Some authors claim that seeing 11:11 on a clock is an auspicious sign.
Others claim that 11:11 signals a spirit presence.
However, skeptics say that Uri Geller's examples of 11:11 phenomena in world events are examples of post-hoc reasoning and confirmation bias."
What I want to go into in this post is the MU boys position in their current podcast that #11 is a cursed number.
Personally, I don't believe any particular number is a cursed number, no matter what coincidences or synchronicities may involve them.

Douglas Adams of 42 fame would probably tell you that numbers don't really mean anything of real significance, as far as the universe trying to tell you things goes, but I wonder in hindsight if he would see 11 as being an unlucky number?

It isn't surprising that Tarot trump number 11 is Justice, showing the balance, because there are 10 trumps before it and 10 after, if you ignore the Fool. If you consider the Fool as card number 0, then the 11th card is actually the Wheel of Fortune, another well-balanced card.
ReplyDeleteI like the thought of that Luna, as being born on the cusp of Virgo/Libra the scales as a symbol of balance is always something that has resonated with me. But as you may have noticed from my blog's name, I also like to keep an eye on the wheel:-)
