Throughout history humans have been obsessed with numbers, trying to glean meaning from them and assigning them significance. There have been lucky and unlucky numbers throughout cultures. For instance, in China the number “8” is extremely lucky, as it signifies eternity. On the flip side is the maligned number “13” in many Western countries, and in Japan it is the number “4,” which translates to the word “shi,” meaning death.
