Spirit guides are non-physical beings that have previously incarnated here on Earth. Find out how they can assist you in your day to day life.

Have you ever thought your were all alone in the world? You are not alone at all. Your guides are always with you, whether you recognize them or not, and if you allow them into your life can become a great resource. They may even help you make sense of repeating numbers.

Who’s on Your Spirit Guide Team?

Everyone is born with spirit guides attending to them. You chose a team of guides before you incarnated and brought each one of them on board when it was necessary throughout your life.  Most of your guides are in place by the time your reach early adulthood.

You incarnated with the assistance of several guides, each of whom have lived many lifetimes here on Earth. This time they are not incarnated, but have been asked to use their wisdom to help you along your path. It is just another aspect of incarnation. It is the ability to be able to see how things work from the other side. Spirit guides are not “better than” you or “above” you, they just have much more wisdom and life experience than you currently do.

The Voices of Wisdom and Reason

Your guides are the voice of wisdom and reason. They would never say anything to put you in harm’s way or force you to do anything against your will. Spirit guides will give you matter of fact responses, which are usually short and to the point and can be quite humorous or serious.

They are infinitely patient and will go to any length to bring you ideas to assist you in your questions and struggles. Your personal guides will never give you information that is out of alignment with your highest path and purpose.

Your guides will tend to speak to you in terms of energies. They do not necessarily understand linear time or terms like money and jobs. They see a much larger picture, one that is not affected by limitations such as time or things we see as finite, like how much money we have or how long a job is going to be there for you.

They are much more invested in your whole soul and I believe they sometimes wonder why we here on Earth worry so much about the smaller things. That is why they are around, to help us remember who we are at soul level and our reasons for incarnating in this lifetime, including our life lessons.

Your Inner Circle

You have an inner circle of guides and an outer circle of guides. The inner circle is comprised of your personal guides and who you should turn to for the everyday questions of life. They are in communication with the outer circle, which is made up of angels and Ascended Masters, which help much larger groups of people.

You may communicate directly with the outer circle of guides if you so desire, but they will give you answers that serve much larger groups of people and won’t necessarily be specific to you to your question about your relationship, fore example. That is what your inner circle of guides are here for, to guide you thought the daily life questions.

Your Primary Guide

You are born with one guide, your primary spirit guide. This guide is with you from birth to death and will never leave you. In most cases, this is the guide that will become a spokes-guide for the group and be the one that you communicate with the most.

Your Guide Team

As you get older you “hire” other guides as needed. As a child you don’t need to make a lot of decisions, but as you enter your teenage years and early 20’s most people will hire on additional guides at that point. You hire on more guides as you accept more responsibility in your life and begin to go out into the world on your own.

Your guides are there to help you navigate the life areas you don’t have much experience with yet at that point. Most individuals have on average anywhere from 4-6 guides on their spiritual team. Other types of guides could be for relationships, health issues, finances, family, and more. Each person has a unique group of guides.

Contacting Your Spirit Guides

If you wish to begin developing a stronger connection to your own guides, one way is through automatic writing.  You can also use a guided meditation.
