Okay, so I kept seeing the number 878 everywhere. Like, everywhere. On license plates, receipts, clocks… it was getting a little freaky. I’m not usually one for “angel numbers,” but it was so persistent that I finally decided to look it up.
First, I googled “878 angel number meaning.” I skimmed through a bunch of articles, trying to find something that resonated. Many talked about financial abundance and manifesting, which, honestly, sounded a bit too good to be true. But several also mentioned listening to my intuition and trusting my inner guidance, which I did feel like I needed to work on.
My Experiment
I started by trying to make a commitment with 878.

- I decided to try to be more mindful throughout my day.
- I am trying to catching myself when I got lost in overthinking or negative thought patterns.
- Whenever I felt that happening, I would take a couple of deep breaths, and try to check in with myself. I ask myself, “What feels right, right now?” It sounds silly, but it helped.
Next, I started a little journal. Not a diary, really, but more of a space to jot down any gut feelings or insights I had. I even wrote down dreams if they felt significant (even if they were just about giant talking squirrels). I figured, worst-case scenario, it would be entertaining to look back on later.
Then I also made a conscious effort to pay attention to opportunities that came my way. I’m normally pretty cautious and tend to overanalyze everything, so I challenged myself to say “yes” to things that felt exciting, even if they were a little outside my comfort zone. For example, a friend invited me to a pottery class. I’m terrible at art, but I went anyway. Turns out, I loved it!
Finally, I did see some unexpected positive shifts. Nothing crazy, like winning the lottery, but I did get a small, unexpected bonus at work. More importantly, I felt… calmer. More centered. Like I was more in tune with myself and what I wanted. Coincidence? Maybe. But even if the 878 thing was just a prompt to pay more attention to myself, it was a worthwhile experiment.
So, I’m not saying 878 is some magic code to unlock the universe. But, for me, it was a good reminder to trust my gut and go with the flow a little more. And hey, who knows, maybe those talking squirrels were trying to tell me something after all.
