It’s hard to ignore the presence of a repetitive pattern of numbers, especially when it seems like they’ve been following you around. First, you wake up in the middle of the night at exactly 1:11 a.m. The next thing you know, you see 111 on a license plate during your commute. You might write it off as a coincidence, but some spiritual practitioners believe these repeated number sequences which are sometimes called angel numbers could symbolize a meaningful message from the cosmos. The spiritual meaning of angel number 111 suggests the universe is foretelling new beginnings ahead.

While some psychic mediums claim to divine unique meanings for angel numbers directly from angelic beings, you can also turn to the power of numerology to find symbolism in the repeating numbers in your life. Much like the planets in astrology, each number in numerology projects a different energy. In this ancient practice, the number one is associated with new beginnings and independence. Given the initiatory vibes of the number one, seeing 111 everywhere could indicate a fresh chapter opening in your life, or it may hint at a new frame of mind.

“The number 111 is a sign of unity with your inner voice, immense proactivity, and ability to achieve anything,” Anastasiya Kirilchik, resident astrologer and numerologist for the Futurio app, tells Bustle. “It symbolizes determination and courage.”

If you can’t seem to shake the presence of angel number 111, it’s time to familiarize yourself with the mystical significance of this trailblazing digit. Read on to learn the spiritual meaning of 111 and how you can use it to welcome new shifts.

The Meaning Of Angel Number 111

The number one in numerology is all about new opportunities, which often include a blend of fear of the unknown as well as an excitement for what’s ahead. It’s the very first of all numbers, so it’s a symbol of independence, confidence, and initiative. Since angel number 111 is a repeated sequence of the number one, you can think of it as an amplification of this courageous energy — urging you to drown out self-doubt and fear and take the plunge into something new. When 111 comes knocking at your door, it can be taken as a message to stay determined and keep moving on whatever journey you’re currently on.

“Number one holds the most powerful energy of the universe — the power of creation,” explains Kirilchik. “This is the force that gives a start to everything in our world, material or otherwise.” Ultimately, the spiritual meaning of angel number 111 is about personal power and independence. Seeing it is a reminder that you have the ability to initiate and manifest whatever you want into your life, whether that’s a new work opportunity, a relationship, or a refreshed way of thinking.

While the meaning of angel number 111 in numerology easily aligns with being at the precipice of a new chapter, its magic can also come to you mid-journey, when life’s uncertainties and upheavals seem to be swallowing you up in a sea of doubt. If you’re feeling discouraged about a current endeavor or hesitant to jump into a new situation or relationship, for example, 111 could be your loving reminder to have confidence in your individual power and give it a try.

Angel Number 111 In Love, Relationships, & More

The spiritual meaning of angel number 111 symbolizes opportunities and fresh energies coming into your life — and this applies to love as much as anything else. "The number one resonates with the frequency of new beginnings and doors opening," intuitive healer Laura Brown previously told Bustle. "When you combine numbers, you amplify the frequency of the number, and in this case [111] amplifies the manifestation qualities of the number one." That said, seeing angel number 111 may be a sign that a new relationship is on the way. It could be a good time to take the reins when it comes to manifesting your ideal partnership by doing a love spell or working with romance-enhancing crystals to set personalized intentions.

Since the number one is associated with taking the initiative and embracing new beginnings, seeing 111 could also be a loving push for you to make the first move when it comes to love. When this angel number appears, there’s no waiting around or wondering what could be. The energy of angel number 111 is urging you to assert your will, channel your confidence, and take action toward what you desire. Ask someone on a date or be more assertive when it comes to speaking up for your individual needs in relationships — the universe insists upon it!

What It Means If You See 111 Often

Do you feel drawn to angel number 111 — or perhaps feel that it’s drawn to you? If so, it could be a sign that 111 is your angel number, and that it’s time to align with its spiritual symbolism. Of course, the meaning of 111 is up for personal interpretation and can resonate differently for different people. Paying attention to your thoughts and emotions when you encounter this angel number can help you personalize your associations with it. That said, there are a few things to keep in mind when you see angel number 111 to make the most of its mystical messaging.

Open Your Heart To Opportunity

Seeing angel number 111 can be a sign that something new is on the horizon — but you just have to have the courage and attentiveness to welcome the beginnings that are coming your way. “If all of a sudden you start seeing this digit or combinations with lots of ones everywhere, this signals you are going through a very important phase of your life,” says Kirilchik. “Your angels are trying to tell you that you need to pay attention, otherwise you risk missing something of immense importance in your life.” Keep your eyes peeled for signs from the universe and keep your heart open to new opportunities.

Don’t Be Afraid To Make Moves

The number one is all about motivation, and its independence-driven energy is written all over angel number 111. That’s why it’s so important to use this number’s energy to level up your confidence and take action in your life. “Seeing 111 usually means that you need to make a decision and make it fast,” says Kirilchik. “During this time, you are likely to be visited by life-changing insights.” Be willing to face your fears, conquer your challenges, and seize the moment.

Trust In Your Manifestation Power

One of the most important messages for people seeing angel number 111? Up your manifestation game, pronto. "[111] has a very high frequency that amplifies even the tiniest of steps we take, making them stronger and go farther," Brown previously told Bustle. "It encourages us to strive forward with a positive attitude and to make a decision around what we are manifesting." The spiritual meaning of angel number 111 is about confidence and action, so use this energy to focus on your highest intentions and greatest aspirations. Your ability to bring dreams into reality is extra powerful with this number by your side.
