Are you superstitious of numbers? If so steer clear!

There's a case for some numbers having energies, but mainly positive ones. 3 is supposed to be the number that enhances creativity and spirituality. Holy trinity, body/mind/soul, whatever way you want to look at it. Two poeple get togetehr to create a third.... Somehting like that anyway.

The negative/superstious numbers like 13 seem to be more old wives' tales kinda things.

haha 666 i'm loving it!! Nah its all just a big scam!!! Eg, cashing in on 06/06/06 to release a new version of the omen!!! And i didnt even know that 08/08/08 is like supposed to be the luckiest day ever according to chinese superstition until i read it in the paper!!

Numerology is BS tbh.

My husband and me have been haunted by the number 22. I don't even know where to start. It started when my hubbie said he always seemed to check the time on the digital display on our dvd player at 22.22. We both worked in a computer hard drive company where each drive had a serial number. My hubbie - Paddy noticed the number 2222 cropping up a lot during his workday. Then we started noticing other things-we went to Florida on hols. There's a taxi company there and the number includes 2222-at one point there were these cabs all around us - one in front,behind and one on either side. A bus eireann bus was in front of us in traffic and 22 22 was on the back window. We were walking down Grafton st one day and I was kicking a little black plastic cube thing-Paddy grabbed my arm and pointed at what i'd been kicking-it was a piece of a clothes hanger-size 22. We were watching an episode of Laurel and Hardy once where they were living next door to each other and two numbers were on the wall between their apartments-yes-22 22. Paddy went to use the bank machine in the store he works and he was the 2222nd customer to use it. An episode of 'Lost' a book falls from the sky with 22 on it. 'Coronation st' behind the counter in Roy's cafe check out what number is on the wall-22. I've a book on the Titanic and it says including passengers and crew there were 2222 souls on board. However though i've read other conflicting accounts, it's just typical that in my book that's the number stated. Paddy has a collection of photos on his phone of strange coincidences like from a football game on tv an Arsenal v United game two players stood for a few minutes as we were watching, each one wearing the number 22. We were in Salou this Summer on hols and we took a shortcut back to our apartment one day and passed a car parked with number plate 2222. Paddy had his lunch one day in a new cafe next to where he works and there were those numbers you put on your tray sitting on the counter and they were overlapping so they clearly said 2222-he sent the photo to me. Lately no matter how hot it is the temperature in our car is registering 22. Freaky yeah? I know as soon as i send this i'l think of more examples.

I hate the number 9 with a passion. It has brought me nothing but bad luck.

It started years back when i always had difficulty with the 9th hole on my local pitch n putt course. It was no more difficult than the other holes, yet it would always take me 6-8 shots to put the ball in the pin! Then my dog was killed on the 9/9/1995 around 9am in the morning. My grandfather died at 9.09pm on August 9th 1999. A few years ago i reversed over my dog, he was 9 years of age and i did it at 9.30pm in the evening! I wore the number 9 jersey in two county hurling finals, both of which my team lost. I have got at least 3 parking tickets on the 9th day of various months within the last few years. I generally try to stay clear of the number, it seems to have it in for me.

I feel like crying when people tell me they keep seeing a particular number all the time.

Why pray tell?

The number 13 (or 2/3 digit numbers which add up to 13) occurs in my life more than I would consider normal. I'm very well aware of the human tendancy to see patterns where none exists and to see importance in coincidences.

I know it's pure coincidence and I don't attach any particular importance to the number 13, but that doesn't stop the fact that I'm aware of it occuring more often for me in significant numbers - house numbers, IDs, hotel rooms, etc. I don't go looking for it.

If 666 is the number associated with evil, why does the phone number of every Gardai station in Dublin begin with it...?

Everyone has a touch of OCD.
Seriously. That's what it is.
