“Owl Sign Appearing Over And Over … And Happening A Lot!”

Posted on December 9, 2015 by Ellen E. Norman

Question
“I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction to determine the meaning of the sign of an owl appearing over and over — and happening a lot! I read a little online that it could be a sign of death or a spiritual message. I haven’t seen any real owls, just pictures keep popping up on TV, books, ornaments, a toy eraser, kids homework, just to name a few.”

Answer
“I usually tell people to google ‘animal totem owl’ or any other animal which keeps popping up. You’re right, it tends to be a sign from that animal totem or from a loved one who has passed away.

“Another suggestion is to sit in quiet contemplation or meditation. Ask Owl Spirit to join you and share her message. Be specific. Ask her for more signs. She will show general signs with general meanings, perhaps over the course of three or four days; this usually precipitates a bigger message, meaning or event — where you’ll have an ‘ah-hah’ type of moment. Meanwhile, you’ll notice several other signs and synchronicities which correspond.

“The Universe — your Soul, God, angels or whatever you feel comfortable calling that great Source — has many, many ways of communicating with us. Sounds like it’s got your number! Listen with your heart. You can never mistake the voice of Love.

“And have fun doing it!”

“I Saw A Silver Butterfly … Is It A Sign? A Message?”

Posted on December 9, 2015 by Ellen E. Norman

Question
“Last night when coming home I noticed a beautiful silver butterfly on my front door. It was so lovely I stopped to admire it for a while and took a picture. The butterfly then fluttered away. This morning I was getting ready in my bathroom and the same butterfly (it looked exactly the same) was dead on the floor. Is this some kind of message? Do you think it means anything?”
— Anonymous

Answer
“I believe the butterfly carries a message for you about life and death — and then rebirth. Take a look at events or circumstances in your life which appear to be ending right now. What’s coming to a close? Do you notice anything cycling back through your life, again, for reexamination? Or has something recently come full circle? I feel that certain life events are coming to a close for you — after which you will experience transition — even perhaps transformation — or a rebirth of sorts. Try to embrace the changes in your life and enjoy the journey!”

“I Keep Finding Coins All Over My House. Does This Mean Anything?”

Posted on February 12, 2015 by Ellen E. Norman

Question
“I keep finding coins all over my house. Does this mean anything?”
— Anonymous

Answer
“Yes. They are signs that your angels and departed loved ones are with you, encouraging you, and expressing their love for you. Coins, feathers, rainbows; repeating number sequences, songs on the radio; blinking lights; the scent of roses when there are none; even the animal kingdom, like a cardinal or butterflies, popping up again and again. Also notice messages on street signs, billboards, license plates. All ‘hugs from heaven.'”

Beginning A Meditation Practice

Posted on November 15, 2014 by Ellen E. Norman

Meditation is a way for your soul to connect with God and the universe. Each of us needs this connection in order to feel nourished, complete and fulfilled.

When I first began channeling, Archangel Gabriel encouraged me to begin a meditation practice. I’ll be honest: The idea sounded ridiculous to me. I was a stay-at-home mom of three children, with one in school and two at home. I didn’t know where to start.

Archangel Gabriel suggested I sit on a comfortable chair, cross my legs, and put my hands — palms facing up — on my knees. He said this shows I am open to receive.

So, I tried it. At night, after my kids went to bed. And do you know what happened? I fell asleep. I’d go into meditation and fall asleep. Every time.

But the important thing was I tried.

I then asked my angels and guides to help me find other ways to meditate. Here’s what I realized. Meditation takes on many forms. I opened my mind in meditation when I took a walk outdoors; while I folded laundry; during my morning shower. I tried to clear my mind of scattered thoughts … and simply listen.

What did I hear? My voice. The voice of my soul. Intermingled with the voice of God and the angels. Encouragement. Ideas. Inspiration. Truths.

I also joined a Monday night meditation group at a local spiritual center. And that really got the ball rolling. Once I became more comfortable practicing within a group of likeminded individuals, it felt easier to try to meditate a little more at home.

The idea is to keep it simple, sister. Take baby steps. Begin with a meditation that lasts for five minutes; then, build up to 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes or more. Take a few deep breaths, clear your mind of thoughts, and listen.

Eventually you will slip into deeper and deeper states of meditation. And enjoy the many benefits of meditation, like reduced stress, better sleep, improved health, a greater sense of well-being and — ultimately — peace. In addition, meditation is an important tool in developing your intuition.

The key is to continue practicing.
