Can Loved Ones in Spirit hear us when we talk to them?

Typically yes.

If not they’re in your vicinity when you attempt to communicate, a Guardian Angel, Familiar Spirit, or Spirit Guide could pass the message along for you.

If you want them to be with you, simply internally ask for them to be present then internally say to them what you want to share.

When you communicate with the Loved Ones in Spirit or they communicate with you, there are sensations, images, feelings and thoughts you receive in addition to the plain communications you receive that provide you with the indication that this may be what’s happening, versus you just thinking about them, or reminiscing about fond memories.

Because our Loved Ones enter the Angelic Realm when they cross over, communication with them is akin to receiving messages from Angels, or otherwise known as ‘messages from Heaven.’

Your Loved Ones in Heaven can communicate to anyone who is open and who has the faculties, the time, space and mind to receive it.

If it’s a regular spirit that closely linked to you, such as a Spirit Guide or an Angel, the answer yes, they can almost always hear you - they can also respond - because they’re always there.

When a Loved Ones passes on, they typically stay near their loved ones on Earth for quite a while and because this is so, they can tune into what you're thinking and feeling.

Some Loved Ones become Spirit Guides for the living and will hear you communicate with them and take those communications into action.

So to end, yes, they can hear your messages and when you tune in during your meditation and prayer time, your thoughts, emotions and sentiments are conveyed when you want them to be.
