Lemurian Fundamentals: Numogrammatic Analysis of the Rise of Gamestop

GAMESTOP = AQ-168 = VEXSYS.

NOTE: NONE OF THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN AS FINANCIAL ADVICE

Is Gamestop’s meteoric rise hyperstitional? With the hype surrounding r/wallstreetbets recent challenging of the hedge fund elite through $GME, many Lemurian-adjacent thinkers have framed it in terms of hyperstition. While this might be true, there is very little technical analysis of the situation occuring and most, if not all, thinkers have left out one of the most important part of hyperstition: the numogram. If you’ve read my Time-Sorcery Manual or the definition of hyperstition on the old blog, you’ll hopefully remember that hyperstition has three main components: numogram, mythos, and unbelief. Only with all three of these can something be called a hyperstition. By grounding our classification of an event in a technical understanding of the three aspects of hyperstition, we can learn more about the situation as well as about how hyperstition manifests in reality.

The conversation up to this point has been focused on the aspect of hyperstition known as positive unbelief and grappling with this mechanism’s manifestation in this specific situation as well as in the marketplace more generally. While this aspect is important to understand since it is through the energy of hype that something can actually occur, it’s by far the easiest to see and measure. Hype can be measured in likes, dollars, views, or reactions. It’s easily quantifiable, but that doesn’t make it more important. However, finding the thread of the numogram hidden behind the situation is not something everyone is skilled at (yet). This is the job of the numogrammaticist.

Since the positive unbelief aspect is relatively straightforward, I will start there and we can work our way backwards. If you’re unfamiliar with the situation I’m talking about, here’s an overview (you can find a more detailed explanation here): a hedge fund manager talked shit about retail investors on TV and made fun of them for taking a long position on Gamestop stock, $GME. Those retail investors (members of r/wallstreetbets, specifically) took it personally. In response, the retail investors decided to screw with all hedge funds shorting $GME by buying deep into it, driving up the price. At this point in time, it has continued to go up (in after-hours trading it was at $333) as more and more hype has been generated by retail investors trying to get in on the gains and screw over the rich fat cats (and maybe pay off some debt, too). Now that it has exploded in popularity and everyone is talking about it, we may see it get even larger.

The “hype” part of this seems obvious. People who were members of a specific community felt slighted and decided to get together to do something about it. However, the actual manipulation of the market isn’t centralized, so for now it’s not illegal at all. The only thing driving this process is multiple individuals essentially saying “Fuck it!” and dropping thousands of dollars on $GME, their reasons for doing so as diverse as the people involved. Perhaps the only thing they all share is the singular goal of making a fat stack of cash when the options close out at ridiculous levels. It doesn’t really matter, because the ball is rolling now, and the only thing that will stop that inertia is the completion of the circuit.

The second aspect of hyperstition is mythos, characterized by artificial carriers of signal that intensify uncertainty and resist “one-size fits all” narrative framings. If you’ve ever tried to look up the names of authors on the ccru site or the hyperstition blog, you’ve likely discovered that some of them seem not to exist outside of the few pieces written under their name. This is because those people are hyperstitional carriers who may not have ever “really” existed. But the question of their existence is irrelevant as long as the signal is clear, and in many of those cases it comes through clear as day.

So, what is the carrier of this situation? There is no obviously fake (in the sense of non-existent) person or identity who we can attribute the happenings of this situation to, so we have to look deeper. I would say that the retail investor, or more specifically the assemblage that is r/wallstreetbets is the carrier. This is a fomentation of the battle between the professional financial advisor (the hedge fund manager, the analyst, the guy who goes on CNBC) against the girl trading on Robinhood in her underwear. Hedge fund managers have always looked down upon retail investors because part of their identity complex requires normal people to think that smart investing would be out of their reach without a hedge fund. But r/wallstreetbets completely turns that argument on its head: you can successfully run a short squeeze with nothing but a few memes and some hype.

Every time a retail investor buys a share of $GME, they’re playing into the hype and bolstering the artificial category that is “retail investor” or “r/wallstreetbets”, furthering the conflict (and driving the price even higher). Due to its decentralized nature, you can’t pin down either group to a few particular people, even if you could make an example out of a few of them. If r/wallstreetbets goes down, they’ll just move somewhere else, and even if nobody ever talks about it again, everyone who considers themselves a part of that group already knows what to do: buy and hold. There is nothing that could be done to stop the hype now, even if they shut down the market, it would just find somewhere else to go.

The numogrammatic nature of a given hyperstition is already occulted by the other two aspects of hyperstition. Any numogrammatic signal is interpreted through a mythos, which in turn is interpreted through the hype generated. Most people do not have the tools or the framework in order to cut through to the core of what’s going on at the numogrammatic level and the creation of those tools is still on-going. For the purpose of this analysis, I will be employing qabbalistic techniques to find where this event might ping on the numogram. My interpretation (in fact all qabbalistic interpretation) is based on personal associations, so it may not jive with your interpretation of events. Either way, I implore you to do your own analysis (you can even post it in the comments below).

First off, let’s start with r/wallstreetbets. The full phrase is AQ-334, which is linked to Time Spiral Press and the Order of Nine Angles. On a number-line, 334 comes immediately after 333, which is very significant and represents the absolute limit of human understanding (AQ-333 = CORONZONIC ABYSS). The Abyss in Thelema is a concept which represents the fundamental gulf between a particular human and absolute unity with God. So 334 would be the messenger of the abyss, then. The one who returns from the abyss with knowledge of what reality actually is. 3+3+3=9, 3+3+4=10=1+0=1. 9 represents the limit of the system, and 1 is its ticking back around into a particular. In this situation, r/wallstreetbets is the messenger that reveals the true nature of reality (which might just be how the stock market works, or that retail investors actually have a ridiculous amount of power that, if exercised, could ruin rich people’s day).

Gamestop as the battleground must also be considered. GAMESTOP = AQ-168 = WAR IS GOD (= VEXSYS, which is why I’m writing about it in the first place) = DEMOCRACY. So, Gamestop stock becomes the virtual battleground for a showdown between hedge funds and retail investors. Democracy deals with ideas such as “power to the people”, which is one of the major drives of the hype of this situation. Most telling, in my opinion, is the fact that 1+6+8=15, which clicks Gt-15 and takes us into the warp from Zn-5. So, the assemblage of r/wallstreetbets has made a push towards war.

In interpretative terms, this could be the beginning of an engine of war that systematically pillages all hedge funds of their easily earned dough. Already we’re seeing the hype from $GME expand into other stocks (Nokia, Blackberry, and AMC Entertainment to name a few). If this campaign continues, the market will be pushed further and further into the warp, until only those comfortable in warp-time will be able to follow the patterns. However, through sub-plexing, we could simply see the rigorous destruction of assets through Zn-4 and back to business as usual. Only time will tell.
