I often get asked how people can get to know their own spirit guide, so here are a few suggestions that might help you.

Meditation

Begin with a prayer asking for protection and guidance. Then get yourself comfortable, if you prefer, set some gentle music playing in the background, aromatherapy candles can also help you relax, just be sure to choose those that calm and soothe not those that invigorate. Take some deep slow breaths, and calm your whole body, until you feel relaxed. Try to slow down, becoming so relaxed that your heartbeat seems to slow down, withdraw into yourself a little yet be aware. You can't always eliminate normal noises such as traffic or people, but each time you try they will recede further away.

Next imagine a brilliant white light, for me this is in front and slightly to the left, but it can be anywhere, above, below, left or right. Look at this light as it gets brighter, see and feel how pure it is. Now start to draw the light towards you, bring it in towards your heart. Feel it enter and become one with you as it fills your entire being. Feel it's purity and divine brilliance as it touches you from head to foot, sense how vibrant and living it is, it is more than light, more than purity - it's a living energy.

Now create a place to meet and talk with your guide, this could be a beautiful garden, a summer field, a hillside - anywhere. Try to use the same place each time, so it becomes familiar to you. Ask for your guide to join you here. The act of asking him/her to join you keeps you in control.

Don't expect some disembodied voice to suddenly start speaking out of thin air! It doesn't happen, rather, spirit will speak to you in thought, in images and feelings. It's more a case of somehow knowing what is meant, understanding comes from feeling the answers travel through you. In the same way don't force the information, but let it come to you.

Finally, don't be disappointed if you don't hear your guide or build a foundation of learning from them. It's enough to know that you have help around you. Just because your guide can't be heard on a daily basis doesn't mean you can't develop medium ship. They often work in the background and will still assist you in the process.

I do not know whether the concept of Spirit Guides is legitimate, although there are many people, particularly "New Agers" who definitely believe in them and even claim to have channeled a Spirit Guide. I wrote an esoteric novel of Atlantis, and while I wrote, I felt as if I might be channeling a revelation, since the ideas and words which I required seemed often simply to come to me -- as if from the ethers or upon what I imagined might be the Stream of Cosmic Consciousness. Recently, I have been writing a sequel and have sensed the identical method working for me.
If you are sincere in seeking a Spirit Guide, I would suggest that you try automatic writing. Just sit at your computer and record whatever seems to come to you; you may discover that an entity is influencing you, and you may write something interesting. My sister had a UFO experience several years ago, and afterward channeled an extraterrestrial who explained the purpose of that event; she wrote a descriptive journal which is quite amazing based upon what the entity revealed to her. Thoughts are energy exchanged, thus are not subject to the constraints of time and space. Good luck with your Quest!

"Spirit guides" are archetypal forms within one's consciousness. Some people think of them as separate, independent entities, but I think there is a danger in this. Mostly, a spirit guide "feels" like a separate and kind of numinous person, but he/she is really part of your own consciousness but it is OK to paradoxically think the guide is both at the same time (an independent entity and your own mind). This is also can be called a "thought form"--something from our consciousness that takes on a life of its own. People often make their religious ideals into thought forms, so don't get too flustered by responders telling you that you are doing something weird and that you should follow their religious ideas instead. They are doing what you are doing but in a different way and are under the impression that what they are doing is more "real."

Sometimes the guide will feel like a presence, sometimes it will be like an imaginary companion, sometimes you may get insights and messages that feel as if they are coming from something separate from yourself or you many have inner images of your guide. Sometimes you will have wishful thinking and imagine that the messages come from your spirit guide. Sometimes the guide will be more present in your life than others. This is all OK, and I think it's quite common.

It's not OK if you are having auditory or visual hallucinations of your guide or if your guide is telling you to do weird things or if you have compulsive and intrusive thoughts about your guide. That's mental illness.

We all have spirit guides. They are from GOD or Satan. To determine from whom just test what they put into your mind and enter self against the word of GOD. If it does not fix perfectly, precisely, accurately and exactly then beware it is not from GOD.

Stop trying.

Sincerely ask a real question that you need help with. Empty your mind of all thoughts about the he said she said things you normally think about. Maintain this blank mind state for as long as possible.

Practice this daily and soon you will get your answer. It gets easier as you do it.

Love and blessings Don

Never rely on your spirit guide. Rely on your own thoughts if you can tell them apart.
