10 Clear Signs Your Loved One in Spirit is Trying to Contact You
By Susan Allen, Psychic Medium & Animal Communicator
Grief can make the world feel quiet, but the bond between you and your loved one doesn’t end when they leave the physical world. Spirit has a way of finding you—often in the most unexpected moments. Whether it’s a whisper in a dream, a flicker of light, or a perfectly timed song, these moments are often more than coincidence.
As a professional evidential psychic medium, I’ve witnessed countless heart-touching validations from Spirit. In this post, I’ll share the 10 most common ways your loved one might be trying to contact you, so you can recognize their presence and feel their love.
1. Visiting in Dreams
Dreams are one of the easiest ways for Spirit to connect—your mind is relaxed and open, making it easier for messages to flow. These dreams feel different: they’re vivid, peaceful, and often leave you with a deep sense of comfort.
2. Seeing Repeating Numbers
111, 222, 444—if you’re noticing the same number patterns over and over, Spirit might be using numerology to get your attention. Each number carries its own spiritual meaning, and seeing them repeatedly is often a sign of guidance or reassurance.
3. Feeling Their Energy or Presence
A sudden warmth in the room, a gentle pressure on your shoulder, or that unmistakable feeling someone’s beside you—these subtle sensations can be a loved one’s way of saying, “I’m here.”
4. Hearing a Song at the Perfect Time
Music is deeply tied to memory and emotion. If “your” song comes on just when you’re thinking of them—or when you need comfort most—don’t dismiss it as chance.
5. Smelling a Familiar Scent
The perfume they wore, the smell of their favorite meal, the scent of cigarettes or coffee—these sudden and unexplained fragrances can be a powerful sign from Spirit.
6. Finding Feathers, Coins, or Small Objects
Feathers, dimes, and pennies are common “calling cards” from loved ones. They often appear in unusual places, carrying a message of love and support.
7. Electronics Acting Strangely
Lights flickering, TVs turning on, phones ringing once with no one there—Spirit can manipulate energy to get your attention.
8. Animal Messengers
Butterflies, birds, dragonflies, or even your pet suddenly behaving in an unusual way can be a sign Spirit is close. Animals are naturally sensitive to energy and often act as messengers.
9. Hearing Their Voice or Name
You might hear your name called when no one’s there, or a phrase they used to say. These auditory signs are less common but deeply moving.
10. Synchronicities You Can’t Ignore
You think of them, and someone mentions their name. You see their birthday on a license plate. These “perfectly timed coincidences” are often gentle nudges from Spirit.
How to Receive These Signs More Clearly
- Keep a “Spirit Sign Journal” to track what you experience.
- Stay open and avoid dismissing moments as “just your imagination.”
- Set the intention before bed to connect with them in dreams.
Final Thoughts
Your loved one hasn’t left you—they’ve simply shifted into a different form of existence. The more you notice and honor these signs, the more often they’ll come through.
If you’ve been feeling these nudges but want deeper clarity and connection, I’d be honored to help. In a Personal Soul Speak Session, I bring through evidential messages from your loved ones in Spirit so you can receive the healing, reassurance, and love you deserve.
