Signs of a Spirit Guide’s Presence and How Do Spirit Guides Help Us?

Spirit guides are surrounded by light energy and have a distinctive frequency and vibration. They are with us all the time and they will attempt to get our attention in different ways. You can speak to your guides directly or you can communicate with them telepathically (without words). When you interact with your spirit guides, words aren’t always necessary because they speak and understand the soul’s language. Their presence is not meant to scare you, so if you feel afraid and uneasy, know that you have the power to end the interaction right away. If you want to be more sensitive to their presence, here are some of the tell-tale signs that they are around.

Presence in the Room

If you feel like you are not alone in the room, yet physically you’re the only one around, then you are probably feeling your spirit guide’s presence. A sense of excitement, anticipation, or calmness may spread around you. Regardless of what you feel exactly, the overall sensation must be that of safety and protection.

Temperature Change

A sudden change in the surroundings’ temperature is usually a signal of your spirit guide’s arrival. Ethereal beings are made up of pure energy so they frequently affect and shift the energies within spaces, causing changes in temperature.

Unexplained Odors

If you smell anything that has no apparent physical source, this is a clear indication that a spirit guide is there. Most of the time, the odor will be a signature scent. If you smell something and immediately associate it with your aunt, your grandfather, or just anyone you know, chances are they are around you.

Tingling and Pressure on the Head Area

Many spirit guides prefer to get your attention by affecting your crown chakra. When you feel tingling or itching sensations at the top of your head, this is probably the physical manifestations of your spirit guide’s workings. They also like to tap into intuitive centers such as the third eye chakra. If you feel a slight pressure or a headache in these parts, this means that your guides want to establish contact with you. If you experience any pains at the back of your head it could also be a sign of their presence.

Electronic Glitches

Because spirit guides are made up of energy, they have the ability to affect the energy of tangible objects. Although their ability to affect the Physical World is limited, many spirits will learn how to tap into mechanical objects and electronic equipment. If you notice that your radio suddenly works oddly, your television set acts all weird, or your clock stops at a particular time, those are already signs from your guides.

Behavior of Pets

Animals tend to be keener and more sensitive to energy and spirits compared to humans. If your dog suddenly barks at a particular space for no obvious reason or your cat appears to stare intently at something, they are probably having a conversation with your guides. Take this as a sign and try to communicate with them. If you suddenly feel like there are spirits around you then you are most likely correct. Now that you know the signs of their presence, it will now be easier for you to recognize if your guides attempting to communicate. All you have to do is be very open to getting a sign. However, don’t expect anything so specific or you will completely miss it. In short, don’t set in advance how or in what form the sign will come.

How Do Spirit Guides Help Us?

Spirit guides are aware of what is happening in our lives, and they have several ways to make their guidance and/or intervention felt when it is time for them to help us.

Signs:

Guides can set up synchronicities to notify you of something you have to see or learn about. Pay attention to those signs when you see them. For example, you may encounter the same scene from a particular movie for a number of times, in a number of ways, within a 24-hour period. That is clearly a sign from your guides.

Gut feelings:

Your spirit guides can poke your gut when you are about to experience something that you need to pay attention to. This is the reason why following your gut feelings is most likely for the best. Can you remember an instance where you had this feeling that something bad was about to happen but you couldn’t quite understand where the feeling was coming from? Perhaps it was your spirit guide poking at your gut.

Intuitions:

Intuitions sent by guides may come in the form of a voice in your head. Such thoughts may seem like they are coming out of nowhere but their messages are probably something that you’ll want to look into. Many people tend to disregard their intuition, but it can actually be a valuable information resource.

Set-ups with people:

Like people, your spirit guides can also get together with other people’s guides and when they do, they’ll usually collaborate to set up a meeting between you and their charges. Has it occurred to you that you suddenly think of someone from your past and then as if by magic you actually do see them within the day? It could be regarded as a chance encounter, but it is also likely that it was a set-up from your guides.

Rearrangements:

Guides have the ability to push you in the direction they want you to go, or like in the previous examples, set-up what will happen to you. For example, you are currently running late and then you realize that you forgot something at home. You get mad at yourself for being so forgetful at a critical time. When you get home, your phone rings and you are tempted not to answer because you are really worried now about being late. You answer it anyway and it turns out to be a very important call that you otherwise would have missed if you had not forgotten any of your things. Your guides can drive you to commit these subtle “rearrangements” to help you pick up their clues. Sometimes, surrendering to a frustrating situation can actually lead to good outcomes. Your guides are always around to help you with your problems and they see to it that you follow the path that has been paved for your soul’s purpose. If you are ready to receive their guidance, you can try to forge stronger connections with them through meditation, guided imagery, and hypnosis.
