An Angel Came to Visit
by Lily Satterfield
My inner teacher manifested as a being of light. It came into the room, or
appeared beside me, and I asked it to help me with a stomach ache.
It put its hands on my belly. I felt the warmth and healing. My stomach
was settled instantly. I looked with wonder at the Being. It was in the form
of a beautiful Man, but did not appear to be particularly macho. In fact, it
had an androgynous quality that made it seem very angelic. “It” made me
understand that words and talking were not right for our communication,
and that only symbols, feelings, impressions colors, and smells, would be
our medium of communication. By paying attention I could begin to
approach reality without judgment and prejudice.
Clearly, my tendency is to use words. And again and again, I lost
communication with my angel Guide by resorting to words and getting
into a judging match with myself. As I practiced, my perception of my
inner Guide would sharpen or blur, depending on how much of my verbal
judging, material mind I wanted to use.
Gradually, I learned how to keep the beautiful energy of my Angel in clear
focus. The spirits found my efforts and failures amusing. For them, it was
quite like watching a child get tangled up with an unruly dog on a leash. I
was that child,
trying clumsily to handle the symbol system and learn a whole new
channel of communication before it ran away with me. From here I began
a rather special time of visions and inspirations. My days of instruction
were long and amazing,
although in earth time it was only four months. Soon there was more than
one inner companion. I used an unschooled, intuitive form of meditation
to spend hours in seeing and traveling with my Guides. I asked about
history, mathematics,
religion, astronomy, and the future. What was to happen to humanity?
The symbolic communication system that my inner teachers used
indicated that mankind was approaching the time when our world would
begin again in another form! I was to witness and participate in this
amazing event, along with untold other souls. I was to know major
spiritual truths, and I was to know such despair
on my road it almost broke the angels’ hearts, if such a thing were
possible.
After several months of close contact, one day my inner Guide seemed
somber and sad. It indicated that it would be leaving from the frequency
we communicated at, and that henceforward for many years I would have
to work
harder to communicate. The easy familiarity we enjoyed had been
temporary. It was time to go deeper for the contact with my inner Guide.
This involved learning a real meditation practice, and doing yoga. The
good news is that these practices are beneficial in keeping a contact with
your inner Guides. I have continued with
meditation and spiritual practices for many years to always stay in touch
with my Guides, especially in times of trouble. My inner Guide has never
left for 29 years now. It is still nearby, a warm comforting presence. It is
moderating, protective, and reassuring to me.
My inner guides have never left, and I have daily
contact with their wisdom. People ask me how can they get in touch with
their inner Guides. Why not try right now! Ok, pull over if you are driving.
All kidding aside, it is easy to contact your own personal inner Guides.
The first step is to know that they are there!
The inner Guides have been there all along, trying to communicate and
to assist you, but they would never interfere. We must ask to see our
inner Guides; we need to give permission to ourselves to be aware of
them. Once we can assume that there is something there, we can
proceed to step two: Ask to become aware
of your own most precious inner Guide. Give permission to your Guide to
attempt to contact you through any symbol that you see. You may be
contacted by seeing a flower, and knowing that your inner guide wants
you to notice it. You
may become suddenly aware of your love or appreciation of another
person. This is one common way for your inner Guides to contact you.
Their contact is ALWAYS GOOD. There is never a feeling other than well
being when we contact our true inner Guides, because this is the purest
form of our own conscience, not an outside force. There are other, lower
spirits out there, but they have nothing to do with you and your inner
Guide. No obsession, compulsion or wordy transmissions are permitted.
If you fall into the trap of trying to talk to your inner Guide in words you
will waste time. The pitfall is getting caught up in defining things with
earthly values and judgment. We are all subject to past conditioning
towards negative thinking, and care must be taken not to get negative,
for then
contact is lost as far as conscious awareness is concerned. Your Angels
are always there, tirelessly trying to contact you, to be sure. But we are
trying forconscious contact. This is not where to let out negative thinking.
Your true
Guides will always be POSITIVE.
