I think that loved ones would have our best intentions in mind. Since they too are spiritual beings, they would advise us in a way that would allow us to be open to those things that would help us grow. Armed with knowledge and experience that we may not have, they would try to help us with the lessons we need to learn in this world and the next The message and method may be different from a spirit guide, but I think the goal is the same for both. Some of us will only listen/hear messages that come from a loved one but I don't believe any would conflict with those of our guides. Keep in mind, our guides may also be loved ones from another life but in our present one, we don't recognize it. Many of the significant people in our present life, were also significant in other lives. Either way, I think our guides know us as well, if not better than our loved ones do since they can see us on a deeper level than others. We all keep parts of ourselves hidden from those around us (and even sometimes ourselves). I believe our guides are not shielded in anyway and they have the ability to see us a whole. It would be difficult to guide us if this knowledge was absent.
