I spiritually awakened many moons ago, and I had my fair share of bizarre spiritual awakening signs while doing so! I’ve found that now that I’ve gone through the initial spiritual awakening, things have plateaued and calmed down.
But, during the whole first year that I was awakening, I thought I was going completely crazy! I’ve talked to many people experiencing these same signs of awakening in 2026. These spiritual awakening signs are totally bizarre and probably some of the more extreme signs that you are awakening.
If you’ve read my book, My Bizarre Spiritual Awakening: How I Overcame Grief & Addiction to Spiritually Awaken & Create My Own Reality!, you know my story. In a nutshell, my fiancé died when he was quite young, of a very painful aggressive cancer.
During this process, I began using substances to numb my feelings that were too painful to feel. Grief, loss, sadness, depression, and helplessness all consumed me as I struggled to “cope” with what was happening to my first love.
I believe I experienced the most extreme spiritual awakening signs because I was an extreme case. I needed something to get my attention fast, or I probably wouldn’t be alive and writing this now.
I was buried so far down in all the worst parts that the third dimension has to offer, that I couldn’t see my way out. I needed the Universe to “severely shake me to awake me”. And, if the awakening signs hadn’t been completely bonkers, I don’t think I’d have paid much attention.
WHAT CAUSES A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING?
Table of Contents
Many times, spiritual awakening’s are caused by your need for extreme changes to be made in your life. You may begin changing, but need extra guidance, help and support to make necessary habit changes.
Change can be hard and scary, and this is where Divine guidance is so crucial to supporting you in your intention for living a healthier, happier life.
Spiritual awakening’s can begin simply by your asking for Divine assistance from the spiritual realms, or they can begin when you quit strong addictive substances, such as alcohol or opiates.
HOW LONG DOES A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING LAST?
As with everything in life, spiritual awakening times vary depending on the person awakening. Your awakening may take months or a few years. If you need a LOT of Divine assistance, then your awakening will likely take longer.
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING?
There are many common symptoms associated with spiritual awakening, also known as Ascension Symptoms. These typically include headaches, fatigue, and ringing in the ears.
Most people who are spiritually awakening also experience more awareness within their physical bodies. You taste, touch, smell and feel things as if it’s your first time.
An extreme sense of purpose also usually accompanies a spiritual awakening. You may feel a sudden need to help others, animals or the environment without knowing why.
You may also crave fresher, more vibrant foods, full of color and nutrients. As well as wanting to spend lots of time outdoors and in nature.
WHY IS SPIRITUAL AWAKENING SO PAINFUL?
Light codes to ascend to a fifth-dimensional reality are entering our dense third-dimensional minds and bodies. This causes huge amounts of emotion and pain to be released, that we must process, deal with and let go of.
For many, the emotional turmoil experienced during awakening and ascension is more difficult to deal with than the physical symptoms. (Although those can really suck too! Especially the fatigue!)
We buried those emotions from our past for a reason, they were too painful to look at. We thought we moved on, when in reality we simply hid the pain in a deep dark box and never looked at it again.
We never learned how to process, learn from and grow from the pain. We never allowed ourselves to feel, cry about, look at, and learn from painful experiences.
So, we’ve carried it (usually in our root chakras). This makes the spiritual awakening process a necessary part of our ascension to a higher, lighter, faster way of being.
You CAN NOT take your baggage with you to the fifth dimension. It has to come out, be looked at, felt, and healed in order for you to move on.
This is what makes the spiritual awakening process so painful – All of your pain and denseness, being released at once.
HOW CAN I SPEED UP MY SPIRITUAL AWAKENING?
In order to speed up your spiritual awakening, you have to do the work. You have to heal your mind, body, Soul, inner child and spirit – to move on from the awakening process.
This takes LOTS of self-care, self-love, motivation, determination, and the desire to want to learn what you need to learn, so that you can hold yourself in a fifth dimensional perspective.
Things like drama, gossip, addiction, over-eating, greed, shame, doubt and fear will make your spiritual awakening take much longer.
It is crucial that you learn mindfulness meditation, eat lots of healthy high vibration foods, heal from past trauma, and go in nature often to speed up your spiritual awakening.

12 BIZARRE SPIRITUAL AWAKENING SIGNS
1- YOU MAY BEGIN TO HEAR VOICES AS YOU’RE SPIRITUALLY AWAKENING
I hadn’t heard much of anything for a long time, including my own intuition. I drank too much, took way too many prescription drugs, and never ate High Vibration Healthy Foods. I was mad at everyone and everything, including God, or Source, or the Universe or whatever you want to call “All That Is”.
I decided I couldn’t live the way I was living any longer and asked the Universe for help. And man, did the Spiritual Realms help! A lot!
It was almost overwhelming. As I got sober, I started hearing pieces of my own broken psyche, or what I lovingly refer to as my “Inner Dick (I write more about it in this post)”, yelling at me. I also started hearing loving helpful guidance from various Spirit Guides.
Also known as clairaudience (the psychic ability to hear Spiritual Realms), I had never experienced this before in my life. It was extremely confusing to wade through the noise of technology stuck in my brain, my own thoughts, my inner critic, and my spirit guides at first.
But, little by little through a lot of Mindfulness Meditation (You can read about the Mind-Blowing Benefits of Mindfulness Meditation here!), I figured out that the loving guidance came from guides as answers to my questions and the “excessive noise” was from me and technology.
I kept thinking I was “crazy and watched”, and a loving voice would replace my words with “guided and inspired”.
2- SEEING ORBS OF LIGHT IS PRETTY COMMON DURING A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING
While you are spiritually awakening, you may begin to see fast moving orbs of light. Usually out of the corner of your eye.
While I was awakening, I saw a lot of orbs, usually darting from one corner of the room to the other. They’d disappear out the window or out a corner of the room into the wall.
Many guides, angels, and Beings of Light come to assist you while you are awakening. They are made of lighter, faster vibrations than us, and can move very swiftly.
I rarely see orbs anymore, but know my guides or angels are there when I ask for assistance.
3- FEELING A LOVING TOUCH FROM A SPIRIT GUIDE ON THE SHOULDER OR HAND
You may also sometimes feel the energy of a spiritual guide or angel who has come to help with your awakening touch you. I would most often feel the energy as a gentle touch on my hand or shoulder to let me know that I was not alone.
The gentle touch was always peaceful, loving, and calmed me down, so I welcomed their energy and support.
4- HEARING LOVING KNOCKING ON WALLS TO AWAKEN YOU
The spirit world can communicate with us through knocks or taps on the walls as well. I would often hear a knock or tap on the wall right after I would have an important thought or epiphany as my next steps towards healing and rebuilding my life.
These loving knocks helped me take notice of the fleeting thought since I was far from being fully mindful yet! (My favorite Mindfulness Meditation Ancient Technique!)

5- RECEIVING AWAKENING PHONE CALLS BETWEEN 2AM – 4AM WHEN NO ONE IS THERE
Often called “The Witching Hour”, 2 am – 4 am is an important time for receiving Divine Guidance and support!
But, if you are sent a message from Spirit at 3 am, and stay asleep, then you probably won’t remember that dream or important message.
That’s when I started to receive actual phone calls. My phone would ring from an all zeros number and wake me up! No one was ever on the other end of the line. I’d answer and just hear static.
That’s when I started paying close attention to the dream I was having just before I received the call. I’d write down whatever impressions, angel numbers, or animals I’d seen in a Dream Journal to help me keep track!
Sometimes I’d see angel numbers or animal totems that I could easily look up upon waking. Other times, I’d wake up after actually communicating with a Spirit Guide or Archangel!
If I hadn’t received the phone calls, I never would’ve woke up to remember these beautiful messages!
