Signs, Synchronicities, and the Magic of Paying Attention

Hola amigos del Internet!
Happy first Monday of the month!

Wow…

Did A LOT happened for you too this beginning of 2025?
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so I did it all.

The other day hubby and I stepped outside and were greeted by an incredible series of sights: a magnificent eagle sitting on the field, a pristine crow hanging out beside it, three gorgeous hawks observing peacefully, two baby deer nibbling on the grass, and a blue heron standing gracefully in a still, calm moment. As if that wasn’t enough, we saw a massive rainbow stretched across the sky, and later, snow —gentle, quiet, and full of wonder.

Snow is like confetti for my heart.

I couldn’t help but feel like nature was speaking to us, offering reassurance that everything is unfolding as it should. That we are supported. That magic is real.

Life is always speaking to us. Through little symbols, unexpected encounters, the lyrics of a song playing at just the right moment, or even a stranger saying something we needed to hear. But to notice them, we have to be paying attention.

I think about how this relates to art. When I paint, there’s a moment when something unexpected appears—a color blending in a way I didn’t plan, a shape emerging that wasn’t in my mind before. I can either dismiss it as an accident or see it as an invitation. Maybe life is like that too—full of invitations, guiding us if we’re willing to see.

So this week, I invite you to slow down and pay attention. Look for the small signs, those little winks from the universe. Maybe you’ll see a bird that reminds you of a loved one, a book that falls off a shelf at the perfect time, or a kind word from a stranger that shifts your perspective.

Magic is everywhere when we choose to see it. 💫

Have you ever experienced a moment of synchronicity? I’d love to hear about it! Drop a comment or send me a message.

Love & Sparkles,

  1. To drink: Hubby and I were craving green juice but didn’t have much time to make it, so we found this one, and we love it! It tastes so fresh! And the ingredients list is just organic fruits and veggies. Love it.

  2. To try: Talking about signs and magic—try taking random pictures throughout your day. Later, go through them and see what hidden details emerge. Who knows? You might find a magic sign, a much-needed answer, a random laugh, or even a masterpiece.

  3. To notice: I found a tiny tree sprouting from a crack in the pavement, standing tall and determined despite its surroundings. It felt like a little reminder that resilience is everywhere—even in the most unexpected places.
