Do you believe in signs? Finding a lady bug. Or a spider crossing your path. Seeing repetitive numbers appear in various places. Looking at the phone at exactly 11:11. Or maybe even find a feather on the ground while walking? Those are signs.
Did you know that you basically have a team of spirit guides, angels and ancestors cheering you on? Communicating with you, sending you signs, and intuitive messages, such as feathers.
The more, we take notice of the signs, and start to follow them, the more we build a connection to our intuition. It is like a muscle that you are training.
We are not only our logical side of our brain but also our right hemisphere that is governed by the moon which represents all things intuition. Our right side is even more activated as a woman.
What does it mean when you find a feather on your path?
