3 Things you need to know about your Spirit Guides
Every time I sit my magical butt down and start scrolling through Facebook, a post pops up about Spirit Guides.
What are they?
Who are they?
Do I have one? How do I know?
How do I open up my connection to my Guide?
There’s a lot of information out there on this topic and it can be extremely overwhelming to sift through. So, here is a super short list of 3 Things You Need to Know About Spirit Guides:
1.Spirit Guides are not a fixed thing. Just as you change and grow from one day to the next, your Guide or Guides may change. There are many different theories as to whether or not you have actual different Guides over time or whether it is all part of your energetic Self that is appearing in the form that you need at that moment. Personally, I don’t think it matters which you believe to be true. If you’re feeling like you are seeing owls left and right or you’re suddenly seeing the name of a Goddess all over the place that you’ve never thought of before, or you’re seeing a specific name over and over again. Follow that thread and speak to it.
2. We are all capable of receiving information from Spirit Guides but we aren’t all especially great at actually hearing that information. Our egos get in the way, logic gets in the way, and the busy world around us keeps us from slowing down long enough to hear. Strengthening your intuitive muscles is a great way to open yourself up to truly hearing your Guide, but, in the meantime, simply ask for a sign. You can start by asking for a sign that your guide is present. State what sign you will be looking for and then keep your eyes peeled! Once I asked to be shown a blue ribbon and instead say blue robin’s eggs on the ground in three different places over two days (both places I have frequented in the past 9 years and had never seen a robin’s egg before). It dawned on me that that could be my ‘blue ribbon’. I said, is this my sign that you are present? I didn’t see anymore robin’s eggs after that and took that as confirmation! Be open.
3. Asking other people or seeking readings to determine who or what your Guide is can be extremely fulfilling, helpful, and confirming. But, there are always layers to these relationships and energies so know that you may receive differing information in the future or may suddenly feel like a connection has shifted.
I hope that this clears some things up around Spirit Guides for you!
If you want to develop a relationship with your Spirit Guide or Guides, schedule in some time to get quiet. Speak to them and ask for signs to confirm your path forward or confirm that you aren’t alone. And, remember to be a bit flexible in receiving that sign.
You can also create a small space dedicated to your Guide, write a letter to your Guide, or even set out an extra teacup and invite your Guide to tea!
Might be best to do that last one at home!
Think less and receive more, my friends.
