Guides may come in animal form if that is an acceptable way of learning for you. You may learn a lot by studying them. Dolphins have been guides to many people in this earth plane. They are spiritual guides of incredible intelligence, compassion, joy and play. Cats to me have always been special guide creatures and I enjoy immensely studying my cat and the others that I have come across. They are very independent and sometimes at the same time can be so needy. They will ask you right away to give them what they want. They almost always let you know what is on their mind.

They genuinely believe that they are worthy of being adored. My cat, Reiki Boy also enjoys being seduced. It's like a romance. He initiates contact and then walks just out of my reach, when he knows that I'm really putting myself out to reach him, he comes a little closer and lets me pat his head only. Then he walks away again but with great awareness of me. The game once again, the art of seduction and how far apart can he go, and when will he let me stroke his body. After another moment, he comes close and I can stroke him for as long as I want. After eight years he still likes the romance.

He is guide to me on so many levels. The way he is with his natural psychic ability in which he simply trusts himself gives me clues as to how I might behave with my psychic ability. He is also a very gentle and compassionate soul. He puts people at ease almost immediately with his friendliness and openness. He is a good listener. He never holds grudges. As a matter of fact he easily forgets most small disagreements we have. He has taught me many things about rituals. For an example when he is about to eat he meticulously licks his bowl to prepare for his breakfast or dinner. After eating and before he goes to bed he meticulously cleans himself from head to toe.

When he is tired he goes into his little house and naps for as long as he needs to revitalize himself. He doesn't struggle with doubt of whether he should do something. He just does it. When I have created a law for him and he clearly knows that I don't want him to do something, if he really wants to he will do it anyway. He makes clear choices knowing there will be consequences.

He truly feels the pleasure that he experiencing without any doubt or anxiety such as stretching out and posing in a completely open pose. He doesn't feel any shame. On the contrary he has a very good self-esteem. He easily accepts praise and adoration as if he truly deserves every word, compliment, stroke, and ounce of attention he receives. He believes in his heart that he completely deserves all the nice things that he receives. He makes direct eye contact and he is not afraid of the contact. He also is not selfish and doesn't withhold attention or love; he offers little kisses, hugs, purrs, caresses, blinks of his beautiful green eyes, tricks, meows, and the most incredible beautiful poses that you can imagine. He is so loyal, attentive and patient, he enjoys playing games with me, and he is very quick to make amends or to forgive. He is a great guide for me. Perhaps animals in your life can be guides for you.copyright 2006 Yoga Kat
