Here is a quick reference guide to understanding the meaning of numbers, specifically number sequences. It is an appendix published in my book, Lifesigns: Tapping the Power of Synchronicity, Serendipity and Miracles. By using the Lifesign Process in combination with this reference guide, one can gain a wealth of guidance from the Universe. For an introduction to the meaning of numbers and the meanings of signs and symbols can be found in "The Spiritual Meaning of Numbers."
The following was paraphrased with permission from work by Robin Budhu found on www.spiritual-path.com. Refer to Chapter 16: Numbers as Signs.
Meaning of Numbers and Sequences
Meaning of 111 – Are you thinking about doing something new? Starting a new cycle? Perhaps changing something in your life, or have you recently changed something? The 111 sign would suggest that the change you are contemplating or have begun is the right thing to do in your life. Additionally, 1010, 0101, 1001, 0011, or 1100 may indicate that those changes you're contemplating are in harmony with the Universe. A 111 or 1111 can be indicative that what you are considering is not only the right thing to do, but it is the correct path for your spiritual journey and your reason for being here.
Meaning of 222 – Take a 222 sign as a confirmation that you are heading in the right direction. Perhaps you've recently changed your thinking about a matter, or you've recently started something new. Keep going. Sequences like 2020, 0202, 2002, 0022, or 2200, may indicate that those changes in thoughts are in harmony with Spirit. Numbers like 121, 1221, 2121, 2211, or 1122 mean that your current feelings or focus will guide you toward your life's purpose. Keep going.
333 Meaning
Meaning of 333 – Have you been asking the Universe a question? A 333 is a "Yes!" The Universe agrees with your line of thinking and your feelings. Similarly, sequences like 3030, 0303, 3003, 0033, or 3300, may indicate that your thoughts are in unity with Spirit. Whereas 131, 1331, 1313, 3311, and 1133 would suggest what you are thinking is correct for your soul's journey.
444 Meaning
Meaning of 444 - Have you been asking Source a question? Opposite to 333 is a 444, which is a definitive "No!" The Universe disagrees with your line of thinking and your feelings. A sequence like 4040, 0404, 4004, 0044, or 4400, may indicate that your thoughts are not in unity with Spirit. Similarly, 141, 1441, 1414, 4411, and 1144 would suggest what you are thinking is not the highest and best for your soul's path. Other authors have noted that 444 is a message that the angels or God's love are supporting you. While you may think these meanings conflict, turn inward to discern the true meaning of the 444. Spirit is the source of any sign, and even the angels may want to say, "No” lovingly. Always trust your intuition.
Meaning of 555 – While there are no single established definitions for single-digit numbers, a five often implies change. To have a 555 sign suggests that a life-altering thought or event has recently taken place. Whether you like it or not the Universe is telling you to move forward and follow these changes. A 5050, 0505, 5005, 0055, or 5500, would suggest the change in your line of thinking is in harmony with Spirit. Sequences like 151, 1551, 1515, 5511, and 1155 would imply the shift that has occurred or has crossed your mind is highest and best for your spiritual journey. Proceed to know that Spirit supports you.
Meaning of 666 – To have a 666 emerge implies there is an imbalance in your life. Perhaps you are focusing on the material aspects of life, or there is a mental or emotional disparity. It merely may suggest that your thoughts are unclear and you should discontinue the line of thinking which has preoccupied you. Sequences like 6060, 0606, 6006, 0066, or 6600 would suggest that those imbalanced thoughts are not in unity with the Universe. Also, 161, 1661, 1616, 6611, and 1166 sequences are Spirit's way of saying you are heading down the wrong path–one not aligned with your higher purpose. This is a wake-up call– turn within.
Meaning of 777 – When 777 surfaces in your life, it is Spirit's way of indicating you have learned a lesson. Congratulations! A sequence like 7070, 0707, 7007, 0077, or 7700, suggests the lesson learned or achievement is in unity with the Universe. A series like 171, 1771, 1717, 7711, and 1177 indicates that the lesson learned was necessary to proceed on your spiritual path. A job was well done!
Meaning of 888 – Whenever 888 surfaces in your life, take it as an indicator that something will come to an end. Perhaps you are in an emotional phase, in a relationship, or in a particular career. The 888 can forewarn you to prepare for the ending of a specific segment in your life. When sequences like 8080, 0808, 8008, 0088, or 8800 emerge know that whatever chapter in your life comes to an end, its end is in harmony with your higher power. When 181, 1881, 1818, 8811, or 1188 appear it'll indicate that if you continue your line of thinking there will be a completion of a cycle and a part of your life will come to an end, and it is in alignment with your spiritual journey.
Meaning of 999 – When 999 surfaces in your life, know that your thoughts at that time will cause the completion of a significant phase of your life. A 9090, 0909, 9009, 0099, or 9900, indicate your thoughts will initiate a change that will be in unity with Spirit. A 191, 1991, 1919, 9911, or 1199 can mean that the line of thinking (when the numbers emerged) leads to a conclusion or achievement along your spiritual path should you continue. Know that the completion is the highest and best for your spiritual journey.
Meaning of 000 – When 000 surfaces in your life, know that your thoughts are in harmony with Spirit. It can also indicate that the views are in unity with the grand plan for your life, your mission in life, and the reason you have come to this planet. Additionally, a 0000, 1010, 0101, 1001, 0011, or 1100 can also indicate that such thoughts are in harmony with your spiritual journey.
Number Patterns
2323, 2332, 2233 – These signs indicate that the Universe agrees with your current plans, intentions, or thoughts.
1234, 567, 789 – If you are seeing ascending numbers repeatedly, like 2345, it is Spirit's way of letting you know that your thoughts advocate improvement. When you look at these numbers hone in on what you had just been thinking. If you follow these thoughts your life will progress with the support of the Spirit.
9876, 543, 321 – If you see descending numbers repeatedly, it's Spirit's way of advising that your thoughts are recessive. When you see these numbers, know that if you follow your current line of thinking you will take a step backward or head in the wrong direction.
