Why Am I Not Getting Any Signs from My Loved One in Spirit?

One of the things I hear most often from clients is: "Why isn’t my loved one sending me any signs?"
And almost every time, Spirit comes rushing forward to tell me they are sending signs. They’re sending everything they possibly can, but the signs are being missed, or they're showing up in ways the client didn’t expect.
I promise you: Your loved ones in Spirit are trying so hard to reach you. There are just a few important things we, here in human form, need to understand about how Spirit communication really works.
This is something I have witnessed countless times during my work as an evidential psychic medium. Based on my personal experiences with Spirit, and the many beautiful sessions I’ve had with sitters, here are some of the biggest reasons you might feel like you're not receiving signs ... even when you are.
When someone we love passes away, it’s natural to long for a sign, some sort of proof that they are still near. But sometimes, despite our aching hearts and desperate prayers, it can feel like silence. No dreams. No feathers. No songs. Nothing.
If you’re wondering why you aren’t receiving any signs from your loved one in Spirit, this blog is for YOU.
1. You’re Grieving Deeply, and That’s Okay
Grief is powerful. It’s not just an emotion. Grief, like love.. is an energy, and it can affect the way we perceive the subtle frequencies where Spirit communicates.
In readings, Spirit often shows me images of "static," like a radio that can't quite tune in. When grief is heavy, when the sadness, anger, or longing feels overwhelming. It's much harder to catch those gentle signals from Spirit.
I’ve seen this so many times with clients. Spirit will be sending a hundred signs, but the client is hurting so deeply that their heart can't register them yet.
If this is where you are, please be kind to yourself. This isn’t a punishment, and it doesn’t mean your loved one has forgotten you. It simply means you're human and you're healing.
2. You’re Looking Too Hard
Another common theme I see searching so hard for a sign that it actually blocks the experience.
When we are in a state of desperation or constant analyzing "Was that them? Maybe it was just coincidence? Why haven’t they come through yet?" It creates tension that closes our energy field a bit.
Over the years, I’ve noticed signs usually come when the mind is relaxed. Personally, some of the clearest signs I've ever received from my loved ones came when I wasn’t even trying, but when I was doing the dishes, folding laundry, or taking a shower.
Spirit often slips in during those quiet, in between moments when we aren’t gripping so tightly.
Trust that Spirit knows how to reach you and sometimes, letting go allows them to come closer.
3. Signs Come in Unexpected Ways
One of the most important lessons I teach during readings and mentorships is: Spirit is creative.
You might expect a vivid dream visit, but instead, they send you a song on the radio that stops you in your tracks. You might hope for a vision, but they drop a feather at your feet, or send you a specific smell that reminds you of them.
In my experience, Spirit communicates in hundreds of ways, but we often miss them because we are looking for something big, loud, and unmistakable.
Here are some common Spirit signs I often see come through for my clients (and for myself):
Sudden chills or goosebumps without an explanation
Finding coins, feathers, or small objects
Flickering lights or electronics acting oddly
Songs that come on at just the right moment
A random memory that feels deeply emotional
Feeling their presence during stillness
Spirit works in subtle, everyday ways.
If you're unsure whether you're recognizing the signs, I’m here to help. I offer intuitive development sessions where we can explore how Spirit communicates with you personally, how to recognize their signs, and how to strengthen your ability to feel them more clearly.
Sometimes just a little bit of understanding can open a floodgate of connection. And Spirit wants to communicate with you.

4. Your Loved One Is Respecting Your Healing
There have been times during my mediumship sessions where Spirit tells me they have intentionally pulled back a little not because they don’t love you, but because they want to support your healing journey.
Spirit wants to uplift, not overwhelm. Sometimes receiving constant signs could keep you stuck in grief instead of gently moving forward.
They are still with you.
They are simply trusting your soul’s timing.
Even in silence, they surround you with love.
5. Timing Matters More Than We Think
Spirit operates outside of time the way we understand it. While we live day by day, Spirit sees the bigger journey.
In many readings, Spirit has shown me that they wait for the perfect moment. The moment you are ready to fully feel and receive their presence.
If there’s a delay, it doesn’t mean anything is wrong. Sometimes there are lessons unfolding, new doors opening, or soul growth happening behind the scenes
.
No connection is ever lost. It's just sometimes waiting for the right divine moment to fully bloom.
If you feel like you're not getting signs from your loved one, know this:
Our loved ones in Spirit are with us.
You are not doing anything wrong.
Your bond with them is unbreakable.
Keep talking to them. Keep trusting your heart. Keep living, loving, and honoring them through your beautiful life.
And if you ever need a little extra guidance to understand how Spirit speaks to you, I am here to help. Through intuitive development, we can open the door together and you might be amazed at how much love and communication has been waiting for you all along.
