I Am Soaring Free
Several years ago I was gifted my spirit name, Soaring Free, by one of my personal spirit guides of Native American decent. I have been reflecting on this for the past few weeks, as I am entering a new phase of my spirituality and higher consciousness.
Back In 2004, I had crossed a personal line in my life where self-esteem, confidence, happiness and self-love were basically non-existent. When I speak to my clients about the struggles or confusion they face on their life path and spiritual journey, or in their careers or relationships, I completely understand. I have been there myself, and I have experienced more than most. Fortunately, I have been able to overcome those challenges and I now know that anyone can overcome adversity.

Every person has at least three spirit guides in their life. There are others that come and go, however the primary three will stay with you throughout your life and are available for assistance at all times. It was my main guide that gave me my spirit name, while I was in a dream-like state during a Reiki treatment. I was to be known as “Soaring Free.” My life was to change direction and I was to live it as if every day I was soaring free, like an eagle. There were many profound messages that came that day and it awakened me. It brought me to a higher level of understanding (and some confusion) than ever before.
What did this name mean? What was the significance? Why did I need it? Were these guides who entered my life real, or my imagination? Did I hear correctly, or was it simply my subconscious giving me messages? I had many questions at that time and thus my in-depth journey began.
What I soon learned was that when other birds are pecking at an eagle in the air, it is able to soar higher than any of the other birds to get away from them. Is this running away? No, it is simply letting go of those that are insignificant in my journey. It is putting the small things or negative things below and letting them dissipate into thin air, as I soar higher and higher on my journey. An eagle can also see the tiniest creature from a distance, far beyond what our human eyes can see. This signifies my ability to see beyond what the human eyes can see.
I had many roadblocks to release – most of them self-created. There was abuse, pain, suffering, loss, and so much more I carried inside of me. It was suffocating me. I could not speak my truth, I could not take back my power from anyone and I often hid from the world. My guides finally had enough of my self-pity and self-sabotaging ways and sent this message with such amazing power and grace that I had to listen.
You are now free from all encumbrances. You alone are responsible for the life you create. You are the only one that has the choice to move forward in life and live your best life, or stay stagnant in the past and live no life. You are to start using your gifts to help others. You are to move forward one step at a time. Not by leaps, simply by steps. You are to start your new life, today. You will be known as “Soaring Free” from this moment on. You are loved little one, you are loved.
And from Humming-Bird to Eagle, the daily existence of every bird is a remote and bewitching mystery ~ Thomas Wentworth Higginson
This message was profound and life-altering. From that moment on, I took many steps to change where I was coming from, to release all that held me back and to allow their messages to flow to me and through me.
As my life continued, I would talk to my guides and wait for answers. I would write down whatever I was given, in their words and without analyzing the words as I wrote. So many of the messages were profound and often I would receive answers to questions that I asked.
When I became comfortable with this, I changed direction and gave them permission to connect with me on an even higher level, so I could work with others, whether it be through a psychic reading, Reiki practice or spiritual counseling. When I asked for anything that was for my highest good, it was always given. If I asked for something outside of my highest good, it was not. I grew to learn how to ask, what words to use and how to listen.
In 2008, I was at a low point in my life. After being at the funeral home every Friday night for seven weeks in a row, I finally asked for a stronger sign that everything was going to be okay. I had lost two very close friends, one to a heart attack and one to a freak truck accident. Close friends lost their daughter-in-law and grandson to a car accident. Then my mother-in-law passed, as well as my step-son. He took his own life and left behind my two little grandsons and his wonderful wife. The final straw, was the passing of my father. I could take no more.
I knew that death simply means that the soul leaves the physical body and the spirit is always alive. I knew they could all be contacted when needed. However, during the process of doing the estates of my mother-in-law and my father, I finally broke down. I was tired, devastated and falling apart.
On the way to my father’s house, I was frustrated, in tears and thought was I ready to let it all go. I asked my guides to please give me a sign to show me I was doing the right thing. I asked them to send me a big bird. As I drove down the highway, a black helicopter flew up from a field and right over my head and it truly got my attention. I thanked my guides and continued to my dad’s place, where I worked for the rest of the day.
I know God will not give me anything I can’t handle. I just wish that He didn’t trust me so much ~ Mother Teresa
On my way home, in the exact spot that the helicopter had come out of the field, I looked to the lake side of the road and two beautiful eagles were sitting in a tree overlooking the lake. My guides had gifted me these two eagles, who I named after my parents, to let me know every day that I was doing the right thing and to give me strength to soar above the pain, doubts and fear. I understood.
When the job at my parent’s home was done, the eagles disappeared and only came back on occasion, when I needed reassurance, strength or courage. Again, the message, “You are Soaring Free” came to me. I now understood why I was given this name and the eagle, red tail hawk and owl became my consistent totems to go with my new name.
When you wish to connect with your guides, simply sit in silence for a few minutes and say, “Thank you (name of guide) for coming to assist me today with (fill in the blank). I appreciate all the answers you give me, the opportunities you provide and the new doors you open.” When asking for assistance from your spirit guides, you are not technically asking a question. You are manifesting what you need or desire by affirmation, gratitude and the knowing that all will be done for your Highest good.
Have you connected with your three spirit guides? Have you given them permission to assist you in all that you do? Are you moving forward and living life according to your highest good? Do you know what your spirit totems are and what each one means? I can help you follow this path. I can help you find the names of your prominent spirit guides and the purpose that each one has in your life.
Remember that when you are in crisis, your guides are there. When you are happy, they are there. When you are gifted, they are helping to increase the blessing. Your guides are there to enhance your life and to aid you through the rough patches. They will not prevent the rough patches (or life lessons as they are called) however they will not leave you alone during your time of growth.
