THIRTEEN, NUMBER

A symbol signifying completeness or infinity. It is a "holy number," and cannot be divided.

"As the number of the lunar months, thirteen is the symbol of the Woman, and denotes the Soul and her reflection of God-the solar number twelve being that of the Spirit. The two numbers in combination form the perfect year of that dual humanity which above is made in the image of God-the true Christian Year,' wherein the two-the inner and the outer, Spirit and Matter-are as one. Thirteen then represents that full union of man with God wherein Christ becomes Christ." - The Perfect Way, p. 247.
