A hound of justice
Okay, so I wanted to basically see what people think of Paranormal activity/Occurances. I don't mean the films, I mean legitimate claims to paranormal activity.
I personally am a spiritualist. I believe that we come back to be with those we love as a spirit. We either come back and stay rooted to one spot if our lives were unfulfilled and if there is something we have not finished in life that we have set out to, or we are unchained to a spot and are free to be with whomever we want to if we feel fulfilled.
The reason why this is significant is because I do think that a lot of what "happens" depends on your own belief. If you believe things happen, then they often will.
However, I do have several...things that have happened in my life that make me feel like I have indeed had people visiting.
So...here we go.
- My aunt died around about 7 years ago from substance abuse. This time was very difficult for us as a family and I was young, understanding the concept of death but not how to grieve as this was my first encounter with death up close and personally. In my mums house, was a fireplace, with a mantle shelf (a small shelf for odds and ends) above it. We stored books that we had finished reading as sort of a means of sharing books with one another as me and my mum are big readers. A book that was 3rd in the line from the end, on the right hand side, began to wobble on that night and we watched in amazement as it not just wobbled but threw itself from the shelf onto the floor. The bizarre thing - this book had not been touched in over 9 months and wasn't at the end of the shelf.
- My great grandma died a few weeks after this. I had just done washing up, and had rested some blue glass plates on the sink board, at the back, making sure they would not fall off. In front of these plates was a heavy iron pot. I went into the living room and heard a "chink" noise. I went back into the kitchen to see one of the blue plates on the floor. The floor was a heavy tiled floor, so anything glass hitting it would have smashed. This plate was rested perfectly on its base, the opposite side of the kitchen, with no damage whatsoever.
- My nan died some six months after. Apparations are said to arrive in many forms, and white feathers is hers. We've had white feathers appear in the oddest of places, where they shouldnt, and they don't just land in front of you. They twirl around you, almost dancing around you, they rise and fall...and all of these feathers are found INDOORS, where windows and doors have been shut and there are no feather products around.
- Any time I speak out to my nan, I feel a coldness around my neck and shoulders. My nan used to hug me from behind like this often.
- I have a friend who confessed multiple times that she loved me. She would tell me it often and a large part of me would feel the same, however we had very different lives, and two months ago I was devastated when I found out she had committed suicide. I realised a lot about myself and started to phase in and out of consciousness a lot whilst laying down. Some would say I was just falling asleep, but I was not, my eyes would roll in the back of my head, my breathing would slow right the way down and I would almost auto asphyxiate I was breathing that slowly. During this time I would picture a large ball of swirling light, an energy, and then faces. I would hear voices also and see things. The last thing I saw was last night, during one of these moments, where I saw Jeisa's face (my friend) and she told me she loved me. This to me is more an instance of medium-ship than it is an actual occurance. But yet every time I think of her, I get a similar feeling to the one above - one of pure happiness and bliss, yet a cold feeling around my shoulders and chest.
I am a heavy believer in spiritualism, I actually would love to follow this up and become something more - like a medium or something.
How does everyone else feel surrounding paranormal occurances? Is it just your mind playing tricks? (I've felt and wondered this myself), or is it something more, and does it all really happen?
Have you had any things happen to you that you just can't explain, something that could only be explained as otherworldly?
