When the time is right , it will happen . Be open to it and be open to the manner in which it may happen . Relax .
Try keeping a dream journal , as messages often comes through both our subconscious and our guides in the form of dreams . Writing down your dreams can be a valuable way to see what your dreams are telling you . You may also benefit from taking note of any instances in waking life where you felt inexplicably drawn or led to do something . What happened when you did this ? Or what were the results when you resisted ?
Don ' t get stuck on expecting to see a person appear in front of you . Not everyone has this experience . And not every experience with the same guide will be like that , even if it is sometimes . In my experience , when I have " seen " guides I saw them in my mind ' s eye , not with my physical ones and they were not like physical people . They were beings of light . They were auras that emanated light , especially from their hearts .
Whether you think of guides as actual beings , as your Higher Self , your subconscious mind , as God or as intuition , it really makes no difference in the end . It is receiving information from a part of you or through a part of you that is capable of seeing and understanding things in a different and more expansive way . If this is helpful and loving , then why not make use of it ? There is also no need to banish logical thinking . A good balance of intuition and logic makes for a balanced mind and a more functional life . Embrace your whole mind , logic and intuition .
