It is not only in our dreams that we receive messages from our soul. Every day of our life, at every moment the universe, Spirit or God is speaking to us in dreams, signs, symbols, coincidences and synchronicities. At night when we go to sleep you can ask for a dream to clarify a situation, inspire you or help you make an important decision. We can apply the same technique in our waking time by asking the universe for a sign or symbol to help us make the right decision, calm our mind, or help us with the conditions of our life. They are messages that can pertain to your current life, your future life, or something you really need to know.

Where do the signs come from?

The signs come from cultures, religions, secret societies, your heritage, and the collective unconscious of the human race. I cannot tell you all the history and information here in this article regarding the signs and symbols, it is too much for here and now in my article. I can tell you if you’ve seen the movies, The DaVinci Code or Angels & Demons, that Tom Hanks plays the role of Robert Langdon’s character, who studies signs and is a professor of signs and symbols. Basically, the signs serve as messengers of important information about your current or future life or they can be reflections of what is happening with you in your life and within you. I believe the signs are from all of the above and from God, Spirit, or the Universe – however you feel comfortable calling The ALL That Is. And I’m happy to share with you my experiences and insights gained from the signs in my life.

How do the signals work?

I have invoked signs or symbols for many years, although I don’t remember when or where I first used one. I know that I have always known that even the little things, the coincidences, mean something more than what was first thought. Have you ever been in a rush and when you’re trying to get out of your house or office the phone rings, then you drop your briefcase and papers go flying, then you can’t find your keys and the damn situation just goes on and on and you’re thinking to themselves “Damn, I just want to go, what’s the deal here?” Then just as you take a moment, take a deep breath, your intuition tells you to wait. Just then the call comes in that it was your friend you were running out the door to meet and he told you they will cancel or maybe the elevator got stuck and if you had been in it you would have been stuck too. This is a messenger signal that lets you know wait a minute, your timing is off… just wait.

The signs also reflect our inner world, recognized or not, and reflect our beliefs. Here, where like attracts like, also comes into play. If you are a person who thinks that all rich people are thieves, then you will only see and hear stories and experience rich people who are thieves. Even if you are conscious of thinking that no, not all rich people are thieves, your core belief still radiates that energy or that all rich people are thieves and that is what you attract. You must deal with the belief at the core subconscious level to eradicate it and change it for the better so that you can attract better. If you really want to know what you really feel and believe, look around your life and see who and what is in it and what reflects you.

How do the signs appear in your life?

As mentioned above, it may be that something does not go as you would like, obviously it will be delayed! If you ask the universe for a sign, here are some ways the sign can appear before you:

Dreams – These dream signs can come from Spirit or both, your higher self, pay attention to the most prominent symbol, sign, word, phrase, emotion or song in a dream and see how it unfolds in your waking life to understand its message . .

Conversations: Pay attention to conversations, “slips of the tongue” or overheard conversations (there’s a reason they’re having the conversation so you can hear it). Practice more in really listening and not thinking about what you are doing. it will say when you are in a conversation to listen to messages for you. Be in the moment.

Random Thoughts: Pay attention to seemingly random fleeting thoughts that cross your mind while you’re doing something or being “normal.”

Songs/Music: Have you ever started to sing a song or hum a tune? Personally, I wake up almost every morning with some random song running through my head. What are the words or title? It could be a message for you.

Radio, television and movies: words, scenes and comments can be a means for a message to reach you.

Books, magazines, billboards, printed words: a word or a phrase jumps out at you from the page. Sometimes, for a quick read or an answer to a question, I’ll grab a book and sit with it for a few minutes, quiet my mind, and then ask a question, open the book, and see what the first word or sentence that jumps into it says. the view. . Many times, it’s just what I need to know.

People: People (known and unknown) can get in your way so that they come across you and give you the answer you need. If you think of a particular person, it usually means calling or seeing them because they have a message for you. Each person is destined to see you or cross their path and you with them, otherwise we would not see them. Just think, you could be carrying a message for them too. It’s not always about us!

These are just some of the ways in which the signs are present in our lives or in which we can invoke the signs and look for where their message is coming from.

Asking for a sign:

More recently, I called upon a sign to help me make a very difficult decision of knowing when to “put a beloved pet to sleep.”

My cat Chloe and I have been together since she chose me at the shelter 16 years ago. She was the third addition to my cat family, from two male cats who had already adopted me 5 years earlier. Since our trip together, he has moved in with me 3 times, has watched his two “brother” cats go over the rainbow bridge, and has gracefully loved my dog ​​Pierre since he was introduced to him 7 years ago and has seen me every time. emotional. possible state! A few weeks ago I noticed that she was not up to it. I took her to her annual grooming and when I picked her up that day she seemed to have a stuffy nose. Over the next 10 days she did not eat or drink and lost 6 pounds. Basically, she fed her and gave her water with a syringe every hour. She became severely dehydrated and one of my other cats had been through this before and the outlook for her didn’t look good for her. I called the vet and we discussed her various issues and her quality of life. I made the appointment for Friday.

That night, I prayed and wrote a letter to God, then sat next to her and said to her and to the universe, “Listen, I need a sign from you that if it’s time for you to move on… if you’re ready.” to go, then nothing will change between now and tomorrow. However, if you are not ready to go, I ask your sign to get up and eat and drink on your own.”

Four hours later, I was in the kitchen cooking, and one of the ingredients I was using was tuna. After opening the can, here she is in the kitchen meowing and rubbing against me. I picked her up and noticed that her nose was completely clear and that she was breathing well. I put some tuna in her bowl and she ate it all, then I opened another can of her food and she ate it all, then drank from her water dish. Today, a week later, she is still eating and drinking on her own and wakes up. It was not yet the time. I thanked the Universe and God for the sign. We are taking it one day at a time.

I have asked for signs from friends and loved ones who have passed away to let me know that they hear me speak to them or are nearby. I have asked for signs about jobs to take or not to take or how to deal with situations. I have invoked signs or symbols to know which way to go in driving or in life!

But, you don’t always have to invoke a sign or symbol to receive one, you just need to be aware of them and/or coincidences, premonitions or synchronicities and then figure out what that means to you. Here’s another recent example from my own situation:

This past weekend I went to meet some friends for coffee in a bookstore. I wore a pendant that was a Christmas present from the parents of an old friend. This friend and I had been very good friends for years, but we haven’t spoken in three years. However, I still treasure the memories of our friendship and I go ahead and love the pendant and still wear it. This pendant is made of crystal and is quite a size. And for no apparent reason, he wasn’t pulling on it or playing with it…he was just standing there when it slipped off the chain and fell to the ground breaking into a million little pieces.

My inner knowing immediately kicked in that this was a symbol or sign of something in my life happening. After a day or so of contemplation, I have come to the conclusion that it is symbolic of a breakthrough about to happen in my life and that when things break, particularly glass, an illusion is shattered and I can see my life more clearly. . Also, perhaps in relation to the old friendship the piece represented, it is completely shattered and I had made the decision (months ago) that our friendship was one that was complete. I forgave her and moved on and hope the best for her wherever she is now.

Communications after death:
I have loved and lost many friends and family to death and have my own special symbols and signs that I ask for when I say hello or need help with grief to know they are okay and listening or to let me know they are near . Sometimes a sign from them comes in a dream or they visit me in the dream or during the day. For some it is a particular song, for others a flower, a color or a movie… It is something personal that connected me and that person while they were here.

There are so many ways our life and Spirit speak to us if we open up, listen, and pay attention. We really do have all the help we need and we are not alone.

I highly recommend one of my favorite books on signs and symbols by healer Denise Linn entitled The Secret Language of Signs. I hope this article has helped you and I am happy to answer any questions you may have about signs, dreams, or connecting with spirits. Please feel free to leave me comments as well.

As I always say, remember that we are the only ones who can truly know what things mean to us and I am only offering to help you understand and guide you through the process of discovering your soul’s messages for you.

Sweet dreams.
