In response to these two blog posts about 11-11-11,

I received this feedback:
“Go to Google and look up newsworthy events that happened on the 11th of the month and you will find some pretty significant events.”
It’s unclear whether or not the person behind this anonymous e-mail was urging me to consider 11-11-11 as exceptional, but it sounds like it.
Fair enough. Let’s also look up events that happened on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th, 30th, and 31st—all the other days of the month besides the 11th—and you’ll find, surprise, that the 11th doesn’t include any more significant events throughout history that any other day of the month.
See for yourself. This site lists important events throughout history. Compare events on the 11th to any other date and you’ll find that the 11th of the month (of any month), by itself, isn’t very remarkable: http://www.historyorb.com/day/january/1
Common question: “What about 9-11!?” One data-point isn’t a trend. Furthermore, extracting dozens of 11s (“11 crew members,” etc.) from 1000s of possibilities is mere selective attention (and amateurish).
As I point out in the linked blog posts above, the day, month, and year alone are only a fraction of the hundreds of factors in comprehensive numerology charting. Any other date could very well have many more times the amount of 11 energy than 11-11-2011. Also, 2011 is 4 (2+0+1+1=4), not 11. So 11-11-11 is really 11-11-4. The 11 of 2011 is only a minor sub-factor.
11-11-2011 is one of the most overstated and irrelevant dates ever.
The top 10 11-11-11 myths:
- Those who don’t “quantum leap” into their new selves on or before 11-11-2011 will suffer.
- Individualities will be foregone for global unity and there will be great catastrophes in the process.
- Possessions will no longer be important, and law enforcement and military will cease to exist.
- There has never been a more perfect time to pull back the veil that separates us from universal consciousness, but it will be painful.
- 11-11-2011 (and 2012) concludes a 15 billion+ year evolutionary process.
- We are moving at light speed toward unity consciousness, from duality consciousness.
- After 11-11-11 an era of infinite peace and prosperity will usher in.
- 11-11-2011 is the most important harmonic gateway thus far.
- Stepping through the gateway will activate your higher purpose.
- You will be able to elevate your vibration and integrate your higher-self.
Notice something unique about most of these assertions? They are intentionally incomprehensible and immeasurable—there is a total lack of tangible meaning. This is the type of language that ensnares the uninformed and the I-would-never-consider-if-it’s-total-nonsense-I-just-like-how-it-sounds-and-feels crowd.
Unfortunately, hype and sensationalism drive the majority of the New Age market; it’s not spirituality, it’s escapism.
Ignore the propaganda and fear and go out and enjoy yourself on 11-11-2011.
