In my trilogy of HERE WE GO AGAIN posts from earlier this year in advance of Super Tuesday, I describe the 2024 election as a bad case of déjà vu featuring the same two candidates as in 2020. I also predicted the very real possibility of one or both parties pulling an 11th-hour switcheroo, whether by choice or circumstance, leaving voters with an entirely new set of options. Unfolding events in recent days certainly make this prediction less than hypothetical. I hesitate to say I told you so but…

As I write this, hundreds of news reports and articles present a myriad of scenarios as the world speculates whether POTUS 46 will remain in power for another day, or if POTUS 47 will come sooner rather than later. In my posts of 2020, I laid out the case that Kamala Harris was indeed the most likely person to gain that title. Her vice presidency has been lackluster with doubts about leadership abilities.

The first US Presidential Debate (June 27) came earlier in the campaign cycle than any election in recent history, before either party had held their national convention formally naming their nominees and running mates. The debate evolved into adolescent taunts, each calling the other “the worst President in US history.” With the debate still underway, speculation and spin went into high gear, suggesting that POTUS 46 should step down.

POTUS 46 continued to assert his intention of remaining in the race, declaring himself the most qualified person to be president and to win the election (as per the ABC interview with George Stephanopolous, July 5, 2024). Increasing reports of gaffes and lapses suggest otherwise. POTUS 46 attempted to alleviate concerns with a press conference during the NATO summit in D.C. while world leaders observed and judged.

Meanwhile, POTUS 45 survived an assassination attempt during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on July 13, sending the public and media into a frenzy. Had the gunman’s bullet been half an inch closer, we could be dealing with the loss of the presumptive Republican nominee. The Republican National Convention was held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with heightened security measures in place. POTUS 45 began his acceptance speech with a more humble tone than usual as he recounted his close call with death, honored a victim of the shooting, expressed gratitude to the Secret Service, and acknowledged how close he came to not being there. The remainder of the longest acceptance speech in history invigorated those in attendance in typical Trump style.

The very real possibility of an imminent exit for POTUS 46, and an assassination attempt on POTUS 45, reinforces my prediction of one or both parties ending up with a different nominee. Following the shooting, both POTUS 45 and POTUS 46 called for national unity while denouncing political violence. It seemed to fall on deaf ears.

The contrasts between the parties couldn’t be more stark. Amid great fanfare at the Republican National Convention, Trump was nominated for president for the third time. Former rivals lined up and took to the stage in a show of solidarity and support for popular president and vice president nominees. A chorus of politicians, everyday citizens, and Trump family members sang his praises. Kid Rock and Hulk Hogan energized the audience. They presented a strong message of party unity while elevating their nominee to hero status. POTUS 45 was promoted as the only person capable of Making America Great Again and a long list of problems to be solved. A repeated sentiment attributed divine intervention for protecting their nominee from an assassin’s bullet.

In contrast, the Democratic Party offers a feeble unpopular incumbent candidate with no clear platform beyond defeat Trump at any cost. He described himself as the only person on the planet capable of doing so. Lawmakers and party leaders express concerns that if POTUS 46 remains in the race, Democrats will lose the White House and control of the House. Others boldly state that POTUS 46 should resign immediately. Headlines echo that the end is near for POTUS 46. The Democratic Party seems much less united while grasping at straws and desperately scrambling for a Plan B, short of taking away Biden’s keys to the White House.

Amid mounting pressure and another COVID-19 infection, it was hopeful that POTUS 46 may be coming to his senses to finally pull out of the race. With each passing day, members of Congress, the media, the public, and Democratic party megadonors, express the same concerns.

Doubt continues to grow if POTUS 46 can even make it to election day. Another presidential debate is likely out of the question. Just this weekend, concerned voters held a PASS THE TORCH rally in front of the White House. The shouts of “Joe Must Go” became amplified by the likes of Pelosi, Schumer, and Obama. POTUS 46 remains steadfast in his desire to return to the campaign trail. We’ll see where that trail leads.

Worldwide we are at an auspicious time in history, with tensions sparking talk of World War III amid threats of nuclear options. China, Russia, and Iran become cozier by the day. Domestically, the country faces deep ideological divides. The election, we are told, is for nothing less than the soul of the nation and will decide the fate of democracy itself. Whether that is the case or not, Americans deserve a strong leader who can stand up to and outwit our adversaries, and POTUS 46 is clearly not up to the task. We also need a uniter, not a divider. POTUS 45 promises to be a president for all Americans if elected as POTUS 47, but with an ever-moving line right down the middle, only half of Americans (give or take) have faith in such a promise.

At this point, I’m not sure how much we can depend on our “leaders” to unite us. As a nation, we need to figure out how to unite ourselves and discontinue the Us versus Them mentality before it’s too late. As Joe would whisper, leaning into the mic: That is not hyperbole.

Why are Master Numbers Important?

As I have asserted after decades of observation, the number synchronicity phenomenon appears most frequently during times of transition, chaos, and uncertainty. Many people might agree that we live in such times. The numbers demand our attention like a flashing neon sign. I predicted for quite some time, while not knowing if I would be alive to see it, that 2020 would be a tumultuous year. Only days following the 2020 election, calendars around the world displayed the dates of 11-11-2020 through 11-22-2020. One doesn’t need to be a numerologist to notice the unique number combinations.

In the aftermath of the 2020 US Presidential election, many people expected chaos and uncertainty to ensue, no matter who won. After all, riots and violence followed the 2016 election. Americans did not disappoint as the international community looked on in shock and dismay at unfolding events, questioning whether the United States had finally gone off the rails, while Americans appeared as a ship of fools lost at sea without direction.

The inauguration of POTUS 46 on January 20, 2021 (1-20-2021), a date that reads the same forward and backward, ushered in the beginning of a new cycle. More about that in a moment. It is noteworthy that this cycle change from POTUS 45 to POTUS 46 falls snugly between two master number presidents (POTUS 44 and POTUS 47).

The year 2022 offered numerous dates that caught the attention of the general public, not just number nerds like myself. With a long-standing interest in numerology, I eagerly anticipated 2022 for many years. A few interesting dates from that year:

• 1-11-2022
• 1-22-2022
• 2-2-2022
• 2-11-2022
• 2-22-2022
• 11-11-2022
• 11-22-2022.

It did not escape my attention that in 2024, three former US presidents aged 77 years celebrate their 78th birthday. POTUS 45 (Trump June 14), POTUS 43 (BUSH July 6), and POTUS 42 (Clinton August 19). POTUS 39 (Carter) is 99 years old.

Why is POTUS 47 Significant?

The appearance of master numbers is of particular interest in the context of the current election. One way or another, we are likely to welcome the arrival of POTUS 47 (4+7=11). This number may be of little consequence to most people. However, POTUS 47 echoes POTUS 29 (2+9=11) and POTUS 38 (3+8=11), two presidents who served a term shorter than four years. One died in office from a heart attack, and the other ascended to the presidency upon the resignation of his predecessor.

This comes as an omen to anyone assuming the title of POTUS 47. If history continues to repeat itself, my prediction is that POTUS 47 will be a result of POTUS 46 leaving office sooner than expected. As a nation, do we stay with POTUS 46 or get on with it by moving history forward with the next master number president, POTUS 47 (4+7=11)? It seems the answer is clear, but what are our options?

DEMOCRATIC PARTY OPTIONS

An in-depth review of the numerical fingerprint of POTUS 46 can be found in POTUS POTENTIAL: Biden Time, posted before the 2020 election. In summary, only one master number appears as the BIRTH MONTH (11), and some creative math squeezes out another 11 by adding up the month, day, and year slightly differently. Master numbers in the name that indicate mastery appear as the FIRST NAME VOWELS reduced (11), MIDDLE NAME CONSONANTS (74/11), and LAST NAME CONSONANTS reduced (11). Otherwise, a complete absence of master numbers could signal mediocrity rather than greatness. With 5 being the most abundant number, it turns out to be significant in the overall numerical fingerprint. A complete absence of 3s, the number of expression and speech, suggests weak communication skills.

POTUS 46 was age 77 at the time of the last election, becoming the oldest person elected as president. If he wins re-election in 2024, he will turn 83 (8+3=11) during his second term. These two master numbers are noteworthy but otherwise, this numerical fingerprint presents little in the way of mastery.

To achieve their primary goal of preventing POTUS 45 from returning to the White House, it appears inevitable that the Democratic Party will be making adjustments to Plan A very soon. Although Biden has yet to be officially named as the nominee, discussion is underway of doing so virtually in advance of the Democratic National Convention in August. Whether that nominating process is delayed or accelerated is yet to be seen, and doing so at the convention would entail delegate deliberations and backroom wrangling.

Names of proposed Biden replacements vary by news source but usually include Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Pete Buttigieg, Josh Shapiro, J.B. Pritzker, and Andy Beshear. [From THE HILL 7/1/2024]. The numerical fingerprints of those seven, and others, can be found in these posts:

HERE WE GO AGAIN – PART I posted in February suggests options should Biden become incapacitated, relinquish the party nomination on his own accord, or be replaced by party leaders: Harris, Newsom, Pritzker, Whitmer, Polis, Shapiro, Beshear, and Booker. Also reviewed are Phillips and Williamson, both of whom did not suspend their campaign until late in the game. Among these, Phillips, Newsom, and Shapiro possess a strong presence of master numbers.

POTUS POTENTIALS: VEEP TIME presents the numerical fingerprints of women being considered as potential running mates for Biden in 2020, posted before he made the announcement. These include Harris, Whitmer, Warren, Duckworth, Abrams, Rice, Bass, and Baldwin. Harris has promising numbers, especially boasting a K (11) and a V (22) in her name, ranking among the top of the group.

Vice-President Kamala Harris immediately held the potential to become POTUS 47 since day one of the Biden-Harris administration. If Biden does not make it to election day, due to unexpected death, removal from office, or resignation, Harris is the most likely person to be POTUS 47, even if for only a few weeks or months. That remains a very real possibility. As the likely beneficiary of Biden’s fundraising war chest, campaign infrastructure, and staff, her management skills offer mixed reviews. Whether becoming POTUS accidentally or intentionally, Harris may not be the most desirable option but remains the most likely.

POTUS POTENTIALS: BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME presents the numerical fingerprints of Biden’s challengers during the 2020 election: Sanders, Warren, Bloomberg, Gabbard, Klobuchar, Buttigieg, Steyer, Patrick, Bennet, and Yang. Among these, Bloomberg and Yang possess a strong presence of master numbers. Several of them could be popular options for Democrats to consider for a last-minute ticket, in addition to or instead of Harris.

REPUBLICAN PARTY OPTIONS

Despite being impeached, indicted on felony charges, investigated, and nearly assassinated POTUS 45 has only grown in popularity within his party as he seeks to return to the White House as POTUS 47.

My post POTUS PRESENT: MAGA Saga provides an in-depth review of the numerical fingerprint of POTUS 45. When elected in 2016, Donald Trump became the oldest person to become POTUS at age 70 years, 220 days (7+2+2=11). He was 74 (7+4=11) at the time of the November 2020 election. He was 77 during this 2024 campaign season until his birthday on June 14. The BIRTH DATE of 6-14-1946 presents an interesting balance with two each of 1, 4, and 6 (1+4+6=11), and a total of 22 if added as DD+MM+YYYY = 1966 (1+9+6+6=22). The LAST NAME total is 88 and the FULL NAME is comprised of 11 consonants. The MIDDLE NAME total is 47/11.

In preparing hundreds of numerical fingerprints over the years, the master numbers 11, 22, 33, and sometimes 44 can be common, often signaling the potential for mastery. It is rare to see higher master numbers such as 88. The unique quality of 88 is as if you joined two Hs (HH), the eighth letter of the alphabet. Some numerologists compare this to a double ladder with one going up and the other down. From a numerology perspective, the presence of 88 requires someone uniquely capable of handling higher levels of responsibility, otherwise they risk self-destructive behavior. As suggested in the reference section below, 88 can signal great ambition and success, which POTUS 45 certainly embodies. However, when overwhelmed by the negative vibration of 88, it can manifest as sarcasm, dishonesty, ulterior motives, and evil intent. I am not implying that this applies to POTUS 45, known for a sarcastic tweet from time to time. Readers can make their own conclusions.

Concerning POTUS 45, I have noticed the presence of master numbers aside from those found in his numerical fingerprint:

• Numerology of MAGA: 13+1+7+1=22
• 88022 Number to text for contributions to the Trump campaign
• 88 criminal counts in four cases: Hush Money (34); Classified Documents (40); Georgia election (10), January 6 (4). A recent Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity and a dismissal of the classified documents case may result in the delay or dismissal of remaining cases.
• Although Donald J. Trump is, and always will be, known as POTUS 45, he is actually the 44th person to hold that office. In this regard, the obvious fact of 44 being half of 88 is a strong signal from a numerology perspective. Combine this with the possibility of becoming POTUS 47.

What seems important to remember, at this point in history, is that the influence of 44 is unusually strong. Although more prevalent during the two terms of POTUS 44, it continues with POTUS 45. A 44 leader requires someone with an equally strong numerical fingerprint and the characteristics and traits to manage higher obligations and responsibilities inherent with master numbers.

Recalling how upset POTUS 45 and his supporters were following the 2020 election, I would imagine a similar reaction should the title of POTUS 47 be snatched away by Harris or anyone else. Confidence in a Trump victory is evident in mass-produced MAGA hats and other campaign schwag featuring the numbers 45-47.

Leading up to the first presidential debate, speculation swirled around who might be Trump’s running mate. Among those former challengers, some hoped to be considered as vice president or to fill cabinet positions, and some were out of the question altogether (e.g. Pence). Numerical fingerprints for several possibilities are presented in HERE WE GO AGAIN – PART II and include Haley, DeSantis, Ramaswamy, Scott, Pence, Binkley, Hutchinson, Christie, and Noem.

Before the official announcement of a running mate at the convention, media speculation of a VEEP shortlist included none of those names, so I took a quick peek at the top three rumored potential picks:

• JD Vance (US Sen -OH) at age 39 would celebrate his 44th birthday during a first term and 47th birthday if re-elected. With a middle name of David, he boasts two Vs (22) in his name.
• Marco Rubio (US Sen – FL) currently aged 53 would celebrate birthdays 55 and 56 if elected as VP and a quick look at his numerical fingerprint shows a date of birth that adds to 33. A closer look might reveal more.
• Douglas Burgum (GOV – ND) nothing in the way of master numbers is readily apparent in either the date of birth or the name, although a closer look might reveal something.

Events unfold faster than I can write. In the time it took to check the numerical fingerprints of the Top 3, I heard the news about the selection of Vance. Below is a closer look at his numerical fingerprint. With that announcement, Vivek Ramaswamy may fill Vance’s vacant Senate seat in the event of a Trump/Vance win. The numerical fingerprint for Ramaswamy reveals mastery and high potential, and his first name shines with a K (11) and two Vs (22).

Vance comes with some notoriety from his autobiography and the Ron Howard film about his life, Hillbilly Elegy. What may or may not be common knowledge is Vance’s birth name, James Donald Bowman. Through high school, his time in the Marines, and at Ohio State University, he went by the name of James David Hamel. In numerology, it is helpful to review the numerical fingerprint at birth as well as any name change, such as following a marriage. The birth name offers a starting point, while a name change may suggest a course correction and growth beyond inherent potential. For this purpose, only Bowman and Vance will be reviewed.

JAMES DONALD BOWMAN

• BIRTH DATE = 32/5
• VOWELS = 61/7 (full); 16/7 (reduced)
• CONSONANTS = 105/6 (full); 24/6 (reduced)
• FIRST NAME = 48/12/3 (full); 12/3 (reduced)
• MIDDLE NAME = 50/5 (full); 23/5 (reduced)
• LAST NAME = 68/14/5 (full); 23/5 (reduced)
• FULL NAME (17 letters) = 166/13/4 (full); 40/4 (reduced)
• MOST COMMON NUMBERS = five 1s; four 4s and 5s, two 6s
• LEAST COMMON OR MISSING NUMBERS = one each of 2 and 3, with 7, 8, and 9 missing

The date of birth in this numerical fingerprint results in a 5, although the sum of the numbers in 1984 equals 22. Currently, at age 39, he will celebrate his 44th birthday during the next election in 2028, and if re-elected at that time will celebrate his 47th birthday in 2031. These master number birthdays are noteworthy for someone who could be the next vice-president, and/or a future POTUS.

With this birth name, the only presence of master numbers is found in the LAST NAME CONSONANTS with a total of 29/11. The FULL NAME total of 166 may be considered a type of master number.

As with Biden/Harris, comparing weak and strong numbers identifies how the president and vice president complement each other. In this regard, with Bowman, no strong numbers offset Trump’s weak numbers. Similarly, only one of Trump’s strong numbers balances out Bowman’s weak numbers. They share mostly the same weak and strong numbers. Ideally, such a team might benefit from their differences by strengthening the other’s weaknesses. In this case, the two are very much alike.

JAMES DAVID VANCE (US SEN – OH)

• BIRTH DATE = 32/5
• VOWELS = 22
• CONSONANTS = 111/3 (full); 12/3 (reduced)
• FIRST NAME = 48/12/3 (full); 12/3 (reduced)
• MIDDLE NAME = 40/4 (full); 4 (reduced)
• LAST NAME =45/9 (full); 9 (reduced)
• FULL NAME (15 letters) = 133/7 (full); 16/7 (reduced)
• MOST COMMON NUMBERS = five 1s and 4s, three 5s
• LEAST COMMON OR MISSING NUMBERS = one each of 3 and 9, with 2, 6, 7, 8 missing

Obviously, nothing different occurs with the date of birth, but interesting things happen when considering the name change from Bowman to Vance.

The most significant difference in this name change is seen with the presence of the two Vs in the middle name and last name, giving Harris a run for her money with her K and V. There is a unique balance with five letters in each name, first, middle, and last. Furthermore, the VOWELS total becomes 22 and the new CONSONANTS total is 111, often considered a super master number. The first name remains the same, but with a new MIDDLE NAME total (40) and a new LAST NAME total (45), the FULL NAME total becomes 133, a difference of 33 from the 166 with Bowman. Slicing it from a different angle, the MIDDLE NAME VOWELS are reduced by 6 and the LAST NAME VOWELS are reduced by 33, for a net loss of 39. Likewise, the MIDDLE NAME CONSONANTS are reduced by 4 and the LAST NAME CONSONANTS increase by 10, with a net gain of 6. Combined, this results in a net loss of 33, and a FULL NAME total of 133. These are noteworthy, with no other master numbers appearing.

In comparing weak and strong numbers following the name change, the only difference is with the 6. The most common numbers appear as five 1s (A,J, S) and 4s (D, M, V) with three 5s (E, N). Some of Vance’s weak numbers can be found in other areas of this numerical fingerprint, such as MIDDLE NAME VOWELS (1), FIRST NAME TOTAL (3), FIRST NAME CONSONANTS (6), LAST NAME VOWELS (6), FULL NAME TOTAL (7), and LAST NAME TOTAL (9). Conspicuously absent is 8.

With TRUMP-VANCE campaign placards waving at the convention, I took the liberty of comparing the numerology of this combination to the eerily similar TRUMP-PENCE, only two letters differ. With TRUMP=88 and PENCE=43, the total is 131. With TRUMP=88 and VANCE=45, the total is 133.

Unless Harris is already POTUS, a vice president debate between Harris and Vance will be must-see TV, especially since either or both of them could be a future POTUS.

Should the 2024 election result in victory for Republicans, history will repeat when POTUS 22 lost re-election the first time around and returned four years later to become POTUS 24. If POTUS 45 becomes POTUS 47, he also risks the possibility of a shortened term, whether due to a health crisis, another assassination attempt, or removal from office for some other reason. Despite the Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity and dismissal of the classified documents case, the threat of imprisonment looms, either before or after the election. Depending on how and when the election unfolds, the door opens for Vance to become POTUS 47, 48, or 49. The parade of presidents could go from POTUS 46 to POTUS 49 very quickly.

>>Similar rapid POTUS successions have occurred in the past, with three presidents in 1841 and three presidents in 1881, discussed in more detail in upcoming posts featuring numerical fingerprints for POTUS Past<<

INDEPENDENT PARTY OPTIONS

The various scenarios presented by the media for the arrival of POTUS 47 typically involve only Democrats and Republicans. If either or both of those parties have a meltdown with a nominee unraveling for whatever reason, a third-party candidate could see a boost from voters migrating toward the middle. Such an effort may be dismissed as a long shot and a spoiler, or a protest vote likely to affect nothing. Nonetheless, the post HERE WE GO AGAIN – PART III provides in-depth reviews of the numerical fingerprints of third-party nominees including Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Joe Manchin, Jill Stein, and Cornel West. Among these, Kennedy remains a force to contend with, likely to siphon votes from both Republicans and Democrats. More than a few voters consider a vote for Biden as a vote for Harris. Similarly, some voters express fear of a second Trump term. To dismiss radical and extreme elements of both parties, a growing number of Americans seek a moderate president with skills to foster cooperation and unity. Instead of wild pendulum swings from left to right, what about balance and calm for a change?

ROBERT F. KENNEDY, JR. (Environmental Lawyer)

Kennedy himself admitted that, in a general election against both POTUS 45 and POTUS 46, zero chance he would win. However, if running against one or the other, he expressed confidence in a victory. Such a win would welcome the first Independent president since George Washington.

Despite being excluded from the first and, as of yet, only presidential debate, Kennedy continues to gain ballot access in more states and receive more positive press coverage. Both Democrats and Republicans have discredited his run for office, and even his own famous family, staunch Biden supporters, have ridiculed and dismissed him. Politics and poll numbers aside, what does his numerical fingerprint reveal?

In summary, Kennedy’s numerical fingerprint reveals nothing remarkable in the BIRTH DATE per se. However, at 70 years of age, if elected as POTUS 47, he would celebrate his 74th (7+4=11) birthday in his first term, and the 77th birthday in a second term. This is somewhat noteworthy, but we have better luck finding master numbers with a K (11) in the LAST NAME. The FIRST NAME and LAST NAME have exactly the same full totals of 78/15/6 and reduced totals of 33. The LAST NAME CONSONANTS total is 33. The FIRST NAME has a reduced VOWELS total of 11 and a reduced CONSONANTS total of 22. The VOWELS total in the FULL NAME is 65/11 (full) or 38/11 (reduced). Such a proliferation of master numbers in this numerical fingerprint, combined with the timely birthdays, identifies strong POTUS potential.

A look at the numerical fingerprint of Kennedy’s running mate, Nicole Shanahan, suggests a good choice for vice president.

NICOLE ANN SHANAHAN (Attorney)

• BIRTH DATE = 40/4; or 2020/4
• VOWELS = 33 (full); 24/6 (reduced)
• CONSONANTS = 120/3 (full); 48/12/3 (reduced)
• FIRST NAME = 58/13/4 (full); 22 (reduced)
• MIDDLE NAME = 29/11 (full); 11 (reduced)
• LAST NAME = 66 (full); 12/3 (reduced)
• FULL NAME (17 letters) = 153/9 (full); 36/9 (reduced)
• MOST COMMON NUMBERS = six 5s, five 1s, two 3s and 8s
• LEAST COMMON OR MISSING NUMBERS = one each of 6 and 9, with 2, 4, and 7 missing

With this BIRTH DATE, nothing spectacular jumps out when seeking master numbers. By adding the numbers as DD+MM+YYYY the total is 2020, which some may consider a master number in and of itself. Otherwise, the BIRTH DATE is a 40/4. Her current age of 38 (3+8=11) is a good sign in light of Kennedy’s age. If the Kennedy/Shanahan ticket was to miraculously win the 2024 election, Shanahan would turn 44 if elected to a second term.

More substantial master numbers appear when examining the name. The FIRST NAME reduced total is 22. The MIDDLE NAME total is 29/11 and the LAST NAME total is 66. Again, one of the higher master numbers, with positive qualities of cheerfulness and humor. Negative traits of jealousy and impatience for 66 seem not so bad, compared to 88. The FIRST NAME VOWELS total is 29/11 and the FIRST NAME CONSONANTS total is 29/11. The FULL NAME VOWELS is 33. The strongest numbers in this name appear as six 5s (E, N) and five 1s (A, S). Only a few of the weak numbers can be found elsewhere in this numerical fingerprint.

Why I am Presenting this Information

I understand that numerology may be considered a bit abstract for readers unfamiliar with metaphysical principles. How could something as ubiquitous as numbers have anything to do with synchronicity or the evolution of consciousness? To provide a practical application for readers, I first used numerology in the context of the 2004 election, specifically seeking out master numbers in the numerical fingerprints of candidates and nominees. Out of curiosity, I continued similar observations during subsequent elections leading up to the arrival of POTUS 44 (Obama), and elections since then.

As I began to notice unusual patterns, my strange obsession compelled me to explore some of the past presidents. What I uncovered revealed clues to deciphering a secret code, a POTUS CODE.

With skills to find things overlooked by others, I first observed and documented number synchronicity in the early 1980s while working as an archaeologist. Studies in transpersonal psychology and metaphysics provide a rare balance between science and spirituality.

Respected professionals from a variety of fields observed and documented a similar phenomenon outside their normal areas of study. Biologist Paul Kammerer described a seriality that operates independently of known physical laws. Psychologist Carl Jung identified a meaningful coincidence of events involving something beyond chance as synchronicity or an acausal connecting principle. Jung collaborated with the physicist Wolfgang Pauli and his obsession with the number 137 and the fine structure constant. The astronomer Camille Flammarion allegedly collected coincidences. Whatever they named it, each of them encouraged future scientific investigation.

My doctoral research expanded on their work with the added element of numbers, The Significance of Master Numbers in the Evolution of Human Consciousness led to the 2004 nonfiction book Number Synchronicity: A Beacon of Light on the Soul’s Journey. Along the way, I presented my research at several conferences of the international metaphysical community, with a brief spurt of TV interviews, and magazine and newspaper articles. People share with me their mystical and coincidental experiences with numbers.

>>The synchronistic appearance of master numbers provides guidance and comfort during times of chaos, transition, and uncertainty.<<

My research establishes conclusive evidence of a worldwide phenomenon More than just an odd coincidence to be shrugged off, these experiences may signal the evolution of human consciousness, propelling our species further ahead than we are now from Neanderthals. That is if we pay attention to the signs.

In my efforts to pay attention to the signs, I documented the occurrence of master numbers found in human anatomy, nature, world religions, space exploration, sports, entertainment, trivia, history, and world news events. For example, this week marks the 55th anniversary of the Apollo XI Moon landing, when Armstrong/Aldrin took 122 photographs while walking on the lunar surface. Individually, examples such as this may seem irrelevant and insignificant, but together they produce something greater.

Seemingly separate threads weave the fabric of a new understanding. Unique patterns uncovered in the numerical fingerprints of POTUS Present, POTUS Potential, and POTUS Past represent only a fraction of my overall research, and not necessarily the most remarkable.

Perhaps a relevant and timely example for anyone unfamiliar with metaphysical principles and the practical application of numerology.

Failing eyesight has slowed me way down, rendering me prone to accidents and injuries. I have come to accept that this is my first and last attempt at a blog. Perhaps someone other than a number nerd like myself might appreciate what I have put together.

• In doing so, I steadfastly maintain objectivity and neutrality, neither endorsing nor condemning any political party or candidate
• You will have no luck finding me on social media seeking attention and followers
• I am not selling any product or service, certainly not promoting a 20-year-old book
• I am the messenger for something that escapes my full understanding and consider it incumbent on me to share freely during this important election

Follow the Trail of Numbers

This auspicious and tumultuous time warrants our attention and caution to increase our chances of survival. Navigating this journey into the future may be enhanced by turning to history.

Identifying the master number presidents since George Washington serves as signposts along the highway of history to gauge if the country is still going in the right direction and not into the ditch. POTUS Past are grouped in cycles of nine presidents. This is due to the basic numerical digits of 1 through 9. Within each cycle, master number presidents are identified and reviewed in greater depth by looking at their numerical fingerprints.

How might the information revealed with the numerical fingerprints of POTUS Past inform the current election?

The time during a master number POTUS offers an opportunity to be aware and, more importantly, to be mindful of what occurs between them. Indeed, the time we currently find ourselves in, following POTUS 44 and awaiting POTUS 47, has been a doozy. The prevalence of master numbers revealed in any numerical fingerprint provides clues as to the level of mastery. Was this the right person for the job during that time in history, or was POTUS asleep at the wheel? Would George Washington approve?

>>By looking at the numerical fingerprints of select presidents from the past we find clues along the way showing us how we got to where we are today, and possibly how to proceed into the future. To begin, we must begin at the beginning with POTUS 1.<<

• POTUS 1: The One and Only Cycle One explores the birth and infancy of the United States beginning with George Washington and ending abruptly with POTUS 9 (Harrison), the first death of a president while in office. This cycle lasted 52 years.
• POTUS 11: OK OK Cycle Two begins with POTUS 10 (Tyler) and witnesses the first master number POTUS 11 (Polk). The acquisition of vast territories encouraged westward expansion in this cycle ending with POTUS 18 (Grant) cleaning up the aftermath of the Civil War. Two presidents died while in office. This cycle lasted 36 years.
• POTUS 22: TWO V OR NOT TWO V Cycle Three begins with POTUS 19 (Hayes) and sees the next master number POTUS 22 (Cleveland) in the middle of the cycle. To date, he was the only president elected to two non-consecutive terms, also elected as POTUS 24. The Spanish-American War added more territories. Two presidents died while in office during this cycle that ended with POTUS 27 (Taft). This cycle lasted 36 years.
• POTUS 33: THREE CHEERS FOR A TRUE MAN Cycle Four begins with POTUS 28 (Wilson) and ends with POTUS 36 (Johnson). This is the first cycle to have a secondary master number president with POTUS 29 (Harding). The highlight of this cycle is POTUS 33 (Truman). Three presidents died while in office – one being POTUS 29. With US involvement in WWI, WWII, the Cold War, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, this cycle lasted 56 years.
• POTUS 44: THE LAST OF THE MASTERS Cycle Five begins with POTUS 37 (Nixon) immediately followed by the next secondary master number POTUS 38 (Ford). Similar to POTUS 29, POTUS 38 also served a shorter than four-year term. This cycle also welcomed the last master number POTUS 44 (Obama). This cycle witnessed US involvement in nearly endless wars referred to as Post-9/11 Wars. With POTUS 45 (Trump), Cycle Five ended as messy as it began. This was the only cycle to have no death of a POTUS while in office. This cycle lasted 52 years, the same as Cycle One.

Two cycles lasted 36 years, two cycles lasted 52 years, and one cycle lasted 56 years, providing an idea of how long it could take to arrive at the next cycle.

Presumably, the 2024 election is for the title of POTUS 47. The proximity of POTUS 44 to POTUS 47 is closer than any set of master number POTUS in the past. For example, the time between POTUS 22 and POTUS 29 is greater than that between POTUS 33 and POTUS 38, which is greater than the time between POTUS 44 and POTUS 47, where we currently find ourselves at the beginning of Cycle Six. As graphed above, the primary master numbers proceed in a staggered fashion, with secondary master numbers occurring only in the second position. That is the past.

For now, in the present, we are in limbo with a lame-duck POTUS 46. The upcoming election presents several unique situations that echo the past. If POTUS 45 is re-elected, it would repeat history from Cycle Three when POTUS 22 was re-elected as POTUS 24. It is also a race for POTUS 47, and as my research suggests, signals a potential repeat of the shortened terms of POTUS 29 and POTUS 38. This portends rapid, unexpected changes likely to disturb and confuse.

The next such master number sets will occur at the beginning of Cycle Seven with POTUS 55 and POTUS 56 (5+6=11), appearing even closer together than 44 and 47. Depending on how many one- and two-term presidents we see between now and then, that could be as soon as 32 years or as long as 64 years. Anywhere from 72 to 144 years from now, POTUS 65 and POTUS 66 similarly occur in Cycle Eight with no gap in between. This puts us well into the 22nd Century. I anticipate a time of huge transformation for humanity. We choose to evolve and rise above our human frailties or spiral into self-destruction.

It is also noteworthy that 55/56 is the first such set to occur within the same cycle. The same is true for Cycle Eight with 65/66, Cycle Nine with 74/77, Cycle Ten with 83/88, and Cycle Eleven with 92/99. The gap between master number sets begins to widen again, repeating in reverse order the same gaps as with 44/47, 33/38, 22/29, and 1/11. Similar to the past, the primary master numbers proceed in a staggered fashion with secondary master numbers lining up in the second position.

When election results became known late November 6, 2016, people around me seemed genuinely shocked and enraged when Trump became POTUS 45. It was no surprise for me, with knowledge of the numerical fingerprints. Political scientists, pundits, pollsters, analysts, strategists, reporters, and journalists asked themselves how so many of them got it so wrong. 

The Answer is Simple: Statistics and poll numbers with margins of error are subject to manipulation and interpretation. As an alternative to poll numbers so readily disseminated and devoured, the ancient science of numerology offers a reliable, consistent, time-tested method.

The process involves the two things we all have in common: a name and a date of birth. This creates a unique numerical fingerprint, revealing signs of mastery. When applied to presidential candidates, nominees, wannabees, and also-rans, I refer to this as POTUS Potential. Numerical fingerprints for all to see, with raw numbers exposed and analyzed.

POTUS CODE offers a relevant and timely diversion without division and deception

Skeptical readers may be compelled to toss this into the waste bin of pseudo-science and declare it mystical hogwash. Whether you believe in numerology or know nothing about it, compelling evidence speaks for itself.

No harm exists in a unique approach that takes into consideration the numerical fingerprints of your favorite, and least favorite, candidates. Perhaps for a brief time, we can see beyond partisan politics, polls, pundits, and propaganda to recall a time when we came together as a nation with a common purpose.

Today (July 20, 2024) auspiciously marks the 55th anniversary of the Apollo XI mission with the first and last human steps on the Moon. While on the Moon, astronauts received a call from POTUS 37 in the White House. He said in part:

As you talk to us from the Sea of Tranquility it inspires us to redouble our efforts to bring peace and tranquility to Earth. For one priceless moment in the whole history of man, all the people on this Earth are truly one. One in their pride in what you have done, and one in our prayers that you will return safely to Earth.

Check back over the coming weeks leading up to the November 5 election as I roll out the numerical fingerprints of POTUS Past. Find relevant updates below.

UPDATES:

Well, the first change warranting an update occurred the day after I published this post.

7.21.2024

Biden withdrew from the race and intends to carry out his duties for the remainder of his term. He endorsed Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party nominee. A variety of names are already being floated as potential running mates (Shapiro, Pritzker, Whitmer, Beshear). The numerical fingerprint for them can be found in HERE WE GO AGAIN – PART I. This leaves open the door for other possibilities at the Democratic National Convention in August. Indeed, Joe Manchin, formerly a Democrat who switched to Independent, is reverting back to the Democratic Party in an apparent challenge to Harris’ nomination. His numerical fingerprints is reviewed in the post with other Independents HERE WE GO AGAIN – PART III

8.6.2024

Harris announced her pick for running mate, which turned out to be none of the names being tossed about or on my list of people for which numerical fingerprints have been prepared. Therefore, please find here the detailed numerical fingerprint for the Democratic VP nominee, Tim Walz.

TIMOTHY JAMES WALZ (GOV – MN)

• BIRTH DATE = 30/3 or 21/3
• VOWELS = 56/11 (full); 29/11 (reduced)
• CONSONANTS = 164/11 (full); 38/11 (reduced)
• FIRST NAME = 110/2 (full); 38/11 (reduced)
• MIDDLE NAME = 48/12/3 (full); 12/3 (reduced)
• LAST NAME = 62/8 (full); 17/8 (reduced)
• FULL NAME (16 letters) = 220 (full); 22 (reduced)
• MOST COMMON NUMBERS = four 1s, two each of 2, 4, 5, 8
• LEAST COMMON OR MISSING NUMBERS = one each of 3, 6, 7, 9; none missing

No evidence of master numbers readily appears in the date of birth. However, if elected, Walz would celebrate his 65th and 66th birthday in a second term. The same is true for Harris, as they share the same year of birth.

In looking at the name, it is interesting to note that the first name and last name have the same total of 61/7. Numerous letters from the end of the alphabet (T, W, Y, Z) result in a higher than usual FULL NAME total. Master numbers occur in several places: FIRST NAME VOWELS reduced (22), FIRST NAME TOTAL (110 or 38/11), FULL NAME VOWELS (56/11 or 29/11), FULL NAME CONSONANTS (164/11 or 38/11), and FULL NAME TOTAL (220 or 22).

The most abundant number is 1, with two each of 2, 4, 5, 8. Although there is a deficiency of 3, 6, 7, and 9, there are no missing numbers. Comparing the strong and weak numbers to Harris reveals how they complement each other.

The name totals for the Democratic ticket of HARRIS (73) + WALZ (62) equals 135 whereas the Republican ticket of TRUMP (88) + VANCE (45) equals 133. In this regard, the Democrats come out slightly ahead.

If you tally up the master numbers for each team by assigning a score of 1 for each 11, a 2 for each 22, etc. the results look like this:

HARRIS: two 11s, three 22s, one 44, one 66 = 18 joined with WALZ: four 11s, two 22s, one 66 = 14 for a team total of 32.

TRUMP: two 11s, one 22, one 44, one 77, one 88 = 23 with VANCE: two 11s, three 22s, and one 44 = 12 for a team total of 35. Two super master numbers of 111 and 133 also appear, with 133 being the total for TRUMP/VANCE, Vance’s FULL NAME total, and Trump’s CONSONANTS total. This gives an extra boost to this score.

Based on this information alone, TRUMP scores significantly higher than HARRIS, and WALZ scores slightly higher than VANCE. The TRUMP/VANCE team leads HARRIS/WALZ by 3 points.

Other potential VP picks that Harris was considering score the same or higher than WALZ. For example, BESHEAR (14), SHAPIRO (15), and PRITZKER (21) which would have created a higher-scoring team. Likewise, several Republican contenders such as Haley and Ramaswamy score much higher than Vance. Both Harris and Trump could have chosen running mates with higher scores but, with these choices, it nearly evens out.

Including the Independent ticket of KENNEDY (78) + SHANAHAN (66) equals 144, significantly higher than either the Democratic or Republican tickets, and ups the ante with the TRUMP/VANCE super master number total of 133. Also, the reduced LAST NAME total for KENNEDY is 33, bestowing this team with two master numbers. KENNEDY: four 11s, one 22, two 33s, and one 77 = 19 with SHANAHAN: four 11s, two 22s, one 33, one 44, and one 66 = 21 for a team total of 40. While KENNEDY scores higher than HARRIS and lower than TRUMP, SHANAHAN scores much higher than both WALZ and VANCE, and together KENNEDY/SHANAHAN score higher than HARRIS/WALZ and TRUMP/VANCE.

If the electorate was not beholden to a binary choice while mesmerized by an avalanche of poll numbers, an outside-the-box winner is clearly the Independent ticket. Chew on that for a while.

At this point in the election cycle not much is likely to change in the immediate future. However, I anticipate another surprise, switcheroo, or shenanigan before or shortly after election day. Stay tuned and return here for updates. Thank you for reading..

As an alternative to poll numbers with margins of error subject to manipulation, consider these raw numbers from the numerical fingerprints of the presidential and vice-presidential nominees among Republicans, Democrats, and Independents. The numerical fingerprints identify potential strengths with the most common numbers (four or more) and weaknesses with any missing numbers.

Final Ranking

• Trump is the only person listed here without an abundance of a particular number, and no missing number, with all numbers spread evenly
• Walz is the only other person here with no missing numbers, and the most abundant number is 1 for confident leadership and independence
• Kennedy ranks next with only one missing number and an abundance of 5 for freedom and change and 9 for compassionate giving
• Shanahan, Harris, and Vance each show an abundance of 1, with Shanahan leading the pack. Missing numbers among this group lean to 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8, with Vance having the most.
• Now irrelevant, Biden shows only one missing number and an abundance of 2 and 5

8.23.2024

At the Democratic National Convention, Kamala Harris accepts the nomination for president with Tim Walz as her running mate.

8.23.2024

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. suspends his campaign in most battleground states and endorses the Republican Party nominee, Donald Trump. Kennedy will remain on ballots in some states.

8.29.2024

After weeks of criticism for no unscripted interview or press conference, Harris holds her first live interview on CNN, with Tim Walz by her side.

9.10.2024

The first presidential debate between Trump and Harris was hosted and moderated by ABC. Afterwards, Harris called for a second debate, which Trump declined.

9.13.2024

Following widespread criticism that the debate moderators fact-checked Trump but not Harris during the debate, she held her first solo interview without her running mate by her side. The interview with an ABC affiliate offered five questions, resulting in no additional clarity regarding issues and policies.

9.15.2024

While golfing at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, Trump was the target of a second assassination attempt by a lone gunman hiding in the trees along the perimeter. Secret Service agents fired on the suspect who fled the scene and was later apprehended.

10.1.2024

CBS News hosted the Vice Presidential debate between Vance and Walz. The focus was mostly on policy around immigration, abortion, the economy, and war in the Middle East. The numerous crises they touched on facing the country: Housing Crisis, Border Crisis, Fentanyl Crisis, Mental Health Crisis, Gun Violence Crisis, among others. Are we really in that bad of shape? Then we hear “Elect me and my running mate, because we have the best plan to fix all that ails the nation.”

11.5.2024

Early election results show victory for POTUS 45 to become POTUS 47. Donald Trump is the second person elected as president for two non-consecutive terms. The first was POTUS 22/24, Grover Cleveland. Both present remarkable numerical fingerprints.

11.10.2024

With Arizona as the final state to be called, AP reports electoral votes of 312 Trump and 226 Harris, with 270 needed to win. Republicans hold a 53-46 majority in the Senate, with one to be called. The balance of power in the House could go either way with 19 seats yet to be called. To reach 218, Democrats at 203 need 15 of those, and Republicans at 213 need only five.
