Developing Awareness?

It seems things are stepping up a gear or two for me.

Driving along the other day and thinking about a series of connected events which had happened to me recently, going over them in my mind, questioning what had happened and trying make sense of what the sum of these events was.
I began to be aware of answers arriving in my head which although not what what I necessarily might want to hear I somehow felt them to be the truth. I felt as though the answers just arrived in my mind as knowledge.

So I continued on my line of thought and questions and before long it transpires I'm having a conversation with Archangel Metatron!

Now this is far from an everyday event for me. Indeed, although I've attempted contact with higher spirits before I never really felt I had much success, until the previous day that is when I was able to speak with Archangel Michael in meditation.
This time I also felt the answers to my questions coming to me as knowledge, I would receive the answer in my mind just as though it was being placed there fully formed without the need for words. I was saying to Archangel Michael how I was feeling frustrated at my attempts to communicate with spirit. He reassured me that I am always heard and spirit always replies, it's just that I don't hear because I'm not well practiced enough at listening. The more I keep communicating with higher beings the easier it will be for me to hear.

For the past few weeks I've been feeling surges of energy through my head hands and feet. At the time I wasn't sure what was happening, I just let it happen. In the light of these recent events I think I've been receiving a kind of upgrade to my spiritual awareness and openness in the form of divine energy which has left me more open to hearing messages and guidance.

Am I going mad? No, I don't think so but is this how it starts. Am I starting to be able to hear the guidance I've been looking for.

I share this both in the hope that it might encourage others at a similar level to me who feel they are struggling to hear their own guidance, and that some of the more experienced among you might remember how it was when you first started to receive messages and can reassure me I'm on the right track.

Thanks for reading
