We are all here for two key spiritual purposes – to serve and to learn. Every one of us has a distinct calling to pursue and lessons to grasp for karmic development and soul advancement.

The contributions we are intended to offer and the lessons we are meant to grasp are distinct to each individual, and it’s our responsibility to discover these facets of our soul pathway as we journey through life.

Our guides and angels serve as a significant resource in this journey, though they frequently remain unnoticed or unacknowledged. These spiritual entities operate subtly from behind the scenes to offer guidance, support, and protection as we navigate our life paths.

Their main purpose is to assist us in accomplishing our mission of being of service, attaining our karmic lessons, and experiencing growth. If we fail to fulfill our purpose or grasp our lessons, these will continue to manifest in our lives in various forms until we recognize, resolve, accept, or embrace them.

Our guides and angels are perpetually in the background – awaiting our call for their wisdom and permitting them to aid us in realizing our soul plan. By connecting with our spiritual team, we open ourselves up to personal growth and spiritual progress.

Our spirit and angel guides are kind non-physical beings who act as intermediaries between the material and spiritual dimensions. Each of us has guides who are designated to assist us, regardless of whether we acknowledge their existence.

Spirit guides are souls that have experienced human existence before and have chosen to remain in the spiritual realm to aid others on their earthly paths. They can relate to the difficulties of human experience as they have lived it, making them particularly empathetic toward our challenges and advancement.

I believe everyone possesses their own soul team aligned with their unique soul signature to guide and support them toward achieving their fullest potential. Once I recognized that, I felt a significant relief and no longer felt isolated ~ Jen Thomas 

Spirit guides can manifest as ancestral guides, loved ones who have passed on, the spirits of wise shamans and sages from various cultures, or ascended masters. Their guidance is tailored to facilitate our growth, impart life lessons, and promote our evolution.

Angel guides are divine entities of light who have never experienced human life. Angels, particularly guardian angels, are tasked with providing protection, love, and encouragement. They serve as direct messengers from the Divine, directing us toward our highest good and assisting us in connecting with elevated frequencies of love, peace, and harmony.

Regrettably, many spiritually aware individuals frequently overlook their guides, often due to ego, fear, or misunderstanding. I have observed this numerous times in readings. People feel enthusiasm when they sense a nudge or receive direction from their guides, but then they often second-guess themselves out of it.

Fear, especially fear of the unknown, or the ego’s need to maintain complete control is often the root of this reluctance. What if they don’t succeed? What if it fails? What if they misinterpret the guidance? Such fears and doubts often keep individuals stagnant, opting for the comfort of the known instead of the uncertainty of change.

When Spirit reveals to them the amazing possibilities that exist, fear can still impede their progress. The promise of success may not be sufficient to break their pattern of self-sabotage.

When you find yourself entangled in a fear-driven thought or behavior, you can reach out to your guides to bring you back to love. To receive their guidance, all you need is to be willing to let go of your fear and perceive with spiritual clarity ~ Gabrielle Bernstein

However, for those willing to embrace a leap of faith, heeding our guides can lead to remarkable accomplishments and growth. We simply need to pay attention to the subtle nudges and instructions from our guides, even when they feel uncomfortable or uncertain. Change, although often challenging, ultimately results in positive outcomes when we place our trust in the process.

Challenging times are frequently integral to our growth and fulfillment journey. Adversity stretches our limits, reveals our capabilities, invites self-reflection, and helps us acquire knowledge and experience. Difficult situations can teach us how to confront challenges and share those lessons with others.

Our guides are always present to aid us on our journey. By tuning into their presence and asking for their help, we can enhance our spiritual awareness, gain insights, and feel more supported as we face life’s trials. The answers are typically right before us – we just need to be willing to observe and listen.

A client sought my insight on the Ouija board after learning her teenage son had participated in the “game” at a friend’s home.

Honestly, I find it challenging to even write about this topic, which reveals my genuine thoughts and emotions concerning it.

The Ouija board might appear as a harmless board game or an entertaining psychic instrument for spiritual exploration. Yet, there are substantial reasons to approach this supposed “game” with considerable caution, if not avoid it altogether.

In my experience as a spiritual counselor, I’ve assisted several clients over the years who engaged with the Ouija board and other questionable forms of spirit communication, including necromancy. Although interacting with the spirit world can provide significant opportunities for healing, growth, and connection, it is not something to be taken lightly.

Enhancing your intuition and spiritual connection is a beautiful and uplifting journey. It enables you to become more aware of the unseen and to reach out to your departed loved ones, ancestors, spirit guides, and angels. However, this form of communication and interaction requires respect, reverence, and sincere intention.

Well-meaning practices such as divination, psychic readings, and mediumship are fundamentally different from opening yourself indiscriminately, without safeguards, to any and all spiritual beings and energies.

When you recklessly open yourself through the Ouija board or other unchecked methods, you relinquish your ability to control who and what enters your energy sphere and interacts with your soul. It’s akin to throwing open the door to your aura and allowing a crowd of strangers inside, some of whom may not harbor the best intentions.

Never invite in a lesser evil, for greater horrors will inevitably follow in its wake ~ Baltasar Gracián

You lack a filtering mechanism, gatekeepers, safeguards, or protective barriers. This is precisely why I advise against using the Ouija board or any unstructured method for spirit communication.

Your departed loved ones, ancestors, spirit guides, and divine angels serve as protective buffers, permitting only those energies aligned with our highest good. When you reach out through them, you reap the benefits of their wisdom, discernment, and guarding. Without their presence, you might inadvertently attract lower vibrational entities into your life, which can adversely affect your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health.

The Mysterious Origins Of The Ouija

Also referred to as a spirit board, talking board, or witch board, the Ouija board is a flat, rectangular wooden surface inscribed with the Latin alphabet, numbers 0-9, the words “yes” and “no,” and sometimes “hello” and “goodbye,” along with other symbols. A planchette, typically a small heart-shaped piece of wood or plastic, serves as a mobile indicator to spell out messages from spirits during a séance. Participants lightly touch the planchette, which glides across the board, pointing to letters or symbols that form words.

Although the Ouija board is commodified as a board game, its true purpose was originally to facilitate spirit communication. Not much is known about its actual origins, except that it emerged during 19th-century spiritualism, a belief system rooted in diverse cultural and religious practices centered on communication with the spirit world and belief in an afterlife. Influences that may have set the stage include shamanism, where shamans act as intermediaries between the physical and spiritual worlds, and mesmerism, which investigated the manipulation of an invisible force for healing through trance.

Early religious movements in the United States, like the Quakers, also encouraged direct personal experiences with the divine, while Enlightenment thinkers investigated the essence of the soul and consciousness. Additionally, ghost tales and folklore across cultures expressed a longstanding interest in spirits, laying the groundwork for spiritualism to emerge as a formal movement and belief system.

Factors contributing to the rise of spiritualism and mediumship in the mid-1800s included significant loss of life from wars, diseases, and industrial mishaps. Mass fatalities, quick industrialization and urbanization, along with substantial social transformations, fostered a sense of insecurity and erosion of traditional values. Spiritualism offered comfort and a sense of spiritual connection. It also responded to scientific progress and an emerging fascination with the esoteric.

The movement gained traction through prominent figures such as the Fox sisters – Margaret, Kate, and Leah – who communicated with spirits at their home in Hydesville, New York. Séances, table-turning, and automatic writing became common practices during this era, comforting a society grappling with short life spans, war, and pervasive grief.

As early as 1886, some spiritualists commenced using a “talking board” similar to the contemporary Ouija board, particularly at their gatherings in Ohio. In the late 1800s in Chestertown, Maryland, Charles Kennard, a businessman with a talent for seizing opportunities, along with E.C. Reiche, a coffin maker and undertaker, were inspired by early spiritualist boards and began collaborating to create their own edition.

When Kennard later moved to Baltimore seeking investors for his talking board innovation, he faced numerous rejections until local attorney Elijah Bond found interest in the project. With his sister-in-law, the renowned medium Helen Peters, Bond helped patent the board in 1891. Interestingly, it was tested and confirmed to function at the U.S. Patent Office before the patent was granted, adding to the allure and mystery of the Ouija.

During World War I, spiritualist Pearl Curran further popularized the board as a divining tool, altering its perception and application in spiritual practices. In modern times, it is advertised as a fun novelty item that connects the material with the immaterial. Although “Ouija” is a registered trademark of Hasbro (which acquired Parker Brothers), the term is often generically used to denote any similar talking board employed for spirit communication.

A small amount of knowledge about the occult can be perilous. Unless used for benevolent purposes, disaster will ensue. That is Cosmic Law ~ Clarence Upson Young

Engaging With Spirits Is Not A Game

Engaging with spirits, whether via mediumship, channeling, divination, or other occult practices, should never be taken lightly. It is a sacred art that demands preparation, respect, and protection.

When conducted properly, communicating with spirits can be enlightening, insightful, and healing. It can provide comfort and closure to those mourning the loss of loved ones. It can deepen our spiritual practice and enhance our understanding of karmic lessons and soul journeys. Moreover, it can grant us divine inspiration and guidance, along with insights into our futures and destinies.

This is not mere entertainment. If we approach spiritual communication with a careless mindset, we undermine the sacredness of the bond. Particularly, mediumship must be exercised with caution.

A responsible and seasoned medium understands how to distinguish between different types of energies and spirit entities, recognizing the significance of invoking protection before engaging with unseen realms. This cannot be achieved with a piece of cardboard and a plastic pointer.

Opening yourself to the spirit realm without adequate preparation and safeguards is potentially a perilous endeavor. It’s similar to igniting a match in a dense, dry forest. Once the flames take hold, they can swiftly spiral out of control, consuming everything in their path before you even realize the extent of the danger you’re in.

My Professional Experience With Victims

In my professional journey, I have assisted various clients who mistakenly treated the Ouija board as a harmless game or an amusing experiment to delve into the paranormal. Regrettably, they swiftly discovered that it was far from harmless. These clients approached me in distress, confusion, depression, anxiety, and fear, seeking ways to liberate themselves from the intrusive negative energies or entity attachments acquired by “playing” Ouija.

None of the entities encountered through the Ouija board were friendly spirits. Rather, they were all energies that thrived on fear, confusion, destruction, and chaos. Some clients reported nightmares, disturbances within their homes, mental health struggles, and even physical symptoms of distress.

Considerable spiritual healing and energy work were necessary to cleanse their energy fields and help restore a sense of tranquility. Many felt vulnerable and shaken, realizing that what they had perceived as merely a “game” had serious and real consequences. When you open yourself to the spirit world without protection or intent, you may become a magnet for energies you wish to avoid.

While the board is a constant presence in American pop culture, very little information is available about its origins…the history of the Ouija is as enigmatic as the operation of the board itself ~ Baynard Woods

The Significance Of Spiritual Protection

So, how can you safeguard yourself if you’re curious about exploring spirit communication in a secure and sacred manner? The essence lies in intention, preparation, and calling upon your guides.

Prior to engaging in any type of spirit communication, whether it’s divination, channeling, mediumship, or invocation, it’s vital to ground and shield your energy while setting a clear intention. Are you hoping to connect with a loved one who has passed on? Are you seeking guidance? Are you merely inquisitive about the spirit realm? Your intention serves as a filter, directing your energy toward a distinct goal or outcome. Without it, you may inadvertently expose yourself to various unwanted energies and spirit attachments.

In the most severe cases, it could even result in spirit possession. In such instances, a negative or hostile entity takes partial or full control over a person’s physical body, mind, or energy, influencing their thoughts, actions, and emotions in harmful manners. This can present as drastic shifts in personality, unpredictable physical symptoms, or a feeling of disconnection from one’s self.

Unlike healthy spirit communication, in which guides and loved ones connect respectfully, possession involves an intrusive force that seeks to influence or drain the individual’s energy, frequently causing distress, fear, and disruption to everyday life. Exorcising such an entity usually necessitates the assistance of a trained spiritual practitioner or healer to purge the energy and restore equilibrium.

Your guides provide a crucial layer of protection. These spiritual beings are aligned with your highest good and serves as gatekeepers, permitting entry only to energies that resonate with your path. Before attempting to make contact with any spirits, take a moment to invoke your guides. This can be done through prayer, meditation, or simply stating aloud that you seek their protection and guidance.

It’s also essential to construct a sacred environment for your spiritual practices. Whether it’s a dedicated room, a small altar, or even just a cozy candlelit nook, creating a space where you feel secure and centered establishes the right ambiance for the work ahead. Protective crystals, like black tourmaline or amethyst, along with visualization techniques, can also help shield you from negative energies.

While the Ouija board may present itself as an alluring avenue for exploring the spirit world, it carries significant hazards. Communicating with spirits is a sacred endeavor that requires respect, intention, and protection. If approached as a game or casual experiment, the repercussions could be harmful and enduring.

Safeguard yourself by honoring the sanctity of the process. Reflect on positive experiences, call upon your guides for defense, and ensure you are grounded and prepared before engaging in any spiritual work. This will enable you to explore spiritual realms safely while keeping your energy and home protected from unwanted influences.

The Ouija board is a device that has captivated and intrigued individuals for generations. Frequently viewed as a mere game, it has a profound history and greater significance that extends beyond simple amusement. In this article, we will delve into the captivating intricacies of the Ouija board, revealing its origins, uses, and the controversies that accompany it.

The Ouija board, also known as a spirit board or talking board, is a flat surface marked with letters, numbers, and other symbols. It typically features a movable indicator, referred to as a planchette, which is utilized to spell messages from spirits or other supernatural forces. The board is commonly employed in a séance or as a divination method.

The beginnings of the Ouija board can be traced back to the late 19th century during a time when spiritualism was on the rise. Spiritualism is a belief structure that posits that the spirits of the deceased can communicate with those still living. Initially, the Ouija board was marketed as a parlor game, however, it rapidly gained the reputation for its supposed capacity to connect with the spirit realm.

The contemporary version of the Ouija board was patented in 1891 by Elijah Bond, Charles Kennard, and William H.A. Maupin. Its popularity soared during World War I when many sought comfort and connection with their departed loved ones. Since then, the Ouija board has become a fixture in pop culture, featured in films, literature, and television programs.

While many regard the Ouija board as an innocuous pastime, others assert it can serve as a powerful medium for interfacing with the spirit realm. Some users claim to have received precise and meaningful messages from the board, while others dismiss it as nothing more than the result of subconscious movements or the ideomotor effect.

The ideomotor effect is a psychological phenomenon where a person makes unconscious movements without recognizing it. Skeptics contend that the movement of the planchette on the Ouija board is attributable to this effect, rather than any supernatural influence. They argue that the messages obtained are merely a reflection of the participants’ own thoughts and beliefs.

Regardless of skepticism, numerous reports recount eerie and unexplainable occurrences related to the Ouija board. Many users assert to have encountered spirits, secured accurate predictions, or experienced strange phenomena while utilizing the board. These narratives have ignited both interest and fear surrounding the Ouija board.

It’s vital to acknowledge that utilizing the Ouija board can be a profoundly personal and potentially intense endeavor. It is advisable to approach it with caution and respect. Some believe that the Ouija board can open channels to negative or malevolent entities and caution against using it without adequate knowledge or protection.

In conclusion, the Ouija board is much more than a simple game. Its roots in spiritualism, its claimed ability to connect with the spirit world, alongside the controversies it raises, establish it as a captivating tool for exploration and self-discovery. Whether you perceive it as a harmless pastime or a powerful gateway to the unknown, the Ouija board continues to fascinate and intrigue those willing to venture into its depths. Continue reading →

As a psychic medium, I frequently get asked various inquiries regarding the spirit world and what lies beyond this life.

Is there existence after this one? Where do souls go upon passing? How can we ascertain whether our departed loved ones are nearby? What are the signs that they are alright on the other side?

The first aspect I usually clarify is the essence of soul energy, consciousness, and the afterlife.

Everything consists of energy. We are pure energy, and energy is indestructible; it merely changes its form. Hence, death, as we perceive it, is nonexistent.

Our soul energy represents the core of our identity, a type of eternal energy that surpasses the physical form.

When we no longer require our physical vessel, our energy transitions to a new form. Some refer to this as heaven or the afterlife, but it’s essentially energy existing in a different state, at a higher consciousness level.

Our consciousness does not cease with physical death; rather, it transcends it, while our soul maintains awareness, memories, and connections to other souls. The soul’s journey continues; it develops and remains linked to all it has encountered in this lifetime.

Is there a notion of “hell,” “purgatory,” or a realm of “eternal punishment”? In my experience, no spirit has ever conveyed to me that they are in a “bad” place or that they are enduring any form of suffering or retribution.

Although physical life concludes for individuals, love and energy persist. Don’t be surprised if your cherished one in Heaven reaches out to reassure you that they are well ~ Melanie Beckler

Hence, the spirits of our passed loved ones continue to inhabit the spirit realm, preserving the ability to communicate with the living through subtle cues, dreams, and energy impressions. This ongoing consciousness explains why we can sense the presence of our deceased loved ones and receive signals, messages, and guidance from them, as they support and assist us from their new state of existence.

Typical Spirit Signs

Spirits enjoy making their presence felt through familiar, comforting signs:

Dreams: One of the most significant ways spirits convey messages is through dreams. In such dreams, the departed appear vibrant, joyful, and serene. During these dream visitations, we may interact or converse with them. Even deceased pets might appear in dreams or be sensed walking alongside you. These dreams often feel more intense and emotionally substantial than regular dreams, leaving a sense of tranquility or closure upon waking.

Discovering Objects: Spirits frequently leave small mementos, like coins or feathers, at meaningful times and in unusual locations. You might stumble upon a penny, dime, or quarter in the most surprising spots. Occasionally, you’ll gaze at an empty area only to find a coin there moments later. Feathers are another frequent sign, often found outdoors as if they fell from the sky, sometimes matching the color of a bird that your loved one cherished. Finding a heart-shaped rock can feel like a special gift from a departed loved one, with some people cherishing these rocks and carrying them as a connection reminder.

Object Movement: Spirits occasionally shift objects, perhaps knocking a book from a shelf or adjusting a picture frame just enough to catch your eye. This could be a book you were intending to read or a photograph of your beloved. You might even observe a picture frame tilting repeatedly. These playful acts intend to remind you that they are still present with you.

Apports: Objects that mysteriously appear or vanish. Apports can show up inexplicably and then vanish as swiftly as they came. They might materialize out of nowhere or thin air. These apports often bear personal or symbolic relevance to the recipient, like items from a deceased loved one.

Smells: Spirits may use familiar scents, such as a favored cologne or a fragrance tied to their life. For instance, a mechanic might signify his presence through the odor of gasoline or grease. A grandmother famed for her baking may evoke the scent of her beloved pies. These sensory experiences can also be regarded as clairvoyant moments.

Insects: Butterflies, dragonflies, ladybugs, and other insects have historically been seen as spiritual messengers. These delicate beings symbolize the connection between the physical and spiritual realms. When they appear unexpectedly or linger around us during significant moments, they serve as gentle reminders of the departed’s proximity, offering solace, guidance, or simply a reminder of their lasting presence.

Birds and Animals: Many notice signs involving a bird or animal associated with a particular loved one. These creatures may act in unexpected manners or appear unexpectedly during moments when reassurance is needed.

Music: Have you ever recognized a specific song on the radio or unexpectedly that evokes memories of a loved one? Spirits enjoy communicating via music. You might hear a song that holds significance for you both or a melody that suddenly reminds you of them.

Numbers: Observing recurring sequences of numbers like 111, 222, 333, or significant dates, such as anniversaries or birthdays, often indicates a sign from a loved one. These numbers appear repeatedly on clocks, license plates, receipts, and other unexpected locations to remind you of their presence.

Temperature Fluctuations: At times, spirits announce their presence through a sudden draft or warmth in the vicinity.

Electrical Anomalies: Flickering lights, gadgets switching on and off, or appliances behaving erratically can signify messages from the other side. These electrical oddities are often playful methods for spirits to inform you of their closeness.

Spontaneous Memories: You might suddenly think of them or recall a memory that appears random or even misplaced but relates to your loved one. These mental sparks emerge unexpectedly, serving as reminders that they remain with you. It’s reasonable to think that if they come to mind suddenly, they are indeed with you.

Signs from our departed loved ones are often subtle, prompting many to question whether they are genuine or merely figments of the mind. The straightforward answer is, if you find yourself pondering it, it is typically authentic. If it weren’t, you likely wouldn’t have noticed it initially.

A million different occurrences unfold throughout your day, and none attract your attention. When an otherwise mundane event suddenly captures your focus and prompts you to consider if it’s a sign from your loved one in spirit…it likely is ~ Melanie Jade Rummel

Spirit Interactions & Encounters

Can our deceased loved ones engage with us physically? Based on my experiences, they absolutely can and do. In truth, they may do so in numerous ways beyond merely sending us signs or messages through a medium like myself.

For instance, spirits sometimes gently touch our faces, heads, or backs! This sensation, typically felt by those who are receptive, is often a light touch. When this occurs, you might not realize it’s a spirit’s presence. Some individuals report experiencing similar sensations with departed pets, feeling the animal gently walk against their legs or around their heads while in bed, especially during moments of drifting in and out of sleep.

Other means of interaction may include physical manifestations, like apparitions or inexplicable object movements. Spirits may also announce their presence through sounds, scents, or tastes. For example, we might hear their voices, detect a particular fragrance linked to the deceased loved one, or taste their beloved dishes.

While spirits desire to reassure us of their ongoing presence, they also acknowledge the importance of our living fully in this reality. They do not wish for us to grow reliant on their signs or dwell in the past perpetually. If signs were constant, some might find it challenging to progress in their lives.

Spirits encourage us to embrace life and have faith that when our time arrives, we will reunite. Longing for signs continuously won’t compel them to manifest; you must relax, stay open, and allow them to occur naturally.

Grasping and Decoding Spirit Signs from the Other Side

The idea of spirits and the afterlife has intrigued humanity for ages. Many individuals believe that following death, our loved ones persist in communicating with us through various signs and symbols. These spirit signs, often regarded as messages from beyond, can offer comfort, guidance, and reassurance to those willing to receive them. In this piece, we will delve into the significance of comprehending and interpreting these spirit signs.

What are Spirit Signs?

Spirit signs are subtle signals or symbols thought to be sent by spirits from the other side. These signs can appear in different forms, like through dreams, synchronicities, physical sensations, or even animal behaviors. They tend to be deeply personal and may hold significant meaning for the recipient.

Understanding the Objective of Spirit Signs

The main aim of spirit signs is to provide comfort, guidance, and assurance to those mourning or searching for answers. They serve as a means for our departed loved ones to communicate that they remain with us, observing us, and offering their love and support from the other side.

Interpreting Spirit Signs

Decoding spirit signs necessitates an open mind and a readiness to accept the possibility of afterlife communication. Here are some suggestions to aid you in understanding and interpreting these signs:

1. Observe Patterns: Spirit signs frequently manifest in patterns or repetitions. Maintain a journal to track any recurring symbols, numbers, or events that capture your attention. Over time, you may begin to notice emerging patterns, which can help you interpret the conveyed message.

2. Rely on Your Intuition: Intuition is vital in understanding spirit signs. Trust your instincts and gut feelings when encountering these signs. Your intuition can be instrumental in comprehending the message and its relevance to your life.

3. Seek Insights from Others: If you’re having difficulty interpreting a specific spirit sign, consider seeking assistance from those experienced in spiritual communication. They may offer valuable insights and help you navigate the meanings behind the signs you receive.

4. Reflect on Personal Connections: Spirit signs often possess personal relevance. Contemplate your relationship with the departed loved one and any shared memories or experiences. This reflection can assist in grasping the context and meaning behind the signs you’re observing.

5. Keep an Open Heart: It is crucial to approach spirit signs with receptivity. Be open to the messages being conveyed, avoiding dismissing them as mere coincidences. Trust that your loved ones are attempting to reach out to you in their distinct manner.

Conclusion

Grasping and interpreting spirit signs can be a profoundly personal and transformative journey. By watching for patterns, trusting your intuition, seeking guidance, reflecting on personal bonds, and remaining open, you can begin to unravel the messages from the other side. These signs can provide comfort, guidance, and a sense of connection to our departed loved ones, reminding us that love transcends physical barriers and continues to thrive, even after death.

I have always been enthralled by chilling ghost tales. In fact, the more terrifying they are, the better! Since my adolescent years, I have actively sought out sensational supernatural narratives purely for the excitement they bring.

A particular tale that lingers in my thoughts is that of “Pete the Poltergeist.”

During the 1980s, while Britain faced a recession, two self-employed individuals in Cardiff successfully operated a lawnmower repair service known as Mower Services from one of their residences.

On one occasion, one of the men heard noises resembling stones being tossed at the workshop door, but found no one outside when he went to check. The stones appeared to come from thin air!

Subsequently, the men discovered that their keys had been misplaced, and a peculiar odor permeated a specific area of the workshop that had suddenly turned very cold. They even began to find money and witnessed objects hurled across the workshop floor – perplexed about the source and the cause!

Due to this inexplicable activity, they decided to close the shop one night to conduct their own séance-like experiment. They rested their hands on a table, fingers touching, and requested the spirit to throw a stone at them – and it complied! Then one of the men asked for a pen, which was tossed at them too!

What caused this? The two men simply concluded that they had a ghost in their workshop who felt “like a family member,” ultimately giving it the nickname “Pete the Poltergeist.”

I don’t subscribe to the idea that ghosts are “spirits of the deceased” because I don’t recognize death. In the multiverse, once you are a possibility, you exist. And once you exist, you endure forever in one form or another… What we term as ghosts are lifeforms just as we are. ~ Paul F. Eno

After experiencing more of Pete’s playful antics, which included throwing and relocating objects, as well as responding to requests to produce items like money or tools, the homeowner eventually reached out to David Fontana, a Professor of Psychology at Cardiff University and a well-respected parapsychologist known for his involvement in significant paranormal studies.

During several unannounced visits, Fontana witnessed phenomena that convinced him of the poltergeist’s intelligence and purpose. On one occasion, a rock was thrown across the room as he entered, with no discernible source. He meticulously documented the investigation, noting that objects frequently appeared from nowhere or were launched with evident force, leading him to label it the “responsive” poltergeist.

One day, while laboring in the workshop, one of the men glanced up and saw the ghostly figure of a faceless little boy waving at them. Could it be that an entity from the spirit realm was trying to reach out to someone on the earthly plane with an understanding to do so? The man who witnessed it certainly thought so.

The narrative includes how this same man found himself alone in the workshop late one night and began to feel quite uneasy. He kindly requested Pete not to disturb him that night as he was quite busy. Remarkably, he did not encounter any more disturbances from the poltergeist that evening.

The case garnered significant media and public interest, not just due to the consistent activity, but also because of the plethora of witnesses. Local police officers, shop employees, and insurance adjusters alike reported witnessing items flying or hearing unexplained sounds. Fontana’s involvement lent credibility to what evolved into one of the most thoroughly documented poltergeist investigations in the UK.

Eventually, the activity lessened when Mower Services relocated to a new site, but Pete the Poltergeist allegedly followed one of the employees home and continued his playful yet unsettling behavior there.

Understanding Poltergeist Phenomena

Poltergeists represent paranormal phenomena or supernatural events characterized by unaccounted disturbances, typically tied to a specific individual or location. These disturbances generally include knocking or tapping sounds, banging noises, objects moving without cause, flooding, electrical anomalies, and even unexpected fires.

Researchers Alan Gauld and Tony Cornell conducted an evaluation of 500 poltergeist reports, discovering that the most common occurrences involved the movement of small objects (64%), rapping sounds (48%), shifting larger items like chairs and tables (36%), sightings of ghostly figures (29%), and the presence of voices or groaning sounds (26%).

The label “poltergeist” is derived from the German terms poltern, meaning to “crash” or “bang,” and geist which translates to “spirit” or “ghost.” Accounts of poltergeist activity can be traced back to at least 530 A.D., with numerous historical instances attributing such disturbances to ghosts and hauntings. A noteworthy earlier case includes a young nun called Anthoinette de Grollée in France in 1526, who experienced bizarre sounds and visions.

The uproar often seems to carry mischievous intent, thus the traditional connection with ghosts or other supernatural beings. However, in many situations, it could equally arise from a force originating from a living individual ~ Barrie Colvin

Origins Of Poltergeist Activity

Historically, poltergeists have been linked to malevolent spirits or supernatural forces, although current parapsychological theories propose that these disturbances might stem from repressed emotions, particularly in younger persons, manifesting as psychokinetic energy – a concept referred to by investigators as recurrent spontaneous psychokinesis (RSPK). It essentially stipulates that the individual, known as the “living agent,” externalizes or brings forth his or her internal, usually negative emotions.

The investigation of poltergeist phenomena presents challenges. The activity is uncommon, capricious, and often fleeting, making it tough for researchers to obtain conclusive proof. Allegations tend to be anecdotal, susceptible to bias or embellishment. Some cases of fraud have also been revealed, although numerous well-documented incidents have excluded the possibility of fraud. Skeptics argue that these events might result from hoaxes or natural phenomena like seismic activities, though this perspective is not widely embraced by serious scholars.

While public perceptions of poltergeists are significantly shaped by dramatized media portrayals in films such as The Exorcist and Poltergeist, more objective investigations frequently indicate that the evidence is far from definitive. Studies have shown that in many instances, witnesses have engaged in communication with the unseen force, often through coded knocks. Although frequently attributed to ghosts, the psychological interpretations, including RSPK, are gaining traction among researchers.

Nonetheless, certain cases do not involve a specific individual or living agent and appear to signify communication with a disembodied entity, suggesting the possibility that poltergeists could implicate forces from the afterlife. These instances challenge the presumption that all poltergeist phenomena are the result of psychological disturbances in the living.

In contemporary times, some hypotheses posit that poltergeists might be elucidated by extended physics principles, such as psi fields or zero-point energy, which could interact with the physical realm in ways that science has yet to comprehend fully. Although the evidence remains speculative, ongoing inquiries continue to examine these mysterious manifestations.

The Battersea Poltergeist

The account of Pete the Poltergeist stands as one of the most renowned instances of recorded poltergeist phenomena, but it is by no means the sole one. Other notable incidents have been documented and investigated globally. Some of the most meticulously chronicled occurrences in England include Willington, Epworth Rectory, East Midlands, and Andover.

Additionally, there is the well-known case of the Battersea Poltergeist from the 1950s, which involved peculiar and unexplainable occurrences at 63 Wycliffe Road in the Battersea neighborhood of London. The activity revolved around Shirley Hitchings, a teenage girl, along with her family. It commenced in 1956 with sudden loud noises and objects such as slippers moving autonomously, escalating over the next few years into more aggressive disturbances, including spontaneous fires.

The Battersea Poltergeist, dubbed “Donald” by the family, is regarded as one of the most thoroughly documented and enigmatic poltergeist cases in Britain. The incidents captured the attention of investigators and the media, particularly paranormal researcher Harold Chibbett. Despite extensive inquiry, the origins of the events were never conclusively determined, leaving the case unresolved. The activity persisted for 12 years, becoming so infamous that it was even brought up in the British Parliament. Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in the story featured in a popular BBC Radio 4 series, The Battersea Poltergeist, which delved deeply into the case.

Regardless of its origin, a belief in spirits seems to have been prevalent among all ancient civilizations that have left us any record of themselves. Ghosts began to manifest early in human history, and continue to do so today, despite the incessant proclamations that “we’ve resolved these matters” ~ James Russell Lowell

The Enfield Poltergeist

Another notable poltergeist case is the Enfield Poltergeist occurring in London. In 1977, the Hodgson family began experiencing poltergeist phenomena. It focused around two young sisters, Janet and Margaret, who faced bizarre disturbances at home, such as furniture moving, knocking sounds, disembodied voices, and even human levitation! Eleven-year-old Janet was physically lifted and set down in different locations at various times.

The case attracted significant media attention and involved paranormal experts, including Ed and Lorraine Warren, the renowned investigators whose lives inspired the popular Conjuring horror film series. The activity continued for approximately 18 months, during which journalists, neighbors, and paranormal experts reported witnessing heavy furniture moving unaided, hearing a rough voice, incessant tapping sounds, and Janet levitating several feet above the ground.

Poltergeist phenomena remain a subject of fascination and discussion. While some regard them as evidence of ghosts or supernatural entities, others suggest psychological or environmental explanations. Regardless of the perspective, these phenomena confront our understanding of reality, human perception, and the invisible.

These occurrences pose significant questions regarding the boundaries of science, the essence of consciousness, metaphysics, and the influence of belief. Poltergeists serve as a reminder that much of our existence remains enigmatic and unexplained, compelling even the most doubtful among us to reevaluate the broader implications of what we consider real and possible.

Comprehending the Enigmatic Nature of Poltergeist Phenomena

Poltergeist phenomena have intrigued and puzzled individuals for centuries. These mysterious events, characterized by unaccountable noises, objects that move or are thrown, and even physical confrontations, have been reported across various cultures and throughout history. Despite countless investigations and advancements in science, the enigmatic essence of poltergeist occurrences continues to elude explanation.

The term “poltergeist” stems from the German words “poltern” (to create noise) and “geist” (spirit). Unlike conventional ghostly manifestations, poltergeist activity is not linked to a specific spirit or entity. Instead, it is thought to be a representation of psychokinetic energy, often ascribed to an individual, typically an adolescent or young adult, referred to as the “agent.”

One of the most engrossing facets of poltergeist activity is the capacity to influence physical objects. Witnesses have recounted instances of furniture being shifted or upended, doors slamming shut, and objects being hurled across the room. These incidents often occur spontaneously and without any recognizable cause, leaving investigators confounded.

Psychologists and parapsychologists have proposed a variety of theories to elucidate the origin of this psychokinetic energy. Some postulate that the agent may unknowingly harbor telekinetic abilities, the capability to move objects with the mind. Others believe that the energy arises from repressed emotions or psychological stress, which find an avenue through the poltergeist phenomena.

Another puzzling feature of poltergeist phenomena is the capacity to produce unexplainable noises. Observers frequently describe hearing footsteps, knocking sounds, or even voices, despite the absence of any visible source. These auditory phenomena can be especially disconcerting as they defy logical explanations and challenge our comprehension of the physical realm.

Skeptics contend that several poltergeist reports can be linked to natural causes or psychological factors. They argue that creaky floorboards, drafts, or even practical jokes may explain some of the experiences reported. Additionally, skeptics maintain that the power of suggestion and the human predisposition to discern patterns and meanings in random occurrences can fuel belief in poltergeist phenomena.

Nonetheless, there are instances that resist rational clarification. Numerous well-documented cases have occurred in the presence of multiple witnesses, complicating any dismissal of them as mere illusions or trickery. In certain occasions, poltergeist activity has been recorded by investigators utilizing scientific instruments, capturing unexplained variations in temperature, electromagnetic fields, or the emergence of anomalous substances.

Despite the ongoing debate and absence of conclusive proof, researchers persist in examining poltergeist phenomena in their efforts to solve their mysteries. Parapsychologists conduct experiments to explore the potential psychokinetic capabilities of individuals and scrutinize the psychological elements that may act as triggers for poltergeist occurrences. They also assess environmental conditions and the emotional state of the agent to identify possible correlations.

Recently, advancements in technology have enabled more sophisticated investigations. Researchers now employ thermal imaging, motion detectors, and electromagnetic field sensors to collect data and assess the physical dimensions of poltergeist phenomena. Yet, these instruments have yet to yield definitive answers, preserving the enigmatic essence of poltergeist activity.

In summary, the enigmatic nature of poltergeist occurrences continues to engage our curiosity and provoke us to rethink our understanding of the universe. Regardless of centuries of studies and scientific developments, these puzzling events remain evasive and defy straightforward explanations. While skeptics advocate for natural or psychological causes, well-documented instances and unaccounted physical manifestations imply that poltergeist phenomena may encompass more than meets the eye. As researchers persist in their exploration of this enigma, we can only wish for the day when we unravel the mysteries surrounding these perplexing and captivating events. Continue reading →

Plants have been celebrated as nature’s healers for ages, providing remedies for numerous physical conditions. However, aside from their conventional medicinal roles, flora—especially blooms—possess remarkable energetic qualities that can significantly influence our overall wellness.

As someone who firmly believes in the curative attributes of plants, I have witnessed firsthand the harmonious alliance between our bodies, minds, and spirits with Mother Nature.

Particularly, flowers, with their exquisite charm, fragrant essential oils, and delicate vibrational energies, harbor substantial healing capabilities.

It’s no accident that blooms feature prominently in various cultural practices to express empathy and compassion, offering solace and enhancing wellness. This goes beyond their aesthetic appeal; they truly encompass profound healing abilities.

Across diverse cultures, flowers are employed to demonstrate sympathy and encouragement. For instance, sending a bouquet of “get well soon” flowers to someone recuperating from illness or surgery is quite common. Variants like lilies and daisies are often favored for their connotations of purity and joy, assisting in uplifting the spirits of the recipient and promoting emotional recovery.

In Japan, the tradition of gifting flowers, known as hanakotoba (the language of flowers), is deeply woven into cultural practices. Each flower carries a distinct meaning, conveying sentiments such as sympathy, honor, or congratulations. Chrysanthemums symbolize longevity and are frequently given to the sick or elderly to express wishes for good health and extended life. The careful selection of flowers is thought to bring emotional comfort and healing.

In India, blooms hold significant importance in both everyday life and spiritual customs. Marigolds are commonly used in religious ceremonies and celebrations to signify good fortune and uplifting energy. During times of grief or illness, marigolds and other flowers are offered at temples or placed throughout homes to provide comfort and spiritual support. They’re believed to possess purifying and healing properties, aiding in alleviating emotional distress and fostering recovery.

Within Chinese traditions, flowers like peonies and orchids are linked to health, prosperity, and joy. In moments of illness or hardship, these flowers are gifted as gestures of encouragement and sincere well-wishes. The art of flower arrangement, also known as ikebana, is embraced as a meditative and healing practice.

Incorporating Flowers in Chakra Healing

Flowers can effectively activate and harmonize the energy centers in our bodies, known as chakras.

The chakras represent crucial subtle energy points within our auric field, each corresponding to various physical, emotional, and spiritual facets of our existence. A balanced chakras system allows life energy to flow freely through us, enhancing health and vigor.

Conversely, an imbalance or stagnation in the chakras can result in emotional struggles, physical manifestations, spiritual disconnect, or an overall feeling of dissatisfaction.

I discover that flowers, with their distinct vibrational frequencies and healing attributes, serve as valuable tools for reestablishing balance within our chakras while acting as catalysts for energy healing and wellness. Integrating these natural healers into your daily life can result in profound changes.

Whether you’re well-versed in chakra healing or new to the idea, the insights provided here will illuminate the extraordinary ways flowers can enhance your path to improved health, harmony, and spiritual fulfillment.

There are numerous techniques to utilize flowers for chakra activation, balancing, and healing:

Essential Oils: The fragrant qualities of floral essential oils, like rose or lavender, can invigorate the chakras when applied to pulse points or diffused in the atmosphere. Each oil resonates at a frequency that aligns with specific chakras.

Essences: These liquid floral extracts carry the plant’s vibrational energy. Flower essences may be consumed, applied externally, or added to bath water to promote balance in targeted chakras.

Elixirs, Tinctures & Teas: Just like flower essences, elixirs and tinctures can be ingested to aid chakra activation and equilibrium. Each mixture is crafted to align with specific energy centers, restoring harmony and fostering overall wellness. Herbal teas infused with energetically compatible flowers can be enjoyed as a gentle, nurturing method to support internal chakra healing.

Meditations: Utilizing flowers in meditation can channel focus towards particular chakras. Holding or visualizing a flower during concentration on the respective chakra can activate and harmonize that energy center.

Crystal Grids: Organizing flowers alongside healing crystals in a geometric formation around the body can amplify their energetic influence on the chakras. This grid generates a strong synergy between floral elements and stones for chakra healing.

Bathing: Immersing in a bath infused with fresh flowers or petals provides a nurturing method for absorbing their healing energies. Different blooms align with specific chakras, so choosing the right mixture can promote chakra balance.

Smudging & Incense: Burning dried flowers like lavender or rose petals as incense can dispel stagnant energy from the chakras. The smoke from these sacred botanicals cleanses the aura and restores equilibrium to the energy centers.

Jewelry & Clothing: Decorating yourself with floral motifs, whether through jewelry, attire, or floral designs, can help align and activate your chakras throughout the day.

It’s crucial to select flowers that resonate with each chakra. Distinct blooms possess unique energy signatures, corresponding to specific chakras. Just as the vibrational frequencies of various colors, sounds, and crystals connect with particular energy centers, so do certain flowers.

By engaging with the appropriate flowers, we can access their metaphysical qualities to activate, balance, and heal our chakras, encouraging overall health and wellness. Here are some guidelines and concepts to achieve this:

Root Chakra (Muladhara)

The root chakra, situated at the base of the spine, acts as your energetic link to the earth. When this chakra is in balance, it nurtures a sense of stability, security, and grounding. However, an imbalanced root chakra may leave you feeling stagnant, disconnected, or preoccupied with unproductive matters.

To activate and harmonize this chakra, red blooms like roses or carnations are potent allies. Surround yourself with these flowers or utilize essential oils from grounding plants such as patchouli and vetiver.

Flower essences from stinging nettle, blackberry, or garlic flowers can further support this chakra, helping you reconnect with your life force. A flower bath infused with red petals or a crystal flower grid featuring red stones like garnet can offer additional grounding energy.

Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana)

Located between the navel and the pubic bone, the sacral chakra governs creativity, pleasure, and emotional equilibrium. An imbalance in this energy center may leave you feeling unsatisfied, disconnected, or emotionally obstructed.

Orange blossoms such as marigolds, orange tulips, or tiger lilies can help restore harmony to this chakra. Place them in your environment or add their petals to a warm bath to enhance emotional energy flow.

A sacral chakra meditation utilizing a flower essence like Cerato can unlock creative potential and reignite motivation. For additional healing, burn dried marigold flowers or incorporate their essential oils into your self-care rituals.

Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura)

Manipura is the center of willpower, identity, and self-assurance. An underactive solar plexus may result in low self-esteem or lack of initiative, while an overactive solar plexus might cause stubbornness and irritability.

Yellow flowers such as daffodils, dandelions, or sunflowers can help to modulate this chakra’s energy. Keeping these blooms visible can remind you of your inner strength, or you may meditate with them to regain your sense of purpose.

A flower essence like Larch can offer additional support by fostering self-belief and resolve. Wearing yellow attire or carrying yellow petals can further stimulate this chakra’s energy.

Heart Chakra (Anahata)

The heart chakra governs love, compassion, and connections. When this chakra is out of alignment, it may lead to feelings of jealousy or emotional detachment. A balanced heart chakra enables you to give and receive love without restraint.

Green and pink flowers like roses, orchids, or carnations are particularly beneficial for this chakra. Form a flower grid using these blooms or diffuse their essential oils to invite love and harmony into your life. Flower essences like wild rose or willow herb can assist in releasing emotional burdens and enhancing your capacity to nurture others.

Throat Chakra (Vishuddha)

The throat chakra serves as the center for communication and self-expression. Blockages in this chakra may make it challenging to articulate your truth or feel unheard.

To harmonize this chakra, work with blue flowers such as forget-me-nots, bluebells, or cornflowers. Keeping them around your workspace encourages clear communication, or wearing a necklace featuring a blue flower pendant can activate self-expression energy. Applying German chamomile flower essence and lavender oil to the throat can alleviate obstructions and foster honest dialogue.

Third Eye Chakra (Ajna)

The third eye chakra, located between the eyebrows, represents intuition, insight, and perception. A well-balanced third eye opens doors to heightened awareness and psychic abilities.

Indigo flowers such as violets, sweet peas, and lilac can amplify the energy of this chakra. Engage them in meditation or position them on your altar to invite intuitive clarity. Flower remedies like clary sage or rosemary assist with enhancing perception and sharpening mental focus. You can even burn violet-scented incense to deepen meditation and promote intuitive flow.

Crown Chakra (Sahasrara)

The crown chakra, located at the top of the head, links you to higher consciousness and divine energy. A balanced crown chakra supports spiritual enlightenment, whereas an imbalanced crown chakra can cultivate closed-mindedness or feelings of disconnection.

White and violet blooms like jasmine, white lilies, or lavender can aid in balancing this chakra. Position these flowers in sacred areas or wear a crown of fresh jasmine during meditation to enhance spiritual awareness. Flower essences like lavender or frankincense assist in connecting with your higher self, encouraging profound spiritual transformation and clarity.

Visualized Meditation for Chakra Balancing

Visualizing flowers during chakra healing meditations is extraordinarily potent, as it aligns with the ancient symbolism of the lotus in spiritual teachings and traditions concerning chakras.

The concepts of chakras and lotus primarily originate from Hinduism and Tantric Buddhism. Both traditions perceive the lotus as a metaphor for spiritual development, flourishing beautifully despite muddy waters, symbolizing the capacity to transcend worldly challenges and attain spiritual wisdom.

In Hinduism, chakras are detailed in ancient spiritual texts known as the Vedas and Upanishads, depicted as energy centers along the spine. Each chakra corresponds with a lotus depicting a specified number of petals, representing various levels of consciousness and spiritual energy. The lotus is a potent insignia in Hindu culture, often linked to purity, regeneration, and spiritual enlightenment.

In Tantric Buddhism, the chakras and lotus symbolism also take center stage in practices aimed at spiritual awakening and realizing one’s true nature. The concept of the “vajra body,” consisting of energy channels and chakras, is integral to Tantric teachings, where the lotus symbolizes the unfolding journey towards enlightenment.

By visualizing flowers aligned with each chakra during healing meditation, you tap into the rich symbolism and esoteric knowledge of this tradition, strengthening the connection between your energy centers and spiritual advancement, much like the blossoming of a lotus.

Here is a visualized meditation that utilizes the vibrant essence of flowers for chakra balancing and alignment, aiding you in cultivating a state of inner tranquility, balance, and holistic wellness.
