Spirit guides and guardian angels are actually collective terms for angels. In different teachings, the term “spirit guide” has different interpretations and definitions. They are referred to by various names, including spirit guides, guardian spirits, angels, guardian angels, archangels, and also folk names such as protectors or guardian deities. For the sake of reader understanding, I will provide the following explanations:
Spirit Guide/Guardian Spirit:
Spirit guides are actually a collective term for angels, guardian angels, and archangels, including what is commonly known as protector deities in folklore. Different religions and cultural backgrounds have different terms or names for spirit guides or guardian angels. However, these names also encompass the different positions, dimensions, or levels of consciousness where these angels exist.
Each soul incarnating into the world has different purposes and learning lessons. Therefore, the spirit guide assigned to each person, including their angelic hierarchy, is not the same. Some individuals may have many spirit guides throughout their lives, while others may have fewer. It entirely depends on individual needs. The majority of people have a fixed spirit guide throughout their lives. Your spirit guide has been accompanying and guiding you since before your birth. They have been involved in the planning of your life blueprint, including the choice of parents and the formulation of soul contracts. We can understand them as the “Master Guide” or guardian spirit.
From a literal understanding, “guardian” implies care, protection, and watchfulness, while “guide” implies education and guidance. Therefore, I refer to the higher spiritual beings that accompany us throughout our lives as “guardian spirits” or “guardian angels,” and the higher beings responsible for guiding, conveying knowledge/information, and providing education as “spirit guides” or “guiding angels.”
Master Guide:
For most people, their “Guardian Angel” or “guardian spirit” is an elder from their own soul family. It means they are an “old soul” or a higher spiritual being with experience and higher spiritual attainment. For ordinary individuals, unless there are special reasons, your guardian spirit will accompany you in every journey of your life. They serve as both guardian spirits and spirit guides. It all depends on individual needs.
Spirit Guide:
I refer to them as “mentors.” Some mentors are ancient sages from our Earth’s history (my mentors are well-known sages in the area). Spirit guides can change frequently as needed. The most common types include:
Knowledge Spirit Guide (Doctor of Philosophy): They primarily guide you in spiritual and life-related knowledge. You may have One or more spirit guides in this category, and it can increase or decrease depending on the circumstances.
Chemistry Spirit Guide (Doctor of Chemistry): They primarily take care of your life, especially in terms of diet and health.
Work Spirit Guide (Joy Guide): They primarily guide you in work- and life-related skills. They often have both full-time and part-time roles and are always ready to assist.
It is said that some people have many more spirit guides than mentioned above. The spirit guides mentioned here are based on my own true experiences and are shared with the readers.
Angels and Guardian Angels:
Angels and guardian angels can be considered as any spiritual beings in the hierarchy of angels. There are no apparent differences in their work compared to guardian spirits and spirit guides, except for differences in tasks and ranks. This is because they exist in different densities or spaces, have different levels of evolution, and their tasks’ depth and difficulty are related to their respective roles.
In general, they are no different from spirit guides and guardian spirits. They are responsible for conveying messages, giving guidance, providing comfort, protection, and even rescue. According to individual needs, a Guardian Angel is assigned to assist you throughout your life. This guardian can be any angel within the angelic hierarchy, including archangels.
Archangels:
Archangels are the highest-ranking angels. Readers can understand archangels as messengers who are closest to the Creator or God. To learn more…>
