Your spirit guide isn’t famous

I get sad when beautiful people doubt the presence of their spirit guide because they are’t special or famous enough.

The truth is, 99% of everyone’s guides aren’t famous or accomplished. Most of them were ordinary people who worked hard on their spiritual development, either in their lifetime or later in the Spirit World.

One of the most famous mediums had a Cockney newspaper boy as a guide. Mickey’s cheerful manner was invaluable in bringing messages through for those who came for sessions. You can hear his actual voice here:

Another revered and respected medium, Gordon Higginson, had a little girl and an oriental gentleman he christened Choo Chow.

They had very simple names because Gordon met them as a child. The little girl spirit guide played echo games with him, so she became “Cuckoo”. Listen to Gordon bringing through his guides here.

In each case, the medium named the guide, not the other way round.

There are many other examples of guides either giving a name to be known by or accepting a name given to them. It suggests the guides aren’t as attached to names and identities as we are, and makes you wonder at all the readings designed to give Guide names. Are they just another kind of vanity metric?

Recognise guides by their energy.

Thats a whole lot more confirmation than seeing them, or depending on a name. In the world of psychic development, we learn to trust our feelings first, over images we see. Unless we are really observant, our mind loves to create images for us. It’s what it does, so the old saying ‘seeing is believing’ does not really support us here.

Spirit guide energy feels different than a loved one in Spirit

A guide’s energy feels strong, and it’s easy to confuse since they’ve also been with you since before you were born, so they feel like family in a way.

A guide’s presence may not be visual. But it can 100% be sensed. Much stronger than the presence of a loved one, which could be quite faint.

Trust the feel. Even the Bible talks about it when they say, “By their fruits, you will know them,” which could be interpreted as recognising their energy or vibe.

Your spirit guide isn’t famous

One of the first things to go when we reach the next world is our ego. After a while in the spirit world, we lose all desire of fame or accolades because the real work is helping. Helping ourselves, and helping others. Why do you think spirit guides come to hang out with us? That a lot of selfless services right there.

How to know your Spirit guide

Set aside time to get to know them, and the best way is meditation. Not the cheesy, “meet your guides” meditations found everywhere. Deeper than that.

Not to blame meet-your-guides meditations, but most of the time, are only an experience of the mind. And you might be looking for something a little more lasting and evidential.

Choose regular meditations. It doesn’t matter what, because stilling the mind if the goal. Every time you sit for meditation, it’s like picking up the phone to the unseen realms. Mentally invite the spirit world to join and let go of any outcome.

Then make your energy as receptive as possible. Notice when you feel a presence, if the air shifts or the atmosphere changes. Spirit guides feel really strong and super loving. The second way to know them is by the information they give.

Whether or not the guide is famous doesn’t really matter, compared with the information they give and how it uplifts and inspires your life.
