New goings on at Esoterica!

We have done some reconfiguring of our front webpage, and have re-added PayPal buttons to be used to pay for classes and events to help streamline signing up for these special activities. In consideration for the tough economics times, and knowing that not everyone has money at any given time, but that they would like the opportunity to help keep Esoterica open and fully functioning (me too!) - we have introduced the Angel Page - and folks can donate (no set amount - it is as the Spirit moves you) and get their name up on the Angel page as a special friend of Esoterica. We also have the sign-up like for the Esoterica Announcements through Yahoo - where we post ad, sale info, class info and updates, Special Event info, etc. Sign up to be sure you are getting information on a time basis - or better yet, Make Esoterica you Home Page!!!

Help us not only survive these times, but to help bring even MORE to all of you and our community.

Hugs and Blessings, Lilly Edens

BASIC NUMEROLOGY CLASS 6 Dec 2008 - Saturday

2 - 4pm $55 prepay - - $75 at the door

BASIC NUMEROLOGY CLASS Throughout history, (or at least since Pythagoras), numbers have had meanings. Humans learned to make symbols for AMOUNTS before they made abstract symbols for THINGS. Note the early cave paintings. A drawing of a deer meant deer. But the little dots (or lines) next to the deer picture told HOW MANY deer there were! In time, numbers had significance beyond just AMOUNTS. When the later abstract symbols - letters - were created, it was associated with a number. Much of modern numerology is a matter of translating letters, (of your name, for example), back into its corresponding number - and then learning the meaning of that number. So your birth date can have a hidden meaning. Your name. Your new company's name. Your lover, your children, your pets or email name. You can very often find fascinating connections!

Beyond this Pythagorean view of the meanings beyind numbers is also an explanation of the Lo Shu Square. A simple Chinese system of arranging numbers to examine their relationships and meanings. It LOOKS like our familiar western tic tac toe chart where you place each number according to a pattern. It's a quick and simple 'reading' that you can do on the back of a business card or a restaurant paper napkin to fascinate your dinner companions.

For those who work with the Tarot, remember that each card has numbers on them. If you understand the meanings of the numbers, you greatly expand the information available from each card! It's a very useful bit of knowledge. AND, best of all, numerology is all about the SINGLE DIGIT numbers. So you only have to learn - primarily - about the numerals ONE thru NINE! NOT difficult - and fun - and fascinating! A two hour class will enable you to give a short - but fun - numerological reading for friends that they'll find entertaining and often strangely insightful!

TWO hour class on Saturday 6 December. A 50 page set of preprinted notes is included, so you don't have to diligently scribble during class! Just sit back and allow the information to soak into your mind.
