[Opinion] Does anyone sleep with their leg in the number four shape?

[GreyBird]

I have always slept like this on the tarot hangman. My hands are on my chest not behind my back like on the card. Just wonder if anyone else sleeps like this and what it might mean.

There are only so many combinations of positions that human joints allow. Having one leg straight and one bent with the ankle over the leg to form a "four" figure is a common sleeping position.

In addition to what therootbeersprite said, some people with different health diagnoses may also sleep in seemingly odd or unusual positions compared to many. I have hypermobile joints, for example, and there's certainly some unusual positions that are more comfortable for my joints that would be extremely uncomfortable for others. While I'm not saying that there isn't any significance to how you sleep, I generally wouldn't assign much meaning to it by itself. Or at least, not spiritual meaning.

So long as you don't wake up in your neighbor's closet, suspended upside-down from the ceiling in that position, you should be good to go, unless that is, you wake up smiling. But hey, to each their own. Sometimes though a bat is just a bat, an not a omen, and sometimes your body will initiate spontaneous kriyas. Seriously though, meditate in that posture. Invoke it. Not only is the position comfy but it is also instructive. Using various body postures as mudras, both in magickal practice and in ecstatic trance induction has a long history. It is well worth studying.

Yes, also the position you sleep in can be genetic. I've always slept most comfortably with my right arm above my head, since I was a baby. It's the same position my father slept in. There is a whole matrix of reasons that can lead to certain sleeping positions. When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras.
