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:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐ "Receiving these messages is a beacon of light and hope for me in currently very challenging times. The words of wisdom speak right to my soul, guiding and encouraging me further on my path. I highly recommend Shadow & Light to everyone who seeks to develop and cultivate a relationship with the Inner Self." – Karin
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.

I have been noticing the occurrence of the numbers 11:11 twice daily for over a week now, and I’m curious if anyone can provide an explanation for this phenomenon.
THIS NUMBER MEANS A WARNING OR an IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR !!!
Interestingly, I heard the year is often analyzed in numerology. Considering that you mention meeting on the date 11/11/11, this implies that special dates can be analyzed with numerology, including the year. I was skeptical of this at first, but weirdly enough, looking up the numerology interpretations of the recent years, 2023, 2022, 2021, and especially 2020, have had weirdly accurate meanings in numerology. It’s a bit spooky, really. I mean, it’s not going to give very specific information on what will happen, just general themes, big picture lessons, and possibilities, but it’s still eerie hearing them nonetheless. Especially the online analysis on the year 2020 in numerology.
Yes, I second you there AnonymousPerson, it is quite uncanny. Undeniably so!
Hi,i’m looking more and more this number specialy when we have a full moon,please help me if you know what’s the mean?!!
The full moon is said to increase energy – so the meaning, in my opinion, would be everything said in this article, except enhanced. :)
You have not lived untill this becomes a reality for you.
Once you start experiencing this manifestations from the sub-conscious into the conscious, your whole life ia changed.
I have a big story to tell that will not fit into this small comment section but I have seen miracles unfolding in fornt of my eyes.
My special nr is 33, 22, 11:11, 9:11, 10c coins I pick up everywhere but my first experience started with nr 33.
I will never forget, I sat in my car and I saw the nr33 on the clock, I look at my odo meter and the last 2 nrs is 33. At that moment It felt like a biological or universal clock kicked in and it litterally felt like there was a shift in my perception where it moved from the sub-conscious to conscious and from that moment on in 2016 I started seeing nrs everywehere.
3 years later I turned 33 years old and the day before my bday I prayed and asked God for guidance on this very important date, when I opened my eyes the Bible fell open on Ezekiel 33 and the chapter have exactly 33 verses. It talks about the Watchmen and the prophetic gift. I was so shocked to realise, what is the chance that from the whole Bible after my prayer the Book fell open on Ez33:33 and I realised my calling. Many interresting things and sequence of events followed after that. On that same year the process of restoring my identity of the surname that belonged to our family started and was complete.
I needed money once for an urgent matter, I picked up a gold coin for the first time in my life and when I went to sell it to be able to pay my bills the weight of the coin was 33.09 oz.
I came to the realisation that we are loved and cared for more than we know.
The list goes on and on as each day have their own miracles, we just need to be open to receive it and as we progress on the Spiritual path by hard work we will harvest the fruits.
this has been happening to me since i was a kid though. numbers are a human invention, quantity is not. the clock and method of recording the “passage” of time is a human invention. doesn’t make any sort of spiritual sense to apply undue meaning to a human construct.
This is a great article. I started feeling uneasy about suddenly seeing these repeat numbers several times a day. But now will just be grateful, and more aware!
My late husband and I the day we met added up to 11 and the day we got married added up to 11. His birthdate and my mine add up to 11 then my birth year & his birth year add up to 11 and then 3 of our 6 children from previous marriages their birthdates each add up to 11. Then to top it all off we purchased a yorkie and lo and behold her birthdate added up to 11.
nothing “unusual” about these number at all. :)
Why do spirit guides not contact directly .
that is their direct line. and they will communicate directly, if you are open to receive. more meditation can help with that.
Hi Emily, Do you have suggestions for meditation? I do have a hard time meditating.
I feel like I have been in a spiritual battle for the last 14 months..I’m being told to kill myself and obey another God. I am very into Only One God and he is my savior.. This is a 24/7 thing.. I’ve even checked myself into mental hospital 3 times. But was controlled there also to not say a word.. So I live a lie each time I’m asked How are you doing.. I say great or just fine. I’m really a very strong person.. I’ve just discovered what the numbers mean. That is uplifting my soul.. I see 11:11 a lot and the other numbers also more recently. I just reached out today to discover that these are my Angels trying to get through… Thank You LORD… I NEED YOU…❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Cheryl I am so sorry. We are definitely in a spiritual war. There are things that make sense to me now, that I could not understand why they happened to me more than my friends or family. I have even received injuries in exact areas that we need our Chakra to flow. When you’re feeling low reach out to a family Member or friend that you can have a lighter conversation with. And make a point to tell it to go away
every day you need to tell yourself “I do not want to commit suicide. I do not want to die. I want to live. I want to reach my goals and be successful.” You need to tell yourself this, think this every time you think to yourself “I want to kill myself”. It truly works, but it will take time.
they just don’t communicate in human language, why would they. expecting that seems a bit silly doesn’t it? Without paying strict attention and trying very hard while remaining calm and unemotive can we even communicate meaningfully with other humans who don’t speak our language.
I see triple and Drupal numbers all day long. And I write down the numbers and what all they mean a blah blah blah blah yet I have the most miserable life I have the worst luck I’m unemployed I had a house break in and I’ve been hacked my identity it’s been stolen I don’t understand what I’m supposed to gain from this because I’m miserable as a person
It’s bad for unknowingly being unenlightened by one’s own ridiculousness. 🖖
If you are a strong light soul, The dark is going to come after you with all its got. Some of the things that you have experienced I have been experiencing. But not my family or other friends. I have always been a sensitive. And looking back I have always dealt with attacks. They want you to feel down and depressed. Because that means they’ve taken out a light. Talk to source. Talk to your guides your angels. Talk to a family member or a friend. And when I say talk to them I mean just have positive conversations about anything. I know when everything is pounding down on you it’s very hard. I am going through it too. But do not let them win. Try meditating. Get outside and walk in the fresh air go barefoot on the ground and connect if you can. Hug your pet. Eat and drink positive energy foods. And keep learning about your spiritual ability. Take care, You got this.
? and the people who have no living or close family or friends to speak to? You’re suggesting he talk to himsef? “Talk to source. Talk to your guides your angels”.

Actually, these numbers are meant to be read in order. 111 is like starting with the number 1, then 2, then 3 and so on. . . until you get to the version of 9 with 999. 111 just means you’re beginning awakening, but that doesn’t mean it is completed with 999. Though even when it ends with 999, the cycle would usually start again with 111 when you begin something new. Also, you are in different levels of awakening in different areas of your life, whether relationships, career, health, spirituality, and so on. 111 does not mean significant change has come yet, only that you have gained a self-awareness in life that allows the potential for significant change to come in your current long-term goals.
