As you start to open your awareness to the higher realms, it’s common for repeating numbers to show up. Each has a different meaning. But one of the most powerful is the 1111 sequence. And, every year you can harness this energy on the 11/11 portal.

Sia-Lanu Estrella, manifestation expert and author of The Rainbow Tablets: Abundance and sacred co-creation, shares four rituals to make the most of this 11/11 portal.

Why is 11/11 so powerful in manifesting?

Most energetic portals, such as an eclipse or the 8/8 Lion’s Gate, are only open for a short period. This is where the 11/11 portal differs. It is a gateway into the new year and creates an elevated pathway right through until 1/1.

When you actively harness this energy, it empowers you to take a huge leap in what you are manifesting for the year ahead. This is referred to as moving to a higher ‘timeline’, which means you create a higher reality.

Why is this particular portal so potent? The 1111 and 11 sequences represent support from the higher realms, connection with your purpose and encouragement that great things are on the way. Added to that, the new year is a period of transformation and manifestation. It’s a time when people step out of autopilot and reconnect with their aspirations. This collective focus on manifesting dreams creates an enormous surge of positive energy.

To really harness the power of the 11/11 portal, don’t think of it as one day. Instead, see it as a bridge to 1/1 that will elevate you into the highest possibilities for the year ahead.

How to supercharge this 11/11 portal

These four rituals will help you manifest at the highest levels during this potent time.

+ Start a new manifesting journal – Most people start fresh and reconnect with their intentions at the dawn of the year. But the 11/11 portal empowers you to arrive at new year’s day on a much higher trajectory. Think of it almost as though you are folding time. Set your intentions as though it were the new year. Bring all of that clarity, commitment and excitement to the now. Go big. What does your heart really desire, with no limitations? And start a brand new manifesting journal to anchor this elevated energy in the now.

+ Create an altar – It’s important to have a physical reminder of what you are manifesting. An altar is the best way to do this. Choose a side table or similar surface that you will see every day. Then place objects that represent what you are bringing into being. If you are calling in greater abundance, you might choose a citrine crystal, a relevant book, and photos or paintings of what your life looks like with that greater abundance. If you are bringing in more creativity for a project or looking to travel, then your items would represent this. Your altar should make your heart come alive with joy. It should emanate the magic of the new higher timeline you are manifesting.

Create the altar on 11/11 and keep it there until 1/1. Consciously connect with it each day. This could be by lighting a candle or some incense on your altar. Or you could intentionally touch each item. And spend at least 5 to 10 minutes breathing this reality into your body and energy field. Feel it as if it already exists and breathe it into your cells. In this way, you are “encoding” this highest timeline into your being.

+ Hold an 11/11 ceremony – Ceremony connects the higher realms to the physical realm. It is how you access all the wonderful magic and blessings that are waiting for you. You might wish to make yourself some ceremonial cacao, which is a heart-opening plant medicine. Maybe you would prefer to sing or play an instrument. Perhaps conscious dance is what calls you. Or you might feel to just sit in nature.

Choose whichever expression of ceremony truly lights up your heart. Cleanse your energy field by smudging yourself with sage or palo santo. Then make an offering to the land and loving ancestors, such as feathers, shells or ceremonial tobacco. Next, spend time connecting with your intentions. Again, really feel them. Let your heart celebrate in the excitement, love and fulfilment of this new reality.

To finish anchoring it onto this plane, choose a small crystal. For example, for love, you could use rose quartz. Or for living your higher purpose, it could be clear quartz or a Herkimer diamond. Hold it to your heart and fill it with the full power of your intention. Then blow onto it to add your life force and plant it into the ground. Thank the universe for the divine support, blessings and guidance. And thank the Earth mother for anchoring this vision into reality on the physical plane.

+ Make embodied changes – Remember that the 11/11 portal will carry you all the way to 1/1. Use this time to stay focused on your intention and make embodied changes. Firstly, you will always manifest more easily if you start your day with a morning practice. The 10-minute Rainbow Pyramid Sovereignty Practice is perfect for this. It centers your energy and calls in the greatest abundance, magic and miracles in the day ahead.

Take three steps towards your goals each day. Whether these actions are big or small, they are all leading you to manifesting your dreams. So, celebrate them. At the end of every day, record your three actions in your manifestation journal.

Finally, surround yourself with things that raise your vibration and keep you excited about your vision. Listen to inspiring podcasts. Choose activities that energise you. And read books that ignite your soul, like The Rainbow Tablets: Abundance and sacred co-creation.

With these four rituals, you will harness the full power of the 11/11 portal and elevate your whole pathway into the new year. And as you arrive in 2025 already in your highest timeline, the year ahead will only keep getting more magical.
