Hi sue

Here's the definition of 23 quoted from Star Signs. I hope this helps;

23
The Royal Star of the Lion

This is a karmic reward number. 23 bestows not only a promise of success in personal and career endeavors, it guarantees help from superiors and protection from those in high places. It's a most fortunate number, and greatly blesses with abundant grace the person or entity represented by it. As always, the 23 must be considered along with other Single and Compound Key Numbers making up the full numerological analysis, which may not be quite so fortunate. But other numbers don't have much of a chance to bring about serious trouble when the Royal Star of the Lion is present during difficult times. No number can challenge the Lion's strength and win.

hello sue

here is more on 23 from Linda's Star Cards book:

According to the Ancients, this mystical number is one of karmic reward with a banquet full of treasures in store for the person who is blessed by it. The individual will be entertained at the impressive court of the Royal Star of the Lion, where baskets full of promises, and love await. Thy cup runneth over. Be assured that when the Lion reigns there is no other vibration strong enough to challenge him and win, for the strength of the majestic Lion king is unconquerable. Those foolish enough to challenge this wisest, most noble cat will soon cry out for mercy. He is a most noble ally. The Royal Star of the Lion brings the fruits of success with this regal blessing: Nothing and no one can resist this heavenly vibration.
The number 23 card reduces to the single number 5, and is ruled by the planet Mercury.


So, no.....no chaos.
23 is my birth number....is it yours as well? Is that why you were curious?

Just curious. (blame it on Mercury)

(More about the meaning of numbers)


Alphabet
E is the fifth letter of the alphabet, and also the most commonly used in the English language. W is the 23rd letter of the alphabet. Half of W is V, which is the roman numeral for 5. Once again, therefore, the inherent connection between 5 and 23 is proven. Relent ye skeptics!
Alphabet: The letter W
W is the 23 letter of this alphabet. The symbol for that letter is two points down and three points up.

It is the only letter in the English language to be renounced polysyllabically. Note also that it is a double(2)-u and thati t has three(3) syllables.

therefore our www is (23letter) (23letter)
(23letter) is like 666 in hebrew however in hebrew language this is 6+6+6 so
it is 18. 23-5 =18 thus fitting in with the law of fives also (number of the
beast connects to 23 and 5 and even the world wide web neat huh)

Multiply these two numbers and you get almost exactly 23.

(Terence McKenna thinks the Eschaton will Immanetize)
Other theories suggest the ice caps, having become wobbly from the gravitational pull exerted by the alignment of FIVE planets directly opposing the earth on 5-5-2005, will cause the crust of the earth to slip over the soggy innards, causing the ice caps to melt, and new ones to form. Of course, this will cause massive flooding, earthquakes, and general mayhem. All because the earth is slightly tilted, averaging about 23.5 degrees! (Mayan Calendar Tools)

(Refer to Graham Hancock's Fingerprints of the Gods for more background on this phenomenon. It ties in the Egyptians and other ancient civilizations, Atlantis, Osiris, star-charts, geological evidence, and hard physical evidence of the remnants of a lost, technologically superior pre-historic race.)

Note: Mayanists Linda Schele and David Freidel still report that the end date is December 23rd, 2012 rather than Dec. 21st (more info)
December 23, 679
The date that Dagobert II, a Merovingian King was murdered. Speculation, derived from the research of the highly controversial book entitled Holy Blood, Holy Grail, leads one to conclude this assassination was performed in connivance with the Catholic Church. The church leaders, unhappy with Dagobert's apparent policy of religious tolerance in his kingdom, located in the south of France, allegedly got him out of the way to best serve their own interests. A predecessor of Dagobert, Clovis, had an alliance with the Catholic church, so it is possible that church leaders saw Dagobert's actions as a betrayal of what was considered a long standing policy of pro-Catholic reforms.

Burrough's 23 Enigma
In the early '60's in Tangiers, William Burroughs knew a certain "Captain Clark" who ran a ferry from Tangiers to Spain. One day, Clark said to Burroughs that he'd been running the ferry 23 years without an accident. That very day the ferry sank, killing Clark and everyone aboard. In the evening, Burroughs was thinking about this when he turned on the radio. The first newscast headlined the crash of an airline plane on the New York-Miami route. The pilot was another Captain Clark and the flight was listed as Flight 23 (ala the line "Captain Clark welcomes you aboard.").

Symbolism & Myth


Buddha
2x2x3x3x3 or 2 to the power of 2 times 3 to the power of three = 108, the number of auspicious signs by which the Buddha is known.
Astrology
The axis of the Earth (which currently points vaguely at Polaris) describes a circle in the heavens (switching off 'pole stars' and sometimes going without) over a period of 23,000 years. Precision, as this motion is called, also accounts for talk of our entering the Age of Aquarius (we entered the age of Pisces around the era of the birth of the historical Jesus). The Sun will 'be in' each of the '12' Zodiac at Spring Solstice (each being an 'age') during this 23000 year cycle.
Astrology: Zodiac
The days on which the signs of the Zodiac begin/ and end are the 22nd and 23rd of every month.
Tarot
The trump cards, or the Major Arcana of the Tarot represent a cycle, or wheel. The cards are 22 in number, "beginning" with the fool and "ending" with the universe. But, as the standard musical scale of western music is an octave (seven notes (ABCDEFG) with the first repeated as the last (ABCDEFGA) to represent the progressive cycle of the musical scale), the 22 trumps, when arranged with the fool at the "beginning and end", actually form a cycle of 23.
Tarot
There is no 23rd card in the Major Arcana.
Tarot
2 is the number of balance, 3 is the number of synergy and 5 is the number of strife in the Tarot deck. Presumably, therefore, if things always changed, or if things never changed we would be all right, but when both happen, we experience troubling times.
Numerology
Two (2) and Three (3) are next to each other in our numbering system. (e.g. 1,2,3...)
Qabala
In the Qabalistic Tree of Life the 23rd path is associated with the Hanged Man Tarot Card. Aleister Crowley also states that this card represents the concept that the only way OUT is WITHIN!
Hebrew philosophy
In Hebrew esoteric philosophy there are 32 paths of Wisdom. 231 gates of Understanding of THE MOST HIGH as per the Holy Kabala.
Islamism
The Holy Prophet Muhammad for 23 years received and taught the wisdom of THE MOST HIGH, the making of the Holy Koran.
I Ching
The I Ching Hexagram 23 means "Break Apart". Telegrapher's use 23 as the code for "break the line".
Great Pyramid
Supposedly there are 2,300 stones comprising the Great Pyramid.

Ufo


Aliens
23 Annunaki, the number of the original advance team of "aliens" who aided in the seeding of life on this planet.
