30
Reduced form: 3
Numbers describe tendencies in a symbolic tradition. They cannot decide health, money, law, marriage or children.
About this number
The zero falls away and 3 remains, the same move that turned 10 into 1 and 20 into 2. Clement's comment on 3 through 30 concerns a first name, Charles, and describes a universal number that needs many interests at once. The table of keys treats the date itself and gives E flat major, a half step under the E of the 3rd.
Westcott's thirties are mostly ages and counts: Joseph before Pharaoh, David at the start of his reign, thirty pieces of silver. He also supplies a geometrical thirty, the degrees in each zodiac sign. Sepharial's list, for name totals, reads marriage, celebrity and celebration.
