Connecting with your spirit guides

Hello, before I go on and about the information here, I just want you to know that I am sharing knowledge coming from a book called “The Witches Way”, published by Leanna Greenaway and Shawn Robbins :) It’s particular penchant is mainly Wiccan, but the books purpose it serves is a guide to modern-day witchcraft. I’m here to divulge information for our fellow beginner witches, who are still educating through their practice and journey, just like the majority of the witches that mentors and teaches. Although, this posts purpose is probably not aimed to how to start getting into your spiritual journey, but it could be something you’d want to learn later on. I hope you understand. But of course, I’ll post the essentials about how to start and where to start. Keep on learning little witchlings!! <33

Your guide will never want to frighten you, so it is unlikely that they will suddenly appear before your eyes in the cold light of day. To reach a successful connection, you must be prepared to experience a deeper level of consciousness. It can take a lot of practice to perfect, and only when you are at an advanced state in the meditative process can you begin to see visions.

These will usually occur when you are in the middling stage between sleep and wakefulness or in the moments before you wake up. You might also want to keep a motepad and pen next to your bed, as it is common to be told relevant information in dream sleep.

From Leanna Greenaway/Shawn Robbins, „Over the years and with a lot of practice, I have mastered the art of connection. For me, it’s like looking at a screen, a bit like a video recording. The background is black and the images appear with gold edges. The pictures move like they would in a video and last anywhere between one and three minutes. Prior to the visions, I sometimes hear a ringing sound, a bit like tinnitus but not as annoying. This is when I know my soul is turning into a higher frequency and I have finally connected.”

Read on for simple tips and steps to help you achieve a connection with your spirit guide

Items to have nearby

Crystals are very good to dot around the house, as they balance the energies in a room and can also help you to ground yourself. The seven crystals below are good if you want to promote successful meditation. I recommend that you house these stones somewhere in the bedroom. There is no need to spend a fortune on them when purchasing; small, polished versions, or tumble stones, can work just as well as large, more-expensive pieces. The choice is yours.

Angelite , used for summoning guides and angels

Amethyst , a calming stone sed to enhance psychic ability and meditation

Clear quartz , amplifies healing energy; known as the master healing stone

Rose quartz , good for relieving stress and tension; restores the aura by replacing negative energy with positive energy, boosts a live vibration

Black tourmaline , a ground stone that connects the Earth with the human spirit; aligns with chakras

Aventurine , energises the Heart Chakra for wellbeing and emotions

Carnelian , improves concentration during meditation

Mindful meditation

People begin with a series of meditation techniques when first trying to connect to their spirit guides. Before embarking on any spirit communication, it is imperative that you meditate for at least thirty minutes.

Lots of people find it hard to meditate for thirty minutes, but once you get the hang of if, it’s very easy. Those of you who have researched meditation will know there are hundreds of ways to get into a meditative state. There is also a wealth of information online that can help you find the right method for you.

If you choose to perform your meditation during the waking hours, select a crystal and hold it in your hand. If you want to use all of them in your meditation, sit and space the stones in a circle around the base of the chair you’re using or on the floor, should you choose to go without a chair.

If you hope to meditate during your sleeping hours, situate the stone(s) either under the bed or next to wherever you are sleeping. Make sure the house is quiet and sit or lie in the lotus position (sitting with legs crossed and hands on knees) as depicted in some books just make sure that you are cozy, snug, and completely relaxed. People find lying in the fetal position, under the covers, in their bed the best position. You might prefer to lie on your back or sit upright; it’s completely up to you!

First, concentrate on every part of upur body, starting with your feet. Relax the feet, focusing on each toe being completely floppy, then work up the body to the ankle, calf muscles, and so fourth. Your aim is to be totally still, allowing yourself to become calm and tranquil. When you get to the area below the waist, holdmw pelvic dloor exercise for ten seconds, then clench your buttocks for a few seconds and relax. When you get to the top part of your body, raise your shoulders up yoward your neck for five seconds before releasing them. You will fill a tingling sensation as they fall back to their usual position. Take your time. By the time you reach your facial muscles, you should be feeling extremely relaxed. Second, breathe steadily, either through your nose or mouth — whichever is most comfortable. Take a deep, slow breath inward and then exhale slowly. Repeat this for a few minutes or until you start to feel weightless. Clear your mind. Behind your closed eyes, focus in the darkness you see. See if you can pick out any shapes or lights.

Ask questions

At this stage, you should be in a meditative state, so now is the time to ask your guides for information. In your mind, ask your guide a series of questions, focusing on each question for a few minutes.

„I would like my guide to visit me. Are you there? Can you show yourself to me?

You might see patterns and shapes behind your eyes or feel a strange sensation of belonging. The experiejce is different for everyone. If you don’t feel anything, don’t be disheartened. Remember, some guides will not show themselves to you while uou are awake and might wait until a time when you are asleep. They know you better than you know yourself and may think that you are not ready to receive them in a conscious state.

„Please show me your gender. Are you male, female, or nonbinary?”

At this point, you must tune in physically and trust your inner thoughts and instincts. Imagine you are standing in front of a being. Tap into the energies and trust your very first answer. 

„can you tell me your name, please?”

It might take several meditations before you receive this answer, but, once again, trust those instincts—you have them for a reason. Allow your imagination to expand. Your guides name may not come quickly or even come to you at all when meditating. You might be given the name a few days later, so look out for signs. If, during the following days, you hear the same name repeatedly, perhaps on TV or the radio, it could be your guide nudging you gently. Alternatively, you might wake up one morning with a clear name in your head.

Once you have your guides name, you are on your way to connecting with them fully. If you are serious about making a connection with your guide, you must meditate every night before going to sleep. People often fall asleep during meditation; this is quite alright. When you arrive at a meditative state, your vibration rises and your energy starts to change and evolve. It does take lots of practice, so never give up. After a while you will be able to slip into this relaxed state quickly and summon your guide as needed.

Thank you for reading this. For all the beginner witches out there, I hope you grow more and more accustomed to your spiritual journey, and find your own path 🤍 please remember that you can find your own path to witchcraft — there’s no set formula, just a bunch of practices that you can choose to use. Witchcraft can be used for anything — from protection to success in certain aspects of life. If you want to know more, you may check out my quotev or tiktok account. I have posted information relating to these topics there, but I’m posting irregularly. Especially my tiktok account, I don’t really post there anymore 💔 but the works are still there.

🌞 SUN GAZING 🌞

A Spiritual Practice

A theme song for this post:

I DO NOT PLAGIARIZE, COPY OR REWORD ANY OF MY FELLOW SPIRITUAL BEINGS POSTS AND I DEMAND THE SAME IN RETURN.

A BONUS in this post : SUN WATER AND MOON WATER🫂⛅

Sun Gazing is an Ancient Egyptian practice where you stare directly into the Sun. But this can only be done at sunrise or sunset to avoid damage being done to your eyes from the UV rays.

Sun gazing does much more than just increase your energy. Sun gazing is said to decalcify and grow the pineal gland (3rd eye). Meaning you will feel more spiritually connected to the world around you.

This practice helps one feel more energized and free, so if you feel sluggish and tired all the time, be sure to try this out. Society has made us believe that the Sun is bad for us, when actually, if in reality, we harvest the Sun's energy properly, it can and will change our lives forever.

If you don't believe it, Try this practice for 7 days straight and just see the difference!

⛅ SUN WATER and MOON WATER 🌜

Now, I'm sure many of my spiritual readers know what Moon Water is. Some may even know what Sun Water is. If some of you are hearing this for the first time, I will explain briefly.

• Sun Water is the method of containing the Sun's positive energies into the water we drink or use for our spiritual practices by placing it outside exposed to the Sun.

• Moon Water is the method of containing the Moon's positive energies into the water we drink or use for our spiritual practices by placing it outside exposed to the Moon.

HOW TO MAKE SUN WATER:

The steps are very easy and simple:

Fill up any container with Water (Bottles, A Glass, Tumbler, anything that can hold in water).

If you wish, you can even cleanse the container before filling it up with Water, with an incense stick or sage.

Place the container of water where the Sun's rays hit. The water in the container must be exposed to the Sun's rays. Also, you are only supposed to keep the water at any of the 2 allotted timings which I have given below👇

You can write down affirmations on a piece of paper, fold it and place it under the container if you wish to, as well.

Let the container be where it is till the time you must take it out, that is:

Early morning - 6:00 Am to 8/9:00 Am.

Afternoon to evening hours - 5:30 Pm to 7:00 Pm.

The benefits of drinking and using the Sun Water in our spiritual practices are the same as the benefits of Sun Gazing.💖

.

HOW TO MAKE MOON WATER:

Again, The steps are very easy and simple:

Fill up any container with Water (Bottles, A Glass, Tumbler, anything that can hold in water).

If you wish, you can even cleanse the container before filling it up with Water, with an incense stick or sage.

Place the container of water where the Moon's light touches the water. The water in the container must be exposed to the Moon's light.

You can write down affirmations on a piece of paper, fold it and place it under the container if you wish to, as well.

Let the container be where it is overnight and then you must take it out before the sun rises.

MOON GAZING IS ALSO VERY BENEFICIAL.

Moon Water is very beneficial for those who want to get in touch with their intuition more and become more spiritually energized.

Drinking Moon water can help one become more relaxed and in touch with their emotions and feminine side.

One can manifest and cleanse using Moon Water as well. It is the most recommended by witches. Witchcraft is a bland experience without Moon Water because Moon is the witches mother.

Without the nurturing of our Mother Moon, how can we feel the best in our spiritual practices? Hence, we first bow down to our Moon, who will always be our Soul Mother.

Thankyou for reading through this! I do hope you all enjoyed this short post!

I will see you in the next one, and yes, the tarot pile reading will come out soon...till then, I will be posting as usual❤️

Take care and have a great day!❤️‍🔥

Claiming<<<<<

For those having 8th house placements and/or 12th house placements in the Solar Return Chart:

This year, those who have 8th house placements are becoming more in alignment with their spirituality...be it through reading spiritual books, searching spiritual information or finding spiritual info. on social media, seeing movies with a spiritual, occult or otherworldly touch to it, seeing spiritual youtube videos, travelling more or going on pilgrimages, doing meditation, listening to spiritual music or music that heals you, spiritual paintings, any spiritual art, visiting holy shrines, buying spiritual items, taking nature walks and grounding yourselves, etc...you are all beginning to open your eyes. 🧿

Especially those who have True node there and stellium. If you haven't begun to do any of the above, I think it's best you begin doing any of them, for this is your calling.

「 Also In fact, those having scorpio/8th house and/or pisces/12th house natal chart placements (esp. stellium) are very much in touch with their sexual side because they are very much aligned with their spirituality, even if there are times when they feel drained out or blocked in their path. 」

Usually when they are spiritually feeling blocked, even the sensual energy is at a pause so grounding and meditating or simply just taking a simple break from spiritual practices can help heal such drained energies. When you feel like you are ready to do spiritual practices again, that's when you begin because the universe does not want you to burden yourself, for you are their eternal child. No one is as understanding as our Gods, our spiritual guides and our universe folks.

「Anyways,so yes, Being spiritual involves being very much sensual. 」

All the very best on this beautiful journey we call 'Life'~

🤍🙏🕉️🧘‍♂️ MUDRAS 🧘‍♂️🕉️🙏🤍

Meaning ‘Seal’, ʼMark’ or ‘Gesture’ in Sanskrit are said to intensify the Effects of our Yoga or Meditation practice, and Enhance the Flow of Energy ⚡.

The specific origins of Mudras are unknown although they’ve been around for thousands of years, appearing in varying religions and traditions including Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Egyptian Hieroglyphics, Tantric rituals, Roman art, Asian Martial arts, Taoism, Indian Classical dance, even found in organizations such as Freemasons, and more.

While some Mudras involve the entire Body, most are Performed with the Hands and Fingers.

The purpose of these hand gestures varies according to tradition, from focusing Subtle Energy, transmitting teaching through symbols, Acting as a tool for Healing illness, even attributing Magical Powers or Psychic Abilities to the Practitioner.

In Yoga and Meditation many uses Mudras alongside Pranayama (Yoga Breathing exercises), usually when seated cross-legged in Sukhasana, Virasana or Padmasana.

Mudras are also incorporated into the Physical practice of Yoga Asana.

Performing Mudras have been said to stimulate the Flow of Prana (Life Force or Energy ⚡) throughout the Body, and to Quieten the Mind by focusing it on the simple touch of our Hands or Fingers and to Intensify the Power of our practice.

According to Ayurveda, disease is the result of an Imbalance in our Body caused by a Deficiency or an Excess one of the Five Key Elements: Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth.

Each of these is said to Play a specific Role within the Body and are represented by the Five Fingers:

The Thumb – Fire

The Forefinger – Wind

The Middle Finger – Ether (or Space)

The Ring Finger – Earth

The Little Finger – Water

The Fingers in essence Act as electrical circuits and the use of Mudras adjust the Flow of Energy which Balance these Elements, accentuating Healing.

For the first time in weeks, its quiet here this morning. I woke up a bear this morning, pounding headache, high anxiety, and tired af after a bad night's sleep. I've taken a few moments to myself to meditate, and reflect on the unusual quiet, the calm stillness of the lake. Let it fill me up, and wash away as much of the negative feelings in me as I'm able, before I start my day. It's helped. Here's to better starts for everyone. #stillness #quietplace #meditation https://www.instagram.com/p/B1GxXAGhXOw/?igshid=v1pynbn7xz53
