# Forty-Four

1 min read

And then there is the number. — **44.**

And then there is the number.
**44.**
The years 1979 and 2023 are separated by forty-four calendar years.
Numerology and modern angel-number traditions assign symbolic meanings to repeating numbers. These aren't astronomical or scientific claims; they belong to spiritual belief systems.
Within those traditions, **44 is commonly associated with foundations, perseverance, stability, discipline and building something that lasts.**
When I discovered that symbolism, it added another layer to something I was already trying to understand.
A ring of fire on the day of my birth.
Another ring of fire forty-four calendar years later.
Then the Harvest Supermoon entering Earth's shadow on September 17th, 2024 — the day of my awakening.
I don't present those events as scientific proof that some invisible force predetermined my life.
I don't need to.
Because the astronomical events themselves are extraordinary enough.
