Most of the red pages with numbers translate to 'red and green'. I wrote a email to gotterdammerung asking for a hint as to what the numbers meant. In it I asked if it had something to do with duality since red and green are on the opposite of the color wheel and this was the reply I received:

"If you were to bake a cake and yet focused solely on only one or, two ingredients, while negating the others, how would that cake turn out?
Why ask for a hint when you have the recipe right in front of you?"

Interesting post reply. There are 4 pages of numbers (code/cipher): The first and second were different - 3 and 4 were the exact same.

/cvm/red
/rojo_y_verde/red_ (red and green in Spanish)
/rouge_et_vert/_red_ (red and green in French)
/rot_und_grun/r-e-d (red and green in German)

I haven't been able to make anything out of the two number codes but will post them for others to work on if anyone wants.

Don't know what to make of this. So far, the most interesting to me has been you (HappyPhantom) and the dialog with Hierophant.

golden ratio

Not to further convolute anything, but I was thinking that the symbol from the tarot that was identified as 'Jupiter' could also possibly be the lower-case symbol 'Phi' That would be indicative of the 'golden ratio,' a property which is heavily tied to the historical masons. Just a thought.

Heh, thanks. It's kinda embarrassing admitting some things that I know lots of people are reading, but what the heck. I have gained a few insights and felt better the past week or two. Hierophant has a lot of interesting things to say and the questions I get are great.

Spanish
French
German
I dunno why I have a nagging feeling that's important.

Regress

the new link on the "what is bespoke" page is "regress" it takes you to page flashing a pattern of numbers, the pattern is: 11 24 7 20 3 12 25 8 16 17 5 13 21 9 10 18 1 14 22 23 6 19 2 15

Hmmm...since the numbers don't exceed 26, maybe it has something to do with the alphabet? Like each number represents a letter in the alphabet? 1 - A, 2 - B, 3 - C, etc. Idk.

Do the two new pages coincide with one another?

Equating the numbers to letters yields:

Anagram?

Well if you take the difference in the numbers and put them down you come up with this.

13 17 13 17 9 13 17 8 1 12 8 8 12 1 8 17 13 8 1 17 13 17 13

Now when I look up the first part, 13, 17 , 13, 17 I get a bible reference of how :

" so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.

18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[a] That number is 666."

Who knows, though.

It's also almost a palindrome....
