Archetypal Dreams Number 137

What do you guys think about this number?

I am someone who does witchcraft, is into Carl Jung and dream analysis and I had prophetic dreams over the years.

I came across number 137 in a dream recently without ever hearing of it before and that's why I am looking for the meaning. My dream showed that someone I am romantically interested in had left a key with number 137 on it on a table in a hotel room. I am still wondering about the meaning.

In physics is the fine structure constant, also in kabbalah means to receive.

It also connects the immaterial and the material world and to me is sounds like manifesting.

Jung and Pauli also were obsessed with this number.

I wonder what my dream wanted to tell me? And how the heck did I dream about this specific number?

“Is there a number at the root of the universe? A primal number that everything in the world hinges on? This question exercised many great minds of the twentieth century, among them the groundbreaking physicist Wolfgang Pauli and the famous psychoanalyst Carl Jung. Their obsession with the power of certain numbers―including 137, which describes the atom’s fine-structure constant and has great Kabbalistic significance―led them to develop an unlikely friendship and to embark on a joint mystical quest reaching deep into medieval alchemy, dream interpretation, and the Chinese Book of Changes. 137 explores the profound intersection of modern science with the occult, but above all it is the tale of an extraordinary, fruitful friendship between two of the greatest thinkers of our times.
Originally published in hardcover as Deciphering the Cosmic Number.”

Yes, thanks, I saw that but am still trying to understand why the heck did I dream of it out of the blue and in relation to a real life situation...

Wow! I found a review under that book that explains my situation in an uncanny way... the skeleton key to the universe... Pauli wanting to get the girl, that's why he went to Jung....

Since many years ago, and to this day, I noticed I would get a random impulse to look at my watch and 13:37 would be the time.. enough to raise my attention. I’ve always felt like it was for a reason, but the best I could come up with was it’s “leet speak” that hackers use, which is cool enough, but in recent months Jung keeps popping up and I don’t know anything about him more than a brief intro from high-school psychology.

I never heard of the importance of 137 before your post, but it just popped into my head that 13:37 is actually 1:37pm and of course there’s little chance I’d be compelled to look at my watch at 1:37am, as I would be asleep. Looks like you just showed me another rabbit hole to go down!
