Hello,

I’m so happy to share my story of my first ever sign from the Universe! I discovered The Secret last year when I was feeling a bit negative and it’s really changed my perspective on life and made me more positive. I’ve always been quite spiritual, and this has further extended my belief.

I am in a situation at the moment where I am in love with someone and all is a bit confusing. I am wondering if they feel the same about me. I know I should just ask but now is not the right time and it’s a long story. I’ve had a period of uncertainty where I’ve not been sure if I am on the right path. Last week I was reading about asking the Universe for signs to show you that you are on the right path. I had read a story here about someone who asked to see red roses and gave a week time limit. If she saw red roses within the week time frame, she would know that she was on track with her lover. Red roses are my favourite flowers, so I decided to pick this as my sign, knowing it’s not something I encounter often.

I asked the Universe to show me red roses, or simply 1 red rose, to symbolise if the person I am currently in love with is right for me and if I am on the right path romantically. I said if I did not see this by a week later, I would know this person was not right for me and move on.

I found myself visualising how I would see the rose or roses. My best guess was that maybe someone at work would have flowers delivered and they would happen to be red roses. The first day of the week was spent thinking too much about this, it wasn’t until I ‘let go’ that the sign appeared.

I was walking to work and passed a department store and looked in the window as I always tend to do. Usually when I look, there is always a lot of Ted Baker stuff on display. It is one of my favourite brands and it always catches my eye. This time however, the display had been moved around and the Ted Baker stuff was no longer there. Instead, there was a bunch of roses, mostly white with some pink, and 1 or 2 red ones in the middle. As I remembered my sign, I had to walk back and double check again that it was, in fact, a red rose. This was 2 days after I asked for the sign!

I felt happy to see my sign, and surely it wasn’t a coincidence that the display had been changed and flowers had been put there, when they never were normally. But just to be sure, I asked the Universe to show me a the sign again, before the week ran out.

On Saturday, 4 days after asking for the sign and 2 days after the first sign, I decided to take my dogs for a walk. I took them somewhere I never ordinarily take them. I knew the route I wanted to take, but my dog had other ideas and pulled me along excitedly into some public gardens. He pulled me over to a bench and next to the bench was a concrete box. And guess what was inside the concrete box!?

A bunch of red roses! I can’t describe the feeling I had when I saw them! They were the only bunch in the gardens and I had been ‘dragged’ over to them by my dog. I knew it was meant to be. I had to say to my mum, these are definitely roses, aren’t they? She said yes they are definitely roses. I picked them up and I read on the packet ‘roses’, as if to give me further confirmation.

I know what a rose looks like, so of course I knew they were, but I was just so in shock to see my sign so clearly and in such a way I never imagined, that I had to check.

What a wonderful feeling. Now I know I am on the right path. I look forward to continuing on my journey and sharing it, as I follow the teachings of The Secret.
