bird28 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 The main thing that drives me crazy is when things happen that seem to have no good explanation so you count it as supernatural and proof of something other than the natural world is at play. For example, "angel numbers" or numbers you seem to see a lot more than other numbers. I went nuts trying to find a meaning behind the numbers, but why does this happen?

mymistake Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Humans are hard wired to see patterns. So we sometimes see patterns even when there isn't one. It's like a cat chasing a laser dot. We don't have a choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disillusioned Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 With the numbers, it's probably a mixture of coincidence and you seeing what you're looking for (subconsciously or otherwise). After watching the moving The Number 23 with a bunch of my friends a few years ago, I made a game out of finding the number 23 as many times as I could. Within less than an hour, I had found it 23 times with various combinations of our names, addresses, phone numbers, heights, weights, etc. I stopped at 23 because it seemed appropriate, but I could have kept going. Nothing strange about it at all. Seek and ye shall find, and all that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurisaz Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Right after I had signed up with the German St. John's ambulance as volunteer medic, suddenly the entire town was chock full of St. John's vehicles. A miracle! Well not really. Only that now that I was member of the club I had begun paying attention. Same effect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overcame Faith Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I have experienced the number thing numerous times myself. Here's another one that is similar. Many times when I am reading something, someone in the vicinity or someone on the radio will say a word or phrase at the exact same time I am reading it. I don't think there is anything supernatural about it, but I do enjoy it when it happens because it is kind of a fun and interesting coincidence.

dichotomy Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Right after I had signed up with the German St. John's ambulance as volunteer medic, suddenly the entire town was chock full of St. John's vehicles. A miracle! Well not really. Only that now that I was member of the club I had begun paying attention. Same effect Yup, when we bought a specific kind of campervan, suddenly there were *hundreds* of them on the roads, we would see one most days, having never seen one before. The human mind is fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Margee Posted November 22, 2015 Moderator Share Posted November 22, 2015 When my MIL died July 1st, I began finding feathers everywhere!! Small ones, big ones, little ones from the pillow. I had a flower vase full of feathers!! Now the question is.....were there always feathers around me and I didn't pay attention or did my mind want to see these feathers thinking and knowing sub-consciously (in the new-age spiritual movement) that they are supposed to be a sign from above..... I have to say, it was an amazing feeling regardless!! Just cool.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
