Whether you call it Spirit, God, or the Universe, divine energy is in constant communication with you.

The question is — can you recognise what it’s trying to say?

As a clairsentient empath, I’ve learned over time to feel divine guidance. This didn’t happen overnight. It took years of practice, awareness, and removing the internal blocks that dulled my sensitivity.

The whispers were always there.

But mental noise, busy lives, and what I call monkey mind often drown them out.

Spirit speaks to each of us in a language we’re most likely to understand. No two people receive guidance in exactly the same way. The communication is always personal.

🌿 Everyday Signs From Spirit

Two of the most common ways Spirit gets our attention are music and coins.

Songs on the radio often arrive with lyrics that feel uncannily relevant. For me, music is also how my beloved dad — who has passed — lets me know he’s around. He loved music, and his favourite songs still find their way to me at the exact right moment.

Coins on the ground are another gentle sign. They symbolise abundance and reassurance. If you notice one, pick it up — even if it’s only five cents. It’s a small act that affirms the idea that the Universe is working with you.

🏖️ Messages Through Books and Synchronicity

As an avid reader, I’ve often received guidance through books or articles that appear at precisely the right time. I’ve even had a book fall off a shelf — literally — and inside was the solution to a problem I was struggling with.

Once I became familiar with Angel Numbers, I started noticing number sequences everywhere: licence plates, clocks, receipts, phone numbers.

If you’re unfamiliar, here’s a brief guide:

111 – Watch your thoughts; a powerful manifestation gateway is opening

222 – Don’t quit just before the miracle

333 – The Ascended Masters are nearby; call on them

444 – You are supported; help is close

555 – Major life change ahead

666 – A reminder to rebalance and refocus beyond the material

777 – You’re on the right path; keep going

888 – Light at the end of the tunnel

999 – Completion and closure

000 – A cycle has come full circle

There are many combinations with even more specific meanings. For a deeper dive on all the specific angel number combinations I have included them in my book Decoding The Signs of the Universe.

🤍 Signs From Loved Ones Who Have Passed

Both of my parents have passed away. One way my beautiful mum still reaches me is by nudging me to notice the time 11:27 — her birthday was the 27th of November.

White feathers and dragonflies are also common signs that loved ones are nearby, offering reassurance and presence.

🌙 Dreams as Divine Communication

Have you ever had a dream so vivid that it takes a moment to remember where — or who — you are when you wake?

By bypassing our busy waking mind, Spirit often delivers messages through dreams. Because dream symbolism is personal, I don’t use dream dictionaries. A symbol means different things depending on your life experience.

Sometimes keeping a dream journal for a month reveals patterns. The vivid dreams, though, tend to carry the clearest messages.

Dreams speak symbolically. For example, dreaming your teeth are falling out is more likely about communication than dentistry.

Before my mum was diagnosed with bowel cancer, I dreamt she was missing from our home. We were frantic, searching everywhere. The next day she collapsed and was rushed to hospital, where the cancer was discovered. She went on to beat it and live another 25 years — a reminder that warning dreams are not meant to frighten, but to prepare.

🔮 Hunches and Gut Feelings

We all know them — those moments when we think, “I knew I should have listened.”

For me, this is the strongest form of guidance. Information arrives through feeling. If I suddenly feel I should turn right instead of left, I do — no debate.

Every time I’ve followed those nudges, I’ve either avoided difficulty or stepped into an opportunity I wouldn’t have found otherwise.

Guidance comes in many forms: feelings, mental images, inner words. However it arrives, practice following it. It may save you from inconvenience — or something much more serious.

✨ Asking for Help

When I’ve felt completely lost, I’ve asked aloud or silently:

“Help me God. Help me Jesus. Help me Mum, Dad, angels — please help me.”

And help came. Sometimes dramatically, sometimes quietly — like the moment I received a call saying I wasn’t needed at work just after childcare fell through.

You don’t have to carry everything alone. Help is available — but you have to be open to receiving it.
