Marie Christine gives advice on how to read signs from Spirit, and what to do if you experience unease, and you are not at peace when you receive the sign.
“When you are in alignment with the loving energy of the Universe, you can ask for a sign and trust that you will receive the guidance you need.”
― Gabby Bernstein
“I believe in intuitions and inspirations…I sometimes FEEL that I am right. I do not KNOW that I am.”
― Albert Einstein
“The greatest way to stay connected with what your sign means and the guidance it offers is to tune into how you feel when you receive it. If you receive a sign that makes you feel connected and aligned, and you feel that you’re receiving an intuitive message to move forward, don’t second-guess it. Trust that guidance.”

Are you someone who loves signs from Spirit? Like seeing 11:11 on a clock, feathers appearing out of nowhere, a butterfly or rainbow showing up just when you need some extra encouragement? I do. I love these little nods from Creator, and I also believe these sign’s and interpretations are entirely personal. Essentially whatever you think these signs represent is their actual meaning.

As humans, we have authority over how we interpret things and our attitude towards them. Our internal environment is entirely within our control and our sole responsibility. When looking for external validations and signs for whatever questions we are asking, it’s easy to forget that we are running the show on the interpretation. Therefore, we may think the external event has all the value and answers we seek. This belief is a path to feeling disempowered and a mindset of needing constant external validation, which will cripple a thriving life.
There is a shadow side of looking for signs. This occurs when signs encourage you towards unhelpful habits or behaviors. I’ll give an example from my life; I resolved to cut back on drinking alcohol, and then no more than a minute after that decision, my best friend called to go to happy hour. I thought that maybe this is a sign that I shouldn’t cut back on drinking just yet. However, when I searched my heart, I knew this is not what I should do, and I experienced much internal conflict and anxiety.
The level of internal conflict is important to pay attention to when discerning how to interpret external signs. If you have a lot of unease and are not at peace, it may be best to wait until you can gather more information before making decisions. Just because a sign seems to encourage you to do something doesn’t always mean it’s for your highest good.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s great to get encouragement by a perfectly timed song offering helpful advice or a specific bird showing up when you need confirmation from a passed loved one. Take these little miracles and hold them in your heart. Signs from Spirit help you experience your Creator’s love and support and build trust that you are taken care of, even in the smallest of life’s moments.
It’s important to remember that while the external environment can help confirm and make sense of your internal processes, it’s not the last word. You are because you assign meaning to the experience.
“Intuition goes before you, showing you the way. Emotion follows behind, to let you know when you go astray. Listen to your inner voice. It is the calling of your spiritual GPS system seeking to keep you on track towards your true destiny.”
― Anthon St. Maarten
“When we use signs from the Universe as a way to manipulate or control an outcome, or to feel a sense of certainty when we’re uncomfortable, that is not the process.”
