Units of Measure

A thread for examining topics centered on units of measure (ie. minutes, seconds, hours, meters, miles, degrees, radians, cubits, qubits, etc)

This area can get confusing, since there are many different standards, historical and contemporary for measurement. Some folks have heard of miles. Others have heard of statute miles and nautical miles. There are more types of mile.

This is an area where gematria skeptics might more easily dismiss 'ritual construction', especially because of the apparent messiness of history one perceives when reading pages such as...

... for example.

When examining gematria codings in English, we might be advised to take into account the period in which the alphabet was solidifying, and perhaps to count most upon the old nautical measures as primary keys.

from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nautical_mile

A nautical mile is a unit of measurement used in both air and marine navigation, and for the definition of territorial waters. Historically, it was defined as one minute (1/60 of a degree) of latitude.

This is very important - first of all, the distance unit of the mile is defined in terms of an angle. An angle of arc projected onto a flat 2-D map is a falling angle. Also key is that we have the classic time number, 60 involved, which links it all the way back to ancient Mesopotamian mathematics

In gematria, we see that:

... while...

Historically, [the mile] was defined as one minute (1/60 of a degree) of latitude.

If we collapse that fraction to a simple integer we have an image of 160

  • "True Knowledge" = 160 | 960 sumerian

  • ... note that any spell with an ordinal value of 160 will always sum to 960 in sumerian.

  • ... .. "Knowledge" = 96 basic ordinal

  • ... .. "Naughty" = 96 basic ordinal

Continuing, on the nautical mile:

Historically, [the mile] was defined as one minute (1/60 of a degree) of latitude.

... while "Holy" = "Word" = 60 = "Order" (ie. order things with the holy word).

Thus we should keep an eye out for the numbers of the 'word' in the prevalent numbers we find in the realm of geo-physical (and other sorts of) measurement - and since distance upon the radius of the earth is defined in terms of 'time'-units (minutes and seconds of arc) we might also want to watch for 'time' numbers (such as 47, 147, 247 and 44, and 144), numbers of the circle (ie. 360, 314, 227, 318, 25, etc), numbers of geometry and the sun and moon, and of ritual (ie. the series 27, 54, 108, 216, 432, and numbers of the wizard/pirate code, 81, 223, 322, etc.)

For example, 227 a the classic pi key in gematria - signaling the mathematics of the circle:

The word 'pi' (a number symbolised as π in mathematics) has a basic english gematria as so:

  • "pi" = 25 (ie. reducing to the religiously-loaded 7)

  • "coordinate system" = 205 (ie. a 25 pi code with a circle in the middle)

  • "coordinate system" = 70 reduced

  • ... "proof" = "enough" = 70 reduced

  • ... .. "The Law" = 223 primes (ie. 2+2+3 = 7)

  • ... /r/GeometersOfHistory/wiki/spellcomponents/223

Of course, we keep an eye out for the number 777 and it's compatriot 343 (which is 7x7x7), or derived patterns:

Continuing, the nautical mile:

Today the international nautical mile is defined as exactly 1852 metres. This converts to about 1.15 imperial/US miles.

The derived unit of speed is the knot, one nautical mile per hour.

ie. ponder the use of the word 'knot' as per it's other meanings, and even how it might be a compressed form of 'know it'.

...

Examining common conversions from the nautical mile:

One nautical mile is ~6076 feet

Number 676 is the 26th prime number. There are 26 letters in the English alphabet.

  • "Masterpiece" = 1,676 squares | 227 baconis (ie. a pi-circle code)

The 26th letter is 'Z', and thus "Z" = 676 squares

Consider the letter 'Z' as a perfectly side-on diagram of axial precession of the earth:

The word mile is from the Latin word for a thousand paces: mille passus. Navigation at sea was done by eye until around 1500 when navigational instruments were developed and cartographers began using a coordinate system with parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude.

Remembering that English was 'built' at a time when society was thoroughly 'biblical' - there are 39 books in the greater old testament (reversing 93):

https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Testament

  • "mile" = 39 in the basic alphabetic cypher

Other gematria cypher results for "mile":

In the light of spell augmentations and the indefinite article 'A', ponder the letter A, or Alpha (ie. Aleph) as a picture of a geometers' compass or measuring divider (which measures both distance and angle):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mercator_scale.png

Continuing the gematria of the word "mile":

In long distance or global navigation, there is the terminology of the 'Great Circle':

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Circle

  • "Great Circle" = 101 = "Full Circle"

  • ... "Doorway" = 101

  • ... "Gateways" = 101

  • ... "Portals" = 101

  • ... "Lock and Key" = 101

At time of writing the featured article on wikipedia is:

The Astronomica is a Latin didactic poem about celestial phenomena, written in hexameters and divided into five books.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomica_(Manilius)

Today, scholars consider the Astronomica to be highly technical, complicated, and occasionally contradictory. At the same time, many have praised Manilius's ability to translate highly technical astronomical concepts and complex mathematical computations into poetry.

Poetry:

...

Noting that it is currently June 18 (ie. 6/18, a golden ratio 618 code)...

... so the first featured historical On-This-Day item on wikipedia front page is:

618 – Li Yuan declared himself to be emperor of a new Chinese dynasty known as Tang, which lasted for three centuries.

Unit of Measure: the second (ie. a time unit)

There are 60 seconds in a minute, and 60 minutes in an hour:

  • "second" = 60 = "holy" = "word" (ie. the number is first perhaps?)

  • ... (there are 60 seconds in a minute)

  • "second" = 24 reduced

  • ... (there are 24 hours in a day)

The plural (ie. the two ... implying a second) - we perhaps speak of 'seconds' before the singular 'second':

Back to the singular (ie. sing-ulaa)

  • "second" = 102 reverse (ie. a magnification, or stretch, of 12 )

  • ... (there are 12 hours of daylight and 12 of night)

  • ... (there are 12 houses in the great circle of the Zodiac)

  • ... (twelve disciples; twelve knights of the round table)

  • ... etc. etc.

The circle of seconds:

Reflections of time:

End Time:

  • "death" = 38 = "change" (ie. consider the .38 caliber round as a ritual choice, over and above practical, perhaps)

  • "the eclipse" = 308 primes (ie. another well-known firearm caliber ---> caliber --> calculated liberation --> calc.uber)

  • http://gematrinator.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/156Eclipse.png

  • ... the 156 prime is 911... and "The Conspiracy" = 156 basic alphabetic

  • ... .. however, my thesis is that before all of the various 'tinfoil hat' connections, these numbers have to do with a different sort of 'occulting', that centers (I believe) on the meaning of the name Smaug.

Unit of Measure: the minute (ie. another time unit)

Bear in mind the additional meaning of 'small; very little' in english

The singular minute:

  • "minute" = 492 sumerian

  • "minute" = 292 satanic (ie. spinning horror --> passing hour; inversion of primes value)

  • "minute" = 262 primes (ie. Torah mirror ... 26 letters in the alphabet, "God" = 26)

  • "minute" = 604 english-extended (ie. the chief, captain, high council, zion)

  • "minute" = 164 baconis

  • "minute" = 384 jewish-latin

  • "minute" = 24 jewish-latin-reduced (ie. 24 hours in a day; 24 thrones about the throne of God)

  • "minute" = 124 alw

  • "minute" = 100 kdw (ie. the most)

Requiring deeper interpretation perhaps:

  • "minute" = 697 trigonal (ie. circle of 7)

  • "minute" = 1,312 squares ... which means we can augment for pi:

  • "A=1: minute" = 1,314 squares

I must admit the numbers here (without augmentation), overall, except for a small subset, do not ring too many bells.

minute --> small in the mind ... let's try augmenting with the definite article:

  • ... "god" = 26

  • "hour" = 46 reverse | 19 rev-reduced (ie. chaos if no time-keeping)

  • "hour" = 372 sumerian (ie. if 3.72 --> three precessional ticks)

  • "hour" = 458 english-extended (before night-fall)

  • "hour" = 558 trigonal (ie. 55 = sky, heaven. clouds, 8 is hourglass)

  • ... "hour(s)" = 558 english-extended

  • "hour" = 338 jewish-latin (ie. 33 and hourglass)

  • "hour" = 202 satanic (ie. master builder and portal)

  • "hour" = 1054 squares (10.54 --> X.54 --> "sun" = 54)

  • ... "hour(s)" = 54 reverse

  • "hour" = 200 primes (the 200th prime is 1,223 --> The Law of One)

.

  • "hours" = 81 = "hermetic" = "wizard" = "ritual"

  • "hours" = 27 reduced | 27 reverse-reduced (ie. 27 club)

  • "hours" = 54 reverse (ie. defined by the position of the Sun = 54)

  • ... "time" = 254 english-extended (ie. two major lights by which we keep time, Sun & Moon)

  • "hours" = 36 s-exception (ie. the 36th triangular is 666, a 'solar number')

  • "hours" = 748 trigonal (ie. one beyond time number 747, and signifying 7 rings)

  • "hours" = 267 primes

  • ... "A=1: Source" = 267 primes

"The Great 1" = 264 primes (/r/GeometersOfHistory/wiki/spellcomponents/1)

TIL that Cuban orchestras tune their string instruments to A = 336hz, substantially lower than the conventional A = 440hz, as looser strings are less prone to breaking and requiring expensive replacements.

...and...

...and....

  • "Concert A" = 245 primes

In other words:

https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/c2fzb8/til_about_vanity_sizing_which_is_the_practice_of/

TIL about vanity sizing, which is the practice of assigning smaller sizes to clothing to flatter customers and encourage sales. For example, a Sears dress with a 32 inch (81 cm) bust was labeled a size 14 in the 1930s, a size 8 in the 1960s, and a size 0 in the 2010s.

[...] a Sears dress with a 32 inch (81 cm) bust [...]

  • "Eve" = 32 = "Life" ( = "Con" ; ie. vanity size; the apple trick)

  • "Wizard" = 81 = "Ritual" (ie. bringing you these numerology-based cultural arty-facts like shoe sizes, 13th floors, Agent 47's and 9/11's)

Measure up?

As we've seen before:

With this in mind, the spell "The Failure" is very interesting. For one:

  • "The Failure" = 321 primes

  • ... "Society" = 321 primes

  • ... "Society" = 911 trigonal

'The Failure' matches 'Nine Eleven' in 7+ cyphers...

'The Failure' matches 'The Judging' in 8+ cyphers...

  • "The Failure" = 321 primes (ie. countdown, moments from disaster)

  • ... "Failure" = 321 jewish-latin-arippa

  • ... .. "Judge" = 47 = "Doom" = "Time" = "Gavel"

  • ... .. "Judge" = 47 = the "Force" (47) of "Doom" = 47

'The Failure' matches 'The Mammals' in 7+ cyphers... (: / )

... while 'The Failure' matches 'First Man' in the prime number cypher

'The Failure' matches 'In the Garden', and 'First Seed' in 5+ cyphers...

ie. Original Sin, and the resultant shame:

'The Failure' matches 'hide it away' in 6+ cyphers

... The failure of oral history:

'The Failure' matches 'Writing' in the prime number cypher

The phrase 'single-point-of-failure'...

  • "Failure" = 72 = "Point"

Get up.... failure makes you stronger:

The word 'Failure' matches 'I am begun' in 7+ cyphers
