I love these synchronicities, blue, and I do not think they are just coincidences. I remember a time when I was seriously questioning the survival of a close friend of mine after death, 14 years ago, when, after several weeks of nightmares, I had a very vivid dream of this friend having sent lots and lots of letters to me, in the meantime, and these letters were still all sealed. After that dream, things started to ease a bit and I started hearing from my friend again in dreams and OBEs. The postman and mail delivery in general have always played a key role in my life, as they are obviously a strong metaphor for after death communication, or subtle communication among the living too.

As I walked to the other end of the house I walked through what smelled like Noxema and Ivory soap. That was her aroma. I walked back and forth through the same area several times, and yes, it remained for a while. I can't explain that. And, I won't even try. But, it did give me a sense of her warmth and kindness, as if she was there. I liked that.
Thanks for sharing, ano1. I hardly ever have experiences involving fragrances but I know many do, and they report the same feeling of warmth and reassurance
