Do You Believe in Spirit Guides?

That's interesting. Do you speak to him out loud or in your head? Could you give me an instance of when you felt he's helped you (if you don't mind sharing)?

A close friend of mine (who is a sensitive) told me I have a spirit guide and that I have more than one. This whole spirit-guide phenomena is very very new to me and creating this discussion is my way of finding out about it through other people's experiences, so I thank you for sharing yours. I hear you on the intuition part. My friend told me in order to connect with my guide/s, I need to tap in, ask questions and listen, but I'm there thinking 'well, how can I tell the difference between the voice in my head that I've always had and my spirit guide/s.' Or are they both one and the same? Thanks again for sharing your experience.

If I'm alone, I talk out loud but most times I talk in my head. He usually helps me with little things, like which exit to get off the highway. A couple of times he's given me guidance with some important decisions or he will warn me to calm down with something gets me angry and I'm likely to respond inappropriately. Sometimes it's hard to tell if it's my guide or my intuition that guides me, perhaps a good combination. I don't have any specific stories, sorry. As I said, sometimes I can sense his presence, often he'll stand back and let me do with I'm inclined to do, good or bad but he reminds me of a lesson to be learned there. He's not as strong a presence and I'd like but it seems to be working this way.

OK. Fair enough.

Hi, Thanks for sharing. When you say a physical one, what do you mean? Could you elaborate on that, please? Do you mean a human who you believe is your spiritual guide? If so, do you think there's a difference between a spiritual guide and a spirit guide? In any case, what a fascinating connection you have with this being. Sounds deep. Why are you backing away? Do you not think your experience with him/her is a good/beneficial one?

i do have a spirit guide though, he is a physical one. i met him, and we have a spiritual relationship, even across the distance of miles. his influence is always with me. i think he initiated me into something... i compare what happened to an indian vision quest. it's kind of scary. we are very much vibrationally the same. it's hard to be without him. since leaving, i've had a hard time taking up my nonphysical practices. but i do sometimes. i feel him in my practices if i want to. and in dreams. it's so hard! i don't know what to do. they were so lucid, and it was so hard. they were very emotional. so now i'm backing away. and i'm in a quasi state. thanks for the question!

Hi cripfemme, Thanks for responding. Have you ever personally felt its (their) presence?

I hear you. Interesting. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on that. Take care.

Doesn't sound nuts at all. It boils down to you, your experience and what you believe in. Spirit guide or not, I think your process of writing is pretty cool. :-)
