Hours After Queen Elizabeth Passed, British Skies Were Full Of Rainbows And Clouds Resembling The Queen
“We should take comfort that while we may have more still to endure, better days will return. We will be with our friends again; we will be with our families again; we will meet again.” These were words uttered by Queen Elizabeth II in 2020, words meant to inspire a nation in need of reassurance, a nation in need of hope.
And now, as the world wakes without her, it is difficult to know what lies ahead. The Queen was and will continue to be an inspiration and a role model for generations to come, the light in the shadows leading her family members in the path of righteousness, if they only wish to follow it.
As she said her goodbyes, she seemed to whisper one lasting wish to the famously grim weather the Brits oh so love to hate, and send one final message with its help—she’d safely arrived in Heaven. From double rainbows that illuminated the gray sky, to cloud formations resembling the Queen herself, she left one last message of hope to all she reigned over.

The news of Queen Elizabeth’s passing hit unexpectedly. I think many of us, having the Queen reigning throughout our lives, somehow thought she’d stay forever. That in some mysterious way, she’d continue to look after Britain and the rest of her fans. But it seems we are all human and when our time runs out, there’s no fighting it. September 8, 2022, will etch itself into the minds of many as the day the Queen took her final breath.
Queen Elizabeth will go down in history as Britain’s longest-reigning monarch to date. For just over 70 years, she’d selflessly and wholeheartedly given herself to her role as ruler, witnessing the multiple changes the world went through. “I declare before you all that my whole life whether it be long or short shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great imperial family to which we all belong,” she said in April 1947.

When Brits heard about her failing health and family rushing in to see her in Balmoral, they were hoping for the best. But sadly, good news was not to come.
Soon after the flags began lowering in Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle in the Queen’s honor, the people gathered to show their support noticed how the weather shifted and multiple other curious occurrences.

One woman, named Leanne Bethell, shared an image of a cloud formation resembling Queen Elizabeth floating over the English town of Telford, captured just an hour after the monarch passed away. She believed the similarity was uncanny, looking just like the silhouette of the Queen in her signature hat.
“Driving home and Lacey starts shouting ‘OMG!’ I panicked. Then she pointed this image out in the clouds,” Leanne said on Facebook. While some agreed to see the similarities, others believed it to be far-fetched. “My girly Liz always watching over us,” wrote one. “You only see it if you look for it. Maybe it is a sign or maybe we are just looking for a sign from above, who really knows,” said another. But we can all agree with this person’s view: “All I do know is this lady devoted her life to us so with the utmost respect. R.I.P. Queen Elizabeth II.”
Multiple rainbows appeared over the UK as well, the two most noteworthy being the double rainbow near Buckingham Palace and one at Windsor Castle

In addition to the uncanny clouds, rainbows started appearing all over the UK shortly after the announcement of the Queen’s passing. A double rainbow appeared over Buckingham Palace alongside another one at Windsor Castle, with many saying it was the Queen’s way of sending them a sign and uttering her last farewell.
“That is Her Majesty The Queen going to The Rainbow Bridge to collect all her beloved Corgis that had passed in her lifetime,” one person wrote

One person said: “A rainbow breaks out, as the Union Jack is lowered to half-mast at Windsor tonight. A remarkable image. Farewell, Ma’am.” Another wrote: “That is Her Majesty The Queen going to The Rainbow Bridge to collect all her beloved Corgis that had passed in her lifetime.”
“She knew they were all waiting for her there and she wanted everyone who has ever grieved the passing of their furbabies, that The Rainbow Bridge is real.” Regardless of whether you believe in superstitions or not, it is uncanny how it all happened around the same time.

So, what’s to come next for the monarchy? Britain and her Commonwealth realms will now enter into a ten-day period of mourning. The Queen’s coffin will be moved to London on the royal train before she lies in state in Westminster Hall in the Houses of Parliament for four days, where people will be able to pay their respects.
The state funeral is expected to take place at Westminster Abbey in London on Monday, September 19, which will be attended by her family as well as 2,000 heads of state, prime ministers and presidents, European royals and key figures from around the globe.

The Queen’s eldest son Charles, who will reign as King Charles III, said: “The death of my beloved mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family. We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished sovereign and a much-loved mother.”
“I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world. During this period of mourning and change, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which the Queen was so widely held.”
As Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II said: “We should take comfort that while we may have more still to endure, better days will return. We will meet again”

As we enter the present day with yet more change coming in an already unstable world, we must remember the Queen’s teachings and embrace her hopes that “the attributes of self-discipline, of quiet, good-humored resolve, and of fellow feeling still characterize this country.”
In the words of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II: “We sometimes think the world’s problems are so big that we can do little to help. On our own, we cannot end wars or wipe out injustice. But the cumulative impact of thousands of small acts of goodness can be bigger than we imagine.”
Rest Well.
Some believe it to be a sign of her passing, others argue against it. Whichever way it is, the timing is uncanny. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
