Re "signs" that people on here have mentioned I copied this from the media:
"It's not easy to be different when you’re young. ‘Who is this Scottish guy who thinks he can speak to angels? He’s delusional.’ It got to the point where, when I was around 20, I gave up on my psychic work and got a job as an events director in a hotel. But angels were never far away.
One night, as I started reading a book, a little feather fell out of it. Instantly a light came into the room and I experienced an overwhelming feeling of being loved. The next morning when I woke up, there beside my bed was my guardian angel: a gigantic black presence, wearing armour.
That was the day I committed myself to helping people connect with angels.
The significance of that feather? Finding one is like being given an angelic business card or love note. When you see one in an unusual place, you’ve been visited by an angel.
Once I did a reading for a politician who wasn’t sure he believed in angels. I told him to ask them for a sign. A day or two later, as he was giving a speech, he reached into his pocket to grab something. Out came a white feather.
All angel signs carry one central message, which is: ‘You’re on the right path. Your intuition is tuned in. Keep going in the direction you’re already
headed.’
If you’re experiencing a tough time, the sign means you’ll get through it. There’s no such thing as a bad omen from the angels – they bring only positive messages. Angel signs are also an opportunity to pause and ask them to reveal what you need to know. If nothing seems immediately clear, however, the solution is to be patient and let the meaning unfold.
Remember, angels are always there to help us, so thank them for being willing to help you find more meaning in the sign. Then listen for the answer.
How will you know when, say, an out-of-place feather is a divine message and not simply the result of a scrap between birds? Simple: you’ll feel a sudden sense of calm, and that’s because you’re connecting to angels. Sometimes a butterfly is just a butterfly and sometimes it’s a divine message. But if your first instinct is, ‘This is a sign,’ then it is a sign.
When you see something you think is a sign and you feel connected, you are. Trust your intuition. Don’t squander the moment. It’s your cue to slow down and listen.
How to know you've had a visit from an ANGEL. Feathers, ladybirds, robins and even coins contain poignant heaven-sent messages: This is what to look for, by author who's a world expert
Kyle Gray is an ‘angel communicator’ who has seen, heard and spoken to divine spirits throughout his life. Kyle points to the signs that you, too, have had a visit from angels.
Mr Gray says when you find a feather in an unusual place, you’ve been visited by an angel
Here are some simple ways to express it:
‘Thank you, angels, for revealing this sign to me.’
‘Thank you, angels, for helping me stay open to your guidance.’
‘Thank you, angels, for reminding me that you’re there.’
Getting a sign is an opportunity to pause and ask the angels to reveal what you need to know. Angels are always there to help us, so thank them for being willing to help you find more meaning in the sign. Then listen for the answer.
Angels are messengers. It’s in their nature to get in touch. They’re like your chatty girlfriend who just won’t shut up, or an over‑eager puppy who greets you like he hasn’t seen you in a month when all you did
was go to the supermarket.
Angels want to keep telling you they are around you, to assure you you’re not alone.
So what should you do when you get a sign? And how can you make encounters with angels more likely?
Let me tell you the most important thing you can do.
If you want to experience angels, you have to be more like them. Like attracts like, and it’s never truer than when we’re talking about these peaceful, timeless beings. Angels are divine energy. Before we even start talking to them we need to put ourselves in a position to align with their energy.
I often talk about how we need to raise our ‘vibration’. This may sound like hard work, but I promise you it’s really the opposite. It’s cleansing, healing and will lighten your life in multiple ways.
It means letting go of negative energy that’s not serving you. It’s about cutting out draining thoughts and draining situations. It’s about being peaceful, joyful, thankful.
Once you concentrate on raising your vibration, whether through meditation or by going outside to listen to the birds, it won’t feel like work at all. And raising your vibration will bring you closer to the essence of angels – their unconditional love, their limitless capacity to forgive, their steadfast support.
If you would like a sign, here is a little ritual you can try.
Visualise yourself surrounded by golden light. See it moving right over you. This makes your connection to angels even stronger. It’s like broadband for your prayers. The basis of this is that we are light in the same way that angels are light. It is through light that we can bring them closer to us and bring ourselves closer to them.
If you find it challenging to visualise, you can say this affirmation instead: ‘I am immersed in golden light. It has washed over my body from head to toe.’
Now say, with loving intentions: ‘Thank you, angels, for reminding me of your presence!’
You can add some gratitude to really enhance the angelic connection. I often say: ‘It feels so good to know you’re here. I’m so thankful we’re on this journey together!’
But remember they’re angels, not virtual assistants or genies you can summon from a magic lamp. Yes, they can bring you things you want and grant wishes, particularly in the early days of your spiritual journey. But if your wishes become overly materialistic, the angels will stop granting them.
Why? Because simply wishing for a brand-new car or asking the traffic lights to turn green is not going to help your spiritual growth.
It’s OK to want things – but angels are here to give you all you need, rather than all you want. Communicating with angels will give you more control over your life, more choices, more clarity, more love.
The purest part of your soul has already connected with them, whether you’ve recognised the experience or not. Indeed, we connect with angels before we come into this world. That’s why a sense of familiarity often washes over us when we experience angels. It’s like coming home.
Angels will try to reach us on the inside, sending a message through our hearts and minds. But if we’re not listening, they try other ways of getting our attention. So they’ll leave a feather or a coin, or send a magpie or a ladybird.
The signs will get more and more obvious. Eventually they’ll use a megaphone or its equivalent – like a car cutting in front of us with the message we need on its bumper sticker, or the hotel receptionist whose name tag says Angel.
Over the 20 years I’ve been helping people communicate with angels, I’ve kept a list of the signs of a divine visitation. Remember to trust your intuition: a genuine angel sign will always be accompanied by an inner sense of calm.
We’ll start with the best-known sign – a feather that appears in an unexpected place.
Black feather: Angels are absorbing your pain or other challenging emotions. Take time to ask for the extra support you need.
Blue feather: This means that angels are encouraging you to open up and be honest.
Green feather: Angels are acknowledging your capacity to give, share and love without conditions.
Indigo/purple feather: Your current experiences are providing a spiritual awakening.
Orange feather: Angels are surrounding you with harmony and light. Self-care is essential.
Pink feather: You’re surrounded by unconditional love.
Red feather: Your angels are supporting you on a physical level to help you find everything you need to feel safe and supported.
White feather: This means your guardian angel wants you to know that it’s close by and is asking you to remain positive.
Yellow feather: Angels are encouraging you to focus on what’s supportive and good for you.
Robins: These are a lovely sign – they bring a message from a departed loved one. The message is: ‘I am here with you now.’ As robins are territorial little birds, there’s a high chance they’ll visit often and be a regular messenger from the spirit world.
Magpies: These birds tell us that a loved one is sending their love and watching over us. If we see a cluster of magpies, each one represents a loved one in heaven looking down on us
Birds of prey: Eagles, hawks and other birds of prey bring a message from the angels to see things from a higher perspective; to see the bigger picture, including another person’s point of view. You need to look beyond your own personal ideas of what you want, as the universe is always leading you to your highest, greatest good.
Ladybirds: These are symbols of happiness and peace. When they appear, angels wants us to know they are present and are smoothing our path.
Rainbows: A sign that our prayers have been heard. They encourage us to have faith.
Angel symbols: These could be statues or even a piece of angel-shaped confetti on your shoe. They tell us that angels are listening and helping us.
Broken angels: I have received hundreds of emails from people who have broken an angel statue and are worried about the spiritual significance of this. But this is not a bad sign (as I said earlier, there’s no such thing). When you break an angel wing or statue, angels are drawing pain from you so you don’t have to carry it any longer or are protecting you from a negative experience.
Butterflies: A symbol of great change in your life. Can also be a reassuring message from a loved one who died after going through much pain.
Coins: These represent loved ones in heaven, particularly grandparents. It’s as though they’re coming through and offering us a shiny penny to give us a push in the right direction and wish us luck.
Dolphins: Symbols of family, freedom and deep bonds of friendship and trust. When we see them, angels are encouraging us to enjoy our friends and family.
Stars: Seeing star shapes everywhere you go is a message from heaven. Angels want you to know they’re aware of your achievements and proud of you.
Hearing your name: When you hear your name when no one is there, it’s a call to action.

, but I couldn't find an explanation for the bed episode - I had a feeling it was my mum. Don't know why. Who can explain these things.
