I have also taken note of the number 47. My awareness of the number started in early 1980's when small cokes at fast food was 47 cents and the 747 plane was introduced. Like others it pops up everywhere for me. Like I turned 47 in 2000 or my wife thought she was 47 when she was 46 (math error) and she had to be 47 two years in a row.
Or the other week I visited IRS office to make my monthly payment. I have been doing it for a year and every time in the past the room is full and I have to wait an hour or more. Last week I went as usual and the room was empty. I noted the condition as very unusual pushed the button for my waiting room number. Number 407 popped out and I got instant service.
Indeed it is a strange number. I get impulses at 47 minutes past the hour, like look at my phone or pick up phone to call someone I am think about. only to be told that the called was thinking about me. Or I am sitting at a stoplight behind a car with 47 in the license plate number 9 times out of 10 it seems.
How many movies have you watched and some actor spouts a random number and it is 47. For me seems like every movie.
The real clincher for me was discoveries I made when I read Bill Brice's a Short History of Nearly Everything, great book with lots of information about us,our universe and our discoveries as a species.
Clincher 1. The human egg when fertilized starts off with one cell. Then the egg splits into two cells, each cell splits again and again, doubling the cells every time the cell split occurs. After 47 cell splits guess what you have. A Human being fully formed ready to be born.
Clincher 2. The earth and the moon interact due to gravity. The earth's rotation is affected by the moon much like a brake on the speed of the earths rotation. Every day the earth rotations slow down, today is longer than yesterday. Eventually the Earth's rotation will slow to a static condition. At that time it will take 47 days (24 hours) for the earth to rotate once.
It is also a prime number. All I can do is wonder and beware of it's occurrences.

This number is following both me and my friends, my license plate numbers used to be BR47ADA (I am from roumania)and I almost died in that car, and in the last couple of years I only look at the clock when it shows 47, and that s out of the blue, I do not intend to look at that time ...moreover it always appears to me in phone numbers,bill numbers...EVERYWHERE!! My two lose friends became obsessed with it because it always appears, especially on significant moments of our lives...we are terrified...At least, I am for sure disoriented...I wish I knew if it is my lucky number ...or is it a sign ? what is it? Help!!

I see this number and many other numbers like 11:11, 9:11, 12:34, on mobile, pc, number plates, etc. Most of my roll numbers in school and college are 47. My Dad was born in the year 1947, mom December 21st, son September 24th. Weirdest thing is when I sum up all numbers of GPS coordinates for my residence, boom, I get 47. Not but not the least, I'm 47 now :) There must be some higher intelligence guiding us all and telling us we are on the right spiritual path, hopefully :)

About 9-10 years ago ago my friend told me that he see's the number 47 everywhere and I didnt think much of it, but ever since it was like it just blatantly popped up infront of me all the time! i remember feeling very confused and disorientated about it but as time goes on, it's actually pretty comforting when it pops up every day, it almost reminds me that there is something bigger out there that understands us, more than we understand it. That's what I take from it anyway, it also kind of confirms to me that reality is truly objective. And I don't know how to put that feeling into words, if you know you know. I was also born on Independence day, 4/7.

a rapper named Capital Steez actually was convinced 47 was the number of the universe. He was really talented and killed himself by jumping off a building right as he was getting famous. He hid the number 47 in a lot of his songs and put it in song names (interlude 47, 47 piirates, ect.) and his name in Jewish numerals equals 47. He killed himself on 12/23/12 tweeting out "the end" at 11.59 pm right before the end of the night and then jumped.
12+23+12=47
He obviously had some strong belief in this number (as well as beliefs in the power of the third eye, ect.)
I always thought he was just crazy and that we lost a great artist for nothing, but then I stumbled on this page and I don't know now. Maybe he wasn't just crazy

Capital Steez from Pro Era was obsessed with the number. He believed that it was the universal number and that it was a perfect number. Also, in the chakra system, 7 energys throughout the body, your 4th chakra is your heart and your 7th chakra is your brain. You should have the two balanced , as well as all chakras balanced. Peace, Balance, Love.

when you open your mind with psychedelics, or any other natural way, the number 47 becomes more visible then usual, let me tell you

I typed in what 47 means on the internet and came across this page and am glad that it isn't just me and my friends who see this... one of my friends said about it to me and another mate and that day we went to McDonald's and I ordered and my order was number 48 and we laughed a bit cause it was so close, but then they started shouting for order number 47 to collect there order and no one appeared, the McDonald's worker was hopelessly walking around shouting 47 and no one was there so who even ordered it? I also see it on a daily basis especially the time 7:47, I also walked down a road where every house number was in numbers apart from 47 which was written to read fourty seven, it's just all weird but clearly has some meaning, it's clearly no coincidence!

Oh, hi Mark. Yeah.. ever since 2012, i've been seeing synchronicitys everywhere. Started to explore it and other things these last few years and oh man.. its amazing. Found out that I was a "light worker" from seeing 911 a lot (one of the signs of a lightworker, have all the traits of one) went into occultism and found out more. This universe and world isn't what it appears, but its beautiful. Time to awaken.

it has been my favorite since i was about 14. i couldn't decide why but the number just popped out at me, kind of like steez i for some reason find it to be a perfect number. it seems to make itself present when i need it. ive always felt a presence behind ever since i can remember and i always wonder if thats the connection, looking up the meaning of 47 and how it comes up in history and religion was really mind opening.and the same thing happens to me alot where ill watch movies and shows and the characters just happen to yell out 47 for some reason. it pops alot. but to this day it hasnt caused me harm same with the presence behind me so i take it as a blessing.

For the past year I’ve become obsessed with the number 47. I don’t see it everywhere but it has become the number that first pops into my head all of the time.

I haven't seen 47 all my life, but these past 5 years I've seen it at least 10 times a day. It doesn't matter what I'm doing, I see it somehow. For example, I was playing a game and it gives you trophies on how well you place in a game, and literally for every character I landed on 47 and even my overall trophies got to 4747. I sleep at 47 sometimes randomly, i constantly look at the clock at 47, my music on my phone had 47 mins, I've seen a license plate that just at 47 and also a bus number. literally as I'm typing this my battery was at 47% at 1:47. wondering if well see 47 if we take dmt

I was telling this guy from Pof some things about myself that came to mind and looked down and my phone said 1:47,I gasped and said it’s 47 after and I’m obsessed with the number 47 he said really? Well I live at 4700. Also I was doing background checks on some guy I wanted to date but wanted to see how accurate it was so I looked up myself. Said I lived on 47st and lot 47. I never lived there but did apply to live there decades ago

4 and 7 are the two secrets codes in the Bible. Every time you see number 4, number 7 is there. I will be give 4 examples:
1.God rested the 7th day and gave the 4th commandment as rest/ sabbath
2. God told Noah: in 7 days the flood will start. 4 families were saved.
3. a 4th person was in the fire furnace which was heated 7 times (Dan 2)
4. JOSHUA formed a group of 4 to tour Jericho 7 times ( Joshua 6)

The number 47 started appearing everyday...everywhere...from about 2 years ago!
I just don't know what to make of it.
