Signs/messages after a person passes away

My grandmother, mother and cousin have all passed away and I've had communications of some sort or the other with all of them, more than once. Too many to recount on here or be ridiculed for intensely moving experiences which have had an impact on my life, beliefs and faith.

I've always been sensitive with an open enquiring mind and know that there is far, far more to life and passing on than we know. It's arrogant to think we know everything about this universe. Amazing things happen during life, during and after death. Fact.

Water not Waterford

In one of the bedrooms we have touch tap bedside lamps. I remember one day feeling very down and wandering into the room I noticed one of the lights was on. This has continued to happen over the years and whilst I know it is not actually my mother sending a sign it brings memories of my mother’s love and comfort to me. I don’t think I will ever be changing those lamps. 🩷

Touch lamps come on by themselves if there is a power cut or lowering of the current. That can be the sceptical explanation. However I think electrical items can be a means of our loved ones who have passed controlling electrical impulses to send us messages. When we got back from father in law’s funeral all the lights suddenly flickered and dimmed. After my son’s funeral the boiler stopped working and we had no hot Waterford a couple of days but there was nothing wrong with it and it suddenly came back on. Some months later my son’s computer suddenly burst into life. Now when something electrical goes wrong I ask him to put it right for me.

Over two years ago my granddaughter miscarried her baby, she was nine weeks pregnant.For a week afterwards I got very small white feathers appearing in my house.I told my DGD and both she and I said they had come from her baby.

Yes, Maremia I did keep it, would've felt too weird to eat it Delila after all I didn't know where it came from

It did give me comfort and made me laugh & think of my wonderful Dad with happiness rather than tears but after a while it started to look like some kind of wizened religious relic which was spooky rather than comforting so I buried it by my rosemary (for remembrance) bush.

Some time after my dear sister died I was in her bedroom with my brother in law helping him organise her stuff to give to charity when we both stopped because her jewellery/music box was playing. It hadn’t played for years. And once the music stopped it never played again.
We didn’t feel at all spooked we just sat on the bed in tears.

After my husband died our bedside clock/radio would switch itself on at night at the time the news came on he always listened to the news before he went to sleep, same thing in the morning, he would awake to the sound of the news.The television did the same, it would defiantly been switched off, but at 10pm every night on it came for the news which he always watched, no-one had put it on! He liked to sit on his own in the front room to do paper work.I would go in there in the evening and find the radiator turned on, when I knew no one had done it!
I saw him in a dream as well .He was standing with a large group of people in what looked like a railway station.A train suddenly appeared and him and the rest of the group rushed forward to meet the people getting off it.I like to think he had been given a part in the Meet and Greet Party because that is what he enjoyed doing.

Silver twigs….that’s just the kind of sign I meant! I hope it helps

It's not something I normally believe in, but a few days after my mother died I went into her living room and the little, blue, Egyptian model of a hippopotamus, that lived on her mantlepiece, had moved to the other side of the mantlepiece. No one else had been in the room and it did make me wonder.

About a month after my husband died I was washing dishes and listening to music on my playlist. It was a cloudy, dreary day. A song came on that was a favorite of mine and my husband. At the same time the sun came out. Soon after the song was over the sky clouded up again. I just had the feeling that my husband was nearby as strange as that sounds.

I saw my lovely daughter in law a few days after she died. I was looking down at my laptop sitting on the sofa & I suddenly had a feeling to look to my right. When I did so K was standing alongside me looking at something on the wall opposite us, as if she was watching tv. I looked over at it & saw a kind of film playing with some young women bending down doing something, I couldn't see what. K was smiling and said 'I never knew they cared so much!' it was quite different to a dream, much more alive somehow. Next time I saw my son, her partner, he said her sister's had done a long run to get some money for charity. I didn't know them, they lived miles away, but they do do running & K & I had seen them tying their boots up!!!
Then I was in Kelmscott Manor where I help, I crossed a room to go to the loo before they opened. For some reason I looked over my shoulder and as I did so someone said 'Boo!' in my ear!!! They do have a few spooky things happen, information boards moving, tea cups being moved. I love it & find it comforting & friendly, not scary. The last story goes to my mum though, it took place in a Landmark Trust Holiday house in Devon.

I have to ask Nannee49, did you keep the sweet?

hamster58 I’m normally a very sceptical person, however 14 months ago the love of my life died unexpectedly, only 63. (I didn’t live with him) He had a very active life as SAS, intel & 18 years as 1 para. If there had been anything I could have had from his possessions it would have been the ‘green army scarf’ he wore day in and day out. One day 7 months after he was cremated, I was walking in the new neighbourhood where I’d moved to, only to see the identical scarf on the pavement muddy and soaking wet.

A draft, perhaps?

That should be draught in my earlier (I blame autocorrect 😅)

I know it's each to their own when it comes to belief but I would love someone to possibly explain how a heart shaped, red and white Haribo sweet hit me on the arm through the open car window on an empty road with no pedestrians around either.

“I take comfort from knowing that those of my relatives that believed in this life, are now with Jesus, but I’m also sorrowful that those who did not believe, are in that other terrible place.”

I’m very struck by your comment. I’m sure your religious belief gives you great comfort in many ways, Hippychick”, but what a terribly sad burden of sorrow you must bear on behalf of your non-believing relatives.

After my husband died I was literally followed around by a robin (he loved birds). A wonderful butterfly entered our conservatory after my mother died and stayed for several minutes. Yes, I do believe we are being watched over for many other reasons too. I believe that there are many, many things we do not understand and those who are open to such things, will notice them

I like to think these signs genuinely mean those who have passed are near & find it comforting.

My dear mother passed last October. Both my daughter & I just wanted to know that she was now happy and at peace & would ask for a sign. One evening my daughter & son-in-law were in their kitchen when they heard a sound from behind the curtain. My son-in-law jokingly said to my daughter ‘it’s your Nanna’. When they looked part of a sign the grandchildren had put up for Halloween had fallen down & was swinging…it said ‘Happy’.

One the same evening I was at my house alone watching tv. Suddenly a heart decoration hanging from a cupboard door fell to the floor. ‘Happy heart’? We like to think so.

The night of mums funeral i was in bed feeling distraught. A bright light appeared on the ceiling. It gradually faded to nothing. I was overwhelmed with peace. I felt sure she sent me a goodbye message.

If you're open to noticing 'signs' you'll find them. I hope they are comforting.

Yes! Too many to list...

Don't really go with stuff like this BUT the oddest thing happened when MIL passed very suddenly. Two days after she died I had the strongest smell of her perfume in my bathroom. Tweed which I never liked. It was so odd and strange and bothered me for ages.

No, I don't believe in ghosts or afterlifes, once you're dead that's it, the end.
People just attach things to grief, they see a feather falling while they think of thir dead dad and decide it's something to do with them. But what about all the other feathers they see?

People say a bird (often Robins) will fly around them, but birds do that all the time.

A light flickers, which lights do all the time.

My stepdad died last week, we never had a good relationship but he'd been asking about me the day before he died. I didn't find out until Saturday morning, but on Friday afternoon (around the time he died) my electrics blew, my cat was acting really odd and my dishwasher flooded my kitchen.
Now was that my stepdad? Or was it the fact the switches tripped due to getting wet somewhere and the cat was bothered about the water and me stressing about it all?
