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 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.
Spiritual Wanderer Course:
Being a lone wolf and a spiritual wanderer is a sacred calling in life – a unique and alchemical path of awakening. You don’t need to feel lost, alone, or stuck on your journey any more. It’s time to meet your soul’s deep needs for clarity, self-acceptance, and empowerment. Let us show you how …
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 grow and expand consciously. 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.
Shadow & Light Membership:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐ "Shadow and Light’s weekly guidance always rings true to my heart. Thanks for acknowledging my shadows and inviting my inner light. I always get excited to open the Shadow and Light emails on Sunday!" – Angela M.
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 – 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 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 evolve spiritually. 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 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 by 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.

Hi there for the past couple of months I’ve been seeing so many number synchronicities and repeatedly and the patterns I’ve been seeing is always double number single number like 2:23 or single number double number like 6:55. It happens nearly everyday but can be at all different times of the day and in any order but always the order like I mentioned above. Personally to me it means I’m on a repeated path or pattern, but keen to know others thoughts.
I see the # 1111frequently usually on a clock. Will stare until 1112 appears. I know it an inportant#. I am female
I started seeing repetitive numbers 3 years ago, starting with 1111, then 2222 etc. The other numbers that I see regularly are my birth date 16/10. Not always in that order, but involving all 4 numbers. I did some research on this, but I don’t know how to connect with them, what they really mean or how to work with them. I’m starting to wonder if this is connected to my late mum (my spirit guide??). I’m also frustrated by them as they keep appearing but my life doesn’t seem to change. I know that’s my job, but how can sets of repetitive numbers help?? I know there is a meaning here because no one else that I know has experienced this, but WHAT is it???
This is so powerful! I see 11:11 on the clock everyday at least once but usually both times. I also see 10:10, 12:12, and so in quite often as well. Mostly 11:11 though. I was on break from working and took my dog out, opened the email w this article and then came in only to notice it was 11:11! If that isn’t some kind of deep sign idk what is! This has been during a time where I have been exploring my spirituality and truly acknowledged my empathic nature. I am going through a struggle with my long term relationship and noticing his narcissistic ways and the way he drains me. I have been asking for more and more guidance with this and continue to notice these numbers on a daily basis. I needed this. Thanks!
i have a analog clock ⏰
i keep seeing the hands one behind the other for a long time at different times a lot of times it is 844 but at other times too some days many different times a day i cannot find any information on this any help would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve been seeing 11:11 a lot since January.
It started with glancing at the clock, then the phone, then the time remaining on the washing machine as walked up the stairs past the bathroom. Then it started with 2 bins that said 11 and 11 then a number plate. Then my boyfriend looked down at his phone and it said 111 and he hadn’t typed it. Then I had a parcel delivered and they emailed me the time and it said 11:11.
The love of my life and I met on 11-11-00. His address: 11110.
The number eleven has been manifesting itself through out my life. I was born at 11am on the 11th of June. Nearly all the planets were in the 11th astrological House. At the time my parents lived at a number 11. My brother was born on the 11th August. He married on the 11th January. I married on the 11th September. I moved to Portugal and lived at a number 11. My father until his demise lived at another number 11 in a different town. I moved back to Wales and lo and behold another number 11. The bus into town is a number 11. Recently however I moved to a number 51 but one day last month I checked the tempurature on my mobile phone and it was 11 degrees at 11.11 am on the 11th of the month. Phew!
I have been noticing in the past month or so 1111 all over and when least expecting to see it. Like picking up the phone to check the time, looking at a clock in public, looking at the car clock it’s just happening beyond what I would call coincidence. It happens when I’m not even thinking about it, but when I see it I pause and it rushes to me that this keeps happening. I have been trying to figure out what it means. I have seen other synchronicities like 2222 and 555 but 111 or 1111 have been most frequent and seem to be picking up. I would like to talk to someone who has more insight about this and maybe get a better understanding of what it means in my particular situation. I am going through some serious transitions soon with work and school and have for a long time battles with I guess what you could call a sort of dark night of the soul and feeling dissatisfied with my life and lack of meaningful relationships and a craving to reconnect to spirit. Is this part of that? I need some positive change and hope that what… Read more »
I have seen 11:11 for years. I flew from NC to CA a few weeks ago for holistic healing and am seeing it everywhere including pages of books I have stopped reading on. My question is how common is this for someone to see 11:11? Thanks!
