Teresa from Lake Havasu, AZ, asked:
Hello Julie,
I have been experiencing finding coins almost every day, sometimes more than ten times a day.
At this point, it happens so frequently, I just expect the coins to show up.
The coins can be pennies, nickels, dimes, or quarters, and show the year my loved ones’ or my husband’s loved ones’ died.
I call out and ask what they’re trying to tell us. Please tell me what you think.
Thanks,
Teresa
Hi Teresa,
Your loved ones are letting you know several things:
– They’re always around you.
– The death year shown is to celebrate their “Heavenly” birthdays, i.e., when they transitioned.
– You are attracting abundance.
Furthermore, in many cultures, coins have historically been a part of burial practices.
In Greek mythology, coins were needed to get to the afterlife so in ancient Greece, coins would be placed in the mouth or eyes of the deceased and provide money for their journey.
In Cambodia, a silver or gold coin was placed in the mouth of the deceased before cremation. This was considered the only wealth the dead could take to the afterlife.
Another burial tradition in many cultures is the practice of putting coins on graves. When visiting Veteran cemeteries in the United States, you may see coins on headstones.
There is a meaning associated with each coin. A penny means someone has visited the grave. A nickel signifies the visitor served with the deceased service member at boot camp. A dime means the visitor and deceased service member served together at some point and a quarter is left by someone who was physically with the service member when he or she died.
Coins are left on graves in other cultures too. Throughout Latin America, people leave coins on the graves of their loved ones. This happens predominantly in areas where wealth isn’t plentiful. Leaving a few coins on a grave is a way to show respect without having to find the money for a bouquet of flowers.
I hope you continue to enjoy these amazing signs from your deceased loved ones.
