Every time we think about things in a new way, we are creating new neural pathways, which is the beginning of raising our consciousness. This attachment is brilliant – not only for raising our consciousness – but just to know about.
The attachment here (below) came to me today. And talk about an impressive piece of – well maybe trivia.
But I love it.
It’s a Power Point Slide show that I’ve put on my server so it’s safe. It should open up in most web browsers.
It demonstrates how numbers got their names – why 1 is called ONE, and 2 is called TWO and so on.
A must see – click on the following OriginofNumbers
And after having a look, please leave a comment and let me know what you think about it. You already know how I feel.

Hello Kashonia,
I could not get the file to open ( “in the wrong format” is what came onto the screen….
When I was a child, I remembered what turned out to be a substantial amount of western numerology….My parents apparently couldn’t handle a bunch of info about a lot of things that I would tell them, so when they said I was”crazy”, I decided they must be right BECAUSE, numbers had meanings and qualities and effects !! I never told a soul what I felt and thought about numbers ( so that no one else would call me crazy!), and only first read a numerology book at age 30, when I needed clarity about naming my second daughter…Everything I’d thought and felt as a child was described EXACTLY in that book…
Thanks for your good works!

What a shame that yopu can’t open the file. It’s in Power Point and so you would need a Power Point Reader, which you can download for free from the Microsoft site if you wanted to.
And also what a fascinating story about numbers and your childhood.
I never mind if people say that I’m crazy. At least that’s better than being boring.
I made up the name Kashonia based on numerology and officially changed it by deed poll all when I was in my late 20s.
Love

That was educational. For years, I have sometimes wondered how the numbers had gotten their names.
I also found what Robert Martin said about the number 5, to be very interesting.
This shows us how the numbers got their shape, but how did they get their “names?”
Hi Tim,
I guesss you might just be right.
So long as you look at it from an English language perspective it’s obvious.
Number one – has been designed to have just one angle
Number two – has been designed to have 2 angles. and so on.
But I assume that you are asking what the origin of the word one is, and the origin of two and so on.
Sorry I’m a philosopher not a linguist so I can’t answer that. But a Google search would probably find an answer.
Good point
Kashonia
