It’s important to be aware of the ways which a spirit may attempt to contact you; attempts like these usually don’t happen every day—or even in every lifetime—and it would be a shame to miss out if the rare opportunity ever presented itself to you. Spirits must exert large amounts of energy in order to try to contact the living, and they don’t want to waste their time or efforts any more than human beings do. As such, there are specific times and techniques that seem to work better than others, and spirits utilize these the most in order to increase the likelihood of making strong connections. Please read the list below so you have a better idea of what to stay aware of yourself.

#1: Spirits frequently reach-out to you when you’re alone.

Since you’re not distracted by other human beings when you’re alone (or at least not as much as usual), spirits utilize these times and opportunities to make a connection with you. More specifically, very early in the morning or very late at night are particularly optimum for making spiritual connections; human beings tend to be more calm and perceptive to spiritual occurrences at these times, and, again, there are usually less distractions around.

#2: Guardians often visit while you’re sleeping or dreaming.

This is another time and situation when human beings are most capable of perceiving spirits, and even the time when people wake up in the middle of the night is ideal for visitations from guardians. These are times when the mind and the environment are both quiet, so even the slightest physical effort from a spirit has a good chance of being noticed by human beings.

#3: Spirits will try to contact you when you’re going through difficulties in life.

Whether you’re in some type of transition, crisis, reflection, or relationship shift, guardians will attempt to comfort you during these times especially. Even if they know they can’t do much (from their perspective), spirits also know that even something small that they can do will help—and will be worthwhile.

#4: Guardians will reach-out you to you during family events and ceremonies.

Whether it’s at a wedding, an engagement, a birth, a sporting event, a ceremony, a presentation, or anything else similar, spirits will attend these events just as much as the living will, and they will be inspired to reach-out to you just as much during these events as well. However, these are times when spiritual connections are particularly welcomed and comforting, so it’s still quite possible to make these connections amidst all the living chaos.

#5: Spirits will frequently try to contact you when you’re on an adventure or journey.

“Exploration is really the essence of the human spirit.”—Frank Borman

#6: Guardians will often attempt to speak to you when you’re fully exerting yourself physically.

“The purpose of training is to tighten up the slack, toughen the body, and polish the spirit.”—Morihei Ueshiba

#7: Spirits will reach-out to you when you’re truly enjoying yourself, sometimes uncontrollably.

“The person who can bring the spirit of laughter into a room is indeed blessed.”—Bennett Cerf

#8: Guardians will speak to you at times when you feel genuinely free as an individual.

“Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.”—Herbert Hoover

#9: Spirits will frequently contact you when you’re concentrated on succeeding and reaching specific significant goals.

“The eagle has no fear of adversity. We need to be like the eagle and have a fearless spirit of a conqueror!”—Joyce Meyer
