Maybe you’ve been visited by a spirit from another realm. It might be that you feel there is an entity attaching to you somehow or stuck in karmic loops. Or maybe you’re just curious as to the nature of spirits: what they do, why they appear, where they reside, and how they can be in both the spirit world and this physical reality? I see spirits all the time. Some of them are negative energies and scare the heck out of me. Others are so sweet that I can barely handle it.
The veils between here and “there” are thin. While our lives might appear to be one solid experience with clearly defined forms and boundaries, the truth is far more complex and bizarre.
As we relate to people in our daily lives, we must remember that they comprise a tiny subset of a much larger group of relationships with whom we relate on a regular basis.
When we awake in the morning, we might feel as though we are alone. We might even love our solitude. The reality is that we are never 100% alone. There are always spirits wandering about. They might not be sitting on our beds as we sip our morning java, but you can be certain that some are hovering or meandering somewhere near your home.
Spirits are everywhere. They come and go within this realm and on this planet and throughout many others. Spacetime is not limited in any way. And neither are spirits.
Where Do Spirits Live?
Like you and me, each spirit has its own electromagnetic signature and vibration. This means it will magnetize aspects of itself—to itself—just like you and I would attract situations, relationships, and learning in our physical lives here on planet Earth.
Whether they know it or not, spirits can dematerialize and reappear at will. They might not even know when they are appearing and disappearing. Their electromagnetic signatures have a life of their own.
Most spirits aren’t fully conscious of their skills or the nature of their form. Most often, they behave like children playing Hide-n-Go-Seek or lost puppies who lost track of how to get home to the spirit world.
We are each a collection of particles continuously moving from one reality to another. It’s the same with spirits and it’s the same with every physical object in our lives—the chair, the computer, the couch. Everything is moving within itself and outside itself without any limiting boundaries. The only limiting boundaries are form, assumption, intention, and vibration—all of which are changeable.
And now the super complex part….
What Are Spirits?
Have you ever wondered what is infused in a spirit’s vibration or what the idea of a ghost is all about?
While you, me, and any spirit might appear to be a very specific thing, there’s a lot going on under the hood. It might look like an old, fucked-up truck – but it may have a strong engine and just have been built in a way to make you think it’s got no teeth. It might appear to be a GMC Pacer or Toyota Prius in the picture, but once you get a look at the engine, you’ll know the nature of the beast.
Each of us has lived thousands of lives. We live, we get excited, we do stuff, then we die. At the moment of our death, we imagine where we are headed, and since we don’t usually clean our palates at death, we don’t die very well and head into the spirit world. We leave our bodies, feel confused, get a sense that we have some unfinished business and juicy desires, choose another mom or dad, and then, within six months of Earth time, we end up birthing into a similar form doing similar things.
Why Do Spirits Follow You?
This is one of my favorite questions.
One of the more probable answers to “Why do spirits follow you?” is that it’s someone you knew from this life or a prior life that’s going through a karmic cycle. This spirit might feel unresolved about prior life interactions with you or they’ve come to tell you they love you. They might even just want to hang out with you. Why? They might be bored or they might need to watch you for a while so they can learn something specific from you.
The spirit might also be someone who wants to know you but hasn’t met you within a physical life experience yet.
And yes, some spirits just want to cuddle. I know that sounds a bit scary, but it’s really no big deal. It’s like when a puppy nuzzles up to you. Just relax and ask them to follow the light and go elsewhere in the spirit world.
While some people like me tend to sensationalize this idea of detached spirits and all the dangers—that’s so rare, it’s not even worth mentioning. They are as open as boundaries and a nudge to leave as all the positive and peaceful spirits. They just might need a little more love for a moment. You can also just chant your mantra or a sutra and hold the intention that they find the light.
From a spiritual-lesson perspective, here’s another answer: If you attracted it, it’s you! You are the Universe. You are everything! No matter what is in front of you or within you, you must deal with it as if it were an aspect of YOU. Because it is. You are what you seek. You are what you see. You are what you attract. You are what you project. You are what you experience. Own it all, forgive it all, and release it all. In truth, it’s all nothing.
When we have negative energies and spirits attaching to us, it’s a really GOOD SIGN. It’s a wake-up call. Just like in real life, when a crazy person tries to hurt you in some way, it’s God saying, “Hey, you might want to look at this part of yourself.”
What To Do If You See A Spirit
I see spirits all the time and talk to spirits. Some of them are negative energies and scare the heck out of me. Others are so sweet that I can barely handle it. Here’s the thing—all of these spirits are the same. They are a little lost and they need love. For each spirit who engages me, I might scream at first LOL, but then I immediately tell them I love them. When talking to spirits, I say things like:
“You are so beautiful and so loved. I am with you and I want you to be happy. God loves you. The light is waiting for you. Follow the light, follow your heart, and seek your highest Self. You are love, my dear. Go toward love and become it! Follow that light and you’ll feel better. I LOVE YOU!”
If you attracted them, even negative energies, they are either interested in your Lightbody or they recognize their shadows as being the same ones within you. It doesn’t really matter why or how they appeared. What matters is that you love them and you want them to be happy. Doing so, you might also see and feel things within yourself that require forgiving.
Look at every aspect of yourself and your life and forgive it all. Go piece by piece, person by person, circumstance by circumstance, and forgive everything about everything, forever backward and forward.
Dissolving it all, we can Be Here Now.
Loving it all, We Can Be Without Fear.
Fear is good because it reminds us of the unprotected parts of our lives. We can then improve those parts. Soon, most fears can become little friends who continue to remind us to protect ourselves.
Fear and negative energies can also be nasty sores. We need to look honestly at our fears and look for ways to either uplevel them into love or dissolve them into history.
