What Are Angel Numbers ? How to Trust Your Intuition And Follow Their Guidance
Have you ever seen repeating numbers on clocks, license plates, or receipts and felt a deep sense of knowing – a gut instinct – that it was more than a coincidence? This phenomenon is the universe’s way of getting your attention, and these sequences are known as Angel Numbers.
But what are angel numbers, really? They are divine messages sent to guide you, and learning to interpret them begins with one of the most important skills you can develop: learning to trust your intuition.The phenomenon of ‘Number Sequences’, sometimes known as ‘Angel Numbers’, is becoming more and more prevalent day by day. Thousands upon thousands of people from all walks of life, from all parts of the world, and from every creed and religion, are reporting the phenomena of noticing particular number sequences on clocks, timers, car number plates, billboards, and from all kinds of sources.
According to respected authors, therapists and spiritualists around the world, this phenomenon is occurring as a new ‘Spiritual Awareness‘ is taking place and gaining momentum on our planet. As a race, people are evolving on a spiritual level, with the number sequences being ‘messages’ from a Higher Source.

How Do the Angels Send These Messages?
Your angels (or spirit guides) guide you through your thoughts, feelings, words and visions. They also show you ‘signs’ – that is, things that you see repeatedly with your physical eyes. One of the signs is repetitive number sequences.
According to renowned author and therapist, Doreen Virtue, in her book “Healing with the Angels”, “the angels do their best to get our attention and to communicate with us. In this way, they help us heal our own lives. However, we often discount the signs that they give us, writing them off as mere coincidences or our imagination.”
Your spiritual support team uses two gentle methods to show you these numbers:
- A Nudge to Look: They might subtly whisper in your ear, prompting you to look up at just the right moment to see a specific time on the clock or a phone number on a sign. The goal is for you to recognize the pattern.
- Physical Arrangement: They can also orchestrate events in the physical world, like having a car with a specific license plate drive in front of you. They want you to notice the sequence and become curious about its deeper meaning.

When you notice a particular number sequence recurring for you, ask the angels what they are trying to tell you, and you will find that your angels will give you additional information. Monitor your thoughts carefully, and be sure to only think about what you want, not what you don’t want.
Meet Your Angelic Support Team
The word “angel” comes from the Greek word angelos, which is a translation of a Hebrew word meaning “messenger.” Angels are genuinely destined by name to be vessels of divine communication. These messengers play an important role and work diligently to aid and guide you on your journey.
Who Gets an Angel?
A common question I hear is, “Do I have to be religious to have an angel?” The answer is simple: absolutely not.
Because certain religious connotations permeate many cultures around the world, the word angel might draw or lead to assumptions that a people must be religious to have an angel or even an archangel presiding over them. However, that is far from the truth. Anyone can have an angel, regardless of their religious background. There is no limit to the number of spirit guides, guardians, and messengers you might amass throughout your lifetime.

I encourage you to allow your mind to view your angels in the way that feels most supportive, authentic, and comforting to you. For some of you, it may take the shape of an orb of light. For others of you, it may not be something visual but rather an awareness of a presence or energy around you.
Your spiritual support team is vast and can include:
- Universal Angels: Beings tasked with the well-being of humanity, focusing on areas like health, abundance, love, and life purpose.
- Guardian Angels: Your personal protectors, tethered to you from birth to guide you through life. Everyone has at least one of these guardians assigned to them.
- Spirit Guides: These can be deceased human entities who have felt a pull toward you – ancestors, loved ones, or even souls you’ve never met but who feel a connection to you.
- Archangels: Powerful spiritual leaders who oversee major areas of life and can be called upon for specific needs.
From the chief Abrahamic archangels to our personal spirit guides, any and all of these divine beings work to care for our spiritual well-being. They will make themselves known to us if the need arises.
The Seven Major Archangels
There are countless archangels stretching across all faiths and denominations. There are seven chief archangels. The two most important and only canonically referenced within the Bible and Quran are Michael and Gabriel. Though not explicitly named in the holy texts, Raphael is referenced, marking him as one of the three most prominent archangel figures. The remaining four are Uriel, Raguel, Zerachiel, and Remiel. Each has their own title, area of governance, and patronage over a sacrament.
Archangels can come to your aid if you have invoked them for a specific purpose, if you have directly addressed them in prayer, or if your needs relate to their sacrament or patronage.

A Divine Reminder for Your Path
The recurrence of these number sequences is a subtle and constant reminder that something magical something Divine is happening in your life.
When you see these Angel Numbers, take a moment to acknowledge them. Recognize that your angels are confirming you are on your true path. In that moment of recognition, simply say, “Thank you.” This small act of gratitude strengthens your connection to the divine and opens you up to receive even more guidance.

This personal awakening is part of a much larger shift. The ancient Mayans, with their extraordinary skills in astronomy and mathematics, created a calendar that marked December, as the rebirth of our world. This date symbolized a monumental shift in consciousness – a movement away from separation and toward oneness.
Every time you see an angel number, you are not just getting a personal message; you are participating in this beautiful, collective evolution. You are remembering that you are connected to everything and everyone. You are on your path, you are guided, and you are exactly where you need to be.
