Not necessarily in your personal life but perhaps in nature, something you feel is dying. And something perhaps that isn't appreciated by most people but that you appreciate.
I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't revere and appreciate nature more than most of the people around me. I grew up on wooded land that had been in our family for 100 years... and saw the area around it gradually devastated and built up with golf courses and industrial parks-- this was happening even when I was a child. My parents would say "That's progress", but I could never see it that way.
I woke up this morning with the song "You're a Grand Old Flag" playing in my head. I remember learning the song in elementary school but otherwise didn't know much about it. I just Googled it and it has an interesting history. It was written by George M. Cohan in 1906 for his stage musical George Washington, Jr. The most interesting part is that it was inspired by an encounter Cohan had with a Civil War veteran. Look up the history if you're interested. I think hearing this song is definitely a sign, especially given its relation to the Civil War.
Other signs: Bald eagles soar over biden, while giant flag collapses in front of trump
Happy Election Day!!
I've been avoiding the news most of the day-- as have most of the people around me except for my husband, who is an NPR junkie. So I am not quite sure where things are at, nevertheless:
When I got home from work today I was inspired to perform an impromptu ritual. I recruited said husband to add his energy-- (he has a lot of it even though it scares him half to death). Essentially the aim of ritual was to banish and transmute the negative energy of T and what he feeds on within the country-- and to transmute it back into something positive that may re-emerge at some distant future time.
As I was working I noticed two crows had perched on a tree above us and were watching, closely. Crows are common in my backyard but it was interesting that these two seemed to stop to observe. Next, a few minutes after we were done, the most beautiful, complete, and distinct rainbow appeared in the east-northeastern sky. It was cloudy, but not raining.
For some reason, my sign from Spirit is a handbell ringing. Like a small brass handbell people sometimes use on their home altars. It's always a heads up telling me to open and listen. Yesterday I had the tv on mute while waiting for Rachel Maddow to start. The bell rang several times and when I looked at the TV there was an update with the updated EC votes, so I unmuted and they were talking about Biden's PA vote and he had pulled ahead by a huge margin.
I wouldn't doubt there is activity in the White House right now by some former presidents and others who are upset with Trump right now. A while back I had a dream about George Washington leading other deceased presidents and generals on horseback followed by armed troops from the Revolutionary War to modern troops with tanks who were going at breakneck speed toward the White House. I don't think I'd want to be in the White House right now given the look of anger on their faces. On the other hand...I hope they scare the stuffing out of everyone in the WH now, especially Trump.
@pamp I too feel very strongly that Biden has won Penn, though it has not been reported yet. I experienced a volcanic release this morning and all the infectious puss has drained out. And now I feel the relief as if we have all given birth. I now see a picture of a beautiful rose and It smells lovely. A healing has occurred.
Thank you so much for such a fantastic thread. My dad passed away nearly two years ago. I miss him so much every day.
This summer I was in a park with a friend and noticed that a butterfly was flying near us for some time. I stretched out my hand and said look that's my daddy came to say hello and the butterfly just sat down in the palm of my hand.
Twice I have been looking at the night sky and talking to my dad and then suddenly there was a shooting star. Little signs that make me feel that he is near.
