The 11:11 sign
I was in a place of losing myself and really being in a state of confusion and not understanding why the world felt so hard and uncomfortable, painful and challenging and stressful. I went into my prayer room, and I prayed and said just send me a sign. Let me know I'm not alone, I just really need to know that there is something bigger than me out there, and the next thing I knew, I started receiving these experiences with the numbers 11 11.
I would see the numbers dozens of times a day up to 30, 40, 50 times a week they would appear on any and everything imaginable from Billboards to license plates to mailboxes, to store receipts they just would show up and it was undeniable. So either I was losing my mind and really going crazy or number two the universe really was speaking to me.
What I'm talking about is that which is bigger than all of us and yet unites all of us in some way that we are interconnected with that aspect of life was letting me know that I was not alone and was about to open the doorway to a whole world of signs and symbols that I never even imagined possible.
Myrna: Did you researched what 11: 11 means? I know numbers mean something.

What is synchronicity
Simran: So often these numbers 11 or 11: 11 would appear and they'd make me pause. I'd go oh there's that number again. That's how the signs start. You may be seeing something else, maybe it's a cardinal, maybe it is a feather. There's something in your world that is appearing to you. Signs and symbols, communication, usually shows up in those moments that either you have a question that you're really struggling with or it comes along in the exact moment that you're dreaming about the life that you really want to live.
The numbers and the prompts or the, signs and symbols, communication, they show up as comfort you and to let you know that the Universe really does have your back. They will show up as confirmation.
Myrna: when you started seeing this 11-11 what was what was your next move after you figure it out there was a sign or a symbol?
Simran: I'm not sure which one it falls under yes so you know the signs showed up for probably four or five weeks before I got frustrated enough at not knowing what they meant that I again spoke out loud and that is a key point that I talk about in the new book signs. A lot of what has come to me is because I allowed myself to speak out loud and I think that our voices and our words have a lot of power.
The Four Pillars of mastery
I kind of frustrated yelled out either tell me what these numbers mean or make them stop and in the moment I got this knowing of what the 11 11 signified and that specifically signified a Gateway. A Gateway of, four pillars of mastery, that we are each to walk through to create Mastery in our lives and those four pillars are:
- physical
- mental
- emotional and
- spiritual
Every experience that comes in our way is part of that Mastery that we are here to allow ourselves to engage those, four pillars, to grow us in our spiritual maturity. Once I understood that and then I got downloaded with this visions of 11 11 magazine and 11 11 talk radio and books that I would write and things like that.
I began to discover that the Universe speaks to us in all kinds of ways every single day multiple times using everything around us.
Myrna: That is awesome. What is the difference between, signs and symbols, and synchronicity?
Signs symbols and synchronicity
Signs and symbols, as those types of things that appear as the mirror reflection, the momentary Guidance, the inkling to act or move or be inspired to make a shift or a change. That's why the subtitle of the book has to do with Pathways turning points and, divine guide posts, because signs will initiate one of those three things for you. Each of those has their own purpose.
Symbols to me are already full of meaning, they have a specific meaning, they stand for something, they are an emblem, they are a mascot, they are something that you use as a totem. So symbols would be something entirely different that you would embody the energy of. For example you may receive a cardinal as a sign at one time to be more colorful in Life or to be using your voice a little bit more.
Synchronicity to me is when we are completely aligned, when we are aligned in time in space in dimension, when higher self and lower self have come into Union. You will have moments of synchronicity when we really do master all four of those pillars and we become completely aligned in our masculine and our feminine. What you will discover is that synchronicity is all of the time, it is only when we are misaligned to synchronicity happen as these momentary instances where we all of a sudden go oh my goodness I had synchronicity.
Myrna: If you were to tell someone that's just getting started with signs should they should they get your first book Conversations with the Universe, or should they get your current book you are going to start from the top and go to the end?
Conversations with the Universe through signs
Simran: Start at either book The the new book Signs is a very comprehensive way to have an understanding of what signs are and the middle section is many other people and their stories about signs. So that you realize it's not just me saying it we're all seeing something we're all having this interaction and the third section of the book actually gives you practices to develop your own, conversation with the universe.
Once you've read this book that has just come out called Signs, if you want to go deeper and really understand some different examples and a lot of the other ways that the universe is speaking to you, then I would definitely go back and and order my first book Conversations with The Universe. It's a three-time Gold Award winner nationally and internationally and it has a tremendous expanse of how signs appear and how to incorporate that information in your daily life.
Myrna: We spent a lot of time talking about, signs and symbols, but as you said we're in synchronicity every day, but we only recognize it when we are out of synchronicity. For instance when I think about synchronicities I think about coincidences, there are no coincidences in life, every moment is as it should be. So um talk about that for a minute again, how we're always in synchronicity?
Simran: I have a section on synchronicity in the book. I do talk about things like deja vu, I talk about dreaming, I talk about some of those aspects of synchronicity. I think the best way that I can explain it is you're driving down the highway and all of a sudden there's an exit and you take that exit and you go off on this scenic route, but then you end up back on the highway. The moment you end up back on the highway there's that exact Fruit Stand that you were looking for, that is synchronicity.
When we go off on our Scenic routes, oftentimes we're out of the direction or out of alignment, out of time with exactly the things that we're supposed to line up with, synchronicity tends to happen when we get back on track and we actually are in the right place at the right time.
Self-realization comes with alignment through synchronicity
In my own personal growth and self-realization, after seven books is that synchronicity is everywhere. Our ego wants to look at only the good things, the things that we want as the synchronicity, but sometimes synchronicity is also that moment that you get fired from your job. That can be a synchronicity because that was a pivotal moment to get you back on track. So synchronicity can show up a lot of different ways, and in the end what the signs are attempting to do is to help you really become neutral and span out so you see life from this Grand perspective.
When you zoom out you see that all of the light and the shadow and the Darkness that shows up in your life, creates a really beautiful picture. When you're down in it or you're focused too narrow on the situation that you're in it either looks like dark or light or something in between that you can't quite figure out and so we stay muddled in that kind of confused state. But as we grow in our spirituality and we can really zoom out and look at the big picture of everything, we realize that every moment, every step through the light, every slip into the dark, every stumbling of confusion created a beautiful painting known as you.
Myrna: Tell us about your book Signs: Every day Encounters with Pathways Turning Points and Divine Guideposts. Why did you write it and what do you want readers to walk away after reading.
Using signs as a divine guidepost
Simran: I wrote Signs because after 10 years, I had learned so much more from writing the first book Conversations with the Universe, I wanted individuals of today to understand that despite what is appearing in life, that life may be hard at times, but we don't have to make it as challenging. We can utilize what life gave us as places to find reflection as moments, to Pivot and go down a different pathway.
We can use, signs and symbols, as a turning point to create a new life or a Divine guidepost to be that confirmation of a choice that we have made. I wanted individuals to understand how to trust more, how to expand on their intuition and that the Universe really does have their back. That they are in a partnership with Spirit whether they want to acknowledge that partnership or not, that spirit is always reaching out, whether it is numbers or songs or animal or books or experiences that are happening to them.
They simply need to look at each one and pause for a second and ask themselves where is that in me, what is that here to show me about me ,what is that inspiring within me? As you start to understand these things, as you start to grow your connection with the practices and the protocols that I placed in the third section, you start to balance out your masculine and feminine energies.
You start to see that your life is not one moment to the next moment, but entirely a Threading of golden experiences that are leading you back to the truth of your soul and your expression on this planet as a beautiful human being and it as a Divine expression of God.
The trilogy of being: signs symbols and synchronicities
Myrna: That's great, did you want to touch on your Trilogy of self-realization the living, being and knowing. Do you want to talk about those books?
Simran: Sure I would love to thank you Myrna, that's wonderful. I also published this year a Trilogy that really is the multi-dimensional experience of being human. If you had been given a set of instructions upon birth to come in with that you would be able to encounter any and every experience of Life the seven blessings start off with the blessing of life and in each blessing is a certain gift that we receive in that particular blessing. We actually have the gift of, signs and symbols, and synchronicities.
It's hard to see that this cycle of seven that you live through is going to be a cycle that you repeat over and over again because your growth as a human being and as a soul is not linear it is not circular.
