Lucky and Unlucky Number Numerology | Is there more to it than we think?

This is the 777th post of the 2014 year.  It is about questioning whether 7 truly is a good number.  2014, is of course a year with 7 numerology.

• 2014 = 2+0+1+4 = 7
• In two days, the date will be 7/7/2014, or 7/7/7
• The last time this occurred was 7/7/2005 (2+0+0+5 = 7)
• The next time will be 7/7/2023
• It is a 9-year pattern; 9 is the underlying number in numerology
• Please read about the London 7/7/2005 bombings here
• These bombings happened in perfect accordance with a planned drill

The majority of living persons in the Western World have the same superstitions about numbers when surveyed.  The majority of people like the numbers 3 and 7, and dislike the number 13.  The DailyMail has a very interesting article on this topic, with the number 7 at the focus, dated April 10, 2014.  You can read that article in its entirety here, it discusses everything from the Seven Dwarves to the lottery.  Here is an excerpt from that same article about the lottery which strikes me curious.

That’s what happened on November 14, 1995, when 133 tickets shared the £16 million prize — each winner got just £120,000. The winning numbers were 7, 17, 23, 32, 38, 42 and 48 — all popular numbers with players.

• 11/14 = 1+1+1+4 = 7
• £16 = 16 = 1+6 = 7
• 133 = 1+3+3 = 7  

Isn't it curious?  133 tickets you say, on November 14?  That must have been disappointing for the winners, if there were any.  For just a moment, close your eyes, and visualize all the people worldwide playing the lottery, and sitting in front of slot machines, and hoping they're about to get their lucky break, waiting and waiting for those triple sevens, 7-7-7.  Isn't it sad?  To me it is.  And who is it that said 7 was good anyway?  Maybe it is "bad".  Maybe that is why the makers of these machines have people sitting at them, waiting for this number to come up, three times.  After all, the Gematria of the word "bad", is "7", let us examine.

• Bad = 2+1+4 = 7
• Good = 7+15+15+4 = 41, reduces to 5
• 5 is directly between 3 and 7, which most people find to be "luckier"

Have you ever heard anyone tell you that 41 is a bad number before?  How about 41 a good number?  Off the top of my head, here are two other words that I can think of with "41" Gematria.

• King = 11+9+14+7 = 41
• Fuck = 6+21+3+11 = 41
• Those could both be good things, depends on how you see it
• All things are perspective...

The same article also mentions author Joseph Heller, author of Catch-22.  There is something he has in common with the 133 tickets mentioned above and the number 7.

• Joseph = 10+15+19+5+16+8 = 73
• Heller = 8+5+12+12+5+18 = 60
• Joseph Heller = 73+60 = 133

Do you think using Joseph Heller, Mr. 133, is very clever coding of "7" within their own article about the number 7?  I think so.  It reminds me much of the Director of the IMF, Christine Lagarde's numerology based speech on "7", from May of 2014, one month after this article.  She is of French dissent, so it seems there is much "seven" in the "mainstream" coming from across the Atlantic these days.  Let us close with a thought about the word luck, in numbers.

• Luck = 12+21+3+11 = 47
• Luck = 3+3+3+11 = 20
• Luck = 3+3+3+2 = 11

If the word luck is broken apart, as pronounced, it is Lu-ck, or 21 and 12 - 3 and 11.

• Lu = 21+12 = 33
• ck = 3+11 = 14

 Is true luck, being born into the "33", or "311"?

• USA = 311
• 7/4 birthday
• or 4/7 for 4th of July
  Luck = 47
• Luck = 33311

"Three" and "Seven" are the only numbers into words that breakdown to "eleven" numerology.

• Three = 2+8+9+5+5 = 29, reduces to 11 (2+9 = 11)
• Seven = 1+5+22+5+5 = 38, reduces to 11 (3+8 = 11)
• Notice that Lucky reduces to "11" also (47 = 4+7 = 11)

The fear of "13" is referred to as "Triskaidekaphobia".

• 2+9+9+1+11+1+9+4+5+11+1+7+8+6+2+9+1 = 96
