There is an argument that our social slavery is due to the
artificial 12/24 division of time dating from the establishing of
the gregorian calendar. By creating a "square and flat" division of
time it became more difficult to access non-ordinary realities which
means that reality was perceived as one-dimensional. There is a
wealth of info corroborating this and from my practical experience,
consciously doing away with the accepted perception of time helps in
Magical and "Toltec" endeavours .

This one is a bit "heady" but worth taking the time to understand. I
did not save the link. In a nutshell the author believed that the
number 12 replaced the number 11 as a measuring number and created
a "fixed" view of Reality


"So, even though it is a shockingly contentious thing to say, I
still maintain that the coversion to the 12 house system, the use of
the "12 sons of Jacob" and the 12 tribes, the cube and all of that
along with the correlation to the 360 degree circle are the chief
means of concealing the clues to the great secrets.
Without completely doing away with these ideas and all that is
derived from them or related to them, there can be no progress.
When we consider the number 11, or the 3-5 code, which is 3 8's, and
8 plus three equals 11, we find that the cube decomposes into the
tesseract, or the cross. The cross is the symbol of the "bad guys."
It is inscribed in the circle as evidence of the effect of the
negative forces on the cycle of creation... the attempt to "nail
Christ to the cross" or "restrict" the spirit... etc etc.
<<V: A tesseract is a word often applied to the 4D cube, the "hyper-
cube." What Laura means by "decomposed" here is unfolded into 2D
from 3D. A cube, with its six faces, unfolds into a cross pattern,
two squares down, one each around the center square. A hyper-cube
unfolds from 4D to 3D as six cubes, one each on the face of the
central seventh cube. >>
There is something called a "Schlafli symbol" which designates the
number of edges and faces of the various Platonic solids. The
Schlafli symbol for the dodecahedron is {5,3} and the Schlafli
symbol for the icosahedron is {3,5}.
<<V: The Schlafli number indicates that the icosahedron and the
dodecahedron are duals of each other, one has 20 faces and 12 edges,
and the other has 12 faces and 20 edges, hence 5/3 (5x4 = 20, 3x4 =
12) and 3/5. >>
The dodecahedron is a figure that can be decomposed into a pair of
five petaled pentagons. The Icosahedron can be decomposed into a
series of three rows of triangles. The Dodecahedron is associated
with "the stuff of which the constellations and heavens" are made.
The Icosahedron is associated with water. And, in fact, the double
wavy line symbol for Aquarius is very similar to the decomposed
Icosahedron just as the Dodecahedron "twin flowret" is similar to
the Gemini symbol. On the other hand, the cube, as noted, decomposes
into the cross, or tesseract. It was associated with earth and the
tetrahedron is fire and decomposes into four joined triangles which
also looks like a small triangle inside a large one.
So, if one begins to look at these figures and applies them to the
study, one may find quite different results."



I do not garantee this is the secret of Eternal Youth though! ;-)
