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:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐ "I started the Spiritual Wanderers Course a short while ago and for the first time in twelve years I have started to experience love, acceptance and compassion for myself and within myself. Thank you so much." – Vivienne S.
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.

i’ve been seeing 11 11 alot for quite a while didn’t not know what to make of it, My birthday 11/09/65
Hello ALETHEIA
For a couple of years now the appreance of 11:11 had always caught my attention. When ever it appeared I felt there was some kind of message for me to say I’m on the right path. When ever this happened I was always in a good fram of mind and full of positive thoughts, and rarely appears when you are having a rough time. Now something I have never seen before was I had 11:11 showing 10 times in a row, what had happen was I read a message and then forwarded it to 8 others and the time it’s self on my iPad and the time I read message. Each message was read and sent at 11:11 . I had read somewhere the more you see in one time the more the meaning, it gave me a sense of excitement. I took a snapshot of it for me to see any clues .
And last thing is I had 11:11 tattooed on my shoulder with the Roman numerals striked with a old clock arms to remind me to believe what I feel.
Thanks .
Since the start of this new year 2018 I have noticed that when I look at the clock on my phone it would be 11:11. Took me until Thursday Last week to really realise that i have been seeing this number every day. I mentioned it to my husband and children and they suggested to make a note of it every day as it could be a prediction of time of of death of someone close. (Mom very ill). This morning back in my office cellphone ring and time of call 11:11am. I am going to start taking snapshots too and see what happens.
Thanks
Very Confused
Last year around this time of the year. I started seeing double digit numbers and suddenly I started to see triple very often and I could not seem to understand the meaning. I’m not sure if I’m meant to see it.
47… All the time, ever since I was a teenager. Receipts, clocks,etc. My first love was named Anna- that was the 47th most popular girls name the year she was born. The mother of my children was born on 11/24 which is during the 47th week of the year. My 1st son was born 47 days after Xmas. I ended up getting 47 tattoed on me 20yrs ago. 5 years after that I moved to Portland OR and discovered that there’s a 47 society- which was started,of course, in Portland
Light and love to all
And a big hello to Aletheia!
My name is J.J. and I very much enjoy your readings. There has been a huge shift in my conscious and unconscious collective the last couple years and its definitely been a roller coaster to grasp onto,but about the significant numbers…
I am always seeing or running into the number 711…does anyone have any insight…its those 3 #s in that order all the time…so much its scary! It can be different peoples addresses that I know…address of past counselor, surgery date…significant dates of close friends….time on clocks or odd things with numbers…searched it a bit but haven’t gotten to much info…I appreciate any comments…email is jerralynhart87@Gmail.com
Stillness and peace!
I have seen 11:11 three times now. I believe it is a message from my spirit guides letting me know that I am being divinely guided and protected. I have been going through a very deep intense emotional healing so I feel comforted knowing that I am on the right path. I am changing my life completely by leaving an unsatifying work environment and relationships that no longer serve me. I am excited about the future and am patiently waiting for my financial remuneration so I can continue to do my true calling as a Reiki practitioner and spirit medium to clients which I have been doing part time for the last 16 years. I also plan to relocate to Denver Colorado. Thanks for sharing.
I decided to read this out of curiosity, but I have to disagree with this article. There’s nothing magical or mysterious about 11:11. Sometimes I can see it twice a day. For me it’s more like “BINGO” in my head, and I never give it a second thought. I guess I just like seeing 11:11 randomly during the day, but it doesn’t tell me a thing, and I know it can’t change anything in my life or anyone’s life. This article basically says believe what you want about this number. Sometimes I see it when I’m in a good mood, sometimes when I completely don’t care, or am stressed out. I don’t think I can say that I’m on the right path when I’m stressed out. As far as gratitude, we all know we need to show that to others, even without help of numbers. This number won’t bring luck or defeat in your life. It’s just a number. Don’t go beyond that. I don’t know why people pay such big attention to numbers.. Don’t define yourself by numbers.
Hi Aletheia Luna, What could the significance of the number 22 be in my life? I had that as my laundry number as a boy in the boys home, I won a raffle on a TV show by having been given the number 22. throughout the years I have seen the number 22 wherever I go. I get a feeling of inner comfort and excitement when i see 22. I have read in a number of place that 22 is a master number, but also can serve as a number to guide you on your path. My life-path number is 6. Could I also please ask while on the subject… (normally this is where I would wait for an answer from you if we were talking in person and depending on your answer, would depend on how I would proceed… please forgive my rudeness…) I have been searching everywhere to find an answer to this question: my wife and I have now been separated for two years. we met she was 23 and I was 25. She already had a 4 year old boy. We had another son and a daughter together and I treated them all like absolute crap. Never intentionally but I did. I have been diagnosed with Bipolar 2, never an excuse but can explain some reasons… now my question is, my has many times had very detailed dreams about what i was doing and they were true!Not just where I was being unfaithful but where I was not feeling well or things that were going to happen for me at work. I Don’t believe I am psychic, I am currently a student of psychology however I do believe there is a lot that cannot be explained in text books or research, like the second part to my question (well third actually… after the number 22 part) which a couple of times I have dreamt of situations that have involved her even though I am not living with her and haven’t for a couple of years and when I have woken up it felt like my insides had been ripped up. I then found out what I had dreamt on both those occasions were true… i believe their is a spiritual answer for this, but I can’t find it. I mentioned the Bipolar to explain things, but I know that it is not because of it. I do apologise for taking up so much of your time and everyone else’s.

Hi Jason. As I’ve mentioned in previous comments below (in the comments), numbers are very subjective and personal. Systems such as numerology give them objective meanings (such as being master numbers or symbolizing certain things), but it’s really up to you whether you believe that or not. I know this might be a frustrating answer, but meaning is personal, so I encourage you to listen to your inner voice and find the answer. In this article, I simply share my own perspective of what 1111 means. Personally, 2 represents duality, but 2222 could symbolize mastering duality and transcending the material world. Once again, listen to your inner voice and you will find the answer that is right for you.
For me, it’s always been 222 and it started when I was a teenager (I’m 39 now). It was like a revelation of sorts, came at me like a ton of bricks. I know I was going through a lot then; my parents were divorcing, my dad got cancer, and I felt very depressed and alone. I started questioning everything and felt like I just didn’t belong, couldn’t really connect. I started seeing it EVERYwhere. I woke up at 2:22 am, saw it on license plates, hotel room 222 scoreboard buzzer, 222. My nephews bday is 2/22. I have seen 911alot lately too, and 1111. My birthday is 12/12. I understand more about 222 and numerology now than I did 20- ish years ago. I knew it was special and meant something though, even though I didn’t know the specific meaning. Im new and I’m so glad I found this. I recently read Old Souls and feel like I’m experiencing another revelation. I couldn’t be happier! I’ve always felt odd and disconnected from most around me. I can connect to very few (genuine) people. ❤️ Thank you!
I have been seeing the numbers 911 over and over. It could be clocks, birthdays, receipts etc. Sometimes it happens more than once a day. I was wondering if it was a warning?
Here’s the thing: there is no objective meaning to these numbers. The meaning is very subjective and completely up to you. Try tuning into your gut feelings or intuition; what is this number telling YOU?
