If man is five...then

Five is no ordinary number. The Chinese believe five elements make up everything under the heavens: metal, wood, water, fire, earth. Indeed, if you look at things in nature, you can see that most things really are different combinations of just these five things. Rocks, for example, are earth and metal; trees are wood and water and draw their nutrition from the earth.                                                                                                                    Yue Huang

Five also means balance and symbolizes man, health, and love. Five is the number of human beings. There are five senses: sight – hearing – taste – smell – touch. For me, 5 is the day of my birthday which also means, Leo is the fifth astrological sign in the Zodiac.

We do a "High Five" to celebrate in agreement with someone. The Jews will often call it “The Hand of Miriam”. Miriam was the sister of Moses and Aron. It may also represent the 5 books of the Torah.


The Five Olympic Rings symbolize the five continents. 
There are many more fun facts about the number five, which then may lead to the question if man is five, then the devil is six and God is seven. Perhaps these are other numbers I can research.

The band "the Pixies" came up with that line in their song "This monkey has gone to Heaven" and that may mean many things and perhaps each person interprets it differently. For me well I would say when I am done listening to all the input from others whether it is media, friends, and family I may think whatever, this monkey has done to heaven. In other words, I am not listening anymore. 


So if we want to talk numerological about 5,6,7 and count them together, which adds up to 18. All two-digit numbers ( in this case 1+8 ) get added together which then adds to 9. Nine is the number of heaven. Those born in the sign of Sagittarius, because Sagittarius is the ninth astrological sign in the Zodiac.
There you go...listen to the song and see what your thoughts are or just enjoy the sound of it.
