Have you ever wondered if there’s anyone listening? To your prayers, your meditations, your calls for help or inspiration…
Did you know that you can ask for a sign?
This is not a technique to be misused, but rather something to be done with serious intent – an action that calls for a response, an action that calls for something tangible that you will recognise when it appears in your world.
Here are some things that you can try:
Ask for your Guide to appear as an animal or some other living thing, some sort of motif that you will associate with them and with their presence.
Ask to see a specific image or thing, as acknowledgement of a question, or in answer to it. Perhaps you are driving and you ask to see a red Kombi van if the answer is yes. Or you ask to see a particular type of bird or something else you’ll recognise as that sign…
Ask, and then expect an answer. Perhaps the answer will be a message on a billboard, a line from a book, a voice on the radio, the words in a song. The message will stand out for you somehow, and have a special meaning just for you.
Angels are often associated with white feathers. Guides are often associated with other coloured or patterned feathers. I have found feathers during some of the most difficult times in my life, and have felt reassured by them showing up for me.
When I sense my Great Aunt’s presence I smell roses. When my Grandmother is near, I smell or even see gardenias. A friend smells tobacco smoke when her father is with her. Sometimes loved ones will create a breeze where there was none, stop or start a clock, or move something. Whatever they do will make sense to you, based on your relationship with them.
Sometimes God creates magnificent signs, for no reason other than to help us remember the love and miracles in our world…
And sometimes it’s well-meaning friends who help us know what’s in store for us on the road in life…
When the road ahead is uncertain, when you need to know you’re supported, when you are looking for answers – it’s okay to ask for a sign. But do it once, and trust what you get!
♥ And here’s MY sign for you today (Okay, maybe there’s 3…):
So grateful for this post. I’ve been asking for signs for the past few months about a matter very close to my heart…and I’ve gotten one confirmation after the other, yet somehow I always manage to wonder if it’s all a coincidence and/or I’m losing my mind. Thank you for the reminder to trust.
Yes, Nathalie, trust! Sending much love your way. Bless xx
Oh man!! You just made me smile :)) Mwah xx
This is most interesting, I must try it. I like the feathers thing, I’ve never thought of finding feathers as meaning something, but when I see them they do attract my attention. I really like the idea of asking for a sign in the form of an animal, because such sightings lift the spirits even if you haven’t asked for them. Incidentally, I don’t mention this enough, but you write beautifully. I would like to read your fairy book when it’s out.
Hi Nicole,
Thanks for sharing this, it’s really great, love the rabbit in the clouds.
Thanks Helen! I love that bunny too. So cute 😀 xx
Interesting and beautifully put-together post – thank you!
♥ You’re welcome xx

I usually ask for blue feathers, today I asked for a strawberry…
Thank you….you delivered right on time!
Take Care

Blue feathers? I totally heart that! ♥ xx
When I see bluebirds, I am reminded of God’s love for me. I think of them as a special sign to me to trust Him, to be happy, to remember that everything will be okay.
Bluebirds bring a particular mix of serenity and joy to me.
This is a lovely post.
That made my heart smile, reading about you and God and bluebirds. Rainbow Bee-Eaters do that for me. 🙂 Bless xx
Such a wonderful post and message.
And it’s good to see that the Universe has a sense of humor. And is intent on protecting us from zombies 😉
How cool is that Zombie sign??? We all need that kind of a heads up LOL
Especially with zombies 😉
I agree about the humor. I asked for a sign of an iris, years ago, as confirmation about a decision. I looked for flowers all day. That evening, the TV played in the background as I did something else. At one moment, I felt compelled to look up at the screen. There, filling the whole picture was an iris — of a blue eye! Not what I expected, but then I didn’t define my terms…..
That’s it, isn’t it? Defining our terms… I love the unexpectedness of your confirmation. And the delightful way you connected with that message. I’m sure the Universe has a great sense of humour. 😀 Bless xx
You are a sign! xoxo
Thanks for another great post, and what a fun one. Signs are so delightful! I have a collection of white feathers that I would find, reassuring me when I was planning my move halfway across the country. And I am blessed with pennies and dimes in the most interesting of places – those in spirit do have a sense of humor 🙂
Pennies and dimes? Now that’s cool! I totally agree with the humour thing. Thank goodness for that. A grumpy Universe with mean spirits would be no fun at all 😉
I think finding you recommended by Eric was my sign – what a great post – especially “better things are coming” – I needed that–and if they come I will let you know
Of course better things will come – you’ve been given a sign! {{{HUGS}}} Much love to you xx
thank you – I will keep you updated–thanks for the hugs
thank you for speaking of this with lightheartedness and with a “of course you ask for a sign and receive it” heart. Reading this actually made me realize I had received a sign this week for something that has been perplexing me. Sometimes I don’t notice right away!!
Great to hear you got your sign, Joss! We can be a bit slow on the uptake sometimes, can’t we? Much love to you xx
I love this. Thank you.
{{{HUGS}}} You’re welcome! xx
Loved this. I saw a white feather on my walk today. When I need confirmation the other day and cried to the heavens on my walk, a second later a song blasted out from the yard of a house (always no music on my walk, always) and it was the song I needed to hear. Exactly explained where I was at. 🙂 Hugs, Sam
Love the song ‘sign’, Sam! That sense of encouragement and confirmation can mean so much. Hugs right back to you! xoxo
When I was 13 my cockatiel’s cage was knocked down and she escaped. I was devastated. I asked for a sign that she was ok. I specifically asked to see her feathers or her toys or the like. I found her feathers in the backyard some time after, and also part of her bell. I never really believed it at the time (convinced myself it was wishful thinking), but I know now that it was really her saying “I’m ok”. =) <3
I hope you still trust in that ability to ask for a sign, Jo. ♥ Bless xx
i always ask for a sign and always get it. It’s a wonderful feeling.
Very beautiful post!. Much love <3
I agree that it’s a great feeling! Love right back to you xoxo
