So for months now, I've been trying to locate my spirit guide via a meditation induced, mental journey. The method I'm using is pretty much meditating and then visualizing this really long walk to a special place. In this special place I close my eyes, and wait to join hands with someone, and when I open them its my spirit guide. Except when I get to this place, no one ever shows up :( Any theories on what I could be doing wrong? Or just helpful suggestions?

We all have ability to contact spirit guides or in other words I can say finding spirit guide is possible.
I do prefer mantra meditation to make contact to your spirit guides.The first step is to be mentally prepare, we need a strong desire to achieve this aim, set up your environment have a glass of water near you, dim your lights, wear your high energy crystal and protection jewelry , disconnect ringer of your telephone make sure that no disturbance is going to happen during entire course
The 2nd step is to read the signs your spirits guides give you.it may be a TV commercial it may be a sound .
do not rush the process, give pause in between in each step , it’s important that have zero exceptions
.3rd and most important step is to raise your vibration and attune by chanting (om) this sounds like: AaaaUuuuMmmm.
There are some jewelry/stones that are especially beneficial for this purpose. The use of most of the high energy stones will help.
Dear Terra Prat,
I can share with you some good tips about how to meet your loving spirit guides in a vision quest. I have over hundreds of spirit guides and have mastered third eye vision, I'm sure that with practice, soon enough you will have your first beautiful experience.
First of all, disregard what everyone else here has told you for now, take it all with a grain of salt, honestly these people do not sound very knowledgable about the subject of the vision quests.
Even if you are naturally clairovoyant, it takes a great deal of practice to master vision questing. This is why it is a 'shaman's' gift, it is a magical process.
Meditation is great for a healthy lifestyle, it has no place in spirit guide communication or psychic abilities though, because it does the opposite of open your mind and strengthen the magical qualities of your imagination, it will suppress your magical abilities. Meditation has never been a spiritual practice, it is simply a way of life that stems from Buddhism, which is not a spirituality, Buddhists are usually athiests actually... This is why many people that come on these forums cannot vision quest - they are too focused on shutting off their imagination and magical abilities. Think of your imagination as the pathway into the magical realms. When you were a child, maybe you had more psychic abilities than you do now, that is because when we are children we are much more open, sensitive, intuitive and our imaginations are so strong that we can easily see things most other people cannot see.
You should understand that Visualization, Relaxation and Meditation are all different.
Meditation is used to still the mind, to be in the moment, to be zen, and to seek personal enlightenment, which is bliss.
Relaxation techniques serve no other purpose other than being used to bring the body and mind into a state of calm and relaxation, which is good for a lot of things ultimately.
Visualization is the magic practice of vision questing, strengthening your daydreaming, your imagination, the creative power of the mind and ultimately once one masters the ability to visualize, they will also master third eye vision/ clairovoyance.
If you really want to meet your spirit guides and explore unimagined realms you have to use Visualization and stop doing the meditations as much as possible because limiting your mind and putting restrictions on your thoughts and imagination will also limit your magical abilities. I'd be wiling to bet the book you read was referring to relaxation, rather than meditation to start out with.
It is wise to first do some relaxation techniques to calm your mind and body before visualization.
Apparently this book did not tell you that it takes much practice hehe. Before you ever try to attempt to meet your spirit guide in visualization, you have to first master visualization itself. If you haven't mastered the ability to see imagined things, you will not be able to see unimagined things.
First things first, you need to relax and then daydream about a imagined beautiful place in nature. I want you to practice mastering all of your physical senses in this imagined place you are creating.
1. What do you see? Are you in a forest, do you see pebbles on the ground, do you see waves crashing onto the shore in the distance? Most importantly, you need to practice sight in visualization by imagining scenery as much as possible.
If things do not look clear to you, there are two techniques you can use. A) Focus on staring at an object until you regain control, until your surroundings look solid and real, without any haze, blurriness or unrealistic sights. B) Go with the flow, stay calm and simply walk along in your vision until you see something else.
2. What do you hear? You need to be able to imagine hearing sounds around you in the scenery you are imagining. Do you hear the waves crashing in the distance? Do you hear the birds cawwing in the forest? Do you hear your footsteps on the ground?
3. What do you feel? You also need to be able to feel things. Do you feel the texture of the sand as you pick it up in your hand, do you feel the rough texture of the tree bark, do you feel the wind against your forehead, does the sun feel warm or is it cold out?
4. What do you smell? Pay attention to smells, can you smell the pine of the forest, the smell of fresh rain, the smell of sea mist, the smell of dirt?
You have to master ALL 4 senses or else you will never be grounded within a visualization, which means you won't be able to communicate to your spirit guides until you get really good at these things.
If you jump ahead and try to meet your spirit guides before you are ready, you will not see them, your imagined scenery will immediately get all blurry and your spirit guides will appear invisible, or even like blurry streaks, or they will apear to have no faces because you haven't given yourself a good foundation to be able to see things that are actually real. If you aren't naturally psychic and clairovoyant there is no getting past the point of practicing visualization before you jump ahead to actually meet your spirit guides.
So try all types of visualizations before hand. Here are some great ideas for things you can imagine to strengthen your psi abilities for attempting spirit guide communication. Imagine a special sacred place that only you can go in, dream up your ideal fantasy home, try to remember and imagine actual locations you know as perfectly as possible, look at your surroundings around you, close your eyes then try and remember everything that is around you, create cool aura sheilds for yourself, etc...
Then, after a lot of practice you will be able to meet your spirit guides by doing the exersize you first mentioned. You can do it in anyway actually, it doesn't matter where you imagine yourself meeting them. You can even imagine yourself meeting them in a fast food restuarant for all they care, just be warned that as soon as you do meet them, anything can happen, they might give you a big hug, they might drag you somewhere excitedly, your scenery will most likely change, they might want to show you all sorts of things and you might have to tell them to slow down if you are not feeling ready for it all or if you do not understand some things they are telling you.
It will take some adjusting as you realize the slight but obvious difference between what is imagined and what is not imagined. Your spirit guides will be very happy to see you and if you have more than one, they might all come to you at once.
So it is also important to notify them that you are coming to see them and that you probably only want to see one spirit guide at a time to limit confusion, at least while you are just beginning.
It's always nice to put some peaceful relaxing music on. My spirit guides love music, and they get all excited and love to dance around with me and have fun.
When you do feel yourself slipping and things start to become blurry, simply go back to the basics of what you learned for visualization. Focus on one thing, or just go with the flow until you regain clarity somewhere else. It is never really good to try and freak out and force anything. If your spirit guide is telling you something important for example, and you start to drift out, don't freak out at yourself, it's all good. If it's really that important they will be very patient with you and will work to help you figure it out. From here on, your spirit guides will likely teach you the tricks of the trade. There are some important tricks to be learned, like you will eventually understand how to teleport from point a to point b without even knowing your destination, it will all eventually become easy for you with practice.
But you have to remember that even people who are natural clairovoyants do a lot of work to perfect their skills, it is not just something you can expect to happen over night. You have to be very weary of the the messages you get at first, because it does take a lot of experience to know the difference between your mind and what they are truly saying.
Visualization is almost exactly like an OBE/LUCID DREAMING/Astral travel, however it is so much better because you have so much more control over it and do not have to be asleep. As you perfect your abilities, you will be able to use your sight to travel to any dimension, to any planet, to any place in the world, to see your loved ones who have passed on, to learn from ascended masters across the galaxy, to meet all of your spirit guides and to do anything you could even imagine.
Hopefully some of these things help you out. They should.
If you want an even easier way to communicate to your spirit guide, you can talk to them telepathically.
Simply get out a pen and paper. Ask them a question. Write down the FIRST thought that comes to mind, and that is your answer :)
You don't want to write down the second or third thought, because those are just your own mind analyzing the real answer. If you are ever unsure about your answer, ask again. You'll get the hang of it. Telepathic thoughts that are from them eventually end up sounding like their own voices, like they have accents or somethings, ends up not sounding anything like your own thoughts. Also try to pay attention to any other images or feelings you might recieve in response and write those down too.
It might happen that you get two thoughts at the same time.
For example if I ask my spirit guide, "Is the sky blue?" I will get both Yes and No as an answer at the exact same time, that happens because sure it is blue during the day, but right now it's not because it's nighttime... As you are beginning, this might not happen. They might try to keep it as easy as possible for you, but I know for me, my spirit guides like me to embrace truths to everything, not just one thing, so they tell me more than I need to know.
But if you do get two answers at once don't fret thinking you are being tricked by anything or that your mind is interfering, it simply means you asked a question that has two sides to the answer.
Thanks so much for all the suggestions. I will remember all your advice and try all your suggestions.
Live to serve.
Its looks like you are expecting way to much...
Progress in spirituality is all about just living in the present moment and not expecting anything at all, thats how i made progress.
Some people also have spirit guides that look like animals, it is just you representaion of what you know has the best influence on you.
if that makes any sense XD...
Hello Terra.If you're unable to connect with your spirit guide then there's no need to worry at all. Actually there could be more than one guide. Meditation is a good and a well known method to make contact with them because, the spirit guides exist in the higher frequency spaces and when your frequency level matches to that of theirs, then the contact is made. Spirit guides could be anyone or anything; like an archangel, ascended master, or a stone (crystal), tree, animal or a different specie from an other dimension etc.
You could even ask someone to be your spirit guide by just asking them to do so. For example Archangel Michael, jesus, buddha or just anyone else, they will be more than willing to help you out.
Other thing to make note of is that they are always with you. All you need to do is just call their names or just think of them and you'll be surrounded with them. Now the key is to understand the way they send their messages out to you. It could be in the form of numbers, colours, music, intuition and if your frequency/energy levels are up to the right level then you could hear them talk to you also. Also, you can even sense their energies or vibrations if you have the ability to sense the energies around you. You could also see them too if the right frequency/energy level conditions are met.
One of the ways by which you could increase your frequency/energy levels is by opening your 7 major energy centres (also known as chakras) of your human body.
I don't understand how I could just ask for someone to be my guide? Or how I can just call their names if I don't yet know who they are.
Say that if you know the names of any ascended masters or archangels or any other well known spiritual figure like jesus. You could just make an affirmation like this " Archangel Michael please be my spiritual guide and guide me throught my spiritual journey". (this was just an example)
There's no problem again if you don't know their names. In this case you could make an affirmation such as "My spirit guides from the higher dimensions of light, whoever you're please be by my side and guide me". During the initial phase you should make an effort to understand how they're communicating with you. Or if you improve on your physic abilities, communication with them would be far more easier.
I'd rather say you to concentrate on your inner work, clear out all the negative energies/blocks and raise your vibrations/ frequency levels. This way you'll automatically be contacted by your guides.
Ok. I'll try that. Thanks so much for all of your help :)
You're Welcome. :)
