A psychic artist painted the picture of a spirit guide of mine, after I provided her with my handwriting, and also gave me a reading from my guide which was quite poignant and to the point.
I believe that he is one of my guides and I have his picture framed and is hanging in my bedroom...... Now.....I cant say I am in communication with him as some of you have described it in here...... chit-chatting, talking, conversing and so on......

How come a psychic artist would 'see' my spirit guide (or one of them) and not me.?

What do you think of such artists presenting you with a picture of your spirit guide?

There is, however, one really spookey thing about this particular guide's painting: he looks like my auntie (on my father's side) and a bit like my father. I should say a lot like my auntie and father. So much so that when I showed the painting to my brother, he immediately said; Wow, that's auntie so and so...

What do you make of this? Anyone with similar experience?

blessings.

Your loved ones and relatives will NEVER be your spirit guides.  Perhaps the artists did not identify the difference carefully.

I have had my spirit guide done in charcoal.  Later the energy of attunement felt right and I got some confirmation for myself.  I work on energy rather than identity as such.

Not everyone is actually doing the chat thing with a spirit guide.  They have work to do and take their role seriously and some of the explanations of chit chat sound a bit frivilous to me.  But we do design our own mediumship based on this partnership with spirit and how it will work between us for comfort and trust.

Thank you Spirittalk..... this artist does not know me..... has not seen me....... and does not know my relatives... but I thought the resembalance of the painting to my family member(s) was uncanny...

The psychic artist that did the work for me does not guarantee who will come through - a loved one, a guide, etc.  The first one she did for me was my sister - absolutely no doubt in my mind.  Unfortunately in a move I have lost it.  The next one she did was at my request for my spirit guide to hang in a new church endeavour.  And while at a meeting there, she drew another guide that oversees the church activities - he has been seen in the circles that we have as well as being channelled by a couple of us.

that is amazing to know about cat's eye,eucalyptus oil,pictures of spirit guides by some artists etc.
In India people believe in God's photos.Where there is God photo,there the protection is there.In some places they worship their Guru's(Master's) photos who guide them towards God.In some places it is seen that vibhoothi(ash made from cowdung),honey coming from their Guru's photo.Some people has experiences of aquaintances with their Guru even after the Guru has left His physical body!They tell that Guru is always guiding them in their works.
