I was very resistant to this idea, being a show me the hard science type of girl, but I am now a firm believer that every single one of us has a guardian angel to guide us.  They are present with us at birth, remain with us throughout life, and will be at our sides as our last breath leaves our physical body, returning us to the spirit world.

Our guides want us to lead our right and perfect lives, and we are free to call on them whenever we need help.  There is no task too big or too small for our angels to help with, and are ready to serve us because serving us is serving God.  Our guardian angels have no sense of ego either, because they have never been human.  That means that they have no sense of “self” apart from the world.  They simply want to serve and help us live our birth right: a life of ease and flow in which we fulfill our life’s purpose. 

And not only do we have guides, but there are archangels (the heavy artillery), and an entire ministry of angels who cover literally every single problem you may have, such as finding a good parking space or finding an appropriate house to buy.  All we have to do is connect with them regularly and ask for what we need. I have been calling upon Archangel Michael lately, because it is he who brings us closer to our life’s purpose and can give us a confidence boost of strength and dedication when we feel ourselves slowing down.  Also Raphael, to bring me into balance and re-energize my body, mind and spirit.  If you want to learn more, google is your best friend ;).

I have been using this simple prayer quite regularly to ask for help when I need it thanks to Sonia Choquette, author of Ask Your Guides: “Ministry of angels, oversee all that I do and make it easy, magical, and full of gifts. Thank you.”  I then feel the angels’ presence and ask for what I need.

I have been interested in spirit for a long time now, but I catapulted myself into this world after seeing a psychic medium in Oshawa about 6 weeks ago, Effie Dimitropoulos.  Effie told me something that I already knew: I had the ability to do exactly what she was doing.  She said that I was a gifted medium like her, and that I had a family member, my maternal grandfather I later learned, who was gifted as well.  Apparently whenever I can’t find something that is right in front of my face, it is my grandfather playing tricks on me, and I used to play with him often as a young girl.

Effie told me that I have premonitions (yes, they usually come in dreams) and can tell the history of objects simply by holding them in my hands (no luck there yet, but I keep trying) and that by honing in on my meditation skills and my third eye, I will tune into these energies.  And I do so as often as a 4-week old baby allows.

I think I was drawn to Effie because of her spirit and her keen third eye ability.  Everything she had on her table was indigo, the colour of the third eye.  I didn’t even know at the time the significance of this shade of purple, but funnily enough I had brought with me a purple notebook and a purple pen!

I now call on my guides and archangels daily for guidance and ease of life.  I have only once heard something from my angels, but it was exactly what I needed to hear at the time, and I look forward to making stronger connections with them as time charges on.  There is something innately calming about having my angels near, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.  I am so very fortunate to be on my current life path.
