A Spirit is a being that has crossed over to the Light Plane of existence. This can be a person or animal.
When we think in Spirit we go to ‘MAN’ but the is not the Metaphysical view, it goes far beyond the Earth Plane, to the very Universe and different Dimensions or Planes of Existence.
We are blessed in that we do not have to walk our life paths in the body form alone. We do not have to face the physical and emotional lessons without a form of guidance. We come forth with Spirit Guides too along our path we have Helper Spirits .
From the view of Metaphysics we have several types of Guides that come with an individual person.
A) Relative Guide - This is said to be a person one has known in this lifetime. They are one that helps ye thought the day to day process of life.
B) The Spirit Guide - This usually be someone ye have shared in a past life with. This be one ye have a Spiritual connection with on common levels of understandings. Guides one on the path of higher understandings . This be the one that gives forth the lessons along the path. Helps one see Karma issues and work past them.
C) The Angels - It is said we all have Guardian Angels wasting over us and giving us protections when we need them. They are what steps in at times of harm that might befall us and moves us seeming out of the way. Role to protect and serve. They are a class of being not a human incarnated.
D) Master Teacher- This is one that the “teachers” in life have with them. It is almost a given that Catholic Popes, or Ministers have one or even Spiritual Healers Too one’s that teach in this life have one, these are people that have lessons or learning’s they pass on to others or healers that pass on an ability. They help on with leadership . They show us what we need to be aware of so we move forward on our evolutional development of the Soul.
E) Animal Spirit Guide - These Guides are said to come in two forms . One is in the physical messengers. This being animals we have cross our paths that we seem to have a connection too or strong understanding of why they be there. The other is in the Spirit form. These are the one’s that teach us but us about our character and traits in personality. It is said these be the one’s that give us our “Abilities”. They too are protectors of us along our Spiritual Path. We too can learn and embrace the heightened senses they have if we know and embrace them as being there. TOO we do NOT all have the “Power” animals such as the “WOLF” but all have a power to them and a gift to us.
