I know it sounds fanciful, but today I visited my husband at the lovely medieval churchyard where he is buried. I have been asking for a sign over the last few days, as I have been missing him so terribly. When I arrived, there was a single white feather on his grave. Can anyone explain that ?
Hi Kate!
I think feathers are a good sign. Supposed to be a sign that a lost loved one is nearby as with robins too seemingly. I usually find feathers on the ground if I am out walking the dog or if I am out the back hanging out a washing. White feathers seem to be good luck and of course the presence of a deceased loved one. I have looked up the significance of feathers online sometimes I see black ones and I worry when I see them because I always think that is some kind of bad luck but seemingly all feathers are lucky if you see them but I'm more inclined to go with the white ones. Maybe your hubby `visiting` you when you were visiting him.

Thank you so much for sending the feather information, it is very detailed. I shall sleep well tonight, knowing that my darling is watching over me.
I got a solid eight hours sleep, last night. That is a record.
Today, the 12th, is our wedding anniversary.
The 2nd without my beautiful Valen.
I was at my little craft group today (Wednesday) and they know I am struggling this week.
Saturday, Valentines Day, is Valens birthday.
They had done me a card where each of them had done a heart in their style of crafting. So a crochet one, collage, cartoon etc. Made me cry with gratitude that I have such caring friends.
Anyway, I just got in from doing my usual of standing in the garden to say goodnight to the stars and universe.
As usual I was tearing up. Another day going past without him and another day starting without him.
I was outside at the right time, looking in the right direction to see a shooting star!!!!!
Yes, it may have been the space station, but I prefer to think that my beautiful soul of a husband, that darling loving, gentle, generous man, flew over me on this our anniversary.
So tonight, for the very first time in 16 months, I have come to bed with a smile rather than crying.
That’s lovely. Our son asked for a sign about a year ago. He also went outside, and immediately a shooting shot past. Kate. xxx
My beautiful Valen had just 3 days before he was taken, lent over to me, placed a hand in my heart and said “I will always be with. Always watching over you. Until we are together again in whatever form, wherever. Never forget that I love you”
I see that star as him saying See, I’m here, as I promised. Now go to bed!
That is so weird Mrs VT! I have just put up a post about it being Jay's birthday today and it is our son and daughter in laws first wedding anniversary this Sunday (15th). I haven't seen any signs from him to say he knows I remember his birthday but think he will have been watching from somewhere knowing that I know what day it is.
So this is really weird, incredible.
My brother and sister in law have been on a cruise to Antarctica.
We were supposed to go as it was for her 60th and had been in the planning the year before my beautiful Valen had his first round of cancer.
In the early hours of the 12th, as I put above, I saw a shooting star.
Yesterday was their last full day on their holiday.
They went on a tour of the capital of Uraguay.
They got to the coach pick up point.
The had a real, out loud, WTF moment.
There were 4 coaches.
Their coach was……..
Valen’s Bus Tours!!!!!!!!
Of all the coaches, the other side of the world.
So that shooting star I see as him buggering off to Uraguay to not miss out and have a laugh with them.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
