For the purposes of this discussion, assume that dream guides are either the manifestation of one's personality aspects given free reign within one's dreams so as to introduce one to one's dreaming abilities more gradually, a separate spirit that takes the form of a benevolent in-dream being, or something similar.

Okay, so, a while back I encountered a potential dream guide in the form of a zanpakuto (the sentient spirit swords from Bleach). I got a name, but couldn't quite tell the pronunciation. Recently, it turned out that one of the mispronunciations was an archaic or, more recently, rude form of the word "you" in Japanese. "She" may have been addressing me formally, and then became annoyed when I (living in the present) used it, meant it semi-insultingly and became annoyed when I thought it was "her" name, or I simply mispronounced her actual name in a way that was insulting.

My question is, does anyone have suggestions on how to contact a dream guide or summon their object form when they are "unhappy" with you, and tend to "ignore your calls"? Any suggestions for how to offer recompense, or some form of apology like a fruit basket or muffin basket with a meaningful card, only for a spiritual entity? If it helps, I distinctly got the idea of "her" "spirit form" being either white tiger, or one of the many potentially white-furred creatures in japanese mythology that can be part tiger (nue, for example, though more tiger-y than baboon-y). I already have a couple of ideas (for the second question, not the first), but any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Also, my default message for any questions I have about actions withing dreams: Do not say "Say 'show me: my dream guide,'" or anything of the sort, without any other relevance. I've tried that, it never works for me, and it's been less constant lately but it used to be that someone (or even multiple people) would post the exact same thing, often to the word, and it. is. not. helpful. Just saying, I've already seen these, so it's not constructive to post it here.

See the last section of this post for detailed backstory.

If anyone requires information to assist in this that i have not provided here, I will provide any reasonable information at request that I agree to be relevant.
