Interpreting my guides

[Graelwyn]

Ok, I met my guide as an adult about 5 months ago... I apparently spoke to him all the time as a child, but had blocked it all out from the age of 10.

I am getting frustrated because the quality of my messages is varying so much. He will give me for example, a date...but he wont give me why that date is important. My first few readings were very accurate with names and dates and details, and even views of the person I was reading when they were a child, right down to childhood nicknames, but he does not seem to give me names anymore, and if I get names, they are wrong!


How am I supposed to learn to trust in spirit and lose my self doubt when the messages I am getting are so disjointed and sporadic?

One week, I will get excellent info, and another, I will have an almighty struggle and end up giving a load of wrong info among the accurate info.

Any advice gratefully accepted here!

How do you distinguish your Guide(s) from your ego from some other entity?

I also have found that if my focus/intent wanders, so do the answers.  And some questions have no correct answer.  And in some, knowing the answer changes the probability, which in turn changes the answer.  Taht's not a paradox in 5/6 Dimensions.

And what questions are you asking about people/places/names?  Is that your guides purpose?

I don't read for my ego lol, though I know many people do. I find that the worst reading I give tend to be when I am doing a development class and am not actually led to read as such.

I don't really tend to ask questions of my guide much as usually I am simply given information which I pass on. Only time I ask questions is when I am in a class situation and wish to know a parent's name or some such, for without such information, one can be seen to be a cold reader and I myself can view it all as simply fluke and luck, as opposed to contact with spirit or with my higher self.

Hi Kate,

How am I supposed to learn to trust in spirit and lose my self doubt when the messages I am getting are so disjointed and sporadic?

No one ever said that mediumship is an easy path. You may familiar with the adage 'many are called, but few are chosen'. This applies equally to this calling as much as any other route to at-one-ment. On the other hand it can be deeply rewarding act of service, which in return gives one privilege to glimpse many wonders and a true blessing of love!

Like you I had awareness from childhood and chose (was inspired to put it mildly) to follow (aspire to as best I can) a spiritual path in recent years. Do be patient as it really does take time to refine your gift as an instrument for spirit. I know many individuals with decades of experience still regard themselves as humble students. It's more than admirable to aspire to be able to be 100% accurate, but we have human faculties and even the greatest have off days.

If you are in an awareness/development group/circle then good on you as you have taken a significant step forward. Your tutor no doubt has already emphasised the importance of working on/with your own spirit. This is of paramount importance. Take time to sit in the quiet/power without seeking to establish communication, as this is a primary means to refining your mind/soul and link with spirit and the divine connection/heritage we all share. Make careful note of the difference between this and when seeking a link with individualised spirit in the form of guides, inspirers, helpers and loved ones.

In order to seek clarity and confirmation you should not hesitate to question your tutor. As they should be aware of the presence of the communicators you have been working with in circle.  They should at all times aim to help you to establish a growing depth of clarity regarding the personality of communicators, and refine your ability to obtain accurate evidence etc.

With respect to guides, be absolutely clear in your focus. Always send them a loving thought before seeking their inspiration. Also it is often better to seek simple mind to mind heart to heart attunement with them than streams of Q&A as the answers will come in good time for you! This is important: as when you allow your awareness to blend with their energy; they will in turn seek to means to assist you in your ability to distinguish them from other energies and personalities. They will also help you to form a clear code of recognition btw you and them, and you will find also over time that other people will give you confirmation about some of your inspirers. This can often be something ever so simple, but you will know on those occasions when they occur!

Just remember love is the link - anything that does not come with love reject!!!!

Hope this short note helps,

Thankyou for such a lovely response, Stephen. I have been told that this path and using such gifts is a responsibility, and to never allow ego to come into it, which I do my best not to. It was only a year ago I started exploring my spirituality and my path, though it was 6 years ago when investigating haunted places I started realising something odd was going on.

I did not actually believe in my gifts at all until one night I was sat in a yahoo chatroom just watching people and kept hearing the name of someone in the room in my head. Of course, I ignored it and tried to let it go, but I then got the word 'Cali' come in too and had to say something. Her niece's name it turned out. I got a sharp pain in the right side of my neck a little later and saw the image of a horse. Having told the girl this, she told me her 8 year old nephew had died when thrown from a horse. He broke his neck. I cannot tell you the shock I felt.

But in spite, I continued to avoid speaking out and indeed listening. I spend very little time in silence, which maybe is a mistake. A part of me knows there is a vast amount more to this universe than we see...but an often dominant part will refute what I experience is any more than fluke or telepathy and such things.

It is often when I am at my most doubting that I will give my best messages, ironically. I dont generally read unless I am strongly drawn to, usually when it is badly needed.

I am doing a circle at a spiritualist church and also have a mentor of sorts, who is meant to be teaching me more, but is holding back until I am fully ready, which is very soon apparently. He has the same gifts, is on the same path, and had the same issues of trust which is quite useful. But I dont usually ask for confirmation. I know my guide has been seen and spoken to by others, so at least there is that.

I shall have to halt for now as I am shattered lol.

Now the clarity has struck me.

I appologise, I wasn't thinking Medium.

Self-Doubt is a hard thing to overcome.  Time and again I ask questions I already know the answer to, seeking more 'proof'.  The last time (hopefully the last time    ) I asked a medium a question I already knew the answer to she actually yelled at me!  Told me it wasn't my choice and to stop worrying about it.  She was quite correct.  I had this re-inforced through other means.  Last weekend I got a drive-by message from another medium (yes, there are a lot of people like that where I hang out online).  Basically it was stop looking and LISTEN (this was from one of my guides through her).

Have faith in yourself.  Every mistake is an opportunity to learn.  Every task helps you become better.  Sometimes you will be quite correct, but it won't seem that way (some people will lie in responce, and some won't "know" it's true until later).  And sometimes you may have simply mis-interpreted your guides.  After all Language is a 3-Dimensional thing, and not how Spirit communicates, things get lost in translation.
