7. trying to contact your spirit via pendulum, communication boards? remember to always use protection. not only will you feel more comfortable in knowing that it is your spirit communicating with you, but it helps keep out trickster and low level entities from interfering and wreaking havoc.

Being pretty much a newby myself and wanting to try communicating with my baby dragon with a pendulum after reading this I tried using the "search thinggy" to try finding a protection spell for it and nothing plus nothing on the Protection Section aside from ash's ultimate protection which for those like me that want to keep a low profile in the house is kinda hard to do ;1 . So I'd like to suggest adding to the post a protection spell or a link to one somewhere hidden in the forum or something like that if if possible for this case. 8|

"when can i expect my spirit to manifest?" "how do i connect." "what spirits are good for........." and these are all great questions. if you noticed in this section CH has made several wonderful reference threads on many of these questions that you may be asking now, with others that may even answer some other questions that you may want to know. even then we know that there still may be questions that just don't seem to quite explain what you're asking and that's ok, we're all here to help, not judge, and share our experiences. :grouphug: here's a few ways that might make your journey easier and enjoyable.

1. familiarize yourself with these threads. they are found at the top of most sections.

2. when asking a question try using the search button (this button is located on the bottom of all the sections to help aid you in your quest) to see if some one hasn't already asked this question. of course there are times that the question may have been asked but because of the wording the search function may not find it. but as a reminder: NEVER BE AFRAID TO ASK A QUESTION, no matter how silly you might think it is. again we're not here to make fun of you, or judge, and surprisingly someone may or may not have that same question and was curious as well.

3. when reading about others experiences keep in mind that you may or may not have that experience with your spirit. DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED OR DISAPPOINTED. everyone's experiences are their own. everyone's spirits may or may not have the same personality traits as well, and everyone's interactions with their spirit is different as well.

4. one of the most frequent questions is "how do i connect with my spirit?" not only is the article that CH wrote giving great tips, but there is also a section dedicated with connecting with your spirit and tips on meditation.

5. a helpful tip: when asking for advice in a thread.... take into consideration everyone's opinion, not just one person's (with the exception of CH and ASH-MADA, since they are MASTERS at what they do). remember what works for one person may or may not work for you, and just because they are a certain color doesn't mean that they are any more knowledgeable than a new member who may have been collecting for years and just recently found CH. a color is a way of knowing who has been with CH for a certain amount of time, not by knowledge. by taking in EVERYONE'S opinion you get to see different points of views as to how we as a forum perceive and experience things individually.

6. spirit not manifesting? can't understand why you aren't seeing, feeling, sensing, etc like others on the forum? again remember we are all going to have different experiences with our spirits. some of us may have shut off our abilities and can't experience our spirit the same way that X,Y and Z can. DON'T PUT YOURSELF IN A BOX. we are all different. some of us it took years to have any interaction with our spirits, others of us a few days, weeks, and/or even months. it varies from person to person and the individual's spirit. also look at little signs, things that make you go "hmmmm." this may or may not be your spirit trying to get your attention.

7. trying to contact your spirit via pendulum, communication boards? remember to always use protection. not only will you feel more comfortable in knowing that it is your spirit communicating with you, but it helps keep out trickster and low level entities from interfering and wreaking havoc.

again welcome to the forum and hope you enjoy your own personal journey. you're in for a wild ride.
