I am not religious just spiritual
Do you believe in Angels or have you experienced any of the signs that you may have been visited by one of these light and love filled beings? At the bottom of this post I will share what I believe (some through direct experiences) are some of the most common signs that we have been visited by an angel.
Throughout history, many cultures around the earth have angelic beings woven within stories passed down from generation to generation. I have been seeing beings of light since I was in my crib as a young child, yet, the first encounter I had with what I believe was an angel was when I was about 4 years old. I had just put on my new roller skates, the kind that buckle over your shoes with two straps. I was skating around my kitchen and had forgotten my mother telling me to stay away from the basement stairs. I was distracted very easily then by all of the other-worldly things I would see as a child and zipped right past her and down the stairs. I remember seeing her throw her arms out to stop me, yet, I was moving too quickly and seemed to pass right through her arms. I will always remember that sensation. I remember seeing the stairs, then the landing and more stairs after that. The next thing I remember is a being of bright and pure white light with a white robe putting their arms out and catching me and floating me down to the basement and softly and gently lowering me to the floor. I opened my eyes and my mother was over me crying and saying “Oh my Gosh are you ok? Are you hurt?” and picking me up and bringing me upstairs. The neighbor and my mom were lifting my arms up and looking for bumps, looking at my head and fussing over me, seemingly shocked I had not suffered any bumps or bruises after falling down the one small and then one big flight of stairs.
I remember trying to explain the man in a white dress who caught me and gently lowered me to the basement floor, yet, I am not sure they really understood what I was saying. Some time later, we were at my Italian grandmother’s home and as we walked in I looked up and saw a picture of Mary, Jesus and Joseph and Jesus had on a white robe. It still weighed on my little heart that I had not been able to make it clear, to my mother, something as important as being caught and carried safely by the man in a white robe! I excitedly pointed up to the picture and said something like “that looks like the man that caught me and brought me downstairs!” I am not sure I had a clear understanding of Jesus at that time as I was about 4. I remember my mother praying with us at bedtime and mentioning God and Jesus, yet, did not realize the picture on my grandmother’s wall was a picture of Jesus. I remember I looked up at my mother’s face and saw a kind of look of awe or surprise as she realized something of a little miracle had indeed happened on that day. She knelt down and hugged me and said something like “Oh, thank God, thank you God!”. I remember telling her I could not see the mans face but that he had a “dress” like that and that he loved me. I remember her telling that story to others from time to time and I always felt as if I was loved by these beautiful bright beings who appeared throughout my lifetime. Over the years I allowed myself to be conditioned to slowly ignore these experiences as they arose because of peoples harsh and judgmental words. I am extremely sensitive and empathic, so it was a way of protecting myself, I thought, from their words of hate that seemed to be derived from fear. Regardless of trying to separate this sacred part of my life, it has continued to flow back in during times of greatest need and eventually I decided that it had sustained me in so many beautiful ways throughout my life and never hurt me and only helped or heal me, that I would own it and honor it as an integral part of who I was and how I experienced this life on Earth. Some people fell away and that is ok! Living my truth has set me free from having to hide and now the people that do love me have to accept all of me(or at least do not share any words of discouragement). The ones that fear or hate only get my well wishes and prayers as I just cannot muster up anything but that. I have so many stories to tell that I want my children to remember after I am gone. I have the numerous stories about seeing loved ones whom have crossed over, still by the sides of the ones left behind. There are the times I had the nerve to approach people and share what I see and how it made them cry happy tears of joy. I have a story of when I was at my grampa’s funeral and how I talked to him as he sat next to me and we watched others crying and how I was surprised when I asked him why they were crying and he told me “because they think I am gone”, with a smile and sparkle in his eye. I have stories of seeing “dark masses” on people that had something unhealthy going on in certain parts of their bodies and telling my mother about what I saw to later find out that person was Ill. I have the story of when I was bathing my two year old I heard a voice behind me say “Nancy” that sounded like my father. I picked up my daughter and wrapped her thinking he came into my house. When I stood and turned I heard and saw things that nobody would have known unless they were with him as he laid dying miles away from me. I have a story about last February when I demanded to see a specialist even though I avoid doctors at all costs, because I had a kind of half awake/half asleep vision that I had something wrong that was life and death, within my abdomen. It turned out I had cancer and was told I had five years to live. It turns out I was healed because after removing parts of me a couple of months later there was no cancer to be found. I have stories about being on the road and learning about the power of manifesting what I needed whether it be working for food (there was no other way. I would go without food if I could not garden or clean or do some sort of work for it) or how I would find items I needed within the hour of stating I needed them. I hope to share all of the experiences and stories I have kept private and only shared with a few choice people, trying to protect myself from any backlash. I hope at least one of my stories will inspire at least one person to own the truth about what they experience, no matter how big or small and realize these experiences with “beings of light”, angels and love filled guides can be a gift, if we allow them to be! I have not had a boring life. I have had many challenges and adventures and times where I lost everything and started over with nothing. I hope you will come back to visit and allow me to share some of the beautiful outcomes of the many challenges I have walked through. I have lost a baby, been through a divorce, been a single parent, been homeless, lived through two illnesses that could have escorted me off of this Earth, gave birth to a baby that I was told to abort because she would not live past two months old (that is another story). I believe we all have miracles in our lives and it only takes recognizing and honoring them and keeping them alive to bring even more blessings in. I hope something I share will give someone the courage to believe in themselves. I hope you all know, each and every one of you: The fact you are living and breathing is a miracle in itself and that you are so loved that the angels are rejoicing as you read this, because you may believe just a little bit more, that they are indeed, real and allow them to bring healing and blessings into your life.
Here are some of the most common ways, according to many peoples beliefs, that angels show they are near. 😊
Butterflies
Moths and Butterflies represent new beginnings. Often they will show up during a time of making big decisions about letting go of something or someone in our lives as we struggle with the fear or uncomfortableness of unknown that sudden loss can bring, whether it be by choice or not. They can come to represent a gentle presence of loved ones that have recently crossed over to show they are with us or come during times that are hectic as a way to encourage us to slow down and take things a bit slower. They may appear when out of season and stay in one place for an unusual amount of time.
Angel wings
Feeling a soft warm sensation, like a hug or as if the softest blanket imaginable has been gently draped around your shoulders. It is often accompanied by a feeling of peace and comfort, like a child would feel wrapped securely in a soft blanket. I had this vision about somebody 2 weeks ago. I was talking to a friend about one of her friends whom had been battling cancer and it had spread to every part of her body except her heart. It was even in her brains and bones! As we were talking I told her I was by no means telling her this to create false hope, yet, I had a vision of an angel wrapping their arms around her friend and I felt she would be breathing easier and have a burden lifted. Two weeks later the friend texted me and told me her friend no longer needed chemo and that somehow the cancer had disappeared! Wow! My cancer was confined to my uterus, so it was easier to believe I was healed, yet, this person had it all throughout their body and it had totally disappeared! I have chills, right now, as I write this! This is truly a miracle!
White feathers
Some believe angels show they are near when a white feather appears. It can happen in a time of need or when you call out to an angel.
Sparkling light
Shimmering or dancing light beams or rainbows, glittery white or soft yellow light seems to appear close by or out of the corner of your eye when there is no direct sunlight and they may be accompanied by a kind of literal buzzing sensation in your body accompanied by a sense of excitement.
Bells
During quiet hours of the evening or early morning and mostly around the home, soft ringing or tinkling of tiny bells that seem to come out of nowhere. It is something you hear, not with your ears so much, yet in your mind, similar to a clairaudience experience.
Floral fragrance
A sudden sensation of smelling beautiful delicate floral fragrances when there is nothing near you that would create this sensation. They smell may be more beautiful than any flower or essence you have ever experienced! Your own personal angel may recreate the essence of your favorite smell to let you know they are near. I believe loved ones whom have crossed over can create this experience also and it tells you that they are near, loving you and offering comfort.
Warmth
A feeling of sudden warmth gently moving through and over you like a wave, even on a cold day, similar to standing near a radiating outdoor heater on a cool day. The warm sensation is usually followed by a deep sense of peace and comfort. An angel is offering a sense of calm when you may be feeling upset or anxious. Acknowledge your thanks to the angel as they offer this out of love.
Choral music
Suddenly it is as if a choir has risen and are singing in powerful voices all around you! This is my favorite and one of the most rare as it may indicate the presence of an archangel! Some believe this is the sound , and according to the bible, of the red and gold seraphim who’s song the shepherds heard when Jesus was born! This may last a moment or two and one may find that no one else near was aware of the beautiful song.
Figure of light
A quick glimpse of a figure of light that appears just as you awake and can be accompanied by a floral fragrance.
Someone calling your name
You hear your name called, perhaps a few times in a row as if a powerful yet gentle choir is near. The melody is so touching you may feel an array of emotions, all at once, from joyful to sad. People have reported this happening as they were about to partake in a mindless or dangerous activity and it made them stop and think and possibly saved their lives.
