A down-to-earth businesswoman with a quick sense of humor, Coral Montana, author of the new book, 'Another Place, Another Time: the Reincarnation of Crazy Horse', candidly discusses her riveting experiences with the spirit world, and how she learned about her past life as the legendary Sioux warrior Crazy Horse. Montana also has a very close relationship with her spirit guide, Maryanne, who with the help of many other spirits, taught her about this fascinating past life.
My spirit guide, Maryanne, first made herself directly known to me about four years ago, when I was learning about spirit guides from books. At first I thought that she could only help me out in the short-term: tell me where I had put things which I had misplaced, remind me of things I had forgotten to do, help find parking spots for me when we were out, and help me find where things were in the shops. But as the months went on, she started telling me about things that were to happen in my future, or that a certain problem would be over by a certain date. Things in my life started to work out as she had predicted, and I realized that she knew everything that was in my life chart.
My relationship with Maryanne has made me believe more and more in what the spirit world has to teach us, that everything in our lives is already planned. From birth to death we meet the people we are supposed to meet at the times we are meant to. They go out of our lives at the time they are meant to. I look back on things that happened to me a long time ago and can now see that every relationship, good or bad, taught me something. The lessons we are meant to learn happen at the exact time we have chosen. We quite often have to overcome problems and difficulties before we can appreciate the good things that come out of them.
I know I am luckier than most to be able to have a guide with whom I can communicate so well, as I never feel alone. It is like having a friend with me constantly. The hardest thing for me is to remember that no one sees Maryanne, and that no one else can hear her. Because I hear her so clearly I talk out loud to her all the time, which is fine while I'm alone, but in public I get some strange looks, so I have to try to remember to talk telepathically when we are out.
People say to me, "I wish I could hear my spirit guide and get messages." I tell them that they need to take the time to listen - people who are blessed enough with spirituality need to give it the time it takes to develop it. Everyone gets messages from their guide. Maybe not everyone hears their guide like I do, but the messages are there, and so is the help. The help might come when you have over-slept your alarm and all of a sudden something wakes you up just in time. That is your guide. You may have forgotten an important appointment and all of a sudden you remember. That is your guide. You all of a sudden remember to buy milk on the way home. That is your guide. So although you may not hear them they still communicate with you in so many ways.
I know that Maryanne has played a huge part in me learning about my past lives. I know it was her that put the idea of reincarnation in to my head in the first place. I know I was meant to buy all the spiritual books that I did so I could find out about our guides and how they work, so that I could learn about her existence and communicate well with her and learn so much from her. She would have been around in spirit with me when I wrote my life chart. She would have known the things I had planned to do with my life and how I had chosen to learn of my last life.
Maryanne was the one who suggested the title for my book Another Place, Another Time. Only recently, over twelve months from when she suggested it, I have learnt from her that they were my own words. She told me one day quite casually that I promised my Lakota friends that I would return to them in another place, at another time. They were my exact words. Why she never told me that when she first suggested it I don't know. The spirit world tells you things only when they want to. Even if you ask them something they will not tell you unless they are ready, and they feel you are ready to hear it.
I'm sure some people wonder why their guides don't stop bad things happening to them. The answer is simple: you wrote your own script. Your guide just goes along for the ride, to make sure your life goes along as you planned it. If someone has chosen to die at thirty, your guide can't stop that from happening and let you live until you're seventy. They are merely your guides. Without them we would be lost in a world of negativity. They are your true friends. They never let you down. They still love you even if you know nothing of what they do to help you.
Nothing in life is a coincidence or an accident. It is all planned, and your guides will be a part of it with you from birth to death. I know because I have experienced it firsthand and continue to do so. I have learnt so much on how the spirit world works, how karma works and how our life charts work - and for all that, I thank my best friend Maryanne.
