There is a lot of wisdom posted here, in addition to what has already been said . . .
Quiet your mind - focus on exactly what it is that you want for a sign, make it (your intent) as clear of a picture or movie as possible (sounds, colors, weather etc.) be happy, fill your heart with love, know that your answer will come quickly (for your greatest good).
Give thanks and be GRATEFUL <--------<<<
[Try this] This is something that I have recently been doing myself to connect, it has been (is) amazing, comforting and several times funny.
Ask your guides, higher~self, GOD to be as clear as possible when you are to receive guidance. Ask that if you have not received the intended message for the Divine to please keep trying until the message is received.
"I ask to receive knowledge on what is the best next step for me to take, I ask for the message to be as crystal clear as possible, so that I may learn & expand my knowledge for the betterment of all". "If I have not received the message, or all of the message in full or incorrectly, to please let me know as clearly as possible".
* The funny part is that you will be very suprized how perfect this works, I asked a question similiar to the one above, and the moment I got back to my computer * There it was *
When you get your message, give thanks & praise again.
*Remember these gifts that we all have are given to us by the divine, Always Pay It Forward
