Angels: Divine messengers believed to provide guidance and support.
Ascended Masters: Enlightened beings who once lived on Earth and now offer wisdom from a higher plane.
Ancestors: Deceased family members or individuals who provide guidance based on their life experiences and wisdom.
Animal Spirits/Totems: Animals that symbolise specific qualities and offer guidance related to those traits.
Deities: Gods and goddesses from various pantheons who offer specific types of guidance and support.
Purpose: The main purposes of spiritual guides are to:
Offer Guidance: Provide direction and insight on life decisions and spiritual development.
Provide Support: Offer comfort, encouragement, and protection during challenging times.
Facilitate Growth: Help individuals learn and grow spiritually, overcome obstacles, and fulfil their life purpose.
Share Wisdom: Impart knowledge and understanding about spiritual principles and universal truths.
How to Connect: Connecting with spiritual guides typically involves practices such as:
Meditation: Creating a quiet space to listen for guidance and messages.
Prayer: Asking for help and guidance from specific guides or the divine.
Intuition: Paying attention to inner feelings, thoughts, and insights that may be messages from guides.
Dreams: Interpreting dream symbols and messages for guidance.
Divination: Using tools such as tarot cards, oracle cards, or pendulums to receive guidance.
Cultural Variations…
Western Cultures: Often emphasise angelic guides and ascended masters within New Age spirituality.

Eastern Cultures: Recognise deities and enlightened beings as guides, with practices like mantra and visualisation to connect.
