Guardian Angels are silent protectors, spiritual companions that accompany us through life’s most frustrating…and most fulfilling times, to those who believe in them. Unknown to most, many people believe that these beings are unnoticed or unheard in terms of traditional viewing but that they make themselves known in cryptic and mystical ways, all the times we do not notice.
Guardian angels don’t encourage us without purpose, say believers. They only say it to guide, warn or comfort us. They sometimes let challenges or hard experiences happen and not because they don’t care, but sometimes they feel there is something that we need to learn. While painful, it is said that these moments are part of spiritual growth, to become more aware of our thoughts, attitudes/behaviors, or direction we are going.
You may have felt your guardian angel reaching to you if you’ve ever fathomed there was something more at play – a feeling of unexplained peace when everything around it was chaos, a undeniable feeling of direction, or a bizarre coincidence that spared your life. What many don’t realize is that these moments often have signs—little, symbolic nudge from our celestial guarders.
Sometimes, they can signal their presence even without explaining any fragrances. You might smell roses, vanilla and sweet fragrance, but you’re not near to any source of the fragrance. Thing is most of it feels comforting, like something physical but not of the world is trying to reassure you.
sudden change in temperature is another sign. Warmth or a shift in the air pressure without condition might mean that angelic energy is close. There are those who say they felt a wave, calm like a warm hug surrounding them.
Guardian angels also communicate by dreams. The most open time is when we are asleep and the mind is most open to receiving messages or symbol to guide them. The dreams in this category are usually emotionally vivid and contain highly memorable images.
A first classic sign is finding feathers (and white ones in particular) in unusual places. For many it is a reminder you are being looked after, and that is why it is physical reassurance—a token left behind.
Often, when angel numbers are imagined, number sequences such as 111, 444, or 777 appear as a number sequence on a clock, in receipts, or on license plates. Believers maintain there is a message, available for you in the form of reassurance, encouragement or even guidance, offered by each number.
There are those who say that they feel strongly as if they are being watched … not in an aura of fearful thoughts, but more of comfort, or even serenity. It can be a feeling of being totally and subtly embraced in those times of doubt, in those moments of solitude – when it feels like someone is working for you in quiet.
Additionally, there are occasions when you hear whispered words, soft music or chimes for which there is no apparent source. Many of them appear during prayer or meditation at times and are a soothing presence, giving itself as comforting clarity.
Guardian angels can also reveal themselves by flashing very brief light or sparkles from the corner of your eyes. But these visual cues happen too quickly, too unexpectedly and they often leave us in a great sense of wonder or comfort.
Pets and animals do know how to react to unseen energies. Some believe that, if a pet suddenly is calm, is staring into empty space or displays its fondness towards human without understanding what is really the reason, because they [the pet] can sense an angel is nearby.
Lastly, a sudden wave of peace at the time of an emotional distress can itself feel like more than coincidence. It may be your guardian angel shrouding you in calm whether you are feeling overwhelmed by grief, fear, existential anger or surprise.
It’s not coincidence that guardian angels are not physically seen or that the rest of us aren’t ready to see them yet. Instead, we are encouraged to see and understand them leaving traces of themselves in signs that are small gifts to guide us delicately through life.
Writing these signs down may help because if you are someone who tends to forget these moments or doubt yourself. Find someplace nearby to keep them as a reminder that help, comfort and protection may be closer than you realize.
Even if you take the stance that none of these matters to you — you are a firm believer or you are open to this concept — acknowledging these little key signs can make you feel more aligned, supported and connected with the world around you as you go about your day to day.
