Connecting To Spirit Guides

This morning on my daily walk to the beach, I felt my Dad’s presence.

This is pretty normal for me, he loved the beach, so sailboats, stormy weather, the sun dancing on the water, sunsets and beach birds all remind me of him. But this time instead of just feeling a general presence I felt as if he was telling me it was all okay.

This particular morning I woke up with some anxiety. Usually I love to listen to podcasts and audiobooks on my morning walk (currently listening to Becoming SuperNatural by Joe DisPenza, and love anything Law of Attraction, Quantum Physics, and Human Design related), but this morning, I walked in silence because my mind and body were not able to take in any information. The silent walk was cleansing and as I sat on a rock watching the waves ebb and flow, I got a huge hug from my dog, Lilah, who also reminds me of the late Pete, my Dad’s beloved long haired Dalamation.

Walking back home from the beach, I felt my Dad’s presence and the comfort of his calm reassurance that everything was okay and he was right there with me. I teared up a it.

I realized my anxiety was most likely due to lost of changes recently. In the last 8 months, I moved in with my girlfriend, left my job teaching and opened my own business. This month I got engaged and decided to sell our childhood home I had been holding onto. Without even realizing it, I was probably looking for my Dad’s approval.

I came home and couldn’t shake the urge to get more clarity and reassurance on my life in the moment.

I took out my CELESTITE cluster after looking up what crystal would be best for communication with Spirit. I found Anza / 8th House Studio’s guided meditation called, “Connect with your Spirit Guides” on youtube.

I got my eye mask, my essential oil (currently using Egyptian Geranium), layed down with a comfy blanket and released all expectations.

As my body began to relax, I let go of idea that my spirit guide is my Dad, I have an understanding that our souls don’t stay attached to the look of our physical form in this lifetime, so I was prepared to see whatever it was that came up.

On my way up the portal I felt his presence again and knew it was him. He also looked just like he did when he was healthy on Earth. He joked, “who did you think it was going to be?” when I bashfully walked up to him while trying, although not successfully, to hold back tears.

My Dad told me I have many spirit guides and that he came looking as he did so I wouldn’t be freaked out. He turned and pointed inside a bar behind him. He said, “those are the rest of your guides… Old Bulldog… Scungie… there’s Swipe” pointing to each one, “I think Dr. John is around here somewhere”.

I was really shocked, these were all friends of my Dad’s that did not seem like they would be guiding anyone spiritually.

Then my Dad looked at me with the serious face trying to hide his smile behind his mustache.

My Dad loved irony and situational comedy and for him this was a hoot!

“Your guides are over there, you just can’t see them yet, but they still guide you”, He pointed to some orbs I could see huddled together in a boat. They were peaceful and calm and I joined them on the boat but really just wanted to go back to my Dad. My Dad joked, “maybe she won’t come back”, as we floated away. I nervously told them I really needed to talk to him. They brought me back to him and he laughed again at how serious I was taking everything.

I asked him, '“Dad, what about my life, am I doing it right, am I on the right path?”

“Yup” he said with a mischevious smile.

“Dad! Seriously” I said anxiously, desparately needing clarity.

“You can’t mess it up”, he said. My Dad loved to talk in riddles and also take really long pauses so I couldn’t tell if he was done talking. It gave me a little comfort to hear, he thinks I can’t mess up but I was still unsure about what I should be doing in my life.

“You .. are a … FREQUENCY” he said crytically in his typical style of speech.

I waiting hoping he would elaborate.

I could now see a visual of what he meant, I could see a bright green waving light that was flickering but kept coming back to the bright intense neon green.

“Selling the house will let you to do what your soul is here for… bigger things… “ he looked at me widening his eyes and smerking.

“Trust your energy… be around energies those that support your energy… nothing else matters” he said as he looked off at the water.

He showed me a picture of my girlfriend (now fiance), Stella, on the Riptide, our family boat and winked.

I understood that my soul is always being guided and to listen to it so that it can continue to guide me.

The meditation guided us that we can visit our spirit guides whenever we need them, my Dad chimed in, “YOU… DON’T… NEED… me” and began turning away.

I asked, “BUT WHAT DO I DO NOW?”

He stared at me with a twinkle in his eye.

"REMEMBER… WHO… YOU… ARE….” he said like the catepillar in Alice and Wonderland.

I understood that I needed to continue my deconditioning and self work to get back to myself but I knew I was on my way.

The meditation guided us to see a crystaline box as a gift of protection from our guide.

My Dad said, “oh and there is something for you in my pocket”, I was full of excitement and reached in his front pocket and pulled out a crystal. It was a Smoky Lemurian Himalayan Point I had found in one of my orders that just came from India, the only one like it. It is not perfectly straight and has some rough bits, and it gives me a feeling groundedness and deep calm.

The meditation guided us to come back down to our bodies and my Dad left with a shout, “hey, No having fun!”, which is what he always said as he left us to go have fun without him.

Have you tried connecting with your spirit guides? I would love to know your experiences.

If you want to try it for yourself this is the meditation I used Connect With Your Spirit Guides & Receive Messages and Guidance - Guided Meditation 

I used Celestite for this meditation and Apophllyite Crystals are also excellent for connecting to spirit.

Please excuse any typos or grammatical errors, I type this immediately after my meditation to try and get all the details and then I allow it to show up however it is without going back and trying to change it.
