I've been having some trouble connecting with entities (usually deities) when I meditate. I have been able to do so in the past (about 3-4 times), but lately, nothing.

I usually meditate by picturing myself in a scene (beach, forest, cliff, etc) and immersing myself in the scene.

A few nights ago I had a meditation where I swear a male deity was besideme on the beach.But whenever I tried to look at Him, I was unable to; He would simply not be there. All I could see was coastline. But I could feel His presence via my intuition; I just couldn't look at or communicate with Him.

If it's worth noting, I have never been able to speak with deities via meditation. Usually when They came, They would do something, like pat my head or hug me, but I have never heard Them speak.

I wonder if I might be "blocking" Them somehow from showing Themselves, or if something else is happening? I'd appreciate any insight.
