Have you noticed the following musicians in the music industry:
Aaliyah Died August 25th
Left Eye Died April 25th
James Brown Died December 25th
Michael Jackson Died June 25th
This was brought to my attention.
Now here is what the numbers mean from a spiritual standpoint according to, Symbolism the Numbers, a website that discusses the spiritual meaning behind the numbers.
Two means...
"Two is unity plus another, thus we have a difference or a contrast between the one and the other. Two is the first number by which we can divide another, in all of its uses this fundamental idea of division or difference shows through. The first time that the word two is used in the bible is in relation to this theme of division. The sun and the moon were to mark out the division between the day and the night. Thus the first use of two in the Bible was to make a division.
16And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
Genesis 1:16-18
When it comes to the course of human affairs, the difference may be for good or for bad. The second might be for comfort or help.
9Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. 10For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. 11Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
Ecclesiastes 4:9-11
However it might be in opposition, enmity or oppression. Unfortunately when humans are involved the second is more likely the case.
22And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD. 23And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
Genesis 25:22-23
Here we have Rebekah pregnant with Jacob and Esau who struggled from within the womb and all through their lives. Here we have a prime example of not only two who are in opposition to each other but also a contrast. The Bible often seeks to teach us by showing us a contrast between a bad example and a good one. Esau was the oldest and thus should have inherited the birthright of the promises given to Abraham and Isaac. However he valued them so little that he sold them to Jacob for a pot of stew. When Esau was forty years old he took two wives of the Hittites which were a grief of mind or a bitterness of Spirit to Isaac and Rebekah (Genesis 26:35). Jacob on the other hand valued the birthright so highly that he resorted to deception and guile to win them. Also he worked for 14 years to attain the wife of his parents (and his own) choosing."
The website also instructs on the meaning of 5.
"Five is four plus one, we have seen that there are three persons in the Godhead, four represents their created work. The creation was made subject to corruption, mankind has sown to itself corruption, there is no life without death.
For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope
Romans 8:20
In this verse the word translated as creature is the Greek word ktivsi" ktis’-is, which means the creation, the thing created, or the act of founding or establishing. The Greek word translated as vanity is mataiovth" mat-ah-yot’-ace, which means what is devoid of truth and appropriateness, perverseness, depravity, frailty, want of vigour. Thus this verse could read, "For the creation was made subject to frailty..."
Five is the creation plus another. The only possible answer to the corruption and death that is an inevitable part of the creation is Gods power of redemption. There is no aspect of creation and especially of mankind that deserves or could earn redemption. God can only give redemption as a free unmerited gift. There is an old fashioned word for this undeserved favor, grace. Five is the number of grace.
53For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Corinthians 15:53-54
Grace, or Gods unmerited favor is one of, if not the enduring theme of the Bible. Abram did not deserve the grace that was delivered to him any more than we deserved the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. God sealed his unconditional promises to Abram by the covenant of circumcision and by changing his name to Abraham. In the Hebrew this involved adding one letter to Abrams name. The fifth letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Sarai, Abram's wife also had her name changed to Sarah by the addition of the fifth letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Thus God is clearly showing that His covenant with Abraham was through grace and by grace only."

Now on to Ed McMahon, Farah Fawcett, and Michael Jackson all three died in Los Angeles and all three deaths were reported within three days. It makes you think coincidence or deeper meaning? You be the judge.
I am aware the media and individuals can purposely look for connections when one passes, but some things you need not force. There is no question that the circumstances are definitely peculiar and out of our control.
I encourage you to look up the spiritual meaning of numbers that continuously shows up in your own life. God isn't restricted to mere words, he uses numbers too.
Be blessed.
