A note from your resident kabbalist

Now, I'm not usually superstitious or anything (::cough::), but when the Dow drops by 777 points on Erev Rosh Ha'Shana, that might be worth noticing.

Just sayin'.

at the risk of sounding ignorant, what does this mean?

You're not the only one noticing.

I've been meaning to ask if you know of any good references that talk about Teshuvah. I have a couple of phil profs that talk about it a lot, the turn/return, although they mean it moreso in a secular sense with deeply spiritual undercurrents.

I'm wondering if it has double meaning, and if there is a particularly good sources to read more about it.

When I was in college, I used to go to the "777 laundromat" in Lawrence, KS and contemplate God while smelling detergent :)

We had a little discussion about that today as well.
