There are so many powerful angel numbers, but perhaps the most compelling is 1111. You might think it's because 11:11 is an easy sequence to catch on a clock, or that one is a numeral that's used in so many things (addresses, phone numbers, etc.). But the truth is, if you're seeing 1111 a lot, it's the universe trying to send a unique message just to you.

And while other angel numbers, such as 2222 or 8888, offer guidance and positivity, 1111 focuses on all the good ( “such as, people being saved from some life-threatening occurrences or circumstances,” says Vincent Genna, spiritual teacher, psychic therapist and host of weekly radio show, Stop Stopping Yourself!), and is there to reinforce your decisions, no questions asked.

But that's just the main points of what this angel number has to offer for you. There are plenty of other little ways it can help you in your life, including with love, finances and more.

What does angel number 1111 mean?

The ones signify new beginnings. Whether you’re about to embark on a brand-new passage or you’re already on the right path, seeing 1111 coincides with that. And when you see it, experts say you should focus and use it as an indicator that you're on the right track.

“1111 is a very high vibration number that communicates confirmation, especially as it pertains to spiritual discovery and journeying,” says Lady Tracey Bond, innovator, co-creator of the DoubleOHHSevenEffect and spiritual author.

What does it mean to see angel number 1111?

When you see 1111 — a time, on a piece of paper, on a license plate, a phone number, on a sign, etc. — angels are trying to tell you something. It’s time to connect with your intuition. Whether your life is about to change for the better or it’s signaling you to take action for a positive outcome, have faith. A good transformation is near.

“When [you] see 1111 repeatedly, it means that [you] have not understood, accepted, or believed in the message,” explains Genna. “It is believed that the angels will keep trying to get the message through because they are persistent.” Stop being stubborn or obstinate. Pay attention, act on the message, and the number will stop repeating until the next message.

How can 1111 help you in your life?

No question, everyone can benefit from 1111 energy and the concept (and belief!) of angel numbers.

  • In grief: If you’re grieving the loss of a loved one, seeing angel numbers will comfort you. “Accepting people who noticed repeated angel numbers throughout their day felt comforted that the angels were trying to tell the grieving person they were there supporting, loving, and comforting them,” Genna says.
  • In uncertainty: According to Bond, 1111 can benefit people who feel uncertain about a major life change coming up or if you need to make a critical decision. The numbers serve as a sign.
  • In plans: If you are working towards a project or goal, seeing 1111 is a reminder to keep going. The universe is telling you that you’re on the right track.

What does angel number 1111 mean for love and career?

If you've been questioning whether you should have broken up with your partner or if you should take that new job, the angel number is here to re-assure you.

“Angels communicate with celestial intelligence, via signs and wonders through color and numbers,” she points out. “[The number] 1111 is a confirmation for reassurance that the soul is journeying on the right path.”

The most important thing is to make every decision truthfully, so that the angel number can clearly reinforce what you are feeling.

How can you tap into 1111 energy?

If you want to harness the power of 1111, you may want to manifest it and make it happen. But, does that work? Genna says that belief is everything. “The whole reason angel numbers developed was out of the belief and desire to believe the angels want to communicate with humankind,” he points out. So the short answer is, you can tap into 1111 energy if you focus and pay attention. Then, you’ll notice the numbers show up in your life.

“The more you believe the numbers are a way to connect and receive guidance from the angels and the more you keep paying attention to when those numbers appear, the more often the numbers will appear and the stronger the messages will become.” Essentially, believing taps into your divine abilities.

Bond agrees. If you trust your higher consciousness, you can actively co-create your own reality by tapping into 1111 energy. “This may be harnessed with consistency and meditation, ultimately leading to greater concentration, multi-sensory awareness, intense creativity, and eventual manifestation,” she explains.
