Yes, to many people, performing the role of guiding or healing spirits is a form of lightwork. Indeed, it is often cited as the most typical form of such spiritual work. Most people who do this sort of work will be driven by an understanding of those around them that connects them to the Earth and the wider universe through a universal consciousness. Because they are aware that their spirit – or soul – is interconnected with that of everyone and everything else, they will often use their perceptiveness to help others make similar connections. Given that this sort of work will often be described as bringing light into the hearts of others or – in some religious senses – revealing the light to them, this is one of the most archetypal forms of lightwork you could find. Of course, someone does not need to be a professional spiritual guide to be a lightworker. Anyone who helps others formally or informally in this way could be said to be a lightworker.
