22
Apparently 22 has a lot of resonance to purpose in life and has a strong spiritual connection. There's a lot of positive energy and vibration around intuition, effort and purposefulness that I am called to share with humanity. It seems to revolve around making dreams into reality which involves being pragmatic, ambitious and focused.

10
This number appears to represent determination, independence, confidence, leadership and accomplishment - having everything one needs in order to be successful. It's about seeing things through wholeheartedly rather than incomplete or unfinished tasks. Having the inspiration, ideas, solutions, drive and will to succeed in anything that the mind is focused on.
Some known/recent sightings:
- My birth date
- The day, month and year of when I (narrowly) survived a single car incident (my car was wrote off as a result - mangled mess)

- New house number where I moved to

And so on...
Once you start seeing it, you see it everywhere, and that's without trying or thinking about it. Coincidence? That's an individual thing - it's what you choose to believe in. I feel there is a strong connection with these numbers but I can't explain further why. Weirdly (without deciding to), I first began making notes on this blog post on the 10 April 2018.
Making sense of it
I can definitely see how these numbers have meaning to me given the descriptions. I do feel a strong sense of energy, purpose and movement about me (possibly an odd thing to say). Especially how I have developed myself personally (struggled in finding out who I was) and professionally (making something of myself), there's real evidence here for these. But there has always been something in me that has put the 'voices' in my head to push myself further and move outside of my comfort zone. I guess it explains why I have strong proactive energies that have enabled me to do some things that I might talk myself out of. Plus, I am at an interesting part of my life right now having moved home, new job and generally being more wiser.
By no means am I right, or wrong on this matter. But after searching on the meaning of these numbers there seems to be a lot of spiritual knowledge (and my own evidence) that these numbers definitely have significant meaning to me. It seems I need to listen to myself more and truly apply the spiritual and empathetic gifts I have, as I know that I don't use them to their best potential. I'm fully aware there's something meaningful happening behind the 'spiritual veil', I'm not sure when or how it will reveal itself, or maybe it has and I don't know it yet? But it does feel like one of those things where all the stars are aligned. Crazy beautiful stuff I'd say! I need to devote some time to understand this further. It is an interest but usually after work I'm mentally exhausted and some weekends can be hectic. Or I could do with speaking to someone or something to show me the way, as a lot of guidance suggests it's a kind of awakening?
EDIT:
On a dark autumnal night in October 2021, I was pondering over this topic. Still seeing 22 in many forms and occurrences and giving a smile or nod to them. Though specifically I was thinking about the years:
- 2010 - mainly was about me taking lead of myself and my life. it was such a revelation year and one that showed a lot of personal growth. Not being a follower that I once was
- 2022 - leading into the next year, after the burst of interest in Movement Medicine. This is the start of something quite incredible in my life and my own spirituality and wonder if 22 is and was part of this awakening/redirecting all along? Weeks prior to this pondering, I put my name on a waiting list to join a small tutored group in Movement Medicine for January 2022
I may well report back here as the years go on.
