CONNECTING WITH ANCESTORS & GUIDES #6

OTHER WAYS GUIDES CAN HELP

The hunt for one's destiny is the search of our lives. Stick to the scent, stay on the spoor.

Our spiritual path can mimmik a negative feed back, cybernetic process. We go wrong (or left), then correct and go right. A San Bushman tracking an animal will often lose the track. He will have to double back and attempt to find the next track to go forward which he does. He is not lost he is searching, as are we. The bodies hormonal system down and up regulates on the basis of a negative feedback system as well. Our ancestors help us to navigate but the pathway is not straight and narrow, but convoluted and requires patience. It also best operates with some way of going inward that evokes a parasympathetic relaxation response - one of the reservoirs of our intuition.

The light side of the spirt world will usually attempt to prevent you from making mistakes, but they cannot tell you what to do because of free will. Our guides do not want us to make the same mistakes that they made. They will endeavor to help us avoid them - we have to listen attentively. They have access to our past lives and know our talents and weaknesses. They will try and nudge us in the direction of our core strengths rather than those we may want and that others may have. To strive to be who we are not, is a waste of time and energy. All of us have a talent which we have to find and practice to help heal the planet. This is the path of the hero or heroines in the visionary phase of their lives.

"We are here on earth to help others, what on earth others are here for I do not know." W.H. Auden

If you do not be who you are then, whoever will be?

If we invoke our spirit helpers we can become more of who we are, and we can connect with spiritual phenomena that might otherwise not be available to us.

Synchronicity is farely universal and is an easy way for them to connect and make things happen. What may seem to be a coincidence may be manipulated by our guides to our advantage. They will open doors that are to our advantage but cannot close those that are to our detriment. Because of the cosmic law of free will we have to make our own mistakes. Tricksters can do the opposite and may close doors that are positive and open those that are negative since they do no follow the law of free will. Waking up with the answer to a problem is one way spirit can help without scripting a dream. For those that do not dream they may do it when we are in an awake, relaxed, receptive state. The anwer to an issue can be 'copied and pasted' by them when asleep or awake.

Meditative states, superfluidity and being in the ‘zone’ or a light trance state can allow us to connect more readily with our guides. A sense of 'flow' while doing a task may inform us that we may be using our signature or core strength (Seligman), - a possible key to our true destiny. All of this is enhanced with a dedicated spiritual practice.

Power animals are often manifestations of synchronicity. They are usually not behaving normally and have been manipulated to present themselves to us and give us encouragement or even a teaching. A coyote may be a warning of something negative to come. Because its always in that moment in time we must at least be careful for the next 24 hours. Sometimes the power animal will have a quality that we may require at that time. The animal chosen may be fairly consistent or may vary according to the circumstance as to what is nearby at the time. They are often animals you are attracted to or the deceased loved one cherished.

MANIFESTATION AND IMAGINATION 

To think like God is to imagine. 

Einstein wanted to understand the mind of the Creator. He maintained that his powers of imagination and fantasy meant even more to him than his profound cognitive abilities.

The Field wants to know the context of our intention, which is best done in our imagination and even out aloud. Ask for spiritual or empowering needs rather than material wants unless they may be for the greater good. Your imagination should be in line with your and others' greater good. Its fine to ask something for oneself if its also going to help others. They will handle the context rather than explicit detail of your request to the best of their ability, to keep it in line with your purpose on the planet.

Requests  start with intention, followed by attention to detail in the imagination. We must also do our own bit and take action. The more the intent, passion and will - the greater the power of the response. The 'Field' will reward you for having passion and a strong will.
It may seem a paradox but be

unattached to the outcome!

Non-attachment impies trust and surrender. Attachment has a stickiness to it that might repel, and too much attachment may indicate that one does not trust. One has to believe, let go and have faith in the Field.

As you think it so it can be. As you imagine and believe it so it will be.

It is easier to believe in something if we get ourselves out of the way and its not connected to wants and ego. Our guides live in a non-space-time reality where free will is in the present moment. They exist in the present moment. Hence it is critical for us to affirm, sustain and maintain the request. Are we fickle or fully committed? Do we still want it next week or month? Its fine to change and fine tune the context of our intention. They will handle the details in line with what best for our karma.

Its often a long and difficult journey, and one has to have patience. Things that evolve usually take time to because of the challenge of our being space and time-bound - those in the Field are not. We may have to look back in time to notice the progression. Because its in line with our greater good it may appear differently to what we expected but it should feel better.

One of the ways of experiencing connection is through ‘truth or goose bumps’—when something we say or hear feels profoundly correct, we may experience these bumps from pilo-erection of the tiny muscles in our sweat glands that also give us a sense of our hair standing up. Our guides may have a hand in this but it may also arise from inside of us from one’s higher Self and a deep feeling of inner knowing.

“Everyone has access to God but each person has a different access.” M. Buber

There are other important psychic abilities that one can develop with time, depending on one's unique make up and talents. These include precognition, telepathy, clairaudience, clairvoyance, clairsentience, remote viewing and even channeling or telekinesis. Our guides may have a hand in these as well so it is prudent to acknowledge that the information is coming through you and not from you. Humility helps your practice. Also give gratitude. It is no use striving to achieve skill in one of these when you have no talent for it. We need to find and practice our core strength not focus on what may be the more sexy skills others have that better feed the ego.
