How to Know When the Universe Is Nudging You to Write Your Book

First off, If you are looking for signs that you should write your book, this is that sign.

But seriously, have you felt the quiet whisper in your heart urging you to share your story? Maybe it shows up as a persistent thoughts, a dream, a phrase someone casually says, or a repeated sign you can’t ignore. These nudges aren’t coincidences—they’re divine invitations. If you've had a near-death experience (NDE), a spiritually transformative experience (STE), or a deep spiritual awakening, the Universe may be calling you to write your book.

Your Story Carries Light

Stories are not just words—they are vessels of healing, awakening, and remembrance. Your journey, your pain, your transformation... they matter. When you put your story into words, you create a ripple effect that reaches far beyond what you can see. For someone out there, your story might be the turning point in their spiritual path. You just never know how this small service to others will impact humanity down the road.

Especially if you've experienced something beyond the veil—like an NDE or an encounter with divine intelligence—sharing your truth becomes a sacred responsibility. The Universe often chooses messengers through lived experience. And if you're reading this, there's a good chance you're one of them.

When the Signs Started for Me

I remember when the signs first started showing up for me. I had dreams, synchronicities, and people around me constantly saying things like, “You should write a book, I had a dream that you wrote a book” - multiple of my psychic friends told me they had messages for me about writing a book - At first, I brushed it off. I told myself it wasn’t the right time, or that I wasn’t ready. But the Universe has a way of being persistent.

Eventually, my guides—and life itself—pulled the rug out from under me. Everything I thought I could rely on went poof. The message was no longer subtle. I could no longer ignore the call. Writing wasn’t just an option anymore—it was a spiritual assignment. It was my purpose. I had to honor the calling. And once I said yes, the support started flooding in.

Signs from the Universe That It's Time to Write

So how do you know when the Universe is trying to get your attention? Here are some unmistakable signs:

Repeating Messages or Symbols

You keep seeing or hearing messages about writing. Maybe someone tells you, "You should write a book," or you randomly come across writing prompts, author interviews, or publishing posts again and again. These repetitions are like cosmic breadcrumbs guiding you to your purpose.

Divine Timing & Synchronicity

Suddenly, opportunities align perfectly. You meet a writing coach, discover a spiritual publishing company, or find yourself surrounded by authors. The right people show up at just the right time—not by accident, but by design and perfect orchestration. Trust it.

Inner Knowing That Won’t Go Away

There’s a deep, almost unexplainable knowing inside you that you’re meant to share what you’ve been through. The pull to write doesn’t go away, even if you try to silence it. It resurfaces in stillness, in dreams, in meditation.

Emotional Activation

You feel deeply emotional—even tearful—when you imagine telling your story. That’s your soul speaking. Pay attention to what makes your heart swell. Having a deep emotional resonance with writing and sharing your story is more important than you may understand now.

Guidance in Meditation, Dreams, or Prayer

Perhaps you’ve been told during a meditation or spiritual encounter that it’s time to share your voice. Divine guidance comes in many forms—when you're open, you’ll hear it clearly.

Resistance Is Also a Sign

Ironically, fear is often the loudest confirmation that your story matters. The voice that says, "Who am I to write this?" is the ego sensing a transformation. Resistance shows up when you're on the brink of something important. Don't let it win. Your courage to write is part of your healing—and someone else's.

What to Do When You Know It’s Time

You don’t have to write a full manuscript overnight. Begin with baby steps:

Start journaling your memories and feelings.

Record voice notes when insights or memories arise.

Create a sacred writing space that supports your spiritual connection.

Set the intention that your book will be a blessing—for you and for those who read it.

Writing is a spiritual practice. Allow your soul to speak through you and your words.

You’re Not Meant to Do It Alone

So many spiritual messengers stop themselves from writing because they don’t know where to begin, or they fear doing it alone. But you're not alone. At the Near-Death Institute (NDI), we specialize in helping people like you write and publish spiritually transformative books.

Whether you’ve had an NDE, an STE, or another profound spiritual awakening, your story can be a beacon for others. NDI offers support from idea to publication, with compassion, clarity, and deep respect for your soul’s journey.

Let the Universe Work Through You

If you’ve felt the nudge, this is your confirmation: it’s time.

You are the one someone is waiting for.

Your story is sacred.

Your voice is needed.

And the world is ready to hear it.
