why you keep seeing signs;
have you noticed that signs tend to appear when a desire feels especially real?
a number repeats. a name shows up. a random conversation sounds like it was written specifically for your situation.
suddenly everything feels connected.
as though the dream is leaving clues. as though reality is responding. as though something beneath the surface is trying to get your attention.
and maybe thatâs why signs are so addictive.
they transform uncertainty into certainty. they make the desire feel alive. they make it feel as though something is happening even when nothing visible has changed.
the sign becomes proof. proof that youâre on the right track. proof that movement is occurring. proof that reality is speaking.
so the mind starts collecting them.
remembering them. looking for more of them. connecting them together into a larger story. a story that seems to explain where everything is going.
but thereâs something strange about every sign.
the sign is known. the meaning of the sign is known. the excitement is known. the certainty is known. the story built around the sign is known.
every part of the experience appears and disappears, yet that which knows the entire experience never becomes a sign itself.
it doesnât arrive. it doesnât repeat. it doesnât need to get your attention. it was present before the sign appeared. present while the sign appeared. present after the sign disappeared.
you just spent the last minute reading a post about signs because you thought a sign was going to reveal something important.
and the entire time, your attention was pulled toward numbers, names, coincidences, meanings, and stories.
meanwhile, the one thing that never needed a sign to announce itself was what was aware of the sign in the first place.
