Going deeper when connecting with spirit?
We discussed connecting with spirit by using our breath, Let’s discuss how to go deeper and know which angel is present. Asking questions so we can receive guidance from our angels and spirit guides. Let’s go deeper and make better connections.
Our breath is our connection to our higher self, the angels, and even our loved ones. Once you have gotten comfortable with doing a simple meditation to clear your mind so that you can be an open and clear channel. Say a simple prayer to open the door to communication, you can say something like “Thank you God for opening the door to communication, we know the words spoken and healing received is for our highest good and filled with your love.” Now, let’s understand what it is you are experiencing so you can go deeper with your loved ones and angels. You are focusing your breath and relaxing your conscious mind so that you can allow yourself to connect with spirit. You may have noticed a few things when doing this. There may be a change in the energy in your immediate space, you feel a change in temperature, it is cooler, or warmer. You get a tingling sensation on your skin. You may actually feel someone holding your hand, stroking your hair, touching your face. These are all real sensations; you are not imaging this. Some of you may also smell a familiar sent or see a flick of an image in your mind, hear a word or phrase spoken by a departed loved one. You may even see a series of pictures, like a little movie playing in your head. These are all ways that spirit and the angels connect with you.
I think it is important at this time to also mention that sitting quietly taking deep breaths and connecting to our subconscious mind this is just one way to connect. It may not be the best way for you. We all have different ways to communicate in the physical world. Some prefer speaking in person rather than on the phone. Maybe you like to text so you can get your thoughts out uninterrupted. You know you are able to express yourself better before lunch, so you schedule all your important conversations in the morning. The same is true for connecting with spirit, so experiment what works best for you. Many people find the morning is better than evening to connect. Some will want to dance and sing first; others may connect better after a brisk walk or even a run. Do what works for you, just like you would when trying to communicate in the physical world. There is no right or wrong way to do this, what is important is that you are comfortable and at ease when connecting. Also, some have described meditation as the response to our prayers. Let me explain, you pray or journal and ask for guidance. You send out your questions to God, or Source. Asking when will my life improve? When will I meet my soul mate? Will I get that promotion? and then you go on about your day. The next day you do the same and the day after and the day after, waiting for something to happen. meditation is the stopping and waiting for a response. Just like any conversation, you speak then you listen. When we want to communicate with spirit, we have to take our turn to listen. Which means you have to ask questions.
You have done what you need to in order to connect with spirit, angels and maybe even a guide. You sense someone is with you, but who is it? Ask them, ask for a name? It is that simple. Ask for a name, and what comes to your mind first is the answer. I know, now you think, this is crazy, I want to speak with my grandmother so that is why I heard her name. So, ask for an image, or a memory that the two of you share. Spirit wants to connect with you, they want you to know they are there. Trust that the name you heard was from them, the memory that popped into your mind was them sending it to you. Some of us are going to be receiving information right away. Others, like myself, it takes a little longer. Maybe you didn’t receive a name you recognize, instead you saw a color. Ask who is this? Notice if you are sensing any other sensations in your body. What do you see in your mind, hear in your thoughts, or maybe you just know. There are many articles and videos introducing you to angels and how they connect with us. Remember they are just guidelines; Archangel Michael may appear to you differently. I feel Archangel Michael as a tingling in my calves. Why? because I ask Michael to protect me and keep me grounded. So I feel this in my legs standing firm on the ground, I will also just know it is Archangel Michael who is there. For a client he came in very, very big. I told her this, I know it is Michael but he’s huge. She laughed and said yes that is how he shows up for me. Again, there is no right or wrong way, right it down so you can keep track of your experiences, ask questions and have a conversation.
Finally have fun. You are in control; you open the door to communication and when you are finished you close the door as well. You are in charge not spirit. You can tell them I don’t want to communicate from 8pm to 8am that is when I wish to rest. Maybe you want to connect in the evening because you are working during the day, let them know. When you are finished, always thank whoever has shown up for you. Thank them for sharing in the sacred space you have set up to meet with them. I usually will say a prayer noting the door is closed and I no longer wish to communicate. For example, I may say Thank you Archangels Michael, Raphael, Jesus and Padre Pio for opening this sacred space with me. Please close the door so that I may rest and be restored physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. Thank you for your love and Guidance, the door to communication is now closed until I request it be opened. You can say this prayer or one of your own.
With Light and Love always,
Deirdre
