The 11:11 Phenomena
If you are constantly noticing 11:11 on your clock, you computer, your stove, your mobile phone, your grocery receipt… and just about anywhere else where you will find a sequence of numbers – you are not alone. Many believe that if you are seeing this sequence, your Spirit Guides are trying to get your attention.. trying to connect with you.
For the person who sees 11:11 this symbol has a deep and profound feeling to it that seems to emanate from deep within the soul or echo from a long forgotten memory – perhaps genetic memory. 11:11 does not necessarily have to be a ‘time’ displayed on a clock. In fact, the symbol can just as easily be acknowledged as four vertical ‘bars’ or lines ( |||| ). However, the two ‘dots’ or ‘colon’, as it were, that separate the two ‘bars’ as displayed on digital clocks ‘feel’ to have a certain purpose. When 11:11 is seen in conjunction with the ‘dots’ it will create a deeper reaction within the psyche than when the bars are displayed without them.
