One architectural device Sarah used to illustrate her view of the relationship between the numbers 11 and 56 is her arrangement of the decorative wooden posts that align the exterior railings of the two, third floor balconies above the front porch of the House. This is equally true of the relationship between 777 and 161616. It clearly manifests the value of all three of Sarahs symmetric prime numberswhich starts with the Key to Phi number 13 that invisibly completes the structure of the windows four triangles. Sarah and William had one daughter, Annie Pardee Winchester, who was born on June 15, 1866 and died on July 25, 1866 of marasmus.[6]. No one's sure, but everyone has a story. Exploring the actual history of America's strangest mansion suggests the truth might be stranger than the fiction. Naturally, Sarah knew that we would eventually look up at the magnificent ceiling of her Ballroom. With the exception of the decorative middle panel that supports the 13 globe chandelier, we observe 9 main panels. The answer is that without higher dimensional mathematics, such as the mathematical innovations of William Rowan Hamilton or Sophus Lie, many of the technologies we take for granted from computers, cell phones, to landing robotic space craft on Mars, etc., wouldnt be possible. This house was originally the home of Sarah Winchester, who was the widow of William Wirt Winchester, the gun manufacturing magnate. Panels of electric buttons were used to operate the lights by means of electro-mechanical strikers that caused a spark to ignite the various lamps. In addition to Sarahs brilliance and respectable place in society, there were several factors about New Haven that presented a unique influence on her upbringing. Mrs. Winchester carefully selected two primary numbers to represent her daughters name, i.e. The room was a perfect time capsule, furnished with an organ, couch, dress forms, sewing machine, and paintings. The artwork on the magazines cover featured a crescent moon in its waxing stage. The concept of a forth dimension became an obsession that permeated both the scientific and academic communities of the latter nineteenth century. Another crucial element Escher and Sarah Winchester shared was their understanding of the unifying nature of the mathematical symmetry which forms the basis for all higher dimensional structure. And, we recall that her Glass (mirror) reflects the light of knowledge and wisdom. William died in New Haven, Connecticut on March 7, 1881 of tuberculosis. The Historical Society of Washington, D.C., is a community-supported educational and research organization that collects, interprets, and shares the history of our nation's capital city. To begin, it is undeniably a labyrinth. Her favorite niece and secretary, Marian Marriott, oversaw the removal and sale of all of Sarahs furnishings and personal property. 12 x 49 = 588. German mathematician Georg Bernhard Reimann (1826-1866) realized that the forces of nature might be nothing more than a manifestation of the geometry of space. 777 x 12 = 9,324. It is extraordinary that Stone Age peoples, would be able to build such a sophisticated clock as Stonehenge is, and to locate, it at precisely 13 units from the Blue Stone origin in Wales . Moreover, we have the numbers 11 and 7 standing side-by-side. Instead of pouring her profits back into the company, she funneled them into her house, as an admittedly brilliant way to give her relatives the financial middle finger from across the country. April 3, 1992 . Now that weve had at look at the superficial significance of the Shakespearean windows, lets analyze the matter more deeply. Whatever Sarah Winchester's deepest secrets were, maybe her sense of loss was what truly haunted her. This crucial dynamic of String Theory known as the Modular Function was discovered by another of Sarahs contemporaries, the mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887-1920). For example, a handful of staircases are only a few feet high and have wide steps that rise just a few inches. The posts alternate: one, right-side-up, one, up-side-down, one right-side-up, etc.resulting in 5 right-side-up posts and 6 up-side-down posts. Moreover, the name Winchester appears precisely 27 times in the Shakespearean works. The house had been open for tours for around 90 years at that point, so pretty unlikely. The length of the, hypotenuse drawn from this point to Stonehenge is 12.368. Tours are conducted of both the house and the grounds on those days. There is a staircase that leads nowhere, abruptly halting at the ceiling. 31 x 777 = 24087then, 24 + 87 = 111. There was a vault inside, so they opened that, too (via CSICOP). Sarah, however, wasn't obsessed with building due to fear of being haunted; in fact, most of the anomalies in the house were due to quick repairs made after the 1906 earthquake destroyed much of the house.[3]. Furthermore, she is alluding to Bacons underlying philosophical premise as given in Proverb 25, i.e. Its the stuff our universe is made of. [2] Popular legends, which began during her lifetime, held that she was convinced she was cursed by the spirits of those killed by the Winchester rifle, and the only way to protect herself was to continually add on to her California home. Moreover, with regard to the name William Shakespeare, there are 7 letters in William, and 11 letters in Shakespearehence, 711hence, 72, Sarah (20) Winchester (52). Front Cover of the Crescent. Then, 588 x 121 (11 squared) = 71,148. Sadly, Sarah and William's infant daughter, Annie, died from a mysterious childhood disease in 1866. This passage is an eloquent summation of Bacons theosophical outlook on reincarnation. We multiply: 7 x 12 = 84. Partial collapse left it dangerously unstable, and it was torn down. of Missouri Press, 2010. She was brought back to New Haven and laid to rest in Evergreen Cemetery near her husband and . An important part of the puzzle goes back to Rosicrucian beginnings in ancient Egypt . Moreover, the darkly stained beam has 46 lightly colored vertical rule lines which divide the gauge into 47 evenly spaced segments. Mrs. Winchester regarded everyone who stepped onto her property as a prospective initiate. The present pay is $2.50. See p. 112. Now, lets go to a higher level using the 777 symmetric triplet. If so, how would she have conveyed such a message? Like Rosslyn Chapel, the Winchester House serves as a higher dimensional puzzle. Sure enough, 9 x 13 = 117 (Bacons code number for John Dee). the 47th proposition of Euclids Elements known as the Pythagorean Theorem) and to the name Hiram (Simple Cipher). Established by Mrs. Jane Ellen Winchester and Mrs. Hannah Bennett as a memorial to their son and brother, William Wirt Winchester. We notice that a tiny ball is tightly tucked into the crook of each of Pans staves. Her apparent motive for the move was to live in close proximity to her numerous Pardee relatives, most of whom had come to California during the 1849 Gold Rush, and were scattered from Sacramento to the Bay area. How unlikely was the find? God and Kings is a sci-fi suspense thriller set in ancient Egyptbased on real people and events. Not far away, William attended New Havens Collegiate and Commercial Instituteanother arm of Yale College. [8][9], In the 1920s Mrs Winchester also maintained a houseboat on San Francisco Bay at Burlingame, California, which became known as "Sarah's Ark", as it was reputedly kept there as insurance against her fear of a second great flood, such as the Biblical one experienced by Noah and his family, but a more mundane answer is that many people of her social standing in California at that time had houseboats or yachts. In their book The Templar Revelation, authors Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince point out the rather obscure fact that the Rosicrucian movement was the cause of the Renaissance. This was the Golden Age of Geniusand, of all the geniuses the Renaissance spawned, no one was more influential or as productive as Francis Bacon. Sarah further knew we would then apply the tables of our thoughts to the number 52. 13 therefore manifests the ultimate (invisible) boundary of all the coherent symmetries from which the structure of the universe is formed. See advertisement. Viewed through that lens, perhaps Sarah Winchester started building her house to throw away the family fortune. Bacons legacy seems to be intricately entangled with Sarahs destiny, as demonstrated in the cryptic Winchester goose message contained in the last sentence of Troilus and Cressida. Sarah Winchester/Cause of death. Did Bacon (whose contemporaries referred to as the man who could see through time) truly foresee Sarah Winchester? Nor is there any evidence to support the idea that she was a spiritualist or had any inclination to believe in communication with the deceased. However, she has ingeniously raised the bar by including 13 sub panels with each of the 9 main panels. He was vice president of the, Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, United States, New Haven, New Haven County, Connecticut, United States, Evergreen Cemetery, New Haven, CT, United States, Oliver Winchester, 52nd Lt. Gov. He was buried in Evergreen Cemetery in New Haven. His siblings include: Ann Rebecca Winchester (1835-1864) who married Charles B. Dye; and Hannah Jane Winchester who married Thomas Gray Bennett. 444 (the combined value of Bacons Rossi Crosse seals). In one simple lesson, Sarah has skillfully introduced the initiate to the rudiments of her number system. Since its founding, the Historical Society has published articles about the people and events in the city's past and present. Although there are other Spider-web windows located in other parts of the House this is the final place where Sarah clearly wanted the enlightened initiate to land. Sarah Pardee Winchester, age unknown. The better sort,. John Dees 007 signature as Tubal-Cain, and the traditional Tubal-Cain symbol. Mar 7 1881 - NEW HAVEN,NEW HAVEN,CONNECTICUT,USA, Oliver Fisher Winchester, Jane E. Winchester (born Hope), Hannah Jane Bennett (born Winchester), Oliver F Winchester, Ann Rebecca Dye (born Winchester), Cause of death: Tuberculosis - Mar 7 1881, 1850 - New Haven, New Haven, Connecticut, USA, June 22 1837 - Ville De Baltimore, Maryland, tats-Unis, Oliver FISHER WINCHESTER, Jane Ellen HOPE, Mar 7 1881 - New Haven, Comt De New Haven, Connecticut, tats-Unis, Olivier Fisher WINCHESTER, Jane Ellen HOPE, Hannah Jane WINCHESTER, Ann Rebecca WINCHESTER, a very elegant casKet. Writing in theSmithsonian, historian Pamela Haag says shebecame obsessed with the Winchester Mystery House and spent a good amount of time researching the actual history behind the stories. Like Bacon, Sarahs use of numbers always leads us to a deeper core of meaning. This legend was further exaggerated by John and Mayme Brown, theme park developers, who bought the property with the intention of turning it into an attraction. Its the only circle in the windows design. Then, 924 x 13 = 12012. The Egyptians saw the path to heaven as a 12 step staircase with a magnificent door at the top. There was another vault, like the most depressing and never funny gift-wrapping job ever. It is natures arbitrary template by which all natural structures, from atoms, flowers, trees, seashells and star galaxies comply with specific symmetric parameters. From the beginning of civilization, the geometric value of Phi (and the number 13 in particular) has been used as the basis for all great architectural endeavors. Quite remarkably, the bills design incorporates an extensive spider-web structure which serves as a framework encompassing all of the various components in the overall pattern. Today, the house is open to the public every day except Christmas Day. Throughout the centuries, the Tubal-Cain symbol has employed either a cane shaped like a backward number 7, or a cane with a simple crooked handle. Others say she believed the never-ending construction was staving off her own death. All Rosicrucians have a room or space like this situated (as closely as possible) in the center of their homes. And as we have previously seen, 21 consists of three 7s, or 777. The House was lit with carbide gas lights that were supplied by its own gas manufacturing plant. 1 33 1. Which begs the question who was in charge of whom? And, why would spirits have an inability or need to keep track of time? If warps in space were the cause of natural forces such as electromagnetism and gravity, the structure of space had to conform to a higher dimensional curvature. The Shakespearean Windows. This rational system of numbers is known as the Fibonacci sequence. William was the son of Oliver Fisher Winchester who was Lieutenant Governor of Connecticut and manufacturer of the famous Winchester rifle. Voila, one, dynamic level of the symmetry is revealed. Historian Pamela Haag says from the outside, the house looks impressive but not weird. Thereafter, Sarah refrained from venturing any higher. With the exception of the inscriptions written on the banners, the windows are exact mirror images of each other. These are good people who mean wellbut this is hardly the legacy Sarah wanted to leave to posterity. Adding further to the mysterious features, the prime numbers 7, 11, and 13 are repeatedly displayed in various ways throughout the Housethe number 13 being most prominent. Sure, it's obvious the Winchester company would have been worth a fortune, but you don't know the half of it. However, in order to conceptualize the higher dimensional geometry of the universe, Sarah knew that we would need to step-up to a three dimensional view of the spider-web windowwhich is why the 13th bathroom has six spider-web windows. Second, The Crescent was a periodical magazine of poetry and prose written, under various pseudonyms, by Sarah and her classmates, and published by her alma mater The Young Ladies Collegiate Institute of New Haven, CT. Sarah was also among the first to make use of a showerand elevators, two driven by hydraulics, and a third by electricity. Moreover, Enoch and George were Knights Templar Freemasons. For this reason, the Mayans and the Chinese had 13 month calendars. Since she clearly regarded her House as a living puzzle and a work of architectural art, we are compelled to examine the environment that influenced her views and her work. In fact, she has already done it for us. Moreover, she also knew this would be the initiates first trial or moment of truth. So, we are compelled to either walk away, or stand back and take a truly hard look at the matter. We may well ask what value does higher dimensional mathematics have for us? William Winchester is Notable. Here, she is affirming her Theosophical point of view. B. Architect. And, indeed, Bacon saw himself (at least metaphorically) as an architect. What a practical woman. Then, 84 x 11 = 924. Moreover, Bacon applied the theme of concealment to everything he touchedincluding his own life (the same was equally true of Sarah Winchester). But the primary importance here is that the pair of 16s (standing side-by-side) is a reference to the calendar year 1616. Moreover, Williams full name amounts to 21 letters. Furthermore, she knew we would see that the number 49 simplifies to 13hence, 13 x 777 = 10101 (111). CSICOP adds there are 13 coat hooks in the seance room, 13 drains in the sinks, and 13 stars in the leadlight window Winchester herself designed. Her concept of initiation closely parallels the Masonic and Rosicrucian method of subjecting the initiate to a series of progressive steps or Degrees in which he is forced to develop his powers of intuition and insight. The dimensions are not accidental. But, where are we to find it? 4, 22, 31, 58, 85, 67, 76, 49, 94, 121, 112, 211, or 1111, etc. Additionally, the number 55 (Pythagorean Cipher) matches the name Hiram Abiff. The labyrinth was usually an underground or enclosed maze-like structure consisting of dark, winding stairs and passageways. He was the brother of Anna Rebecca and Hannah Jane Winchester. Thus, the product has to be a variant of 49 (i.e. It is a mansion in San Jose and that was once the home of Sarah Winchester - the widow of William Wirt Winchester (the wealthy treasurer of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company). Astonishingly, the, continuation of this line crosses precisely at the location of the Great Pyramid at, Giza, which had not yet been constructed at the time of the completion of. Staircases have 13 steps, walls have 13 panels, floors have 13 sections. The number 46 (i.e. : Univ. It was Vitruvius who first expounded the virtue of the mathematical value of Phi (the Divine Proportion, Golden Ratio, etc.). Elsewhere about the House, Sarah throws other numbers into the mix, and we begin to see that Winchester numbers, although generally connected to family names, ultimately take on a much deeper meaning. Later his son George C. Pardee followed in his fathers footsteps rising to the office of Governor of California (1903- 1907. Along with Sarahs inclusion of one of Bacons code devises called stops (i.e. As we have seen, he was the mastermind who single-handedly sired the English Renaissance and the Age of Enlightenment that would follow. [citation needed], American heiress of William Wirt Winchester. Tracing the story through letters, scrapbooks, and the journals of the workers who built the house, Ignoffo says there was another motivation behind the constant building: providing jobs. Michio Kaku, Hyperspace, published by Anchor Books DOUBLEDAY, New York, London, Toronto, Sydney, Auckland, 1994. Most of the place just doesn't make sense. There was a lock of her husband's hair, a lock of her daughter's hair, and their obituaries. Courtesy of the Winchester Mystery House. Moreover, like the Pardees, the Winchester family was not lacking in members who were Freemasons. Has the wait been worthwhile? In fairness to the management of the WMH, they try to present Mrs. Winchester in a positive light. He was the son of Oliver Fisher Winchester and Jane Ellen Hope and was born in Boston. In 2017, The Mercury News reported a new general manager overhauled the way things are done there, opening 40 more rooms to the public, including unfinished spaces and cubbyholes created by the haphazard construction. Since there are no true species of the daisy family having as few as 8 petals, it is apparent that Sarah uses the 8 petaled daisy as a device to emphasize the Fibonacci relationship between the numbers 13 and 8. Notice the Masonic metaphor of the number 33 enclosed within the number 11, as it is flanked by the twin, Masonic pillars, i.e. Moreover, like a Masonic lodge the House is emblematic of Solomons Temple. Why?. She headed west, while the leaders of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company flailed about to try to continue the success of their mass-produced rifles. Also, when we take a closer look at the words UNCLASP and TABLES, we realize that in Bacons time the only things to be unclasped were bookssecret booksbooks containing Encryption Codes with an Encryption Table to decipher such codes. The initiate had to successfully find the correct path through the labyrinths numerous pitfalls, obstacles and traps. The rank of Colonel was earned through his participation in the First Corps of Cadets, the organization originally formed as the bodyguard of the governor of Massachusetts. Thus, Riemann devised a new, higher dimensional geometry that demonstrates how parallel lines can intersect, and arcs, rather than straight lines, can be the shortest distance between two points. Sarahs insertion of daisies in the center of the two Sun symbols on the front, wrought iron gates are important because the daisy represents the two essential qualities of the initiate: Innocence and Fidelity. The only difference with Sarahs Sun symbols is that, instead of the usual face in the center, Sarah has inserted the image of an eight petaled daisy (more about the eight petals later). Time could speed up, slow down or stand still. First, his name adds up (in the Pythagorean Cipher) to the number 111 (just like Bacon in the Kaye Cipher). Husband of Sarah Lockwood Winchester (Pardee) Following her death, the home was auctioned to the highest bidder, who then turned it into an attraction for the public; the first tourists walked through the house in February 1923, five months after Winchester died. Francis Bacons Coat of Arms with crescent moon brand on the boar at the top, Because it is shaped like the Roman Numeral 100 (Lunate Sigma), Bacon used the crescent moon as another devise to represent his nameand we are reminded of Bacons words in Sonnet 111: Thence comes it that my name receives a brand.. He was the son of Oliver Fisher Winchester and Jane Ellen Hope and was born in Boston. This product can then be partitioned as 45 76, which, when combined becomes 121 (11 squared), or, it can be partitioned (from the inside-out) as 57 46, which, when combined equates to 103 (13). These are not mere geometric designs intersecting a pane of glass, rather these are to be viewed as living strands of fibrous string which not only connect the individual pieces of glass, but also, through the dynamics of gauge symmetry, unify all things into a complete whole. Although no mention has ever surfaced as to any specific guidelines or special instructions by which Mr. Lieb would select a buyer for the property, one gets the distinct impression that Sarah wanted the House to stand intact and perpetually preserved and so it does. Notice that, in the center, the value of 12 has doubled to 24. Entering the Ballroom, we notice a beautiful parquet floor with light and dark squares bearing a striking resemblance to the checkered mosaic floors of Masonic lodge rooms. In 1850, William was living with his parents and siblings in New Haven, Connecticut. The same symmetries we find in Ramanujans work, culminating in the E (8) x E (8) symmetry, also seem to conform to the symmetries that rule over the Winchester model. [1], Sarah Winchester is best known for using her vast fortune to continue construction on the Winchester mansion in San Jose, California, for 22 years. Three dimensional objects such as cubes, spheres and pyramids would seem impossible because our limited perception would only permit us to observe these objects as two dimensional squares, circles and triangles. As a result, Sarah was raised and educated in an environment ripe with Freemasonic and Rosicrucian philosophy. As we shall see in Sarahs Ballroom, sevens are displayed in a more profound way. Also, 13 and 31 possess the unique quality of generating (reverse) palindromic twins when they are squared, i.e. She left a will written in thirteen sections, which she signed thirteen times. The pair wed in 1862 and began to build a life for themselves in Connecticut. Therefore, like the folklore, the term mystery should be put aside and replaced with the more appropriate term puzzle. Like the Chartres Cathedral in France , or Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland , Sarahs architectural legacy is an artful puzzle. William's wife, Sarah, moved to San Jose, California, where she began building a chaotic mansion now known as the Winchester Mystery House with her inheritance. We further recall how Bacon designed the text so that the word shake, the 46th word from the beginning of the Psalm is connected to the word spear, the 47th word from the Psalms end, by exactly 111 words. They both made use of architectural devices and features that defy the conventions of ordinary three-dimensional space. Unquestionably, for many people, the folklore is entertainingbut it is a complete fabrication. Lets start with the allegations about Sarah and Adam Coons. Thus, Sarah induces us to multiply 11 x 7. Its no secret that the backside of the U.S. One Dollar Bill is a masterpiece of Masonic code and symbolism. By the time Sarah Winchester died of heart failure in 1922, at the ripe age of 82-years-old, her eccentric estate had 160 rooms, 2,000 . Sarah further knew that we would multiply 49 x 777, which equates to 38073. Clearly, Mrs. Winchester isnt whimsically playing around with these particular passages from Shakespeare. The Private Pavilion at Yale New Haven Hospital was then renamed in his honour. Naturally, when the number 7, or any variant of that number is multiplied by 777, the result (through the Winchester algorithm) will always be 444. Legacy [ edit] In February 1923, five months after Winchester's death, the house was opened to the public, with Mayme Brown serving as the first tour guide. He was the son of Oliver Fisher Winchester who manufactured and marketed the first Winchester repeating rifle. A service was held in Palo Alto, California, and her remains lay at Alta Mesa Cemetery until they were transferred, along with those of her sister, to New Haven, Connecticut. By the time the dust settled, around 3,000 people were dead and 225,000 (according to the USGS, more than half the city's population) were homeless. above-ground portion of the Wirt family vault is a granite monument to William Wirt that measures eight feet square at the base with a roughly twelve . Others say she was reaching out to those who met a grisly end at the barrel of a Winchester rifle, while still others say she spent time talking to her husband. Without symmetry, the universe and everything in it would not be coherentrather it would be chaotic. There are iron bars on some of the interior windows, but those were once exterior windows. Her inheritance included $20 million ($561.6million in 2021) as well as a 50% holding in the Winchester Repeating Arms Company, which made her one of the wealthiest women in the world at the time. the series values become constant values. Naturally, Sarah is making use the latter form. Additionally, Sarah covered the walls of her bedroom with special wallpaper displaying the Triquetra symbol. Whenever I make mention of Sarah Winchester the typical response I get from people is Oh yeahwasnt she the crazy lady who built that weird house because she was afraid the spirits would kill her? Many of these people have never been to the Winchester House. Moreover, Riemanns new view predicted the existence of a forth spatial dimension. Tragedy struck quickly when their only child, Annie, died in infancy in 1866. Originally, Sarahs Sanctum Sanctorum was painted entirely blue. Sarah has intentionally shaded each ball so as to give it a three dimensional effect. The codes used by Bacon were generally a mixture of five different tables: Simple Cipher, Kaye Cipher, Reverse Cipher, Short Cipher and the Pythagorean Cipher. So, her middle name, Lockwood adds up to 25, which then simplifies to 7. 11. Tragedy struck quickly when their only child, Annie, died in infancy in 1866. The couple had one known child, Annie Pardee Winchester, born June 15, 1866, who died 6 weeks later on July 25 from marasmus[citation needed]. If Sarahs Spider-web is also a higher dimensional model for the structure of the universe, it is quite consistent with the fundamental workings of String Theory as 24 governs the precise number of ways the vibrating String can stretch, bend and contract. Sarah and William were married on September 30, 1862. Naturally, Sarah was in good company with regard to expressing the new view. First, like Bacons play on the letters L, L, L in Loves Labours Lost11, 11, 11 combined, becomes the number 33. 12. At 5:12 a.m. on April 18, 1906, the San Francisco Bay Area was rocked by a major earthquake. It is the lunar number because there are always 13 full moons in a year.
