Quick Answers to Quick Questions Part 4

Hi Erin,

I really enjoyed reading these! This response resonated with me the most regarding how to tune in to guides, angels, etc.:

"Tuning in is usually the easy part. The hard part is trusting that you are tuned in to the being you’re trying to communicate with, being able to interpret and understand what you’re receiving, and having the confidence to act upon it. Unfortunately it’s beyond the scope of this article to go into the kind of detail we’d need to go into, but I would say to continue to have long conversations with your guides (the longer you go the more tuned in you will be), write down what they’re telling you or showing you, act on it, and see what results you get. You can also ask your guides to help you tune in better, then get out of your own way (and your own logic) and let them show you how to hear them best." EP

I find that the issue of trust is so key with these relationships. I find that my fear gets in the way of me trusting. This past year I have had some really profound life changing dreams (the ones that you don't even really need to interpret because just having them is illuminative and healing enough) and have received great guidance from my guides and since this is the first time I have actually tried to contact them and have a more conscious relationship (besides when I was a little girl) I have to admit, I kinda got freaked out. But I heeded their guidance particularly with certain issue I was going through and though it wasn't easy to face what I had to face it ended up being the best thing. I usually work with them through automatic writing and rely on my runner guides more auditorally to help me find things. I would also like to be able to tune in more to them whether I am doing automatic writing or not. I will definitely ask them to help me tune in better. Great advice! I found these quick answers to these questions to be brief but very thorough. I will definitely giv these all a few re-reads. Happy New Year!

Erin, it's not my place to tell you what to do, but please reconsider killing spiders. Watch Charlotte's Web for inspiration if that helps. (If they are black widows, and you don't trust your kids or pets to leave them alone, that's another matter.)

That was mostly a joke. Along with opening my own jars.

Thank you for the article Erin. I was wondering about free will because it worked a few times that just through prayer/good thoughts/whatever name they can be called, did work. Angels seems to work well with me, I once asked for the well-being of a mother-to-be after a rude doctor told her to go home and wait to miscarry (she just gave birth to a beautiful boy, so much for the doctor's opinion), I guess she also prayed in her own way for this not to happen so the joined prayers worked. They often seem to, i won't bore you enumerating.
The only time it didn't is when i asked protection for my sister (we live continents apart) against a stalker. I guess Archangel Michael at least kept her from getting physically hurt but it didn't stop the stalker from following her every steps for two years until a psychic told her to ask for protection and she finally did (later on she told me she was too drunk and stoned to bother understanding my letter about Indigos, Archangel Michael and how to sever etheric cords ).

So as you say, the person can accept or reject the help offered.

I loved the part about your discovering parts of yourself buried in your relationship.

Phew. I guess I should have known seeing as you're a vegan and all. By the way, I loved your Star Wars reference.

[Erin Pavlina]

Thanks. I try to sprinkle in a little humor now and again

Funny, I felt like I was called to read this a month ago. I read the series and it's worth the effort to go through it. It has fused together a lot of different influences into something that appeals to me holistically. It's almost like I have been called to teach part of it.

There were some parts of the series where I felt uncomfortable and it felt repetitive in parts, but all in all it is a worthy read.

Have you read A Course in Miracles yet? It's another great book but it is tough to read - I had to make sure that I stopped after each chapter.

[Erin Pavlina]

Haven't read course in miracles. I think I sat down to read it once and it was too involved. I'll start with CWG and see where it takes me.

I found the question if staying with lower vibration people lowers your vibration very useful. Me and my sister are complete opposites. When I am holding a certain intention, she has the knack of asking, "what if it does not happen?"

Good to know that I have a choice. It is certainly going to take some practice to hold my own vibration when I am with her.

[Weena]

I read somewhere in your blog that you believe time is an illusion and our 'past lives' are happening all at once... the exact same idea is in CWG...that's why i really think you will enjoy the read you might agree with a lot of things in there...

[Erin Pavlina]

Oh cool. It will be great to see if I do agree with what is said in that book. I love validation from other peeps.
