In numerology, 11:11 is considered to be a significant moment in time for an event to occur.[1][2] It is seen as an example of synchronicity, as well as a favorable sign or a suggestion towards the presence of spiritual influence.[2] It is additionally thought that the repetition of numbers in the sequence adds "intensity"[3] to them and increases the numerological effect.[3][4]
Critics[5] highlight the lack of substantial evidence for this assertion, and they gesture towards confirmation bias and post-hoc analysis as a scientific explanation for any claims related to the significance or importance of 11:11 and other such sequences.[6] Through observations made in the study of statistics, specifically chaos theory and the law of truly large numbers, skeptics explain these anecdotal observations as a coincidence and an inevitability, rather than as any particular indication towards significance.[6][7]
