Answer 2

synchronicity which can be defined as, “a meaningful coincidence; it is the occurrence of events that seemingly have no causal relationship, but are in fact related.”

It can be noted that a male and a female each contribute 23 chromosomes to a newly formed fetus, and every 23rd angstrom of the genetic coil an anomaly occurs. Human sex cells have 23 chromosomes. Other human cells have 2 sets of 23 chromosomes (23 from mother, 23 from father). Not to mention, the earth is tilted at 23 degrees, and the 23rd I-Ching hexagram indicates that it represents separation or breaking apart.

if really curious, discover number 9

Answer 3

The enigma is that if given the same amount of time and effort, numbers 22, 24, and all the rest can be given the same associations that #23 is currently in the spotlight for.

It's all just "spooky stories told around the campfire" fodder.

Answer 4

Most probably because Micheal Jordan wore the shirt number during his career in basketball. Then David Beckham wear the same number at Real Madrid.

The number has links to many different items. My favourites include the 23 chromosomes you are given from your mother and father in your creation, and that blood takes 23 seconds to circulate around your body.

Answer 6

They made a horror movie about it so all the little kids have jumped on the idea. You can pick any number at random and convince yourself it was an "evil" number. It's just hype.
