Meditation to Find Spirit Guides Angels & Light Worker Beings of Light or Guardians Meditation |
During spiritually guided meditation's, spirit need to draw close in order to link with us, this is done by a blending of their own and our energies within our aura. Within this blending spirit try to match their own spiritual vibration or spiritual frequency with that of our own to make spiritual communications possible.
Spirits are beings of energy and light and are of spiritual life forces and powers, as are we ourselves spirit living within the physical body and shell. Thus during the blending of spirits and throughout any meditation, experiences and sensations of energies and tingling may be felt particularly around the face head neck and shoulders, on occasion this tingling can be all over the body and at times when spirit are giving us a lot of their power in order to help us, it can become acute and quite uncomfortable, in time as communications improve spirit do not have to use quite so much power. Therefore it is best to bear it when possible, if you find the energy too much ask spirit to back off a little.
The reason this happens in the beginning of spiritual meditations is because spirit do have to open the spiritual mind and chakra's and the energies they are using help to do this and open other perceptions such as the third or psychic eye, this takes a great deal of power and you may experience feelings of pressure and energy on and around your mind during meditation, again if this becomes too uncomfortable, send out a thought to your spirit asking them to back off a little, saying! Please take it away. After a few minutes of this heavy pressure it can begin to bring on a slight headache, but if possible try to tolerate it. Spirit energy's can give feelings like cobwebs around the facial area. Spirit may try differing techniques of communication; one is overshadowing and giving impressions of themselves. In time it might feel as though someone is making you feel strong and upright or you may feel you have a beard, these are all impressions given by spirit, as mentioned there are impressions to encourage that healing is sometimes ask for and sent out to others in need.
In spiritual meditation we all have to learn to ask questions of spirit. We are not expected to just blindly except whatever is happening, nor are we expected to just put blind faith into spirit, we have the right to question and are encouraged by spirit to speak up to them and question them, rather than just putting up with something we do not understand or wish to ask for fear of looking silly, spirit are very understanding and tolerant, so please do ask, even if it seems stupid. Spirit themselves cannot always be totally aware of all our needs and may not always recognise how we are effected and if you do not tell them if something bothers you, then you cannot always expect it to change or to receive an answer. I have known people who have meditated for weeks and kept getting the same feeling or pain week in and week out in their meditations, until eventually they finally said something and by asking why they had such a feeling, they were answered and told that they had been picking up on a condition of someone on the earth who was in need of healing, it was that simple. When they asked healing for this person the pain left and has not returned since. We should remember there is often a purpose in what experiences spirit give us.
It is a myth that all are perfect that live within the spirit realms. The truth is that we are very well looked after by those of our guides and loved ones here and we are protected from most negativity's and we should all have spiritual gatekeepers to protect us, there is very little to fear and that is true, that does not mean all spirits are good. Some mediums do on occasion find spirit coming to them that sometimes are in need of help and they can be quite offensive and even evil, most can be helped and there are ways to ask for them to be guided to the light. Generally this does not happen but it is something to be aware of, these spirits are sometimes earth bound souls that have little understanding of the spirit realms. There are a few in spirit that have not overcome the cloak of darkness that they have taken on in their lives here and they too can come back to the earth from the spirit realms, this is why we should put light around ourselves and ask for a gatekeeper and protection.
If we wish spirit to work with us here, in the first place we do need to ask for their help and guidance. Spirit guides have their own rules to follow and do very much have to wait until invited before they are seriously allowed to attempt communication with us. We do not always have to be aware that they are spiritual guides and ask for their spiritual guidance. For instance some children become very aware of spirit guides, but mostly they would not know that they are seeing their own guides, who would often show themselves as a child to children. Children here may just see them standing nearby and become accustomed to seeing them to a point where they may begin to talk and ask these guides to join in their games etc. Children consider these guides often to be their pretend friends, who they can see at times when others can't.
Unfortunately as children become older they themselves begin to dismiss these friends as not being real and are of their own minds creation, true in some cases this might be the case, but in other's these really have been their spirit guides that they have been seeing and often talking to. Many of the natural mediums here have memories of guides coming to them as children. Spirit Guides are only allowed to act as friends to children, but are not allowed to interfere with a child's normal progression or life. This is the same case for us all, guides can give good advice but it is we that must lead our own lives and guides must not interfere with that. Our own loved one's who have passed over are not so restricted by these rules and can attempt communication with us at will and during meditation loved one's can and are at times present with guides as spirit helpers.
Spirits that come here can come just to be here or to be close to loved ones, others come specifically as spiritual guides and they have their own ways of teaching that are considered to be the appropriate way. Guides are as they are called spiritual guides, they are here to guide us toward finding our own spiritual pathway and understandings, they are not here to teach us everything we need to know, but rather to guide us toward finding our own answers. The virtue is in learning and discovering the truth by our own means. This is considered to be in the best interest of our own personal progression and growth within our own spiritual development and evolution and is deemed to be the most appropriate means by which of helping us to find our own spiritual enlightenment. Spirit consider there is little virtue gained by the individual who is taught everything, rather they consider there is a much greater value gained by those who seek to discover. Truth in the words seek and ye shall find and the truth is that our Father's house has many mansions and there are so many new doors that can be opened by using the latent gifts of the spirit.
What we all want of course is to be able to see and hear spirit on our first attempt at spiritual communication and we would all like a loved one in spirit to be there. Unfortunately it does not usually happen quite so quickly as we might like it too, try not to be disappointed if it seems you are not getting anywhere at first and what is worth having often has to be earnt. These things take time and patience and keeping an open mind is a virtue to have. Usually the ones we most want to hear from are usually the hardest to find, this is sometimes because we are so closely connected to them psychically, that it becomes difficult to link with them at first, because we have become so accustomed to the energies they give off psychically. Many working mediums receive messages for others, yet they cannot seem to attune to get one for themselves from their own loved ones.
Many here do at times sense and have feelings that a loved one in spirit is present and is still close to them here, these feelings are often correct. There are times when we seem to be more sensitive to loved ones in spirit or our guides. These times are varied but are quite often as we go to sleep and wake up. At these times our minds are changing modes as we are either going into or coming out of the spiritual mode or state of mind that is found half way between consciousness and sleep. This seems the state of mind that spirit can work well with. It is not so dissimilar to a daydream like state, where the mind relaxes and starts to drift. Many clairvoyants do go into a altered state of mind when they tune in to spirit and it is not so dissimilar to a daydream like state, it is likened to when your mind becomes still and imaginative, when the mind is thus, it seems a time when inspiration may come more freely from spirit and flow into the mind.
To begin with the thoughts that may be received from spirit can feel like a thought that drifts into your mind or springs to mind, we can dismiss these thoughts so easily by believing they are of our own making, it is our mind that spirit is using to give and pass their messages to us, so give it time and keep an open mind to the possibility that it may be spirit and if it is you will at some point find the proof, and as you become more sensitive spirit will try to form and put words into your mind for yourself and maybe to give and pass on to others, this will also confirm to you that what you are receiving is correct, as others here may confirm what you are telling them is correct, so it takes time to recognize spirit from our own minds imaginations.
Most mediums even on a good day only expect to get 70 to 90% of what they are saying correct and sometimes they can and do have an off day. We all regulate our own subconscious through the conscious mind and it acts a bit like a guard dog, stopping the subconscious from daydreaming all of the time, in meditation we have to try to relax the conscious minds control over the sub-conscious to aid spiritual communications.
Those who are open and trusting with a creative and imaginative mind and of a welcoming nature toward spirit can often be or become natural mediums and clairvoyants, because they are already partly using the gifts that are adaptable toward spiritual awareness. Some do find the ability to attune to spirit more readily than others and there are those who do struggle with spiritual communication because of their mind set. It is difficult to categorise people who are more or less able. Those who sometimes have difficulty are often those who try but are not open enough within their own minds and tend to question the reality of whether it is possible or not. We all question spirit communication in the beginning as it is usually on a very subtle level, until we become more progressed and receive more defined proof that we are getting what we think we are getting from spirit. Those that find it difficult do often seem to be those who have to be able to understand and explain how everything works, rather than just excepting that it does, this very mind set seems to block spiritual communications. For most it takes time and is a slow process, so hearing or perceiving spirit is not likely to happen over night. It does also seem that being in water sometimes helps communication with spirit such as in the bath or shower.
In the beginning just be open to the guides that come forward and take it one step at a time, try not to dictate what you want to receive. When first contact is made with spirit they can get very excited as we begin to hear them, many of them have been trying for years to get through and it is a great celebration for them when they do. We all have guides and some prefer angels and usually more than one. We also have helpers that come and go as needed, among these helpers there may be some of our own loved ones. We each have a main guide whom in most cases stays with us throughout our lives. We also have a Gatekeeper to protect and regulate those that might wish to communicate with us if we have the clairvoyant gift. If we have reincarnated here we will have a spiritual karma who is aware of this life's pre-destined life plan and of our past lifetime.
Clairvoyant's or some might like to call it spiritualism or channeling, means an ability to commune with spirit in some form, possibly being able to, hear, see, perceive, sense, feel or have an ability to commune with spirit in one form or another. Spirit very often pass inspirations, intuitions, perceptions and impressions into the minds or chakra's of those they work with or even gut feelings. They as I have said can give those who are sensitive to feelings of physical conditions. Spirit try to develop the third or psychic eye, so that we are able to see the visual impressions they give within the minds eye. Those that are attuned to spirit may well at times see spirit through the corner of the eye in peripheral vision, later this may develop and become impressions of being able to sense and see spirit around and near you. Some here can see spirit at times materialising before their very eyes and to all intents and purposes they can see them as real and as solidly as what any mortal could.
Nearly all spirit communications are done using our minds or chakra perception and intuition centres, there are one or two exceptions, such as spiritual knockings, where on occasions spirit seem to be able to make knocking noises or can make bells ring and so forth. Again as development continues it may be possible for some to hear spirit voices audibly, both in the mind and sometimes through what seems to be the ears or coming out of the air, this is actually an impression given of being able to hear through the ears. If you are committed to develop the latent gifts of the spirit, then expect that spirit will want to develop you into becoming of some use and service to others here. This is your decision and your own choice. Spirit of course want to make the most of anybody that develops the latent gifts of the spirit and of course they wish to use them as a channel, where it is possible to help others here on the earthly plane. This is all your freewill choice and again spirit do have to be invited firstly to do so.
There are many levels and forms of spirit work and many ways to develop, the deepest form of spiritual meditation is trance mediumship in which the medium or channeler has to give themself up for to allow a trusted spirit guides of a helper or even loved one to tack full or partial control of them self, which is not recommended for beginners and not very likely that many could achieve such a level at the beginning as it takes a lot of practice and is an ability to totally let go of controlling your own mind and allow a spirit guide to have control. In this form of mediumship the host that is the medium is taken control of by a trusted spirit guide and used as an instrument through which the spirit works. The mediums very rarely remember what has transpired during this time; they become a host for a spirit guide to work through. Trance mediumship again is possible at many levels and the host is not always taken so deeply by the spirit controller. In trance the spirit controller does not come within the mediums body or mind, one spirit is solid to another, which means we are solid to spirit as we are spirit within, it is all done by the medium relinquishing and letting go of the control of their own mind and giving their mind over into the control of the spirit guide, who blends within the mediums aura to achieve such a deep link and melding of minds that they are able to use the mediums mind and body and the mediums mind is gently pushed to one side and remains in a peaceful and almost dormant state while the spirit controller has control of the host medium, for whatever purpose there is, it may be to give spiritual talks and inspirations or healing and so forth.
When spirit really get to grips with working with an individual here there is a vast amount of benefit that can come, not only to the individual but to many others, if the individual is happy to be of service to spirit and others here. Much in the way of inspiration and general help and advice as well as healing is given by spirit and many mediums and guides work closely together and when there is a need, mediums often send out a thought asking for help and often receive some form of answer, spirit cannot change things to be how we may wish them to be, but they are able to give support and often a wise reflection on matters at hand. I highly recommend seeking spiritual awareness and working with and for spirit, both here within the material world and beyond. Remembering whatever gifts of the spirit you develop is an advantage to have in the next life, where eternal and everlasting evolution and progression is possible, therefore the sooner you begin to progress yourself spiritually the more likely it becomes that you will be able to move onto the higher planes of evolution within the spirit realms, do not fear leaving others behind all spirit can travel back to lower planes. As I have said the rewards of the spirit are only discover by those who have the dedication and devotion to seek and develop the latent gifts of their own spirit. Look deeper within yourself and you might be surprised what you can find, The true life and real you, the spirit that resides within, THE TRUE SPIRIT SELF.
