My mother passed away over a year ago now and I haven't been able to feel her around me. After my father died I had lots of dreams and visits from him, but I have only had two that I can remember about my mother. I have posted on this forum before questioning this and it seems I am missing the 'signs' that she is trying to show me. My mother and I were extremely close and I am beginning to question my faith as I know she would have come through to me.....can someone help me to see these signs, I don't know what to do, it is beginning to comsume me and I am feeling very sad and alone.

I don't know how true what I'm about to say is but I read somewhere that usually people receive a sign, usually a dream with the deceased, within the month of their passing. What can be jarring about the dream is that you forget while you're dreaming that the person has passed. Then at times the person has another dream but probably not for another 6 months.

I had a similar experience with my mother who passed. I had a dream with her within a month of her passing and not very much until much later maybe 6-10 mo. One within the past month or so. For me I felt like I could hear certain things that she would say to me often being said to me but in my mind. As for a sign, the only thing I can think of is a sign is when I hear classic Spanish ballads being played by my neighbors or when I walk down the street. It never really happened before when she was alive or maybe I just didn't notice as much. But I make it a point to say 'Hola Mami' when it happens, smile, say and have a little conversation

Sometimes a spirit doesn't make their presence known because they are at peace and there is no need to return. My mother doesn't explicitly come to me but she has made her spirit known to those in need. That's who she always was even in life, putting those in need before herself. She visited the son of her dear friend, and my godmother, who is in a mental institution. My mother always supported her while she dealt with the stress that came with it and she was always kind to her son. The son had even told his mother that my mother visits him every so often. She never told him that my mother had passed for fear that she would give him undue stress. And he never said my mother visited him before she had passed unless it was in person and that was Many many years ago.

Remember your mother. And when you're reminded of her take that as a sign. Yes it can be that simple. Don't be sad but be joyful for having been such an important part of her life. And talk to her, the way you would when she was alive. You'll find that you will receive answers although not as direct as you were once used to.

Much Love,

Do you think it is because she has nothing more to give you, nothing as far as advice or reason to do, life life?

I ask these questions because I was getting so many signs by my grandmother, my closest relative till she passed, then one day nothing, zip, nil. I am taking it as she no longer needs to watch over me for I have learned any and all lessons she would have been able to give me in real and or eternal life.

Some things we just have to deal with life and learn, on our own.

i totally agree they only help you when you really need help or warn you about something but they are usually always there for you you usually can feel what they are trying to say to you etc

Are you facing a difficult time at this time? If not, maybe she doesn't see a reason to visit you, or maybe she's busy with something, or maybe she wants you to move on with life.

For me, I only got one dream from my grandfather, and that was like 4-5 years after he passed. I don't expect to see him in my dreams in the future but I'd be surprised and happy to...this is after what I figured my dream was about...my guess was about him leaving to see more of the world or go beyond the afterlife or so..

Thank you for your replies. I think I expect to feel or see signs of her as I feel my father with me, even after twenty years since his passing.
