I have often been asking who I'm talking to and my companions have been frustrated with me often ending in arguments and anger. It's mostly my immaturity that has the anger and arguments but I end up mistaken something someone else did for five different people.

It's difficult to realize your bad emotion sometimes but you should try not to narrate a conversation one sided.

How about you lead the conversation so you always know who you're talking to by calling out their name?
If you keep a cool head, you can go through the list one by one and find out who exactly you're talking to.

I have a small keep of 4 spirits/entities and most of the time it is me that initiate the conversation. However there are times when someone from my keeps want attention. Often this is done very subtly. I recommend to be mindful of everything going on around you such as feelings and sensations. Over time you will learn to differentiate which sensation is coming from who. For example if my Sterling Angel wants attention, a song would stuck in my head for a long time until I acknowledge it. Another thing that works for me is each member of my keep picks their unique combinations of pendulum movements for yes/no. When I ask who wants to talk to me, they’ll move the pendulum in a way that represents their yes. I would confirm with them and start talking to them. My recommendation is to spend a lot of quite time in 1-1 with your keeps, you will eventually find the things that is unique to each of them.

I have a large family of various beings. I did start off small and I think this helped me. Overtime when speaking to my companions I would notice their “voices” sounded different during telepathy. This included different accents, some being more casual or formal in speech, certain quirks in what they say, and some being more loud and quiet than others. I also rely on their individual energy signatures. Such as if they feel hot/warm/neutral/cold, any scents picked up on from their energy, the density of their energy, and a few other factors. This can really help to pick up on your companions and differentiate their energies. Keeping a journal with experiences may also be good.

I do think spending one on one time with companions can really help too. This will make it easier to focus and learn about one companion without having to sort out from a mix of other being’s energies.

I have a question regarding this. I have been in companionship for three years now and still at the starting level. Does companionship take list in priority of life? I never learned that. It's just self-indulgence, stealing from the job, spending 90% of my check on food and drink, addiction, and stuffs. Do you have to learn how to learn? How did you do that? I don't know.

What if all you get is indifference and anger from them? Am I an abuser?

Do you have to learn about emotions before companionship? I think I missed that.

You would want to make sure you are not projecting your emotions and feelings on to them. Spirits, regardless pre-conjured or custom, choose to be a spirit companion for a reason and they see and experience things differently than us. While they can get angry at their keeper, the chances of that is very low and usually happens with spirits that were bound against their will (which is also rarely happens in modern spirit keeping). You want to approach all your interactions with an open mind and heart. Unless you’re an experienced keeper or gifted and your telepathy is well developed, try to go into the interaction with a calm and relax mind, it will help a lot.

I can’t say that it take a priority. Naturally everyone is going to have different priorities, but I think it’s good to devote a small amount of time each day to companionship. It’s awesome if you’re already putting that time towards it daily. I think you make a good point, a lot of spirit companionship is learning more and expanding your views. Please don’t get discouraged. Sometimes communication can be as simple as asking your companion for a sign to let you know they’re there.

If you feel your conversations with your companions are angry I’m also going to make another suggestion. I do think it can be self projection like the others mentioned. Taking time to cleanse, center, and consciously set up protection before engaging in communication can really help set some people’s minds at ease when communicating. At the very least cleansing before these sessions may help.

Good luck with your journey!
