Today, most people associate numerology with crazy cults or wacked out fortune-tellers but thousands of years ago, it was studied by the Greek philosophers and only the most learned of scholars. Those wise people understood that numbers, like words, helped to reveal the natural truths and could be “instrumental”, pun intended, in solving our problems. Thus, math was born from this ancient study and today it plays a critical role in much of what we do, even our entertainment.
Can you stop your feet from tapping when you listen to the familiar beat of “Mr. Tambourine Man” or “Knockin on Heaven’s Door” by the great Bob Dylan? Do the memories flood your mind, bringing back the excitement of that first dance with that very special someone?
How about when you hear Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Sweet Home Alabama”; do you start singing along no matter where you are? If you moved away from the South, do you yearn to return, even if only for a visit?
When you are driving in your car and Jimmy Buffett’s “Margaritaville” starts to play on your radio; can you smell the ocean waves and feel the sand under your feet?
Music, it has literally been around us in one form or another since the beginning of time. It is our river of emotional memories. It can be used to creatively express a multitude of emotions from happiness, sadness, joy, sorrow, excitement, melancholy, and of course love. Even before adding lyrics to the melody, we can be mesmerized by the beat, tone, and intensity of the sounds, stealing away our current thoughts, replacing them with memories long forgotten. The harmony of the various notes when tied to our emotions can enhance the way we remember, memorialize, teach, praise, worship, and yes…even love or despise someone or something. Every unique rhythm can find a place in our mind causing us to remember long forgotten experiences.
Music does, has, and forever will play a very important role in the fabric of the life of mankind. So, isn’t it extremely interesting that all of the songs that I mentioned above and literally tens of thousands of others, have only two things in common; the music is composed of only three chords and has only three fundamental elements? It is no surprise that the most powerful number in numerology is the number three, meaning unified perfection.
For those of us who never studied music, it may be interesting to learn that there are seven tones that make up the tonic’s major music scale. The foundation of music is when a musician creates a score of music beginning with a single chord of notes taken from each the Tonic, Subdominant, and Dominant Scales. When combined and orchestrated into a song these notes become the Primary Triads. These chords when played produce tones that encompasses all seven tones on the Tonic’s Major Scale even though the chords themselves are made up of only three notes a piece.
If you have studied music, you will be able to attest that music is very mathematically structured and can be extremely complex; by its very nature it must include the three elements of music; it must be rhythmic, melodious, and harmonic. Proving once more that the Wisdom of Three controls the truth about this important form of communication. The very music we love finds its roots deeply embedded in the discernment of unified perfection. Only through divine intervention could a human being create masterpieces of empowerment using only three chords played in perfection and unified by three simple elements of the music we enjoy.
If this is my last post, I want all to know there was only one purpose for all that I have written; to have made a positive difference in the lives of others.
