Numbers are the Universal language offered by the deity to humans as confirmation of the truth.
– St. Augustine of Hippo (A.D. 354 – 430)
You have just glanced at the number again on the clock: 11:11 am. A chill runs through your spine. Deep down you intuitively sense that this number has some kind of great importance … but you don’t know what.
If you have been seeing 11 11 and other repetitive numbers such as 111, 222, 333, 444, 555, 1010, 1212, 777, and so forth, pay attention! There is an important reason why you’re seeing these numbers more often: these numbers are wake up calls from your Soul and the Universe.
The Secret Meaning of Numbers
Numbers have a way of taking a man by the hand and leading him down the path of reason.
– Pythagoras
It was the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras who first popularized the idea that all numbers have different vibrational properties. Since then, modern science and mathematics have shown that the world conforms to precise geometric mathematical principles. These principles govern everything from gravity to the movements of animals and the habits of humanity.
It was thanks to Pythagoras’ discoveries about the world that the ancient system of Numerology was developed. Some scholars even believe that Numerology pre-dates Pythagoras and derives from the ancient mystical Hebrew Kabbalah which is thousands of years old.
Numerology is a system of divination that assigns various numbers unique meanings based on mathematical principles. According to numerology, everything can be calculated such as birth dates, names, and places to uncover deeper hidden truths.
11 11 Meaning
According to numerology, the number 11 is a “master number” which signifies intuition, insight, and enlightenment. When paired together, 11 11 is a clear message from the universe to become conscious and aware. Many people suggest that seeing 11 11 signifies that your spirit guides are attempting to contact you. In my experience, 11 11 seems to be the number of spiritual awakening, signifying that you are on the right path and your actions are aligned with your Soul’s purpose. In other words, seeing 11 11 is a good sign! An energetic doorway is being opened in which you will experience spiritual growth.
11 11 meaning in summary: You are on the right path and you’re being assisted by your Soul, spirit guides, and the Universe to consciously grow and expand. Pay attention, be aware, and remember to stay grounded in the present moment.
11 11 and the Spiritual Awakening Journey
Seeing repetitive numbers like 1111 is a form of synchronicity (or a meaningful coincidence) – it can be thought of as a wake-up call; a cry from your deeper Self to pay attention and be present.
In this way, we can see 11 11 as something of a meditation bell: you are being asked to tune into the present moment and the love/guidance that is always available to you. You are being asked to engage more deeply in the mystery and wonder of existence, understanding that there is an Intelligence much greater than yours at play.
Seeing 11 11, or any repetitive number for that matter is, therefore, an intrinsic part of the spiritual awakening process.
Not only does it instill a sense of curiosity and awe within us, but it makes us pause, stop, and question. Momentarily, we exit the asleep and trancelike (or samsaric) mode of living and access a more mindful way of being.
Therefore, if you keep seeing 11 11, you are probably undergoing a spiritual awakening process.
Other signs that you are “waking up” include seeing other spiritual signs and omens (like repeated dreams and animal encounters), experiencing heightened intuition, struggling with a Dark Night of the Soul, craving more solitude, feeling dissatisfied with life, and more. You can read more of these signs – and find out whether you’re having this experience or not – in our spiritual awakening article.
11 11 and Sacred Relationships
As we’ve just learned, 11 11 is a number connected to the spiritual awakening process.
Sometimes, part of that journey involves meeting your soul mate or twin flame – that is, entering a spiritual partnership (or conscious/sacred relationship) that is designed to help you grow on every level. If you have been looking for love and keep seeing 11 11, this might signify that your twin flame or soul mate is about to enter your life. Be open, receptive, and mindful of any signs or dreams that emerge during this time.

What Do I Do After Seeing 11 11?
As your consciousness expands, you’ll find yourself seeing numbers such as 11 11 more and more often. These instances are known as synchronicity because you are in the divine flow of life. Personally, I would see 11 11 and other repetitive numbers sometimes four or five times a day as I began to experience a spiritual awakening. All of these numbers seemed to anchor me into the present moment and the truth I was experiencing. I would always feel more grounded and lovingly guided during these periods, knowing that there was “something happening” beyond the veil of physical reality.
In order to make the most of seeing his unusual and powerful number, you might like to adopt a few practices:
1. 11 11 meaning and your life
2. Stay open and receptive
Ask yourself, “What does 11 11 signify to me?” In other words, when you see this number, how do you feel or what thoughts arise in your head? Your 11 11 meaning will often vary each time you see it. For example, one moment it might mean “pay attention!” and on another day it might mean “you are on the right path, keep going.” You might also like to try journaling about your observations to take these reflections deeper. Learn more about how to journal.
Be alert to new opportunities for growth. 11 11 often signifies that a period of change is about to start within you. Remember that all people, feelings, and situations that you come across are chances to spiritually evolve. Ask yourself, “What new opportunities or doorways are being opened to me?“
3. Remain grounded and present
Our tendency to live through the mind creates immense stress and anxiety. During this awakening period, try to stay grounded in the present moment. You might like to practice mindfulness, deep breathing, meditation, or other grounding practices to help you stay centered. The more present you can be, the more you will be available for growth. When you don’t stay grounded, you might miss the message that is being offered to you.
4. Show gratitude
Life responds positively to gratitude. Even the simplest act of giving thanks for what you have and the guidance you’re receiving, uplifts your spirit immediately. Being grateful opens the heart, and when your heart is open, it is ready to expand. As a result, gratitude helps you to more deeply integrate the messages and lessons of 11 11.
5. Ask for guidance when needed
All of us, no matter who we are or what period of life we’re in, need help. If you need advice or help, reach out to someone you trust. Speak with a close friend, family member, spirit guide, or best of all, your own Soul. One of the simplest but most effective ways to receive guidance, in my experience, is saying a prayer. Address your prayer to whomever or whatever you believe in, whether that be God, Goddess, Allah, Krishna, Life, or Spirit. I prefer to address my prayers to my Soul. Seeing 11 11 is often a sign that you need to reach out for support and connection.

Have you seen repetitive numbers like 11 11 recently? I’d love to know what they meant to you. In what ways are they special to you on your spiritual awakening journey?
For days now I’ve been looking at the clock exactly when it was 11:12 and feeling disappointed like I was just missing something. Now tonight I finally got 11:11, so I must have something right…. I’ve just got to figure out what it is.

I see the number 11:11 a few times a day. I also catch 12:34, 12:21, and 3:33. I truly am not sure as to what it means. This has been going on for years. I’m going through a tough couple years in my life and I’ve been “stuck”. So my only feeling inside towards this is maybe all the chances to move forward and fix my life, I’ve chosen to ignore them because I’m scared of change. The man I love and could never love another, and he has never left me (not to say we haven’t had rough patches) but I seen that the number means a new love. We both truly tried moving on, but after 2 years it almost broke us both inside. We are still together now.
The other number I have seen my whole life in almost everything I do, have, seen, where I go… is the number 6. Whether something adds up to 6, or it’s just 6. I’m born March 6th 1986. My dog has same bday. My other dog is born June 12th (6th month, 6+6=12) my 3rd dog is December 21st (12:21 for the time I see, and 1+2+2+1=6) my niece is June 6th, my grandpa and best friend is September 6th. My daughter is the 11th month. My fiancé is born the 24th (2+4=6)… my locker combos, my daughters crib in the NICU was 6, license plates, credit cards, and it keeps going my whole life. I walk in stores, and the number 6 is in multiples usually. I just wish I knew what the number 6 truly represents.
I would like to share this kind of feeling when seeing repetitive and synchronistic numbers like 11:11, 111, 222, 333, 444, 555, and so on, every time I saw it feels creepy, and I just thought it just coincidence and just ignore it even its been a month and still saw it every where, mostly in my phone clock. Then one time, I saw interesting post in Facebook about 11:11 then out of curiosity, I search it and found out this site that finally enlighten me I still dont know what this mean for me, but I hope its good.
I see 11:11 almost everday and often several times a day. I also see the 2:11, 3:11, 7:11, 9:11 constantly. I also see 12:12, 10:10, 333, 444, and 555. I have no clue what the universe is trying to tell me although I know when I see these numbers that they are significant. My own personal numerology number is 11 too. Not sure what is going on in my world and where I am supposed to be going but I do feel the need to be doing work that has social significance. I am trying to stay open and receptive but it’s quite difficult right now. Any advice would be welcome.

I have seen the number 11:11
Hello,
About 8~9 years ago, 11:11/1:11 seeing every day had been continuted more than half a year. That period, I don’t know what’s the meaning, but many of the greatest changes in my life have taken place during that time.(include loving, working and familly)
In about 1 and half a month ago, 11:11/1:11 seeing every day appeared again. before this phenomenon, I quarreled with my girlfriend about her not wanting to get married and have kids ,I was thinking about breaking up with her, and finding another girl to marry. (I was start to get along with her like a stranger) .Meanwhile, I began to have a crush on a girl I met on the bus every day (since about 1 and half a month, the time when I began to crush on this girl and I began to see 11:11/1:11 was about the same) . Slowly, except for sleep, all I think about is this girl. Until last week, I got up the courage to hit on this girl, but she turned me down(She said she already had a boyfriend). Even so, I continued to see 11:11 every day more often.
So the phenomenon seeing 11:11/1:11 more often, is talk to me to break up with my Ex-girlfriend? and keep hitting on this girl who I have a crush on ? (Remark, I am 34 years old, I really want to get married and have kids.The girl I have a crush on has just graduated, I and her age gap of 12 years, we are both Aquarius. )
Looking forward to reply, Thanks.

22 is double 11 but 12 years is a big difference at her age. It sounds like you need to end the relationship you’re in currently if you and her do not have the same long term goals.
I wouldn’t leave GF for crush as she is seemingly in a relationship and might not be ready for those long term goals you have set for yourself. But once you are no longer in a relationship, maybe she’ll feel differently later.
Maybe you’re seeing the 11’s cause you need a transition and not necessarily a new immediate relationship.
I’m no expert just old and wise (ish) :-)
Hello,
For the last few months I’ve been seeing 11 or 11:11 every single day sometimes five or six times a day! It’s almost become a distraction! I’m not aware of any real significance regarding these numbers! Is it just, pure and simple, a coincidence? And nothing more?
