How do you feel about lucky numbers?
Have you ever used a certain method to pick things such as lotto picks, etc.?

Share a story about your experience.

I once heard about a person who picked winning numbers by spreading a kitchen table with numbers on little slips of paper, and meditated over them and voila! All the choices fell into place.

DO you always use your life path number in lucky pick situations, or do you also rely on your BD numbers, too?

1. 22
Edited on Sun May-29-11 05:10 PM by rbnyc
When I was in high school, I worked at a grocery store. Part of my job was to collect the shopping carts from the parking lot. They were all numbered. I had a difficult home life and I had done poorly in school, primarily because of excessive ditching. I pretty much got As, Fs and Ds. If I went to class, I got an A, if I didn't go, I failed or sometimes the teacher just took mercy on me. I had entered and won many district-wide and state-wide writing contests and I had applied for one college, a college known for aggressively recruiting students who could win writing contests. I felt that getting into this school was my only shot at life! Whenever I was collecting shopping carts and would start to think about my chances of getting into school, I would notice the number of the shopping cart I was pushing. It was always a cart with a 22 in the number. When I saw the 22, I would feel assured that I would get into school.

I started to test this new phenomenon by purposefully not looking at the cart numbers until I felt that I should, and each time, there was a 22 and I felt strongly that it was the universe telling me that I would go to Knox College and that it was the right path for me.

Ever since then, the number 22 comes to me at strange times, usually when I'm making a transition or trying to make a hard decision.

I don't play the lotto or any numbers games. I don't think that I am supposed to use lucky or special numbers in this way. That doesn't feel right to me, personally.

Edit: typo

2. Wow, Kooks, that's an interesting story.
Double digits in general mean something powerful, right?

4. I have NO idea.
I'd be interested to find out, however.

3. I have ZERO clarity as to why I even think I have a "lucky number"....
All I know is that, ever since my early 20's -- and I don't recall anything that led me to believe I have a lucky number, it just kind of happened -- I've felt 247, or any combination thereof, is "lucky."

That was way before the whole 24/7 (24 hours a day, seven days a week) thing took hold in pop culture. Of course, once I started hearing 24/7, it reinforced the existence of my "lucky number."

I have NEVER been lucky with that number though.

:rofl:

Every April 27th I wait for a huge joy-filled miracle...same for July 24th.

So far, nothing.

But I'm still hopeful. ;)

Not much of a story, but I do feel I have a lucky number, even though I have no idea why or how it originated, and even though it has yet to be lucky.

:hug:
