When it comes to receiving spiritual guidance from your spirit guides or from other spiritual authorities, understanding their language, understanding how to perceive the guidance is essential. Otherwise, you just you can't be guided.
So, what I want to do in this video is share a key and very overlooked way that spirit guides attempt to guide you. And many people shut it down because they feel like it's not actually guidance. They don't think that it's guidance or don't realize. And if you know about this, it will make a big big difference in your life.
Now, it's a it's definitely a way that I've been guided before and I want to share a moment that this happened for me so that you can see how it might apply to your life. A few months back, I was looking for a van. Me and my girlfriend wanted to get a van to convert into a camper van so that we could go away for weekends and I could do solo meditation retreats and things like that in the future. And I found one that on paper looked perfect. The price was perfect for what we were going to spend, uh the mileage, the condition, all of it looked really really good.
So, I thought, well, I'll go and have a look. Went and had a look, walked around the van, got in the van, drove the van. It felt okay. And I thought, right, I'm I don't feel this strong yes about this at the moment. So, what I'm going to do is going to going to sit in our vehicle and I'm going to make myself quiet. I'm going to open up. I'm going to ask for guidance and see what happens. And I actually stayed there for about 15 minutes in complete silence. I think the guys uh the mechanics who were sort of showing me around must have been like, what the hell is he up to? But I did this and it was amazing. I I sat in complete silence and I felt nothing. >> [laughter] >> I felt absolutely nothing. That was my sign not to get the van. I felt nothing.
So many times, I think we ask for guidance and we search for guidance. We search for something within us. What Where's the sign? Where's the acknowledgement? Where's the nudge in any particular direction? And we overlook the fact that we're being guided in as much as we we don't feel a an absolute yes about this thing. And this is very very overlooked.
I've had it in the the reverse where we we purchased this flat, our first property together, a couple of years ago. And we went and had a look around it and I was actually calling it ours when we were just viewing it for the first time with the estate agent. I was so certain it was going to be ours and I didn't even do it consciously. It just kept coming out. I just kept saying ours when I was talking about different things. And I knew it was going to be ours. I just had this real confident yes that this was the thing to go and uh this was the property to go and buy. We'd been to view about three before this and I felt that emptiness, that that kind of nothingness about them. But when I came to this one, it came to this one, I was like, yes, this is it. And this is a key way that we're guided.
Sometimes the guide will In most cases, the guidance is very very subtle and we search for the answer. And often as well, if it doesn't align with what we want, we search even harder. So, if I'd gone to that van, for example, and I really really wanted it and I'd sat in the in my van at the time and said, please can you guide me? I would have been searching for that yes. I would have been searching for a reason to get the van because I I wanted it.
But what we have to do, I think, is make ourselves empty, push aside any preferences, any likes and dislikes, and just say, I'm open. Please can you guide me? And see what comes through from that that moment. But what I really want to get across is don't hesitate when you feel uh that nothingness, that emptiness. That is confirmation and it's easy to overlook it, but it's there and you're being helped.
So, I wanted to share that with you. I think it's valuable.

But as always, thank you so much and I'll see you on the next one.
