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.

You need to find a good church
I was born at 1:11 am and have always been the “different” one in my family. I also have the marks of a healer on my hand (the 4 or 5 lines below the pinky finger) as well as others. However, I’m feeling lost in life, as if I need to be doing something and am called to do something but I can’t find my way. I know I’m meant to help others and do in my current career, but I feel like there is something bigger calling me….I just don’t know what or how to get there. I feel like my birth time is significant somehow. Can you possibly help me connect the dots to find out?
I’ve noticed synchronicity for years, and it happens in bursts for me. In a single day, I’ll see 11:11, 12:34, 13:13, 3:33, 11:11, then wake in the middle of the night, and It’ll be 1:11 again. I’m never sure what the meaning or the message is, but i’ll make sure that I acknowledge receiving it. It’s my own way of trying to keep those lines of communication open.
That is very useful. I’ve been seeing not only 11:11 but many sequential numbers for last few months. Recently.started taking screenshot whenever i see one, and now i have an albumnfull of such screenshots. Most common are 11:11, 22:22, 23:32, 11:22…or repititions like 18:18, 14:14, 19:19, etc. I hope it manifests into something. I’ve been seeking spiritual growth for years now.
GRACIAS
My daughter was born a little less than a month early on 1/11/20. She was airflighted and had serious complications which was an incredibly traumatic experience for my husband and I. I feel this experience has reconnected me to something greater than myself and I have been noticing 11:11 on my stove clock daily. My first thought is that it’s my aunt Becky telling me that everything is going to be okay. My second thought is that there is something extraordinary about my daughter and I am being alerted to it.
i have been getting the 11.11 hits since 2009 , virtually daily and often twice a day … some examples of what an 11.11 hit is … sending a text to someone close and on pressing send its 11.11 , getting in the car to go tell someone of spirit and the 11.11 occurences and …. its 11.11 when you get in the car … going to bed and as you lie down and pull the sheets over you … its 11.11 ….. Time and Time again in many ways … its 11.11. I have been in his realm funny enough now for 11 years , i am at peace with it , it warms me. Since 2009 true spirit also somehow found its way into my being , born out of hope .. hope for all .. and in the 3 years that followed what seemed to be a mass of spiritual training … i peacfully can conclude that the only true essence of 11.11 and spirit is Peace and Content , helping others find peace and content , starting with the well being of your loved ones and close ones and folk you encounter on the way …… Read more »
It’s been like couple months and for some reason without even thinking about it I take a glance at the clock and it’s precisely 11:11. I don’t know what it means but I feel that I’m in a rollercoaster of feelings and emotions. When I see this number I can’t help asking for what I pray for everyday. Please help me understand what this means…
I have been seeing this number quite repeatedly (Many times 2 or 3 days back to back, sometimes twice a week or month) but this 11.11 is keep on popping out in my eyes and that too accidentally for 90% of time. Personally, I always try to be pragmatic and logical in all my thoughts. I always believe in purpose of each of everything that happen or occur, this purpose is sometimes understandable or sometime beyond the scope of understanding. Initially for few years, it didn’t go into my notice and I didn’t try to find the reason behind these accidental occurrences. I believe in the concept of body clock and I thought each time when it clocks 11.11, my body insist me to check the time. But this was not the case all time. Many times it happens people ask me for time and its 11.11 , sometimes I get message at 11.11 and my screen shines, 2-3 times my mobile suddenly dropped from my desk or bed and my when I check the mobile for damage or not its 11.11, Today I was typing a mail to my boss by keeping the my mobile in front of my… Read more »
I have been on my journey for about a year now,and i must tell you it is a rough ride! But if you are experiencing 11:11 please know that it is a powerful number. I happen to possess every number in numerology and know that i have been blessed beyond measure. I highly reccommend you all to keep seeking answers because it will lead you to self discovery and the truth. The fact that you all have questions or something tragic has happened in your life is what lead you to spiritual enlightenment. Do not be afraid,instead let your spirit guide you and ask your Higher power to guide you,follow your intuition and watch your life transform! Your soul is telling you that clarity is needed to find your True self. But in case youre wondering, it is a calling! one that you cannot ignore so embrace it,go within and self reflect and know that all answers are found in solitude because that is when and where our souls can reach us and when we pay attention so as to hear its voice. It does not matter what religion or belief you have, God is and all creation the bottom… Read more »
