The Universe Has A Funny Way Of Letting You Know You’re Off Track — 3 Signs To Watch For
When life starts throwing weird coincidences, it's not random.

Every form of matter, including your body, has a vibrational frequency. Emotions are energy in motion, meaning that they create energetic frequencies, and we radiate those frequencies, good or bad.
When you are in vibrational alignment, you are exuding the energy you want to attract. You are operating at a high frequency and can attract things like love, abundance, and peace. If you find yourself out of vibrational alignment, your low frequency is a mismatch for the high-frequency things you want to attract. TikToker Vickita Trivedi posted a video discussing the signs you are out of alignment, and the three biggest indicators the universe will send you.
The universe has a funny way of letting you know you’re off track — here are three signs to watch for:
1. You're always getting into arguments
According to Trivedi, when you are out of alignment, “You will feel like you are constantly at war with others and that you just want to pick them apart and be extremely critical.” When you are not happy internally, your energy spills out and onto everyone you come into contact with. You might be stuck in a state of "misery loves company" and want those around you to feel your wrath. You may feel anxious and don’t know what to do about it.
2. You keep running into roadblocks

When you’re out of vibrational alignment, things tend not to go as planned. This could be dates, trips, projects, or anything that just keeps falling through. It can feel as if there is something in the way of what you hope to achieve — and there is. That something is you. Once you get into alignment, your desires will start to fall into place.
Psychotherapist Nancy Carbone explained that, "when you find your life purpose, you can find fulfillment within yourself, regain strength, and gain clarity and self-direction. Most importantly, you can take back control over yourself, not let the internal critic take control of you, and stop sabotaging yourself. You can avoid focusing on the things that matter to you if they cause you to feel bad about yourself. "
3. You have a recurrence of negative emotions
The last sign from the universe Trivedi gives is that you are experiencing the recurrence of uncomfortable or negative emotions. Some of the examples she provides are “laziness, agitation, fear, and anxiety.” Trivedi goes on to explain that you are radiating these emotions and, in return, everyone around you is sending the same vibes back to you. What you put out into the world always returns to you, so that makes perfect sense.
Additional signs you’re out of alignment
There are other indications that you are out of vibrational alignment with the universe. Your mind and body are connected, so aches and pains could be an indication that you are not in alignment with your higher self.
- There may be times when you simply don’t feel good and can’t put your finger on it. It may be time to discover your true purpose and find happiness.
- It is not uncommon to drink, eat, or consume things that are unhealthy for you when you are out of alignment with the universe.
- The desire to feel good and escape problems causes you to do things that will cover them up, albeit temporarily.
- After the effects of the food or alcohol wear off, you are right back to where you started.
- Insomnia is a clear indicator that something is off in your life. Perhaps you’re wracking your brain for solutions to a problem, or are too stressed out to sleep. Rest and rejuvenation are critical to keeping your alignment intact.
How to get back into vibrational alignment
Awareness is the first step in getting back into vibrational alignment. Understanding your emotions, behaviors, and the underlying cause will go a long way in getting back on track. Journaling during your experience is helpful. Jotting down all things you went through can be useful in recognizing misalignments before they get out of hand.
Lastly, you have to take action to fix the problem. If you're lying awake at night, look into ways to get some rest. If you’re dealing with anxiety and stress, see a therapist for guidance on how to overcome it. Mindfulness about where you are in the present moment, and what you need to do to right your mental and emotional ship, is the most effective way of getting yourself back into alignment with the universe.
