As far as I know Spirit Guides are the ones to look towards for guidance; they are considered to be best prepared for the role of guiding one through life. Guardian Angels play a more passive role in our lives & are generally not open to communication with us. However to some these terms are interchangeable.
The higher self is something I personally don't acknowledge but again some consider it to be the same thing as a Spirit Guide.

To me Spirit Guides are separate beings from us.

Thanks, Astro.
