Have you ever had a dream that you just knew someone somewhere was trying to tell you something? What about hearing a meaningful song at precisely that right moment? Our deceased loved ones have many reasons to come check in with us. Guess what? You don’t have to be a type of medium to be able to notice deceased loved ones around you. My job is to connect people to Spirit – a large part of that entails talking to deceased loved ones. In order for me to help you connect with them on your own, I’ve prepped both this blog post and a worksheet. Used together, they’ll amplify your connection with Spirit and deceased loved ones. Grab your copy of the worksheet and let’s get started!

Top 7 Signs From Deceased Loved Ones
First things first. These signs can occur at any place and at any time. You can be alone or in the company of others, while you’re fully awake/sleeping or in-between. Ready? Here ya go:
In Your Dreams: This is an extremely common way to be visited by Spirit and those who’ve passed on. It’s highly likely we all can remember at least one of the dreams we’ve had in our lifetime (if you can’t, that’s perfectly fine! You were SOUND ASLEEP). Spirit visitation dreams are usually very different from ‘regular’ dreams. In these types of dreams, the person usually is providing you with comfort, strength, delivering messages or simply letting you know they’re okay and perfectly comfortable in the ‘beforelife’ (my preferred term for ‘afterlife’). In these dreams it is very common for the person to show up surrounded by a light source. This source aids them in projecting what they want to get across. Now, they can show up without a light source too. It’s great either way. People usually wake up from such dreams feeling extremely calm or healed.- Sensing Their Presence: Talk about a big one. You might sense when they are around based on a shift in the energy around you. Have you ever felt the shift in the air? What about feeling of pressure change? It’s that feeling that you’re not alone. Is someone sitting or walking next to you? The options are endless. This is a very common way to sense Spirit. The key here is to pay attention to the energy surrounding you while you do the things you used to do with them in person. Granted, some things change as we transition to another plane, however, our souls can remain similar, and our deceased loved ones love to take part in the same activities with us – just in a different form.
- Feel, Smell, Hear Them: These are huge ways. A hug, a touch, a guiding hand. Feeling a spirit’s touch is very common directly following their passing. However, some spirits prefer this mode of communication in general, and will continue to use it long after their passing. The kicker to this is that the touch doesn’t necessarily have to happen to you. Yes, I’ll explain what I mean. For example, you might notice a depression in a cushion if they are sitting next to you. Whether we like it or not, we’re all associated with different types of smells. Spirit loves to communicate via this sense. If you randomly smell a fragrance you associate with someone in particular who has passed over, it is highly likely you’re being visited by that person. They’re saying hello. Say hi back. Clairaudience – ah the art of hearing. You can hear Spirit. It’s like they’re speaking to you just the way they always did. You just know what they’re saying, or you might actually hear it (internally or externally). Do you ‘talk’ to somebody that you love in the beforelife? If so, pause for a sec and see if you can hear their response. It’s very possible.
- Electrical Interruptions: energy runs through everything in our lives. Spirit can harness this energy and draw our attention to doing so. Some examples of this are lights flickering, televisions turning on and off, making things move, starting cars, a song on the radio; all sharing with you something you need at the precise time you need it. I’ll give you an example from my own life. Phone calls, helping start cars and radio/intercom messages are big ones here. When one of my best friends passed, life was rough for me. Being a psychic medium, I could see/hear/feel/sense everything that was going on with him. I was broken, yet, I was watching him literally take flight and tell me how great it was to not be limited by a body. I was grieving, missing him, but I was happy that he was having so much fun, while being angry at myself for being weak – I mean, this is what I do for a living right? I should be used to it, no?
Long story short, it was a sensory overload, and at one point I almost collapsed. My friend realized that, backed away, and temporarily shut down my channel. He didn’t want me to hurt any more than what was natural. So after that, he stuck with more concrete physical things to show me he was around. I started getting phone calls from this number: 000.000.0000. Yep. I’d answer but there would be just silence/static/a song on the other end. Never a human on the line. A couple of days later, I left the lights of my car on as I went to teach my class at a university. When I got back, my car wouldn’t start no matter what I did or how many times I tried. Needless to say, it had been a hard week and this was the last thing I needed. Confession: I almost started crying, well, I was tearing up. I said something along the lines of: “I could really use a break here”, and my car started. I didn’t even turn the key or jump start it. It just started by itself! I knew he did that. I mean, he loved helping me in life too, but I still wanted confirmation (at this point we still weren’t ‘talking’). I went shopping in Stop and Shop right after that. There was a song playing over the store radio, but I wasn’t paying much attention. Next thing I know, there’s static on the radio and then a voice saying ‘I love you Caren’. Then static and back to the song. It was a voice I’d know anywhere! It was that voice I was dying to hear just one more time. The people in the store had no idea what was going on. Some started looking around while others were hoping for a show. It was hilarious. In life he had such a sense of humor, so it fit perfectly. He would’ve been rolling on the floor. That’s one of my more personal stories. The point here is that Spirit and our deceased loved ones know what we need, how we need it, and when. In case you’re wondering, my friend and I are back on ‘speaking terms’. Ha. - Signs: Spirit likes to use signs to show us that we are not forgotten. These signs are usually associated with a sign they liked in their living life. If you’re receiving a specific sign over and over again, it means something. It is also possible to ask Spirit for a specific sign. Want to learn how to do that? Check out this post that’s all about Spirit and signs. You can use this method to receive signs from deceased loved ones as well!
- Movement: Are your keys missing? Did they just turn up in the exact same place you keep looking in? Yeah. Spirit tends to move objects to get our attention. Sometimes we need to have something unavoidable to make us take notice. It’s kinda like a wake up call.
- Apparitions: of some sort while you’re awake. This isn’t that common and is quite hard to do. Spirit would need a lot of energy to create such an apparition, and you will usually need to be well versed in seeing them. Just because you don’t see your deceased loved one, doesn’t mean they haven’t tried to contact you. Remember that! Spirit loves the unexpected.
I hope this list is helpful to you. Just remember, this list doesn’t include every single sign. So if you want to clarify which sign you get, grab the worksheet I’ve designed for you, just for that purpose!
