Do you know your spirit guide /guardian angel?

Your primary spirit guide is your own spirit, the one who has been with you from the moment you took your first breath. It is not so much a matter of “meeting” your spirit as it is of becoming aware of them, of recognizing the many times they have influenced your thoughts and actions, and then actively seeking their guidance. The best way to draw closer to your spirit is through the regular practice of meditation, prayer, and reflection. Spend quiet time alone, in a natural setting if possible (human spirits have an “inborn” connection to the natural world). Without trying too hard, be open to awareness of your spirit’s energy.

It will help to think back to times in your life when you have felt compelled to follow a course of action, had a sudden impulse to do something positive for yourself or others, have felt deep emotion, experienced joy. How would you describe the energy that accompanied each event? Know that your spirit was present on those occasions. Joy is the one emotion that can only exist if your spirit joins with you in the experience.

It might take weeks or months of practice before you feel a strong sense of your spirit, or you might realize that you have always had some awareness of them but did not realize that a particular feeling or energy was your spirit. Try not to have any pre-conceived ideas based on popular concepts of how a spirit guide might appear to you.

Besides their own spirit, everyone has a guardian spirit who is often, but not always, with them. This might be a spirit with whom you have shared a previous lifetime, but it will not have been a recent one or a spirit with whom you have shared several lifetimes in a close relationship. They will know more than your spirit about events that are to transpire and will attempt to guide you to those that are destined for you, but they do not provide daily guidance.

Other than the above two spirits, others who might sometimes be close will be there more to offer comfort and support than to guide you, though they might occasionally offer suggestions to your spirit or guardian. It is important that your spirit be your primary influence, that they have autonomy — your life is not meant to be a group project.

My sources are two spirits who spoke to me through another person (not channeled). To learn about my experience with them, see my profile link to The Invisible Choir.Your spirit guide is your guardian angel. The two are one and the same. They can hear you all the time, they’ve watched over you your entire life and always will. It is possible to hear them and talk to them but most people won’t be able to because they aren’t ready for it.

You can’t ask them for wishes like a genie, but they can run things up the chain for you if you want. If you want to communicate with your spirit guide you will need a pendulum. I use a crystal one and I would recommend a crystal one, you can buy them online if you want or a local crystal and holistic shop will have them.

They aren’t expensive but they are very useful. Your third eye will need to be open for you to be able to use a pendulum correctly otherwise it will just move because of muscle twitches in your arm. When you buy one be patient with yourself. You won’t get it straight away and mightn’t for a while but you can do it. Believe in yourself and in your guardian angel. To use your pendulum, hold your arm still and rest it on whatever you can. I rest my elbow in my other hand and that hand on my thigh,

I breathe slowly and sit somewhere comfortable, generally my bed, I take a few deep breaths and focus on my pendulum. You can ask it to show you yes, it will then swing in the appropriate direction for that answer, then ask it to show you no, it will change directions and show you no, then ask it to show you I don’t know and it will show you I don’t know. Once that works then you know that your guardian angel is there.

You can then ask as many yes or no questions as you like, if you want to spell things out like asking them their name, you can tell them that you will say letters in order and for each letter you will start the alphabet again and when the letter is correct to say yes, and to say no each time the letter is wrong just so you can be sure of it. You can ask them to tell you how many lives you’ve lived, whatever you want really.

There are no basic rules on how many you can have. You always have a personal guide (unless you are an extra-terrestrial volunteer or an ascended master, they do not need guides, but they have support teams for their missions). There will be also some ancestors watching over you as a family member - often grandparents or parents who passed, sometimes a patriarch or matriarch of the family from many centuries ago.

Whereas Shaman will work with the spirits and teachers in the upper world, and also with ancestors and spirit animals. You will also have specialist guides who were very good at certain occupations in their past lives, while they are in the spirit world - they help incarnated humans in their occupations, or students learning skills or getting academic knowledge. Specialist guides come and go, depending on what you do. You also might have Specialist guides for particular areas of life or character traits - relationships, leadership, patience, joy etc.

Healer guides and medical teams assist with healing. They are a variation of Specialist Guides, and we might have to go to a healing place in 5D in a meditation or a dream to connect with them. Teachers in 5D are not necessarily our personal Guides, but we travel at night in astral body to take classes with them in ‘night schools”. When you see an ‘auditorium dream” - this is usually the night school. We continue studying with them between human lives.

Your own past life personalities can act as guides, or members of your soul group, and monadic twin flames who are not in incarnation with you. (Twin Flames usually do not incarnate together, but they can be on your guidance team). Angels are not guides, they do not have human lives, and they watch over many humans, rarely you have a ‘personal Angel” who is watching over you all your life. They usually come to save your life in dangerous situations, help with healing, inspire spiritual speech or art, help to cross over ‘stuck” souls, etc. People in healing occupations, people working with children, rescue workers and protectors - have Angels ‘behind their backs” helping them in their work, and also protecting them.

In my past life regression sessions, I sometimes see teams of 10 and more Guides, but usually - 2–3 guides at a time. Plus during the session, we can invite Guides for certain tasks or ask a past life personality to be the client’s guide. But I had clients who only work with their higher self and the Source directly and do not work with any guides at all and these are usually very experienced souls or souls who are visiting from other worlds.
