Not sure what to ask your Spirit Guides? Try starting with any or all 4 things I consistently ask my Guides for help with:
Decision Making
You can use spiritual guidance for something as little as determining which milk to buy or to help you pick out a dress you’ll love. You can check in and ask if something you are debating doing is a good decision or a bad decision; If you should do something now or wait.
Confirmation
You can use spiritual guidance to gauge how you’re doing and progressing. Ask Spirit for signs of confirmation you are on the right path. Spirit will show you resounding yes’s but you can also ask to see a specific sign like a purple jaguar or a ladybug as a sign of confirmation.
Information
You can use spiritual guidance to receive information and ideas. Ask Spirit to guide you to information you need. They will point you to a knowledgeable person, podcast episode or deliver wisdom in your dreams.
Comfort
You can use spiritual guidance to be comforted in times of need. Ask to receive comfort. They will send you a sign, a feeling, or a bird perfectly perched next to you to help raise your spirit and fill your heart. They’ll remind you, you are not alone and overwhelm you with their love.
This is definitely not an exhaustive list by any means, but these requests help develop your relationship with Spirit, discerning how you receive messages while also enhancing your skills.
No matter what you are asking Spirit for, they will communicate to you in the ways you notice and understand. This can be through physical sensations, through overhearing what someone says, songs, animals, letters or signs you read around you etc. For more information on the different ways Spirit communicates with you, check out the Beginners Guide to Spiritual Awakening.
After you've asked for help, keep all of your senses open to receiving. It may take a few moments or a few weeks. Stay relaxed and have fun as Spirit delivers.
