Spirit Guides.

Spirit Guides are non-physical beings, or souls, that are connected to you on your physical journey in life and support you in your path towards spiritual awareness. They have many gifts and abilities to lend divine support to you every second of every day in your life.

These souls are signed on to teach, heal and watch over you. Some are with you as your essence joins your physical body in the womb and they stay with you until your soul ascends from your body at the end of your life and others are loved ones who have passed on who wish to act as guides for you. They are tireless, unlimited and full of unconditional love, and they never judge you or condemn you for your choices. They are a supreme force of divine energy that is constantly nudging you towards your most positive outcomes. They are a beautiful gift to us from the source of all creation.

One of the easiest ways to become aware of and make a conscious connection to your spirit guides is through meditation. Once you have an awareness of your guides, a great way to strengthen that connection is simply to talk with them. Your spirit guides can offer you guidance and support in any area of your life. Like in your relationships, spiritual developement, health/healing issues, creative projects, career choices, and truly any aspect of your journey through life. Just ask and you will receive!

I have memories of some of my first connections and experiences with Spirit Guides as a little girl. When I was around the age of 4 years old, I played almost daily under two trees in our back yard that were special to me. One was a huge Weeping Willow and the other was a tall Evergreen tree. I clearly recall playing and having conversations with what I called the princesses/princes and angels who lived in the branches of the trees. They were always happy and loving to me. When I told my family about them they said (smiling) “You have a really big imagination!”

I realize now that those beautiful memories were my initiation into having a full awareness of the many forms that Spirit takes and being able to communicate with Spirit freely. Now I communicate with Spirit Guides and Angels daily. It is my purpose in life to be in service of Spirit and support all who are drawn to me in making their own connections to their Spirit Guides.

Looking closer at Karma and Reincarnation III, Conclusion.

I promised to talk further about these fascinating topics and to tell about my personal experiences, so, here are some examples. In respect of individuals’ privacy I am not going to mention names or specifics about some of these relations that would lead to identifying them. My son Connor, however, has given me his full permission to talk about our connection to each other in reference to karma and reincarnation. He is a very open soul!

I know that I had karmic ties with a former lover. This was due to the fact that in another soul interaction I deserted him. This caused a buildup of harmful energy between our souls. So, in this life we returned to each other for the purpose of balancing that energy, which was accomplished with his choice to desert me. I understand that this is what was meant to be and gave him complete forgiveness. Now our connection is neutral and balanced. “You reap what you sow.”

Another personal experience of mine was with former student. This student had always held a deep connection to my heart and I felt an enormous sense of obligation to give far more support and encouragement to this particular student than I would in any other teacher – student relationship. My spirit guides showed me that in another life with this person I had been the student and they had been my mentor who had basically taken me in as their own child and supported me for years. So, now I was experiencing the other side of that in order to balance out the positive energy that was exchanged. “What goes around comes around.”

Lastly, I will tell of my relationship to my son Connor. He and I have shared repeated soul connections, or lives, and in each one he dies and leaves me to grieve the loss of my child. In this life it is his soul’s intention to follow through with our parent-child relationship and see it through it’s natural progression;  a child eventually sees their parent die and lives past them. It is my soul’s intention to support him in this and not go through the horrible heartache of losing a child again. Connor just wrapped up a year of chemotherapy treatments and surgeries after developing cancer. Now he is free of the disease and growing stronger every day. I have faith that we are fulfilling our soul contract and balancing out our karma in this life.

In conclusion, I leave you with a few things to think about. We all, every single one of us, picked our parents before our soul was brought back into body. We also sign on to have many other soul connections based on our karmic ties, but our parents are very important as they kind of set the stage for who we are and what our genetic and personality traits are. Think about that and see if it creates a shift in the dynamics of your relationship with your parents and also your children, if you are a parent.

I have enjoyed sharing my experiences with karma and reincarnation and the great comments from you. Maybe we will find ourselves here again, but until then, remember that your true power is in the present moment! Not the past or the future. Make your happiness here and now!! That is the secret!

Love and blessings to all,
Karen

Some of my experiences with Reincarnation.

Here are just a couple of events in my life where I experienced connections to reincarnation:

When I was a little girl, probably around the age of 5, I was watching my mom applying her face cream before bed and I asked her about her breasts. She instantly got very uncomfortable with where I was going in the conversation and turned it around on me asking why I wanted to talk about “boobs,” like it was gross. So, feeling like I was revealing a secret, I told her that I remembered having them when I was a mom and knew that I would be growing them again. I was basically trying to ask her if, because I was her daughter, mine would look like hers when I was a mom again. I knew inside that I had been a mom before and had breasts and would again. She immediately told me that I was being silly and that those ideas were just from a dream that I was remembering. I knew then that she was wrong, but, I could also see how uncomfortable I was making her so I stopped talking. My mom loves me, but didn’t know how to deal with me on subjects like that at the time.

Another time I was playing in my mom and dad’s bedroom in front of the big full length mirror that was attatched to the back of their bedroom door. I was sitting there brushing my hair with my dad’s brush and playing with my mom’s powder, both things that I really wasn’t supposed to do, and I was looking in the mirror at myself. I then felt this over-powering urge to get closer to the mirror and stare into my own eyes intensely. As I began to stare into my own eyes, I saw many different images appear in the mirror around me, and my face changed into other faces several times very quickly. I got scared and looked around the room to see if someone was doing this to me. Just then I felt this overwhelming sense of calm and a voice inside my head told me that it was okay. I went back to the mirror and did it again and once again I saw many different faces transposed over mine. I was fascinated at this point and realized that I always knew that it was still me even when it showed completely different facial features. I continued to play at this repeatedly throughout my childhood until I reached my teens, when it seemed like a weird little kid thing to do, so I stopped.

I know now that my guides were allowing me to see the other shapes that my soul has taken, but it was always me inside. I could tell through my eyes…something about the eyes carries an identifying mark of the soul within.

So, now that I have shared just some of my own strange and embarrassing experiences… do you have something to share? I hope that if you do you will feel confident enough to share them openly like I just did. It is truly freeing!

Warmly,
Karen~
