Soul Communication: Signs your Soul is speaking to you

Human language can conquer all but not tame the SOUL. Soul language is way too
different from the human language – language cannot comprehend the entire
spectrum that a Soul is, for language is limiting and there are aspects of it that are
unexplainable.

Soul converses through metaphors, poetry, magic, light, sound, music, signs,
energy – mere language cannot delve into the deep recess that a Soul is in its wake.

Shamans, Sages, Meditators, Healers have throughout their lives known one fact
that Soul does not speak the human language.

Soul guidance is a not an everyday thing people come across. Most people do not
even know that there are ways when Soul is connecting with them or guiding them
to achieve their highest potential.

What do we really mean when a spiritually ascending or awakened person often

mentions that society is losing its soul? It is ironically putting forward the fact that
people have lost touch, they are not connected with self and most often than not, do
not adhere to their inner or gut feelings. They also overlook the signs, not
intentionally but because they are not in tune with their higher or soul self.

Shamans, medicine people, mystics and sages throughout the ages have always known
that the soul doesn’t speak the human language.

Instead, our souls communicate with us through symbols, metaphors, archetypes,

poetry, deep feelings and magic. The human language is far too limiting to express
the full spectrum of profound knowledge, insight and revelation that the soul has to
share.

As such, most of us were never taught to tune into the dancing rhythms of our
deepest selves. Instead, due to our social conditioning we have come to heavily
rely on the mind only and its interpretation of reality. Unfortunately, our emphasis
on hard data, facts and linear logic has left a gaping hole inside of us. We fill this
empty hole with consumerism, addictions, violence and endless distractions.

Sometimes, a traumatic or extreme event in our lives shakes us out of our habitual
way of perceiving existence. But usually, most of us tend to miss the big, glaring
daily signs that the soul within us is trying to communicate with us. Not only that,
but we tend to actively mistrust, ignore or doubt any sacred form of
communication that we receive.

How can we begin to tune into the subtle voice of the soul and rewire our
conditioned brains? How can we listen to our soul’s vital messages and nourish
ourselves with its life-changing wisdom?

Here are 5 ways to know that your Soul is trying to connect with you –

1. Signs Through Dreams or Lucid Dreams

Dreams are the most common sign or language for the soul to communicate with
you. Dreams are very meaningful and have depth in them – the scenario, place and
people hold meaning and one must understand what is it, the dream is trying to tell
you.

Lucid dreams, on the other hand, express your conscious level. Lucid dreaming is a
spontaneous state to be awake in a dream and be conscious while sleeping that you
are dreaming – this is one of the most powerful methods to know what your soul is
trying to communicate with you. Lucid Dreaming is a method to explore the
hidden realms of the unconscious.

2. Repetitive Numbers or Words

Have you begun to notice a pattern when you look at the clock? Are there any
repetitive numbers that you notice too often, words?

Well, it is your soul’s way of awakening you to a message that needs all your
attention and you should tap within to know what is it that your soul is trying to
communicate with you. Number synchronicity is the most common way of your
higher self, communicating with you.

3. Synchronicity

Synchronicity is that wondrous moment in your life when your inner and outer
worlds align and something magical happens. Synchronicity is one way when
certain meaningful coincidences collaborate to create a big event in your life, for
you to ultimately realise it wasn’t coincidence at all.
Personally, I have come to believe strong in one aspect – everything happens for a
reason and nothing is by chance. When Sylvia Browne so evidently talks about
‘Soul Plan’ – how each individual is born with a soul plan; before any of us takes
birth on the Earth Plane, we all decide the events of our life that best helps us to
evolve spiritually through lifetimes. Synchronicity is a way of your higher self
communicating with you, to align you with your soul plan.

4. Intuition and Gut Feeling

What is a Gut Feeling? Gut feeling is the way of your soul warning you, or giving
you a firsthand account of what is to follow – I’m sure you must have heard now
and then, ‘never belittle your intuitive voice, it’s there for a reason’.

5. Meeting Self Through Meditation

Meditation surpasses all other methods to communicate with your Soul or vice-
versa. When an individual sits in meditation for more than 30 minutes, they truly
go into a trans state, their thoughts ceases to exist and they are truly connected with
their soul.

Most meditators experience visions or voices – that is their soul communicating

with them.

Meditation aligns our mind and body with soul – soul connects us with the spirit,
this connection is circular in nature and we are then a firebrand.

How to Speak to Your SOUL?

It might seem like a rocket science, but it is not rocket science at all. You can
simply start conversing with yourself; your higher self to be precise before sitting
for meditation or before sleeping. That is conscious aligning with your higher self

Personally, I like to talk to my soul and request my higher self to communicate

with me. It’s a very personal experience and one should follow what they feel
strongly within.
Soul Communication: 7 Important Signs to Look Out For
Save

Soul communication isn’t just reserved for medicine men or women, or

enlightened people; it is a birth right of every man, woman and child. It is a vital
part of soulwork.

For years I lived without the guidance of my soul, actively ignoring it or numbing
myself out from its voice. Since reconnecting with my soul, I have discovered that
it offers endless gifts, insights, teachings and direction that helps me to connect
with my innate wholeness and life purpose.

Observing the people in our society, I’m saddened to see how soulfully emaciated
we are. I can immediately tell whether a person has got in touch with their soul or
not by the lustre in their skin, the glow in their eyes and the type of energy they
transmit. Unfortunately, most people are shells of what they could truly become.
It’s almost like we are living our lives grabbing at whatever source of warmth we
can scavenge, when in truth, we are the fire and warmth we’re seeking for.

If you’d like to learn soul communication, you must first pay attention to the signs
that your soul is whispering. There are many types of signs out there, but below I
have compiled some of the main ones you should look out for:

1. Dream signs

In the West, psychologists believe that dreams are the unconscious mind’s way of
making sense of reality. But in ancient cultures, such as in Egypt and Greece,
dreams were messages from the spirits, gods, or divine realm. Many indigenous
cultures have also used dreams as a gateway to higher consciousness and
revelation (e.g. native Americans).

These days, most healers agree that dreams express important messages and truths
about our lives and destinies. In my experience, dreams can serve as doorways to
new insight, reflections of true inner feelings, and even portals to interacting with
spirit guides.

Pay attention to your dreams and the images, symbols and scenarios within them.
What stands out to you? You might like to keep a dream journal and record your
immediate impressions. Please note that dream dictionaries can sometimes help
you out, but they rarely convey the true message your dream is trying to transmit to
you. Why? Dreams and the archetypes/symbology within them are highly
contextual and personal. A snake, for instance, could be a positive sign for one
person, and a negative sign for another.

2. Lucid dreams

Spontaneous lucid dreams involve suddenly becoming aware that you’re dreaming
while asleep. Becoming conscious within your dream world is not only spiritually
symbolic (literally of “waking up”), but it is also an opportunity to explore the
hidden realm of your unconscious mind. This opportunity from your soul is rare,
or it could be constant without any effort on your behalf.

Regardless, it is possible to actively practice lucid dreaming. You might like to

learn more about lucid dreaming here.

If you’re in the habit of having spontaneous lucid dreams, treat it as a sacred gift.
Very few people have access to the depths of the unconscious realms. Treat this as
an opportunity to ask yourself questions and find direction that you wouldn’t be
able to otherwise access in waking life.

3. Repetitive words or numbers

How many times have you looked at the clock and seen “11:11,” “12:12,” “13:13”?
Many skeptics say that putting importance into repetitive words and numbers is a
reflection of something called “confirmation bias,” but I personally don’t believe
this is the case. It’s easy to be cynical and use the left-brained approach, but much
harder to explore the personal meaning of these experiences.

Regardless of the meaning we assign to repetitive words and numbers, the function
of them is to momentarily “wake us up.” Otherwise, why would we give them so
much significance? Whenever I see a repeated number or hear a name/word said
constantly, I take it as a sign of soul communication.
So whenever you hear a picture, word or number repeated, ask yourself, what is the
hidden message?

4. Animal omens and guides

Most of us come across animals every day. When you pay attention to these
different animals, you realize that each one has a specific teaching, message or
energy type.

However, it’s important to keep in mind that the meaning you assign to different
animals is highly personal and not necessarily the “orthodox” meaning already
established out there. So don’t feel the need to go by the “textbook” definition. Go
with your gut.

One way of discovering your own unique meanings is to observe what animals you
constantly come across every day. Watch them and try to understand what their
teaching is. What are they revealing? How do they behave, move or sound? This is
a powerful form of soul communication.

For example, you might constantly come across crows. Watching these crows, you
might realize that they are always very loud and agitated. The message you might
assign to these animal messengers could be that you need to pay more attention to
the emotions you have suppressed so that they can be released.

5. Synchronicity or serendipity

Have you ever had a string of events happen in a way that seemed special or out of
the ordinary? You might refer to these events as “serendipity” when in fact they
may have been something known as “synchronicity.”

What is synchronicity? Synchronicities are moments of meaningful coincidence,

where our inner and outer worlds align. Often synchronicity is a good way to tell
that you are on the right soul path because everything feels as though it is
unfolding without your conscious effort. You might even have the sensation that
Life/God is playing an active hand in making your dreams or aspirations come
true.

It is my personal belief that nothing happens by chance, and coincidence is an

illusion. I believe, at a core soul and spirit level, everything is interconnected.
Science attests to the fact that everything is energy. So what is synchronicity? In
my mind it is when the vibration of our thoughts matches with the vibration of
our personal destinies. Picture a funnel of water: you don’t need to force the
water to go through, the water goes through effortlessly.

So watch out for moments of synchronicity — they are powerful reflections that
you’re on the right path.

6. Gut feelings

A gut feeling is an unexplainable sensation that tells you to do (or not do)
something. Another synonym for this phrase is the word intuition. We all know
what intuition is, but most of us have trouble listening to it.

Intuition is different from the inner voice of fear because it is subtle, calm and
centered, as opposed to being frantic or aggressive. This is a very important
distinction to make. Many people believe they are being guided by intuition when
in fact they are being guided by their fearful inner talk.

Intuition, or gut feelings, can be thought of as the voice of our souls

communicating to us. Whenever you feel drawn towards something or someone
(without a fearful motive), you can be sure that this is your soul trying to guide
you.

7. Visions during meditation

Meditation is another way to contact your soul. That calm, spacious, infinitely
loving space you have entered before (even for just for a few seconds)? That is
your soul space.

Meditating for long periods of time (30 minutes or more) is a powerful way to
experience what has been referred to as the mystical experience. One common
mystical experience involves tuning into visions or spontaneous names while
you’re meditating. These visions or names might be of your current spirit guide, or
could directly be a message from your soul.

I’ve even had people tell me that they’ve received unknown songs or melodies
during meditation. Personally, I have experienced spontaneous visions and words.

But how can you tell apart normal mental chatter from visions, names or songs
from your soul? Typically, the images you see or words you hear will have a
specific theme that seems foreign (e.g. it could be from an ancient culture), and
they will be very repetitive. You will also have the sensation that somehow they are
important for you to pay attention to.

I recommend keeping a meditation journal to record these visions, images, words

or songs. This will help you to better articulate what your soul is trying to express.

How to Speak to Your Soul

There are many ways for you to actively communicate with your soul, but that is
for another article. In the mean time, I recommend simply saying a daily prayer.

Here is an example you could use, or build on yourself:

“Dear soul, I love you. Thank you for supporting my life. I’m so honored and
appreciative of your presence. If you have any messages for me, please
communicate them to me. I am open and receptive. I welcome your guidance.”

Your soul speaks to you in the language of signs and symbols, metaphors
and poetry, dreams and visions, emotions and physical sensations.

Shamans, mystics, and sages have always known that our souls speak to us.
However, we have lost touch with its language. Instead, due to our education and
social conditioning, we only listen to the thoughts of our mind. We mistrust
anything that cannot be explained rationally. As a result, we don’t always
understand what the soul is trying to tell us. Your soul tries to communicate with
you in any way it can, but the most common ways are
through intuition, synchronicity, and our physical bodies.

Your soul communicates through Intuition

If you wake up feeling heavy at the prospect of the day, it is a sure sign that your
soul is guiding you to change your life.

Okay, so we can’t wake every morning brimming with excitement at the day
ahead. There will be dentist’s appointments and grocery shopping and difficult
emails to send. But if every day feels like it must simply be got through – then
your soul is hinting that there might be a better path for you.
Your soul tells you when something is right for you by the feelings it evokes.
When you feeling excited, happy or peaceful about a decision, it is probably right
for you.

However, if something you’ve agreed to do fills you with dread, then you might
want to think again. If you keep ignoring your soul’s guidance, you may end up
sad, lethargic and depressed.

When we ignore how we feel about something, it is usually because of the

socialization we have received. We have been taught to be tidy, diligent and
selfless. We are also told we should take care of other people even if they put us
down.

The soul understands none of this. The soul knows what is right for you even if
your conscious self is denying it. It will keep whispering to you its guidance.

Your soul communicates through Synchronicity

Synchronicities are moments of meaningful coincidence. The soul will often use
such coincidences to guide us. We all have moments of synchronicity in our lives.
Like when someone phones us at the exact moment we were thinking of them. We
can use these signs to help us make decisions about the way we should go in life.

Synchronicity is a good way to tell that you are on the right soul path because
everything feels as though it is unfolding in the right way. You meet the people
you need to meet or find the right book or course to guide you. When something
or someone keeps popping into your experience it is a certain sign that your soul is
attempting to guide you.

Your soul communicates through physical symptoms.

Sometimes, when our soul has tried to guide us but we have refused to listen, it
will resort to creating health problems. It does this to warn us that things are not
right with the way we are living our lives.

If you are not listening to your soul, you may experience frequent headaches or
other aches and pains. Feeling constantly drained and exhausted is another clear
sign that you need to make changes.

If you have reached this stage, then you should definitely try to tune into the
whisperings of your soul for guidance on how to get back on your soul path.
How to hear your soul

Often, we can’t hear the soul through the constant chatter of the ego. In order to
hear the soul, we need to quieten the mind. You can do this any way you choose.

Some good ways to begin are meditation, visualization or shamanic journeying.

You can also try journaling, keeping a gratitude journal or writing with the
opposite hand to the one you usually use. You can use any creative art such as
painting, drawing, collage or photography.

Anything that immerses you and gets you into a state of flow where the mind
naturally quietens can help you listen to your soul.
