Sometimes Angels will send you little signs that you are watched over and guided, even during your quietest moments.
Smell
Ever smell something super distinct that has no possible explanation? Maybe it’s the smell of a flower that isn’t anywhere nearby, a certain perfume, or something as simple as freshly baked cookies.
These seemingly random smells tend to pop up out of nowhere and fade away quickly. Some believe this is how angels give you a sensory hug to comfort you during a moment of stress or remind you of a joyful memory.
Feather
Finding a small feather on the ground where no birds are around can be very startling. You may find one randomly inside your home with no pillows or pets around to shed it, or even on your car seat when you’re parked in the middle of town.
Many believe it’s a sort of “calling card” left behind for you to find. A physical reminder that you are being looked after and guided, even during tough times when you can’t see the path.
Temperature
Some describe it as feeling sudden warmth or a cool, tingling sensation that travels down your spine, although nobody else in the room is affected. Angels are said to create this sensation by entering your personal space.
It’s like you can feel their “weight” in the room with you. It often occurs when you’re going through a moment of intense prayer, meditation, or needing strength for a big decision.
Ear
Unexplained ringing in your ears that isn’t caused by medical reasons is sometimes attributed to “downloading” information. The theory is that angels vibrate at a much higher frequency than we do as humans, so when they’re hovering near you, your body reacts to their energetic frequency.
Many believe that this random ringing in your ears is your cue to quiet your mind and open your ears to your intuition. An answer to a question you’ve been carrying or a new thought may be downloading into your mind.
Sequence
You keep seeing the same number sequence everywhere: clocks, car odometers, license plates, receipts, etc. At first, you think nothing of it, but then you see 11: 11 or 444 or 222 one too many times and think maybe somebody’s trying to send you a message.
Believers call these “angel numbers.” The theory is that angels can’t speak to us telepathically, so they use numbers (a universal language) to get our attention and direct us to take note of what we are thinking right now.
Stranger
Believe it or not, sometimes angels reach out to us through other people. You might be having a problem and a stranger might say the exact thing you needed to hear that day, or someone randomly might stop to help you when you’re at your limit.
You’ll notice these people seem to come into your life at the exact moment you need them and leave shortly after.
Songs
Ever walk into a store or turn on the radio and hear a song with extremely deep meaning to you at that very moment? Maybe the lyrics answer a question you just blurted out or provide the exact comfort you were looking for.
When this happens more than once with the same song or message, some believe that angels can use music to try and “talk” to your heart
Light
You may see small flashes of light or “shimmers” out of the corner of your eye. When you try to look towards it, the light disappears.
They typically will not be as bright as a flashlight pointed in your eyes, more of a faint glow or twinkling of color. Angels are thought to be made of light and powerful energy vibrations.
These little visual disturbances are considered to be peeks of angels moving about in our physical world.
Animals
Animals sense these things before we do. You may notice that a butterfly lands on you and follows you around for longer than usual, or a bird may come to land pretty close to you when you’re feeling lonely.
If you own pets, they may even suddenly start staring at nothing in front of them or wagging their tails at “nothing” in the air. When this happens, your furry friend may be trying to alert you that a comforting presence is near, even if you can’t see it.
Direct “knowing”
This is when you suddenly feel overwhelming peace, or a strong “gut feeling”. You could be worrying about something, and all of a sudden, you feel like “everything will be okay”.
Even though nothing may have physically changed in your situation, your angels are speaking directly to your soul. Giving you what you need to be strong enough or comforted enough to carry on.
