Day 7 August 5/6
How Does Nine Numerology Work?
Self-Guided Ritual created by Helen Hye-Sook Hwang and Wendy Stiver
A. What is Nine Numerology?
“Nine Numerology is an occult language of the Creatrix and is manifest in the physical world as a sonic phenomenon behind the pattern of lifeforms. It is revelatory and salvific. The physical property of numerology has been kept esoteric. Where do we see the physical manifestation of numerology? We see it everywhere and all the time. In fact, our very existence is the very proof of the physical manifestation of numerology. Crossing the dualistic boundaries between the spiritual and the mundane, between the abstract and the physical, and the organic and the inorganic, Nine Numerology goes beyond the anthropocentric thealogy of the Nine Mago Creatrix. It helps us grasp the complex and magical operation of the universe or the Way of the Nin Mago Creatrix. Furthermore, it explains the mytho-cultural-epistemological provenance of the nine symbolism that is widely found in East Asia and beyond.”

D. Closing: Build your triad cogwheel
Many of us are in Diaspora, isolated in our own timespaces. This is a collective effort to help us who seek to reach out to a wider circle for various purposes. We, Mago Work Volunteers, suggest that each of us build/recognize one’s own triad cogwheel with our two wings (daughters/sisters).
How do we do that? You, as the root, invite your two partners/companions as your two wings to form the triad of three cogwheels (the root and the two wings) and provide support for your wings, while navigating your own cogwheel. This is not a closed circle but a self-transcending unit of life’s networks. This is how nature is self-organized and networked on all levels from the microscopic to the macroscopic. In the sense that anyone can be the root of your own cogwheel(s), this is a symbiotic model of life’s organizations. We all are weavers and creators to our own capacities. There is no center or periphery for all is the center and the periphery at the same time.
Your triad cogwheel is meant to be joined by other triad cogwheels. We go by the cosmogonic principle of Nine Numerology. You and the two other roots will make the pattern of nine cogwheels made of three roots and six wings. Do you see the pattern of Nine Numerology working here? The three roots represent the Triad Creatrix and the nine cogwheels the Nine Mago Creatrix (Nine Goddesses).
For more info on the Nine Move Movement, please see here.
MPC is here to host your triad cogwheels. As the first step, one may do the following:
- Seek your vision and establish your cause (we assume that it is about Goddess feminism, activism and spirituality broadly defined).
- Know to whom you are providing support for your vision and cause. Find out who your two wings are.
- Consolidate your own networks amongst yourselves.
- Announce your triad cogwheel or introduce your members in MPC as a post. Please state what your cogwheel is about or aims at. Give a title phrase (Triad Cogwheel) Your theme by Your name in your post. Others will recognize you and may find you as the root or wing.
Where are we going from here? You, the mother of your own triad cogwheel, may find or be found by the mother or wings of other triads. We have confidence that this will take place because that is how nature is self-organized. However, this is an organic process, which requires time and care. In a timely manner, you, among the three mothers, will know who will have capacities to support the two wing triad cogwheels. That will eventually make your network the nine alliance.
We know that nature does not work like a man-made machine. Nature don’t repeat the same thing. In that sense, we are room for novelty and ecstasy. All possibilities are open. What is evident is we are weaving horizontally and vertically at the same time. One may say, “the only limitation is our imagination.”
By doing this, we will naturally form the alliance of 81 clan members. This can fluctuate and stay in the process perennially. We don’t have to force ourselves to an exact form of 81 clan members. 81 members are naturally formed and all we have to do is to recognize them.
Mago blessings to all in WE!
