Does it make sense to reunite with an ex? And if so, is the universe giving you signs?
The universe is a subtle communicator; he never roars; it pushes you on the right path through dreams repeating numbersand strange synchronicities. It’s easy to get these subtle clues wrong. When your ex occupies your thoughts, it will trigger reminders everywhere. To help you out, here are 11 signs that the universe wants you to be with your ex.
11 Signs The Universe Wants You To Be With Your Ex
1. You see them in random places
Double soul believers know that some people just connect and an invisible bond brings them together even when they are apart. If you see your ex in random places, it could be a sign that the universe is pushing you down the same path.
2. Their name keeps coming up
There is a phenomenon called “Illusion of frequency‘ where you notice something and suddenly see it everywhere. Your mind is looking for it. You can distinguish this from a sign from the universe when it coincides with a feeling of blissful peace and contentment.
3. You keep seeing angel numbers
The universe draws your attention with repeating numbers called Numbers of angelsfor example, 11.11, 222 and 999, and some numbers have special significance.
For example:
- 000 is associated with new beginnings
- 222 means you are on the right track
- 555 refers to positive changes
4. You dream about them
You could dream about the ex because you think about them more. However, if they appear frequently in your dreams, it is a sign that they are manifesting you.
Ask yourself: are dreams vivid? Do they accept a progressive narrative? Did the dream repeat itself several nights in a row? These are all good signs that the universe wants you to be with your ex.
5. You feel a sudden rush of love and warmth
We rarely feel warm and loved when a relationship is over, but what if instead you feel warm and safe? This clearly signals that the universe is telling you something. Regardless of the distance, when two people are connected, these strong feelings manifesto each other. A mental connection becomes a physical connection.
6. Life circumstances continue to bring you together
Did your ex get close to you? Maybe they changed careers and now you have the same customer base? Or maybe a new friend wants to introduce you to this fantastic person and it’s your ex? The universe loves to shift life situations to bring two souls back together.
7. You experience an inexplicable synchronicity
Carl Jung coined the term synchronicity to describe a random set of events that appear related but are completely random. For example, you are looking for a manual and randomly choose a book with answers. Or you’re thinking about a career change and you meet someone who can advise you.
These are strong signs that the universe wants you to be with your ex.
8. You keep finding things that remind you of your ex
If you go looking for your ex’s stuff, you’ll find it. That’s what I’m talking about random thingslike when you pick up a book and a picture of your ex falls out. Or you suddenly find one of their things in a random place, like an old t-shirt or a watch that you didn’t expect to find.
9. You see a pink feather
We often see white feathers associated with protection and guidance, but finding pink feathers is rare and a sure sign that the universe wants you to be with your ex. Pink feathers symbolize unconditional love, healing and romance.
10. You feel energetic and confident
If you suddenly feel a surge of energy or feel optimistic and confident about the future, this is a sign that your ex is thinking about you with love and longing. Their intense thoughts create waves that make you feel positive about reconnecting.
11. You experience hiccups, sneezing or eye twitching
When a person ignores the signs from the universe, they up their game and send stronger messages. If there is no obvious reason for such a physical reaction, consider it a strong push towards your ex. In many cultures, winking and sneezing are associated with what someone thinks of you.
How to understand that this is a sign and not longing?
If you want to know if these are real signs from the universe or just a desire for reconciliation, ask yourself:
- Do you feel energized and confident when you experience these signs?
- Do you sense movement in the right direction?
- Does yours gut tell you pay attention to these signs?
- Do you feel a positive but calm attraction to this person?
If you feel any of the above when you spot a sign, it could be the universe directing you to your ex. So what do you do next?
What to do when the universe is sending you signs
- Keep watching for patterns and synchronicities: the more you notice, the more signs the universe will send.
- Be open to suggestions: It’s easy to dismiss these signs as silly nonsense, but even if you don’t believe it, an open heart and mind allows others to enter your life.
- Slow down and trust your gut: You’ll know deep down whether it’s a good idea to be in a relationship with your ex. Don’t rush into anything you might regret later.
- Test the waters: If you think these are signs that the universe wants you to get back with your ex, send a quick message and wait to see what happens.
Final thoughts
Remember that the universe only cares about your best interests and it knows the path you should take. So, trust the signs that the universe wants you to be with your ex and don’t dismiss them as mere coincidence.
