Another year is nearly completed, and what a year it was! Like 2018 and 2019 before it, 2020 concludes at the end of the 12th month, and, fittingly, 12 is the number of completion in numerology. Made up of two digits, 12 marries the perfection and independence of 1 with the diplomacy and partnership of 2. With 12 months and 12 lunations of the moon in a year, 12 signs in the Western and Chinese zodiacs, 12 hours in the a.m. and 12 in the p.m., this number is one of incredible significance to the world and to the East End.
