777 or 07/07/07 or July 7th 2007.Yes... that's tomorrow.
Last year, on June 6th 2006, we witnessed hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia! (I'm sure you have guessed that this term comes from Greek. It means literally, "fear of the number six-hundred and sixty-six"). Those superstitious types freaked out last year when the calendar read 06/06/06.
On that "fateful" day, hexakosioihexekontahexaphobes panicked, avoided going out or doing something risky. 666, the "number of the beast", was threatening... Some fanatics even prophesied Armageddon and the End of the World!
Lucky for all of us, that day went on peacefully. We're still around!
This year, tomorrow to be exact, some people will have something to smile about on the 7th day of the 7th month, 2007.
Seven is a highly symbolic number in religious and popular traditions. It is the number of perfection in the Bible. Some even say it's a divine number. In Hebrew, seven (שִׁבעָה, Sheb3ah) is from a root word meaning to be complete, full, plenty or satiate. Number three was an equally revered number. So we can understand why the combination of the two most "loved" numbers are causing so much hype: Three times Seven.
Thinking and hoping that the triple appearance of the number 7 will bring luck, many people are planning important events for this first Saturday in July. Many brides and grooms will get married tomorrow, looking for a little extra dose of marital fortune.
Some women are planning to induce labor or have cesarean sections on Saturday, wishing to give their children a special birth date that will last a lifetime.
Triple Seven (or Triple 7, Three Sevens, Three 7s, T7, 777 or 7-7-7) is a common winning line in simple slot machines. Many are hoping to be lucky on the day bearing this triple seven number.
Hmmmmmm...Triple Seven (or Triple 7, Three Sevens, Three 7s, T7, 777 or 7-7-7) is a common winning line in simple slot machines. Many are hoping to be lucky on the day bearing this triple seven number.
I wonder if I should buy a lottery ticket tomorrow.
Who knows... I might be the next millionaire.... Hopefully even a billionaire ;-)
And what about next year? August 8th 2008 (888, 08/08/08)?
And the year after, September 9th 2009 (999, 09/09/09)?
And the following year on October 10th 2010 (10/10/10)?
Or the six number ones occurring on November 11th 2011 (11/11/11)? ;-)
We'll have to wait and see!
Until then, let's enjoy each day and share this joy with others.

I hate to sound 'the black sheep' of the town .. but I am not at into superstitions. They lack logic. They negate common sense.
There are many researches upon the secrets behind the numbers, especially those occuring in the Torah, Bible, and Koran.
In the Torah, there is the secret behind having a whole (ll) ..
In the bible, there is the indications of many ...
And in the Koran, the symbolism of the number never ends .. and for the number of the days that God took to make the world (7), the number of heavens(7) that are the reward for the good doers,the number of hells(7) for the evil ones,...
So, numbers could have their own system of meanings. But I think, that whether God has made his World in 9 days .. what is the difference to me? And was this going to lead to sublime the level of number "9"?? Could it be then the number of Luck??
We people like to associate things together in a very human-like manner. We tend to mix the fact with the illusion to live the Exaggerated Result!! We prefer things of fearful Sources than of the neutral one: Neutralism to us is Vague and filled with Voidness! We like the Omens and the Ill-Omens .. We like the Symbolisms and the gestures ..
Why?
Because we are simply not Perfect.
Because we are simply very slow in learning.
Because we are simply always afraid of Change.
Because we are simply against our own selves!
....
Apart from this ..
Hope that things have turned just right as for those who were into trusting the Numbers more than other sources.
And Wish you a happy belated 777.
..
Take care.
In the bible, SEVEN means COMPLETENESS or SPIRITUAL PERFECTION. Jesus said to “forgive SEVENTY times SEVEN“ In other words, He is saying, “Keep on forgiving until you are complete.”
In the casino, Triple Seven (777) is a common winning line !
7/7/2007 -> 7/7/2011 ...
In our everyday life, old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day!
