Numerology by an Average Joe

It has been said that numbers can carry a greater meaning than simply giving a numeric value. In many cases numbers are linked to superstition, religions, cultures, and (even more vague and mysterious) statistics. The symbolism and meaning behind numbers can seem very complicated, so let me simplify it for you. I have assembled a list of what I believe to be some of the luckiest number-related happenings. Many of these events have happened in my own life, and I can tell you that luck has certainly followed.

First, (this happened to me yesterday) if you ever have a total bill for $7.11 at 7-11, that is a good sign. Something good is coming your way, like a slurpee.  This amazing event brings with it outstanding luck.  As a matter of fact, I'm fairly sure that the only thing luckier is if you spend $7.11 at 7-11 on 7/11! If that ever happens, go ahead and throw caution into the wind, my friend, because you are untouchable. You are so lucky, you could even buy a hot dog at 7-11 and you probably won't die of food poisoning or a spontaneous rupture in your small intestine (a common, but little known side affect of 7-11 hot dogs). Make sure you give it a go on July 11th this year.

The next numeric sign of good luck is far more common. If you ever look at a digital clock (must be digital) at exactly 12:34 in the afternoon, the rest of your day will be fantastic. Now, for this to work there are a few rules. First, you cannot plan or anticipate it happening, it has to be accidental and spontaneous, true serendipity. Second, it has to be 12:34 in the afternoon, if it happens at 12:34 in the morning you have a two things working against you: a) in military time, which is far more precise (numbers prefer precision) it is actually 00:34, which is neither cool, nor lucky. And b) YOU'RE AWAKE AT 12:34 AM!!! Get some rest.  No day will be lucky if you sleep through it.

Finally, if you ever see the number 3.14 (π) in any form (3/14, 3 1/4, 3.14, 3:14, $3.14, etc) and you eat pie on the same day, you will have extra luck as well. Pie and Pi (π) are two different things that are actually cosmically related. I made a chart to explain.

So, after looking at the chart and realizing the infallible logic involved, it becomes painfully clear that any time pi and pie are connected in some way, luck will follow.

Hopefully this brief explanation of luck and numerology will prove beneficial to you as you journey through life day by day. I have found that is has made my life much more enjoyable. Oh, and just in case you were wondering, 'Joe' based numerology only brings good luck, never bad. I'm just an optimistic guy.

Sincerely,

An 'Average' Joe
