To me every hour of the light and dark is a miracle, Every cubic inch of space is a miracle, Every square yard of the surface of the earth is spread with the same, Every foot of the interior swarms with the same. WALT WHITMAN
There’s something that happens after we lose someone we love—especially our Rainbow Ones—that transcends reason.
It’s quiet. Mysterious. Often subtle. And it begins when we stop grasping to hold on, and start softening into something deeper: trust.
And then… signs begin to appear.
Feathers in places they shouldn’t be. A breeze through the window just as you think their name.
A dog in a wheelchair who looks just like your baby. A whisper of a song, or a number that follows you all day.
When we’re open, the universe becomes a bridge. And our Rainbow Ones? They become fluent in its language.
Before we dive into the magic, I need to say something tender but true:
If you’re still holding blame—against yourself, others, or life itself—it can be really hard to hear your Rainbow One.
That’s not because they’re not trying to connect. It’s because our inner world becomes foggy with judgment, shame, or guilt. And when that fog is thick, it clouds the soft, sacred frequencies of love that synchronicity travels on.
That’s why the last chapter matters so much. Forgiveness isn’t about excusing the past. It’s about clearing the path. It’s about reclaiming the open-hearted innocence that helps us truly listen to Spirit.
And your Rainbow One? They’re Spirit. They’re Love. They’re here.
When we release the heavy, we rise to meet them.
A beautiful human named Aja from SPARC sent me an email:
"We have a 3-month-old Queensland Heeler puppy with cerebellar hypoplasia and is in urgent need of a foster home. I wanted to reach out to see if you may know of any resources."
These are the 2 pictures I was sent.
I didn’t know why, but my heart cracked open.
Even though I already had Fenix—a special needs husky with the same condition—something called me to go film her story. Just to share. Just to help.
But there it was. The first synchronicity:
She was a ‘Queenslander’ (the type of Blue Healer she is, named after a State in Australia). And I’m a Queenslander. I was born in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
That might seem small, but to me, it mattered. And it was a CLEAR sign of the times ahead.
That’s what slipped out of my mouth the moment I met Ellie.
Not because she looked helpless (she did). Not because she needed love (she did).
But because something inside me knew.
This wasn’t about helping a rescue find a home. This was a homecoming. For me.
Everyone told me not to bring her home. I already had too much going on. But my intuition—so clear now because of the grief I’ve processed—was louder than logic.
So I said yes. And every step that followed confirmed it:
Ellie wasn’t random. She was divine design.
Here’s the truth: I never would have brought Ellie home if I hadn’t grieved the loss of my Mum.
It might sound unrelated—but it’s everything.
Dr. Gabor Maté says that when we disconnect from our authenticity—our freedom to feel, to need, to express—we also lose our connection to intuition. Because intuition doesn’t live in the mind. It lives in the body. In the gut. In that quiet whisper that only speaks when we’re willing to feel. Reference: When we honor our needs and feelings our intuition and Higher Life alignment grow
When we suppress our emotions to stay "strong" or "get through it,” we become cut off from that inner knowing. And when we’re cut off from our intuition, it becomes nearly impossible to sense the signs, to feel the guidance, to trust the call when it comes.
After my Mum died, I learned how to be okay. I learned how to be strong. But it wasn’t until years later—when I finally let myself grieve her death fully—that something changed in me. I softened. I broke open. I began to feel again. And in doing so, I reconnected with my body, with my needs, with my true self.
That reconnection is what made it possible to hear the whisper that said: "Go meet this dog."
And not just hear it—but trust it.
But more importantly when I saw her for the first time, and I just felt through all of my being, that she was mine, I heard it, and I had the courage to follow through with it even though everyone around me was encouraging me in the opposite direction.
Intuition isn’t some magical power only available to mystics. It’s a natural ability that gets stronger the more we feel. The more we honor our authentic emotional experience, the clearer our inner guidance becomes.
So if you’re wondering how to trust yourself… how to know what’s real… how to follow the signs…
Start by feeling what you feel. Start by honoring your grief.
Because every tear you allow is a doorway to your inner knowing. And your Rainbow One will meet you there.
Carl Jung defined synchronicity as a "meaningful coincidence." A seemingly unrelated event in the outer world that connects perfectly to your inner world. No cause. Just connection. Just meaning.
Synchronicities are life’s way of saying, “You’re on the right path.”
They aren’t here to be analyzed—they’re here to be felt. And they usually show up when we’re in alignment with the deeper rhythm of our lives. That’s why grief, when met consciously, creates the perfect environment for synchronicity.
Because grief strips us down. It softens our defenses. It wakes us up to the unseen.
And that’s where our Rainbow Ones live now—in the unseen.
So when you get quiet, when you trust your intuition, when you let yourself feel… That’s when the signs show up.
Because you’re listening. Because you’re ready.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard from clients: "I just want them to send me a sign." And then in the very next breath, they’re in tears over finding one of their toys under the sofa.
Every time you find something of your loved one’s—it is a sign. A practical, powerful invitation to connect.
You can even begin to communicate with them as you go through their things. Ask them about each item: What do you want me to do with this? Let their love guide you.
We want magic. We want skywriting. But most of the time, signs are woven into the ordinary.
That toy under the couch? That’s a sign. That half-used bag of treats? That’s a sign. That muddy blanket or torn leash? Yep, that too.
If we treat these everyday moments as invitations, they become sacred.
And ironically, the more we engage with the practical signs, the more mystical the universe becomes.
Let every item become a portal for reconnection. A chance to remember. To feel. To ask.
Ask your Rainbow One what they’d like you to do with each thing. Talk to them. Let yourself hear their voice back.
Whether you keep, give, toss, or transform—it’s all sacred.
There’s no rush. No timeline. And absolutely no wrong way.
Just moments. Invitations. Opportunities to be with their love.
I encourage you to view every time you stumble upon their belongings as an opportunity—a sign from the universe inviting you to connect with your loved one. Piece by piece, trust yourself through this process. I love the idea of asking your loved one what they’d like you to do with each item.
And here’s something wild, and maybe a little mystical:
Animals—especially dogs—don’t carry the same egoic individuality that we humans do. They’re more like a giant wave of one shared frequency: Love.
So when you connect with any dog, you can connect with your Rainbow One.
That goofy lab that made you laugh on your walk? That might’ve been your pup saying hello. That rescue who came and licked your tears? That might’ve been them in disguise.
Great Job! That’s Week 12 Reading Complete 🏆 🎉 😁 🙌
