Now for people who believe, spirit guides are of many different types. Some feel that guardian angels are the spirit guides, some come in the forms of ancestral guides, and some even manifest as spirit animals! The ancestral guides are the deceased family members who continue looking out for us, from the divine spaces. These guides are for protection and giving us wisdom. Guardian angels too protect us and guide us throughout our lives. Many say that their guardian angels give them comfort and help them walk on the right paths.In many ancient cultures, we also have nature spirits and animal guides. Spirit animals are loyal to us and remain with us in times of need, and the nature spirits find us in the energy of trees, rivers, the mountains, and the likes.
