Looking is implying seeking which is searching for something that which we don't have. That which you seek will never find you for that implicates that you do not have said thing being sought after.
In my experience false signs and syncronicities happen when I feel desperate for a sign. When I really want some indication, implying force through thought however stops ebb and flow causing conflict.
Know that when a sign is ment for you it will come to you but without expectation
