Which numbers are unlucky?

Question

I know the number 13 is supposed to be unlucky and also 4 and 8 but what other numbers are classed as unlucky all over the world?

Answer 1

Depends on the person. Any number can be unlucky given a reason.

Answer 2

I am a Numerologist. There is no such thing as unlucky numbers, or bad numbers. All numbers have a different energy to them. So many people are afraid of the numbers 13 and 666. In numerology they are all broke down;
13 = 1 + 3 = 4 The four represents hard work, so if you are afraid of hard work then the number 4 is a number I guess you should be afraid of.
666 = 6 + 6 + 6 = 18 = 1 + 8 = 9
9 is very spiritual number and also means completion. So for those of you who believe in the end of the world I guess you should be afraid of the number 9 as a whole.
Here is a quick break down of the numbers:
1= New beginnings
2= Balance and Harmony
3= Bringer of Joy
4= Hard work
5= All about change and it is the sexual number
6= Family and love
7= Spiritual number and learning to be alone with out feeling lonely.
8= Money number and abundance
9= Spiritual and completion
I hope that this helps. Remember all numbers are broken down to a single digit. There is so much more information to write about numbers. This is just a very small amount of information.

Answer 3

Numbers are not unlucky. People are superstitous and think they are. In numerology numbers have meaning. Such as the number 4 is the number of the Builder. The number 13 can be further reduced to 4 (1 + 3 = 4). The Builder is not unlucky, the builder builds things.

The only time a number would be 'unlucky' is if your number didn't win the lottery, if the number on your speedometer said 70mph in a 45mph speed zone, if the numbers in your bank account were negative numbers, or when your 'number' in life came up (you die) unless you consider that to be lucky.

Answer 4

Number 13 is only considered unlucky because of superstition, number 4 is considered unlucky in Feng Shui, but number 8 is a lucky number in Feng Shui, a lot of people for some reason consider odd number unlucky but even numbers lucky, suppose it depends on your beliefs and were in the world you are, the Chinese are into numbers in a big way so maybe have a look at Feng Shui and the meaning of how they see numbers, good luck.

Answer 5

Actually 13 is not unlucky because of any Satan or witch thing. The number 13 is unlucky because on Friday 13th (early 1840's) the Knights Templar were all decimated. Just so you know Witches have nothing to do with Satan neither historically or in modern times. That is a religious myth created by the Christians. Just ask some Witches on the Religion and Spirituality board.

Answer 6

It depends on your culture or religion. Like in America, 666 is an unlucky number. And in China, 4 is a unlucky number.

Answer 7

I think we all have an unlucky number as we go through life ,I certainly have and that is number 8.Whatever has happened to me in my lifetime(bad things) i mean.The number eight is involved in one way or another if it isn't anumber 8 it always totals up to an 8 eg:the 6th of the second,or the second of the sixth.
My worst year was 1988 which if you understand numerology adds up to an 8.example
;1+9=10+8=18+8=26 you can't have a double number so you add the last two together and guess what that no is? number 8 of course it never fails, i have had a lot of the number 8s in my lifetime, i do believe we all have such a number.

Answer 8

Depends on your belief, so could be 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 13, 21 etc.

But no numbers are inherently unlucky.

Answer 9

Negative numbers are unlucky because then you don't have enough money in the bank to cover your withdrawals. Also, I hate when people "make change"--like, if the bill is $1.76, they give you $2.01 so they get a quarter back, that kind of thing. It took me soooo long to figure that out--it's confusing! I don't know why I had such an issue with negative numbers. Probably because they're unlucky.

Answer 10

Believe numbers are unlucky and you could be so caught up with you may make some big mistakes because of superstition. I do have favourite numbers though, just because I like them. I like 3 and 7. I started liking 7 when I was very young and before I knew it was considered 'lucky'.

Answer 11

9 is an unlucky number, apparently. my friend always says (near my birthday) you must be so unlucky being born on the 9th day of the 9th month. my other friend doesn't like the number 9 either for some reason or another.
