Friday the 13th is an unlucky day to many superstitious folks and most don’t even know why.
Even floors in buildings often skip the 13th floor.
13 has deep roots in both the Christian and Pagan culture.
Many Christians have long believed that Friday was unlucky because it was the day of the week when Jesus was crucified. The number 13 was believed to bring bad luck because there were 13 people at The Last Supper.
On Friday, October 13, 1307, King Philip IV of France ordered the arrests of Jaques de Molay, Grand Master of the Knights Templers and sixty of his senior knights in Paris. Thousands of others were arrested elsewhere in the country. After employing torture techniques to compel the Templers to “confess” to wrongdoing, most were eventually executed and sympathizers of the Templers condemned Friday the 13th as an evil day. The number 13 has lucky and unlucky meanings all over the world.
I find it interesting that the fathers of our country who were very metaphysical started the USA with 13 colonies. The original flag had thirteen stars, one for each state. The American flag to this day has thirteen horizontal stripes.
The number thirteen always became a number related to the country’s symbols.
The Great Seal on the US dollar bill is one perfect example:
*13 Stripes on the Seal’s emblem
▪ Leaves on the olive branch (as well as thirteen olives)
▪ Arrows in the other grip
▪ Characters making up the dictum, E Pluribus Unum
▪ Characters making up the dictum, “Annuit cœptis”
▪ Breast coverts on the bird
▪ Layers of bricks in the truncated pyramid
It seems that the number 13 has scared people for years and probably for a good reason. It’s a magical number that can help control the masses. It’s associated with the Great Goddesses, and therefore, regarded as the sacred essence of luck and good fortune. It is always easy to hide something if you put it before someone’s nose.
Friday the 13th is ultimately the celebration of the lives and loves of Lady Luck.
