Have you ever wondered how to distinguish the presence of angels in your life? Angels are divine, spiritual beings made of pure light. They exist on a different energetic level to humans, so in order for you to experience their guidance, you must tune into your intuition and increase your present moment awareness.
When you are grounded in clarity and a sense of calm, you will find it easier to notice the many signs, clues, and gentle omens that the angels bring.
Angelic guidance can occur in a myriad of ways. Their messages may manifest to you in the form of dreams, a flash of insight or inspiration during a meditation session or even through channeled messages. If you are someone who is highly attuned to your own psychic abilities, you may receive communication through your senses.
For many though, angel signs are a subtle tug in a certain direction, clues, and hints in the form of signs and symbols that we come across in our day to day lives.
Once you practice connecting to angelic guidance, you may notice that the signs you receive an increase or become more obvious and more direct. It’s a case of tuning in and believing that spiritual guidance is all around. We all have our own challenges in life and decisions to make.
The angels will help to direct your path by revealing signs that mean something to you, winks and nudges that they know will resonate for you on your individual path.
Some of the most common signs from angels are explored below. The angels may be responding to a question you have asked, or appear as validation of the path you have chosen. They may also simply be there to show you that they are close by and willing to assist you whenever you need it.
Feathers
Finding feathers along your path is a very well-known sign of the angels being close by. Feathers make us think of light things and flying, it’s clear to see the connection with angelic beings. If you find white feathers, you can be sure it’s an angel sign, even if there are white birds around.
The important part is feeling the connection between the experience of finding the feather and thinking of the angels. If you want to request a sign from your angels, asking for a feather to appear to you somewhere during your day, is a great way to communicate with them.
Rainbows
Whenever you see a rainbow, be it a physical rainbow in the sky or a picture or painting, it’s a wonderful symbol of peace, love, and positive energy. Rainbows are beautiful signs from the angels to confirm they are with you. If you have been asking for validation or encouragement, know that a rainbow is sent to affirm you are on your path.
If you see a rainbow when there has been no rain, a double rainbow or rainbow orbs around the moon, these are extra special indications from the angels that all is well.
Clouds
The angels love to show their presence in the clouds. Be aware of any rays of sunlight shining in a particularly spectacular way, or perhaps you see a cloud in the shape of an angel or heart. The sky is a wonderful place to observe the signs of angels.
Scents
Every time you notice a soft, beautiful and subtle scent, this is a lovely sign from the angels that they are close to. This is true even if you are walking near a rose bush or jasmine, especially if you have been thinking of the angels.
Our loved ones who have died often let us know of their wellbeing by their scents. Have you ever smelled your grandmother’s perfume? Or a personal scent that reminds you of someone you loved? That is a clear sign of those who have passed on to the other realm, making themselves known to you in spirit.
Babies and Pets
Higher realms of spirit are often much easier for babies, young children and animals to see as they do not have the blocks that adults tend to put in the way of clear angelic experience. If you ever notice a baby seemingly smiling into the distance, or focusing on something that isn’t there, you can consider that it’s an angel. The same is true when you see cats staring just beyond you into thin air.
The act of you noticing them, noticing something outside your field of vision, is a sign from the angels.
Music
Pay attention to any songs that suddenly come into your head. Perhaps you wake up with a song playing through your mind, or you keep noticing the same song on the radio. These synchronistic moments are the angels bringing you messages through music to guide you.
Some people report hearing beautiful angelic voices when they meditate. Whatever your experience, be open to the messages through the songs and give thanks to the angels for their presence in your life.
Coins
If you find coins or money in general, pay attention to what it may symbolize for you. Did you express your financial concerns to the angels, or is there a date on the coin that means something to you? When you find currency, the angels are communicating that you are valued and that abundance is available to you. It’s a wonderful symbol of luck and encouragement.
Sparkles of light
Angels communicate in light because they themselves are light, so any time you notice an unusual flash of light or color, perhaps an orb of light or a beautiful shaft of sunlight, a star that really draws your eyes or any kind of shimmering reflection, know that the angels are close by.
Temperature change
Many people report a change in temperature when they feel the presence of angels. You might experience wonderful warmth inside, a whole-body glowing. Alternatively, you may feel tingles and shivers, a sense of cool all over you. Whatever your experience, know it is a validation of connecting light, love, and energy from your angel guides.
Feelings
Sometimes, you can just feel that you are not alone in a room. Every time you sense the presence of something with you, it’s an angel. You might experience a slight tingling or brush on the back of your head or neck. Perhaps you feel a surge of love wash over you. You are loved and cared for, unconditionally by the angels.
Signs, Words, and Advertisements
The angels like to nudge us in the direction of their guidance using words, signs and even advertisements. If you have been pondering a decision or wishing for some kind of assurance of your path, you may find yourself noticing words in signs or advertisements as you drive past, that speak to that decision. If this happens, take the hint.
Voices
Have you ever had a thought come into your mind that seems like a message? Or hear a whispered voice that seems to come from nowhere? That could be your angels guiding you. Hearing subtle voices does not mean you are going crazy, you may just be tuning into the way the angels are trying to communicate with you.
This can also be the case if you overhear someone else talking, and they appear to be discussing the exact topic you have questions about. You may just hear one word, but it is of significance to you. The angels know and are trying to get through to you in the ways that they know you will hear.
Numbers
Magical number sequences are a sure sign from the angelic realm that you are on track with your life and purpose. Ever notices repeated numbers on clocks, computers or car dashboards? For example 11.11, 12.12 or 11111 or 22222 or 4444? Or any number of synchronistic number sequences?
These are a loving symbol of alignment and positive energy. Know that your angels are with you and guiding you with love.
Whenever you experience a sign or symbol from the angels, take time to express your gratitude and appreciation for their love. Breathe deeply and thank them for their gentle guidance. As you become more aware and in sync with angelic guidance, you can practice asking for specific direction or encouragement with personal issues in your life.
The most important thing is to make sure you ask from a place of connectedness and not from a frantic needy mindset. That way you can be sure to interpret the right answer that will be perfect for you, wherever you are on your life journey.
