Opening Up To Your Spirit Guides
Written by Heidi Sawyer
Opening up to your Spirit Guides – ways to open or enhance your connection with them.
It is more and more recognised that everyone is born with a guide who is there to help throughout our life. Some people have additional guides who come to help them with a specific lesson they need to learn or with a certain project they wish to accomplish.
Guides are your closest friends. They are there to help and are available as soon as you ask for help. They inspire and pass messages through your intuition. At first, guide provided intuition doesn’t feel much different from other types of information you receive. However, once you recognise it, you can easily see when you are receiving extra insight and guidance.
A lady who had started to develop her intuitive skills through the psychic development classes I was teaching at the time, rushed one evening to tell me of her experience during the previous week.
A year or so prior to the classes she had lost her husband to illness. She had wanted to get back in touch with a medium she had seen soon after her husband’s death. The medium had told her now was not the right time and to come back in a few months. The lady had appreciated the medium’s honesty and was ready to go back. Unfortunately she had lost her phone number.
“You’ll never guess what happened to me the other day! I’d decided to go to this psychic fayre I’d seen advertised. I was going with the idea in my head that the medium I wanted to see might be there, although I thought it was a long shot. I didn’t tell anyone I was going, or why, so what happened could ONLY be my guide helping.
“I went and looked around, leaving disappointed as there was nothing there for me. Heading for the back door, I had a real urge to turn around and go out of the front door. As I got to the door, a Range Rover stopped in the road in front of me. The driver, a lady, rolled down the passenger window and said, ‘Here, this is what you want’. She handed me a piece of paper, wound up the window and drove off. I unfolded the paper. Written on it was the name of the medium I had been looking for and her phone number! I couldn’t believe it”.
People can perceive their guides in various ways. Guides are not always Native Americans or monks; some people describe their guides as angels or as an energy or light, sometimes a warm, loving feeling. Whatever the format, those who are in touch with, or aware that they have a guide, report a common trait: the presence of their guide creates a sense of wellbeing, support, love and a lightness of spirit.
