Do you keep seeing angel number 555 everywhere, at the most synchronistic of times? Pay attention! These 5s can be a sign pointing to growth and change in an aspect of your life, ranging from your relationships to your life purpose, finances, or physical health.
Have you ever looked at your phone at exactly 5:55 and wondered if it meant anything? Then, the next thing you knew, you glanced at your inbox and found 555 messages waiting for you? (Because, hey, you’re not the biggest fan of clearing out your inbox.) Rest assured it’s not all in your head. A repeating number sequence, such as 55, 555, or 5555 — otherwise known as an angel number — does mean something.
Since the origination of numerology in ancient times, numbers have been believed to hold spiritual and practical significance. Yet it wasn’t until very recently — circa 2000 — that author Doreen Virtue coined the term “angel numbers” in her book.
Our understanding of these repeating numbers has since exploded, with people all over the globe tuning into the phenomenon — something that Joy Woodward, an expert numerologist, attributes to the world we’re living in now. “Angel numbers are a more everyday occurrence because everything is digital” and numbers are at our noses like never before, she tells DailyOM.
All angel numbers, including 000, 111, 222, 333, 444, 555, 666, 777, 888, and 999, can be seen as signs from the Universe — or from a guardian angel, spirit guide, or departed loved one.
“Angel numbers can provide guidance and insight into one’s life path,” says Matthias Dettmann, a psychologist, numerologist, tarot reader, and founder of Valaros. “By paying attention to these numbers and their meanings, you can gain a better understanding of your spiritual journey and the steps you need to take to achieve your goals.”
The number 5 rules adventure, freedom, and change. But there’s a caveat: It also rules chaos and drama.
In other words, angel numbers offer comfort and reassurance, “reminding us that we are not alone” in the Universe, Dettmann says.
The Meaning of Angel Number 555
Angel number 555 points to change and transformation, Dettmann explains. “It represents the awakening of our true selves and the realization of our life’s purpose. This number signifies a time of great opportunity and growth, urging us to trust in the journey ahead.”
Being a numerologist, Woodward looks to the meaning of the number 5 to interpret 555. “The 5, at its very basic level, rules adventure, freedom, and change,” she says. But there’s a caveat: “It also rules chaos and drama. Although it can go either way, I would say the 5 — and 555, for that matter — is encouraging you to step away from anything that no longer serves you.”
Because angel numbers are open to interpretation, some experts, such as Woodward, also like to examine the sum of the numbers — in this case, 5 + 5 + 5. Although that equals 15, in numerology, you add up each digit until you have a single number. So when you add 1 + 5, you get 6, which signifies big change in the area of family, romance, or education, Woodward says.
“In order to determine the precise meaning for you, you have to look at what’s going on in your life at the current moment, and how this might make sense for you,” she adds.
Another thing to note: The more 5’s in the sequence — for example, 555 versus 55, or 5555 versus 555 — the more amplified the signal.

Why Angel Number 555 Is Exciting for Your Love Life
In terms of love and relationships, the meaning of 555 depends on whether you’re in a relationship or not, Woodward says. “If you’re looking for love, 555 suggests going out, because there’s a person for you available now.”
But take stock of yourself and your relationship history before you dive into dating, Dettmann suggests. “If you’re single, 555 can be a message to let go of old patterns and embrace new opportunities for love.”
On the other hand, “if you’re currently in a relationship, 555 can be a message to trust in the journey ahead and embrace the changes happening,” he notes.
If you’re in a relationship that feels a little shaky, 555 could serve as a sign that you’re experiencing more drama or chaos than necessary — and maybe it’s time to rethink things, Woodward says.
How Angel Number 555 Signifies Career and Money Growth
Angel number 555 is great news for your career path, according to Dettman. Be prepared for a time of transformation and growth in your professional life. Embrace new opportunities and trust in the path that lies ahead.
This special series of numbers could also signify a boon for your finances. If you’re trying to manifest money, 555 could mean more of it is headed your way. On the flip side, if you’re having financial problems, 555 is a nod to look forward, because there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, Woodward says.
The 5 is also the number of the gambler and the risk taker. “If I were trying to decide if it was the time to make an investment or something, 555 would be an indication to roll the dice. With the 5, you can expect the unexpected,” she says.
What Angel Number 555 Means for Your Twin Flame
According to Dettman, seeing 555 can be a message to have faith in the journey of your twin flame — which is a relationship, either romantic or platonic, meant to accelerate your spiritual growth — and embrace the changes that are happening thanks to this person’s presence in your life.
Because the number 5 also symbolizes chaos and drama, it can speak to the intensity of a twin flame relationship, especially if you’re involved with this person romantically.
“The 5 is also the number of kink. It doesn’t like to be bored. So it could be a nudge that keeping things exciting — and that extends to the bedroom — is a good thing for you right now,” Woodward says.
How to Use Angel Number 555 to Manifest Your Life Purpose
Seeing 555 may show you’re on the right track toward realizing your life’s purpose. “This number can be a sign to trust in the Universe and embrace the changes that are happening, as they are leading you toward your highest good,” Dettmann says.
In terms of manifesting whatever it is you desire, 555 is a sign to clear out the clutter.
“One of the biggest things I see with clients when they’re trying to manifest is that there is absolutely no room in their life,” Woodward says. “Recently, I did a reading for a couple trying to get pregnant. I asked them, ‘Where is this baby going to go?’ And they’re like, ‘Well, in the junk room, or in this hall room or whatever.’ I told them this baby needs to know that it’s welcome, and you need to clean up your space. Well, they took my advice, and I recently received an email saying they’re pregnant!”
Why Angel Number 555 Is a Path to Better Physical and Mental Health
Trying to manifest feeling your best? Take it from Woodward: “If you’re really focused on your physical or mental well-being and keep seeing 555, that would suggest there’s a change you need to make. There’s likely an unhealthy habit or pattern in your life. Think about what you can do to positively change or shift [this pattern].”
The Bottom Line
Whether you’re looking for a sign related to your love life, career, twin flame, life purpose, or overall well-being, seeing 555 holds both gentle support and a call to action that can take your life to the next level.
