We’ve all had those moments—when a stranger steps in at just the right time, when a door closes but something better opens, or when we feel an invisible pull guiding us down a different path. While some call it fate or intuition, what’s really happening may be far more divine.
Behind the scenes of your everyday life, two powerful forces are always at work: your guardian angel and your spirit guide. While these spiritual companions are often confused, they serve very different purposes—and knowing the difference could change the way you understand the signs, synchronicities, and subtle nudges you experience every day.
What’s the Difference Between a Spirit Guide and a Guardian Angel?
At first glance, both spirit guides and guardian angels seem to serve a similar role: they protect, guide, and assist us. But their origins and purposes couldn’t be more different.
Guardian angels are celestial beings created by God. They’ve never lived a human life. They exist to comfort, protect, and shield you from danger. Think of them as your spiritual bodyguard—ever-present, always divine, and purely angelic.
Spirit guides, on the other hand, have walked this Earth. They’ve lived, struggled, succeeded, and grown. They know what it’s like to make mistakes, chase dreams, and feel heartbreak. And now, from the other side, they’ve chosen to walk beside you—guiding you through life with the wisdom they earned from their own journey.
How Your Spirit Guide Chose You
Before you were born, you met your spirit guide. Yes—met. In the spirit world, your soul sat down with the soul who would accompany you in this life. They chose you because they understood your purpose, your potential, and your path.
Most people assume their spirit guide is a deceased relative—but in most cases, it’s not. Your spirit guide is often someone who passed long before you were born. They’re not typically blood-related, and chances are, you’ve never met them in this life. But they know you. They understand the terrain you’re walking—and they’re qualified to guide you through it.
What Spirit Guides Actually Do
Your spirit guide is like a spiritual life coach. They’re the one gently (and sometimes not so gently) nudging you in the right direction. While your angel protects you, your spirit guide is busy setting the stage for your next opportunity.
They:
- Open doors when the timing is right
- Close them when it’s not
- Arrange powerful meetings and life-changing moments
- Push you to grow through challenges
- Stay with you from birth to your last breath
And they don’t give up on you. Even when you do.
A True Story from the Other Side
I once read for a man whose life was spiraling due to alcoholism. He was fighting with his family, losing his job, and on the brink of collapse. But something shifted. A man at work—just an ordinary coworker—stepped in and said, “I see where this is going. I’m here to help.” That man became a turning point.
What this client didn’t realize was that it wasn’t random. In our reading, his spirit guide came through. He was a soul who had died from alcoholism, and from the other side, he chose to come back to stop someone else from making the same mistakes. His guide had orchestrated every step—from placing the right person in his path to giving him the strength to change.
Spirit Guides in Your Purpose
Spirit guides don’t just help during crises—they help you fulfill your calling. I once connected with a young dancer who was about to give up on her Broadway dreams. In her reading, her spirit guide revealed herself as a former prima ballerina who had danced in Broadway productions decades earlier. She had returned as this young woman’s guide to inspire her to keep going—and to lead her to the right auditions, mentors, and opportunities.
Whatever your purpose is—medicine, teaching, creativity, healing—your guide is working to make sure you stay aligned, even when doubt creeps in.
Signs Your Spirit Guide is Near
You’ll know your guide is at work when:
- You meet the right people at the right time
- You feel persistent nudges toward a specific path
- Certain opportunities or themes repeat themselves
- You feel inspired (or sometimes pressured) to change
- You’re led toward healing, love, or purpose—even after hardship
And no, they’re not trying to “test” you. They’re showing you the way forward.
Ready to Meet Your Spirit Guide?
For the first time ever, I’m hosting a one-night-only online event where I’ll be connecting only with spirit guides. During this live event, I’ll be sharing how spirit guides work, how they chose you, and delivering live readings where I reveal who your guide is and how they’ve been helping you behind the scenes.
