The physical human body communicates things about a person's internal and external world. While a burning ear could be a sign for medical attention – like an ear infection, a sunburn, or allergies – there are surprising spiritual meanings that could be the reason for these symptoms.

The Ancient Romans were firm believers that the body can predict the future. The idea that physical sensations are messages from a higher power has passed the test of time between centuries and cultures and is still relevant today. If you have experienced the feeling of a burning ear, here’s what the universe might be trying to say.

Someone Is Talking About You

Like an eye twitch, a burning ear is a standard indicator that someone, somewhere, is talking behind your back. The physical symptom won't let us hear what this person is saying but based on how hot and red your ear is, you can estimate the intensity of the topic and emotions involved.

Whether the conversation is positive or negative can be guessed based on which side of your head is burning. If the feeling is in your right ear, you’re in luck. Someone has really been speaking highly of you! If your left ear is burning, there’s a good chance you’ve ticked someone off.

Love Is In The Ear

Love is likely the reason for a burning ear, especially if it is on your right side. Your ear could tell you that someone you love is physically close by or that your feelings are intensifying emotionally. If you have been crushing on someone new, or your relationship has been getting more serious, your body could be confirming that you or your person are in love.

The burning sensation could be an expression of blushing and flirting. Or, your body could be telling you that you have or will soon find your soulmate. If you are currently in the mood for love, a burning ear tells you to prepare for an exciting date or romantic proposal!

If you believe in fortune and luck, your burning ears can be a great source of warning. A burning left ear at bedtime signals good luck to come within the week – a great sign to play the lottery or take a long-awaited chance!

A hot ear could also symbolize upcoming news. If you're waiting to hear information about a career change, a family matter or a question asked, your body could predict the response. If the feeling is in your right ear, you will be receiving good news, and if it’s coming from the left ear, prepare for the worst.

There are many signs that a higher power is present in your life, and a burning or tingling ear is one of them. Spirit Guides, Guardian Angels, or relatives that have crossed over often try to send messages to souls on earth. If you experience a burning ear during meditation or if you've asked the universe for a sign, there’s a good chance you’re communicating with a divine source.

It’s hard to know what a feeling is trying to say. A Spirit Guide lets you know that you are being watched over and protected in most cases. It can be a positive reminder that you’re not alone and that all things are divinely interconnected.

Ears are our tools for hearing sounds, but they can also be a spiritual tool that hint at what we should be listening for. If your ear is burning, it could be because you are stressed or overworked. A spiritual sense might be sending you a signal to relax your brain.

While our ears can be a spiritual reminder to listen to ourselves, they could also be reminding us to listen to others. A burning ear could signify that we need to get better at understanding others, learning from others, and letting people into our lives in a deeper and more meaningful way.
