Polarity is everywhere.
Light and dark, male and female, yin and yang
To understand a concept we must know its opposite brother,
Because how could we know one without knowing the other?
I know it is logic, but sometimes we give a meaning,
The sense and perspective that fits with our own world screening.
I’m puzzled today because I don’t know why,
Numerology decided that number four is a guy.
That’s right, four is considered a masculine number,
It represents strength and stability,
Discipline and loyalty.
Are they right?
I have frowned and thought that perhaps,
Their number 4’s definition is based on their own maps.
For in my world I have the 4 leafs clover,
That I have picked from fields over and over.
It represents hope, faith, love and good luck,
And you might even see a fairy if the clover’s in your pocket tucked.
So you see, anything can have different perspectives,
From different people, with different objectives.
I think we see the world through our different lenses,
What’s apparent to you, might challenge my senses.
So please to not judge what to you might not seem right,
Because nothing in this world is back or is white.
This is me, wearing a 4 leaf clover. When I was a child I was looking for fairies, nowadays I did it again with my little girl. What would this world be without magic…..

That four represents and stands for order is beyond question. Why people say it is masculine not clear. Different cultures ascribe masculine and feminine to numbers. The Chinese I Ching gives genders to the earth, the sky, water, and to everything – as part of the yin and yang of the dialectic you talk about. See my blog for a post or two about the Four in my March Through the Numbers section. I’ve raised the question a number of times on my blog about the sexes of all these words, and I still can’t figure it out.

I will check your blog! Yes, it’s puzzling , isn’t it? Because everybody relates to each of these through their own experiences and not in a generic way .

I wrote about it in my last post about month of May. Why is May a girl’s name? April and June too?

The ancient art of numerology has a lot of catching up to do! You’re so beautiful, I’d be apt to just go along with whatever you say – that makes me a 3! Easy Peasy!
