God often uses numbers to help us understand his creation, and that’s demonstrated over and over again in the Bible. The number 333 is itself a symbol that’s thought to represent the Holy Trinity, unity, and many other spiritual possibilities. So if you’re seeing 333 in your daily life, it could be something of a message. We’ll help you make sense of it by filling you in on its possible meanings, how the number 333 appears in the Bible, what to do when you keep seeing it, and more.

This article is based on an interview with our numerologist and life strategist, Michelle Arbeau. Check out the full interview here.

Things You Should Know

  • The number 333 might represent the Trinity—the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—or a sense of unity and wholeness.
  • 333 might be an inverse of 666 (the number of the beast), reminding you to stay vigilant and to avoid sin.
  • Many say that seeing the number 333 is a sign that love or a new relationship is just around the corner.

Meanings of 333 From God

  1. The Trinity is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—3 persons as one. There are many symbols that represent the trinity, from triangles to shamrocks. 333 may be another of those symbols. The 3 appearances of the number 3 remind us that God is 3 persons in one, a fact that’s hard to wrap our minds around, and so we use metaphors like 333 to help us understand.
  2. In Matthew 26, before the crucifixion, Jesus prays 3 times in the Garden of Gethsemane. Each time, he returns to the apostles and finds them sleeping, rather than keeping watch. [1] Seeing 333 could be a reminder to us to keep watch for evil and to stay vigilant in our faith, as Jesus did when he prayed in the garden.
    • Strengthen your faith by talking to like-minded people. Talk to other people about your beliefs to get fresh perspectives that will, in turn, enhance your own beliefs.

  3. In Revelation, 666 is said to be the “number of the beast.” Some Bible scholars say that the number references the tyrannical Emperor Nero, and that it encouraged Christians to know their enemy and stay strong in their faith. [2] While 333 doesn’t explicitly appear in the Bible, its status as the inverse of 666 reminds us to know not only our enemy, but our savior—God.

333 in the Bible

  1. The passage states: “Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and wondrous things you do not know.’’ [3] This passage promises that God will reveal all his mysteries in time, and tells us to have faith and turn to him in times of trouble. The number 333 may be a reminder to put our trust in God.
  2. The Psalm reads: “Sing a new song to him; play skillfully on the strings, with a joyful shout.” [4] The psalm tells us to give praise to God. And not just to give him praise, but to do so joyfully. Seeing the number 333 may be a much-needed reminder to give him thanks, even when we’re feeling low.
    • Praise God by attending a church service, or simply by reading and contemplating scriptures.
  3. In Genesis 15, God tells Abram to sacrifice a 3-year-old heifer, a 3-year-old goat, and a 3-year old lamb. Afterward, God promises Abraham that his descendants will prosper. [5] The number 333, then, may be a valuable reminder of this pact to us in the present day, telling us that if we have faith, we’ll be taken care of.

Spiritual Meanings of 333

  1. The number 3 is often thought of as a number of harmony and good fortune. Seeing the number 333, then, could be a sign that you’re on the right track in life. [6] It could be that you’re hesitant about your career, but the number 333 is here to put that hesitation to rest. Set your goals high and keep working toward them—success will follow!
  2. Threes often express optimism and hope, and are also a sign that things are coming together. In your spiritual life, this may mean that your mind will soon expand or that you’ll soon find new perspectives that enhance your understanding of both yourself and the world around you.
    • Deepen your own spirituality by striking up a conversation with a stranger. A new perspective from someone unexpected is a great way to learn new things.
  3. The number 3 is often thought to represent self-expression or creative thinking. [7] Seeing 333, then, could be a sign that an intense wave of inspiration is about to come. This could mean you’ll have a new artistic direction, or that you’ll solve a tricky problem at work or in your home life. Whichever it is, a new way of thinking might just visit you sooner than you think.
    • In the meantime, boost your creativity by doing low-stakes things that get your brain working, like doodling, listening to music, or solving puzzles like crosswords or sudokus.

Symbolism of 333

  1. Generally, the number 3 brings a sense of optimism, and tells you to see the glass as half full. Alone, the number 3 means that things are coming together, converging, or being realized. When placed in a series of threes, this special number emphasizes that spiritual convergence, and suggests a powerful unity between your mind, body, and faith.
    • If you’ve been trying to make a positive change in your life, like becoming more active or more creative, 333 suggests that that change will soon bear fruit, so keep at it.
  2. Change numbers indicate just that—an oncoming shift or adjustment. Nine is the highest of the change numbers, which may indicate that an especially meaningful or dramatic change is coming into your life. You might be changing your career, entering a new relationship, or having a deepening of your faith.
    • Also, 9 symbolizes the start of a new cycle, or the end of an old one. If you see 333, you might be in between major life phases.
    • Change numbers, especially 9, are powerful agents of the Law of Attraction. Often, they mean that your manifestations are working, or that you’ll soon have whatever it is that you’re trying to attract.

What to Do When You See 333

PDF download Download Article
  1. When you see the number 333, take a moment to say a prayer of gratitude to God, just as Psalm 3:33 says to. [8] Think of everything in your life that you hold dear—your friends, family, your home—and let God know that you're thankful to him for giving you those things. A small “thank you” reminds us to give God credit for the good stuff!
    • Your prayer can be as simple or as long as you like. Even just, “Thank you God for this sunny day,” is a great prayer of gratitude.
  2. Just as the number 666 reminds us to know our enemy, the Devil, so 333 reminds us to turn toward God and our friends. It also tells us that our destinies are not controlled by the Devil, or by sin. Take a moment to identify any sins or vices you struggle with, then make a plan to remedy those vices and avoid the temptation to sin.
    • For example, if you tend to think bad thoughts about other people, try thinking 5 good things about that person instead, which can help change your attitude toward them.
  3. The number 333 often represents unity. We can see this in the Trinity, as well as in God’s covenant with Abraham. If you see the number 333 in your daily life, take it as a reminder to foster that unity as you go about your day by doing something kind for another person, however small. You might pay for someone’s coffee order, offer some change to a homeless person, or just offer someone a compliment .
    • If you’d like to take the call to unity even further, consider volunteering at a homeless shelter, a food bank, or even an animal shelter to help those around you in a more involved way.

What does the Bible say about angel numbers?

PDF download Download Article
  1. It’s tempting to live your life based on signs and omens, but the Bible warns against relying on things like angel numbers or numerology to give your life direction. In Genesis 3, Adam and Eve are punished for pursuing hidden knowledge, and Deuteronomy 18 warns against divining. [9] Instead, use angel numbers or other apparent “signs” as reminders to turn your mind toward God.
    • That said, it is true that God loves symbolism in numbers, such as the 3 members of the Trinity, the demonic 666 in Revelations, or Jesus spending 40 days in the desert and then later ascending after 40 days. God may use numbers to enhance our understanding of scripture.
