Thought 101: The Occult Properties of 9

Now you see

me, now you

don't:

9 + 1 = 10 ⇢ 1 + 0 = 1

9 + 2 = 11 ⇢ 1 + 1 = 2

9 + 3 = 12 ⇢ 1 + 2 = 3

...

9 x 2 = 18 ⇢ 1 + 8 = 9

9 x 3 = 27 ⇢ 2 + 7 = 9

9 x 4 = 36 ⇢ 3 + 6 = 9

...

In addition:

9 ⇢ 18 ⇢ 666

(18 being 

equivalent

to Adolf Hitler,

the 1st and the 8th

letters of the alphabet.)
