“You cannot build a dream on a foundation of sand. To weather the test of storms, it must be cemented in the heart with uncompromising conviction.”
― T.F. Hodge, From Within I Rise: Spiritual Triumph over Death and Conscious Encounters with "The Divine Presence"
“Do you wish to be great? Then begin by being. Do you desire to construct a vast and lofty fabric? Think first about the foundations of humility. The higher your structure is to be, the deeper must be its foundation.” — Saint Augustine
"Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall," (Proverbs 16:18 NIV)
This is an 16/27 Week - 4/11 Month - 7 Year
16 is a number that signifies loss of control, spirit falling into materialization, testing of man’s faith & practice against God’s laws, the Refiner’s fire, hubris, the fall, the eye with which man looks outward vs. the eye with which man looks inward to see himself, strong vs. weak foundation, sudden unpleasant shifts that change everything, etc…
4 is a number that represents mankind, Earth, & the material world. It is indicative of self-discipline and the application of spiritual and universal laws to effect refinement, structure, stability, security, order to chaos, and the greater good.
11 is a number that signifies two individual elements and the creative tension between polarities. The ability to perceive unadulterated facts without emotional judgements or attachments. A call or opportunity to move beyond one’s ego-centric existence into a higher realm….beyond the profane into the holy. For the one who is ready to dissolve one’s self in pursuit of complete union with the Divine Mind, it marks the path or portal to initiation. On a more mundane level, it encourages one to base their actions and reactions on “just the facts”.
7 is a number of completions and movement. It also expresses the interconnectivity of God in man. The year 2023 promises to be a year full of excitement and intense challenges. It holds the potential for significant breakthroughs & liberation, or devastating failures & oppression. The determining factor will be the ability of the people to wake up to the awareness of their own divinity and power and to the importance of their connectedness to the world around them.
Fun Fact: The 16th week of 2023 begins on the 16th of April and ends on the 22nd. Twenty-two reduces to 4 (2+2) and corresponds with April. Sixteen can be reduced to 7 (1+6=7) and added to 4, which equals 11. This is a 4 month of a 7 year, which makes this an 11//4 month. The numbers cannot be more clear. Get your house in order!
