Reaching Guides while meditating

Over the weekend i met with a medium who 'spoke with my guides' ... she said that they wanted me to know that the shapes i see when i meditate is them, and that with practice I should be able to reach them, and that i need to move towards them when i see it.

To elaborate, what I see when i meditate is crown chakra color with black 'shapes' that are continuously moving, like a lava lamp ... so far when i try to look at or focus on the shapes they drift up and out of sight. Sometimes they looks like symbols, but I haven't been able to decode anything yet.

Has anyone experienced anything of this nature ? Would love to hear more about similar experiences...

njbr... There's so much to experience and see in meditation that can't be defined or labeled. Those shapes may be spirit guides, or just energy forms. The purpose of meditation is not to try to figure it all out, but to be present and receptive to whatever we experience. This is how we spiritually grow the best.

If you want to be in communication with your guides you can learn how. Here's a thread about that:

And... if you'll track down posts by Medium Laura in her signature there's a link to her podcasts with guided meditations for that purpose.

Sound advice in my view, meditation is all about having a clear awareness, so taking a "side stepped" view on your experience within the meditation will provide the clarity and you can contemplate any experience after the meditation and draw from it what you need. meditation provides such rewards as time goes by

I see a similar thing when I meditate, coloured shaped that sort of twist and move like a kaleidoscope or a lava lamp like you said (what a great analogy, it is a good way to describe it). Personally I feel that in time these moving shapes could become clearer but I think that clarity will come through more regular meditation than I do currently :P
