11-11 Day. 11 is the Number of Wisdom. A MASTER NUMBER.

11 + 11 = Master Number 22. 22 is a strange & powerful Master Number of the Tower of Babel/22. The Tower is a dire symbol.

THE TOWER - The TAROT Card & Symbol - Gnostic MAGDALENE & HELEN The tower is a dire symbol, "wickedness and wrongdoings are synonyms for tower" The word tower meant woefulness, wickedness, wrongdoing, a prison, associated with prostitution, a watchtower of war, a Tower of Babel, the fall of man itself!

1. The Tower is associated with the Gnostic Helen being a pr******te, this is the Tower as the symbol of wickedness: According to an account by the Church father Ireneus, who refers to his turn to Justin Martyr, Simon took Helen from a brother in Tyre. She seems to have been greatly referred by Simon Magus followers as a "holy pr******te", "a fallen Sophia" and "Luna". Pseudo-Clement says of this Helen, who in the view of Simon's followers was an incarnation of Helen of Troy:"....WAS IN A TOWER, a large crowed gathered to see her and surrounding the TOWER on all sides. But is seemed to all the people that she showed herself to the crowd from every window." Pseudo-Clement: Recognit. 11 12"

2. The Tower is a prison in the grail story Joseph of Arimethea written by de Borron.

3. The Tower is the symbol of destruction in the Tarot. Papus says it is the fall of man into the material world. Waite says it is a symbol of destruction, divorce, catastrophe, false interpretation and the Tower is the chastisement of pride and the intellect overwhelmed in the attempt to pe*****te the Mystery of God. Meaning It is the symbol of being struck down by God. It is a really terrible omen card.

4. The Tower is a seductive symbol in Jungian psychology: "A further parallel to the seductive pr******te is to be found in the motif of the woman in the tower. Siegmund Hurwitz (Dr. Hurwitz is in the inner-most circle of C.G. Jung's Zurich school)

5. The most famous Tower of them all, the Tower of Babel. Mans desire to build a tower to heaven. The Tower of Babel fell, and the result was the confusion of tongues and languages. Again the symbol of man's attempt to reach God and God striking man back down. A dire symbol of foolish pride.

There is the one Gnostic Mandadean text on Magdalene and Babel:

"In the Name of Great Life, may hallowed Light be glorified. MIRYAI am I, of the Kings of Babel, a daughter of Jerusalem"
Meaning she is ascended from the line of the Kings of Babel, where the Tower was built. Syria is where the Mandaean cult was located at her time & Atargatis is the Syrian Goddess & she has a Tower as a Crown. This is where the Tower references & her came from.
