If you see the sequence ‘1234’ and take it to mean that a deceased loved one is watching over you, that’s great. But here’s the thing: While angel numbers might be akin to astrology in terms of provable accuracy, if you take them as a sign to improve your life or to be a better person, go for it. Are Angel Numbers Real?Īgain, the concept of angel numbers is rooted in numerology, a pseudoscience which, according to Merriam-Webster, means, “a system of theories, assumptions, and methods erroneously regarded as scientific.” Basically, there has been no actual, scientific proof that seeing the same sequence of numbers over and over again means anything. Sequences containing 3’s, on the other hand, are seen as a reminder that the universe knows what you want and what you are working toward-a message of support to keep doing what you’re doing, if you will. For example, repeating 1’s are said to be linked to forward motion, and encourage the viewer of said numbers to take healthy risks or move projects or relationships forward.
Folks who follow numerology also agree that the repetition of certain numbers relates to certain messages. For those who believe in angel numbers, seeing them can be seen as a sign of affirmation that you’re on the right track, or as inspiration to pull the trigger on something you’ve been debating doing.
