A few days ago Netflix dropped the Stranger Things Season 5 Official Teaser. I noticed the running time immediately. 2:47. That’s 11, 11. Double eleven might be a clue regarding the heroes of the final season. We have Eleven and now another. The Duffer Brothers were quite clear early on in Season 1 that Will Byers is tied directly to the Upside Down, now more than ever in Season 5. Lore duality lives at the heart of the narrative. Tolkien and D&D. The password to enter “Castle Byers” was a subtle hint. Radagast. What class is Will’s D&D character? A wizard. Who is Will? Alatar, one of Tolkien’s Blue Wizards.
Getting back to the running time tie-in to 11:11 let’s take a closer look through the lens of an expert. According to Kaitlyn Kaerhart (pronounced care-heart), Mystic, Astrologer and Author of the international best seller You Are Cosmic Code: Essential Numerology “11 is also associated with spirituality, creativity, and innovation — all things worth connecting to in the face of a new beginning or fresh start,” from “1111 Meaning: What This Angel Number Is Plus How To Work With It.”
“If you are seeing the number 11 repeated, you’re connecting with your intuition in a new and powerful way.” — Kaitlyn Kaerhart
