Every time my dreams include a number, it's always 17 for some reason. one of these recent dreams was of me wandering around in a hotel and finding a room with the number 17 craved above it. Another one was of me in a classroom and a teacher was giving back exam papers and on mine was the number 17 written in red. Something that truly confuses me is that I find myself sometimes writing the number 17 unconsciously even when I'm not even thinking about it !! I feel like the number is trying to tell me something and I don't get it !

17 is dishonor and shame. Maybe it's a warning dream?Wandering around a hotel speaks rather clearly to me about the state of conscious you're in (or was in at that time). You're not "home," rather you're wandering around a space meant for temporary stay but not really going anywhere in particular and/or without any type of plan and then you happen upon room 17. Essentially, you're wandering around in life with no set plan or contingency to where you are going and while wondering you happen to look up and see what is upon you or where this aimless wandering brought you. If it is a warning dream, it might be telling you to get your act together and start focusing on something specific before you end up in a bad place because of a lack of direction and/or application of sound principles. ------------------ Truth & Integrity in all things.

Thanks for the explanation Wereabouts but there's something I'd like to discuss. When I asked a numerologist about the number 17 in dreams, she told that it represents the core soul of my consciousnesses and it symbolizes in a way being on " the right path " while 18 symbolizes the " wrong path " so I'm really confused right now because your explanation is the total opposite. Could you please share more of your insight with me on it? ------------------ This is my destiny, Only child. Come on and Rescue me.. I'm wild.. How can I change the path I'm on..

Sure.I follow a certain pattern for dream interpretation and have been doing so for about 25 years. There is nothing in that dream that indicates to me that you are on the right path, exactly the opposite. A hotel is a place meant for a temporary stay and you're in there just wandering around, not knowing where you are going but in there hanging out. You don't even have your own room there. Then you look up at one point and notice a number. If the number was "81," I'd tell you you'd soon be a drug addict, or that you were entering the room of a drug addict but your number was 17, and based on what I know, that is dishonor and shame. Whose dishonor and shame I can't say but since you've indicated it comes up consistently, it is definitely a message your spirit guides and your subconscious are trying to get across to you. I would suspect that if it meant you were on the right path, they would not go to such repeated efforts to tell you that for you'd already know that and wouldn't need them to reach out to you. But they continue to present this message to you because you need to know about this. It's a warning and you're not warned about doing the right thing. Only you can know if this relates to you or someone you know. quote: Originally posted by SilverFeather: [QUOTE]Originally posted by whereabouts: [b]17 is dishonor and shame.

Your brain or unconscious is trying to wake you up while in the dreaming state. This would be called Lucid dreaming. You've programmed the #17 as a watch word, but seems to have forgotten that you did, so now it's confusing. IP: Logged |

So if you keep seeing the number 17 everywhere after already experiencing dishonor and shame, does it mean there's more to come? And why wouldn't one reduce the number to 8, which stands for wealth and success?IP: Logged |

I'm not sure about "8" being wealth in a dream for I know it as conservation of property, complete conservation. I guess that could equate to wealth if you look at it that way but this was not 8, it was 17. Dream symbols are not indicative of the science of numerology in general. I know of no number associated with wealth in a dream. I recognize other universal dream symbols for wealth, those that are not numerical.------------------ Truth & Integrity in all things.

As to seeing 17 everywhere and you're not sure what it means? My suggestion is to not worry about it. Spirit presents us with "clues" and when the time is right, we eventually will understand what those clues mean. It takes considerable time to understand the language of spirit. If you keep seeing 17, just pay attention and let it roll around in the back of your mind while you're going about your normal routine. Then one day something will take place that will pull it all together and then you'll "know". That is how we all learn to understand the communication of spirit. But don't waste time and energy resources trying to force understand spirit communication. Let it work the way spirit works. TTT - things take time. Have patience.------------------ Truth & Integrity in all things. The Truth is the answer to everything. IP: Logged |

If you draw an 8 on a piece of paper and put in your wallet or purse, it is said to attract money to pay your bills. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

BTW, 8 is also the "infinity" symbol. It also represents maintaining balance. Whatever is put on the path in 8 comes back around - the classic figure 8. This means, what you put out there is what will be returned to you. When things are not going as you'd like, you must look back to see where on the path you put out whatever is currently being returned to you and adjust your methods accordingly so that what you put out moving forward will be returned to you with what you desire. We are all the master of our our ship, the driver of our own automobile, and the teacher of our own inner school. We're all the housekeeper within, the decorator, the maintenance guy, the repair man, the plumber, etc. If we don't like what we have, we have to look in the mirror for the reasons why we are where we are. ------------------ Truth & Integrity in all things.

Grimm this week used the number 17. They did their research. They said it meant immortality.------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca Clark IP: Logged |
