Exploring the Rule of Three
The number 3 has powerful significance in spiritual practices, in mathematics, in psychology, even in business. I came across a reference to the “Rule of Three” in a book on magical practices, which is where I first began this exploration. I plan to write on this a bit more, exploring other aspects of the idea. The Rule of Three is a simple rule – that whatever you send out into the universe (through your actions, behaviors, thoughts) will return to you three-fold…or in some cases it is phrased that it will return to you “three times three”. There is a poem, which I’ve tweaked a bit, and share with you here: Ever mind the Rule of Three Three times thy gifts return to thee This lesson well thou needs must learn Thy wilt be blessed, but first do earn. This is a wonderful poem to keep in mind, even going so far as to create a plaque or a framed version, stitching it onto a pillow, silk-screening it onto a t-shirt….whatever works
