What Angel Number 404 Really Means And What To Do When You See It

From 1111 to 999, certain number sequences are thought to have specific meanings, appearing as messages from a higher power. In the case of angel number 404, here's what to know if you keep seeing this number, plus what to do about it, according to experts.

And when it comes to understanding and interpreting angel numbers when you see them, the key is to get clear on what was happening—or what you were thinking about—when you noticed them. As Richardson says, you might notice the clock at 1:11 as you were thinking about expanding your business, for instance, which would be a positive sign that your angels support that idea.

The number 4, on the other hand, represents foundations and a need to get back to basics, according to Firester. "It's a call to notice anything around which has been left under-nurtured, and a warning that these ignored things can fall to ruin," she explains, adding, "Seeing this number is a reminder to go back to a reflectional state and take an honest self-inventory of what you've been lacking in your life."

According to Firester, 404 is a sign from the universe that your angels (or spirit guides, the universe—any word you use to describe a higher power) are present and supporting you. "Any prayers you have been saying on repeat have been heard, received, and are being supported by the divine," she adds.

Keep doing what you're doing, knowing you are supported in your endeavors.

Angel number 404 can also relate to synchronicity, namely paying attention to synchronicities. As Firester explains, "It's letting you know that synchronicity is all around you right now. Your angels are trying to tell you they are there for you presently and they want you to look for their signs."

If you keep seeing 404, it's almost like you are being poked or nudged to stay attentive. Firester recommends starting to look for coincidences that are happening "a little too often to be anything other than divine assistance."

Lastly, knowing that 4 is a number about going back to basics, and 0 enhances all attributes of any other number it appears alongside, according to Firester, 404 can be a push to mind your foundations and take care of yourself.

If you're in a relationship and keep seeing angel number 404 when you're thinking about (or are with) your partner, Firester says it could be a sign to put more work into strengthening your relationship. "In a relationship, seeing 404 is a strong reminder to look around at what you can do in order to nurture anything which may be a little ignored lately," she tells mbg.

According to Firester, angel number 404 in this context is a call to nurture your relationship. As such, she says, "You may be asking for more in your life, but this number in a relationship reminds you to go seeking what you need in a place you already have it."

If you're single and keep seeing 404 when you're thinking about your relationship status, Firester says it can be a tipoff that some changes are coming your way. "Your angels are asking you to be on alert for signs and signals in the form of others, which are actually carrying their divine assistance," she explains.

Whether you saw it on the clock, a license plate, or a phone number, the angel number 404 is asking you to pay closer attention to areas of your life that might need extra nurturing or energy. The good news is, it's also a divine sign that the universe has your back, and you're being actively supported.
