Symbolism is the mother of all languages and when it's understood that all symbols are but keys, extensions of a great law and truth, one begins to develop the vision which enables them to penetrate the veil. Through contemplation and meditation upon a mystical symbol or word, a sort of cosmic attunement is established and experienced by the inner faculties.
The circle, revered as sacred within almost all cultures is one of the most ancient, universal symbols representing or relating to God as observed the world over. The circle has also long been a symbol of infinity, wholeness, unity, completion, eternity and perfection.
A circle has 360 degrees. (3 + 6 + 0 = 9). 3 is the only number that equals the sum of all preceding numbers (0 + 1 + 2 = 3). When 3 is added to itself (3+3=6) you get 6, the first perfect number. Perfect numbers are rare and of the perfect numbers recognized by the ancient Greeks: 6 – 28 – 496 – 8,128 and 33,550,336, it’s interesting to note that beyond 6, the sums all equal 10 which represents the circle in numerology. The number 10 also reduces down to the number 1 (1+0=1), and like the circle, represents both a beginning and an end.
The circle is also associated with the “void”, representing the space before anything existed. Out of this void emerged the yin and yang, the feminine and masculine, rotating together to begin the formation of our universe.
Or as it manifests in Christianity, God is the alpha and the omega (the beginning and the end). On the 6th day God created animals and man, Adam and Eve, masculine and feminine. Eve was fashioned from Adams rib (3+3=6). 6 is the atomic number for carbon, a primary component not just of man but of all known life. Christ is the light and Lucifer is the Prince of darkness. Christ is a part of the trinity, 3. While Lucifer (Light-Bringer) was in antiquity a name for Venus before it was absorbed into Christianity as a name for the devil, often poetically personified as heralding the dawn. The number 6 is the symbol of Venus and 666 is the number and mark of the beast. “Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666” -Revelation 13:18. And just as 333 and 666 both equal 9, Christ and Lucifer are both “the morning star”.
3 and 6, Yin and Yang, Christ and Satan, light and dark, good and evil, they are all equally necessary parts of the whole. The Universe moves to its own rhythm and is in perfect balance and harmony. This is why when we take it upon ourselves to right perceived wrongs, or fight “evil”, or other equally futile pursuits, we are going against the natural flow and order of existence and will inevitably experience suffering as a result.
