LS - I get "messages" and information through a myriad of ways. For a few months, 1111 has been essentially driving me nuts in a fairly specific manner. In the room where I spend the most time, I have 2 time sources, and it rarely fails that no matter what I'm doing, I'll look at those clocks and it will be 11:11 or 111.
Because I get so many messages, I pay close attention to some and discard others. I can't get away from this and have also picked up on the 1111 in other places to away from clocks. From experience, I know without question that this is a message. Now, it's left to me and my imagination to figure it out. Literal, figurative or delusional Early on, I would have said this is just quad 1s or triple 1s and left it at that, but as I've matured with this gift, I know I have to look further and not close any doors. It could reference a date or maybe not 1's but 4's given the sum. Or perhaps, the message is simply quads themselves. Afterall, despite all the numbers found on a clock, a single quad squeaks out, 1111.
Finally, I'm well aware of the tricks the mind can play as well. Once focused on the number, any proximity to my peripheral vision my bring me to it subconsciously. But this time I don't think this is the case. A couple nights ago I was sound asleep (exhausted as I am, comatose is more like it). Anyway, I suddenly opened my eyes and directly ahead of me was a clock and the time 11:11. Now, I am rarely asleep at 11:11 so in retrospect, I think I dream this lucidly so much so that I thought I was awake.
Something else, I was absolutely sure that Maryland had 1111 within the last 1-2 years - I remember it falling, I thought, because I thought that soon afterward the trend of 1111 being sold out in DE began. I know I did not dream this. When I looked at Daf's chart, it seems that it was much longer ago but my memory of it is fairly strong.
To answer your question LS, all of the above is why 1111 and I made a decision to answer in detail as maybe writing this down will help clean my cache so I can figure this out. If the answer comes to me, I'll let you know. Chances are, someone else will know before me. That said, maybe I need to find the time to get to MD and play 1111. If 1111 falls in GA, that loud, mournful wailing you'll hear will be me.
