9-9-09

I've seen a lot of things out there about today's date. I don't remember 9s being significant though. I mean in an omen kind of yikes, something big is coming, kind of way. A few years ago, we went through 6-6-06 - now, three 6s in a row I do remember from The Omen so I get the brouhaha over that line up - but no one went crazy for February 2, 2002 or March 3, 2003, or April 4, 2004 or May 5, 2005 (or maybe Mexico did) or July 7, 2007 or August 8, 2008. So why the big fuss over the 9s?

I do have a friend who is turning 29 today on 9-9-2009 and if you add up that series of numbers 9+9+2+9 it does equal 29 which also equals 11 (2+9) - numerology, if you're into that sort of thing, tells us that 11 is the guru number, the number of higher enlightenment. Again, what's with the fear, people?

Oh, and Happy 29th Birthday, Caroline Frost!
