Understanding Spirit Guides A Comprehensive Guide from a Medium

If you're wondering what on Earth (or perhaps, not on Earth) Spirit Guides are, you're in the right place.
As a medium, this is a part of my everyday life, a constant, comforting presence. And I'm here to share this profound knowledge with you. So, let's cast aside our skepticism, embrace our inner explorers, and journey into the unknown together! 
In the ever-mysterious, always fascinating world of the spiritual and metaphysical, Spirit Guides are like your cosmic cheerleaders. They're like the wise old owl in every Disney movie ever, minus the feathers (usually).

These benevolent entities are thought to be assigned to us before we're even a twinkle in our mother's eye. Their job? To stick with us through thick and thin, guiding us, whispering wisdom in our ears, and helping us navigate life's rollercoaster ride.

Spirit Guides can come in all shapes and sizes, from ancestral spirits and animal totems to high-vibe entities like angels or ascended masters. They don't do time zones or geography, and they have a knack for finding creative ways to get their messages across - dreams, symbols, gut feelings, or those weird 'coincidences' that are just too spot-on to be chance.

Different Types of Spirit Guides

Just like a cosmic version of The Avengers, your Spirit Guide team can have all sorts of members. Let's meet some of the usual suspects:

1. Ancestral Guides:

These are the spirits of your great-great-great-grandma Agnes or that distant uncle who was a bit of a maverick. They're family, they've got your back, and they're here to offer guidance from the other side.

2. Angelic Guides:

Like your own personal cosmic superheroes, these guides are all about love, healing, and protection. They're divine messengers helping you level up in life.

3. Animal Guides:

 Or as I like to call them, the "Furry Friends Brigade". These are the spiritual essence of particular animals, popping up to offer their unique wisdom. Got a hawk showing up a lot? You might need to take the high road or get a bird's-eye view of a situation.

4. Ascended Masters Guides:

These guides are like your spiritual celebrities - enlightened beings such as Buddha or Jesus, here to drop spiritual wisdom bombs and profound guidance.

Everyone's Spirit Guide team is unique, just like our fingerprints or our coffee orders. But remember, it's not about what form they take, it's about the love, wisdom, and guidance they bring. And the occasional cosmic nudge when we're about to walk into a metaphorical lamppost.

Spotting the Signs: How to Recognize your Spirit Guides

Have you ever been minding your own business when - bam! - a sudden insight or idea pops into your head? Or maybe you've had a recurring dream, animal encounter, or number sequence that seemed too meaningful to be a coincidence? Well, you might just be having a spiritual encounter, my friend.

As a seasoned guide in this field, I’ve been teaching women across Europe and the USA to decipher these signals. With experience and practice, you can learn to recognize when your Spirit Guides are trying to get your attention. Here are some common signs:

1. Synchronicities:
These are meaningful coincidences, like seeing the same number everywhere or running into someone right when you were thinking about them. If you're seeing patterns, your Spirit Guides might be trying to send you a message.

2. Dreams:
When we sleep, our conscious mind takes a backseat, which can give our Spirit Guides a clear channel to communicate with us. If you've been having some seriously cinematic dreams, pay attention to the symbols, characters, and emotions in them.

3. Gut feelings:
You know that feeling when you just know something, even if you can't explain why? That's intuition, baby! And it's a direct hotline to your Spirit Guides.

4. Natural phenomena:
Ever found a feather in an unexpected place or seen a rainbow on a clear day? Your Spirit Guides can use the natural world to send signs and messages.

Remember, this isn't an exact science, and it's all about tuning into your own intuitive abilities. Which, by the way, you absolutely have, even if you think you're as psychic as a teapot. Trust me, I’ve been there too, doubting my own abilities, but with time and practice, you can tap into these messages.

My own story

Let me tell you a story about my own spiritual awakening and how I came to know my spirit guides.

Once upon a time, I was an apprentice. This wasn't your cute, fun, learning-how-to-craft-beautiful-designer-dresses kind of apprenticeship. Oh no, it was the kind that would have made Dickens cringe. My boss was a female narcissist with a temperament as predictable as a tornado in a trailer park. She had daily tantrums, flinging words of my supposed stupidity and lack of talent at me like a possessed baseball pitching machine.

Three years of that can feel like an eternity. But in my darkest moments, when the verbal onslaught seemed too much to bear, I silently called for help. And help came, but not in the form I was expecting. It came from the spiritual realm.

I know what you're thinking. "She lost her mind, didn't she?" Well, that's what I thought at first too when my spirit guides showed up. But their presence was calming, soothing even. It was like having my own personal cheerleading squad, invisible to the naked eye, but ever-present in spirit.

And you know what? The boss didn't stop screaming, but with my spiritual entourage by my side, I felt protected, even entertained. I started feeling better every day. And guess what happened at the end of this grueling apprenticeship?

I became the best apprentice in my country! Haha, talk about a plot twist, right?

This was how I started a real relationship with my spirit guides. And they've been with me ever since, guiding me through the ups and downs of life. So, yes, it's been a wild journey, but it's also been the most rewarding one.

Today, as a Medium and spiritual teacher, I often find that one of the most common questions I receive from my students is, "How can I connect with my Spirit Guides?" This is a great question.

When it comes to connecting with your Spirit Guides, the process is a deeply personal and subjective one, and as such, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. What works for one person may not work for another, and the process may also evolve and change over time as you grow and develop spiritually.

My Journey as a Medium

In my journey as a medium, I've had the privilege of connecting with many Spirit Guides and have learned invaluable lessons along the way. If you're interested in delving deeper into my experiences and the insights I've gained, I invite you to read my other blog post, "How to Communicate with Deceased Loved Ones - A Comprehensive Guide from a Medium". It provides a more detailed look into my journey and the profound impact these sessions have had on me and those I've helped.

Building the Connection: How to Communicate with your Spirit Guides

When it comes to connecting with your Spirit Guides, the process is a deeply personal and subjective one, and as such, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. What works for one person may not work for another, and the process may also evolve and change over time as you grow and develop spiritually. But here are some tips that will help.

• Meditation: This is like the WhatsApp of the spiritual world. By quieting your mind and focusing your intention on connecting with your Spirit Guides, you can create a space for their messages to come through.
• Automatic writing: This technique involves writing without conscious thought and is a way for your Spirit Guides to communicate directly through you. Grab a pen, clear your mind, and let the words flow.
• Divination tools: Tarot cards, runes, pendulum dowsing - these are all tools that can help you communicate with your Spirit Guides. They act like a spiritual translator, turning their guidance into something you can understand.
• Nature connection: Spending time in nature can help you tune into the spiritual world and connect with your animal or nature guides. Whether you're hiking, gardening, or just sitting under a tree, nature can provide a powerful bridge to your guides.

What keeps us away from the connection

In my teachings, I've seen that the journey to connect with Spirit Guides typically starts with an act of faith. This means beginning to believe in and trust our connection to spirit and allowing our logical and analytical conscious mind to take a backseat for a while. It's important to release expectations and preconceived ideas about what our Spirit Guides might look like, how they might communicate, and how the overall experience will feel.

Overthinking comes from holding tight to the preconceived ideas of what we think the experience is supposed to look and feel like, analyzing our experience against these expectations to the point of not allowing our connection to spirit to come through. Trying too hard is similar, it’s trying to force one particular experience, rather than allowing the experience to be what it is. Each spirit guide experience may prove to be very different from the last. This is because when doubts come into our minds, in our very human desire to do things right and to succeed, our conscious mind takes control of the situation.

I've found that allowing your imagination to play a part can be very helpful in this process. Pretending as though you are communicating with your guides can invite them in. I've heard students express that this felt a little silly at first, but it worked for them. As a teacher, my goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment for this exploration and experimentation.

Releasing expectations is an important part of preparing yourself to meet your guides. Allow yourself to have the experience for what it is. Allow it to flow. And allow yourself to have fun in the process.

But with practice and time, it can open up a new realm of wisdom and guidance that can significantly enrich your spiritual journey.

Remember, the journey is not about reaching a destination; it's about the experience along the way. So, as you embark on this exciting adventure, I encourage you to stay open, stay curious, and most importantly, enjoy the journey!
