11 is my favorite number. I’ve always been drawn to it and enjoyed the symbolism despite the fact that I’m not a numerology buff.

Symbolically, 11 is a “master number;” two objects coming together to double in power. It stands for the synergy of opposites: male and female energy, darkness and light, work and play, thought and feeling. In my opinion, this balance is one of the most valuable things a human being can find or cultivate.

11 represents perspective and individuality in the midst of perfect harmony…two entities standing alone, but strengthened together.

Is it any wonder that years ago I envisioned 11/11/11 as the perfect wedding day? I still swoon just looking at the date because it’s so…symmetrical. Like a design or code. Of course, the aesthetic and symbolic qualities of a wedding date are hardly as important as, say, an actual groom.

No matter what, I will host an amazing 11/11/11 party as a celebration of all synergistic relationships we are lucky enough to have.

Now before you go thinking I’m just a sentimental fool, I’m certainly not alone. Much has been made of the 11:11 wish concept.

I’ve seen many cards on Postsecret referring to it.

See? YOU may be someone’s 11:11 wish. Have a lovely evening…
