There
is a wealth of material 'out there' in regards to spirit guides.
The important thing to remember is that none of it is objective.
I recall listening to a CD by a well-known highly regarded
expert
a few years ago. She said that we only ever have one spirit
guide. This is simply not true. She may only have one spirit
guide, but that doesn't mean that you or I only have one spirit
guide. No one has exactly the same spiritual experiences as
another. We are all unique, and whilst there are some generalities,
seek to look outside of the expected.
As I have
progressed on my own journey, I have travelled with numerous
guides. Some of them have been with me for a very short time,
and some for a considerable amount of time. Five years ago
my quest for knowledge quadrupled, and it was necessary for
me to work with several guides in order for me to be able
to process the material and experiences that were happening.

Many
people say that they don't know who their guide is and they
wish that they did. Well that's ok, and the thing to do
is to just trust that he or she is with you. Ask for a name
and whatever comes into your head, decide on it. Spirit
Guides do not care what you call them as long as you acknowledge
that they exist.
I used
to question that everyone and his mother seemed to have
a Native American Indian guide. It seemed ridiculously fantastical
that so many indians were guiding us. I do not doubt this
now, as having read hundreds of books and studied the Native
American Indian in depth, I can see that they are a race
that is uparalled in wisdom.
It is
not that the Indians have more intellectual knowledge than
us. It is that they know how to live. They understand the
beauty and power of silence, and how much we can observe
without words. They understand the true meaning of freedom
and honour, and do not pay lip service to unnecessary values.

Last
year I felt an incredible urge to start drawing. Within
a few weeks I had created some very credible drawings, one
of which is my own spirit guide. The connection to him is
astonishing, and he now takes pride of place in the house.
He stays close, but often takes a back step just to see
how I am doing, and what choices I will make next.
Spirit
guides are not with you to tell you what to do. So if that
is what you are expecting, you may feel rather disappointed.
Their job is to guide a little, maybe help when you are
on the right path, and issue a warning when you are not.
Although occassionally we need the lessons of the wrong
road, in order for us to gain a sense of duality.

The
main thing is to stay patient in your quest
to find your guide. Just assume that he or she
is there. Talk to them as you would a close
friend and confidant. Ask for signs but remain
open to the fact that some of these signs may
be rather vague and shadowed. Every now and
again the signs will be ubiquitous, and you
may not see them for they will surround you
like a fog.
Do
not allow others to tell you how it will be.
Search for yourself and listen to your own answers.
The truth of your own heart will inspire and
lead you to the right people, including your
own guide[s]
