What is the significance of 11:11? The answer might shock you. Have you ever wondered why you’re told to make a wish at 11:11? What makes repeating numbers so significant? To better understand the true meaning of 11:11 and what it stands for, it’s important to understand angel numbers. What are Angel Numbers Exactly? Repeating numbers (like 111 or 999) or numbers in a certain order (like 4321 or 5678) are known as angel numbers. Angel numbers are considered to be a sign from the divine. These numbers can be spotted anywhere — on a clock, a license plate, or even a room number here on campus. Looking for a sign at a crucial moment in time, then seeing a set of special numbers is known to be a nod from an angel. Now, why is 11:11 so important? In numerology, some New Age believers often associate 11:11 to chance or coincidence. Others believe that it is a signal from your angels, as they’re letting you know they’re close by. However, in other cases, 11:11 is seen as a new beginning or that you are on the right path going in the right direction. Afterall, World War I ended at the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month. If you’re constantly seeing 11:11, it could be because the universe is listening to you. Many believe that seeing this specific sequence of numbers is a sign for you to connect with your guides from the divine. So, why do people make a wish at 11:11? Since 11:11 signifies a time when the universe is listening to you, you’re meant to manifest at this special time. When you’re making a wish at 11:11, you’re supposed to put all of your desires into this one wish. This means it’s crucial that you eliminate any negative thoughts during your manifestation. Many people believe that there is a certain set of standards to be met for your wish to be fulfilled. If you look at a clock right at 11:11, this being the first time you’ve checked it since before 11:00, then you’re free to make a wish. Once you’ve made your wish, it is imperative to look away from the clock immediately. Your wish will not come true if you see the time change to 11:12. The next time you look at a clock, the time should be 11:13. Your wish will also not come true if you miss 11:13. What should you do upon spotting 11:11? If you’re not wishing for something to happen at 11:11, then simply take the angel numbers as a sign from the divine. Remember that seeing 11:11 is a little reminder that your spirit guides are always close by!
