So often in life we find ourselves at a crossroads moment, struggling to know what the right way is. There’s the fear of doing the wrong thing, of heading off in the wrong direction or worse yet…losing your way!
Every person on Earth has a spiritual team of support: higher power, angels, ancestors, soul family, and spirit guides. A spirit guide could be a spirit who has been with us in lifetimes before, an ancestor who can support us, or someone we knew in our lifetime. These are beings of the highest truth and compassion working on our behalf to guide our thoughts and energy in the path of our highest good. They’re not physical and aren’t bound by the natural laws of this world. They’re spiritual beings. We always have a relationship with these beings, but it’s up to us to decide whether we want to have a dialogue with them and let their presence be known. Spirit guides come in many forms and they have different purposes, but their common goal is to help guide us back into alignment with vibration of love in the Universe.
Spirit guides connect with us through our physical body and senses. They speak in signs and symbols, they don’t use a lot of words, and they often use a lot of humor. Spirit guides bring a lot of joy and levity, but the only way that you’re going to be able to know if you’re getting a message from your spirit guide is to be present in your physical body. If you are lost in your thoughts—rehashing the past or worrying about the future- you will probably miss the signs that are being sent to you. Connect with your spirit guides in the space of your heart chakra. The higher our own personal vibration, the height that when we raise our vibration, the closer we are with the frequency of spirit. Try to connect to your heart space, what it is that you love, and be open and curious. Here are some tips to open and develop the connection:
1) ASK: The first step to connecting with your spirit guides is to get into the habit of asking. When we forget that we can call on spirit for help, we start to rely on our strength. That’s when fear sets in. We often forget that we have guidance within us and around us. In the busyness of day-to-day life, it’s really easy to forget this connection. Therefore, the first step is to get into the habit of asking your spirit guides for help.
2) LISTEN: The second step in connecting to your spirit guides is to listen. The way to do this is by meditating. When you meditate, you quiet your mind so that you can hear the wisdom of the guidance that’s within you and around you. We have to slow down our vibration to become aligned with the presence of these guides. When we attune our energy to the frequency of love and peace, we can more easily connect to the vibrational messaging of our spirit guides.
3) WRITE: After meditation, dreaming, or when you feel called—write to your spirit guides. Write down what messages you are receiving. Write your hopes and dreams, telling them like you would to a friend… because these are the truest friends that you have. Write down what you need help with and ideas that you have. Let the pen flow and don’t second guess yourself. You are taking your thoughts and intuitions and planting them in the physical world.
4) LOOK FOR SIGNS: You can ask for a sign to guide you toward anything you desire. If you’re unsure about a decision or you simply want to know you’re on the right track, ask for a sign. And don’t get hung up about what your sign should be. Just choose the first thing that comes to your mind. Maybe you think of an animal, a song or a book title. Often people receive signs as numbers in sequence like 1111 or 444. Maybe your sign is a song, a fragrance, or a name. Just let whatever comes to your mind become your sign. Allow it to come to you naturally and commit to what you hear. The greatest way to stay connected with what your sign means and the guidance it offers is to tune into how you feel when you receive it. If you receive a sign that makes you feel connected and aligned, and you feel that you’re receiving an intuitive message to move forward, don’t second-guess it. If you think it’s a sign, it’s a SIGN.
5) BE PRESENT AND PAY ATTENTION: When you pay attention to the guidance you receive, you’re letting yourself be in the awe and wonder of all the love that is around you. It’s a big deal. This beautiful feeling is available when you truly let yourself witness the amazing support that is always with you. You don’t go around all day asking, “Where’s my guidance? Where’s my guidance?” Instead, you simply allow yourself to be open to the wonder of that guidance. Your guidance may show up in cool and unexpected ways, even in ways I haven’t mentioned here. Your guidance can show up as a song on the radio, a billboard on the freeway or somebody saying to you exactly what you needed to hear.
6) LIVE IN GRATITUDE: Thank your spirit guides. Rather than being in a place of neediness, you want to be in a place of gratitude and appreciation for their guidance and love. Shift the way you talk to your guides. If you find yourself thinking things like, “Guides, why haven’t you given me this yet?” or “Guides, I don’t believe in you. Why haven’t you shown up for me faster?” — you’re showing your distrust of them. You’re telling them you’re not really open to their guidance and that you want to be in control. When you receive any form of guidance, thank them. Just say silently, “Thank you, guides, for showing me this solution.” Or, “Thank you, guides, for this sign.” Your gratitude keeps the relationship so strong and keeps those guides present with you all the time, because they know they’re welcome.
7) TRUST THE PROCESS: Your guides have a plan that’s better than yours. They’re loving and wise, and they want to bring you to the right relationship, the right career, the doctor you need, the experience that will help you. Sometimes we get in the way of that guidance. I’ve often avoided divine guidance by trying to control situations. We must release outcomes in order to truly be in co-creation with our spirit guides
8) STAND IN YOUR POWER: Believe in yourself and in your capacity to call on this presence. Trust in your ability to connect to these guides and to feel that support. Know that you have an ever-present energy of love that is always within you and around you supporting you and guiding you. The more that you trust in your own psychic ability, the more you’ll be able to hear and the more you’ll allow this divine guidance to lead you to the highest good.
