Heaven’s Whispers: Recognizing the Signs from Angels and Loved Ones

As a psychic medium, I’m often asked how to recognize when angels or deceased loved ones are near. The truth is, they are always close — it’s just that their vibration is higher than ours, so we must learn to notice their gentle ways of communicating.

They long to comfort us, to remind us that love never dies, and that they are only a thought away. Here are ten of the most common signs they give us to let us know they are there.

1. They place thoughts in our head.

Sometimes a loving thought suddenly drifts into your mind — one that feels peaceful, reassuring, or wise. That’s not your imagination. It’s their way of gently whispering to your soul. These messages often arrive when you’re seeking guidance or missing them the most.

2. They come to us in dreams.

Visitation dreams feel vivid and real. Your loved one may appear radiant, healthy, and filled with love. You often awaken with a sense of peace, knowing it wasn’t just a dream — it was a true reunion.

3. They come through as an animal.

A butterfly lands on your shoulder, a bird sings right outside your window, or a dragonfly hovers close to you. These are not random encounters. They are able to use their energy to go inside an animal to say, “I’m here, and I love you.”

4. They place objects in your path.

Finding feathers, coins, or rocks in unusual places is one of the most common signs. These simple treasures are tangible reminders that you are being watched over and loved.

5. They give off fragrances.

You might smell a familiar scent — a loved one’s perfume, a flower, or even a favorite food — when no one else is around. Scents travel easily through dimensions, and your loved ones love to use them to get your attention.

6. They make songs come on at the perfect time.

That song on the radio that plays just as you were thinking of them isn’t coincidence. It can be their favorite song or yours, or a song with the words you need to hear. Music is universal, and both angels and loved ones use it to lift your heart and remind you that love is eternal.

7. They show us repeating numbers.

Seeing 111, 222, or 444 again and again is your angel’s way of saying, “We’re near.” These sacred sequences are coded messages of comfort, alignment, and encouragement from your unseen helpers.

8. They allow us to feel peaceful for no reason.

Sometimes their presence simply fills the room. You may suddenly feel warm, safe, or deeply loved. That serenity is a sacred hug from the other side — a moment of pure connection between your soul and theirs.

9. They love to play with electricity.

Lights flickering, televisions turning on and off, or devices acting strangely are classic signs. Since energy is what they’re made of, it’s one of the easiest ways for them to make their presence known.

10. They make buzzing noises in our ears.

A soft ringing or humming sound in your ears may occur when your vibration rises to meet theirs. It’s their subtle way of letting you know they’re near and communicating energetically.

When these signs appear, pause for a moment of gratitude. Whisper a quiet “thank you.” Acknowledge their love, because every time you do, you strengthen the bridge between heaven and earth.

Your loved ones and angels want you to know they haven’t left you — they’ve simply moved into a higher frequency where love never fades.

Trust the signs.

Trust your heart.

And remember: every connection you feel is real.

Love is the thread that ties this world to the next — and that thread can never be broken.

Angel blessings to you now and always. xoxo
