Then again, in a literal sense they might just be hidden from our view.
The most fundamental element for physical life on Earth is water. Water is mysterious in the way it manifests as rain from the air, from the heavens. It holds secrets, splashing from crevices in rocks after having travelled through the underworld. It is the most creative and yet the most destructive element on the planet, it is unreliable and it is unstable. This is water and its number is 22.
Number 22 describes the energy of everything that is, everything that was and what is yet to be, the invisible made manifest.
The letters of the word 'water' add up to 22. (5+1+2+5+9). Water is all conquering. Its only real enemy is fire. Fire has the capacity to seemingly conquer water when it troubles it (boils) and causes it to disappear (evaporate). But water always reincarnates, returns and quenches any fire it determines to. Water comes from heaven (the sky) and the abodes of the gods (mountains). It moves unsullied through the underworld and whispers its secrets through glens and meadows. But when it shouts...its anger has no bounds. The religion of man swirls within the story of water.
It is because of water that life exists on earth and it will more than likely be because of water that it will end.
Much more than is usual, water will considerably influence the passage of this year, 2002.
Of course there will still be events and issues regarding the other 3 elements of fire, earth and air, but none can or will dominate water. Water is the child of its aging parents air (oxygen) and fire (hydrogen). As mankind rapes its mother (Earth) and despoils her daughter (earth), water will avenge. For earth is the daughter of water. It is water that creates her fertility.
We baptise with water to quell the fire, which represents Satan, whose domain exists within the belly of the earth. For we know that only water can triumph over fire. We bless with water and we cry with water. In the Christian symbolic myth of Lazarus' resurrection Jesus drew on the power of water, water that had overcome fire, to help resurrect Lazarus. Jesus wept. (John 11: 35) Water seeped from the son (sun). In other words he beseeched God. The power of darkness was overcome-the rock was moved from the cave and Lazarus appeared.
The fish lives in water, Jesus (the fish) lives in God (the water). He walked upon the waters, borne by God (who also moved upon the waters) as the sun dances across the deep and he asked his disciples to catch fish -to dip into the realm of God. The prize? -Knowledge of all that is because water with its ability to go everywhere holds all of the memories of time. Water is the greatest library in the world and I feel with this there is a strong symbolic or codified connection to the conflagration story of the ancient library at Alexandria. (Perhaps someone will chase that one up.)
Unfortunately the conditions we have created in today's world through greed, intolerance, dogma, thoughtlessness, inhumanity, and superficiality has conjured a karmic debt that may be about to be called in. It is not carved in stone and I do not know the mind of God, but common sense and a miniscule of thought is stirring many people to question where humanity is headed. Balance must be restored, and it will be-we just don't know when.
But I can say that the energy of this next year (2002) - which we have created - has the potential to wreak an unbearable havoc. The time may be galloping towards us like 4 white horses to breach the sea walls of humanity's perverted nonchalance. Make no mistake violence begets violence. So-called Christians and Jews and Moslems et al who defy God's edict of "Vengeance is Mine" and presume by their wars on terrorism and jihads and other despicably cruel ravages to be God, will receive from God all that he promises. And all those who support such actions are supporting people like Bush and Blair and Sharon and Saddam (who by their actions presume to be gods) in short, these followers are denying His command, 'Thou Shalt Have No other gods but me!' They are false Gods, with false agendas intent on evil and destruction.
22. The number of the circle, a major cycle is completed. It represents the All and the nothing, wisdom and stupidity, kindness and cruelty, Great Projects, Great Plans, Great accomplishments, the Great Destroyer, the Great Architect, the Master Builder none necessarily great in the sense of worthwhile. 22 is neutral and depends upon intent, what went before influencing what is to be done. Great in this sense can be both negative and positive, but both have huge impact.
Good and lovely things will occur because there are still good and caring people in the world, who deserve reward. It is unfortunate that they have to live in the same one as the evildoers but there is a reason it is that way. Balance. Great opportunities exist for diplomacy. 22 accentuates the 2 to the power of 11. Even long-standing adversaries can find a common ground when the need exists and pray god it exists right now.
The destructive potential of this year is massive, but only because we have allowed dark forces to control our world. The tide is turning ever so slightly. More people are becoming conscious of global iniquities and doing what they can to expose and overcome them. Will it be too little too late? Has the human experiment had its day?
Disasters this year will involve water. Ships, vehicles carrying liquids, oil platforms, pipelines, bridges, air crashes into water. Snow, ice, and drought (because drought is a water issue) will be contributing factors to many disasters. Floods will be big news too. I won't be going near Venice, Holland and similar such places this year.
I won't be surprised if bin Laden is found aboard a ship, that's if they ever catch him, or even want to.
Monarchy's and other dynasties will experience major shake-ups-we might even see a new bum on the Windsor Throne.
Relationships of all kinds will break down.
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, cyclones, tornadoes, floods, mudslides, avalanches, tidal waves are all very likely.
Major building collapses will occur. Dams and reservoirs look particularly vulnerable.
The Law is much associated with 22, so expect some heavy-duty legal issues and cases this year.
Any diseases born by water or associated with water will be big issues this year.
The world will be unstable. War on a large scale looks almost inevitable.
I detest all evil; from child abuse (paedophilia) to child abuse (global commerce) to child abuse (bombing and state sanctioned deprivation) and I will do my best to expose it. I love this indescribably beautiful world we have so fortunately been loaned. But people who deal in weapons do not think the same way. The bomb crater caused by the good guy is causing just as much mayhem as the bomb crater blasted by the bad guy.
The armament industry is one of the most sickening, disgusting inventions ever produced by humans. Someone thought up the idea of making a landmine to look like a butterfly and was payed for that. So-called ordinary people deal in the shares of these firms and their satellites, and profit from their obscene trade. Does the little child, eyes bright, smiling and inquisitive enchanted by the beauty of a butterfly deserve to be blown to smithereens? People who invest in and deal with armaments think so. Governments around the world think its just dandy, a Christian thing to do. Bush must think its ok because he actively encourages landmines, this Born-again-Christian, this self-confessed caring guy.
Could someone who supports these things, please explain to me why they can be sickened by the murder of some kids but feel nothing for the maiming, starving and annihilation of others? Because I don't get it. And I cannot understand how so many people can support horrendous terror campaigns by their servants and then encourage more of the same because someone killed their people - because someone killed their people - because someone killed their people - because someone killed their people and on and on.
If the world's population can manage to radically change its ways then truly great things are possible. We can begin to rejuvenate this planet and nurture it to become the paradise we surely all want it to be. It all begins with the individual, a flap of a butterfly's wing. So many people live the 'but there's nothing we can do about it' illusion, give up, most probably don't even begin. It's too hard for them to help create a better world for their children. The world's peoples only appear to be disenfranchised, the rest of its inhabitants are disenfranchised. We have the power to individually stand up and do our bit. We have a choice.
NOTES
Excellent pointers towards likely events in a following year are revealed by what occurs in the final week of the year, say 24th to 31st December.
Much of what is described is foretold in the Christian book, Revelations. Very apt that is too; Revelations, full of numerology has 22 chapters.
Other energies, which attune to, and compiment the 22, are 2, 4 and 7 (base numbers). They will have a very significant year as well.
Now available the most accurate numerology (and more) available today.
