23
23 (on 3.4.'07)
I picked up on "23" several years ago, when it would seem to appear out of nowhere in media reports of odd (or bad) events, and chalked it up to "The unconscious likes the number 23", without taking it further. Then there was that fab-50's expression "23 skidoo" (could be earlier), which was the only link I could think of, then ...little suspecting ....some goddam spiralic cosmic key linking everyone including Dragon 420's through some snuff flick videodrome website in nowbound Rochester, NY would open up.
On the metaphysics of numerology
I, like most hard-core scientific method philosophs, rejected token-connections in communication as having significance on principle ; until coming to realize A. communication takes place not just through the text of signs, but through the tokens as well; and B. there is a common consciousness process base for linking tokens to text (hyp.: neural gating in the hippocampus, following Wilson). These provide the foundations for a new study of signs, not dealt with by any other science, but common to humanity and apriori with respect to its intellect. Something in rhythmic natural processes follows definite formal progressions, such as the convergence of radii-to-circumference ratios to phi in spirals expanding through fibonaci rectangles. If contents of consciousness individually marked by signs expressing or articulating them are linked, as groups, THROUGH the signs (as if persons were appendages to communication-Units (agendas), rather than the other way around. So while it is correct and necessary to appreciate scientific explanations of thing, where possible, under the great theories for physical, chemical, biological change spaned by the 20th century, there are phenomena related to meaning-communication links which it (the sciences) do not, and cannot in principle, comprehend, because they (scientists) start from where they (the apriori transcendental forms, whatefver they are) leave off. (Scientists cannot know themselves as totalities through science.A Critique of Pure Consciousness, desparately needed now, would provide a metaphysics for distinguishing correct and incorrect use of numerals in (an) "-ology". But the significance of the number 10 for human digits (fingers and toes, 5 on a 'side') is cause enough to pause the Pythgagoras in you, if you've got one.
