Numbers Synchronicity?

[geist23]

Hello,
I just found this site, and was tremendously excited, because I've had a lot of experience with synchronicity.
One of the most persistent is with numbers. A few people have said that I'm just paying attention and looking for it, but that's not exactly true. I started paying attention once it popped up everywhere. It's the number 334. The instances where I see this number are too numerous to name, but I'm going to start keeping a log.
Another recent weirdness involved a trip to Ireland and a favorite writer. My husband and I spent 8 days in Belfast during our honeymoon, which is the hometown of Robert Mcliam Wilson, a writer I'd recently gotten into.
He and I spent a lot of time wandering around the city, and found ourselves in a quiet, scenic neighborhood. We found a cat sitting in front of a hedge, and the cat was so tame and relaxed that we marvelled at it, and my husband took a picture of me petting it.
So, about a month ago, I was a bit bored and going through the net, looking for random information, and I typed in the writer's name. I found a website written from the point of view of his cat. So, feeling a little odd already, I pulled up the website and watched the cat's picture load. Yes, it was the same cat, sitting in front of the same hedge. I signed the guestbook with this story, offering to scan my picture and send it to them. The webmistress replied immediately, wanting to see the picture, so I sent it to her the next day. She was taken aback, not only by it being the same cat, but by the fact that she and I look so much alike, her husband thought the picture was of her. We've been corresponding here and there since then.

I having the same issues but with license plates. I see my boyfriends initials in the sequence of the letters. And I see it all the time. And I'm not looking for it; it just shows up.

I have always seen the numbers 11:11...anyone else?

[havealittlefaith]

I do see 9:11 all the time. When it's around 9 ish, i look at the clock and i see that time. Really scary.

I've heard that the 11:11 is a well-known synchronicity these days, havealittlefaith (I like your name). I, for one, would be very interested to read here anything that anyone knows about it. Maybe some website addresses, or snips from members' reading. Anyone know anything?

I, too, get the 11:11 thing occasionally, but nothing out of the ordinary.

[havealittlefaith]

Thank you Pip! I've never had the 11:11 happen to me.

There seems to be a fair bit online:

Thanks Pip for the link! It was very helpful to me.

Ironically, the synchronicity number is the number in geist's username; 23.

"The New Lane" talks about the number 23 as a synchronicity number, and the number appears numerous times in the book.

I have this thing happen to me all the time (11:11), well for about the last year. I looked up that stuff on the internet last night and it gets pretty wild. I have been wondering what it means all year, have really been in tune with it. Wish I hadn't passed through the "plane of forgetfullness" and forgot what I was doing here when I was born. Maybe these spirit guides or whatever it is showing me the 11:11 could give me a little more information? Like - what, why, when? Instead of this stupid synchronicity shtuff that just lets me know that a) I don't have a clue what's up b) someone or something else does and c) I'm stupid and human. You know they're laughing at us...

~I know this is an old thread, but in response to the 11:11 question, some years ago I read a book about this. It's a reminder of the portal into the next level of consciousness, the next higher frequency of vibration that humanity is to evolve to.
I hope I'm remembering this right. The increased use of digital clocks of course has increased the frequency that people see 11:11, but that cannot alone account for how many times it seems I look at either my bedside clock or the clock on my comp and there it is. Seems like it's *always* 11:11!

23 is a constant in my life. ever since discovering Robert Anton Wilson. and synchronicities in general, numerous to the point that they are now losing any significance or meaning and are simply just "there." buddhists claim synchronicities mean u are on the right path, so i must be doing something right. in the past, when i've paid a lot of attention to the occurrences or tried to purposely look out for them, they've disappeared, so i don't obsess over it anymore and just kick back and enjoy the ride...

a few days ago i went to view a friends blog on myspace.com. she was asking for help in naming her new puppy. for some reason, the name Caesar came to me and i wrote it down as my suggestion. i was at the library of my school at the time and afterwards went to look for a video to check out. i had been setlecting videos at random (videos are placed among the related books), mostly from the religion section (i had recently watched a doc on Trappist monks and the movie Kundun). that day, however, there was a person sitting on the ground, blocking the way, so i went to the next aisle, which was mostly political/social commentary. i was getting frustrated at not finding any, until i got to the bottom row and found a group of several volumes of docs put out by A&E. the first volume was about Julius Caesar. i checked it out and watched it, discovering that Caesar was stabbed 23 times.

23 is an interesting one for a lot of people. In 1984 a friend of mine was telling me all about 23 and Robert Anton Wilson, and lent me Timothy Leary's book in which he talks about that number, and the coded "mission" of humans to return to the stars. While I was reading it, the Olympic Games (Los Angeles) opening or closing ceremony was on TV and as I looked at it, it had a big UFO descend on a big XXIII (23rd Olympics). It struck me that the biggest viewing audience in history was seeeing might have been what Leary was talking about.
