Very serious question. It's NOT a pattern recognition thing. Not at all. It can't be.
I work in a call center. I taking calls three days ago. Each and every single call I have been on, the person has told me 17 related to SOMETHING. "We make $17k", "I live at 17 West XYZ street", date of birth, oh, it's 1/17, etc etc. It's gotten to the point where I'm on a call and I'm like okay and what's your address and I'm anticipating the words - then when I was anticipating it, I got 7117 Lol. I can't even make any of this up.
I leave the house, come to a red light, car pulls up next to me - tag is 17. Go into the store, come out, car parked next to me, 17.
Someone please help me understand what the significance of seeing this number repeated over and over means. There must be something God is trying to tell me or show me. I've read a few different things:
It means you're on the right path and to keep going
additionally read it means God's completion
then alternatively I've read
It means you need to search your emotions
Anyone have any idea?
it's a common and well known psychological phenomenon.
10 years ago 17 had no special meaning to you. It probably didn't have any special meaning until it was pointed out that Q is the 17th letter of the alphabet.
let's say you are at the grocery store 10 years ago and something costs $3.17 that would have been meaningless to you and your brain would ignore it. Now 17 pops out at you and you "notice" it. That's called selective attention which is part of this
first time it ever happened to me was when my brother bought a car model I never heard of. Then I started seeing them everywhere. The whole phenomenon is called the frequency illusion.

You think that's the same with the news? 17M did this, 170M did that, disney loses 170m, netflix 17 something, all of it. it's like nonstop. Phone notification "17 ways to adjust your diet." Again, why 17 ways? There's gotta be significance to the number.

So..not a coincidence.
Yep, and I've read about that before. But it's hard to say that's what it is if I do five phone calls and all five there's a relation to it in some way. I mean come on who would tell me " I spend $17K on xyz" - ...why not 15. 20. 16. Round it up. Why. It's more than confirmation bias, I feel. gematrix also translates it into a famous three letter agency. maybe people are being tagged lol
