To those who have had experienced a miracle or an “act of god,” what did that feel like? What made you immediately know that it was an other worldly power that took hold of you or your situation? How do you know it wasn’t a fluke versus divine intervention?

I once spent a full day experiencing the most profound synchronicities in nature and timing of all things. I had a strange out of body experience that felt like a psychological ego death. Every place I went to, like walking into a store, the music on the store radio was about angels. The one song that filled my cab journey, about angels. Everything was about angels and master numbers. This was after a week of very deep meditation whilst smoking hash on and off. When I wasn't meditating I was studying numerology and noticed everything happening in threes. I had managed to detach my awareness from my own thinking and thus I was no longer a slave to my thoughts. This all stopped when I began to read into things and I developed a deep anxiety after attaching things to things and feeling like I was saying omens. I literally thought I was going to die because the synchronicities of things were so strange. I thought my spiritual awakening was a message or sign that I was becoming ill or that my life end was near. I then realised it was just a purging of my own ego and I literally felt my emotional body come alight and every bit of emotional tension and anxiety release itself from different areas of my body. My mind opened to whole new concepts and I was no longer a selfish person. The love I felt for people was extraordinary and I had a yearning to help people. It was like I had found my soul mission after 7 years of dark disconnecting depression. I grew in self confidence and just accepted myself for who I am. I would open my curtains on a morning and just began to cry with happiness at the beauty of nature. I was able to tap into my higher intuition during meditation and write everything that I needed to fix about myself and things around me. It completely changed my life. I came to the realization that love, gratitude and patience were the key to being in the very moment, right now. I came to realise that I was living so far out of the present moment that I was living in my shadow. Feelings like anxiety and sadness and guilt were driving self-doubt. I just surrendered and let it all go. I literally felt an attunement with the divine, within myself. I was having gut feelings about things so intense that I thought I was dreaming. A few weeks later I met someone who is unlike anyone I've ever met in the Western world. I can't explain how in one comment, but everything I went through was to meet this person. There is Grace and divinity all around you, you just need the pure intent and grace within your own heart to truly notice it.
