Tips
- From a numerology perspective, a double of anything (especially something rare like a double-yolk) symbolizes the number 2, which is the number of duality, intuition, and sensitivity. It's the number that most resonates with the soul or the soulful side of the self. Seeing a pair of anything, especially when it is a rare occurrence, is a message similar to that of 222—everything is going to be okay. Everything is working out for the highest good of all concerned. It's a positive message to keep the faith that all is going to turn out for the best.Thanks
