Guardian are with us for life.  They often are referred to as the doorkeeper.  The doorkeeper is the spirit that stands guard over all activities of the spirit.  The lessons learned, the approach taken, are all under the guidance of the guardian.  

When we first begin our psychic lessons, we are seeking to reach our spirit guides who will bring their expertise to work with us in psychic abilities.  The doorkeeper is usually the first to arrive on the scene as he is concerned with who will bring what message.  

Identity and/or names, cultures, etc. are not as important as the 'feeling' you have (and it is most evident in the times of crisis) when you are guarded from an unwanted energy.  It is all about energy work.  When attuned to the spirit world through meditation, the energy shifts are the things of note.  Work with the energy!

First of all I am so glad I have found this place.........
Spirittalk, I have read many of your replys and have thought how wonderful a soul you are. Abright and Shining Light on a dark and dreary day.  On this doorkeeper matter... I have a couple questions.  I have a very large Warrior who comes to me when I am in for a signifigant change in my life or to be warned of a Physical damage to me.  (Deaths in the family, I had cut my foot severly, accidents about to happen etc.)  Would he be one of my doorkeepers or a Guardian angel of sorts OR are they all in the same?
I have been told of the angel who watches over me altho I cannot remember his name, (ashkira maybe?)   and yet I do have guides that visit me. I am still very new to all of this , learning as I go... I have been told many things my many people and really dont know wether to believe any of it. LOL   Getting of the point tho.   Have a wonderful day, I hope the sun is always shining for you,  Brekka

I am a firm believer there are many strata of spirit helpers.  And so much literature has been written and available to describe it in the author's understanding.  We all have our own ideas.  I think maybe the important aspect is in our abilities to know our helpers are here and to work WITH them not AGAINST them in our life purposes.

Guardians sign on for life and is a strong personal energy.

Angels come in more emergency situations (see the angel literature on this)

Spirit guides are there when we are sensitive to their presence.  After all, if a materialist was not using their creativity or sensitivity to attune to spirit realms, why stay around in hopes of being acknowledged?  They will and do work with us, impressing all kinds of information - but it is important that we know it and perhaps even thank them for their efforts.

As soon as we are prepared to listen to our own inner sensitive intuition, there is spirit help available.  But spirit guides are human beings who have lived a material life and know how easy it is to get caught up in material pulls of interests.  Spirit interests tend to take a back seat to material interests.

As we attune in our own individual way (meditation is a wonderful key) many helpers are available.  Identifying and working on only the names tends to limit rather than open this communication.  Be open to energy and how it changes around the helpers as they come and go.

The doorkeeper/gatekeeper is your main guide. This guide is in control of all that enter to communicate. This guide will regulate the proper guide to the proper situation/question. I utilize my gatekeeper in my readings as we must remember that we are the authority and the guide is there to assist us and teach us.  I insist that my gatekeeper not allow anyone in without identifying them in a reading. For example, if I have some one that has passed on that wants to leave a validation for the sitter, my Guide Mahaya must be able to tell me that this is a grandmother. If an identity isn't given, I do not trust the communication and refuse to listen.  Also I request that my gatekeeper keep to my left and Omniel (I work with angels as well) stand at my left. If my visitor comes from my left I know that this person is in spirit. If the visitor comes to my right, I know that this is a person in body.

What worked for me to meet my gatekeeper was to keep the clear intention, and each evening I ended my day in a prayer of my choosing and a meditation with my third eye open. After a time I would naturally fall asleep. One night in the middle of the night I was awakened by three sharp raps. I immediately awoke, and then knew instantly who it was telepathically. I said to myself, "I am ready" when I shut my eyes I saw a very dark, muscular person that appeared to be female with very short hair. The clothing looked African tribal, however this guide was carrying a clipboard. At that time I had never heard of a gatekeeper, but instantly understood the meaning of the clipboard.

Everyone's experience is unique, as we and our guides are all are unique. Meditation and intention will be eventually successful for most.
