Hi, Just watching the Morning News (as a breakfast digestif!). The commentator was talking about the number and naming of tropical storms.
He said the newest forming storm 'Wilma' ties the national record of 21 storms in a single season. That record was set in 1933. Apparently the National Weather Bureau does not use any letters after 'W' (wonder why?) and therefore if there is another storm after 'Wilma', they will revert to the Greek alphabet and begin again with Alpha. In the history of the Weather Bureau this would be precedented.
I could not help but notice the appparent correlations with Tarot's Major Arcana:
> 21 storms as the maximum record in a year (completions /maximum possibilities preceded by change)
> Afterwards the 22nd storm would be called Alpha (returning to the Source or from Alpha to Omega to Alpha)
Aloha,
