The bell chamber

The Bell Tower has six stories [or floors] or seven if the dome with the cross is to be included in the counting [but the dome is hardly a floor!]. First floor is the museum-turned-office; second floor, the shrine that houses the statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary; third, fourth and fifth, the three balconies; and the most important part of the bell tower, the bell chamber, in sixth floor.

The 'X' sign on the ceiling of the bell chamber and the clock

"X" is a multiplication sign or "times sign" -- "sign of the times." We will see multiplied constructions of belfries in the Archdiocese, not the conventional belfries attached to church buildings but "freestanding" belfries, the Church version of obelisks.

The three sixes

The middle part of the bell-cum-watch tower located immediately beneath the bell chamber is divided into three balconies and each balcony has its own spiral staircase -- thus, three spirals are equal to three sixes!

Three bells on east side of the chamber, six bars divided by three and worn upon each of the crown and clappers hanging within the mouths are taking a peek by the railing.

The spiral

Once viewed from upstairs and the starting point of the spiral staircase is structured right side, the swirl of the ladder is seen as an outline of a 6th number or an inverted stroke of "6" if structured left.

A spiral, patterned after the curve found in nature as in seashells, human fingerprints and movement of the galaxies in the outer space, is likewise one of the signs of the new age movement.
