Coincidence or spooky?

For a good 12-15 years, approx 4x out the week whenever I look at a digital clock the time is 22:22. I mean, what could it really mean?
Anyone can give me any insight on this?

It’s 10.22pm?

stouffer · 03/03/2020 22:31

Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day....

ChanklyBore · 03/03/2020 22:32

It means you have a body clock that starts to get ready for a transition at 22.22 and glance at the clock for confirmation.

I can wake up at a time of my choosing without using an alarm clock. I don’t, usually, because it’s easy to set one just in case, and I sleep better. But I can do it, wake within a minute or two of 6am if I choose, for example. Doesn’t mean much!

Ha ha. I always see this time, too. I think I just notice it as it's like 4 little ducks and I have 4 kids.

SidekickSally · 03/03/2020 22:33

I have the same with 11:11
The rational part of my brain tells me that I don’t tend to notice when it’s any other time. The irrational part tells me it’s my dad sending me a message from beyond the grave!

I think it's coincidence. But if something happens in 2 years time on 2nd of February I wanna know about it!

Toseland · 03/03/2020 22:43

I have a similar thing with 1111, I’ve been seeing it for years, not just on clocks. A few years ago I asked around my friends and family to see if anyone had an explanation. I got a few odd looks and a couple of ‘it’s because you are looking for it’ suggestions. I tried to forget about it but a few days later received a letter with my Nectar card balance in the post, 1,111 points!

You should look up synchronicity numbers

Bananacloud · 03/03/2020 22:51

Not sure if I have in the past, but I’m gonna google 22:22😐

@stouffer fellow Ride fan?

Pickledbrain1 · 03/03/2020 22:55

I always see 12:34. I told my husband and he thought I was making it up! So I started taking a screen shot each time it happens. It happens a lot. It’s not just because I eat lunch around then. I can be in middle of work or cleaning or with family and I’ll look at time... it’s always 12:34

giftponderings · 03/03/2020 22:58

My husband is the same with 11:43, he's pointed it out to me several times now!

Treescaper · 03/03/2020 23:01

Google ‘Angel numbers’

CalmdownJanet · 03/03/2020 23:04

I have it with 11:11 too

“It’s 10.22pm?”

That made me laugh out loud, mollypuss. Grin
I see 22.22 and 11.11 regularly, and once the whole family saw 12.34 and were ridiculously excited about it (we’re a sad bunch sometimes!)

Babyroobs · 03/03/2020 23:09

Always 11:11 with me.

crustycrab · 03/03/2020 23:10

11.11 for me too. Weird Grin

SidekickSally · 03/03/2020 23:11

I first noticed 11.11 at my Dad’s funeral and since then seeing it gives me a little comfort.

MissConductUS · 03/03/2020 23:13

I see notice 9:11 a lot. I was about a mile north of the WTC when the attack happened.

It's purely psychological.

Bananacloud · 03/03/2020 23:13

It’s angels sending us messages 🥰

@SidekickSally notice what time you Posted your response.. 🤓

SidekickSally · 03/03/2020 23:17

OP, did you start this thread because you’d just seen 22.22? Noticed the time of your post. My post was sent at 11.11 funnily enough even tho it says 23.11 which doesn’t have quite the same ring 😂

SidekickSally · 03/03/2020 23:17

Cross posts! 😂
