The Importance of Meeting and Greeting Your Guides.
Hello Everyone,
"How do I know who my guides are?" is a common question I am asked when I am teaching psychic or mediumship development and it is one that causes angst amongst those that are developing their abilities.
So this month I was inspired to give you my take on guides. We all have them and they work hard at trying to give us a gentle (and sometimes not so gentle!), nudges in the right direction as we are lead onto path.
We are often given clues about who they might be as we are going about our daily lives. Is there a particular language, country or culture you are drawn to? Growing up, i was always attracted to the colours, music and vibrancy of India and it is no coincidence that my main guide Sunji is an Indian guru.
it took me years to get to know him and to find out who he was. In fact the first time i asked him what his name was he laughed and replied, "in which lifetime?" I will be channelling Sunji later this month and you can find out more here.
Making a regular appointment to connect with your guides is so important in your spiritual development and you can do that through an active meditation called Sitting in the Power designed to enhance your awareness of the spirit world.
Our guides then they will make the effort to connect with us and make their presence felt. Remember to be patient with yourself and your guides.
So why is it important during your development to get to know your guides?..
Building a Foundation of Trust
Meeting and greeting your guides establishes a foundation of trust and mutual respect. Just as you would introduce yourself to new colleagues or neighbours, acknowledging your guides builds a harmonious relationship. This initial connection allows you to become familiar with their unique energies, personalities, and ways of communicating with you. By taking the time to greet your guides, you invite their presence and show your willingness to work collaboratively. This mutual respect fosters a stronger bond, making it easier for you to receive clear, accurate messages.
Enhancing Communication Clarity
Clear communication with your guides is crucial for accurate readings and spiritual work. When you regularly greet and connect with your guides, you become attuned to their vibrational frequencies. Regularly meeting with your guides also allows you to understand their symbolic language. Many guides communicate through symbols, feelings, or impressions rather than words. The more time you spend in their presence, the better you will interpret these messages, leading to more precise and insightful readings.
Deepening Your Spiritual Growth
Your guides are not just messengers; they are teachers and mentors on your spiritual journey. Regularly connecting with them allows you to receive guidance, wisdom, and insights that facilitate your personal and spiritual growth. Through this relationship, you can uncover deeper truths about yourself and your place in the universe. This openness your foster accelerates your development as a medium and enriches your overall spiritual practice.
My tips for meeting your Guides.
Create a Sacred Space: Find a quiet, comfortable space where you can focus without distractions. This space should feel peaceful and conducive to spiritual work.
Set Clear Intentions: Before beginning, set the intention to connect with your guides. State your purpose clearly, whether it’s for guidance, protection, or communication.
Ground Yourself: Grounding exercises, such as deep breathing or visualization, help you center your energy and open up to your guides' presence.
Introduce Yourself: Mentally or verbally introduce yourself. Share your intention to work with your guides and invite them to join you.
Be Patient and Open: Building a relationship with your guides takes time. Be patient and open to their presence, even if you don’t sense them immediately.
Express Gratitude: Always thank your guides for their assistance and presence. Gratitude strengthens your connection and shows appreciation for their support.
Incorporating the practice of meeting and greeting your guides into your spiritual routine can profoundly enhance your work as a medium. This foundational step fosters trust, clarity, protection, and growth, making your spiritual journey more fulfilling and effective.
As you continue to develop your mediumistic abilities, remember that your guides are your allies and mentors, ready to support and guide you every step of the way. Embrace the opportunity to connect with them, and watch as your spiritual practice transforms.
