I’ve written before about awakening—about that moment when you recognize yourself as a light being having a human experience. But what I haven’t talked about enough is what happens after. What happens when you’re no longer just waking up, but actually awake and aligned.
The synchronicities don’t just continue. They multiply. They get louder. They become impossible to ignore.
The Shift in Seeing
Before alignment, synchronicities felt like strange coincidences—little winks from the universe that I might notice or might not. I’d see 352 on a clock and think, “Huh, there it is again.” And then I’d move on with my day.
But once I stepped fully into knowing—once that light switched on over my intuition—everything changed. Now 352 isn’t just a number I see. It’s a conversation. A confirmation. A gentle hand on my shoulder saying, You’re exactly where you need to be.
And it’s not just 352 anymore.
Once you’re aligned, synchronicities stop being occasional and start being everywhere. You can’t not notice them. The woman at the coffee shop mentions the exact book you’d been thinking about that morning. You’re struggling with a decision and three separate people—who don’t know each other—say nearly identical things to you within 24 hours.
This isn’t magical thinking. This is what it looks like when you’re tuned to the right frequency.
Gratitude: The Amplifier
Here’s something I’ve come to understand: heartfelt gratitude seems to turn up the volume on synchronicities. Not performative gratitude—not the kind you force because you’re “supposed to” be grateful. I’m talking about that deep, cellular appreciation for being alive, for being here, for being part of something so much greater than this singular reality we see with our eyes.
When I’m in that space of genuine gratitude, things flow. Doors open. The right people appear. Solutions present themselves before I’ve even fully articulated the problem.
I’ll be struggling emotionally, asking the universe for guidance—Why am I still feeling this way? Haven’t I done the work?—and that same day, a video will appear in my feed that speaks directly to where I am. Not generic inspiration. Specific. Personal. Reminding me how far I’ve come, telling me to honor the low moments as part of the process, showing me exactly what I needed to hear in exactly the words I needed to hear it.
You can’t make this stuff up. And once you’re awake, you don’t need to.
Learning to Trust What You See
If you’re reading this and you’re in that tender space of just beginning to notice—where you’re seeing the signs but still questioning whether they’re real—let me tell you: they’re real. Your intuition isn’t broken. The universe isn’t playing tricks on you.
The awakened life isn’t about forcing synchronicities to happen. It’s about becoming available to see what’s already there. It’s about trusting that the light you are is connected to the light that runs through everything else.
Start small. Notice what you notice. When a song comes on the radio at the exact moment you need to hear those lyrics—don’t dismiss it. When you think of someone you haven’t talked to in months and they text you five minutes later—pay attention. When you’re looking for an answer and a stranger’s T-shirt has the exact words you needed to read—say thank you.
The Language of Alignment
For those of us who are already here, already awake and walking this path—you know what I’m talking about. Synchronicities have become a second language. We recognize them the way we recognize the face of an old friend. They’re proof that we’re not making this up, that we’re not alone, that there is something so much greater holding all of this together.
I don’t know why 352 found me all those years ago when I was a young adult, or why it still shows up now when I need the reminder. But I do know this: I’m not who I was before I started paying attention. I’m not who I was before I allowed myself to know.
And neither are you.
The synchronicities aren’t the destination. They’re the breadcrumbs. The love notes. The evidence that you’re on the path you came here to walk.
So keep noticing. Keep trusting. Keep saying thank you.
The universe is talking to you. And you’re finally fluent enough to understand.
