When I first stared getting interested in spiritual world, way before I even knew what Reiki was, realising the existence of Angels and guides was the first thing I played with. It was a revelation to me that there were beings just patiently waiting to hear from me, to assist me in any way... all they need was my permission to help. It's a free will thing... they can't intervene unless you ask for help! It started playing around in this concept to see what I could create with their help, to see if anything changed... would I get proof that they existed? After dabbling in this for short time, I knew for sure, this was definitely a truth, they were always there... I just need to ask!
So how did I start communicating...
I asked for little things to be presented to me... Car spaces, green lights, money to come in to pay a bill... and to my amazement they all came through. It created a lot of synchronicity in my everyday life. At the time I was working in a job that I was ready to move on from, I was feeling the call to shift to something new, I just didn't know what it was yet... so I was waiting it out until my then boyfriend, Sam (now my husband), to finish his Uni degree so we could travel.
There we times when I was struggling, mentally, to keep my spirits up in a day to day life that felt like it was dragging. Even though it was a job I was really good at, I didn't feel fulfilled. It got me down sometimes, so on those harder days I would make sure I always got out into the sunshine. I felt like if I could be in nature, sit on some grass, and feel the sun on my skin, it would revived me, it would fill me up to get through the day. One day I was struggling to keep going, feeling very down like i was done. I felt like I needed some of that reviving sun energy, but as I sat down on the small patch of grass in the middle of the city concrete jungle, it was overcast.... so I thought lets test it out... play with this 'Angel thing'. So I asked, actually I DEMANDED my Angels to move the clouds, I need the sun and they need to do it now. I was very insisted with my energy and intention. It was such a small thing but it seemed life and death to me in that moment where I was struggling to keep going. I swear within a minute, the wind changed and moved the clouds and the sun peaked through onto my patch of grass. I basked in the glow of this beautiful warm Melbourne sun (not burning hot one like on the Coast!) and their was my proof. It was a revelation to me that I could in fact change my world just by intention, by just asking for what wanted. Within a situation where I felt trapped and disempowered like i couldn't go on, I felt so very powerful.... so happy and fulfilled in that present moment.
Another one of my proofs, that Spirit Guides exist... At the time, working in the job I knew I wanted to shift from, I would go for a walk every morning. It set me up for my day and got me moving. I loved walking through the bush and watching the at the ducks at my local creek, it just made me so happy to see them. I had been working with my guides, asking for things and with manifesting. I set an intention with my Spirit Guides to see the ducks one morning. I had a big attachment to them lifting my mood, as I was feeling dread about going to work that day. As I got to the creek I saw the empty water. It seems like a small thing but I felt pretty down as I continued on my walk after failing to see my ducky friends splashing in the water. I was thinking... why didn't it work, I asked for them, why weren't they there? I was walking down the street feeling anger and disappointment. I passed the suburban houses, almost home when I heard a noise.... I see a duck waddling around someones front garden about 1 km from the creek... I could believe it, you don't usually see a wild duck in someones suburban front yard! I was shocked and I got all the validation I needed! This experience filled me with joy and created a little magic that filled my cup for the day. I got what I asked for but it just didn't come in way I thought it would.
This was a big lesson in manifestation and intention. We don't alway get what we ask for in the way we expect. It opened me up to what was possible. It taught me that no matter what is happening in my life, I can always create small moments of MAGIC. It's our connection to spirit/source that is often lacking in those low times, being out of alignment with our being. The little moments... a quacking duck far from home, some warm sunshine on you skin or grass under you feet... those moments of gratitude and connection to nature can change everything. Those micro moments are a connect to Spirit, to source frequency. It can transform your mood in an instant and fill up your empty cup. I realised I was a powerful creator and could manifest my reality... it created a fire in me. I had to know more, an so begin my spiritual journey!
At the start of this journey I often didn't know what to ask, like what's the right question to ask you Spirit Guides, what if you don't know the question, but you know you need help? Just start by asking you guides for a CLEAR SIGN about where you are headed next. I guarantee your Spirit Guides and giving you signs and trying to communicate with you already, but often we are just not aware or listening. So asking for a 'clear sign' or something and more obvious... you might find that guidance is now stuck right up in your face. In truth, Angels and Guides often think their signs are obvious, but to a human, it's often not. As they are working from a higher dimensional plane of existence they don't feel what its like to be in the density of this 3rd dimensional reality.
Discernment
It is so fun to pay around with your Spirit Guides but there it is important to practice discernment within this field and know that not all entities are her for your best and highest good. Without the proper intention, and just opening yourself up to hearing from guides, you leave yourself open to connecting with anything, which includes lower vibrational or dark entities. The wording and intention is important. Here is an example of how to call on them:
"I call on my angels, guides/higher dimension beings of light (say what feels right to you) through creator/source/the universal life force energy (what resonates), that are here for my best and highest good"..... then ask you question.
Pay attention to how you feel when connecting with guides. Notice how you body feels... if there hesitation, a resistance or do you feel safe/love? If you feel anything but love they are not there for you best and highest good. No guide should every be impatient, angry or upset with you. If you are ever unsure, ask the guide directly. If you can hear them, they will tell you straight up YES or NO. If it is NO then command them to leave and go back to where they came from instantly.
Examples of questions to ask:
Insert your intention phrase as above before asking the question....
"Please show me the next step on my path."
"Please give me a clear sign that I am making the right decision about...".
"Please help with with ....(add situation) for the best and highest good for myself and all involved. "
"I could really use some help today with ......... (insert situation) please"
"Please shower my body in healing light" (do this one resting in meditation)
Who can your guides be?
Angels
Ancestors
Gods/Godess'
Ascended Masters
Karmic guides - souls from your other lives here to help and complete Karma with you.
Cosmic beings - They are from higher dimensional planes/other planet... Pleadians, Acturian, Greys, Lyrian etc)
Working with Angel/oracle cards is another fun way to start working with your Spirit Guides. Shuffle your deck and ask 'What do my Spirit Guides want me to know today for my best and highest good... " then pick a card. You will be surprised how accurate the messages are when you use an intention!
Have fun playing around with your Spirit Guides!
