The Founder
The quiet, grounded origin of 11:11 State, born from memory and the search for peace.
The Origin of 11:11 State
11:11 State was created by its founder in memory of his mum. She saw 11:11 everywhere for years—on clocks, receipts, and phone screens. For her, it wasn’t just a sequence of numbers; it genuinely meant something and offered a deep sense of comfort.
After she passed away, the founder began seeing the number everywhere himself. Every single time he noticed it, it served as a reminder of her—a feeling of warmth, peace, and a quiet reassurance that one is not alone, even during the hardest times.
A Shared Phenomenon
The project did not emerge from a desire to predict the future or preach mystical dogmas. Its founder has screenshotted the number over 340 times. It has been on the back of his phone, in his notebooks, and recorded in his diary since 2015. For fourteen-odd years, the pattern has followed him everywhere—or perhaps he has followed it.
“I’m not trying to force my beliefs on anyone. But here’s one thing I do know: the people who see 11:11 tend to have something in common. They’re the noticers. The feelers. The ones searching for something more. And I believe we’re all connected in some way—some beautiful way we can’t quite explain.”
“For me, 11:11 means hope. A reminder to pause. A reminder to keep going.”
Editorial Approach
At 11:11 State, the content is guided by a few core principles designed to keep the experience grounded:
- Interpretations, not facts: Spiritual meanings are clearly labeled as interpretations and beliefs, rather than absolute truths.
- Respect for both sides: Psychological explanations (like pattern recognition) are explored honestly, but they are never used to dismiss the personal meaning someone might find in a moment.
- No predictions: We do not make promises or predictions about the future, twin flames, or guaranteed outcomes.
- Wellbeing first: 11:11 State is a space for reflection, not a replacement for professional support. Please see our Wellbeing Disclaimer for more.
