Since I’ve started posting publicly about all things spiritual, one of the top questions I’ve been asked all these years is still: “What are angel numbers? What do numbers mean?”
The spiritual community LOVES angel numbers - and I totally get it, they’re super fun and quite honestly they’re one of the easiest signs to notice from spirit. They’re accessible and a nice, little uplifting moment for your day.
Aside from just numbers, Spirit is actually constantly sending us signs all the time. We probably receive hundreds of signs a day, but we don’t necessarily notice them because we’re too preoccupied with a billion other things.
So, one good way to make sure you receive your sign is to straight up ask for it, say something like: “Angels, thank you for giving me a clear sign that I notice today!” Or “Spirit, I am open to all ways you wish to communicate with me today!” Or “Universe, thank you for sending me clear noticeable signs that are messages about my path, today!”
Whatever feels good to you, say it, declare it, and above all know that you can and will see some sort of sign. Expect to see that sign!
It also might not always be numbers.
Sometimes it’ll be a song. On several occasions in the past, whenever I’ve had moments of doubt the song “Don’t stop believin’” by Journey has come on whether through shuffle or just over a store’s radio, it’s awesome and always makes me smile.
Sometimes you may hear signs via overhearing blips of other’s conversations (maybe they’re talking about someone winning an Oscar, and your dream is to win an Oscar!).
You may see signs through posts on social media, literal signs on the street, the words you see when you open up a book, or even when spirit works through others and someone pays you a compliment for the exact thing you were doubting.
Signs could also be through light!
When you see a flash of light, it’s usually spirit getting your attention or saying hello! (I personally remembered to write this because as I did I just got a random reflection of light flash in my eyes from a picture frame that did not produce a flash earlier)
If you hear a ringing in your ear, it’s usually spirit downloading information to you!
Whatever your sign is, be open to receive it. Don’t think too much about it, don’t overthink and wonder “is this my sign? Oh wait no, is this my sign?” Simply just ask for your sign and then let it go. Forget about it almost, because then when the actual sign does come, you’ll suddenly remember you asked for it and realize this is it!
So, back to the numbers. What do they mean?
Alignment!
Seeing multiple of the same number in a row is a sign of being in alignment with your true self. So pay attention to what you’re doing / thinking of when you see those numbers, that is a clue for sure.
For example, say you’re writing a novel for fun and look up and see it’s (the classic and famous) 11:11 … that means you writing that novel, enjoying yourself, is you being your truest, most aligned self!
The angel numbers will also come in to assure you everything will be okay and that spirit and your angels are always with you.
Each number has it’s own meaning, so I’ll explain 0-9 in a quick way to help you easily remember!
If you see a combination of numbers, then it means it’s a combination of those messages.
0 - a symbol of eternity and connection between all living beings (we are one, we are all worthy)
1 - new beginnings, manifestations coming to fruition (this is why people say make a wish at 11:11)
2 - harmony, partnership, balance, (romance as well!)
3 - have faith, divine timing, the ascended masters are with you
4 - your angels are with you, inner strength
5 - big, positive change is coming!
6 - material needs (it assures you not to worry about your material needs, that spirit will take care of it)
7 - true alignment, right path, dreams coming true, destiny,
8 - abundance, wealth, infinity (8 really is just the infinity symbol!)
9 - end of a cycle, let go of what no longer serves you, spiritual enlightenment
If you are looking for a deeper, in-depth source of angel numbers, especially the combinations, I highly highly recommend this blog: http://sacredscribesangelnumbers.blogspot.com/p/index-numbers.html
I used to use this religiously to type in whatever number combo I’d see. this blog has so many variations! They have up to 4 digits so it’s very thorough.
But above all, trust your gut and what you feel is right! It’s nice to get a detailed explanation of a number, but it’s also nice to check in with yourself to figure out what it means.
For example, say you see 3:47 when you look at the clock.
You remember that 3 is having faith , 4 is angels, and 7 is right path. So you can deduce that this means that your angels are encouraging you to have faith that you are on the right path.
Then, use your own intuition to check in and ask the angels, “Thank you angels for this number, what does this mean? What message do you have for me?” Quiet your mind and wait for answer. Like I always say, at first we think we’re making it up, but the more you practice, the easier it’ll be to trust. Everything that pops into your head will come for a reason, so trust it!!
Hope this helps you! :)
