Hashem communicates with us in a variety of ways. One is through signs; unlikely occurrences that we can notice if we are open and aware. People who are super-connected to Hashem through their absorbtion in Torah and their lives of yirat shamayim, emunah and bitachon, can set these signs up to guide their choices and decisions in moments of dilemma. But how can we know when these signs are authentic and when they are superstitious – the practice of which is a Torah prohibition of darchei ha’emmori?
