Coincidences –
When you’re open to your spirit guides they very often send coincidences and synchronicity as a way to let you know that something will be coming up such as an opportunity or beneficial event. It's also their way of saying, "We're here in your life! You're on the right path! Something new is coming up!"
You’ve probably noticed coincidences before, but never paid much attention to them. Well, now you should!
Next time you notice a coincidence don’t just shrug it off. Instead, pay attention to what the coincidence may be telling you. Even if it doesn’t seem to be pointing to a specific message, one thing is for certain, when you experience coincidences something positive will be coming your way!
Music –
Another way spirit guides communicate with us is through music. Like many other people, I believe that music is the language of the soul, and guides can communicate with us easily this way.
You may have something on your mind then go to the supermarket and hear a song playing, or get in your car and turn on the radio, and at that moment the words of the song seem to leap out at you. The lyrics are like an answer to your question or a message you’ve been waiting to hear.
Go ahead and give it a try. Ask your guides a question or ask them for guidance then turn on the radio. See what song is playing. You might get something really meaningful or just plain silly, but don’t consider it nonsense without really paying attention. Maybe you’ll ask something like, “Spirit guides, please send me a message about my current relationship.” You turn on the radio and a song that doesn’t seem to fit is on. Really pay attention and think about the words that you hear, could they be a message? If not, try again later on during the day or the next day. Sometimes it takes awhile before your guides can come through clearly.
Dreams –
Another easy way for guides to contact us is in the dream-state. They very often come into our dreams and send messages and symbols to help us along in our waking life. Or, as in my stories mentioned above, loved ones can stop by to send messages of comfort.
A simple way to connect with your guides or a loved one is to simply lay down in bed at night and before going to sleep ask your spirit guide or loved one to come into your dream and offer a message. Tell yourself that you’ll remember your dream and the message or symbol that was given to you and be sure to make a note of it as soon as you wake up or you’ll most likely forget.
Dream incubation isn’t difficult but it does take time, can be hit-or-miss, and it’s easy to forget your dreams. Still, it’s a simple method and I urge you to give it a try. Over time you’ll get better at it and remember your dreams more and more.
Meditation -
If you really want to make contact with your guides and open yourself up more spiritually then meditation is the way to go. It’s something you have control over and will remember far easier than most people remember their dreams.
So many people never learn to contact their guides or tap into their own higher selves because they feel that meditation is difficult, long and boring. Not at all, but it does take practice.
They’re Always Nearby –
Contacting and working with your spirit guides should be as normal as interacting with a close friend. These beings of energy and immense wisdom are around you every moment, ready to help you in all areas of your life. Learning to make contact and actually recognizing their messages when they come through doesn’t have to be difficult or time consuming.
I think many books and metaphysics teachers try to take something very simple and natural, and make it seem so hard or out of reach that many people give up, thinking they don't have a psychic bone in their body. Nonsense! All it takes is faith, dedication, and a little bit of your time. Very little!
