Hi to all and blessed be,
Iam quite new to wicca and still learning the basics really but was intrigued by what I have read about spirit guides and wanted to ask forum members about an experience I had a few weeks ago,,,,,
Before I explain, i must add that i have had visitations throughout my life.....not many but my great grandmother appeared to me when I was 7 and shortly after my beloved grandad died in 1999 I just KNEW he was with me as I could smell him EVERYWHERE i went and he appeared to my daughter one evening when she was seeking his guidance......
For this reason, I almost naturally assumed that my grandad was likely to be my spirit guide....however.......the other evening when I went to bed and placed myself in what I would call my relaxed state......I was taken to a grassy field, so green and lush and al around me there was calm, the sun was shining, i could actually feel its warmth, and could hear the birds singing, i saw myself slowing walking through the field until i came to a small grass covered hill in front of me with stone steps placed into the ground going up the hill........upon climbing these steps i came upon a small stone hut with what i can only describe as a man dressed in shepherds clothes holding a crook type stick....I felt no fear, it just felt RIGHT.......I was just about to try and communicate with him when I suddenly lost the relaxed state and came back to reality.........
I just wondered COULD THIS HAVE BEEN MY SPIRIT GUIDE?? and if so how can i try to see him again as I have failed using my relaxation technique since
thanks for reading

Not that i am an expert by any shape or form cause i am relatively new to Wicca as well- so i can only give u my opionion.
Because u are so eger 2 see your spirit guide again he will not appear. He/ she appear when u least expect it.
I learnt about spirit guides thro working an aura camra, (the poroid 1 not the moving images 1) after the picture had developed i wud see figures standing by the person that was havin the photos and thing wud just come to me about names and nationalities (surprisingly enough -got a lot of Native American spirit guides) which, in my experience a lot of people have.
Perhaps next time a body, mind & spirit fayre cum near you - it wud be interestin to see if he is on your photo. with his type of dress i wud say he was your guide but thats just my opioion.

Jo - do you happen to have the equipment for that? *fascination switch flipped*
Btw, I like your profile pic - what are you holding?
Best wishes,
Marion.

George Bush kissing Billy Graham on the cheek at that memorial service on the eve of 9/11. Definitely scary.

It's up 2 you whether u believe me or not - cause if i hadnt of seen it myself i wud not have believed it:
the girl i did a photo for was heavily into angels (which she didnt tell me till l8er)- she managed to manifest an angel with his/her wings spead out over the top of her aura. it was very touching actually, cause when she saw the pic she cried and i cried too cause i'm a big soft arse.
I am kickin myself that i never got a copy of it.

Oh I can believe it, and have no doubt it protects her well

...but there's a big difference between that and the crusades of fundamentalist "holy war" in the name of Exxon or Agip for that matter. There I see a very dark shadow.
