You may not realize it, but your Spirit Guides are always close by watching over you, waiting to communicate with you.
It’s true. There are many different types of Spirit Guides. Those from the Upper World are called Light Beings, those from the Lower world are called Medicine Woman and Men and those from the middle world are what I consider to be Wisdom teachers. Every Spirit Guide has a different vibration and different medicine to offer you.
Every single one of us has access to the support of Spirit Guides.
Spirit beings communicate with us through our Spirit Selves aka our higher selves. If you’re curious to learn to connect with your Spirit Guides, you have to move past the thinking mind, past the emotional body and into the realm of the Super Consciousness. In other words, you have to be a clear channel to receive and understand the messages they are providing to you. So, how do you become a clear channel?
The following Meet Your Spirit Guide Meditation + the five practices below provide a foundation for communication with Spirit Guides.
Meet Your Spirit Guide Meditation
First, this guided practice, which I’ve called the Meet Your Spirit Guides Meditation, is a tool I created to help you to drop into your true nature, and open up to receive the guidance that’s available to you.
While it may feel foreign at first, the more you move into ceremonial practices, like the Meet Your Spirit Guide Meditation above and the practices outlined below, the stronger your relationship will become both with your inner wisdom, and the Spirit realm around you.
Here are five beautiful practices you can begin to use to connect with your Spirit Guides, and with your own Spirit.
1. Build an inner alter to become a clear channel to dial into the right frequency.
- Inner Energetic practices such as breathwork help to clear out emotional and mental patterns within the blood and the nervous system.
- Cleansing your energy field with a flowering cool bath using rosemary, white and red carnations.
- Commit to a spiritual practice of self-journeying, movement, and inner listening.
2. Build a relationship with your Spirit Guides that encompasses receiving and giving as if you were building a relationship with someone in your life. Provide beautiful offerings to them, such as flowers and sweet honey or chocolate. Guides love offerings. As you and Spirit Guides share time during this process, your connection becomes much stronger. The Meet Your Spirit Guide Meditation above is a resource you’re welcome to access whenever you’d like.
- White, Red and Pink flowers, for the Light beings in the Upper World: blow prayers and gratitude in the flower pedals they will provide you with insight to what you are seeking.
- Kernels of Corn for the ancestors who will work with you for healing.
- Chocolate because Mother Earth loves chocolate.
- Something that represents your special offering to them for the guidance you need. I like to put a seashell or a rose in the middle.
e. Once you have completed the above and arranged the offering in a way that feels good to you by following your own intuition and guidance, wrap up the offering in white paper and offer it to the fire or bury it in the earth for them to be received.
3. Journeying is one of my favorite ways to connect to my Guides. Journeying is a process on its own, but I will share a simple practice here with you. Find a drumming journey tune from either Spotify or YouTube. You are looking for the drumming only. The drum will act as a portal to bring you into a deep state of relaxation.
- Lay back with a blind fold on and blanket on you, take a couple of deep breaths.
- Set an intention for your journey, perhaps you are doing some personal transformation work and would like some healing, or assistance with some insight.
- Allow the drum to pull you in with each beat and call upon the ancestors for healing or the light beings for insight. Allow whatever visions, sounds or feelings to arise as you journey.
- When the journey is over, give thanks and immediately write down your experience.
4. Smoke ceremony is very powerful. It is used to clear our own perception, and purify our mind while we call upon our Spirit Guides to come sit with us. These are the tools you will need.
- Ceramic holder for your charcoal and your Black Copal Resin
- Shell or cast-iron pot to burn herbs of cedar, sweet grass, juniper, roses.
- Light the copal and the herbs and call in your Spirit Guides to be with you as you purify your mind and your energy bodies. This is also an offering to them to sit with you during this time.
- Close your eyes and allow yourself to move into a deep state of meditation. Do not be surprised if you start singing or chanting as Spirit moves within you.
5. Meet with your Spirit Guides often. Usually the early mornings and the evenings is a good time. This should be a sacred time for you. Consistency is key for yourself and your Spirit Guides. Remember, you are building a relationship with them. Visit them often. And if you need a little help with dropping into the space of openness to receive, you can use the above spirit guide meditation as a support.
Personally, connecting with my own Spirit Guides has provided me with so much healing, awareness, and connection to my higher self and I cannot recommend it enough which is why I’ve shared the above practices and the Meet Your Spirit Guide Meditation. Enjoy the process and let me know if you have any questions!
