Unless you\u2019ve been asleep under a rock lately, I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve heard about Amy Winehouse\u2019s passing and her entry into the exclusive 27 club of gifted musicians who all died at that same magical age.<\/p>\n
I say magical because as it turns out the number 27 is quite a special number.
\n
\n27 forms a perfect cube (3x3x3); it\u2019s the numerological number of saints and enlightened beings; J. Boehme calls it \u201cThe Death;\u201d Alfred Weysen refers to 27 as \u201cThe divine Light;\u201d Chaldean numerology experts state that 27 gives the highest siddhi (spiritual gift) of supreme knowledge; Linda Goodman defines it as \u201ccreative faculties that have sown good seeds which are certain to reap a rich harvest;\u201d Mozart composed 27 concertos; and there are 27 books in the new testament of the bible. <\/p>\n
Chaldean numerology experts state that 27 gives the highest siddhi (Sanskrit for spiritual perfection) of supreme knowledge.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
27 also breaks down to the number 9, which stands for fulfillment, completion, and transition to the next cycle of development.<\/p>\n
Interesting, huh?<\/p>\n
Well, here\u2019s one more fascinating morsel for you to chew on that I\u2019m willing to bet none of you have heard of before: The planet Uranus has 27 moons. <\/p>\n
And that, dear readers, is the focus of this article. Turns out the Uranus factor is a common denominator, besides the more obvious musical link, that joins each and every member of the 27 club to one another\u2014though they probably would not care to be linked together in any matter at all. <\/p>\n
That\u2019s because to be under Uranus\u2019 spell means you express yourself as a unique individual, a freak even, a genius in some regard, and you are unlike any other who came before you. <\/p>\n
Intuitively you\u2019re plugged in, you march to your own drum, you rebel against authority, and though you may experience much difficulty and even abandonment in life, one day you may be remembered for your unique self, and may perhaps even be celebrated after death, once time and everyone on the planet catches up with you. Such is the flavor of Uranus and each of these unique artists embody it and have died shockingly quick, another Uranus trait.<\/p>\n
It’s a little known fact that the planet Uranus has 27 moons.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Curt Cobain suffered from abandonment issues early on in childhood after his parents\u2019 divorce. Because he was a sensitive Pisces and extremely susceptible to the energy of his environment, the separation formed a lasting negative imprint on his psyche that he could never overcome. He became quite the rebel in school and even declared himself gay, when he wasn\u2019t, just to tick off the homophobes! Curt became known as Generation X\u2019s poster boy and enjoyed breakthrough success in the early nineties with his Grunge band, Nirvana. It was a constant thorn in his side to have the media misunderstand his lyrics, to not get him <\/em>as an artist. Of course, it\u2019s never easy for a member of the 27 club to be understood. Sadly, Cobain died shockingly, from a gunshot to the head, but became even more famous after his death.<\/p>\n
Jim Morrison is another example of an artist under the influence of Uranus. His I.Q. was 149–genius level and everything he read, by all accounts, was offbeat. When The Doors <\/em>were asked to perform on The Ed Sullivan Show, Morrison was asked to change the lyrics of \u201cGirl we couldn\u2019t get much higher,\u201d to \u201cGirl we couldn\u2019t get much better.\u201d During the performance, Jim kept the original lyrics and was told by Sullivan he\u2019d never be invited back. Morrison replied, \u201cI was already on The Ed Sullivan Show,\u201d a rebellious retort that angered Sullivan even more. In Morrison\u2019s formative years, at the age of four, he witnessed a shocking car accident on an Indian reservation. It was a violent image that stuck with him throughout his life, and influenced his thinking and his music. Morrison was found dead in his bathtub after an apparent drug overdose that was ruled a heart attack.<\/p>\n

Janis Joplin, labeled The Queen of Psychedelic Soul, was called a \u201cfreak\u201d in school and described herself as a misfit. A campus newspaper in Texas wrote an article, early on in her career, that was titled, \u201cShe dares to be different!\u201d Joplin befriended other outcasts whose musical tastes influenced her to become a singer. She died of a heroin overdose.<\/p>\n
Brian Jones, a founding member of The Rolling Stones, introduced unusual instruments (the Sitar and Marimba) into the band. According to Dick Hattrell, a childhood friend: “He was a rebel without a cause, but when examinations came he was brilliant.\u201d Jones was an outsider in the band from the beginning , and was eventually kicked out of The Rolling Stones. He died one month later when he was found dead in his pool.<\/p>\n
And lastly, let\u2019s not forget Amy Winehouse, whose recent death made headline news this past week. She was a trailblazer, blending the old and the new together, and was known for her eclectic mix of genres. The lyrics in her most famous song illustrate her rebellious streak. \u201cThey try to make me go to rehab, but I say\u2026no, no, no.\u201d Sadly, she was found dead in her home, the cause yet to be determined. <\/p>\n
The list goes on, while my own attention span grows short. So, let\u2019s conclude here by wishing the members of the prestigious 27 club more happiness in their afterlife than they were capable of achieving here on earth, and let\u2019s hope the club refuses any more membership!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
