Number 13 is Divinely Feminine and Magical – It’s time to reclaim 13
As we high tail it towards another Friday 13th, I feel compelled to quickly dispel the rumours that the number 13 means bad luck! Collective opinion is that it does mean bad luck and this fearful, malaligned energy darkens the magic of 13. This fear is known as Triskaidekaphobia and it’s everywhere, housing estates, hotels where it simply doesn’t appear! Triskaidekaphobia has led to ridiculous idiocracies like lifts with no number 13 and hotels will no room number 13!
Now is the time to return number 13’s Divine Feminine power and magic, to tell you about what she signifies and means to end all this madness when they happen upon her.
Number 13 is a Girl
In the good old days, before the advent of Christianity, 13 was a girl! 13 is a Divinely Feminine number, which is evident in our annual 13 full moon cycles. And, La Lune is definitely “une femme”; check 13×28=364.
Number 13’s Ancient International Providence
Across the world, the Mayan’s calendar the Tzolk’in, marked time in 13-day periods, known as “trecenas”. The Egyptians were fans of 13, they built their pyramids with nine steps divided into seven nights and six days.
Number 13’s Magical Expression

Have you noticed that a standard deck of cards has 13 in a suit? In tarot card terms, the 13th card is ‘Death’, the meaning concerned with freeing yourself from a past that no longer serves you well and proceeding toward the future; rather positive huh!
Where did the fear of Number 13 come from?
We can point a finger at the misogynistic Christians, because they are responsible for moving from Moon worship to “Sun” (aka son) worship and thus created the Solar calendar. This got rid of the problem of at least one of those pesky feminine 13 moons, and fitted far more comfortably with their superimposed festival calendar.
They proceeded to damn number 13 and make out like she was something nasty, to be feared and evil, their depiction of the Last Supper a case in point.

Number 13 is Coming of Age
In the West, Number 13 is hallowed as the first coming of age, the arrival of puberty and is the age of consent in some countries. I held my daughter’s coming of age party on her 13th Birthday, when I got a circle of elder women she admired and loved to come together and talk to her about the magic and responsibility of becoming a woman. Number 13 is the number of the Great Goddess, Mother Nature, now is the time to give her some love and seem what magic transposes instead.
Friday the 13th was a day of great massacre, The kings of Europe did not like the power that the knights Templer had! Because the knights Templer created banks question, they would move peoples treasures and gold for them, so they ambushed and killed them on Friday the 13th as far as I am aware.
