i have a native american/indian man as a spirit guide.  i see the outline of his figure every night in my bedroom and in the day i see the vibrant blue colours he has around him and often see him standing in my hallway.  i've seen him so clear that i've drawn him and my sister freaked out once when she saw him follow me downstairs.

the thing is, he intimidates me.  does that sound daft?  i'm scared of him.  he's so serious, he never smiles and never seems to relax.  his energy is very intense and i can't communicate very comfortably with him because of this intimidation and fear which is frustrating me.

We are having a spirit guide about COMMUNICATION.  Why aren't you communicating and telling him to back off?  It might just be that he is not a real spirit guide and you may need help to move him on into spirit realms.  But the first step is communication.

hey spiritalk,  not sure i understand this;  'We are having a spirit guide about COMMUNICATION'.  but how do you suggest i go about communicating with him?

If you are aware he is there (seeing, hearing, etc.) you are using your senses and he is impressing you.  Talk to him.  Ask him if he is your guide.  Or you could ask what does he want.  Exchange a verbal (in your head or out loud) dialogue to get him letting you know what is going on.  As he is disembodied there is not much he can do to you.

ok, i'll give it a go. thanks for the advice.
