Spiritual Awakening Signs & Symptoms
Spiritual awakening is a process of awakening to your true nature and the interconnectedness of all things. It’s a journey of self-discovery and personal growth that can be transformative but also challenging. Sometimes, it’s difficult to know if you’re going through a spiritual awakening or just experiencing the ups and downs of everyday life.
Some event in your life triggers a spiritual awakening. Such as the passing of a loved one. Participating in spiritual development events/workshops and visiting sacred places. It could be anything. Each spiritual awakening experience is entirely different, unique, and specific to the individual. My spiritual awakening happened after I went to a psychic development workshop. I believe my spiritual awakening happened because it was the right time in my life to start fulfilling my soul’s purpose.
Below are some of the spiritual awakening signs and symptoms that I have experienced. I hope what I share can validate what you’re going through.

Here are the spiritual awakening signs & symptoms:
1. Seeing sacred geometry and sacred symbols
Within my mind’s eye and with my physical eyes, I repeatedly saw complex sacred geometry and ancient symbols. One of the symbols I saw was a spiral, the oldest symbol known to be used in spiritual practices, reflecting the universal pattern of growth and evolution.
2. Heighten sensory perception
All of my human senses were heightened. I knew things without knowing how I knew. I can hear sounds that no one else could hear. I can feel a cool breeze around my head and tingling around my body. I noticed strong smells when no one else was in the room. I can see light, images, patterns, and people in my mind’s eye. Read the post: 5 simple ways to develop your intuition.
3. Physical body changes
Within a week of my spiritual awakening, my body rapidly lost weight. I could see more clearly with my right eye, the volume in my right ear lowered, and occasionally had heart palpations.
4. Seeing number patterns
Anywhere I went, I could see the numbers 111, 1111, 333, 444, 222, etc. I saw the numbers on clocks, kitchen appliances, signposts, doors, etc. Read more about angel numbers
5. Increased synchronicity
I experienced an increase in synchronicity. The universe likes to communicate in repetition. They use people, symbols, numbers, songs, and objects to send a message that may be repeated so that you will take notice.
6. Changes to sleep patterns
I wake up several times between 2.00 am – 4.00 am. In the bedroom, I can hear whispers or sounds and perceive smells and scents when no one is there. I can sometimes smell perfume, flowers, or food; these scents originated in the spirit world and are used to help alert us to the presence of spirits. A specific scent was connected to a person who has passed on.
7. Hearing high-pitched sounds
I hear high-pitched sounds and voices in my right ear. It can happen anytime during the day or night.
8. Lucid and Vivid Dreams
On occasion, I have meaningful dreams, and I would receive knowledge, information, and advice.
9. Messages from higher beings
I receive messages from my higher self, guides, loved ones, ascended masters, and angels. They communicate using one or more of our six human senses.
10. Changes in appetite and eating habits
I suddenly desired to eliminate and reduce my intake of certain foods and drinks that my body no longer needed to consume.
11. Can’t be around anything extremely negative
I am very sensitive; anything negative affects my energy. I have stopped watching the news, reading newspapers, and limiting my time around negative people.
12. Desire to discover your soul’s purpose
I discovered my life purpose and soul mission by tapping into my intuition.
13. Emotionally Sensitive
I have bouts of unexplained depression or persistent anxiety and sudden waves of sadness, joy, frustration, and other emotions.
14. Feeling ungrounded
I feel dizzy, spaced out, or overwhelmed at times. This is the natural reaction of the physical body to intense energy moving through it. Your body does not have enough capacity to contain the energy being received, so it must be released.
15. Want to learn more about spirituality and metaphysics
I yearn to discover who I am and awaken my true potential. So, I practice and study meditation, spirituality, psychic development, spiritual healing, and personal development.
16. Feeling you don’t belong in this physical reality
Sometimes, I strongly desire to go home and reconnect with my spiritual self.

I’ve been noticing these appear over the past year. It took a break for a few months but last night I saw geometric patterns when I closed my eyes to go to sleep. I’ve had severe reactions to pharmaceuticals, had weight loss from 140 to 115 ( I’ve stabilized at 125). My eating habits changed dramatically. I constantly see 11:11. We are currently going through a shift so I’m attributing it to that.
Thanks for sharing your experiences.
After losing my brother I awoke to a white geometric shape in my room that spun slowly in a clockwise motion – scared at first but then was overcome with emotion. Only saw it once and never saw anything like it before.
I started to feel a deep yearning for”home”, and didn’t understand so I fell into despair. I cut myself off from friends and family. I struggled to stay productive on my job. I’ve always marveled on the world of metaphysics so I started watching YouTube tarot readings. I fell down the rabbit hole and finally began my awakening. I don’t eat as much and started holistic medicine treatments. I can’t stand to be around negativity too long, bright lights and loud sounds really bother me. I smell things that aren’t there. I drink much more water. Alone time is crucial. I’m very empathic. I hear a pulse and high pitched sounds in my right ear ONLY. I get a tingling/ pulling sensation between my eyes when I meditate.
Hi Buttcup
Thanks for sharing.
Do you think the symbols are our spirit trying to communicate with us in the most basic of human ‘languages’ (since our language is actually just a technological invention). I have had these experiences too. Maybe every few months – tough to say – but not super often. I wake up usually in the middle of the night, startled awake almost. I open my eyes and see right in front of them these animated glyphs ‘play out’ right in front of me. Once it was a Mayan/Native American prayer wheel, another time hieroglyphics. Sometimes it’s just a weird shape and other times a tableau of many shapes. It is intriguing and a mystery but also frustrating to me that I don’t know what it is or means or whether I’m supposed to engage with it. Maybe I am engaging with it in sleep but don’t realize it? I wish someone would write about this in detail. All I see are scientific journals talking about hypnagogia as if that explains it.
Hi
I believe spirit communicates with us in repetition using symbols, people, numbers, songs, sound and objects to send a message we will take notice off.
I’ve been having this as well, right before my open eyes. Dancing bright white geometric shapes that move and change. I don’t believe it’s hypnagogia since I lay in bed for about 20 minutes watching them wide awake.
All of these things are happening to me right now. I dont know what the end result will be. I’m pushing foward and trying to trust. Thank you for writing this.
You are welcome, Danielle
Wow, I needed this. 🙂 it’s good to have an validation to all I’m going through. I saw the sacred geometry again last night, more beautiful than ever, I always see it with rainbow colors and there was something that kept telling me that we are all made of sacred geometry. In the morning I’m feeling a huge energy shift, it feels lighter.
I’ve been going in and out of deep depression and anxiety. It’s been so hard but I’m glad at least to know it’s all part of the process.
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing, Irene
all these and more happening to me and its been a rollercoaster.BUT trusting in spirit and meditating daily and keeping in touch with my angels. It’s all good. Thank you for giving us these insights.
Hi Nardine,
You are welcome for the insights.
Ascension process… it’s beautiful and amazing but uncomfortable at times. The sacred geometry, light codes received, we are healers and light code carriers. Keep meditating… it’s spiritual growth. Seeing your aura change colores and where you are balanced or need work. So great to read and know others are in the same process.
Hi all,
I’ve had strange experiences throughout life. However, lately things are even stranger. I awake and see things. One example is November 2020 I awoke to see what looked like a digital clock with the numbers 02 02 on it in blue. There is no digital clock in my room. I didn’t have a clue what it was about. Then on January 28 2021 it dawned on me that my grandson was going to be born on 02 02 and he was! I have had other experiences like this but I’m not sure what it is all about. I’d live some insight from a medium
Hi thanks for the opportunity to share.I notice while gazing at sacred geometry art that it moves,changes color,and there’s little sparks of light that I see that move short distances within the design. Looking up the reason why is what brought me here.Most definitely in the transformation of a awakening.Im an empath.Everything is heightened.My hearing is off the charts.Theres absolutely no lying to me ,It seems that I’m a human lie detecor.Animals especially birds are far more aware of this.When I come across anytype of truth that could be questionable I get major chills n tingles.Anytype of of unjust to anything(especially animals I can not hold back the tears).I’m really trying to figure out how and where to apply these gifts to help humanity.

I’m so glad I found this. For the last year and a half so much has been happening. I see when I wake up : what looks like celtic symbols, beings – maybe elves or gnomes (its the red eyes that freaked me out), once a black lady in red floating over me, a bouquet of flowers, two little girls with their back to me (looked like twins but one with red hair and one with purple hair). I’ve seen so much when I wake up. But it’s what happens when I meditate – I see like an eye that I can go into and see snippets of videos, one after the other…flying over forests, beautiful homes, random people. They only last for a few seconds before moving to the next.
I can’t find any answers on what it all means. It’s fun and beautiful and sometimes creepy, and it would be nice to have answers.
