this is a quote from the secret number twelve he rights In the book
“The Secret of the Number Twelve” hundreds of examples of twelve year cycles, affected by Jupiter’s travel, that end with destined changes
that are remembered for a long time, affecting not only the life of individuals but also the history of institutions, states and sometimes even the
entire human race. Since exact time indicators are necessary in order to conduct this kind of research, while writing the book the majority of
examples I described came from present times, being the ones easiest to get hold of as well as easiest to substantiate. Now, after almost one year has
passed since I published the English version of my book, and not being bound by any deadlines, I was able to concentrate more on researching
historical periods or better I was able to find out more details in order to confirm my own theory. Last time I wrote about a case, 2x12 decisive
years for strengthening the papacy, while today I’ll elaborate on two more examples that refer to religious events. We all know that Christianity,
at the time of the Roman Empire, was unfavorable to the point that Christians were even murdered.
Everything changed in the year 313, when the Emperor Constantine issues the Edict of Milan which gives everyone freedom to practice any faith they
chose openly, which would mean, Christianity as well. In addition, Constantine himself becomes a Christian, allegedly after a prophecy, a vision.
Twelve years go by and in 325 Constantine convokes in Nicaea the first ecumenical (general) council, which gathered every Church, in order to condemn
the Arian teachings, but also to set certain Church dogmas. This was indeed a great and important change in a period of 12 years when Christianity
becomes a universal religion from a banned “sect”. At the Council of Nicaea, the exact date of the Christian Passover, known as Easter, was
determined. Especially interesting to mention is the fact that the Nicene Creed, adopted by every Christian Church, was written in 12 simple guiding
principles. However, the unity of the Church did not last till long, early in the Middle Ages there were confrontations over the true religious
teachings. One of the greatest conflicts happened towards the end of the Middle Ages, when Protestantism span through Europe, forming new Christian
churches (it seems that this “branching” has not ended to this day). Pertaining to the number 12 I lead you to France where, in 1572, Catherine de
Medici organized a horrifying massacre of the French Protestants, the Huguenots, known as Bartholomew’s Day Massacre, where more than ten thousands
of people died. Catherine de Medici was not for the most part interested in religious conflicts but instead her prime interest was keeping her own
family at the royal throne. Already in 1560 she became regent to her under aged son Charles IX and since than she has had a decisive political
influence. Nevertheless, her position was very vulnerable, so she tried to keep it by maneuvering between different social and also religious groups
that were intertwined at the time. It is interesting that just a couple of days prior to Bartholomew’s night Catherine married her daughter
Marguerite to one of the leaders of the Huguenots, Henry IV of Navarre, trying to reconcile France under her ruling. However, due to the tense
situation over the attempt at Gaspard de Coligny’s life, who was a respectable Huguenot, soon, almost over night, she stepped over to the radical
Catholics side, arranged the infamous Protestants’ massacres and till this day is remembered as one of the worst women in history. We can conclude
here that 12 years (1560-1572) were enough to ensure Catherine de Medici’s spot in history as well as permanent recollection that affected the
religious life, not only in France but also much further.
