When my Mother died, a few days later ( within the same week of her passing) I was up one night chatting in the lounge with my younger Sister who was living with Mum at that time, it was ‘Mums house’ and we were sat talking. We were both very upset and were trying to comprehend how we’d lost our Mum… which was the only topic of conversation at that time. Suddenly, a huge white moth the size of a very large butterfly came fluttering to the window, relentlessly trying to find it’s way in, I opened the window and let it into the brightly lit room, it fluttered about the room for a few moments and then landed on my chest and stayed there for half an hour so… I couldn’t get over the size of it.
This isn’t my reason for posting today, it’s mid Semptember and I’ve just been overwhelmed by the scent of flowers or perfume or something, very odd as Autumn is near (although my window was open) and it’s the early hours of the morning. I’m a smoker of cigarettes and I smoke in my apartment a fair bit which makes such a sweet smell all the more unexpected.
As someone who doesn’t necessarily believe in spirits, occasionally the odd thing does happen which makes me think ‘what if’.
Whether you believe it or not…the “moth” was your mother. She wasn’t technically a moth but she wanted something out of the ordinary to happen to get your attention. By getting the moth to sit on your chest…she was letting you know she is always near and will always love you! Smelling things induced by spirit is very, very common! It is almost always caused by a loved one in spirit who has come by to see how you are and surround you with their love! Thanks for sharing your story! Blessings!
I wanna thank you SO much for the advice that you gave me a while ago.
Last saturday, my grandfather died after a long period of pain and sorrow. I have to admit that I was really worried about him, because he did not believe in an afterlife. I hoped he would be in an happy place.
My sister and boyfriend both experienced strange things the last few days. My sister kept finding little poems he made for her (we made poems and presents for each other every year for Sinterklaas; a tradition in Holland). When she looked outside to the street, in the shop where they sell furniture, she saw they put a brand of paint in the window for display. It was from the company where my grandfather worked!
My boyfriend woke up on tuesday morning and had a feeling that someone was with him. It was my grandfather, asking him to watch over me. My boyfriend promised he would.
While they had these beautiful experiences, I felt nothing. Untill yesterday. I was trying to study when I suddenly felt the well known pressure beneath my shoulderblades. Normally I ignore this feeling, but yesterday I imagined I was surrounded with white light and let my resistance go. I felt a huge feeling of love and smiled for a moment, but the feeling was so intense that I started to cry. I don’t know if my grandfather could hear me and even if it was him, but I told him I loved him and missed him so much. I also asked him to watch over my grandmother, mother and sister. After that I was literally shaking.
I really want to thank you, because of the advice you gave me I could let go of my resistance. Maybe it was my mind letting me having this experience, but it gives me my confirmation that my grandfather is allright and happy. Really, really thank you!
Oh my gosh that was really HIM!! He is smiling and dancing with joy that he got through to you! They don’t “hear” us, they “Feel” us. When in communication with spirit we are actually mingling with their souls so there is NO WAY he didn’t get you message. It is very overwhelming to have an experience like that. I had it with my Nana and I thought I’d never stop crying! It was the most amazing thing I’ve ever felt!! Thank you so much for writing and telling me this! Blessings to you and your family and to your dear grandfather, who is even now smiling over our communication! Peace and Light to you!
Whos trying to contact me tapping on the wall right beside my ear and other very noticeable things.who ever is trying to contact me is not giving up and I feel they are trying very hard for me to contact with them its very persistent I need to know why is this my gran. Is it another sprit needing my assistant for help for something.sounds daft but this has all began since I was 15/16 I’m now 19 and its became stronger than ever I have ever experienced before.
Tapping is a very common way for spirit to make contact with us! In fact, Spiritualism started from a spirit tapping out a message which the Fox sisters eventually realized was a spirit! The fact that you’ve been bothered by tapping for a while tells me that you are probably a very sensitive soul! Spirits recognize when someone may be aware of them and so they flock to you to try and get through! They are always trying to communicate with us! If you feel strongly that it is your gran, then it could very well be her! You are connected with her spiritually and so when you think of her very strongly, she is with you! If she suddenly pops into your mind…she is with you. If you also notice tapping, then it is probably her! But I think it isn’t always the same person. I think many spirits are trying to get through to you. Also, the more you notice them, the more active they become. If it bothers you, then tell them to stop. Mentally send them a blessing then tell them you do not wish to communicate and to please leave you alone. If you want to communicate, then try something simple like…have them tap once for yes and twice for no, or vice versus, when answering your questions! See how that goes. Always do it with light around you though! Just imagine a light glowing in and around you. Picture it in your mind…and then, once you have this image in your mind and know that this light is protecting you from negative entities…only THEN do you try to talk to them! Always keep yourself safe when dealing with spirit. Most of them time the interactions are good but sometimes bad spirits come through and it is from them you must protect yourself! Any time a communication frightens you or makes you feel bad…then STOP the communication! You are NOT dealing with a loving spirit. Loving spirits will NEVER make you feel bad or frightened. They are very supportive and uplifting and that is all! Blessings to you!
Hi, my name is Liv, im 19. As of recently Ive had some paranormal spiritual activity in my new home. I have only once experienced this long ago but NEVER to such an extent like this. I would like some advice please if you would. I dont know what I should do, I not very scared of “Her” I have seen and heard her presence, im more afraid of the noises and things i hear from her, but not the fact that I know of her. When i hear these noises and see the things she has done around the house (For example her singing upstairs, opening my drawers, slamming doors etc) I do not feel threatened or feel any negative energy….so at times I feel okay and just sit and listen to her. I have seen her twice….from the corner of my eye and once a pretty clear view. Its a daily thing, i hear her throughout the day alot more activity when im alone at the house. She has not done anything to physically harm me in any manner however i cant help but want to communicate with her. She seems very eager for my attention. I would like to get in contact with her, perhaps find out if she is alright? Why is she trying to get in contact with me and why is she exposing herself to me and only me? idk just talk to her and see if i could befriend her, she doesn’t bother me much at all.
I also live in this house with my family, my sister has seen and and hears her all the time but ignores her and pretends like none of it is happening. Ever since I moved back in its almost as if she left my sister alone and is more attracted to me. I wanna know how I could politely talk to her without scaring her away. And also why me, why are only certain people attracted by spirits? how does that work?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ANY ADVICE AT ALL THAT YOU HAVE TO GIVE, I GREATLY APPRECIATE IT MORE THAN YOU COULD IMAGINE.
Hi Alivia! Well, I think the reason you are having more interaction with her than others in your home is because you are more sensitive to spirit than they are. Everyone has the ability to interact with spirit but some people just aren’t interested in that…they prefer to ignore that part of themselves. That is certainly their right to choose to ignore this ability of theirs and to close themselves off to it. You, however, are interested and this interest attracts them! The more you notice, the more you’ll notice, the more will happen. It’s great that you have no fear of it because there is nothing to fear! Not with what is happening to you anyway. If you would like to talk with her, I think the easiest way for you to communicate with her is through automatic writing. If you are going to do this…be sure to do it without any alcohol or drugs hindering the process (by drugs I mean medications which might make you drowsy or something) you want your mind to be clear, sharp, and focused! Be in a quiet place where you won’t be disturbed. It doesn’t even have to be at your house! In the spirit world there is no such thing as space and time. All is NOW and everything is HERE! Your focus on the entity that’s been hanging out in your home will bring her to you. Sit quietly, imagine yourself filled up with light and see this light of yours glowing bright around you…this empowers your own spiritual energy and ensures your safety from negative entities. Whenever you are interacting with spirit, you must be sure to protect yourself from things you don’t want to be dealing with! Make it clear in your mind that you only want to talk to her…or whoever you are going to allow. Ask your personal guarding angels to help control who comes through and speaks to you. They will help if you ASK! Make it clear you are allowing only positive, loving energy to come through then wait. Keep a pencil and paper close, pencil ready to write…your grip loose, not tight. Ask her a question then start writing whatever comes into your mind. Don’t worry that it’s your imagination saying it…that’s how they interact with us…through our imagination! What do you think is inspiring you to say those words? Just go with it…don’t scrutinize it, analyze it, criticize it…just WRITE it. Once you are done, thank them for speaking to you and then tell the spirits that your are done and will allow no more interaction…this closes the spiritual door. Then read what you have…you’ll probably be amazed! blessings to you!
Hello. Good day maam. so All started these strange feelings when i was in my junior year. First thing that happened in the house is where i took a selfie and i captured some un identified face that is bit blurry. but ill just ignore it bcause maybe there just somethibg wrong with my cam. the other one when i attended the party of my bestfriend and she took me a picture . and another one captured. it was a face of an old man . at the window. But no ones in there. these strange feelings goes day by day. I often got nightmares in my sleep. Every week i felt it. Then finally. January, i am really tired. it was 12:30am and i cant sleep bcause i think theres someones watching me. but 12:58 i fell asleep. As soon as i feel asleep. few seconds , i can hear my heart racing fast. my body vibrates. i can hear loud noises like a machine. i am so afraid. i scream. i struggling. i want to wake up. and then i felt my soul lifting up my body. i was so afraid . and then i woke up. im catching my breath. after this night. The next week. i think my hearing whispers in my house but i ignores it. I get goosebumps. it was so weird. Goosebumps in my head, arm, legs , stomach.. And Everyweek i felt it.Month of march came. one night. i stayed up late at night. i heard a child crying. begging for help. it is very loud but i think im the only one can heard it. Im so confusef to what is the meaning of all of these? For now. i live with my grandmother. only two of us lives in this house. Is this things real or i just imagining it on my own? But its real. i saw it with my eyes. theres someone standing in my back with my pheriperal vision. but when i turn back.no one was there.. PS hoping for your response.
Hi! So sorry you are having these problems! So, it sounds to me like you are a very “sensitive” soul. Meaning…you were born into this life wanting to keep your awareness of the “spirit” realm. The problem with this is that when we are operating in the physical world…our Ego was put in place to keep us separate from the spirit world. Otherwise, we just would not want to stay here. We’d all be like…”I’m so outta here, I’m going HOME!” (smile) So, to help us LIVE in the physical world, we were given an Ego to act as a sort of gatekeeper and controller of sorts. When you become consciously aware of spirit…because of your sensitivity…your Ego will trigger fear to keep you from exploring it a little more! Honestly, I think one huge problem we have to deal with in life is how to MANAGE our Egos! The fact is, there are spirits everywhere. They are everywhere because we share the same space as they do! There are different levels of awareness and the physical level is the most “dense” of levels. So anyway, when we are in our sleep state…or are just entering it or coming out of it…our Ego is the most relaxed and so our conscious awareness of the spirit world is more acute. This is why you are experiencing stronger situations while in this state! It can be quite a scary experience because we don’t understand what is going on…and then our Ego kicks in and sounds the “fear” alarm. Fear comes from our Ego. Our SOUL knows NO FEAR. So, here’s something to help you out. When you are in a situation that causes you to feel fear…like when you are aware of a spirit being near…quickly think of yourself as glowing like a lightbulb from the inside out! Keep this glowing light around your body by a few inches. The further away you imagine it, then it becomes weaker. Your personal power is stronger IN you and around your body (which is really your AURA) Energy extending beyond your aura is limited in that you can’t use YOUR energy to overpower another’s energy. BUT, you can use YOUR energy to protect yourself!! You can also send positive energy toward the thing you fear and if it’s a negative energy, it will retreat from your awareness (withdraw from your level of consciousness and thus become totally ineffective in interacting with you!) If it’s a loving, positive energy, you won’t “scare” it away but out of love and concern for you, they will withdraw from your awareness because that is your wish. They respect your wishes and will comply. This will work every time! Also, before you go to sleep at night…power up your personal energy and then tell yourself you’ll stay protected like this the entire time you are asleep! Also, ask the angels to keep you safe as well. They are also around us all the time and very happy to help us out when ASKED! Give it a try and let me know how it goes! Blessings to you!
Hello,
I just have a small question. Are my friends still with me? I really love spirituality and I kept practicing it too. Some years ago, I felt a presence of a spirit in my room. I realised it when I felt like it kept its hand on my shoulder and once, I saw it (not sure if I hallucinated). I got familiar with it and gave it a small toy to live in. After some years, I felt another presence around me. I think it was evil because it did scary things around my house. Somehow I managed to calm it down and also gave it another body to live in. Sadly, I had to move from that area into a capital. I really wanted them to stay with me, but I’m not sure if they came along (or maybe they just can’t?). Also, the previous area was a little urban and was quiet but the capital (actually,somewhere near the capital) is quite busy. I don’t think they are related to me in any way.
Are they still with me or did they stay over? Or was it my imagination right from the beginning? Thank you.
Hi Anastasia! First off, I don’t believe it was your imagination (though honestly it is through our imagination that we are able to interact with spirit!). Spirits are indeed all around us…all the time. For whatever reason, you had a couple that became noticeable to you. They come and go depending on their own needs and growth (I believe that even in spirit, we are undergoing growth and change). They might be attached to the area you were in or they might have moved on in their spiritual journey. I won’t be surprised if you attract new spirit interaction with new friends, though! Blessings!
Thank you for replying.
I searched through your web and got an idea about asking them for a sign. Luckily, I got numerous signs from them. I’m really happy and grateful for your help. I got my courage back along with my friends.
Thank you!!!
The other day I visited my friends house and stayed the night. I had trouble going to bed and while I was up I kept on hearing the sound of something falling and hitting the ground and I saw things out of the corner of my eye a few times and when I turned my attention to it it would disappear almost automatically. I would get mildly scared every time this happened, but I tried to ignore it and pretended it was fake. I went home the next day and I forgot about the “paranormal happenings” and wasn’t sure if it was a spirit or if I was imagining it until that night when I went to bed. As soon as I turned off the light I resumed hearing the falling sounds, but I ignored and wasn’t even scared of it at this point. I was about to fall asleep when suddenly my whole body briefly shook. It happened out of nowhere and I had no control over it. After that I was fully awake and the middle of my calf hurt mildly. I was shocked at first, but I eventually calmed down and realized that There was actually a spirit around me and possibly had followed me from my friends house. I prayed to god and my guardian angel for protection that night and was able to go to bed. I don’t know if the spirit was trying to hurt me because my leg barely hurt when this happened and I think it is trying to make contact with me and got frustrated because I was falling asleep and decided to not let me fall asleep. I want to know what you think because every time I enter the room I was sleeping in I feel like I’m not alone and once when I was in there (I don’t know how to explain this) my mind went unfocused and I heard the voice of a young boy and I made out the words “look bubba” or something similar to that. I am writing to you because I want to know what you think about my story and what you think I should do. I would really appreciate it if you could respond to me.
Hi Kody! I can imagine it must be very frustrating and a little scary dealing with this issue. Especially when it just suddenly happened. I’m not sure why, out of the blue, we suddenly experience a paranormal interaction but it must have something to do with timing and mind set. It is very possible that this “ghost” followed you home from your friend’s house. Has your friend mentioned that they had noticed anything? Maybe the spirit was tired of trying to get your friend’s attention and when he saw that he had yours, he went home with you. The thumping noise is a way for him to get our attention. They can create sounds like that quite easily. In truth, it’s hard for spirit to interact with the physical world because they are spirit and operating on a much higher frequency (energy speed) than we are. But, some of them learn or figure out how to make themselves known…such at tapping, banging, thumping noises. Also, they can occasionally manage to shake or touch a person. Bed shaking is another thing but I think that’s because they are raising the energy vibration in the area where the bed exists and that causes the bed to shake. This spirit is not evil or trying to hurt you. He does want your attention because those in spirit who are desperate to communicate with those of us in the physical world are working hard to get anyone’s attention…anyone. Our peripheral vision is actually more sensitive to energy vibrating to higher rates of speed. This was a mechanism put in place to help us survive! When man first began, they had only their instincts to keep them alive and knowing if something was sneaking up just out of our vision was a huge survival technique for us. So, when you turn your direct gaze upon the “spirit”, you cannot see it. The frontal part of our iris (the part that picks up on light imprints and converts them into “pictures) just cannot detect things moving at a faster rate of speed (vibration) such as that in which spirits exist. Animals have a much keener sense of vision and they can pick up on things that we cannot because for them, viewing all around them is vital to their survival. They need to see things coming directly at them at high speeds as well as those that are trying to approach from the side. Now, though we don’t have eyes in the back of our head, we can still often feel when someone is behind us! That is our energy field (our aura, our spirit essence) picking up on the energy of another. So, anyway, you have a spirit reaching out to you. He’s reaching out to you because you have noticed him and now you’ve acknowledged him. You can try to find someone (a medium or psychic) who might be able to contact him and see what he needs or you can try yourself. You can do it either through meditation or through automatic writing. I do both but you need to do what you can “accept”. If you think you can’t do automatic writing…then you will hinder the process. If you think it’s just your imagination if you do it through meditation…well then fine! By tricking the ego to believe it’s “just the imagination”, your mind will allow your imagination to have at it! Know this…the imagination is our doorway into spirit. Before any sort of spirit interaction, be sure to pray or say words of protection. Make it clear to yourself and the spirit world that you are inviting ONLY positive, loving interaction. If anything becomes frightening, gives you a bad feeling, feels wrong… you stop it at once. Imagine a light shining from within going out around your body creating an “egg” of light around you. This is your own spiritual energy strengthening to a protective field…keeping out negative energy vibrations. You can do this anytime you feel threatened, scared!! Our personal light…our energy field… is very strong and very protective! It is powered by the higher forces (God, higher power…whatever you want to call it or believe in). Also, you can ask your guardian angels to keep you safe. We all have legions of angels around waiting for us to ask for help. They cannot interfere without our permission. So, if you are meditation, get yourself in a relaxed state, imagine the light in and around you and then invite him to come. Go with whatever comes to mind. Don’t try to direct it or analyze it or force it. If writing is a better avenue then get some paper and a pen and write whatever you are moved to write. Your ego will say…this is just your imagination saying this. Fine! Your imagination is your doorway into spirit! Good luck! Let me know how it goes. Blessings to you.
I feel energy and sensations and I was wondering how to increase my abilities better to be able to use my intuition/ talking with spirits Better. I know they are there and I get signs what does this mean? And what can I do to develop this stronger?
Thanks — Briana
Briana, I did a roundup of my blog posts that might interest you and answer some of those questions! You can also do what I did…I went to the book stores (the Occult section) and bought what I could afford and what grabbed my attention. I also researched a lot on line (always go with your gut feelings when picking out books, taking advice, surfing web sites…if it “feels” right, then it’s probably right for you but if it doesn’t feel right…skip it!) https://deborahjhughes.com/2013/10/29/ghosts-spirit-contact-and-paranormal-activity-ghostly-dramas-post-roundup/ You can meet people of similar interest at Spiritualist Churches (which are not weird and bizarre so don’t be afraid to check them out!!). The more you explore, the more things will just come to you. The universe has a way with helping us out when we are on a focused quest! Blessings!
Deborah, I’m only 13 and I’ve gotten this weird voice-mail, I’ve played it through a couple of times and I’ve heard “Want you” , “Bring me” and “Behind” and I may sound crazy but I’ve called an ITC on skype and I played it to it and it reacted loudly. I’ve downloaded and Ghost Radar and they said there was one literally right next to me and I felt a cold presence on one side of my body. Then in the bathroom doing my business, I put my hand out then there was a cold presence on my hand as if someone was holding it. Also I have a dog and she’d be looking at something then follow it or she’s bark at it.
What’s going on.
Not sure Ryean but I do caution you about using stuff on line like Ghost Radar! I hold no confidence in things like that! Our imagination can be our worst enemy sometimes! Not sure what the voicemail thing is all about…you sure no one is playing a prank on you? In any case…I think you are fine! Check out my post on some ideas to get rid of ghosts! Take care. Blessings. https://deborahjhughes.com/2013/07/26/encountering-ghosts-and-vanquishing-them/
Hi Deborah,
Firstly what a crazy coincidence that i’m drawn to your blog and also a hughes (fate?) ,well firstly i right to you out of fear and desperation but also peace and rest,this is long but i feel that you may have the answers i am longing for.Firstly as a child (roughly 8 upwards to bout 11) i always layed under the covers in constant fear that a man was watching over me by the doorway or the end of my bed or outside my large sliding bedroom window ( this however i believe was a peeping tom or maybe my imagination as my mother described it to me) anyways it took about a year to tell my mum that i was scared that this man (spirit i believe) was going to hurt me because my body would shake when i felt his presence at the end of my bed) my mother told me it was probally just my imagination as it was the time i just moved in to my own room and that it would go away,but it did not and as i got older it got worse,at 12 we moved away to a whole new state and the fear and spirit left me completely and i was able to sleep again,however i moved back to live with my father after 6 months to whom which he lives next door to my mothers house on the same property from here i started to fear going outside to the outside toilet 4 metres away (lived in a community so no flushing toilet) i would ask my little brother to wait at the front steps for me for it was that bad and would wait all night to the next morning if i needed to go once my big brother and little brother and father would go to bed as the fear was debilitating,my father did not understand and put it down to just “being scared of the dark” and often joked of the boogeyman waiting for me outside as he did not ever know the extent of my fear or presence of the man at my mothers,i did not have the man watch over my bed for the next 3 years but the fear of the toilet trip still stayed but then at 16 it started again like i would wake from my sleep petrified and literally get out of bed amd walk to the window at of the opposite side of my bedroom to which i shared with my little brother,when i would look out the window i eould see a clear figure of a man in a white hooded jumper and dark pants but i could never remember a face or pick a description out which made me sure it was not a human peeping tom,i would try wake my brother quietly however he was a deep sleeper this went on for the first 10 months of that year everynight the same thing,i did not tell my dad as i knew he would joke of it but then one night to my surprise my brother woke to me standing at the window staring and said chica chica are you ok what are you doing and me frozen with fear did not turn so naturally worried he came to window and saw the figure of the man and yelled out to dad and as he did the figure dissapeared and dad of course said it was prob just a dream and went outside with the flash light to see or find anybody,this kept going the waking up however my brother did not sense my fear not wake up like the previous time and then one week later my dad and brothers went to a sleep over fifa world cup soccer match at the community hall with friends and i chose to stay home alone (stupidly) on that night same scenario the figure standing by the window just standing this time usually over come by fear i felt a anger and rage in and proceeded to open to the window and yell out what do you want from me ? why are you are ? go away leave me alone please just fuckoff i don’t want you here from this the figured stared this time with a face to whom i felt i recognized then dissapeared the next morning when my father arrived home i ran to him bursting in tears telling him of the fear and taunting going on and that he was watching me from this my father believed me and never left my sight at dark time and i never saw this figure for the rest of the year i then at 17 left home and moved to another state QLD where my mother was a year passed by nothing scary happening just usual insomnia (couldn’t sense any presence or fear) and just put it down to “an over active mind” then however at 18 i moved into a shared house and this only way i can describe it is evil spirit came over me in my sleep i know i was fast asleep and calm then out of nowhere i felt my body tighten up and felt a presence at the end of the bed feeling scared i tried to roll over but felt imobilised and then felt a breath in my ear (as if someone blew wind in to my ear-windows were completely) closed) i then felt like as if there was physically a human on my body as my chest my being pressed down on so heavy like i was being held down still frozen and able to scream or open my eyes i honestly felt and thought as if someone broke in and i was about to be raped as a result but then out of fear and survival mode adrenelin must have kicked in because i had full moment and jerk my body to side and managed to scream help(with no sound) and opened my eyes to see no human figure but as i fought it of i felt like it went thru my body (can’t explain it properly) but i can tell you i was awake and alert when it happened and i was in hysterics with tears in my eyes body shaking neck fully sweating.i then stayed up all night and out fear of looking like the crazy girl that moved in to my housemates i never spoke a word of it and it did not return but then however i moved again some time later roughly a year and it happened again exact same events this time i called my then friend kurt who is of maori (NZ) decendence at 3:00am in the morning bursting in to tears to which bless his soul did not laugh and think i was crazy but instead told me that in maori folk lore it is believed that evil spirits prey on those who are of good nature and or of sensitive state (weak and vunerable) as they thrives off power and your fear as it makes a easy target,with this his stayed on the phone til the sun rose at 6am just comforting me as i was in a very confused almost “crazy lost and scared/confused” state this then never returned until the age of 19 when i moved back to coffs harbour as i secretly and scaredly thought i may have been ready for a mental breakdown i moved in with my sister and with in the second night of being in my room it happened again all the same events i kept quite and spoke nothing of it then one day i felt like i needed to speak about it (i was starting to question my sanity) so i waited for my other sister to come stay over and see what she could make of it (we are very close and 100% open about everything,god bless her) so she came over and i just blurted it out something kuni please help me someone is trying to kill me i mean really hurt me a spirit a bad one a man i am really scared please tell me i’m not crazy sis please i need you i feel afraid all time now my sister concerned told mw that maybe it was just a “bad energy” from the last tenant maybe he was violent towards his girlfriend and that energy did not leave with him but lingered finding comfort in this i hugged my sister and said please don’t think i’m crazy kuni i am being honest i am so afraid with this i went to bed normally and my sister slept in the living room i said good night and she said don’t be afraid chic i am here if anything happens to yell to me and i will help you with this i went to bed slept soundly and peacefully then got up for a wee and as i opened the door to walk to the bathroom there was my sister in the living room on the couch staring at me intensly with a pale white face and scared teary eyes me concerned said kun what’s up (sub conciously i knew exactly what was going on) and she just sat there in tears as i came closer and blurted out chic it happened that spirit it tried to hurt me i then sat and hugged her as she was now in tears telling me that it pressed down on her chest but this if it the same presence spoke to her and said that “she will go crazy and loose her mind in 6 months” with this we woke up oour eldest sister bianca to whom did not want to hear a piece of it (i sensed really bad fear in her tone) as she said stop it don’t be stupid you were imagining it now shutup i don’t want to speak of this nonsense again,my question is : for my personal experience what is a evil spirit of a sexual violent nature ? was it the same spirit as when i was a child just more sick and violent and time progressed ? what about my sister is it the same spirit on the man ? and why my sister ? and why is my oldest sister so hesitant and hostile about this matter ? is she haunted by these evil spirits aswell bit to afraid to speak ? please give me answers as i desperately seek them and a way out please email me or reply on here thankyou greatly i have more to tell you but first would like some answers to figure what to make of this before i add more events to it.Thankyou thankyou please get back to me Chica
Hi Deborah, I’m hoping you can help me with some insight. My mother passed away suddenly at home 6 days ago. I love and miss my mom very much. I loved my mom so much that I bought the house directly across the street from her last year. I’m a 25 year old female and still needed her. Anyway, the night after she passed I woke up at 4:00 am, but attributed it to stress/grieving. Since then, I have woke up at 4am two more times. Last night was different though. When I woke up, I truly felt like she was with me. There was an overwhelming sense of a presence. However, I felt so anxious and almost scared. My heart was racing. I also heard 3 faint, but definitely audible, knocks. I have to say that have been skeptical about the spirit world at times in my life. I just find myself so desperate when I think about my mom contacting me. My question is, why did i have so much anxiety last night if that was her? I would never feel afraid of my mom. I even remember feeling guilty and thinking, “Just try again mom. I promise I won’t be afraid next time.” Will I be able to notice signs from my mom throughout my lifetime? Thank you for your time.
Hi Tiffany. I am so sorry for your loss. Though your mom is definitely doing quite well in spirit, that doesn’t help us “here” in the physical world and lesson how much we miss them. The three knocks were “I love you”. I have always used that three-tap rule for expressing love. When my husband and I are holding hands, we squeeze each other three times to convey our love! The early morning hours, the veil between our world and spirit is at it’s thinnest and you wake up because she is near and you feel her! Even so…it’s an unknown thing…what if it’s not her (but it is!) and the worry something is wrong if it IS her (which it is and nothing is wrong other than her concern for you!). Also…you want it to be her and are afraid it isn’t! That causes the anxiety. Be at peace in knowing she is well and trying to let you know that she is well and near you still. Whenever you think of her…truly need her…she’ll be there. Ask for a sign…she’ll give you one!! I talk to my grandparents all the time…I feel them near and I don’t doubt it. Once in a while I ask them for a sign but I don’t need that from them every time. I send you many blessings and vibrations of love!! Whenever you want to have a special moment with your mom…light a candle (fire represents the light of spirit burning bright)…it raises the energy and creates focus for what you are doing. Then talk to her and feel her near…whatever loving thoughts come through your mind…that is her! Blessings.
When my Mother died, a few days later ( within the same week of her passing) I was up one night chatting in the lounge with my younger Sister who was living with Mum at that time, it was ‘Mums house’ and we were sat talking. We were both very upset and were trying to comprehend how we’d lost our Mum… which was the only topic of conversation at that time. Suddenly, a huge white moth the size of a very large butterfly came fluttering to the window, relentlessly trying to find it’s way in, I opened the window and let it into the brightly lit room, it fluttered about the room for a few moments and then landed on my chest and stayed there for half an hour so… I couldn’t get over the size of it.
This isn’t my reason for posting today, it’s mid Semptember and I’ve just been overwhelmed by the scent of flowers or perfume or something, very odd as Autumn is near (although my window was open) and it’s the early hours of the morning. I’m a smoker of cigarettes and I smoke in my apartment a fair bit which makes such a sweet smell all the more unexpected.
As someone who doesn’t necessarily believe in spirits, occasionally the odd thing does happen which makes me think ‘what if’.

Whether you believe it or not…the “moth” was your mother. She wasn’t technically a moth but she wanted something out of the ordinary to happen to get your attention. By getting the moth to sit on your chest…she was letting you know she is always near and will always love you! Smelling things induced by spirit is very, very common! It is almost always caused by a loved one in spirit who has come by to see how you are and surround you with their love! Thanks for sharing your story! Blessings!

Hi Deborah!
I wanna thank you SO much for the advice that you gave me a while ago.
Last saturday, my grandfather died after a long period of pain and sorrow. I have to admit that I was really worried about him, because he did not believe in an afterlife. I hoped he would be in an happy place.
My sister and boyfriend both experienced strange things the last few days. My sister kept finding little poems he made for her (we made poems and presents for each other every year for Sinterklaas; a tradition in Holland). When she looked outside to the street, in the shop where they sell furniture, she saw they put a brand of paint in the window for display. It was from the company where my grandfather worked!
My boyfriend woke up on tuesday morning and had a feeling that someone was with him. It was my grandfather, asking him to watch over me. My boyfriend promised he would.
While they had these beautiful experiences, I felt nothing. Untill yesterday. I was trying to study when I suddenly felt the well known pressure beneath my shoulderblades. Normally I ignore this feeling, but yesterday I imagined I was surrounded with white light and let my resistance go. I felt a huge feeling of love and smiled for a moment, but the feeling was so intense that I started to cry. I don’t know if my grandfather could hear me and even if it was him, but I told him I loved him and missed him so much. I also asked him to watch over my grandmother, mother and sister. After that I was literally shaking.
I really want to thank you, because of the advice you gave me I could let go of my resistance. Maybe it was my mind letting me having this experience, but it gives me my confirmation that my grandfather is allright and happy. Really, really thank you!

Oh my gosh that was really HIM!! He is smiling and dancing with joy that he got through to you! They don’t “hear” us, they “Feel” us. When in communication with spirit we are actually mingling with their souls so there is NO WAY he didn’t get you message. It is very overwhelming to have an experience like that. I had it with my Nana and I thought I’d never stop crying! It was the most amazing thing I’ve ever felt!! Thank you so much for writing and telling me this! Blessings to you and your family and to your dear grandfather, who is even now smiling over our communication! Peace and Light to you!

Tapping is a very common way for spirit to make contact with us! In fact, Spiritualism started from a spirit tapping out a message which the Fox sisters eventually realized was a spirit! The fact that you’ve been bothered by tapping for a while tells me that you are probably a very sensitive soul! Spirits recognize when someone may be aware of them and so they flock to you to try and get through! They are always trying to communicate with us! If you feel strongly that it is your gran, then it could very well be her! You are connected with her spiritually and so when you think of her very strongly, she is with you! If she suddenly pops into your mind…she is with you. If you also notice tapping, then it is probably her! But I think it isn’t always the same person. I think many spirits are trying to get through to you. Also, the more you notice them, the more active they become. If it bothers you, then tell them to stop. Mentally send them a blessing then tell them you do not wish to communicate and to please leave you alone. If you want to communicate, then try something simple like…have them tap once for yes and twice for no, or vice versus, when answering your questions! See how that goes. Always do it with light around you though! Just imagine a light glowing in and around you. Picture it in your mind…and then, once you have this image in your mind and know that this light is protecting you from negative entities…only THEN do you try to talk to them! Always keep yourself safe when dealing with spirit. Most of them time the interactions are good but sometimes bad spirits come through and it is from them you must protect yourself! Any time a communication frightens you or makes you feel bad…then STOP the communication! You are NOT dealing with a loving spirit. Loving spirits will NEVER make you feel bad or frightened. They are very supportive and uplifting and that is all! Blessings to you!

Hi, my name is Liv, im 19. As of recently Ive had some paranormal spiritual activity in my new home. I have only once experienced this long ago but NEVER to such an extent like this. I would like some advice please if you would. I dont know what I should do, I not very scared of “Her” I have seen and heard her presence, im more afraid of the noises and things i hear from her, but not the fact that I know of her. When i hear these noises and see the things she has done around the house (For example her singing upstairs, opening my drawers, slamming doors etc) I do not feel threatened or feel any negative energy….so at times I feel okay and just sit and listen to her. I have seen her twice….from the corner of my eye and once a pretty clear view. Its a daily thing, i hear her throughout the day alot more activity when im alone at the house. She has not done anything to physically harm me in any manner however i cant help but want to communicate with her. She seems very eager for my attention. I would like to get in contact with her, perhaps find out if she is alright? Why is she trying to get in contact with me and why is she exposing herself to me and only me? idk just talk to her and see if i could befriend her, she doesn’t bother me much at all.
I also live in this house with my family, my sister has seen and and hears her all the time but ignores her and pretends like none of it is happening. Ever since I moved back in its almost as if she left my sister alone and is more attracted to me. I wanna know how I could politely talk to her without scaring her away. And also why me, why are only certain people attracted by spirits? how does that work?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ANY ADVICE AT ALL THAT YOU HAVE TO GIVE, I GREATLY APPRECIATE IT MORE THAN YOU COULD IMAGINE.
-LIV

Hi Alivia! Well, I think the reason you are having more interaction with her than others in your home is because you are more sensitive to spirit than they are. Everyone has the ability to interact with spirit but some people just aren’t interested in that…they prefer to ignore that part of themselves. That is certainly their right to choose to ignore this ability of theirs and to close themselves off to it. You, however, are interested and this interest attracts them! The more you notice, the more you’ll notice, the more will happen. It’s great that you have no fear of it because there is nothing to fear! Not with what is happening to you anyway. If you would like to talk with her, I think the easiest way for you to communicate with her is through automatic writing. If you are going to do this…be sure to do it without any alcohol or drugs hindering the process (by drugs I mean medications which might make you drowsy or something) you want your mind to be clear, sharp, and focused! Be in a quiet place where you won’t be disturbed. It doesn’t even have to be at your house! In the spirit world there is no such thing as space and time. All is NOW and everything is HERE! Your focus on the entity that’s been hanging out in your home will bring her to you. Sit quietly, imagine yourself filled up with light and see this light of yours glowing bright around you…this empowers your own spiritual energy and ensures your safety from negative entities. Whenever you are interacting with spirit, you must be sure to protect yourself from things you don’t want to be dealing with! Make it clear in your mind that you only want to talk to her…or whoever you are going to allow. Ask your personal guarding angels to help control who comes through and speaks to you. They will help if you ASK! Make it clear you are allowing only positive, loving energy to come through then wait. Keep a pencil and paper close, pencil ready to write…your grip loose, not tight. Ask her a question then start writing whatever comes into your mind. Don’t worry that it’s your imagination saying it…that’s how they interact with us…through our imagination! What do you think is inspiring you to say those words? Just go with it…don’t scrutinize it, analyze it, criticize it…just WRITE it. Once you are done, thank them for speaking to you and then tell the spirits that your are done and will allow no more interaction…this closes the spiritual door. Then read what you have…you’ll probably be amazed! blessings to you!

But no ones in there. these strange feelings goes day by day. I often got nightmares in my sleep. Every week i felt it. Then finally. January, i am really tired. it was 12:30am and i cant sleep bcause i think theres someones watching me. but 12:58 i fell asleep. As soon as i feel asleep. few seconds , i can hear my heart racing fast. my body vibrates. i can hear loud noises like a machine. i am so afraid. i scream. i struggling. i want to wake up. and then i felt my soul lifting up my body. i was so afraid . and then i woke up. im catching my breath. after this night.

But its real. i saw it with my eyes. theres someone standing in my back with my pheriperal vision. but when i turn back.no one was there.. PS hoping for your response.

Hi! So sorry you are having these problems! So, it sounds to me like you are a very “sensitive” soul. Meaning…you were born into this life wanting to keep your awareness of the “spirit” realm. The problem with this is that when we are operating in the physical world…our Ego was put in place to keep us separate from the spirit world. Otherwise, we just would not want to stay here. We’d all be like…”I’m so outta here, I’m going HOME!” (smile) So, to help us LIVE in the physical world, we were given an Ego to act as a sort of gatekeeper and controller of sorts. When you become consciously aware of spirit…because of your sensitivity…your Ego will trigger fear to keep you from exploring it a little more! Honestly, I think one huge problem we have to deal with in life is how to MANAGE our Egos! The fact is, there are spirits everywhere. They are everywhere because we share the same space as they do! There are different levels of awareness and the physical level is the most “dense” of levels. So anyway, when we are in our sleep state…or are just entering it or coming out of it…our Ego is the most relaxed and so our conscious awareness of the spirit world is more acute. This is why you are experiencing stronger situations while in this state! It can be quite a scary experience because we don’t understand what is going on…and then our Ego kicks in and sounds the “fear” alarm. Fear comes from our Ego. Our SOUL knows NO FEAR. So, here’s something to help you out. When you are in a situation that causes you to feel fear…like when you are aware of a spirit being near…quickly think of yourself as glowing like a lightbulb from the inside out! Keep this glowing light around your body by a few inches. The further away you imagine it, then it becomes weaker. Your personal power is stronger IN you and around your body (which is really your AURA) Energy extending beyond your aura is limited in that you can’t use YOUR energy to overpower another’s energy. BUT, you can use YOUR energy to protect yourself!! You can also send positive energy toward the thing you fear and if it’s a negative energy, it will retreat from your awareness (withdraw from your level of consciousness and thus become totally ineffective in interacting with you!) If it’s a loving, positive energy, you won’t “scare” it away but out of love and concern for you, they will withdraw from your awareness because that is your wish. They respect your wishes and will comply. This will work every time! Also, before you go to sleep at night…power up your personal energy and then tell yourself you’ll stay protected like this the entire time you are asleep! Also, ask the angels to keep you safe as well. They are also around us all the time and very happy to help us out when ASKED! Give it a try and let me know how it goes! Blessings to you!

Hello,
I just have a small question. Are my friends still with me? I really love spirituality and I kept practicing it too. Some years ago, I felt a presence of a spirit in my room. I realised it when I felt like it kept its hand on my shoulder and once, I saw it (not sure if I hallucinated). I got familiar with it and gave it a small toy to live in. After some years, I felt another presence around me. I think it was evil because it did scary things around my house. Somehow I managed to calm it down and also gave it another body to live in. Sadly, I had to move from that area into a capital. I really wanted them to stay with me, but I’m not sure if they came along (or maybe they just can’t?). Also, the previous area was a little urban and was quiet but the capital (actually,somewhere near the capital) is quite busy. I don’t think they are related to me in any way.
Are they still with me or did they stay over? Or was it my imagination right from the beginning? Thank you.

Hi Anastasia! First off, I don’t believe it was your imagination (though honestly it is through our imagination that we are able to interact with spirit!). Spirits are indeed all around us…all the time. For whatever reason, you had a couple that became noticeable to you. They come and go depending on their own needs and growth (I believe that even in spirit, we are undergoing growth and change). They might be attached to the area you were in or they might have moved on in their spiritual journey. I won’t be surprised if you attract new spirit interaction with new friends, though! Blessings!

The other day I visited my friends house and stayed the night. I had trouble going to bed and while I was up I kept on hearing the sound of something falling and hitting the ground and I saw things out of the corner of my eye a few times and when I turned my attention to it it would disappear almost automatically. I would get mildly scared every time this happened, but I tried to ignore it and pretended it was fake. I went home the next day and I forgot about the “paranormal happenings” and wasn’t sure if it was a spirit or if I was imagining it until that night when I went to bed. As soon as I turned off the light I resumed hearing the falling sounds, but I ignored and wasn’t even scared of it at this point. I was about to fall asleep when suddenly my whole body briefly shook. It happened out of nowhere and I had no control over it. After that I was fully awake and the middle of my calf hurt mildly. I was shocked at first, but I eventually calmed down and realized that There was actually a spirit around me and possibly had followed me from my friends house. I prayed to god and my guardian angel for protection that night and was able to go to bed. I don’t know if the spirit was trying to hurt me because my leg barely hurt when this happened and I think it is trying to make contact with me and got frustrated because I was falling asleep and decided to not let me fall asleep. I want to know what you think because every time I enter the room I was sleeping in I feel like I’m not alone and once when I was in there (I don’t know how to explain this) my mind went unfocused and I heard the voice of a young boy and I made out the words “look bubba” or something similar to that. I am writing to you because I want to know what you think about my story and what you think I should do. I would really appreciate it if you could respond to me.

Hi Kody! I can imagine it must be very frustrating and a little scary dealing with this issue. Especially when it just suddenly happened. I’m not sure why, out of the blue, we suddenly experience a paranormal interaction but it must have something to do with timing and mind set. It is very possible that this “ghost” followed you home from your friend’s house. Has your friend mentioned that they had noticed anything? Maybe the spirit was tired of trying to get your friend’s attention and when he saw that he had yours, he went home with you. The thumping noise is a way for him to get our attention. They can create sounds like that quite easily. In truth, it’s hard for spirit to interact with the physical world because they are spirit and operating on a much higher frequency (energy speed) than we are. But, some of them learn or figure out how to make themselves known…such at tapping, banging, thumping noises. Also, they can occasionally manage to shake or touch a person. Bed shaking is another thing but I think that’s because they are raising the energy vibration in the area where the bed exists and that causes the bed to shake. This spirit is not evil or trying to hurt you. He does want your attention because those in spirit who are desperate to communicate with those of us in the physical world are working hard to get anyone’s attention…anyone. Our peripheral vision is actually more sensitive to energy vibrating to higher rates of speed. This was a mechanism put in place to help us survive! When man first began, they had only their instincts to keep them alive and knowing if something was sneaking up just out of our vision was a huge survival technique for us. So, when you turn your direct gaze upon the “spirit”, you cannot see it. The frontal part of our iris (the part that picks up on light imprints and converts them into “pictures) just cannot detect things moving at a faster rate of speed (vibration) such as that in which spirits exist. Animals have a much keener sense of vision and they can pick up on things that we cannot because for them, viewing all around them is vital to their survival. They need to see things coming directly at them at high speeds as well as those that are trying to approach from the side. Now, though we don’t have eyes in the back of our head, we can still often feel when someone is behind us! That is our energy field (our aura, our spirit essence) picking up on the energy of another. So, anyway, you have a spirit reaching out to you. He’s reaching out to you because you have noticed him and now you’ve acknowledged him. You can try to find someone (a medium or psychic) who might be able to contact him and see what he needs or you can try yourself. You can do it either through meditation or through automatic writing. I do both but you need to do what you can “accept”. If you think you can’t do automatic writing…then you will hinder the process. If you think it’s just your imagination if you do it through meditation…well then fine! By tricking the ego to believe it’s “just the imagination”, your mind will allow your imagination to have at it! Know this…the imagination is our doorway into spirit. Before any sort of spirit interaction, be sure to pray or say words of protection. Make it clear to yourself and the spirit world that you are inviting ONLY positive, loving interaction. If anything becomes frightening, gives you a bad feeling, feels wrong… you stop it at once. Imagine a light shining from within going out around your body creating an “egg” of light around you. This is your own spiritual energy strengthening to a protective field…keeping out negative energy vibrations. You can do this anytime you feel threatened, scared!! Our personal light…our energy field… is very strong and very protective! It is powered by the higher forces (God, higher power…whatever you want to call it or believe in). Also, you can ask your guardian angels to keep you safe. We all have legions of angels around waiting for us to ask for help. They cannot interfere without our permission. So, if you are meditation, get yourself in a relaxed state, imagine the light in and around you and then invite him to come. Go with whatever comes to mind. Don’t try to direct it or analyze it or force it. If writing is a better avenue then get some paper and a pen and write whatever you are moved to write. Your ego will say…this is just your imagination saying this. Fine! Your imagination is your doorway into spirit! Good luck! Let me know how it goes. Blessings to you.

Hi Deborah,
please email me or reply on here thankyou greatly i have more to tell you but first would like some answers to figure what to make of this before i add more events to it.Thankyou thankyou please get back to me Chica
Firstly what a crazy coincidence that i’m drawn to your blog and also a hughes (fate?) ,well firstly i right to you out of fear and desperation but also peace and rest,this is long but i feel that you may have the answers i am longing for.Firstly as a child (roughly 8 upwards to bout 11) i always layed under the covers in constant fear that a man was watching over me by the doorway or the end of my bed or outside my large sliding bedroom window ( this however i believe was a peeping tom or maybe my imagination as my mother described it to me) anyways it took about a year to tell my mum that i was scared that this man (spirit i believe) was going to hurt me because my body would shake when i felt his presence at the end of my bed) my mother told me it was probally just my imagination as it was the time i just moved in to my own room and that it would go away,but it did not and as i got older it got worse,at 12 we moved away to a whole new state and the fear and spirit left me completely and i was able to sleep again,however i moved back to live with my father after 6 months to whom which he lives next door to my mothers house on the same property from here i started to fear going outside to the outside toilet 4 metres away (lived in a community so no flushing toilet) i would ask my little brother to wait at the front steps for me for it was that bad and would wait all night to the next morning if i needed to go once my big brother and little brother and father would go to bed as the fear was debilitating,my father did not understand and put it down to just “being scared of the dark” and often joked of the boogeyman waiting for me outside as he did not ever know the extent of my fear or presence of the man at my mothers,i did not have the man watch over my bed for the next 3 years but the fear of the toilet trip still stayed but then at 16 it started again like i would wake from my sleep petrified and literally get out of bed amd walk to the window at of the opposite side of my bedroom to which i shared with my little brother,when i would look out the window i eould see a clear figure of a man in a white hooded jumper and dark pants but i could never remember a face or pick a description out which made me sure it was not a human peeping tom,i would try wake my brother quietly however he was a deep sleeper this went on for the first 10 months of that year everynight the same thing,i did not tell my dad as i knew he would joke of it but then one night to my surprise my brother woke to me standing at the window staring and said chica chica are you ok what are you doing and me frozen with fear did not turn so naturally worried he came to window and saw the figure of the man and yelled out to dad and as he did the figure dissapeared and dad of course said it was prob just a dream and went outside with the flash light to see or find anybody,this kept going the waking up however my brother did not sense my fear not wake up like the previous time and then one week later my dad and brothers went to a sleep over fifa world cup soccer match at the community hall with friends and i chose to stay home alone (stupidly) on that night same scenario the figure standing by the window just standing this time usually over come by fear i felt a anger and rage in and proceeded to open to the window and yell out what do you want from me ? why are you are ? go away leave me alone please just fuckoff i don’t want you here from this the figured stared this time with a face to whom i felt i recognized then dissapeared the next morning when my father arrived home i ran to him bursting in tears telling him of the fear and taunting going on and that he was watching me from this my father believed me and never left my sight at dark time and i never saw this figure for the rest of the year i then at 17 left home and moved to another state QLD where my mother was a year passed by nothing scary happening just usual insomnia (couldn’t sense any presence or fear) and just put it down to “an over active mind” then however at 18 i moved into a shared house and this only way i can describe it is evil spirit came over me in my sleep i know i was fast asleep and calm then out of nowhere i felt my body tighten up and felt a presence at the end of the bed feeling scared i tried to roll over but felt imobilised and then felt a breath in my ear (as if someone blew wind in to my ear-windows were completely) closed) i then felt like as if there was physically a human on my body as my chest my being pressed down on so heavy like i was being held down still frozen and able to scream or open my eyes i honestly felt and thought as if someone broke in and i was about to be raped as a result but then out of fear and survival mode adrenelin must have kicked in because i had full moment and jerk my body to side and managed to scream help(with no sound) and opened my eyes to see no human figure but as i fought it of i felt like it went thru my body (can’t explain it properly) but i can tell you i was awake and alert when it happened and i was in hysterics with tears in my eyes body shaking neck fully sweating.i then stayed up all night and out fear of looking like the crazy girl that moved in to my housemates i never spoke a word of it and it did not return but then however i moved again some time later roughly a year and it happened again exact same events this time i called my then friend kurt who is of maori (NZ) decendence at 3:00am in the morning bursting in to tears to which bless his soul did not laugh and think i was crazy but instead told me that in maori folk lore it is believed that evil spirits prey on those who are of good nature and or of sensitive state (weak and vunerable) as they thrives off power and your fear as it makes a easy target,with this his stayed on the phone til the sun rose at 6am just comforting me as i was in a very confused almost “crazy lost and scared/confused” state this then never returned until the age of 19 when i moved back to coffs harbour as i secretly and scaredly thought i may have been ready for a mental breakdown i moved in with my sister and with in the second night of being in my room it happened again all the same events i kept quite and spoke nothing of it then one day i felt like i needed to speak about it (i was starting to question my sanity) so i waited for my other sister to come stay over and see what she could make of it (we are very close and 100% open about everything,god bless her) so she came over and i just blurted it out something kuni please help me someone is trying to kill me i mean really hurt me a spirit a bad one a man i am really scared please tell me i’m not crazy sis please i need you i feel afraid all time now my sister concerned told mw that maybe it was just a “bad energy” from the last tenant maybe he was violent towards his girlfriend and that energy did not leave with him but lingered finding comfort in this i hugged my sister and said please don’t think i’m crazy kuni i am being honest i am so afraid with this i went to bed normally and my sister slept in the living room i said good night and she said don’t be afraid chic i am here if anything happens to yell to me and i will help you with this i went to bed slept soundly and peacefully then got up for a wee and as i opened the door to walk to the bathroom there was my sister in the living room on the couch staring at me intensly with a pale white face and scared teary eyes me concerned said kun what’s up (sub conciously i knew exactly what was going on) and she just sat there in tears as i came closer and blurted out chic it happened that spirit it tried to hurt me i then sat and hugged her as she was now in tears telling me that it pressed down on her chest but this if it the same presence spoke to her and said that “she will go crazy and loose her mind in 6 months” with this we woke up oour eldest sister bianca to whom did not want to hear a piece of it (i sensed really bad fear in her tone) as she said stop it don’t be stupid you were imagining it now shutup i don’t want to speak of this nonsense again,my question is : for my personal experience what is a evil spirit of a sexual violent nature ? was it the same spirit as when i was a child just more sick and violent and time progressed ? what about my sister is it the same spirit on the man ? and why my sister ? and why is my oldest sister so hesitant and hostile about this matter ? is she haunted by these evil spirits aswell bit to afraid to speak ? please give me answers as i desperately seek them and a way out

Hi Deborah, I’m hoping you can help me with some insight. My mother passed away suddenly at home 6 days ago. I love and miss my mom very much. I loved my mom so much that I bought the house directly across the street from her last year. I’m a 25 year old female and still needed her. Anyway, the night after she passed I woke up at 4:00 am, but attributed it to stress/grieving. Since then, I have woke up at 4am two more times. Last night was different though. When I woke up, I truly felt like she was with me. There was an overwhelming sense of a presence. However, I felt so anxious and almost scared. My heart was racing. I also heard 3 faint, but definitely audible, knocks. I have to say that have been skeptical about the spirit world at times in my life. I just find myself so desperate when I think about my mom contacting me. My question is, why did i have so much anxiety last night if that was her? I would never feel afraid of my mom. I even remember feeling guilty and thinking, “Just try again mom. I promise I won’t be afraid next time.” Will I be able to notice signs from my mom throughout my lifetime? Thank you for your time.

Hi Tiffany. I am so sorry for your loss. Though your mom is definitely doing quite well in spirit, that doesn’t help us “here” in the physical world and lesson how much we miss them. The three knocks were “I love you”. I have always used that three-tap rule for expressing love. When my husband and I are holding hands, we squeeze each other three times to convey our love! The early morning hours, the veil between our world and spirit is at it’s thinnest and you wake up because she is near and you feel her! Even so…it’s an unknown thing…what if it’s not her (but it is!) and the worry something is wrong if it IS her (which it is and nothing is wrong other than her concern for you!). Also…you want it to be her and are afraid it isn’t! That causes the anxiety. Be at peace in knowing she is well and trying to let you know that she is well and near you still. Whenever you think of her…truly need her…she’ll be there. Ask for a sign…she’ll give you one!! I talk to my grandparents all the time…I feel them near and I don’t doubt it. Once in a while I ask them for a sign but I don’t need that from them every time. I send you many blessings and vibrations of love!! Whenever you want to have a special moment with your mom…light a candle (fire represents the light of spirit burning bright)…it raises the energy and creates focus for what you are doing. Then talk to her and feel her near…whatever loving thoughts come through your mind…that is her! Blessings.
