Hello,

I'm new to all of this.... quick backstory .I didn't believe in anything until 2006 when my sister died, her death sent me on a journey of where the essence of her went, because looking at her at the funeral home, i remember thinking thats her body, but where did she go, she not in there anymore. In 2021 my mom died, same day as my sister different year. I was besides myself with grief.

A few months ago I received a very clear message from my mom. Since I've been doing guided meditations a few times a day, I really struggled with how I was not able to connect, hear, see, the otherside, like a constant block I was putting up.

Then during meditations about whatever the topic was I would pray about all the gratitude in my life, say the lords prayer etc.

Then one morning I was listening to a meditation, and in my mind I saw a man standing outside my house in clothes I can't really place. He just said 'hi, are you ready to do some work. I interrupted with a immediately yes....then he finished on yourself My response 'f*ck' then yes of course.

Later that night I meditated again, ask if he was God, he said he was a spirit guide named Michael. That night I let go of a very traumatic event in my teens (that I kinda blamed my mom for, that event shifted our relationship for years for a negative, eventhough we never discussed it we were able to have a great moms daughter relationship until she died) but as I worked through the event, I feel a light in my heart and soul with the pain released, and I let go of the anger I had for my mom.

That night I had access to more than just the spirit guide Michael but also a woman that I can't remember her name.

For 3 days after I was mentally exhausted from the interaction, but when I got back into meditation, I can feel a deeper connection to the spiritual side. But I want to reconnect with Michael or the female spirit guide, but again I feel I'm putting up a block, because I'm trying to push my own vision of how to connect.

Does anyone have random advice or meditations or prayers to help me on my journey?

In all honesty, I love being able to connect with my spirit guides, but I really just want to connect with my mom. I didn't hear that night I was able to hear my guides, almost like a panel, but I knew she was there too. After I was so hopeful to be able to just connect with my mom.....but there's nothing. Sometimes o can feel her, and I try to talk to her and I get nothing.

So again long story, I'm my own worse enemy putting up blocks but I would love to talk with Michael, the other woman or my mom.

Thanks in advance!

I'm a bit uninformed to the idea of reaching out to my spirit guide, but the idea's been in my mind for a long time. I'm fully convinced I have one, for a number of reasons I don't feel like getting into. I always go back to the idea of reaching out when going through something rough, but I've never found any success.

Once again I find myself in a point in life where I feel lost and scared. Both because of the present, and my inability to move on from past events. And the reason I can't move on from the past is because I've never found solid proof that the mistakes I've made were okay, I'm always afraid I've hurt someone with my actions.

That's why I want a sign, some way of someone who's watched over me letting me know that "those things were fine, everything was okay". Because most of the things I dwell on are ridiculous overreactions, where i fear my actions had absurd consequences. And I think my own guide could be the one to finally give me peace of mind.

Or once again, am I misunderstanding how guides work? Am I just asking this stuff to make me feel better, or is there some truth to what I'm saying?

I'm going to get straight to the point with this. It's been 4 years since I've tried moving on from a toxic situation enabled by the tarot community's obsession with incorporating and applying the concept of twin flames, soul mates, and divine counterparts. The typical trope of getting strongly attached to an emotionally unavailable person because they never gave you any closure, so I sought out many tarot readings trying to get it and of course I was told that this this was my "soul mate" who would come to me if in "divine timing" but until then, do shadow work and go on a self love journey. Eventually I reached a conclusion after actually doing so much "inner work" that this person just would constantly choose other people over me, and for a connection that's based off of mirroring, it seemed like I was the only person putting in the work in trying to improve myself. I decided to no longer even want him or focus on him despite still thinking about him because the rejection hurt me so much. What I hate about this, more than the person that I'm healing from in the first place, is how my guides handled this situation. I've been on this spiritual journey for 7 years. I connected with my guides frequently. I'm a tarot reader myself. I was constantly seeking readings if I couldn't get the messages from myself on their general guidance to see what I needed to work on or if I was on the right path. These general messages could have been anything but multiple times I've had readers slip in messages about this specific love connection that basically fed me hope about there being potential or an existing future. Me being the young and naive person that I am, I thought hey. I didn't ask for this message but yet it was brought to me so it must be true or important (it wasn't true, and nothing grew from situation). I think about this person less now, it hurts less, but the pain is still there. Why I am here typing this right now is because my guides have made it seem like I was being delusional about this situation and it feels like I'm being gaslighted because they've had every opportunity to tell me the truth about the situation or to at least give me guidance on how to move on and they didn't. They are very connected to my life and their presence is undeniable. But I can't help but side eye them because as much as miracles have existed in my life and their guidance has helped me out tremendously. There are too many times where things have gone completely wrong because they've told me that something that was particularly supposed to be good for me, just didn't end up happening at all, and it feels like they blame me for believing them for what they say and I just don't get it. I don't want spirit guides who have to make everything a test. I understand not being dependent on divination but there are three major situations that have hurt me badly (they weren't all love related) and they never once gave any explanation. I'm sick of that, and I'm sick of feeling like they're being condescending towards me about the situation when they've told me in readings (through other readers) multiple times unprovoked, about this person being the one for me. Even though I eventually ignored those readings despite those messages keep repeating, and I have grown more independent and connected with myself, I just can't trust them anymore. I don't want to. I really just want to separate myself from tarot all together. What's crazy is the moment I decided to give up not connecting with them anymore and even being a reader because I no longer believe in the shit I channel, to making this post, someone immediately booked a reading with me 🥲 I'm sorry if this is all clobbered up I'm just emotionally not well because im tired of the confusion, I don't care how much I've grown past it, it just feels like I could still do the same thing for myself without being involved with spirituality anymore.

Just curious about how you all go about connecting to you guides? Do you have a lot of rituals/meditations you use? Are their specific things you do to put yourself in a place to connect? Or are they just kinda always there and easy to access?

Mine are always there and I feel like I can almost always connect to them by just asking questions and listening. It’s super accessible. Not voices in my head. Just paying attention to what thoughts arise and letting them flow. When I’ve described my process to people I’ve been told it sounds like claircognizance. I’ve done a lot of work to get to this point but not really through specific ritual or anything. Just a broad range of self work, and creative practices, plus tarot and pendulums when I want more confirmation, to get to a place where I can listen and trust what comes through.

But I just realized I don’t know much about how other people experience them and I’m super curious.

Lately I've been trying to manifest my SP As I've been detaching and accomplishing my goals I keep seeing scorpions everywhere, especially when I'm upset or angry. I was literally standing right next to one barefoot and it didn't even raise its tail at me or feel threatened. It just stood there. Has anyone had an experience like this before

Hello! This is my first post and also my first experience with spirit guides!

I felt pulled to reach out to spirit guides because I kept seeing 444 like a ridiculous amount of times, and I'm going through a life transition and would like some support. I set my intentions for contacting a spirit guide and used tarot cards to flesh things out. It was really amazing! There was a very clear vibe set throughout the reading and so many strong connections were being made throughout the cards. I was even using two different decks, and had the same card come up in two different spreads in a way that was very strongly connected.

My impression is that this guide can help me fulfill my dreams. I'm struggling a lot with feeling unmotivated and stuck, and I love that this guide gave the impression that they can help me achieve a really good life for myself.

So my question is: whats next? I have an established vibe, I made a connection I feel comfortable with (I'm an ex-catholic so I am easing into some of the more intense new age spiritual practices lol), and I'd love to start taking steps on this journey together, but I just don't really know what to do. I know a lot of spirituality is going with personal vibes and doing what feels good and comfortable, but any pointers at all would be SO great, because I don't want to waste the opportunity the way I feel I've wasted others in the past.

Should I ask the guide through tarot what I should do next? Can I ask them to help me feel more motivated?

Thank you for all your help! <3

Was walking out the door tonight when I accidentally kicked this little fellow in the face😳 what’s a spiritual meaning of a toad? Or a frog lol idk the difference.

Hi, this is my first post in this reddit. I had a reading about a year ago with a psychic for my guides. I feel like I have since been really getting to know and connecting with most of them. My guide with the blue eyes especially (he is the sweetest) but there is one that has been kind of distant/ I have been having trouble figuring out.

He is a cloud man with like a cloud head who keeps this kind of filing cabinet of information. The color light he gives off is white, and I was told that he is really like fluid. He also likes to give me signs through music. My other guides I could find people talking about similar type guides that I could kind of bounce off of or put me on the right path to learn about them. But I feel like no matter what I search I can't find much on this guy. Is there anyone with a similar type guide that could give me some advice or you know some kind of jumping off point.

Hey guys i'm new to the sub.

I was curious to know what are the main characteristics of a spirit or guide in a dream? How can you tell the difference between a spirit and just a random dream character?

I had approximately 5 or 6 vivid dreams I had cancer, then receiving a diagnosis 6 months later. Could it bepossible my guides were sending me this message?

Hi there, hoping someone can help me sort this through. I've been told by various readers that I would lose my job, and that my spirit guides told them I would. One even gave me a date of when I would lose my job. She was so sincere, even described some things about me that she would have not known on her own. She told me that my spirit guides told her that me losing my job is actually to protect me. It did not happen. I did not lose my job. I decided to try a different method, astrology, and an astrologer told me it's no job loss at all for me (My manager reinforced this, I am actually "untouchable" but that's another story). Now I am wondering, who are these spirit guides that the tarot readers are actually communicating with, and why do they keep lying on me? I know I know, some tarot readers are fake, but I don't get why the message is so similar or the same? If it's not my spirit guides, how do I protect myself from them (and their lies)? Do I need to try to ask them to reveal who they actually are and their purpose?

Thank you.

I don’t live in an area where foxes are incredibly, incredibly, rare but I have seen about 30 just this summer which is a beyond unusual amount. And in the past 2 years I’ve seen at the least 100 of them. And this is spread out over 100s of miles, urban, suburban and rural areas. And through every season. And when I do see them it’s almost always on my left. And they are always the red variety. (Which is kind of funny because I have red hair.) I’m just wondering what this communities take on this will be. It’s certainly extremely bizarre and in asking multiple people I live around, people that I’m friends, with or people who come around the places as I do, they’ve all told me they have seen a fox once maybe twice in their entire lives. And after having looked into it in my state there hasn’t been any crazy habit loss or overpopulation or anything like that. I do feel kind of a pull towards foxs always thought they were very beautiful animals.

Hi everyone! My kundalini recently rose and with that came some kriyas, and also many sensations in my body. I thought these were messages from my guides, and this was confirmed yesterday when I got an Akashic records reading with a lady I know. I asked what could I do to communicate with my guides better and her first reaction was: woah, it’s hard! They don’t tell you things through words, only through sensations in your body. As an example, I feel a lot of energy in my solar plexus and spasms there when I ask questions.

So I want to ask if anyone here communicates through their bodies, and how do you interpret those messages? I know it’s mostly about feeling all these things and not overthinking anything, but if you’ve got tips, it would be great!

I think i almost Ap’d but instead i ended up lucid dreaming or something lof the sort? I feel like i could see places clearly but i don’t know even then what it was. I did go through the vibration phase and before that i heard knocking. I head three knocks then two then a bark . I wonder if this is a warning from my spirit team? Along the dream i was jumped by some entity that wouldn’t leave. I saw a distorted picture frame of a face and out of dumb curiosity i guess i decided to go down the stairs and then the heaviness was on the back of my head . I slowly came back i think for a minute i was in sleep paralysis or something. Im just thinking maybe my spirit team doesn’t want me to AP?

Oftentimes, people in the New Age movement mention that everything is frequency. If this is true, why can't we contact higher dimensions by dialing higher frequencies into an AM/FM receiver?

I am asking this question because I am desperately trying to find a way to connect with my spirit guides without relying on methods that feel ungrounded, like channeling, meditation, or automatic writing—methods that always involve me or others and could introduce potential errors.

If there were a way to send out a voice signal like, "Dear spirit guides, you didn't help me the last time I broke up; screw you," and hear a response from the other side, like, "F*ck you, pal," it would be undeniable. Every shadow of doubt would be immediately removed.

Instead, we have to rely on unscientific and unconvincing methods for making contact, which is frustrating.

Hi friends! This is my first time posting here. I’m new to the world of spirit guides, and I want to do some reading on it. Does anyone have any book recommendations that would be helpful for a beginner?

Is it possible to make contact with you spirit guides through a ouija board?

Years ago, my sister and I used to use a ouija board often to connect with who we were told were our guides. Mine was a bit harder to make contact with than my sisters, but the first time we made contact with her, we got her name. She spelled out "Boudica". I was not familiar with this name, however, my older sister knew of a Boudica the ancient British queen.

I alway err on the side of skepticism, so I'm unsure if this was truly my guide we were communicating with or just a trickster. If anyone on this sub is able to sense my guide, would you be able to help me find out if this Boudica is really my guide, and was the Boudica i was talking with thee Boudica??

Thanks!

I have recently begun getting into trying to contact my spirit guides and just in general be more mindful, spiritual, and trusting in the universe. I feel like I’m seeing signs from them, but I’m just not sure if it’s all in my head and I’m seeing what I want “to see”. I would be very thankful if someone could chat with me! I can explain more in depth as well!

I've heard that some guides will exchange their roles with another guide that suites you better if things aren't working out, or if you've evolved past the lesson or energy they initially had been there to help you with.

Do you guys have any experiences with this? Have you heard of guides leaving for this or that reason?

So, today I went to a restaurant to get a sandwich. I get inside, pay for my sandwich (which includes a bag of chips) and a drink. Well, I get my drink and sandwich but. I forgot my chips completely. I just came out of school so I was tired and it just slipped my mind. As I was getting in my car I heard the phrase "packaged chips", in my head. But it didn't sound like my thoughts, it was clearly from another source. Because I wasn't thinking about anything and I heard some stuff before the "packaged chips", that I couldnt make out. Like a radio trying to tune into a station.

And I went "oh yeah, I did forget those, oh well, screw it". (I have social anxiety). If it weren't for the voice though, Id've never thought of it again. Maybe this was my guide? Idk.

Good day. I have a question regarding two experiences I had.

The first experience it hasn't happened within the last 2 years but before when I'm walking occasionally I heard my first name being called. I'd look around to see if another person around was talking to me but I didn't see anyone. What could this mean? Spirit Guides?

The 2nd experience was a dream, in the dream I was in a vast land and it was very beautiful. The buildings where made out of crystals, I felt in peace there. I did have a thought that I can't quite remember but was along something about needing to fulfil my purpose here on Earth. And than the dream suddenly ended and I woke up.

Does anyone know what these experiences meant? And any advice what else I should do if I have these experiences in the future.

The spirits of lost pets be your spirit guide? Because my dog has sent signs a lot. A cabbage moth here, a dragonfly, bees, etc.

Feathers on ground And other day baby ladybug (although was the biting kind of larvae :-( )

Or I am blocking myself from seeing it? I started a meditation trying to open myself up to meet my guides and was quite surprised by what I saw. They did not have human shape or form, and they only let me see pieces of them. One only let me see hooves, (I could sort of tell it was either an ox or goat or something), and a piece of jewlery it was wearing. Another one let me see only flashes from like the waist down and it almost looked like a dress made from feathers but it kept flashing between body/dress and what looked like bird feet of some kind. I occasionally will see one large eye for both of them, but not enough to see exactly what kind of animals or being. I did see one that let me see it’s face but I admittedly got quite scared as it sort of looked like a white/pearlescent dragon, and I just was not expecting to see anything like that so I panicked a little and pulled out of it. Is it normal to not have any human looking guides? I thought maybe I would see an ancestor or something like that. These entities also didn’t use words at all, only symbols and pictures. Oh and they’re all absolutely massive.
