9 Signs of Spiritual Awakening You Should Know About
Undergoing spiritual awakening is one of the most alienating, lonely, confusing, yet extremely beautiful experiences in life. To put this simply, experiencing spiritual awakening means the start of your initiation on your spiritual path and growth.
Without spiritual awakening, most sacred women go through their lives chasing the emptiness of fame, money, respect, and power in an attempt to be happy.
However, the most underappreciated factor of spiritual awakening is that it can happen in the most unexpected timing. This means you can’t plan for it. The awakening comes into your life and shakes things up like an earthquake.
But the most beautiful thing about awakening is that it will occur when you need it the most. Once you experience spiritual awakening, your soul will be free, and you will come to terms that nothing external in this world, such as money and power, will bring you true happiness.
But how do you know you’re undergoing spiritual awakening? Below are essential signs:
1. You Feel Like You’re Coming Alive
When experiencing spiritual awakening, you may feel like you’re looking at the world for the first time through a new lens. This is the “wow” factor of going through this experience. You may also feel like you’re experiencing everything in the world for the first time.
The colors will be more vibrant, and everything that once looked and felt dead is alive and present. Even your food tastes better than it has before. You may also notice that small and simple things in the world fill you with appreciation and joy that no one can take away.
Your surroundings look spellbinding, the trees are amazing, and you have a new appreciation for sunsets and sunrises. Additionally, you will feel that your mind amplifies your appreciation of beauty, and you have this more profound connection with nature that fills your heart with a sense of wonder and awe.
This is one of the most beautiful signs of spiritual awakening; everything under the sun coming alive for the first time in a while.
2. You Lose Worldly Ambitions
Spiritual development is often accompanied by a loss of attraction to worldly achievements. You will notice that the things that were once very important to your ego, such as success, recognition, societal status, and wealth, seem shallow and unattractive. Deep down, you know that nothing external and superficial will fully satisfy you; everything you need to be happy is inside you.
You will also be more compelled to explore the depths and nadirs of your inner self to discover who you truly are. This discovery becomes more rewarding than pursuing external stimulation and pleasure. If you’re a fan of nightclubs, bars, and other socializing activities, you will lose interest and instead find yourself spending more time alone at home or in a quiet place.
The more you lose interest in identifying with your identity, the less you will care about being understood by people and recognized for your achievement. Additionally, you won’t be interested in defending your position or proving to people that you are right. This helps you rediscover your inner freedom and find joy within yourself.
3. Heightened Synchronicity and Intuition
When undergoing spiritual awakening, you will experience an increased sense of synchronicity and intuition. This means there is something bigger than you that takes over your life’s steering wheel. You will start operating from a position of satisfaction in your inner self, and your mind will be more at ease.
Instead of looking for all these exterior signs to do something, you will start depending on the inner compass of what you feel is right. This is confirmed by intensified synchronicity.
For example, you could be thinking about moving to a new state to be closer to your family or looking for a more fulfilling job. Just as you’re going about your day, you get a job offer in the state you wanted to move to. This is the type of synchronicity you will start experiencing with nature when going through a spiritual awakening.
Leading a spiritual lifestyle means handing yourself over to life completely to live joyfully and simply. Heightened intuition and increased synchronicity are vital signs that nature and life are taking care of you.
4. You’re an Emotional Roller Coaster
When getting a spiritual awakening, you may experience emotional lows and highs. These episodes are accompanied by a feeling that you don’t truly recognize who you are. Unfortunately, this is true; you won’t recognize yourself because your inner self will start phasing out your old identity.
As you get old, you will experience an emotional rollercoaster. Most people identify this time as the darkest night of the soul. This is because it’s one of the most challenging times during your journey to a spiritual lifestyle.
As you go through the emotional roller coaster, your personality will start thinning out, and your true nature will surface as your inner light shines through. Your vibrational frequency will increase, and you will feel all your old and unresolved emotions. As the feelings are pushed to the surface and released, you will be quite overwhelmed if you don’t know what’s going on.
Unfortunately, you have to go through this stage because the unresolved emotions can’t survive the new you. You could go through immense sadness for numerous hours building up within you. And all of a sudden, your inner light shines through, and you feel uninterrupted, pure joy like you have never before.
5. A Desire to Be Your Authentic Self
Have you noticed a recent sudden push to be your authentic self? This is a natural result of spiritual awakening. When leading a spiritual lifestyle, you will become more direct, honest, and transparent with yourself.
You will also be more aligned with your inner thoughts. This makes it more contrasting and painful to compromise your authenticity. It will also be more challenging to go against what your inner self knows to be true.
Unfortunately, in today’s superficial world, being more authentic and honest in your dealings is likely to land you in trouble with other people. But during the spiritual awakening journey, you’re likely to desire a simpler and more morally correct lifestyle.
The Indian spiritual tradition speaks about the Purushartha, the four different stages humans go through during evolution. According to tradition, most individuals are often ruled by the first two, which are pleasure-seeking and security.
The third stage of human evolution, according to the Purushartas, is the Dharma. It means living from a position of doing the right thing instead of focusing on your personal preferences. This means serving the whole instead of your individual self. The spiritual awakening journey comes with an amplified desire to serve your community and the people around you.
6. Your Dreams Become More Vivid
Spiritual awakening affects more than your waking life. You will start experiencing more vivid dreams. It will also be easier to remember your dreams and understand them.
This means that you will better understand what is happening while you’re sleeping and can interpret what you saw when you wake up in the morning. You will also have a divine understanding of how the dream connects with your real life, especially where you are in your spiritual awakening journey.
According to experts, the key to dream interpretation is not looking at it literally but interpreting the clear visuals and symbols in the dream. Because dreams are rooted deep in the subconscious mind, it’s easy to understand them when you’re spiritually awakened.
When you’re going through a spiritual awakening, you will understand the dream language and feel the emotions it evokes without the need for outside interpretation.
7. Experience a Shift in Your Relationships
Have you lost two or three friends recently? Have you noticed that you’re no longer close to people you used to talk to every day? This could be a tell-tale sign that you’re going through a spiritual awakening.
You may notice that you have outgrown some family members and friends. This is because your energy is vibrating on a different level than them and your lives no longer resonate. You may break away from some people because your lives were meant to take paths that lead to different directions.
Additionally, you will lose friends because you’re leaving behind your old interests and a mindset that connected your lives. You will no longer be fake-nice. You are now more protective of your energy and time and treat your inner self with more care and compassion.
You may also notice that you’re enforcing healthy boundaries in your relationships and voicing your concerns without fear. This alone will shake up your relationship, and you’ll find yourself losing some people.

8. You Feel More Compassionate
A major sign of spiritual awakening is an ever-growing sense of empathy and compassion for other people. You look at people, and you understand that they might be going through a lot in their daily lives. Your subconscious mind knows that being a human is tough, and everyone around you is stressed out.
You will also develop a sense of empathy for what they are experiencing. Becoming more compassionate helps you see beyond the hard shell people put out. You will also accept them as they are with all their imperfections without expecting too much.
The more your inner light shines, and you are in contact with your spiritual self, the more you are able to be empathetic and see the light that shines within other people. You will also distinguish when someone’s light has been dimmed without getting too emotionally involved.
You will allow people to be who they are meant to be and appreciate them without trying to change them. This will help you be more at peace with others and live in harmony with your surroundings.
9. You Experience a Oneness With All Life
At the core of everything, all life and energy are one. The energy and breath of life that moves through the body, helping you feel, speak and hear others, is the same spirit that makes the dogs, trees, and the rest of creation come to life.
When going through a spiritual awakening, most people have stated that they feel one with nature and all creation. This is because the experience helps you heal into wholeness.
During your journey, you may feel like you’re waking up from a dream, and everything in your life is becoming more apparent. You will also become more self-conscious and start feeling knowingness.
This revelation opens your eyes to the sacredness and blessings of all life. You will also be more appreciative of having the gift of life and feeling part of something bigger than yourself. Without spiritual awakening, you may not experience this new appreciation of life, and all that surrounds you.
You will notice that in the past, all you strived to achieve never satisfied you. No matter how successful you became, it was never enough. If your goal was getting one million dollars, once you achieved it, you set your eyes to the next million once you achieved it.
This is the cycle of life for people who haven’t experienced or embraced their spiritual awakening journey. However, identifying with your inner self will help you discover who you truly are and how your life is interconnected with all life on earth.
