Does reuniting with your ex make sense? And if so, does the universe give you signs?

The universe is a subtle communicator; it never roars; it nudges you onto the right path through dreams, repeated numbers, and strange synchronicities. It’s easy to mistake these subtle clues. If your ex occupies your thoughts, it will evoke reminders everywhere. To help you, here are 11 signs the universe wants you to be with your ex.

11 Signs the Universe Wants You to Be with Your Ex

1. You see them in random places

Twin soul believers know that some people simply connect, and an invisible bond pulls them back together even when they move apart. If you see your ex in random places, it could be a sign that the universe is nudging you onto the same path.

2. Their name pops up all the time

There is a phenomenon called the ‘Frequency Illusion’, where you notice something and suddenly you see it everywhere. Your mind seeks it. You can distinguish between this and a sign from the universe when it coincides with a feeling of blissful calm and contentment.

3. You keep seeing angel numbers

The universe draws your attention with repeated numbers, called Angel Numbers, such as 11.11, 222, and 999, and certain numbers have particular significance.

For example:

  • 000 is associated with new beginnings
  • 222 signifies you’re on the right path
  • 555 relates to positive change

4. You dream about them

You might dream about your ex because you’re thinking about them more. However, if they appear in your dreams frequently, it’s a sign they’re manifesting you.

Ask yourself: are the dreams vivid? Do they take on a progressive narrative? Has the dream repeated on successive nights? These are all good signs the universe wants you to be with your ex.

5. You feel a sudden surge of love and warmth

We rarely feel all warm and loved up when a relationship has ended, but what if you feel warm and safe instead? This clearly signals that the universe is telling you something. Irrespective of distance, when two people are connected, these intense feelings manifest in each other. A psychic link becomes a physical bond.

6. Life circumstances keep bringing you together

Has your ex moved closer to you? Perhaps they’ve changed careers, and now you share the same client base? Or maybe a new friend wants to introduce you to this fantastic person, and it’s your ex? The universe likes to shift life situations to bring two souls back together.

7. You experience unexplained synchronicities

Carl Jung derived the term synchronicity to describe a random set of events that appear connected but are entirely coincidental. For example, you’re searching for guidance and you randomly pick up a book which has the answers. Or you’re thinking about a career change, and you meet someone who can advise you.

These are powerful signs the universe wants you to be with your ex.

8. You keep finding things that remind you of your ex

If you go looking for your ex’s stuff, you’ll find it. Here, I’m talking about random things, like picking up a book and a photo falls out of your ex. Or you’ll suddenly find one of their belongings in a random place, like an old T-shirt or watch that you didn’t expect to find.

9. You see a pink feather

We often see white feathers, which are associated with protection and guidance, but finding a pink feather is rare and a definite sign the universe wants you to be with your ex. Pink feathers represent unconditional love, healing, and romance.

10. You feel energized and confident

If you unexpectedly get a boost of energy, or you feel optimistic and confident about the future, this is a sign that your ex is thinking about you in a loving and longing way. Their intense thoughts produce waves that make you positive about reconnecting.

11. You experience hiccups, sneezing, or eye twitching

When a person doesn’t notice signs from the universe, it ups its game and sends more forceful messages. If there is no obvious reason for these physical reactions, think of them as a powerful nudge towards your ex. In many cultures, eye twitching and sneezing are associated with someone thinking about you.

How to tell if this is a sign and not longing?

If you want to know whether these are genuine signs from the universe, or just a longing for reconciliation, ask yourself:

  • Do you feel energized and confident when you experience these signs?
  • Do you feel a sense of flow in the right direction?
  • Does your gut tell you to pay attention to these signs?
  • Do you feel a positive, but calm pull towards this person?

If you experience any of the above when you notice a sign, it could be the universe directing you towards your ex. So, what should you do next?

What to do when the universe sends you signs

  1. Keep watching for patterns and synchronicities: The more you notice, the more signs the universe will send.
  2. Be open to guidance: It’s easy to dismiss these signs as foolish nonsense, but even if you don’t believe, having an open heart and mind allows others into your life.
  3. Slow down and trust your gut: You’ll know deep down whether a relationship with your ex is a good idea. Don’t rush into anything you might regret later.
  4. Test the waters: If you believe these are signs the universe wants you to get back with your ex, send a brief message and wait to see what happens.

Final Thoughts

Remember, the universe only has your best interests at heart, and it knows which path you should be taking. So, trust the signs the universe wants you to be with your ex, and don’t dismiss them as a mere coincidence.
