.SIRIUSB wrote:Gematria or gimatria (Hebrew: גימטריה, gēmaṭriyā) is a system of assigning numerical value to a word or phrase.

Numerology in its turn is plain simple and hard to argue with.
It all depends on how people prefer to fool themselves, no matter which way gives more precision.

Gematria extends beyond Abrahamic beliefs and into the mysticism of the Qabalah and Hermetics, but I do dig the fact that Numerology goes back to ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.Matwey wrote:The whole point of gematria is to prove that Bible is plain truth, word by word.

Either way this array of ciphers(0-9) goes back to the moment of creation of this Universe.SIRIUSB wrote:Gematria extends beyond Abrahamic beliefs and into the mysticism of the Qabalah and Hermetics, but I do dig the fact that Numerology goes back to ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.

Could you elaborate on that (unless this is not the place to do so)?Matwey wrote:Either way this array of ciphers(0-9) goes back to the moment of creation of this Universe.SIRIUSB wrote:Gematria extends beyond Abrahamic beliefs and into the mysticism of the Qabalah and Hermetics, but I do dig the fact that Numerology goes back to ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.
Since you are interested in numbers, you can see that numbers are in every thing and everywhere. And it can be freely represented by numbers based on this universal 0-9 array and its derivatives, and this is necessary and in the same time sufficient.
Other than that, you should probably quit your occult practices in case that is black magic, then open your eyes and mind and see for yourself.
