Eso-researchers may be aware of the so-called “Master Numbers” – 11, 22, 33, etc. Certain numbers, sets of numbers and dates have special meaning to occultists, astrologers and numerologists. 9/11 was full of such synchronicities. Many also attribute symbolic significance to the terrorist attack in London on July 7, 2005 - which incidentally killed 52 people and injured 700. Remember, numerology adds digits together to find a single digit outcome, except in the case of the Master Numbers. Thus July 25 would also be a 7-7-7 this year, and that is the date of the day out of time for those who know about the 13 moon calendar. July 7 is the 188^th day of the year, with 177 days remaining.

On July 7 in history, the Battle of Hubbardton began in Vermont in 1777. United States begins its first military draft in 1863. President William McKinley annexed Hawaii as a territory in 1898. Construction commenced on the Hoover Dam on this date in 1930. In Roswell, New Mexico in 1947, an alleged ‘flying disc’ crashed and was recovered by the Air Force. In 1954, Elvis Presley made his radio debut. President Eisenhower signed the Alaska statehood bill in 1954, and President Reagan nominated Judge Sandra Day O’Connor to the Supreme Court in 1981. In 1985, German tennis star Boris Becker won Wimbledon at the age of 17 years, 7 months. Lt. Col. Oliver North began his public testimony at the Iran-Contra hearing in 1987. Famous birthdays include composer Gustav Mahler in 1860, baseball star Satchel Paige in 1906, science fiction writer Robert Heinlein in 1907, designer Pierre Cardin in 1922, and Beatle Ringo Starr in 1940. Deaths include Pope Benedict XI in 1304, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1930, former Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones in 1969, actress Veronica Lake in 1973, and Pink Floyd musician Syd Barrett in 2006.

For some Christians, triple sevens (777) “numerically symbolize Yahweh, the Father of Yeshua the Messiah” – though interestingly, some debate this. There is a Christian call to prayer today. There's even a minister (jokingly) suggesting the Rapture will happen today. These numbers figure prominently in the Kabbalah as well. 777 and other Qabalistic writings is a collection of papers written by Aleister Crowley. Not surprising, there is also talk of a harmonic shift today. A yoga instructor in Los Angeles is offering a gong meditation course tonight at 7 PM; he says, “The numerology on this day, 7-7-07, is phenomenal. Seven represents the aura. Three sevens equals 21 (2+1=3). Three represents the positive mind. Add the 7PM hour and you have 4 (the heart) sevens which equals 28 (2+8=10).”

Because so many people consider seven to be a lucky number, and it also happens to fall on a Saturday this year, many people have planned their weddings for this date. Las Vegas will certainly be busy this weekend. The new 7 wonders of the world will be announced today in Portugal. The Live Earth benefit concerts are today. The “Drop sneakers, not bombs” campaign to benefit Invisible Children launches today. Also, YouTubers may know about the meetings today in NYC in Washington Square Park under the arch, in Berlin at the Brandenburg Gate, and perhaps in Miami and Australia too; check this out for more.

Interesting that Earth is at its aphelion at exactly 00 hrs UT; also, near-Earth object 2006 JY26 makes its fly-by today. NASA had planned on sending their new Dawn spacecraft into space today, ostensibly to explore two newly-discovered dwarf planets, Ceres, to which it expects to arrive in 2011, and Vesta, in 2015. It has since been delayed a few days. Some believe NASA missions, among other things, are sometimes synchronized with Masonic symbolism. Who knows what else they will see out there; perhaps Eris, which some believe is Planet X? Here is a list of astronomic events for July 7 through history; here and here is more about the number seven.

Those who might have been wary of 6/6/6 last year, or don't consider seven to be 'lucky' either, may wait for 8/8/8 and 9/9/9 coming up soon.
