    not in love

    it includes the combination of three and four.

    We can go on and on about three. In all the manifestations of 3 we find the condition of dynamic balance. The configuration of three always suggests movement from one aspect to the other, while remaining fixed. This phenomena can be seen, and often is described as the essense of life itself or soul.

    The number four is linked in several cultures, in the maps we create and the way we parcel land in the western world, to the 4 directions, or 'Winds'. North, South, East, and West. The directions contain an elemental life beyond their identity on a compass. While the understanding or interpretation of the qualities associated with each direction change slightly from one culture or place to another fundemental pattern exists.

    The directions contain qualities of :

    >youth/spring/beginning/daylight/East

    >maiden/young man/summer/fertility/warmth/South

    >adult/mature/fall/setting sun/hibernation/introspection/West

    >elder/wisdom/winter/perseverence/strength/clarity/North

    animals, gods and godesses, stories, songs...all the things of culture travel on the wheel in which the four directions turn.

    The combination of 3 and 4 to make seven is so very lucky because it combines all that fills our soul with all we find in life. This is what I finally decided one day. For me, it works.
