The holidays can bring out a mix of emotions. You may feel joy, excitement, nostalgia, and sometimes a deep ache for the people you wish were still here with you. If you have ever felt an extra sense of presence during this time of year, you are not imagining it. Spirit truly draws close during the holiday season, and there is a very real reason why.
Your Heart Is More Open During the Holidays
December is a month filled with memories. You are reminded of family traditions, special meals, shared laughter, and the small moments that once filled your home. Your heart is naturally more reflective and more open, and that emotional openness makes it easier for Heaven to reach you.
Spirit is attracted to love. During the holidays, that love is everywhere. It fills your home, your gatherings, and even your quiet moments alone. This is why you may feel your loved ones more strongly at this time of year.
Spirit Knows This Time Can Be Emotional
Loved ones in Heaven understand how the holidays can stir up sadness and longing. They step closer to support you and help you feel comforted. That sudden warmth in your chest or the wave of emotion that comes out of nowhere is often your loved one letting you know they are near.
They want you to remember that they have never missed a holiday with you. They simply join you from a new place.
Memories Create a Bridge Between You and Heaven
When you remember your loved one, you create a connection. Spirit uses those memories to draw near. You might think of them while putting up decorations or baking their favorite dessert, and suddenly you feel a familiar presence. That is not just nostalgia. That is them.
Spirit loves to join you during the traditions you once shared because those moments remind you that love is eternal.
Signs Are Stronger During This Season
Because the energy of love and togetherness is so strong in December, signs from Spirit often come through more clearly. You may notice songs, lights flickering, scents that remind you of someone, or dreams that feel incredibly real. Each one is a message of comfort and connection.
Spirit uses the holidays as an opportunity to remind you that there is no distance in love. Not even Heaven can separate you from the people who have shaped your life.
A Holiday Message From Your Loved Ones
If you feel them around you this season, trust it. Spirit is closer than you think. When you feel that pull on your heart, that sudden memory, or that sense of peace that appears out of nowhere, pause and acknowledge it.
Your loved ones are saying,
“I am here. I love you. I will always be part of your holidays.”
With peace from the other side,
Matt
