June 15 through June 21, 2026

The Sun will spend its last week in Gemini, heading for the emotional waters of Cancer on Sunday. So we’ll want to focus on seeking new information, expanding our communications, and updating electronics for the next few days. The Moon will drift through Cancer on Monday and Tuesday, calling for patience and flexibility when things don’t go our way. Let’s keep our focus in the moment, and if we run into blocks, turn and find something else to focus on until they clear. A Leo Moon shifts the energy on Wednesday and Thursday, raising our vibrations and moving us forward in powerful ways. With a Virgo Moon closing out the week, we can spend Friday, Saturday, and Sunday tending to detailed projects, restoring order to our homes, and exploring new ways to get organized. Once completed, we’ll be ready to shift gears as the Sun moves into the gentle sign of Cancer on Sunday.

How to Interpret Signs and Symbols from the Universe with a Pendulum, by Lana Gendlin & Karina Muller

(Article originally published in The Llewellyn Journal.)

In the vast tapestry of existence, there is a language beyond words, a communication system as old as time itself. It's the language of the Universe. The Universe is constantly communicating with us, offering insights, miracles, and blessings in the form of signs and symbols.

But what exactly are signs and symbols, and how do they communicate with us? At their core, signs are events or occurrences that point us toward something. They can be subtle or overt, personal or universal, but they all carry significance beyond their immediate appearance. Symbols, on the other hand, are visual or auditory representations that hold deeper meanings.

The Universe communicates with us in myriad ways, offering guidance, wisdom, and insight for those of us who are willing to listen. Here are some examples of signs and symbols of messages from the Universe:

1. Animal Messengers: Many cultures believe that animals serve as messengers from the spiritual realm, offering guidance and protection to those who encounter them. Whether it's the appearance of a majestic eagle soaring overhead or the silent presence of a wise owl in the night, animals can convey profound messages from the Universe.
2. Numbers and Numerology: Numbers carry symbolic significance across many cultures and spiritual traditions. From the ancient wisdom of numerology to the synchronistic appearance of Angel Numbers, which are repeating number sequences (such as 11:11 or 333), numbers are always guiding us on our spiritual path. They often show up to send us a specific message, which always happens in divine time.
3. Dreams and Visions: Dreams have long been regarded as portals to the subconscious. Paying attention to the symbols and themes that arise in our dreams can offer profound insights into our inner world and the guidance of the Universe.
4. Synchronicities: Synchronicities are meaningful coincidences that defy conventional explanation, hinting at the interconnectedness of all things. Whether it's encountering a long-lost friend in a foreign city or stumbling upon a book that holds the answers to your deepest questions, synchronicities remind us that there are no accidents and all is orchestrated by something larger than ourselves.
5. Physical Objects: Oftentimes, our guides and angels place something of significance in our path that ignites awareness. These signs can come in the form of feathers, coins, or anything else that holds value for us. These are signs to pay attention to.
6. Electrical Manipulation: Spirit has a fun way of communicating with us through electricity. If the lights flicker when you're in a particular room in the house, it may be a loved one who has crossed or your spirit guides trying to connect with a message from the other side. Other signs include interference with radios, TVs, phones, appliances, and other electrical devices without explanation or logic.
7. Intuitive Guidance: Our intuition serves as a direct line of communication with the wisdom of the Universe, guiding us along our soul's journey. Whether it's a gut feeling, a sudden knowing, or a flash of insight, learning to trust and follow our intuition can lead us to profound revelations and synchronicities.

These examples merely scratch the surface of the never-ending array of signs and symbols the Universe uses to communicate with us each day. By cultivating awareness, openness, and receptivity to the subtle language of the cosmos, we can deepen our connection to the divine and navigate life's journey with grace, purpose, and wonder.

In our quest for understanding, we often seek tools to help us interpret the signs and symbols that surround us. One such tool that has been utilized for centuries is the pendulum. Whether seeking clarity about personal matters, making decisions, or connecting with higher realms, the pendulum is a powerful guidance assistant in deciphering the subtle language of the Universe. Let's explore how to interpret signs and symbols with the help of this ancient, most powerful tool.

What Is a Pendulum?
Pendulums are weighted tools that work with your energy to access your subconscious mind. They provide answers to your questions quickly and visually by moving in a specific direction for "Yes" and another direction for "No." While traditionally used in dowsing to locate water or minerals, the pendulum is also used to access intuitive guidance and insights. For more information about these amazing tools, please check out our book, Pendulums & Intuition: Practical Advice for Trusting Your Inner Wisdom, which guides you through how to get started with pendulums, how to care for them, and how to apply them to your everyday life.

Establishing a Connection and Calibrating Your Pendulum
Before using the pendulum, it's essential to establish a connection with the tool and set clear intentions for its use. Begin by holding the pendulum in your dominant hand, allowing it to hang freely. Take a few deep breaths to center yourself and focus your intention on receiving clear and accurate guidance.

Once you've established a connection, it's crucial to calibrate the pendulum for your Yes and No responses. Start by asking, "Please show me my Yes movement." Wait until the pendulum starts responding and shows you a movement specific to your personal Yes. Repeat by asking for your No movement. After your Yes and No movements have been established, keep practicing by asking simple Yes or No questions that you already know the answers to. Observe the direction of movement of the pendulum in response to these questions until you are comfortable with how the pendulum moves with your energy for your Yes and No questions.

Interpreting Symbols and Signs With the Help of a Pendulum
When using a pendulum to interpret signs and symbols from the Universe, it's essential to ask questions that are empowering and focused on gaining insights and guidance. Always keep your questions focused on yourself and for the highest good of all. Here are some examples of questions you can ask:

• Is this particular sign I encountered significant for me at this moment? If you get a Yes answer from your pendulum, keep asking deeper questions to interpret the significance of this message.
• Is the Universe trying to communicate with me through the symbol I observed in my dream? If you get a Yes, dive deeper to interpret the symbology with the help of your pendulum. You can also ask if it is optimal for you to take action based on the symbol you received.
• Is this sign I witnessed a confirmation that I am on the right path?
• Is it optimal for me to seek further guidance or insight regarding the symbol I noticed recently?
• Is the sign I came across today a message from my spirit guides and my higher self?
• Is there a specific lesson I should glean from the symbol I saw today? If you get a yes, again, keep asking more questions to determine what it is.
• Is it accurate to interpret the sign as a message of encouragement?
• Is the symbol I encountered a reminder to trust in the divine timing of my life's journey? Is it for my highest good to explore the deeper meaning behind the symbol I encountered further?
• Are the light flickers a sign from a departed loved one with a message for me?

Remember to phrase your questions clearly and succinctly, allowing the pendulum to respond with a simple Yes or No motion. Trust your intuition and remain open to the guidance and insights that come through the pendulum's responses. Keep a journal to record your experiences and insights, allowing for reflection and deeper exploration over time.

Maintaining Reverence and Respect
While the pendulum can be a valuable tool for accessing intuitive guidance, it's essential to approach its use with reverence and respect. Treat the pendulum as a sacred instrument, honoring its power and the wisdom it facilitates. Remember that you are co-creating with the universe, and the insights you receive are a reflection of your connection to the divine.

In our journey through life, we are constantly being gifted signs and symbols from the Universe, guiding us along our path and offering insights into the mysteries of existence. With the help of the pendulum, we can access this wisdom more readily, tapping into our intuitive knowing and deepening our connection to the Universe. By cultivating trust, openness, and reverence, we can interpret Universal signs and symbols with clarity and grace, navigating life's journey with wisdom and insight.

With Gratitude,

Last night, I dreamed that I was in a hotel lobby, eating the most wonderful desserts with a beautiful younger woman. We were discussing marriage and children and all kinds of important life issues while holding, touching and kissing each other. She was very excited and I felt very loved by this person. I recognized that I don't at present know her, and when I asked her how I could get in touch with her, she said she loved the city of Des Moines, Washington, and I would have to find her there. I can see her appearance, mannerisms and personality clearly in my mind. I am hoping this dream is prophetic, for I have never heard of Des Moines, Washington, before, but it does seem to exist. I also keep having dreams with the number 111 in them. What should I do next? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Most of the time the people, places and things we see in our dreams represent other things in waking reality. A rock can represent a mother, and a dog can represent a boyfriend. Those dreams aren't very difficult to interpret, even for a beginner. The rock is someone who is inflexible, and the dog, well - a dog is always some kind of dog, including the two-footed kind. Most of the time, things in dreams are symbolic of something else, though straightforward prophetic dreams are of course also possible.

So now you have the awesome possibility that the woman in your dream might represent the woman OF your dreams. Any way you interpret it, in those dreams you are training for her arrival and some other new things that are to come into your life.

The dream shows you in a loving, happy relationship with someone who has all the traits you've ever wanted in a partner. In the dream, she feels the same way about you. What could be more ideal that your relationship showing up in real life? There are lots of clues to help you make it happen.

I am SURE that this woman exists for you, even if she doesn't look exactly like the woman you're dreaming of now. She may be a little older, a little plumper, and a whole lot more interesting that your dream girl, but you can find her.

The internet is a wonderful thing! If she whispered her name, try doing a people search in Des Moines, Washington. You can do this even if you just have a feeling you know her first name. That's a long shot but worth a try.

If you're single, my best advice is to enroll in one of the national match services to find the girl of your dreams. You have to expect to go through lots of pictures and spend a lot of time in chat rooms to find her, but you've been given a target date via your recurring dreams about the number 111.

Michael, if I were you and had a dream that revealed this much to me, I would do my best to find this person within that time period. You have specific information to start searching with. Good luck!

Our dreams and metaphysical experiences can lead us on wonderful paths to fulfill our destinies if we will follow their lead. Sometimes the information we receive doesn't seem to make sense, and often the results aren't what our conscious minds are expecting. Nevertheless, I always encourage people to listen to their hearts, instincts and spiritual guidance.

Many times our conscious minds and practical thinking can get in the way, and it is easy to ignore spiritual messages, particularly if they come in the form of dreams. It has been my experience that if something or someone is in your destiny, the messages will continue to repeat themselves, often getting stronger with each delivery.

Your dream is prophetic in that it evoked strong feelings and did indeed offer you a clue for finding this woman. Because you don't know her name, you will need to visit this city and see if fate will intervene and cross your paths. I recommend scheduling a trip to this place.

You may want to consult a psychic or astrologer for the best time to go. You did not include your birth date in your letter, but it could play an important role in determining the best time to go as well as where to hang out in the city to run across her.

Investigate the personal ad sites from that area, as you might recognize her from a personal ad if she has one listed. You may also want to do a little internet research to see if you can spot pictures of the restaurant from your dream. This may also lead to more clues about where you can find her.

You mention having dreams with the number 111 in them, but not necessarily in the dream you had about the woman. This might indicate a time frame for meeting. It could represent January 11, or November 1. You may also discover when making travel arrangements that you end up on flight 111 or something similar. This number could also be the address of the restaurant or her home. Continue to watch for this number both when awake and dreaming to gain more clues for your quest.

Even if you visit Des Moines, Washington, and do not run across this particular woman from your dream, there could be more important reasons for the trip. You also could meet her on a plane or have other amazing experiences that would never have come your way had you not attempted to locate her.

Good luck, Michael. I hope you will follow your dreams, and in doing so, find your dream girl!

Many times in life we hear, "You will always have what you NEED, but not necessarily what you WANT." Your spirit must have needed to experience the feeling of leaving your human body, and the suggestion in the next chapter of Sylvia Brown's book was all it took to get you there.

Even though you hadn't read it yet, your SOUL recognized the title of that chapter as something it had been seeking, and your soul, knowing that you had that reference to read after your experience, got with it and out you went!

While I don't usually recommend her books, Sylvia Brown has a wide reaching and powerful effect on lots of people. A Gemini like you would be able to relate easily to her writing and put it to good use. Synchronicity - you gotta love it!

I like your description of "getting caught." That's exactly what it feels like, isn't it? One minute you're free and hovering above the room, and the next minute, ZAP! back down into your corporeal form you go!

As a little kid, I loved that "feeling of return." With practice, most of the time we can control that event, but sometimes, when our physical ears hear a distracting noise or something else occurs to knock us back into reality, back we go. With practice you will be able to control your return better.

I find it interesting that you were visiting your mother-in-law and not someone in your own genetic family. Evidently, you and your husband got married for reasons that are even deeper than love. His family's interest in "psychic stuff" will nurture your children in such matters and help them to grow into their own abilities.

You'll never have to be concerned that when your daughter visits them, she'll be discouraged from exploring her own psychic life and power. My parents encouraged me to develop my psychic senses in a time when it wasn't nice to even discuss such things in public. Heck, it's STILL not considered a great topic at the dinner table in some families!

Your kids will get to talk about it ALL and ask questions and read and study. This is going to give them such an edge in life! Talk with your husband about how you want to present this to your kiddos, so that you are united in your approach and ready to tell them their experiences are all natural and okay.

A word or two of warning: Geminis often have difficulty staying grounded in REAL LIFE. Don't get so strung out on your ASTRAL life that you neglect what you're doing here on Earth.

You are at the beginning of a long journey to learn where your power really lies. Try to be patient with this process and take your time.
