In the physical world, information is easier to interpret as we can examine objects, get clarity with questions, or investigate using resources. As for the spiritual world, which is all around us and communicating constantly. We first need to recognize that what we are sensing is information and not just our imagination.
Spirit likes to communicate using your knowledge, all the information we have stored up so far. Spiritual information can come using any of the six senses: sight, taste, smell, touch, sound, and gut feeling. It is helpful to know that the bigger and wild your imagination is, the better your spirit can communicate with you. Symbols are commonly used to rely on information from spirit, using the meaning you have already associated with that symbol.
Some of my first spiritual information came as a knowing, I just know things about people. I did not know it was private information or that it was not to be spoken out loud. I truly thought it was common knowledge or at least not taboo. Another way was through my dreams. Dreaming has helped me to handle difficult situations throughout my life.
For example; when I was having irreconcilable differences with people in my life. I would have a dream about them and wake up understanding their point of view. My feelings of hate would disappear and I would find internal peace, having workout out a disagreement without having to confront the other person.
Helpful Advice
What has helped me to better understand spiritual information, was expanding my knowledge on the subject. Learning how other people understand it and use it in their lives. Trusting the information that comes in and knowing the difference between your inner thoughts and thoughts put there to inform you. Not every sensation you are feeling is from some mysterious illness not yet diagnosed. Sometimes it is Spirit, trying to inform you that something you are doing is good for you or that something you are doing is not working for you.
Journeying is an excellent way to understand your symbols and their meanings, also what is your original thought or from outside you. I know journeying sounds like work, but writing my dreams down and my fantom sensations helped me to understand what was me and what has spirit.
