While each one of these is very unique and has its own ways of communicating not everyone is aware of that. A lot of people confuse the voice of their ego for their intuition guiding them towards something and this needs to stop.
Below I am going to go over each and the ways in which each chooses to communicate with us. This will help you to better understand what it is you are face to face with and how it should be handled. While not all of them are as interesting as you might want them to be they all need to be known.
The Voice Of Your Ego
The voice of your ego is going to be much more prominent than the others. It is a manifestation of your desires and so, of course, it will be louder. It will want to talk about the things you want and how to get them, the things you are stressed about and why they need to change. It will be a judgy and harsh voice that wants to better you through any means necessary. It will not care who is squashed getting to the top.
The Ego wants to prove your unworthiness by making sure you know everything that is wrong with who you are and seeks to be heard more-so than the rest. It is sometimes useful but always something we should not give power to. It will point out your flaws and is everything that the other two on this list are not.
Your Intuition
Your intuition will be either a slight feeling or a full-on whisper, it just depends. For most, it is a feeling. Now, if you have a strong intuition it will be a strong feeling but it will not offer the same things to you that the Ego does. Your intuition will work to remove you from dangerous situations and provide you with a little bit of added protection.
If you are stressed and unable to continue on your intuition will come to you right before you go off the edge to remind you that you can take a break if you need one. Sadly most people ignore their intuition and because of that end up stepping right off the edge. We should always listen to our intuition as it is our subconscious which is truly connected to the source. That ‘fight or flight’ isn’t there for no reason.
Your Spirit Guides
Now, this is the most misinterpreted of the three. When your spirit guide talks to you it won’t always be on the terms you think it will and it almost always won’t be literal speaking. Your spirit guide will bring forth small meaningful messages for you to notice. If you aren’t looking close enough you will miss them and sometimes even if you see them you won’t know what they mean. You have to read between the lines when it comes to a spirit guide.
