July 23rd
Okay, so call me a crackpot clinging to crumbs for hope or inspiration from the stars but:

July 23rd. The Downing Street memo. (minutes)

After watching the re-play of the Conyers forum on C-Span last night, the date of the memo, July 23rd came into my mind.

Coincedence? Sure, why not. I had a thing for the number 23rd for many years..many years ago. (I wasn't as politically motivated back then) The whole Robert Wilson thing.

I don't know what it means (except of course I am a wacko) but still I think it's means something.

Anyway..maybe it means light from above is helping us bring Bushco. down and this is a clue.

Oh and googling (I yahoo actually) Robert Wilson, I got Robert "douchebag for liberty" Novak's July column about Joseph Wilson.

HA! Anyway..this does connect to the stars I believe..as above so below..it is all connected in some ways I don't think we can even begin to fathom.

1. Hmm
Apparently the number twenty-three is a sign that a higher being (whether it's the messiah or someone connected to him) is helping with events. If this number popped out at you or you are drawn to it then I do think it's for some purpose. Has there been anything else that has popped out to you with this number and political events? I know the people who are behind Bush like the number eleven which is another powerful number. According to the page you gave the IChing number twenty-three means "to break apart." This one really popped out at me.

specifically July 23 --- it's my birthday

on edit: it's all connected....

every June around the soltise a group of us get together for what we call the "space fest". We gather at Shenandoah National Park, Big Meadow for a few days of fun, food and talking about all things metaphysical or not...

we also do a couple of rituals that have evolved over the years. but one of the things that stood out this year was how often we heard the phrase "..it's all connected..." by non-spacefest people.

our server at the lodge one night used that phrase, when we were unloading our truck to set up the camp site we got into a friendly chat with some other people about how we do this every year with friends, they mentioned they just bumped into some people they haven't seen in years who do the same and then said "I guess it's all connected..."

while standing at a cash register at a store - a cashier and another customer were overheard saying "...it's all connected..."

we mentioned this to our friends, and they too remarked that they have heard the phrase an unusually number of times in the past couple of days from the most unlikely sources...

and now today - your post says the same. is the universe trying to tell us something? If so, then I guess :evilgrin: it's all connected :evilgrin:

p.s. next year's space fest is scheduled for JUNE 23

3. hey its my birthday too!
unfortunately, its also the anniversary of my brother's death.

always wondered why he died on my bday, if it had some sort of meaning.

For whatever reason, I like July, despite the above, the 23rd, my name, and I also see 11:11 alll the time.

perhaps it is all connected.

4. June 23 is the Eve of Midsummer
in many European countries. The Estonians, Latvians and Lithuanians, who still retain many elements of pre-Christian paganism because they were the last countries in Europe to be forcibly Christianized, have huge bonfires and parties on June 23. It's been Christianized as St. John's Eve, (June 24 being the feast of St. John the Baptist) but it's called Leedo or Jaani in Estonian and Ligo in Latvian.

Latvian women wear flower wreaths in their hair, while the men wear huge neck collars of oak branches and leaves. They sing and dance all night and stay up to watch the sun rise, chanting "Ligo, ligo, ligo," which means move or sway. They build bonfires and leap over the flames. Estonians do much the same but I've never seen the men wear oak collars or chant "Ligo."

The Latvians and Lithuanians (whose customs I don't know) do this in honor of Saule, their sun goddess.

May Saule bless the world with revealed truth and enlightenment this Leedo!
