If you take something like Stonehenge, the vitruvian man drawing, the pyramids, etc..., and you intently study those items looking for some significance, you're going to find it, not because the original folks that created them planned the significance or thought about it at all, but because if you want to find something, you can make things fit.
"14 phases of the waxing moon" and "14 phases of the waning moon"? I've never heard of anyone reference "14 phases" in each half of the lunar cycle (ie 1 phase = 1 day). I have found some references to ancient Egyptions having "quarters" which is what we use today. If they'd been looking for some other number they may have settled on "336" since that's how many phases exist if you consider 1 phase = 1 hour.
I had a work colleague, that after 9/11 happened, contacted the FBI because he did a bunch of stuff with words, and numbers and the like "if you take the number that corresponds to the letters of the names and then add them together you get the number .... which corresponds to the address of the ...."
I'm open minded to all sorts of things, but skeptical and apply my own ideas of logic, math, science, and open-mindedness to things. Sometimes you've just got to say "nope, there's nothing in this."
And this sort of stuff, where someone applies math to things and comes up with relationships is one of those things where you have to be REALLY careful.
