I hope this is the right forum. I was hoping someone might be able to help me understand the significance of the number nine. I know that the numbers one, three, six, seven, twelve and forty have biblical/spiritual meaning (i.e. forty is a period of cleansing, seven signifies perfection, etc.). I know that the number nine must mean something since novenas are nine days, and we just finished a nine day period of mourning for the pope but I’m not sure what that significance is. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!
