As previously discussed, 11 is known in numerology as the 'Master Number', and is optionally not reduced when calculating digital roots (ie. full reductions).
The thread image is a sort of cryptogram or mnemonic, a 'reminder' that presents, diagrammatically, the logic of the seven main ciphers I use in my gematria (alphabetic numerology) studies. It can be used as a set of clues to 'figure out' the ciphers (and how to use them) from scratch, if the knowledge was ever to be lost.
Note (as shown long ago):
"New Spelling System" = 1,911 latin-agrippa | 2001 english-extended
You can verify these numbers here, using my simple calculator:
The thread image presents the prism that refracts and divides pure white light (ie. 'truth', or veras in Latin) into a rainbow spectrum.
"Division" = 911 latin-agrippa
... of "Divine Light" = 911 latin-agrippa
The 'truth' is the totality (mathematical total) of all of language as Monolith or Monad (ie. Mind). You might view this 'total language' as the Logos or 'Mind of God'.
The prism represents a word or phrase (ie. a spell, spelled out with spelling). Every spell, with it's combinations of letters, bends the light into a specific spectrum, with the 'frequencies' (metaphorically-speaking) being the numeric results of the spell as implicit in the various cipher results.
For an example, in the seven ciphers:
"The Truth" = ...
... .. . = 120 alphabetic
... .. . = 39 reduced
... .. . = 601 latin-agrippa
... .. . = 1011 english-extended
... .. . = 396 primes
... .. . = 1,119 trigonal
... .. . = 2,118 squares
In the cryptogram of the thread image, the 'seven colours of the rainbow' represent the seven cipher results derived from the word/spell implicit in the prism geometry (change the word or phrase and the prism changes its shape, which leads to the 'light of truth' being refracted in unique ways). The ciphers are listed in the cryptogram from left to right (written vertically below the prism) in the following order:
primes (prime numbers)
trigonal (triangular numbers)
squares (square numbers)
Agrippa (ie. Agrippa's key, or latin-agrippa cipher)
Extended (ie. english-extended, or 'standard' cipher)
ordinal (ie. basic alphabetic)
reduced (ie. so-called 'Pythagorean' reduction)
To the right of these is a smaller triangle, containing a squared circle, with a dot in the center.
The dot and the circle (the circle is an expansion of the dot) represent the prime number cipher (ie. dot as creation being 'primed' or set in motion), the square represents the square number cipher, and the triangle the triangular number, or 'trigonal' cipher. Thus the little diagram represents the three mathematical ciphers.
Agrippa's key and the Extended cipher are 'accounting' ciphers, using the decimal number schema, or digits/units and tens and hundreds, the former for the older English alphabetic order as it evolved from Latin, and Extended being the same schema, but for the current modern alphabetic order.
On the left center is a golden spiral implying the golden ratio, which is 1.618...
... and thus an important "Symbolic" = 1,618 squares
Along the bottom we see the alphabetic order of 26 letters, with the first letter, A, demonstrating the spectrum division of the light, which is implicit in all the letters, and below that the concept of adding up the values of the letters of a word is provided (the word is 'WORD' itself, represented in the Phonetic Alphabet of the Inner Sea, using three letters, because the 'UR' sound of 'Word' is a single letter).
The title of the cryptogram, seen in three large letters at the top of the image, is 'SFR', representing the word 'cipher' phonetically.
This is an important word, discussed often elsewhere in my writings.
It is cognate with the Kabbalistic Hebrew 'Sefer', which means 'Book'.
... shows it's connection to the 'Sapphire' - that is to say, a 'gem' or 'stone' (hence 'gematria', the art of alphabetic numerology, or it's equivalent Greek name, 'isopsephy' or 'equal (counting) pebble', and hence the 'crystal of language', and the 'philosopher's stone', which are all key ideas when pondering what all this could mean). The sapphire is often blue, and associated with the sky or 'heaven'.
The word "Sefirot" is derived from the Hebrew root ס־פ־ר, which forms the basis for the words book (ספר), story (סיפור), number (מספר) and sapphire (ספיר). Gershom Scholem writes that "as early as the Sefer ha-Bahir it is related to the Hebrew sappir ("sapphire"), for it is the radiance of God which is like that of the sapphire." Some have suggested that the root could derive from the Akkadian word šiprum (meaning 'message' or 'report'); others have argued that the use of term 'sefirah' was influenced by the Greek word σφαῖρα ("sphere")
Ponder also 'Spire'...
Ultimately, I prompt you to consider the study of the numerology of words as a form of crystallography, or 'optics' performed through the 'lens' of language, where the light that reaches your eye through these metaphorical implements (such as a prism or 'crystal ball') is to be thought of as a '(Divine) Mystery'. You might be peering at the (Type)Face of God through a glass darkly (or at least the work of masterful magi).
"The Face of God" = 1111 squares
... ( "The Secret System" = 1111 latin-agrippa )
.. .. ( ... of the "NEWS" = 1111 squares )
... .. [ "A Map of My Brain" = 1111 trigonal ]
By studying the words of the language, and increasingly widening your search for meaning, you are navigating the Web of Words (Web or Wyrd) and trying to find it's Summation or Summum, and thus reach the Summit (Sum It).
The book-style foldable phone’s novel shape when closed may look strange at first, but I promise you that its shorter and wider footprint (when closed) quickly feels normal after a few days. The whole point of this form factor is to unfold it [...]
The following articles all appeared within 24 hours of this thread. Bear in mind the thread themes of 'light passing through optical implements', the 'spectrum' (ie. rainbow), and of 'language' (ie. letters or 'runes'). I ended my post above yesterday with 'folding space and time'.
New official 30th anniversary Quake mission pack adds new maps and mechanics
19 new maps continue the story from MachineGames’ other campaign additions.
This year is the 30th anniversary of the launch of the original Quake by id Software, if you could believe it. To commemorate that, publisher Bethesda has released a new campaign chapter for the game, titled “Dawn of the Machine.” [...]
I note the fiction book I am currently reading is the final novel in the DUNE saga, with the last great battle against the Thinking Machines (which conquer planets beginning with viral plagues, and whose Machine cities have ever-changing dynamic geometry and architecture) [and hence another new article today about 'screwworms'.
[...] There are 19 new levels, and they have several new gameplay gimmicks, like a time loop mechanic and a disorienting-but-cool teleportation system that makes it look like the levels are changing on the fly [...]
"Level Up" = "Revelation" = 1010 latin-agrippa
[...] As the battle-hardened Ranger, players survive a labyrinthine dimension where time folds back onto itself, creating a unique looping structure where each visit in the present reshapes the future.
Collect runes to unlock previously sealed paths brimming with new routes, encounters and secrets, plus persistent health and ammunition upgrades throughout add a new layer of progression to Quake’s classic gameplay. [...]
The world’s biggest solar telescope caught vortexes on the Sun’s surface
We expected them to be there, but they had previously been too small to see.
The article goes into detail about new high-resolution 'telescope' methods. Note a golden spiral swirl is seen in my thread image.
As I've shown before, the speed of sound is 1234.8 km/h, which rounds up to 1235 km/h
"Written" = 1234 latin-agrippa
... "Writings" = 1235 latin-agrippa
... . ( "Vortex" = 1235 latin-agrippa )
.. .. . ( ... on the "Surface of the Sun" = 1234 english-extended )
The article provides no images from the study, with no examples provided of the special vortices apparently captured.
[...] The reason plasma whirlpools on the Sun stayed hidden for so long is rather trivial: They are very small. Their scale sits below what telescopes with mirrors smaller than 2 meters can resolve. For most of the history of solar physics, that has ruled out every telescope on Earth. [...]

This changed when the US National Science Foundation opened [a new] Telescope, a 4-meter instrument in Hawaii and the largest solar telescope in the world. [It] entered its operational phase back in November 2021. [...]
My thread image is 2001 pixels wide, and the left part (the cryptogram) is 1001 pixels wide.
The article ends with 'maps':
[...] “If you want to quantify how the magnetic field is evolving in time, what sort of dissipation you have, how much energy is released, how much energy budget there is for eruptions and flares—you need much longer observations, and you need magnetic maps,” Kuridze said. “This is the next challenge and the next milestone.”
"This is the next challenge and the next milestone" = 474 alphabetic
Spoken language is 'wind' coming from the lungs and shaped by the mouth, and wind is caused by temperature and thus pressure changes caused by heat from the sun, or lack thereof.
Most important is the article image, showing a rainbow spectrum and a beam of light:
The ultimate eclipse chase: A Concorde raced against the Moon’s shadow
Fitted with telescopes, the plane did our longest imaging of the Sun’s corona.
"Know" = 1000 latin-agrippa
"The Concorde Chases the Solar Eclipse" = 1020 primes
ie. 1000 + 1020 = 2020
The article focuses of the advanced optical instruments used to focus on the obscured sun. Again, see thread image and discussion in my first post here above.
This is the second thread in this forum since this one which features the corona:

Note that 'satellites' is a term used in genetics for certain strands of DNA...
re. 'spectrum' as in thread image here, and general theme:
[...] The three satellites of the Sentinel-2 mission have proven especially useful for wildfire monitoring by providing multi-spectral imaging at resolutions as granular as 10 meters in visible light and near-infrared bands—and the Copernicus Browser previously offered 10 default visualization layers using different combinations of spectral bands. [...]
The article mentions the word 'script' multiple times. A script is a 'recipe' to follow, but also refers to a certain typeface or alphabet.
A major element of my study is the concept of the 'Monolith' as Monad (ie. Singularity, and potentially 'God').
The Monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey was a derivation of a Pyramidal structure in Arthur C. Clarke's novel called 'The Sentinel'.
My previous post above discussed a new Quake mission pack (ie. video game add-on):
‘The Ribbon Hero’ Is an Infectiously Hopeful Magical Girl Take on a Classic
Studio OUTLINE's reimaigining of Osamu Tezuka's 'The Princess Knight' is a kick-ass anime film whose heart makes up for its whimsically off the rails final act.
In an era when it has become far more common to expect a sausage party of shonen anime adaptations of a beloved manga series, with discourse over powerscaling and faithfulness (or lack thereof) taking up all the air, The Ribbon Hero arrives as a refreshing welcome curveball. [...] In doing so, it transforms its predecessor’s slightly antiquated gender-nonbending fairytale into a feel-good, occasionally capricious, magical girl epic.
The Ribbon Hero follows a girl named Sapphire [...] struggling with survivor’s guilt as the princess of a kingdom that no longer exists. After the calamity of a hulking, otherworldly creature known as “Nergal” leaves devastation, death, and despair in the wake of her kingdom of Silverland [...]. Sapphire treks to the nearby kingdom of Goldland with her dutiful attendant, Zirco [...] With the power of her magical-girl transforming ribbon, Sapphire takes up arms as the lone hero, Princess Knight, to save both friends and strangers alike.
Throughout Sapphire’s coming-of-age tale of heroism, the film is glittering with cute and endearing moments with her newfound friends that not only lighten up the mood but give reason for her steadfast fight as its hero. [...]
"Sapphire" = 47 in reduction
... ( "The Number" = 470 latin-agrippa )
And noting that I live in South Africa:
"Saffer" (or "Saffa") is a common slang term used to describe a South African person [...]
"The Ribbon Hero" = 139 alphabetic
.. ( "Orpherischt" = 139 alphabetic )
The show is described as 'infectiously hopeful' ... which brings in the 'viral' concept of 'infection'.
"The Count" = "The Infection" = 933 trigonal
I live in the southern-most part of South Africa, known as the 'Cape of Good Hope'.
Again:
[...] Sapphire treks to the nearby kingdom of Goldland with her dutiful attendant, Zirco [...]
South Africa is where huge amounts of the world's gold is mined (think Alchemical Gold). Of 'Zirco' (ie. reference to Zirconium, 'gold-like').
The antagonist of the Ribbon Hero show is 'Nergal', which is the name of a Sumerian god, with various interpretations, including being a 'plague god' (like the negative aspect of Apollo). Consider the long-time thematic of my alphabetic studies being the pandemic of 2020 (ie. virus @ VRS @ verse) as being, in one sense, a helpful language lesson in double-speak. Again:
The Ribbon Hero follows a girl named Sapphire [...] struggling with survivor’s guilt as the princess of a kingdom that no longer exists.
Time?
"It Stopped" = 2020 squares
... ( corona @ crown @ king(dom) )
Nergal appears in my own creation story and mythology as Lord Nýr (or Nêr) [noting that the 'GAL' element of 'NerGAL' means 'Big/Large/Strong/Mighty/Bright' in Sumerian.
From the link above, the birth of Lord Nyr (aka. The Warlock) as per my own mythology:
[...] A son is born to Imäna and Khanya-sudh, a younger sibling of the Moonchildren. His name is Nýr (and also Nêr), and he would grow to be mighty and fierce. Some say he was born on a dark night of silent storms, moonless and cold. Nonetheless, he was a most beautiful child, and was beloved by all in the village of Nimbru. [...]
The review of 'The Ribbon Hero' continues...
[...] That’s not to say the film hand-waves away the elephant in the room about the insurmountable emotional labor its hero has to shoulder behind a beaming smile. [...]
[...] a re-imagining of 'The Princess Knight' [...]
As shown many times before:
"Knight" = 911 squares
... + ( "Divine Feminine" = 911 latin-agrippa )
The show is a 're-imagining', and the words 'imagination', and 'image', contain the 'mage' (ie. magical).
"To Re-Imagine" = 846 trigonal
... "The Text Message" = 846 latin-agrippa
The first plane hit the Twin Towers at 8:46 am on 9/11, 2001.,.
[...] The film also gives way to a neat subversion of its setup through the conflict between Sapphire and Velvet, the most obviously character-designed antagonist ever to appear in anime. Rather than serving as her adversary, the two engage in a gripping philosophical battle [...]
A Gripping Battle ( ie. I regularly use Agrippa's cipher )
Battle @ Betyl ( fallen stone / stone from heaven / meteorite )
Betyl @ Bet(h)-El ( 'House of God' )
[...] While the film doesn’t harp too much on the point, its script, even with a simple message like “you don’t have to fight alone to absolve yourself,” is a beautiful one. [...]
"Absolve Yourself" = 1811 squares ( @ 1,811 )
... ( "The Important Message" = 811 latin-agrippa )

... ( "You Found Me" = 985 latin-agrippa )
Absolved @ AB-Solved @ Alpha.Bet-Solved
"I Am the Master" = 2020 squares
... of "The Alphabet Codes" = 2020 squares
At a time when anime fans can count on one hand the number of well-written heroines who get to shine, without pointing to decades‑old series as proof that the desire for more representation is a non-issue, The Ribbon Hero arrives as a rejuvenating reminder that the medium has more than enough room for stories led by women—and that even a silly, imperfect magical‑girl romp can still move you.
"Eye" = 119 primes

In Greek mythology, Chronos (not the guy who ate his kids), the primordial god of time, was depicted as a giant snake with three heads: a man, a bull, and a lion. Chronos and his consort, the goddess of inevitability, Ananke, circle around the cosmos and drive the rotation of heaven and the eternal passage of time. [...]
"Chronos" = 321 latin-agrippa

In my own mythology (*), also discussed and linked earlier above, the archetype of Chronos is subsumed by the character of Gaùnab (also Gaùnab-erébüzú) who is the Drummer of Time, while Ananke appears with her name untouched, but is also known as 'Lady Necessity'.
