33

Well, since 33 is right around the corner, meaning I will be 33 years old, I thought I would do a little tribute to 33. Cause it's cool, or something. 

First, a wikilink to 33 (the number, not the year and not the disambiguation). Which isn't funny if you've never been a wiki-ite. Anywho, so you don't have to read the whole wikipagia on 33, I'll give you the highlights. I will be 33 and that's about it. No, seriously.

• The intellectual cycle, one of three fundamental biorhythm cycles is 33 days long. The intellectual cycle regulates intelligence, logic, mental reaction, alertness, sense of direction, decision-making, judgment, power of deduction, memory, and ambition.

• According to R. Allendy, "this number shows the free activity of the being in the organization of the world. It shows the free creature related to the plans of the Creator by links of justice and love or by the providential intermediaries". This number is seen thus connected to the Karma - 3 + 3 = 6.
