Scared to Sacred: How to Fall in Love with 13

Uh-oh, it's Friday the 13th! Superstition was terrific as a Stevie Wonder song, but it's not so great as a life pattern.

A society steeped in superstition and a materialistic value system will find it easy to assign anxiety to anything that threatens the status quo. Thirteen is actually is the number of movement, of change — a wild card — and that can be very scary. But it's our lost connection with the Divine in everyday life that gives rise to such distress. Divorced from our origins, terrified of our own power, we profane the sacred: thirteen becomes unlucky, evil, a curse; symbolic scapegoat of all we're afraid to embrace.

When we can take the thirteenth step, however, we're on the first step of the Stairway to Heaven. READ THE REST!

Well, what can be more scary than making a real change and stepping into unknown? I have been living in an apartment numbered 13, that was not scary. All growing needs changes and being open for more. That is also facing the fears that we have. But that can't be "won by fighting with it", then it just grows bigger. I rather needs to be understood, so that we can make the new decision. The feeling is the parameter, but we have also created this feeling. We can make a shift from polarity to oneness and then we will feel the love again. Even it it is unknown or just forgotten. We already are, we just need to remember. So it is a game too.
Thank you!
