TWOSDAY ORIGIN & HISTORY
TWOSDAY is celebrated on the 22nd Day of the 2nd Month in the Year 2022, which falls on the 2nd day of the work week!
What is TWOSDAY Tuesday?
Well, it’s actually an ordinary day on a Tuesday except that this Tuesday happens to fall on the date February 2nd, 2022 which is 2-22-22. Astrologers like to call this a lucky day.
The date 2-22-22 can be written backward as 22-22-2 and is still read the same.
If you’re in the part of the world that writes out the day first before the month like in the UK, you would have 22.02.2022 which is still a palindrome date β where you can read it from both ends.
A palindrome is a series of numbers or letters that reads the same whether you’re going forward or backward. Some example dates would be 12-11-21, 12-22-21, 09-22-2290, or 10-02-2001.
The first palindromes were found as graffiti at Herculaneum, an ancient city in Campania, Italy that was buried in the aftermath of Mount Vesuvius’ eruption in 79 AD. They were also found in ancient Greek and Sanskrit too. The oldest Roman one is written in Latin: sator arepo tenet opera rotas which can be translated as either βThe sower Arepo leads with his hand the plough” or “wheels with effort.β
Is your head spinning yet? It’s not only a palindrome (read the same from the left or right horizontally) but it’s also an ambigram (read the same whether it’s right side up or upside-down vertically)
Two hundred years later we’ll have 2-22-2222 BUT this falls on a Friday and isn’t nearly as exciting. So you see a TWOSDAY Tuesday is a very rare event.
TWOSDAY Tuesday in Numerology
The number 2 is often connected with heightened intuition, sensitivity, strength, and power that results from the association, cooperation, love, harmony, and communication through relationships. The number 22 is even more powerful in all of the aforementioned things. Two is understood to be a master number when it comes to numerology, so a date with this many twos has some chart toppin’ spiritual significance.
Meanwhile, the number 222 is considered a magical angel number representing a fresh start so powerful it’s used to shape our lives and represents where someone is meant to be at this moment. When numerologists or fans of numerology wish to see if they’re on the right path laid out for them, oftentimes the angel number is what they look for.
TWOSDAY has six TWOs making it easier to move past tougher times through kindness, approval, and understanding from others. And don’t forget that this TWOSDAY falls on an actual Tuesday making enthusiasts even more excited to harness the power of two sets of angel numbers.
If all of this intrigues you, there’s an essay entitled THE 45 OR THE NINE which expounds that every man is Adam or ΧΧΧ and is numbered as 45 … which causes them to remain The Nine.
TWOSDAY Tuesday in Astrology
On this date, both the sun and the planet Jupiter will be crossing through Pisces, a water sign, while the moon travels through the fixed water sign of Scorpio.
The moon being in Scorpio shows challenging times up ahead, but your emotional passion can help turn the tides of the test laid out before you.
Jupiter being in Pisces is said to be a golden opportunity to achieve your hopes, desires, wishes, and dreams. The fact that the sun is also here means the entire day of TWOSDAY radiates through your particular goals and pursuits. And that’s probably a good thing.

FIVE Fun Facts you never knew relating to TWOSDAY
- Some think that Tuesday is named because they think it’s the second day of the week. Actually, it’s the third day of the week and the name Tuesday originates from the Middle English during medieval Europe when weekdays were named after the gods at that time. The day was called Tiwesdag after the Anglo-Saxon god of war Tiu, also known to the Vikings as Tyr, or simply for the god for law and justice Tiw.The Romans named their third day after their god of war … Mars. So that’s why all romantic languages like Spanish, French, and Italian have similar names for Tuesday: Martes, Mardi, and Martedi.
- A Tuesday becomes a Twosday when it falls on either the 2nd of the month or the 22nd of the month.
- The word “hundred” means 120 and not 100. It’s actually derived from the Old Norse word “hundrath”.
- The Pythagoras’ Constant is the square root of 2 (1.41) and is the first irrational number to be discovered. But did you know that Babylonian mathematicians discovered his famous theory 1,000 years before he did!
- You’ve heard of the number Pi. It’s the ratio between the circumference of a circle to its diameter and is irrational because it can’t be written as a fraction and as a decimal β never repeats and never ends. But did you know there’s an official Pi Day celebrated on March 14th or 3/14? Read the short but fascinating essay on the Seven Digits of Pi or 3.141592

Why we LπVE TWOSDAY
I used to be a numismatist when I was younger and was always fascinated with numbers and coins. With Abraham Lincoln on the penny and John F Kennedy on the half dollar, some say that numerology connects the two presidents. Consider this:
-
SIX 6
Both assassinations take place on the same day of the week β Friday.
-
SEVEN 7
Number of letters in both Kennedy and Lincoln’s last names.
-
FIFTEEN 15
Number of letters in both assassinating assailants’ names.
-
SIXTY 60
Lincoln was elected in 1860 while Kennedy was elected in 1960.
