Meditation: Select Your Ancestral Guide
In this section, we are going to Ask a Member of our Ancestral Team to step forward for the purpose of being a guide for you during your process.
WHY HAVE A GUIDE
In doing this kind of work, I find that our ancestors get excited and look forward to sharing their knowledge and information with you. I also find that it helps to have a guide that can help make the introductions and connections that you may not have been open to or aware of previously.
AFTER ALL, THIS WHOLE THING IS ABOUT USING THE ENHANCED PERSPECTIVE THAT THEY HAVE SO GENEROUSLY SHARED WITH US.
There are lot of ways to ask for an Ancestral Guide but this is a way that worked really well for me and connected me to my Guide:
Below is a Meditation that I use to see who would be open to working with me. Use the notes below to set up space for an ancestor to connect with you for the purpose of being a guide.
-Short Notes-
Meditation:
Prepare your space for what you desire during a meditation.
When you have completed your relaxation process, visit your internal space where you visit your guides or your other spirit team members.
Explain to them the project that you are working on (This is more for you than for them- they are already in the know)
Ask them if there is an Ancestor that would like to work with you on this project.
Sometimes it helps to visualize a door, knock on the door and see who answers.
Wait and allow the person you see to step forward.
It is ok if you did not know this person in life
If you do not know their relation to the family, ask them if they would be able to share with you how you are connected.
If they seem like they are not able to explain, it may not be that they don’t know, but more likely it would be more complicated than what is needed to explain.
Take a moment to feel the energy between you and GO FOR IT!
Ask this guide to provide you a sign in your waking life that you can use as a confirmation of their willingness to partner with you on this project.
I suggest you write this down after you leave your meditation.
Thank the ancestor and let them know that you will be back and are excited to work with them as well!
Leave your internal space and reverse your meditation process to come back to reality and reground.
Take a moment to write in your journal or notebook the experience you had and the sign that you will be looking out for.
I find that signs usually show up within a few hours to a few days. If it begins to be longer than 2 weeks. I would try this process again and ask for a different sign that you may have an easier time verifying or validating.
NOTE:
SIGNS ARE A BENEFIT BUT NOT A GATE KEEPER
if you are having a hard time getting a sign or finding your sign, that’s ok- you are not broken. Sometimes we just need to relax into the process a little more and eventually something will arise for you.
SEEK TO OBSERVE RATHER THAN UNDERSTAND
Allow yourself the freedom to not judge or apply meaning early in the process. Stay objective as possible as you’ll be crawling into new territory here and while your team and I want you to enjoy yourself, we also don’t want you to fall into the rabbit hole of prematurely assigning meaning to everything you encounter. Understanding will occur in time.
IDEA- In your Journal- keep a “questions” page where you write down your questions to ideas, thoughts and concepts that you may not understand. You team will be able to provide answers to you during this process.
