Significance of 47

[Guest Imranyusuf]

Is number 47 central in any way to the basic structure of the universe? Does this number has critical importance in the basis of the universe?

That really depends on who you ask and in what context.

 

 

The really significant number is 42.

[Royston]

If you mean this, which is all I could find...

then no, it has no significance.

 

Perhaps if you could elaborate a little on what lead you to ask the question.

[swansont]

In what base?

[insane_alien]

base 47 of course.

[Sisyphus]

47 is 42, corrected for inflation.

I think he is referring to the book "Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy" by "Douglas Adams" in which the number is the answer to "life the universe and everything".

You gotta give the supercomputer some credit for coming up with that, it took it 7 million years to come to that solution.

I was told years ago that the 'magic number' is 54. But the only logic that I can come up with to understand why this is, is because, 6x9=54. And every one knows how magic 69 is.

And every one knows how magic 69 is.

 

It's only magic untill you try to pull it off, then you find out it doesn't really work.

Either you or your girlfriend must have an enormous torso.

That would make it difficult.

 

Yee, canee change the laws of physics, Capt'n!

He is a physicist. He was probably trying it on his own.

Ohhh that's dirty. Honestly, though---what man HASN'T tried it on his own?

 

Either way---I'm not a fan of working upside down.

9 is the special number perhaps according to below

Don't know if it's actually plausible, numbers being 'alive'.

In numerology you add the first and last numbers of 47 (4+7) to get 11. You then add the first and last, until a single number appears, which in this case is (1+1) =2. That is the number of the binarius. It may be a trick from the dark side. It is better if it adds to 1, 3, 4,7. These are from the light side. The number 5 is connected to human-neutral. The number 6or sex has an inner polarization associated with male-female. The number eight is two zero or the tension of two female principles. The number 9, is symbolic of pregnancy or a state of gestation leading to another number.

 

The ancient mind doing math would also be thinking in terms of the meanings of the numbers, with certain calculations forbidden.

It is in perfect synch with the logic above that I am able to support my strong contention that it is unicorn farts which cause erections in leprechauns.

 

 

We are not always what we seem, and hardly ever what we dream.

Actually, 47 and 42 derive from the same philosophy, being that 7 represents the number of days that universe was created along with the creation of a devil, so that there was not only 1 God, but 2 to compete with in the attention of mankind to be. What's a person to think when encountered with the idea of God and the idea of a Devil at the same time? Yin/yang, oh man, those taoists are really on the same boat as everybody else. No wonder the all powerful buddhist government outlawed taoism after only 50 years. What's a person to think?

 

47, 42, Baptists, Kaballah, it's all astrology in the end. Everything cancels out everything else.

 

 

uh-oh

 

Starts singing "It takes two to make a thing go right ..."

The number 6 or sex has an inner polarization associated with male-female. The number 9, is symbolic of pregnancy or a state of gestation leading to another number.

 

Well, there ya go. I just knew 69 was magic, and now I have proof! Sex followed by pregnancy. Who'd of thought?

 

cheers.

If you do the numerology of 69 you get 6+9=15. Then you get 1+5=6. So 69 leads to 6 or sex. The ancient dating mind would have done his math and calculated this equation for the proper mating procedure. I am not saying this is a very scientific method but the empircal results worked.

 

Let us apply this ancient empirical number system to look at the religious significance of the number 666. The numerology begins 6+6+6=18. Then 1+8=9. The name number of the beast adds to 9. It is a gestation state. To get more information using the ancient system, one would have also used the letters of the alphabet and assign each letter a number a=1, b=2, etc. At j=10 this can either be used as 10 or 1+0=1. They will both reduce down to the same numbers. Then you add the letters/numbers of the first, middle and last names to get the sums. Then you apply the numerology to each name sum and see if all three end up looking like 666. It was not very scientific but an empircal correlation, used to help dispel speculations.

 

A challenging project would be to write a computer program that goes through a digital phone book, calculates the numerology of the names, and then outputs a list of possible combinations that can add to 666. This does not tell you anything but it does require some ingenuity. It will do nothing more than reduce billions of names down to ?. One may do this statistically using a sample batch to calculate the average ratio to see how close it actually is when compared to more rigorous hard numbers. One may be very surprised by these results.

 

The thing with name data, it is not randomly generated. The last name is set by tradition. But each set of parents then uses an unconscious hunch when chosing the first and sometimes middle names. The hunch may be nothing more than trying to use a unique name so the child is unique. Sometimes poor spelling makes a common name come out differently. Others try to use conventional naming so the child fits in. Others may chose only from the list of Saints to help the child go down the right path. Others pick names based on what they mean in ancient tradtion, in an attempt to bestow certain propensities onto their children. What you end up with is an irrational name data set that is not exactly random, but has a type of irrational order that may not be govened by the laws of conventional math.

 

In other words, if we flip coins in reality they come out half and half, with respect to head and tails, over a long period of time. But if we flip coins in our imagination, one can make it come out heads every time, such as within the fantasy of a long winning streak at the gambling tables. Naming children begins with all the hope for the future, when parents are under the infatuation of being new parents. They are not generating heads and tails in statisitical proportions but, they generate data under the imaginatary influence of a winning streak. The ancient believed, although there is no real statisitical order to this, it did have an order.

[Sisyphus]

Wow.

[insane_alien]

yes, because numerology has been proven accurate so many times...

[pioneer]

I am not saying numerology is valid only that it was one of the original numbers theories, where mathematics was applied to human behavior such as how the unconsciousness of naming a child had some type of meaningful correlation to the type of person that child would become.

 

Here is an interesting cooincidence. Hitler's last name was originally Hiedler. Over the years it was spelled Hiedler, Huetler, Huettler and Hitler, with Hitler being simply due to a typo by some clerk. If you do the numerology Hiedler=7, Huetler=8, Huettler=1 and Hitler=9. The ancient mind might say his life was one of four main transitions. The 7 may have reflected an early connection to old testament style religion, i.e., strict. The 8 is two female principles or maybe a connection between his mother and his feminine side. The 1 shows him becoming more separate and distinct. While the 9 showed a state of gestation from which would appear someone entirely new. The name number of Feuror=2. This is the binarius or devil he became. This is totally irrational and not scientific but one is not dealing with data that plays by the rules of simple statistics.

 

I just realized this is suppose to be about astromony not astrology, sorry.

[insane_alien]

yes, this is a science forum. you want to discuss pseudoscience, well, you should know by now where to post it.

[Realitycheck]

It's astrology. All forms of "divine" communication all add up to astrology. Become an atheist and you are cured.
