How Many Guides Do We Have?

If people claim to be a specific Angel, especially if they claim to be an archangel, I'm more cautious of everything else they say. It's ok to resonate with specific angels, as in, hold similar beliefs.. but any more than that is unlikely to be true. There are only a handful of people who have made similar claims that I hold any stock in.. and that's because they provide true insight and awareness in the finer details of how the subtle realms operate. And even here, they haven't claimed to be 'angels' specifically. For the most part, people like the idea of 'being more', because they are more. But they grasp at what they currently understand and make incorrect or far reaching conclusions.

I think that anyone who has a true connection to an angel would no longer need to read any books or study any topic. They would simply 'know' any answer they wanted to learn; and I know people who meet this criteria. It's always fascinating asking the real questions, and getting thorough and detailed responses that go far beyond what you thought could be described.

I would like to know people like that. Explaining me what my role is.

I can't be sure about other people, but I personally think I myself only have one guide/angel. Why? Because only one made me aware of it's existence in a dream, and from then on I noticed there is indeed something in my daily life that answers to the ''code name'' I gave to it (if at least it isn't a different entity trying to fool me by masquerading as this being).

A lot of people here feel lost because they know there's something more to life, that there's something they forgot.. which is a result of the fall we experienced. We're starting to wake up and are going through something of a transition as we reconnect to our divine nature.

Guides and angels are primarily here to help us reconnect with the Light and regain the memories we lost in the fall. They do this partly by way of helping us meet the goals we have for each life.

As such, it's much better for us to direct our attention to reconnecting to the Light and regaining our divinity.

Our purpose in other aspects of our daily life is more aligned to free will rather than destiny.. you decide for yourself, and that will be (has always been) your destined purpose.

Interesting Posts Carnate.

And thank you for the link there. I will be checking that out later.

As far as I am aware I have a number of 3 guides, or guidances.

I do not count angelic beings as guides as I haven't been aware of dealing with them myself.

Currently have 3 human looking guides and the voice of an old man that comes to me while I sleep and dream.

And I believe as others, that they are capable of coming and going.

Actually my main guide came both as a guide and a probable self during meditation. I am not exactly sure what this is supposed to mean as of yet.

So, hopefully the OP got some of the answers they needed within this thread.

Yes. And I do feel that. Also the need for an answer which we probably do not get. Is that what it is? Connecting to yourself and not knowing? Wanting too much there has to be more to it? The human feeling/need to understand everything. You will have to let go of it. I've had part of a kundalini experience. Again something difficult. You always wonder what the goal might be. And maybe we should not.

The thing is also a bit that I find it too easy to integrate all of this in my normal life. That is beautiful because it is so natural.

I've never really had a problem with separating out my spiritual side from friends/family that don't share similar views. It's one of those things that (later in life) just wasn't an issue. I don't feel a need to make comments about these things unless other people bring it up first. And to be honest, even then, I don't go into too much detail.

Having said that, there are times when 'supernatural' activities happen that require some form of explanation. But it's provided in a way that isn't going to cause undue discomfort to the person witnessing the event. And the times where I've had to intercede in relation to bad spirits or for healing (for example), it's always done in a way that aligns with the person's views.. provided it needs to be done with their knowledge at all.

As an example, one guy I know is highly religious, and had been hearing voices since he was a child. When some bad drugs brought the situation to light, he was forced to seek help from doctors and priests, who offered no real solutions... the priests proclaimed that the devil had him, and promptly shuffled him out the door. After hearing about this, I arranged a meeting and discussed the problem in a way that aligned with his beliefs. We did a 'prayer' and told the spirit to move on. Took all of about 10 minutes. And I accept that he has never asked for more details.. and appreciate it when he requests my help with friends who are in similar situations.

In pretty much every case, regardless of the belief-sets people have, there's a way of explaining psychic / supernatural events. Doing so is a matter of respecting the people you are helping; by not forcing your views on them.

I do believe a lot in the respect thing. It does not matter what one believes. A beautiful story about the friend who was religious. It works like that. I am not religious. It is about being open to other ways of thinking. A lot connects.

I had a guide that showed up around the time that my spiritual awakening began, now this guide is more prevalent in my head then my regular guides.

Guides for most people sit in the background and perform their work. Ideally, they want as to make contact with them and get more direct help, but they are restricted in how easily they can communicate with us. If our vibrational state is low, it's difficult for them to 'lower' themselves down far enough to communicate effectively. This is why most people get a feeling or sensation of information rather than actual dialogue or clear imagery. At higher levels, information is passed as a complete 'thought form' that comprises of all pertinent information (inclusive of emotions, sensations, and additional considerations/directions that are relevant).

Also, your guides don't have physical forms like we do. When they present themselves to us, it's often in a way that allows us to identify them by appearance.. because we aren't really tuned to identifying by energy/signatures in our physical bodies. As such, the appearance and gender they take serves a purpose in making us feel comfortable communicating and interacting with them. And at times, there can be a bit of humour in this.

I went (am still going) through a spontaneous kundalini activation (which isn't really a good thing). During one stage, I had an abnormally high sex drive... One of my female guides made the choice to change her appearance to that of an old crone while this overly sexual energy was going through me. It helped me not be distracted as she provided information.
