My 11:11
Posted: Wed Dec 07, 2011 6:11 pm
I am so glad I found this board because this 11:11 phenomenon has had me pondering deeply about many things lately and at some points driving me crazy. I have mentioned it to my wife and her reply was "Someone must be trying to tell you something."
This started for me about 6 months ago. I was laying in bed getting ready to go to sleep and looked over at the clock. Of course it read 11:11, but that is not all. As soon as I saw that 11:11 on the clock a though slipped into my mind and it went something like this "11:11 is an important number." I thought about it for a second and questioned why 11:11 is an important number. The reply that came from my mind was "11:11 is an important number, among other things use this number in your dreams to realize you are in a dream." I thought again why is that so important I do not dream all that often. The last thought was "It just is, remember it." then i fell asleep. I did not really hear any other voice, this was just me having a conversation with my thoughts.
Ever since then I tend to always look at the clock when it is 11:11 or 1:11, not that I sit there and wait for that time I will just glance at the clock, weather its in my car, on my tv, microwave, phone, my computer at work or wherever else. I cant say that I look at it every time that it is 11:11 but much more frequently than other times. Also since that first night I have been dreaming quite frequently. Mostly about family stuff, no bad dreams, some funny ones some normal boring ones but they all have at least one member of my family in them weather it is my wife, or daughter or one of my sons. I have ran all of the possible combinations of 1111 through my mind, binary math, BCD math, general math and can not find anything related to anything math wise about this phenomenon.
Though my mind tends to work generally on logic I tend to be very empathetic , and I do believe in higher powers, just not structured religion I have been that way my whole life. My whole life I have gone out of my way to keep the peace between parties, weather it is family , work or even people I don't know in public. It puts a lot of weight on your shoulders no doubt, so after reading some of the things here I wonder if this may heighten my awareness to phenomenon such as this. As young as 8 years old I remember being able realize that I was dreaming when I was and take control of that situation. When I was around 14 years old I had a bad run with what my research has called a real "live" evil spirit that would constantly do things to try to kill me while laughing the whole time. This was not a one time even this went on for weeks to the point where I did not sleep at all for 4 days. The dream scape for all of this was my house most of them were in my bedroom. Though as I mentioned before I am not a fan of structured religion I distinctly remember one of these dreams where the spirit had me pinned down to the bed with his knees in my back pulling back in my head I assume trying to break my back or neck. I could not scream or even talk for that matter because my head was pulled back so far, so as a last resort I prayed. I looked over towards the wall after the desperate prayer for help and Jesus was standing there all of a sudden. I thought finally, someone here to help me please help me. The spirit looked over in the same direction and said "Too late, he can't help you now." In one movement of the spirit's hand Jesus was now just a picture on the wall but real blood was dripping from where his heart would have been down the picture and onto my wall. I woke up right after that and that is the point where I ended up not sleeping for 4 days, only catching very short naps in the middle of the day. When I did finally go to bed out of pure exhaustion I have never had those dreams since then. I just wonder if by chance these events are related with my new awareness of the numbers 11:11.
None of this is fake, it is all true and very real to my heart.
Thanks,
Bryan
