How to Call Your Spirit Guides -
6 Ways to Connect With Them

Your spirit guides are here to help you, guide you, and support you on your journey. To contact your spirit guide(s), you can use a variety of methods, and they can be fun and easy. There are no limits other than those that we place upon ourselves. Ready to discover more? Then, let’s do this!

When we think about spirit guides, we might think of our better known spirit guide; our primary guide. This is the powerful being who is assigned to you at birth, and stays with you until you choose to transition back into nonphysical form. But, there are many more types of spirit guides that come to help you with specific areas, or during specific portions of your journey! Some people may have a plant guide for gardening, a transformational poet guide to help them write uplifting lyrics, or an animal spirit guide who’s been with them over many lifetimes. Others may have a celestial or angelic being guiding them throughout their lives or lifetimes.

 

It’s important to remember that everyone has their own unique set of needs and desires, so it’s up to each person to choose the spiritual guidance that is best suited to their path. This is initially done prior to birth, and you can also ask for additional assistance in specific areas, as you continue to play in the sandbox of time and space.

Regardless of the form your spirit guides take when interacting with you, they are most often nonphysical beings who have a strong, loving connection with you. I say most often, because they do sometimes interact with you, while also in a body in another lifetime or dimension. Regardless of their orientation, they are here to help you, guide you, and support you on your journey. They are not here to tell you what to do, because that is ultimately your choice, as an individual. Your spirit guides would never take your choice away from you. They will, however, always answer your call. When you ask for guidance, it is always given. In a future post, I’ll share how to better receive their powerful guidance. I’ll also share some fun ways I’ve interacted with my spirit guides/council over the years.

Calling for a guide can be fun and easy! Think of it as making a phone call to a trusted friend and wise advisor, who has a broad range of experience and higher perspectives they can share with you. They also have a broader ability to draw perspectives from spherical time (everything happening at once), rather than linear time (past, present, future). This can help you connect with a much wider range of opportunities that you can explore and potentially choose too! 

To contact your spirit guide(s), you can use a variety of methods. Some people may find that they can do it on their own, perhaps from childhood into adulthood. However, most people need some support when getting started, or when expanding and refining their skills, especially if they are called to use them professionally. We are, after all, educated in a culture that often considers anything you can’t see with your physical eyes as “not real”, or something to be feared. This limiting perspective can sometimes cause gifted people to turn away from their abilities until something happens to reopen them. As with all things, when we learn from a trusted advisor, someone who has been there and done it, we learn faster and easier, can get powerful tips, and can also bypass some of the common myths and blocks. We benefit from what they already know.

Spirit guides are your allies, and they can be called upon for help in many different area and ways.  You just need to find what works best for you and clarify the type of guidance you’re looking for. Here are six of the most common ways to connect with them. 

6 Ways to Call Upon Your Spirit Guides

1) Choose to have a clear, powerful connection with the best possible guidance for you. As with all experiences you attract and expand, it all starts with a clear intention and choice. The clearer the choice, the better. The more committed you are to creating a beautiful relationship with your nonphysical friends, the greater the possibilities.

2) Call on a spirit guide as you’re meditating or praying. This is the perfect space to connect, especially if you are also using an affirmative form of prayer, or are open and receptive to higher guidance as you meditate. 

3) Automatic Sacred Writing. This is one of my favorites. I’ve used it for decades and far longer if I consider my other lifetimes. I frequently recommend this to my clients, because writing will automatically slow your thinking and create space for guidance to come through. And as you slow down the thinking part of your mind, you create space to receive guidance. Want more training? You’ll find an online program here. 

As you see, so shall you be ...

4) Visualize a clear, helpful connection. As you see, so shall you be! When you mentally rehearse, you are entraining yourself to that experience. Olympic athletes, powerful healers, teachers, psychics, mystics, thought leaders, poets, musicians, and executives too … have been using the power of visualization for millennia. So, when preparing, close your eyes, breathe deeply, and see yourself smiling, you feel so connected, and you can see that you’re having a conversation with a wise, loving, perfect-for-you advisor. You feel the inspiration, the strong nurturing connection, the deep peace ( or how you want to feel). And you can see yourself writing or typing in a relaxed way. You see yourself asking questions … and then receiving the answers as you type or write in a favorite journal. You see yourself thanking your nonphysical friend(s) at the close of your session.

5) Consider your gifts, your purpose, and how you are specifically designed to interact with the world. Expanding how you see your Self means that you expand how you’re able to interact with the world as well.  Who has an easier time connecting with nonphysical, one who gets why she’s here, knows what her deeper gifts are, and is accustomed to seeing through the eyes of soul … or someone who never creates the space to see how  amazing she really is?  Want my help with that? You’ll find information about that here.

A clear channel, one that’s built on the true nature of personal reality — can receive clear guidance for years to come in any area that matters to you!

6) Watch for interesting signs. Your spirit guides may also give you signs that they’re around. Notice “unusual” occurrences, like repeating numbers, bumper stickers that answer a question you’ve been thinking about, or coincidental and meaningful events, like seeing a brown calico cat with an orange collar staring in your back window, right after you were thinking about a physical or nonphysical friend who loves calico cats, and the color orange.Watch for them, and you’ll start to see them!

As you connect with your nonphysical helpers, and get to know them in deeper ways, consider the words of William Butler Yeats … “There are no strangers here; only friends you haven’t yet met (or “remember”).” Enjoy your discoveries!

Much Love,
