Today's date is not only uniquely sequential but also it is the last sequential date for the millennium. Although many such sequential numbers came in the millennium, it cannot go further as 12 is the limit for months.

Treating it auspicious as per numerology many have planned for their wedlock and many expecting mothers are hoping to deliver a child today to bring luck also in to their lives.

As the astrologers and numerologists have suggested the date is a Shubhdin (good day) to start new ventures or new deeds and Shubhkarya (good deeds), a rush is seen everywhere to utilize the lucky day and push their own luck further.

When 8-8-88 occurred Japanese who take 8 as a lucky number tried to make use of the day.  Deliveries were planned one year ahead of it.  Caesarians were opted where natural deliveries were found not happening.  9-9-99 was treated as auspicious by Indians.  12-12-12 was the last repeating number in the date in the millennium.  Now, today is the last sequential number after 11 such numbers from 01-02-03 to 10-11-12.

We have to wait till next century to get some more funny combinations after 87 years which means the present generation may not get such a chance and the infants will be old enough to lose interest in a number game.
