14. Signs from Spirit- Becoming aware of the signs you are receiving from up above

1
00:00:07,661 --> 00:00:08,771
Hey everyone, what's up?

2
00:00:08,771 --> 00:00:11,441
It's Chelsea Van Buskirk
with the Heart AF podcast.

3
00:00:11,441 --> 00:00:13,271
Hope you guys are doing well today.

4
00:00:13,671 --> 00:00:18,051
I'm filming this on Dia de los
Muertos, so it's a very exciting

5
00:00:18,051 --> 00:00:22,201
holiday, which actually falls
right in line with what I wanted to

6
00:00:22,231 --> 00:00:24,091
talk about on this week's podcast.

7
00:00:24,441 --> 00:00:28,944
So, I'm going to get a little
woo woo with you so if you're

8
00:00:28,964 --> 00:00:30,074
uncomfortable with that, I'm sorry.

9
00:00:30,074 --> 00:00:35,454
This is, who I am and I feel like I
let myself out of that woohoo closet

10
00:00:35,454 --> 00:00:37,254
a little bit with last week's episode.

11
00:00:37,524 --> 00:00:42,234
So this is that disclaimer that,
things are gonna get, on that

12
00:00:42,234 --> 00:00:47,584
spiritual level and it might feel a
little, woo woo to a lot of people.

13
00:00:47,589 --> 00:00:50,249
I feel like that's the word
that a lot of people use is

14
00:00:50,249 --> 00:00:51,809
that it feels, a little witchy.

15
00:00:51,814 --> 00:00:52,439
I don't know.

16
00:00:52,679 --> 00:00:57,639
It's a little funny to me cuz I know that
there is like judgment , I guess it is.

17
00:00:57,639 --> 00:01:03,979
Or like an assumption that, those of
us who are on that woo woo level or

18
00:01:03,984 --> 00:01:11,329
have this openness to spirituality and,
communicating with our higher selves,

19
00:01:11,329 --> 00:01:15,599
communing with, those that have passed
on, with spirit guides, angels, and

20
00:01:15,599 --> 00:01:20,389
this whole mediumship psychic stuff,
tarot readings, Oracle card readings.

21
00:01:20,619 --> 00:01:25,849
I know that some people tend to judge
that as, evil or something anti-Christ

22
00:01:25,849 --> 00:01:31,581
like, and it really isn't, people
that typically are on that awareness of

23
00:01:31,581 --> 00:01:38,111
spirituality and connecting with, higher
energies and things, it's all love based.

24
00:01:38,261 --> 00:01:41,261
It's all, from our creator
and our own divinity.

25
00:01:41,261 --> 00:01:43,421
It's something that every person has.

26
00:01:43,701 --> 00:01:48,046
So it just, it makes me laugh when
I do sometimes hear or feel those

27
00:01:48,046 --> 00:01:52,036
judgements, So I guess a part of me,
like the self-conscious part of me

28
00:01:52,036 --> 00:01:56,116
wants to just acknowledge it because it
makes me feel better just to call out

29
00:01:56,116 --> 00:01:59,446
what I'm afraid of, which is I'm afraid
of being judged or people thinking

30
00:01:59,446 --> 00:02:03,201
that what I'm talking about is evil,
summoning spirits, that kind of thing.

31
00:02:03,201 --> 00:02:04,366
Cuz that's not what it's about.

32
00:02:04,366 --> 00:02:10,466
It's about this universal life force
energy that most of us know as God or

33
00:02:10,466 --> 00:02:15,186
our Creator, it's that higher power, this
one universal higher power, this creator

34
00:02:15,216 --> 00:02:17,106
energy that has created you and me.

35
00:02:17,106 --> 00:02:22,436
It's created everything that we have
in our world and, that that's love.

36
00:02:22,436 --> 00:02:23,126
God is love.

37
00:02:23,396 --> 00:02:28,306
And so there's nothing that
is evil or, malice with that.

38
00:02:28,311 --> 00:02:30,171
I just think it's something
that gets twisted.

39
00:02:30,361 --> 00:02:33,461
I think it's something that's
misunderstood so people just use

40
00:02:33,461 --> 00:02:36,101
their fear and misunderstandings
to make judgements about it.

41
00:02:36,101 --> 00:02:38,221
So I really did not
wanna talk about that.

42
00:02:38,243 --> 00:02:39,113
That kind of was a ramble.

43
00:02:39,163 --> 00:02:39,673
Really.

44
00:02:39,953 --> 00:02:44,609
What I'm trying to say is that I talk
about things that might be considered

45
00:02:44,669 --> 00:02:47,609
woo woo, and it might not be your jam.

46
00:02:47,609 --> 00:02:49,649
It might not be something that
you're remotely interested

47
00:02:49,649 --> 00:02:50,639
in, and that's okay because.

48
00:02:50,904 --> 00:02:53,034
Then I'm not for you,
and that's totally fine.

49
00:02:53,304 --> 00:02:55,824
But I'm for people who have an
openness, who might have a curiosity

50
00:02:55,824 --> 00:03:01,569
or , who are open to maybe learning
new ways of thinking or are open to

51
00:03:01,689 --> 00:03:05,829
broadening their awareness of what's
possible and what, could be out there.

52
00:03:06,109 --> 00:03:08,179
Because it is very magical in my opinion.

53
00:03:08,229 --> 00:03:09,729
It's where miracles are created.

54
00:03:09,729 --> 00:03:14,133
I mean, it always makes me laugh that
people will be so, accepting of

55
00:03:14,133 --> 00:03:17,763
all these miraculous stories from the
Bible, but when it happens in the here

56
00:03:17,763 --> 00:03:20,553
and now, where we have actual miracles
happening in front of our eyes, people

57
00:03:20,553 --> 00:03:24,333
are so quick to deny it or be afraid
of it or think it's something else.

58
00:03:24,363 --> 00:03:28,373
So let's come back to what I wanna talk
about, which is this beautiful holiday

59
00:03:28,378 --> 00:03:30,953
and really Halloween Dia de los muertos.

60
00:03:31,263 --> 00:03:36,223
It's all part of this season that
is steeped really rich in cultural

61
00:03:36,223 --> 00:03:42,463
rituals and, I think it's a Celtic, it's
called samhain is how it's pronounced,

62
00:03:42,468 --> 00:03:44,283
but it was A festival of The Dead.

63
00:03:44,303 --> 00:03:48,233
So very similar to Dia de Los Muertos,
and it's where we picked up Halloween,

64
00:03:48,233 --> 00:03:51,213
all hallows eve from it's, it's all,
connected to these rituals and really

65
00:03:51,213 --> 00:03:57,353
the date marks, this in between, the
fall equinox and the winter solstice.

66
00:03:57,623 --> 00:04:03,243
It's also a time where it's said
to be the veil or the space that

67
00:04:03,823 --> 00:04:08,298
separates earth or our physical
beings with the spiritual realm.

68
00:04:08,298 --> 00:04:10,578
So it's supposed to be a thinning
of the veil where it makes it

69
00:04:10,578 --> 00:04:14,838
easier to connect with loved ones
that are in the spiritual plane or

70
00:04:14,898 --> 00:04:17,778
connecting with our higher selves, or
connecting with our guides and angels.

71
00:04:17,783 --> 00:04:21,768
It's supposed to be a very, Amazing time
for healing, great for meditation, great

72
00:04:21,768 --> 00:04:23,058
for connecting with our loved ones.

73
00:04:23,328 --> 00:04:25,188
And I think that's what's so special.

74
00:04:25,188 --> 00:04:29,583
And what I really wanted to address here
today was, talking about signs that we can

75
00:04:29,588 --> 00:04:34,703
get from our loved ones who have passed,
how we can ask for signs, how, to receive

76
00:04:34,708 --> 00:04:37,803
them and how to know if that's really
our loved one that's sending us a sign.

77
00:04:38,113 --> 00:04:42,373
Because our logical brain, a lot of
times wants to deny what might be a

78
00:04:42,373 --> 00:04:44,573
miraculous message that we're receiving.

79
00:04:45,478 --> 00:04:50,257
I asked in my, women's group recently,
if anybody, sees or Is aware of any

80
00:04:50,257 --> 00:04:52,057
repeating numbers that they see often.

81
00:04:52,247 --> 00:04:57,607
So for me, I see a lot of numbers
in threes , 111, 222, 333, 444.

82
00:04:57,627 --> 00:04:58,737
Like I see 'em all.

83
00:04:58,767 --> 00:05:00,327
And they all have different meanings.

84
00:05:00,517 --> 00:05:04,112
The triple numbers are like my go-to
where I know I'm receiving a message.

85
00:05:04,192 --> 00:05:07,722
I take it as a message from my
spirit guide team, angels, people

86
00:05:07,722 --> 00:05:10,122
that are trying to direct me to
let me know like, Hey, we're here.

87
00:05:10,122 --> 00:05:11,052
We've got you.

88
00:05:11,332 --> 00:05:12,442
There's actually a book.

89
00:05:12,442 --> 00:05:13,662
Actually I have it on my desk right here.

90
00:05:13,982 --> 00:05:16,082
Kyle Gray is a great spiritual teacher.

91
00:05:16,082 --> 00:05:17,522
He's got a lot of great books.

92
00:05:17,682 --> 00:05:20,792
One of my favorites is, How to Raise
Your Vibe, which is funny because

93
00:05:20,792 --> 00:05:24,322
I have a Raise Your Vibe, Playlist
that you can get on my website because

94
00:05:24,322 --> 00:05:26,122
music is one way . To raise your vibe.

95
00:05:26,127 --> 00:05:29,882
But Kyle Gray has a great book on, I
think it's like 101 Ways to Raise

96
00:05:29,882 --> 00:05:32,772
your Vibe or something, but it's
almost like a daily, ritual book.

97
00:05:32,952 --> 00:05:34,122
His other book is Light Warrior.

98
00:05:34,122 --> 00:05:35,112
I really love that book.

99
00:05:35,112 --> 00:05:38,772
It's, for those who feel like they
want to do this kind of work that I'm

100
00:05:38,772 --> 00:05:41,592
doing or feel like they have a message
to help enlighten people or empower

101
00:05:41,592 --> 00:05:44,232
people and basically spread the light.

102
00:05:44,482 --> 00:05:47,477
Anyway, the book I wanted to talk about
that Kyle Gray did, he's an angel guide.

103
00:05:47,482 --> 00:05:50,417
He, actually has an angel
certification, that I'm actually

104
00:05:50,417 --> 00:05:51,917
enrolled in, which is kind of exciting.

105
00:05:52,442 --> 00:05:56,672
He has this book called Angel Numbers
and it's a great text and I think

106
00:05:56,672 --> 00:05:59,852
resource to have when you do see
repeating numbers because he goes in and

107
00:05:59,852 --> 00:06:05,052
lets you know what those, messages are
from our angels when you see numbers.

108
00:06:05,052 --> 00:06:10,097
And he goes, all the numbers, like single
digits to three digit, zero to 999.

109
00:06:10,252 --> 00:06:13,402
He also goes into seeing things on the
clock, so he'll go to a couple different,

110
00:06:13,432 --> 00:06:16,682
numbers that you may see, so not only
repeating numbers, but sequential

111
00:06:16,682 --> 00:06:19,087
numbers like a 1, 2, 3, or 1234.

112
00:06:19,137 --> 00:06:23,037
Or if you see like 1, 2, 21, like
things that mirror each other.

113
00:06:23,092 --> 00:06:30,162
So he just goes into, that philosophy
and how we can use numbers essentially

114
00:06:30,162 --> 00:06:34,872
to communicate or receive messages
from higher entities and especially

115
00:06:34,872 --> 00:06:39,147
our angels cause we do have a, spirit
guide team that works directly with

116
00:06:39,152 --> 00:06:42,997
us on our life path and is always
there, we just have to call on them.

117
00:06:42,997 --> 00:06:43,597
They're always there.

118
00:06:43,597 --> 00:06:45,517
They're not gonna interfere with
our lives, without our permission.

119
00:06:45,517 --> 00:06:47,827
So that's one thing you need to
know about spirit, and I think this

120
00:06:47,827 --> 00:06:52,711
is something I should say, because
I think people do get scared.

121
00:06:52,711 --> 00:06:55,851
Like, Oh, if it's real that, my
loved ones that have passed, like if

122
00:06:55,856 --> 00:06:58,001
they're trying to communicate with me,
are they watching me all the time?

123
00:06:58,001 --> 00:06:58,961
Are they watching me have sex?

124
00:06:58,961 --> 00:07:00,131
Are they watching me on the toilet?

125
00:07:00,131 --> 00:07:01,601
Like that seems intrusive.

126
00:07:01,606 --> 00:07:03,161
And the answer is no,
they're not doing that.

127
00:07:03,161 --> 00:07:03,641
Okay.

128
00:07:03,861 --> 00:07:06,411
Spirit doesn't intrude
in our life that way.

129
00:07:06,411 --> 00:07:10,091
They can't approach us or do
anything without our permission.

130
00:07:10,091 --> 00:07:12,221
They're not watching you doing
things that are private.

131
00:07:12,221 --> 00:07:12,941
It's not like that.

132
00:07:12,941 --> 00:07:14,921
You actually have to ask, okay?

133
00:07:14,921 --> 00:07:16,451
And you have to give permission.

134
00:07:16,671 --> 00:07:18,736
and the same thing goes if
anybody gives you a reading.

135
00:07:18,736 --> 00:07:22,576
If you go to, a psychic medium or
medium that is giving you some kind

136
00:07:22,576 --> 00:07:26,026
of reading, they should always ask
for your permission to connect with

137
00:07:26,026 --> 00:07:28,336
your loved ones and getting that vocal

138
00:07:28,336 --> 00:07:30,916
assurance and you communicating
clearly that yes, you're okay with

139
00:07:30,916 --> 00:07:34,156
them, tapping into your energy
and, receiving messages for you.

140
00:07:34,346 --> 00:07:35,906
So permission's a big deal.

141
00:07:36,036 --> 00:07:39,156
So I was asking my group if
they've ever saw repeating numbers.

142
00:07:39,606 --> 00:07:44,526
My godmother had once told me when
I shared a story of seeing repeating

143
00:07:44,526 --> 00:07:48,876
numbers, that she always called them
God winks, you know, like a winky face.

144
00:07:48,936 --> 00:07:51,586
And I thought that was such a
cute way to describe them, cause

145
00:07:51,606 --> 00:07:52,776
that is exactly what they are.

146
00:07:52,776 --> 00:07:56,781
They're little signs, from spirit,
whether it is from an angel or from

147
00:07:56,786 --> 00:08:01,656
God like it is a sign for you to
know that one, you're not alone.

148
00:08:01,656 --> 00:08:03,486
And two, like we are here for you.

149
00:08:03,486 --> 00:08:06,816
Like you are so held, like there are
people in your corner who are supporting

150
00:08:06,816 --> 00:08:09,006
you through every phase of your life.

151
00:08:09,246 --> 00:08:12,696
If you're going through something
that's painful, like you're not alone.

152
00:08:12,816 --> 00:08:14,766
And that's something I'd
really like to stress.

153
00:08:14,836 --> 00:08:21,401
There is a whole realm of spiritual people
that are there for you that are there,

154
00:08:21,401 --> 00:08:25,181
that you can call in on any time, that
can hold you, that can help heal you.

155
00:08:25,431 --> 00:08:29,386
And it's really just as simple as asking
for that healing, asking for help,

156
00:08:29,416 --> 00:08:33,586
asking for direction, and then being
open to receive those messages, to

157
00:08:33,586 --> 00:08:37,396
receive the signs that they are giving
us and trying to communicate with us.

158
00:08:37,756 --> 00:08:42,941
So back to this, season now
we're in, where historically, is

159
00:08:42,941 --> 00:08:46,581
known as this, thinning of the
veil or a time period where it's

160
00:08:46,581 --> 00:08:50,271
easier to make those connections
through physical and spiritual,

161
00:08:50,561 --> 00:08:52,971
realms so very special time and

162
00:08:53,021 --> 00:08:56,831
I wanted to bring up the
experience that I had.

163
00:08:56,831 --> 00:09:02,601
I definitely received a lot of signs
yesterday and I was just, Really amazed.

164
00:09:02,601 --> 00:09:05,371
And I did get emotional a
couple times yesterday where my

165
00:09:05,371 --> 00:09:06,531
dad came through so strongly.

166
00:09:06,891 --> 00:09:10,281
I was in a yoga class, which I
think is very therapeutic anyway.

167
00:09:10,281 --> 00:09:13,621
Yoga can be a great way to also,
become connected because it's a

168
00:09:13,621 --> 00:09:16,151
place where you're, connecting
your breath and your body.

169
00:09:16,151 --> 00:09:18,551
So it's a soul, mind, body, experience.

170
00:09:18,581 --> 00:09:25,291
And they had a special, Halloween
themed gentle flow class that I was

171
00:09:25,291 --> 00:09:28,111
at and there was gonna be a brunch
afterwards, which was really fun.

172
00:09:28,111 --> 00:09:32,431
And anyway, the instructor had put
together this lovely playlist and

173
00:09:32,431 --> 00:09:35,761
it was different from a normal yoga
class, cause normally the music

174
00:09:35,761 --> 00:09:39,121
that's played in a yoga class has
no lyrics or words, is just soothing

175
00:09:39,121 --> 00:09:41,011
music that you're doing the poses to.

176
00:09:41,011 --> 00:09:42,941
But this one was songs.

177
00:09:42,941 --> 00:09:47,611
And it was song after song that was
like my dad, there were songs my dad

178
00:09:47,611 --> 00:09:50,121
listened to and I just felt him.

179
00:09:50,171 --> 00:09:52,671
And it was, super emotional.

180
00:09:52,671 --> 00:09:55,736
Like there was a time where I was like
trying to hold back sobs a little bit

181
00:09:55,736 --> 00:09:57,356
cuz obviously I was in a public place.

182
00:09:57,396 --> 00:10:00,216
But the same time I also just closed
my eyes and let it come and I was

183
00:10:00,221 --> 00:10:01,746
trying to be quiet and, wipe my face.

184
00:10:01,776 --> 00:10:06,154
Cause I knew it was him, sending
me that message like, I'm here,

185
00:10:06,214 --> 00:10:07,654
I'm here, Chelsea, I'm here.

186
00:10:07,654 --> 00:10:13,704
And it's just nice to get that, and
know that that was in fact him giving

187
00:10:13,704 --> 00:10:18,904
me that message, that comfort, that
validation like, Hey, hey, I'm still here.

188
00:10:19,264 --> 00:10:19,894
I'm still here.

189
00:10:19,924 --> 00:10:21,934
I'm not physically here,
but I'm still here.

190
00:10:21,934 --> 00:10:23,804
And, I'm still a part of your life.

191
00:10:23,804 --> 00:10:25,504
Like we still have this connection.

192
00:10:25,504 --> 00:10:26,704
So it's just really beautiful.

193
00:10:26,704 --> 00:10:29,914
And then the other things that
popped up yesterday was a lady bug

194
00:10:29,914 --> 00:10:32,794
showed up, on my kitchen window on
the inside of my kitchen window.

195
00:10:32,794 --> 00:10:35,434
Like just so crazy that it
just appeared right there.

196
00:10:35,434 --> 00:10:38,044
And lady bugs are the sign
I get from my grandma.

197
00:10:38,404 --> 00:10:41,374
I don't even remember how that became
her sign, but it is when I see a

198
00:10:41,374 --> 00:10:43,654
lady bug, I just know that's her.

199
00:10:43,714 --> 00:10:47,944
And what's interesting is then even
last night, my middle daughter

200
00:10:48,094 --> 00:10:51,244
shrieked cause there was a bug
in her hair and she freaked out.

201
00:10:51,249 --> 00:10:53,614
She thought it was a spider
and it was a lady bug.

202
00:10:53,614 --> 00:10:54,724
And I was like, Oh my gosh.

203
00:10:54,724 --> 00:10:55,174
It's crazy.

204
00:10:55,174 --> 00:10:56,584
And I always see lady bugs with her.

205
00:10:56,584 --> 00:11:00,004
And the thing is we call her
lady like her nickname is lady.

206
00:11:00,184 --> 00:11:03,734
And so we typically get my
daughter, ladybug things too.

207
00:11:03,739 --> 00:11:07,814
And so I just feel like that's kind of a
special bond that her and my grandmother

208
00:11:07,814 --> 00:11:11,304
share, even though my grandmother
never physically got to meet Leighton.

209
00:11:11,574 --> 00:11:14,457
My grandmother died, shortly
after my oldest was born.

210
00:11:14,677 --> 00:11:17,987
So she never got to meet, my middle
daughter Leighton in the physical world.

211
00:11:17,987 --> 00:11:21,707
But the thing is that's cool
if you, don't know much, about

212
00:11:21,767 --> 00:11:23,117
spirit and how things work.

213
00:11:23,117 --> 00:11:27,517
But if you birth a child and your loved
one is passed before meeting the child

214
00:11:27,522 --> 00:11:29,257
physically, they get to meet that soul.

215
00:11:29,257 --> 00:11:31,387
They get to meet that
child in the spirit realm.

216
00:11:31,597 --> 00:11:35,437
So before a soul attaches to the
body, like for good, when you're

217
00:11:35,437 --> 00:11:38,217
born, a soul can go in and out.

218
00:11:38,537 --> 00:11:42,782
Like, let's say I was pregnant, like cuz
this happened in a reading I had where my

219
00:11:42,782 --> 00:11:47,467
son Holton, now he's three, but when I was
pregnant with him, my aunt was telling

220
00:11:47,467 --> 00:11:50,307
me about him, and it's just so crazy.

221
00:11:50,307 --> 00:11:54,527
So the soul can essentially go, back and
forth like in my physical body and still

222
00:11:54,532 --> 00:11:56,897
be connected, with that, spirit realm.

223
00:11:56,897 --> 00:11:59,987
And so my aunt got to tell me,
she was giving me messages about

224
00:11:59,987 --> 00:12:02,567
what he was gonna be like, his
personality and things like that.

225
00:12:02,567 --> 00:12:06,507
And it's fun seeing how all this stuff
come to fruition that she had mentioned

226
00:12:06,507 --> 00:12:09,357
in this one reading I had where she
came through, and was like, I met him.

227
00:12:09,357 --> 00:12:13,267
He's so full of light and all these
things and, big energy, which he

228
00:12:13,267 --> 00:12:17,207
does anyway it's really I feel like
comforting to know that, especially

229
00:12:17,207 --> 00:12:19,852
if you've had someone that you're
close to that you're like, Oh, I

230
00:12:19,852 --> 00:12:23,521
wish they could have met my son or
daughter, they never got the chance.

231
00:12:23,521 --> 00:12:26,444
And, even though physically you didn't
get to physically see that interaction

232
00:12:26,444 --> 00:12:30,709
on this plane, they still got to have a
chance to connect , at the soul level.

233
00:12:30,889 --> 00:12:34,629
And, then they get to, watch over
and be involved, in a different way.

234
00:12:34,629 --> 00:12:38,559
So I think that's something that could
be comforting, if you didn't know that.

235
00:12:40,179 --> 00:12:42,579
So back to these signs.

236
00:12:42,969 --> 00:12:47,469
There is a great book if you're interested
on learning, like more in depth about

237
00:12:47,474 --> 00:12:49,239
signs from loved ones and spirit.

238
00:12:49,519 --> 00:12:55,079
It's by Laura Lynn Jackson, and I don't
have the book physically with me, but

239
00:12:55,079 --> 00:12:59,339
I'll actually post links to these books
in the description of this podcast,

240
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,622
you can find it on youTube as well.

241
00:13:01,632 --> 00:13:05,412
I always post my, podcast videos
to YouTube, so I'll be sharing some

242
00:13:05,412 --> 00:13:08,032
of these books I'm talking about
so you can look them up, and get

243
00:13:08,032 --> 00:13:09,982
them on audiobook or physical form.

244
00:13:09,982 --> 00:13:12,247
But, that book by Laura
Lynn Jackson is amazing.

245
00:13:12,247 --> 00:13:16,527
She is a world renowned medium, and this
book, I thought was very well written

246
00:13:16,527 --> 00:13:22,159
and detailed and really just, I think
gives you so much comfort and a level of

247
00:13:22,159 --> 00:13:25,899
faith that, your loved ones when they
pass on how they're still with you and

248
00:13:25,899 --> 00:13:27,099
how they can still communicate with you.

249
00:13:27,104 --> 00:13:31,179
And it's very beautiful because a lot of
times spirit will use things like numbers,

250
00:13:31,184 --> 00:13:33,129
like animals insects, things like that.

251
00:13:33,379 --> 00:13:34,934
And it's amazing what they can do.

252
00:13:35,154 --> 00:13:37,884
I'm always amazed at sometimes
where I see the sequence numbers.

253
00:13:38,074 --> 00:13:40,754
I was bringing it up before like a lot
of times I see them on license plates

254
00:13:40,754 --> 00:13:42,474
and it always just blows my mind.

255
00:13:42,474 --> 00:13:44,367
Because I drive multiple times a day.

256
00:13:44,367 --> 00:13:46,857
I'm a mom of three, so I'm going
back and forth I've got kids in three

257
00:13:46,857 --> 00:13:49,927
different schools right now, so a
lot of different, routes driving,

258
00:13:50,077 --> 00:13:51,277
going to and from activities.

259
00:13:51,577 --> 00:13:55,017
And it's just so amazing when you, see
these license plates that have the

260
00:13:55,097 --> 00:13:58,527
sequence numbers and you just think
like, how crazy that I see five different

261
00:13:58,577 --> 00:14:00,287
sequence numbers in my one commute.

262
00:14:00,777 --> 00:14:01,917
I mean, it's not a coincidence.

263
00:14:01,917 --> 00:14:04,711
Like it's really hard to say that's
a coincidence when you see different

264
00:14:04,711 --> 00:14:08,191
numbers, cause I'll look over and
I'll be like a 3 33 and then I'll

265
00:14:08,191 --> 00:14:09,991
see an 8 88, you know, or something.

266
00:14:09,991 --> 00:14:10,831
And it's just so crazy.

267
00:14:10,836 --> 00:14:13,596
A lot of times I'll come back to this
Angel number book and look that up to see

268
00:14:13,601 --> 00:14:15,881
what that little message might be for me.

269
00:14:15,881 --> 00:14:20,369
And it's really interesting to see how you
can get some things validated or, things

270
00:14:20,369 --> 00:14:22,529
that might be on your mind that you're
worried about, like you're getting some

271
00:14:22,529 --> 00:14:25,054
kind of encouraging message, from spirit.

272
00:14:25,059 --> 00:14:28,264
And it just lets you know that, hey, you
don't have to handle life on your own.

273
00:14:28,264 --> 00:14:31,204
You actually have a full team
that's here to support you, cheer

274
00:14:31,204 --> 00:14:35,264
you on, and, give you support and
guidance, that you can call upon.

275
00:14:35,584 --> 00:14:36,094
So

276
00:14:36,181 --> 00:14:39,091
I know that could be a question is
how do I ask a loved one for a sign?

277
00:14:39,451 --> 00:14:43,801
I think one of the best ways to do
it is you ask for something specific,

278
00:14:43,801 --> 00:14:45,241
and you can do this in a prayer form.

279
00:14:45,241 --> 00:14:46,711
You can write it down in a journal.

280
00:14:46,911 --> 00:14:49,126
But essentially you're doing
it with your head, right?

281
00:14:49,126 --> 00:14:53,796
Or you can write it out too, but
you just ask, like, Hey dad,

282
00:14:54,006 --> 00:14:55,476
can you please give me a sign?

283
00:14:56,091 --> 00:14:58,381
I would love to see, whatever it is.

284
00:14:58,461 --> 00:15:02,061
So it could be something like,
I wanna see a dragon fly.

285
00:15:02,731 --> 00:15:03,631
Let me use my dad's example.

286
00:15:03,631 --> 00:15:07,196
So let's say I asked my dad, I
want a dragonfly and I will give

287
00:15:07,196 --> 00:15:12,543
him, let's say send me a dragon
fly by, two days from now.

288
00:15:12,548 --> 00:15:15,213
So get, make it specific so you
can know for sure that this is

289
00:15:15,213 --> 00:15:17,373
validated sign so you can say,
I'm just gonna do this right now.

290
00:15:17,643 --> 00:15:23,643
Dad, please send me a dragon
fly by Thursday at 6:00 PM.

291
00:15:25,053 --> 00:15:26,043
So I gave a timeline.

292
00:15:26,043 --> 00:15:28,893
I know that by this week,
Thursday, 6:00 PM I'm asking

293
00:15:28,893 --> 00:15:30,033
my dad to send me a dragon fly.

294
00:15:30,033 --> 00:15:33,573
Just to let me know that you're
with me and that you know

295
00:15:33,573 --> 00:15:34,563
how much I love and miss you.

296
00:15:34,833 --> 00:15:35,073
Okay?

297
00:15:35,523 --> 00:15:38,933
So it's that you just ask for the
sign, give it a, timeline, a deadline.

298
00:15:38,933 --> 00:15:41,873
So that way, you know, and you can be
validated that that in fact was a sign.

299
00:15:42,443 --> 00:15:44,093
The next thing you need to do is be open.

300
00:15:44,153 --> 00:15:46,463
You need to be open to
receiving that sign, okay?

301
00:15:46,583 --> 00:15:50,873
And also know that it might not come in
the form or context, you might think.

302
00:15:50,933 --> 00:15:52,883
So I asked my dad for a dragonfly.

303
00:15:53,163 --> 00:15:55,053
Could it be a dragonfly that flies around?

304
00:15:55,053 --> 00:15:55,533
Could be.

305
00:15:55,803 --> 00:15:59,973
It could be a sticker of a dragonfly
that is on something that I see.

306
00:15:59,973 --> 00:16:02,403
Like it could be a window decal,
that's a dragon fly that I see.

307
00:16:02,403 --> 00:16:05,628
It could be driving and a car
cuts in front of me and there's

308
00:16:05,633 --> 00:16:07,398
a dragonfly on their window.

309
00:16:07,638 --> 00:16:11,108
It could be, a kid getting into my path
and on their backpack is a dragon fly.

310
00:16:11,108 --> 00:16:13,538
Like it could be any number of
things that has a dragon fly in it.

311
00:16:13,538 --> 00:16:17,438
Or I could just be minding my own business
and somebody says the word dragonfly,

312
00:16:17,438 --> 00:16:20,008
or I hear it on the radio , they're
saying something about a dragonfly.

313
00:16:20,248 --> 00:16:21,838
It could be any one of those things.

314
00:16:22,198 --> 00:16:25,588
I think this might be an example
from that one book, but somebody

315
00:16:25,588 --> 00:16:29,008
asked for a, butterfly and
they were eating family dinner.

316
00:16:29,008 --> 00:16:32,068
The, mom was getting the salad
ready and the daughter said, Mom,

317
00:16:32,068 --> 00:16:33,538
there's a butterfly in the salad.

318
00:16:33,868 --> 00:16:36,553
And she looked, and it wasn't a
butterfly, but it was like a piece of

319
00:16:36,553 --> 00:16:39,493
purple cabbage or something that was
shaped and it looked like a butterfly.

320
00:16:39,493 --> 00:16:42,343
So the daughter said butterfly,
and that was her sign, right?

321
00:16:42,563 --> 00:16:44,033
Because she had asked for a butterfly.

322
00:16:44,123 --> 00:16:46,883
So you really have to keep that open mind.

323
00:16:46,943 --> 00:16:50,953
And then the other thing is having faith
in accepting the sign that you receive.

324
00:16:51,163 --> 00:16:51,613
Okay?

325
00:16:51,853 --> 00:16:53,953
Because it's so hard to dismiss.

326
00:16:54,418 --> 00:16:58,718
Or, try to rationalize it
away and explain it away.

327
00:16:59,018 --> 00:17:00,728
But really spirit is miraculous.

328
00:17:00,788 --> 00:17:02,408
They create miracles all the time.

329
00:17:02,738 --> 00:17:06,398
And so it's really having that faith
that, oh my gosh, this is my sign.

330
00:17:06,403 --> 00:17:08,348
This is my loved one speaking to me.

331
00:17:08,408 --> 00:17:11,833
And then saying thank you,
having that gratitude.

332
00:17:12,028 --> 00:17:13,918
It makes spirit so happy.

333
00:17:13,918 --> 00:17:17,318
And so when you acknowledge the sign
you're given and you take the time to

334
00:17:17,318 --> 00:17:21,688
say thank you, and express your gratitude,
then they're gonna give you more signs.

335
00:17:21,688 --> 00:17:25,423
So anytime I'm driving and I see those
signs, I always say thank you, it's

336
00:17:25,683 --> 00:17:30,408
just so magical or sometimes when I'm star
gazing, I love seeing shooting stars.

337
00:17:30,408 --> 00:17:31,578
I think that's so magical.

338
00:17:31,578 --> 00:17:34,068
So sometimes I'll like just ask
for one, like, Please, will you

339
00:17:34,068 --> 00:17:35,593
send me a shooting star, please?

340
00:17:35,643 --> 00:17:37,863
And when it comes, I'm
like, Oh my gosh, thank you.

341
00:17:37,863 --> 00:17:40,683
You know, I always say thank you
because it's just so nice and

342
00:17:40,683 --> 00:17:43,498
again, the more you express that
gratitude, the more you'll receive it.

343
00:17:43,498 --> 00:17:48,683
It strengthens that connection and
encourages that energy exchange, right?

344
00:17:48,743 --> 00:17:52,633
Of, you give and you get, so it's
this, that infinity symbol, right?

345
00:17:52,633 --> 00:17:54,583
Like where you're giving
energy and getting it back.

346
00:17:54,588 --> 00:17:57,013
Like it's just like this
connection and it's beautiful.

347
00:17:57,018 --> 00:18:00,343
And so the more you say thank
you, and you acknowledge, the

348
00:18:00,343 --> 00:18:01,543
more signs you'll receive.

349
00:18:01,763 --> 00:18:05,193
It's kind of a fun game that you
can play, I guess you could say.

350
00:18:05,273 --> 00:18:09,863
Just to experiment with, receiving
signs or just the more you are

351
00:18:10,703 --> 00:18:13,583
open to receiving them and the
more you start to receive them.

352
00:18:13,793 --> 00:18:16,133
And again, saying thank
you goes a long way.

353
00:18:16,393 --> 00:18:19,593
There's actually another book if
you're interested in testing out

354
00:18:20,033 --> 00:18:25,773
energy and spirit and how, the
magic of energy works and how you can

355
00:18:25,778 --> 00:18:29,743
really, manifest things and see the
magic before your eyes, so to speak.

356
00:18:29,748 --> 00:18:35,863
There is a book by Pam Grout called
E Squared, and it's a great book,

357
00:18:35,863 --> 00:18:40,133
especially for people who are just
getting into metaphysics and learning

358
00:18:40,133 --> 00:18:45,353
about energy and learning about, our
way to, co-create with universal life

359
00:18:45,353 --> 00:18:46,553
force energy, that kind of thing.

360
00:18:46,803 --> 00:18:51,063
It's a great book that basically
gives you all these little exercises.

361
00:18:51,118 --> 00:18:52,438
Each chapter is an exercise.

362
00:18:52,758 --> 00:18:55,753
And it gives you a guide of how
to perform the exercise and how

363
00:18:55,753 --> 00:18:58,003
you can prove how energy works.

364
00:18:58,003 --> 00:18:58,873
And it's amazing.

365
00:18:59,093 --> 00:19:02,953
It's so amazing how that law of
attraction works, how, we have

366
00:19:02,953 --> 00:19:06,023
this ability to co-create and,
make things happen in our lives.

367
00:19:06,023 --> 00:19:06,923
Miracles are real.

368
00:19:06,973 --> 00:19:09,963
I actually was listening to, an
audio book earlier this week and

369
00:19:09,963 --> 00:19:11,013
it's something I've heard before.

370
00:19:11,023 --> 00:19:13,603
A president has this quote too,
I can't remember which one, but

371
00:19:13,813 --> 00:19:15,488
in the book, It was Wayne Dyer.

372
00:19:15,508 --> 00:19:18,548
He's one of my favorites, he's amazing.

373
00:19:18,608 --> 00:19:23,843
And he said, you know, Whether you believe
it's possible or impossible, you're right.

374
00:19:24,093 --> 00:19:25,583
I think the quote from, Was it Lincoln?

375
00:19:25,583 --> 00:19:26,153
I don't know.

376
00:19:26,153 --> 00:19:27,743
I'll probably have to Google
it and look at it later.

377
00:19:27,743 --> 00:19:30,238
But, whether you believe you
can or can't, you're right.

378
00:19:30,238 --> 00:19:34,468
Like your belief and that openness
to receive means everything.

379
00:19:34,678 --> 00:19:39,098
So if you are dead set, your
mindset is, No, that's not real.

380
00:19:39,098 --> 00:19:40,868
I can't receive signs, then you're right.

381
00:19:41,148 --> 00:19:46,728
But if you open your mind and open your
awareness and are open to receiving

382
00:19:46,728 --> 00:19:47,748
them, they will come your way.

383
00:19:47,748 --> 00:19:49,458
They come and it's so amazing.

384
00:19:49,458 --> 00:19:50,328
It's so beautiful.

385
00:19:50,328 --> 00:19:55,968
And like I said, it's just I think,
very comforting to know that your loved

386
00:19:55,968 --> 00:19:57,948
one is still with you after they pass.

387
00:19:58,028 --> 00:20:01,478
Grief is one of the most painful
things you'll go through in your life.

388
00:20:01,508 --> 00:20:07,038
It's super painful and, it's
life changing and having a little

389
00:20:07,038 --> 00:20:13,560
bit of comfort and having, some
communication pathways for you to

390
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:18,330
connect with your loved one, I think
is super empowering and comforting.

391
00:20:18,750 --> 00:20:22,850
And, that's actually, what brought
me to the woo woo stuff, was,

392
00:20:22,900 --> 00:20:27,740
processing my grief and having
unfinished business, with my mother.

393
00:20:27,740 --> 00:20:30,110
I expressed that on a earlier episode.

394
00:20:30,110 --> 00:20:35,600
Grief is what led me down this
path of energy healing and learning

395
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,735
about our souls and, soul journeys.

396
00:20:38,740 --> 00:20:42,245
And there's so much more to
elaborate and talk about.

397
00:20:42,245 --> 00:20:44,555
As I continue on this weekly podcast.

398
00:20:44,555 --> 00:20:46,195
So, I'm gonna wrap it up.

399
00:20:46,195 --> 00:20:49,675
Thank you so much for being here
with me today and listening.

400
00:20:50,196 --> 00:20:51,756
I would love to hear feedback.

401
00:20:51,756 --> 00:20:55,966
If you did ask for a sign from
someone and what happened.

402
00:20:55,971 --> 00:20:57,801
Tell me, let me know what
sign you asked for.

403
00:20:57,801 --> 00:20:58,971
How did you receive the sign?

404
00:20:58,971 --> 00:21:01,706
I'd love to hear how
that worked out for you.

405
00:21:01,711 --> 00:21:05,121
It's amazing when it happens
and, love goes out to all of you.

406
00:21:05,431 --> 00:21:08,371
. I hope you guys have a very magical week.

407
00:21:08,551 --> 00:21:11,911
And again, this is the perfect time
to request those signs from your

408
00:21:11,916 --> 00:21:14,281
loved ones while the veil is thin.

409
00:21:14,281 --> 00:21:16,861
Write a note to your loved ones.

410
00:21:16,911 --> 00:21:20,301
It's a great way to just express
your gratitude or anything

411
00:21:20,331 --> 00:21:21,591
you wanna say to a loved one.

412
00:21:21,591 --> 00:21:24,901
This is a great time for
meditation and healing right now.

413
00:21:25,121 --> 00:21:29,201
You can always ask for help, Like you
have a spirit team that is willing

414
00:21:29,201 --> 00:21:30,911
and ready and just standing by.

415
00:21:31,161 --> 00:21:34,041
As easy as, before you go to bed,
like, please help me with whatever.

416
00:21:34,041 --> 00:21:35,151
Like, I need help healing.

417
00:21:35,151 --> 00:21:36,751
Like I am calling on you.

418
00:21:36,756 --> 00:21:39,361
So whether you do that in a prayer
or meditation, say it before you go

419
00:21:39,361 --> 00:21:40,711
to bed, before you close your eyes.

420
00:21:40,991 --> 00:21:41,711
Write it in a journal.

421
00:21:41,766 --> 00:21:47,346
It's a great time to make that connection
with the higher energies right now.

422
00:21:47,406 --> 00:21:52,056
