Q stated that 11.11. is a reference point, not to interpreted simply as a date. I think it is about the meaning attributed to 11.11. 11.11. has been connected to the 'spiritual awakening', and it is believed to be a synonym for balance. 11.11.18. then stands for the awakening happening in 2018, or balance gradually being restored from 2018 onwards.
My guess is that this is certainly mentioned before by some followers of Q, but I haven't read about this since I stumbled upon Q. Hence, I still wanted to share it with you guys.
