12 - the Duodecad, the zodiac’s wheel
the twelvefold order of the cosmos.
there are precisely 12 numbers (or 13 if counting 360 itself) that divide 360 into whole integers when considering its proper divisors (excluding 360 itself in some contexts, but including 1 as the unity from which it springs).
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18.
forming a perfect circle of ratios.
The ways to divide 360 into whole numbers (i.e., the number of equal parts) are:
- 360 ÷ 1 = 360
- 360 ÷ 2 = 180
- 360 ÷ 3 = 120
- 360 ÷ 4 = 90
- 360 ÷ 5 = 72
- 360 ÷ 6 = 60
- 360 ÷ 8 = 45
- 360 ÷ 9 = 40
- 360 ÷ 10 = 36
- 360 ÷ 12 = 30
- 360 ÷ 15 = 24
- 360 ÷ 18 = 20
- ———————
- 360 ÷ 20 = 18
- 360 ÷ 24 = 15
- 360 ÷ 30 = 12
- 360 ÷ 36 = 10
- 360 ÷ 40 = 9
- 360 ÷ 45 = 8
- 360 ÷ 60 = 6
- 360 ÷ 72 = 5
- 360 ÷ 90 = 4
- 360 ÷ 120 = 3
- 360 ÷ 180 = 2
- 360 ÷ 360 = 1
Add the 12 numbers….
The total sum is 93.
In Crowley’s system, 93 is the numeric value of Thelema (Will) and Agape (Love) in Greek Gematria
9+3 = 12 = 3
Reduction to a Single Digit = 3.
The Triad
The 12 is the Duodecad, the number of cosmic order—3 (spirit) × 4 (matter),

- 18
- 20 - 20 digits = fingers and toes, the body’s magical extremities
- 24 - 24 elders around the Throne in Revelation. 12 doubled. 24 hours in a day. Day and Night. In Solomonic traditions, 24 spirits form the innermost circle around the King or Magus. Day/Night Polarity of the Zodiac
- 30 - 30 degrees per zodiac sign • 30 Aethyrs in Enochian magick — the full vertical path of initiation
- 40 - days in the wilderness. 40 is the number of trial and purification40 days of rain (Noah) • 40 years in the wilderness (Moses) • 40 days of fasting (Jesus, Elijah) • In alchemy, the stage of calcination can last “40 turns of the stars” - 40 Minor Arcana (56 including court cards) (36 excluding aces)
- 45 (36 divided by 8)
- 60 - base-60 mathematics of Sumerian star-lore.
Use one for fix stars?
One for Alchemical stages? (maybe 20?)
