Look for the signs
Tuesday, April 12, 2011 at 01:43PM How many times do you ask for a sign and then when you lease expect it... BAM there it is... slapping you in the face! It's actually laughable how many times it happens to me, and also when I least expect it but when I KNOW I need it.
Thats when I look up (don't ask me why I look up as I know the spirit world isn't exactly 'up') and say Thank You! Sometimes the signs are not what we expect but they are there all the same.
I bet there are so many of you sitting there reading this saying, well yes but how do I know it's a sign... and that is easy. we get signs every day that our loved ones are around us or that we are being shown things for a reason.
The signs can be anything, from looking at the time and it being 11:11 or someone sends you a letter and their return address is a number that resonates with you. It could be a bird flying past your window or a song on the radio when you least expect it. There are so many signs around us all.
But then there are times when we sit and think... no that wasn't a sign, but you want to believe. Well all I am going to say is believe that it was a sign and know that you are being loved and guided and helped along in life every step of the way. You are not alone, there is always someone looking out for you on the other side.
So when the signs come allow them to come, sometimes you want to force things along and make things happen but the sign will always be there when it's the right time!
Stay looking for them, and believe... who knows what may come your way!
With love

Hi Lisa,
Makes sense when you say it like that, just need to accept that it is a sign and not just the coincidence I generally put it down to.

What a sign!
I have been seeing 11.11 signs since January ( when a big event happened ) and hearing the same song on the radio that means so much. I was hoping they were signs and then being directed to your blog tonight........
Thank you Lisa. I hope and pray these signs are there to help us go forward with hope!

I have been reading and studying life after death since I was in my 20s. I've read so many books on life after death. I've been to tons of mediumship seminars. I always found the subject absolutely fascinating and comforting.
I've even sat with people, who were in engulfed in grief and was able to tell them things about their loved ones. I don't know why I could do that, but I believe it was because we can all connect on a spiritual level, when the motivation is greater than ourselves. Now I don't know if I believe in any of it.
I've never been read at any seminar. I've been to many. Each medium was extremely well known. But, I never gave up hope that one day, I too would be read. I was always happy for the other that were read. But, after years and years of this, I really wanted to feel that connection with the person I was missing too.
So I contacted a medium that was highly recommended. We had a phone conversation. Most of what she said, regarding the person I wanted to contact, didn't fit. She said she felt horrible because she normally connects with people well. She seemed very distressed over it. I believed her. She was so sweet! She asked if I would mind if she meditated on it and called me in a few days. She seemed genuinely concerned. She said it meant a lot to her, that she was able to connect. She said she is always able to come up with names and concrete information. I felt sure that she was upset about it. I was upset about it too. Then she never called. Each day I waited. Nothing. I couldn't believe it. It was a blow to me, because she seemed so genuine. She was so highly recommended. :( I told her the seminars I went to....she even said I was meant to be read at the last one I attended. She said she was there too and felt it. But, still didn't call back. I guess I am just overall hurt.
Now, I feel like a little kid that just found out there is no Santa Claus. Silly, right?
I feel quite confused. Years of reading, studying and attending seminars, this is the outcome? I would think my loved one would try to talk to me..........is it just me? Sorry to write this all here Lisa.....I just feel so disallusioned. Every time I've met you, you were so warm. I just needed to vent this out.
Thanks beautiful. I will :) It's so nice to know we are not alone.
BONJOUR Lisa,
You're so right! The more we pay attention, the more signs we'll notice. They are all around us. I see them more and more; and now I drive my husband crazy pointing signs for him too. Fortunately, he is quite open to all this.
LOVE & GRATITUDE,
I often get signs & validations between myself and my Dad.
Early last week I found myself thinking about a friend of my dad's (Wade) who was killed in an accident a few years ago. A couple of days later my dad posted a tribute on his facebook page to Wade. It was the 8th anniversary of Wade's death. (I didn't realise this) My dad and I live at opposite ends of the country. I posted a comment to my dad that for some reason I had been thinking about Wade earlier that week. Later the same day I realised that what prompted me to think of him was a car that I saw at the shops with the registration WADE.
Wade was hit by a drunk driver while he was working and was on life support for a week before it was turned off and he passed away. At the time my dad was devistated, I remember him calling me and crying uncontrollably when he told me what had happened.
This sign validated to me that through me Wade was acknowlegding my Dad. We both found comfort in this. You know if it's a sign from the other side because you can FEEL it.
Hi Lisa,
You, were the One who made me aware that the spirits really are trying to show us signs...
Now, because I am paying attention, I know in myheart that these experiences that are truly signs.
What has amazed me most, is, when out of know where I will have a random thought, it could be about a specific feather,,, just a fleeting thought, and then usually within a short time or by the close of the day, I am in possession of that feather... Twice, I got featheres enclosed in a note in the mail, right after having thoughts about a particular feather.. I must say in those incidents it did get a rise out of me..
I feel very blessed and feel I owe it all to you that you have encouraged us to just BELIEVE and it is amazing and touching and Yes, I do too, look up, into the skys and thank them... I hope the signs will always be there to be open to.
I have even been blessed to ask for signs and connect with them too, it is a beautiful feeling.
Luv you much............
Sometimes in the past I haven't been so smart on picking up on signs. I think I have come alittle more aware. I see feathers on the ground around the place when I walking, I think that's a signs. Just like to say I have finished reading your book, it's fantastic, well done. I'm not, really a reader of books but have become one now especially with your books. These books I would like to leave as heirlooms to my sons and also when they might need them. For selfish reasons- please don't work to hard, pace yourself so people well in the future can experience your character and wisdom. I'm glad I'm alive in the same lifetime as youself and my sons. Cheers Lisa.
This is so true LIsa Tomorrow it will be two years since I lost my brother . All week I am finding feathers everywhere I go. know its a sign from him You read for us in Adelaide in 2009 which really helped us.My brother Peter was one of the fisherman that drowned at Port Hughes
Hi Lisa, I am reading Survival of the Soul at the moment, such a great book, I am really enjoying it and learning a lot. Do you still get signs from loved ones who have passed even though your relationship on earth was rocky.
Thanks Lisa, today I had 2 christmas whiskers fly straight into me, one went right in my hand like it was handed to me and I carried it through the day, then I must have dropped it and another appeard later in the and I thought wow that is a sign 2 in one day and then I read this, another sign.
Thanks for sharing.
Good vibes to you, love your work :)
Hello to Everybody,
Please would you be kind to excuse my speaking English,I am French,and that was a long time I didn`t speak English. So I would like to say to JOANNE,that I beleive I know how she feel,when she said she is like a kid when he knows that PAPA NOEL isnt' real...Manytimes in my life,that sort of thing happened to me too,but may be ,you know JOANNE,it's because the SPIRITS of your familiars didn't want to give you any message,one because you could be able to enter in contact by yourown,even if you say not,try,but may be the second option is that they dont wont to be bothered,that happened with my father and grandad..I remember I tried a few times like that,without expecting something and I remember I feel a little bit scared because I feel anger,you know,itseems silly but I really feel it..so I understood that they didnt want to speak to me,that was finished,and may be because they are like that,not all the spirits are good or kind,I dont want either to say that some are bad,but they just don't want to be bothered.O r may be simply they have passed to another state..and they are not here,up or not... anymore,they have gone...I know it's just sugestionsfrom my point of view,I dont want to enter in your deal with this person you've been expeted may be too much....sometimes we hope from others,because we need this hope ,like we need a reply,like we need Love,like we need t to be reconfort,and we expect too much,and we feel so desapointed,so hurt,but may be this person would'nt be able to say anything to you ,because nobody is perfect....even the BIGGEST,the BETTER AND GREATER MEDUIM... we all are different ,we react different,we live different and that is what we do have to acept,the world of the spirits is tremendous and so unbeleivable that anyone can interprete it to his own way,there are coincidence,may be not,they are signs may be not,may be each one of us we do want to see something here and say ..it's a sign...and may be it's not,may be we needed at this time to beleive in something because we neded that but in fact ma be its just to be sure that we are not alone,and because we are insecure...
Anyway,should be nice to talk with you JOANNE,
LISA may be one day I would be able to ask you a reading, I'd really like to..I ts a shame that for the moment your books are not translated...You are a Good person,nice to be able to let us giving replies on your blog.Thanks LISA.
Oh, how timely for me!
My niece is getting married Saturday, April 16.
That is my father's birthday; he passed in 1977.
I had a sort of dream where he was standing there the other morning.
Then this morning, I was sitting in the coffee shop and right outside the window was this vibrantly red cardinal....I always associate cardinals with my Dad.
I am getting my signs as the day approaches.....
I know he approves of my niece, his granddaughter, getting married on his birthday.
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign.....
It is truly a beautiful world if we just look around us.
Thanks, Lisa.
peace....deb t/illinois.....where cardinals are the state bird!!!
After i lost my bf in march of 2010 i've been seeing the # 3,33 and 333 alot of times everyday.Even when i check what time it is on my phone it mostly appears.What sorta annoys me is that i'm not sure if he only wants to let me know he's there or if he's trying to show me something.Alot of strange things have happened such as with the new orchid i bought after he died.3 flowers fell off 1 at a time for 3 days in a row.
I wish i had your gift, Lisa!
I love this post Lisa. I live my life by the signs i get and life has never been better. to many people brush it off as coincedence and yet there is no such thing as coincedence, so your post is very timely for so many people .... hugs and love xxx
YAY - I look up too!
My favorite things about signs is that they will keep pecking and pecking until you finally head them. You (3rd person) WILL get your sign, but the more carefully you listen, the less it has to yell.
Blessings to you and yours
:) <3
Hello Lisa
I truly believe in signs my son passed away on 5th April 2011 and since he has gone we have been seeing rainbow's on the wooden floor of our house where he collapsed and on the wall, he has also turned on my IMAC to play Eminem on ITunes or Eminem was playing on the radio when we turned the car on...Eminem was his favorite artist. He came and saw his twin brother and sister and told them he is a blue butterfly they are 4....I am have read 5 chapters of your new book and so far his name Sam has come up twice plus his dad's name Colin - Sam and I would watch your tv series he knew that I believed in the afterlife and he and I spoke all the time about it....I thank you for giving us an insight to the afterlife and what happens there it is comforting to know he is safe and happy but I am still selfish at the fact I do not accept he has gone at such a young age of 13 yrs, but he did have people waiting for him to cross his grandma and that give me some peace. So thank you for all that you do and what you give to people and one day soon I will sit down with you personally and you will meet my beautiful white blonde hair, blue eyed 6ft 1, 13 yrs old Sammy "Snowy" xo
I just wanted to thank you Lisa. Your blog April 12th is just what I needed You hit the nail on the head. I just needed that reminder. Your gift helps me stay positive about life. I hope to see you in Lilly Dale this summer. God Bless!
Lisa I love watching your shows and I have always spoken to my dear departed family members and friends and I get signs from them regularly, but the problem is I don't recognize whom it could be. I'd love to be read but don't really know how that would work but if they contact you, be sure to include it in your "messages from beyond" I'll be looking out for it, after all my name is a bit strange. Thanks
Lisa:
Not really the place to post this message, but I just wanted to let you know how very much I am enjoying your new book and I wasn't sure how else to get this message to you...Not even sure if you'll get it this way. It's really helping me with part of my journey here on Earth, since the death of my father to suicide. I have so many unanswered questions and of course the guilt associated with his untimely death. At any rate, I am looking to grow spiritually and your words are helping. I look forward to any future books you're able to write to help us learn more about the Afterlife because "I do want to know everything".
Thank you,

Brilliant post, Lisa. I had a sign today that I just went ' NAAaaaaaaaa' and had to laugh at how inventive 'they' get.
I was on facebook and coincidentally (!) was pondering some personal issues and safety and there... on the right pane... under the "People You May Know" bit was "Archangel Michael". Apparently someone has started a page for AA Michael. So that was my sign today!! AA Michael has my back!
I totally agree with signs and I do ask and receive them, not always when I want them:) I see the time 4:44 a lot! I don't know why but it was after I had my daughter. I don't know what it means but when i do see it I smile but I also think what is it? what does it mean?
hi Lisa, I had a late shift Wed evening and i am driving home after 10.30 pm through the bush on the coast line , a tawny frogmouth owl is sitting in the middle of the road. naturally i stop i flash the high beams a couple pf times with no luck the owl is still staring in my direction, i beep the horn a couple of times because im worried another car may come up. still no movement. i pull the car gently sort of close along side and open the door becaus ethen i was worried maybe he had been startled before i came and needed some help. i go "OI" and then he flies up to the tree. on as i carry on it strikes me .. i ad been askgn spirit for a sign for a bit and hadnt recieved one id noticed anyway ..so i was wrapt. and however late went onto a great site about spirit animals and theirt meanings. all relevant..
just thought id let you know.
Lisa,
I always look at the clock and see 11:11, so funny, but for me, my sign is butterflies. I see them alot and they come close to me when my guides are around, it's like they are asking me to take notice and be more aware of everything and myself. It's a comfort and it is those times when I am most intuitive.
I also just realized that I was reading your blog at exactly 11:11, how is that!
Love your work, you are a Darling
