Spirit
Guides/Angels
My personal belief a spirit guide or angel as they are sometimes
known as, is a Spirit of someone who watches over us, helping
and guiding us through our lives. I believe we have more
than one guide and that they change at different stages in our
lives.
When
I was about 18, I made an appointment to see a medium.
I arrived
at her home for the appointment and was taken upstairs to a small
bedroom. It had a nice warm feeling to the room. There were lots
of sketches of people on the wall and two chairs opposite each
other. I was asked to sit down and make myself comfortable. She
sat opposite me and I waited for the reading. After a few minutes
I began to 'see' a nun kneeling at my feet, with her hand upon my
lap. I couldn't actually see her in a solid form. It was like a
picture in my mind but somehow knowing where she was in the room. I didn't say anything to the medium as I had just thought it was
the 'atmosphere' of the room.
Just at that moment the medium said "You don't really need me
you know. You can already see your guide" I said I couldn't, so
she carried on describing who I could 'see', before continuing
with my reading.
I couldn't remember much after
the session as I had
been so taken a back by her description. I had seen what I now
know to be spirit but had never had confirmation like that.
This
was my first experience of a spirit guide. I didn't really
understand why a nun would chose me as I don't think we would share the
same beliefs, but perhaps as she was spirit the religious side
would not be the same as on earth.
I felt her presence from time to time and would
sometimes meditate to see if I could communicate with her. Meditation is easy and can be very uplifting.
After
my father passed over, I attended a meeting in Essex where I saw
psychic artist Ivor James. I didn't get picked from the audience
but was very interested in his drawings so arranged for him to
come to my home.
I was really excited on his arrival. There were about twelve of
us all waiting to see if he could make contact with spirit
for us.
He began
to draw for each member as he gave messages. When it got to my
turn I sat concentrating on my dad in the hopes he would make
contact. Ivor began to draw. Slowly I could see that he was
drawing my spirit nun. I was so disappointed. I made some remark
about why she had wanted to be drawn, although I can't remember
exactly what I said. Ivor immediately stopped drawing, looked at
me and said "You've already seen this lady, this is
confirmation"
He was really annoyed with me. However, I guess
this was probably what I needed at that time, after all my dad had
already given me signs he was ok.
That happened a
few days after my dad’s funeral,.
A friend and I were travelling
to visit my cousin. It was a Friday night, our spirit night as we
called it. As we
draw up outside her house. I suddenly felt my dad's presence,
whilst at
the same time the car seemed to become engulfed with the smell of
flowers. "Have you got some flowers in here?" my friend
asked. Without thinking my reply was "Oh it's only my
dad".
The car door swung open and Sharon was out of the car
before it had stopped. My cousin opened the door to us and said
"Hello Jackie, Hello Sharon, oh hello Uncle Jack. Sharon
asked why she had just said that and Lynn replied I don't know for
a split second I thought he came in behind you. So I guess my dad
had already made contact.
I still have the sketch of my nun. I later found her to be called
Sister Maria, who lived in Ireland while on earth. She sits in my bedroom watching over me,
although I do not feel her in my life very much. now.
I believe as many other people do that Spirit Guides change
during your life time. They come to help and teach
with various lessons in life. Apart from my nun I have had
various guides, at this time I have a Native American .
I'm afraid I tried to ignore him quite a few times at first, as
I feel too many people claim to have American Indian's.
But anyway he is here. His name is something like Bishma
or Bishkmo. I can't quite make it out. He has
been with me for about 9 months now, which maybe why I
suddenly decided I needed to join a drumming circle and buy a
Native American Flute last year. I am still trying to find
out more about him and the life he lived when on earth.
These experiences lead me on the path I am on today. I have sat
in development circles on and off for over 20 years, and
continue to learn and grow every day.
I now run my own development circles in Kent and try to help people
discover their own psychic abilities.
