My Little Experiment with 7888
Alright, so I wanted to share something I’ve been doing lately. It’s about this number, 7888. Yeah, sounds a bit out there, I know. But stick with me for a sec.
It started a few weeks back. I just kept seeing 7888. Like, really seeing it. First time, it was the last four digits of an order number online. Didn’t think anything of it. Then, I glanced at my phone later that day, and the battery percentage combined with the time somehow made 7888, or maybe it was just the milliseconds on a timer, something weird like that. Then I saw it on a license plate. And again on a receipt total, maybe $78.88. It got spooky, you know? Like the universe was trying to poke me.
So, I did what anyone does these days, I guess. Googled it? Nah, not really my style initially. I mentioned it to a friend, kinda jokingly, and they were like, “Oh, angel numbers!” I rolled my eyes a bit, not gonna lie. Doesn’t usually float my boat. But the number kept showing up. Seriously, it was becoming a regular thing.
So, I thought, okay, fine. What if I just… paid attention? Didn’t have to believe anything magical, just observe. That became my little ‘practice’.
Here’s what I actually did:
- Noticing: First step was simple. Every time 7888 popped up, instead of dismissing it, I just mentally noted it. Like, “Ah, there it is again.” No big ceremony, just acknowledging it.
- Thinking about the ‘8s’: Someone mentioned 8 is often about abundance, finances, that sort of stuff. And there were two of them, plus the 7. So, I started thinking more consciously about my work and my efforts. Was I putting in good energy? Was I focused on practical goals?
- A small shift: I decided to be a bit more deliberate with my finances for a week. Not drastically, just tracking spending a bit more carefully, thinking about value. Felt like a practical way to respond to the ‘abundance’ theme, without waiting for money to fall from the sky.
- Journaling… sort of: Didn’t keep a dedicated angel number diary, that’s too much for me. But when I saw the number, sometimes I’d just jot down what I was thinking about or doing at that moment in my regular notebook. Just a line or two.
What Happened?
Well, did a pot of gold appear? Nope. Shocker, right? But here’s the funny thing. Because I was consciously acknowledging the number, and vaguely linking it to effort and finances (thanks to those double 8s), I found myself being a bit more focused at work. Not because of magic, but because I was thinking about being more focused.
I also had a conversation with my boss about a project I was working on, maybe a bit more proactively than usual. And it went well. Got some positive feedback. Was it the 7888? Who knows. Maybe it was just me deciding to engage more because this weird number pattern put the idea of ‘effort and reward’ in my head.
So, that’s my little journey with 7888. I don’t know if it’s angels whispering sweet nothings or just my brain finding patterns, like seeing faces in clouds. But honestly, just the act of paying attention and using it as a nudge to focus on practical things felt… useful? It didn’t change my life overnight, but it was a weird little experience, and maybe that small shift in focus was the whole point. Still seeing it occasionally, by the way. Still just saying, “Ah, there you are.”
