This exercise will help you connect with your inner guidance.

Inner guidance covers information from a variety of sources. The different sources merge like tributaries joining a stream. Sometimes we don’t know exactly how the information comes together, but we receive a stream of guidance that provides insights when we need them.

The channel to receive this inner guidance is often our imagination, so being open to receiving messages which may feel like your own imagination is a good start. These messages may come in the form of symbols, so if you want two-way communication you need to establish a language.

Shortly after my close girlfriend friend died, I asked her for a symbol that would prove she had heard me talking with her. In my mind I saw a white dove. I affirmed that I would look for a white dove in the very near future as confirmation she had sent this image. Since during an average week I am either at work or home, this was harder than it seemed.

In the next two days, I saw three white doves. One was in an email from an acquaintance I rarely heard from. The second was the first song in our church service (On the wings of a snow white dove) and the third was on a poster at my doctor’s surgery. I knew my friend and I had made contact, and my heart felt lighter. She had known in advance that the white dove would cross my path in several ways, and so the symbol was meaningful and timely.

In addition to a friend in spirit sending a symbol to represent them, you can choose symbols for your spiritual helpers to use when communicating with you. These symbols might provide guidance when you have a question.

Sit quietly and choose just a few images that have a specific meaning for you. Keep your symbols simple and direct. Let your spiritual helpers know the messages these symbols will represent. Eventually you will be able to ask a question, and a symbol of guidance will come into your mind or manifest in your life.

Relationships are always evolving, so be open to receiving new symbols as you continue to communicate. However, most importantly, be open to the signposts that you set before entering this life.

With practice you can use symbolic language to receive guidance during meditation. Here is a straightforward example. My symbol for, ‘Be careful,’ is a yellow traffic light. If I received that symbol when considering a new job offer, I would make sure I did more research before I accepted that position.

Keep your symbols simple, direct, and available in the physical world. Draw or write your symbols in a journal. This is the beginning of a rich relationship that will continue to evolve.

Your spiritual helpers can hear your thoughts any time you choose; however it will be easier for you to receive their messages if you are peaceful. Meditation is an excellent means of achieving a peaceful state of mind.

Preparing for Meditation

In meditation your energy is as close as it can be to the higher vibration of the spirit world. This is the ideal time to ask a spiritual friend or guide to send you a symbol to confirm they are with you.

Sit or lie in a comfortable position. Focus your attention on your breath and feel yourself relaxing. Visualise your heart centre opening and see your inner light expanding and shining brightly.

Now feel yourself filled with the brilliant White Light that comes from the Source (God, the Divine Spirit or whatever name you prefer). Allow it to begin high above you, and feel it travelling down into the crown of your head, pouring through you and out the soles of your feet.

See or imagine this White Light filling your entire house. Say to yourself: The Light protects me. The Light surrounds me. I am Light.

Ask your spiritual guides to protect you so that the beings who enter your vibration come for your highest good.

Let your inner light and the Light from the Source become one.

Allow yourself to relax. Scan your body, gently, releasing each of your muscles in turn. Breathe the White Light down into the core of your being and relax deeper as you exhale.

When you feel ready, mentally ask that you are connected with the spirit world.

You may feel some tingling around your face, neck and hair or a subtle ripple in your energy field. You may feel a gentle, warm pressure touching a hand. Your spiritual helpers will try to let you know they are with you in loving, non-invasive ways, so do not be afraid. They only blend with your energy field and thoughts; they never enter your physical body. It is mind to mind communication.

Should you ever feel uncomfortable, ask them to retreat so their vibration feels less intense. This is unlikely to happen, but it is useful to know you have this ability.

Your spiritual friends will not intentionally alarm or frighten you; however, a loved one may be excited to make contact and their vibration may surprise you.

Please understand that many people communicate through thoughts alone, and do not feel changes in vibration. This communication is equally valid and real.

Meditation

Once you are relaxed, ask to connect with the person you want to hear from; say their name and visualise them clearly. If you hold an item they owned or a photo, this will enhance the connection.

If you wish to communicate with your teaching guides, then ask for that connection instead. It is also very natural to ask for spiritual assistance from those who watch over you, without specifying their identities. You have a team of spiritual helpers working with you throughout your life. On any occasion, you want the best spiritual guidance possible.

Next, request that they send you a mental picture of something you will come across in the next few days. This symbol will be straightforward so that you can recognise it when you see it. When you receive an image or even a word, record it in your journal and wait for it to manifest.

In the next step, you can respectfully share the symbols you have chosen and their meanings. Do this by visualising each image and sending clear thoughts about what it means. It is best to build your language slowly so that each symbol is firmly understood before adding a new one.

This communication allows you to speak to your spiritual guidance, including your own psychic intuition, any time you choose. The symbols that are impressed on your mind will help clarify your issue or problem.

When you have completed sharing your symbols, remember to give thanks and bring your attention back to the present moment. Stretch, and make sure you are completely alert before you stand or resume usual activities.
