Hauntings...
What do we really mean by that?

We live in a world where there are many tragic and strange occurrence but how many of them do we really understand? How many times does someone get hit by a car... fall from a high place... in other words experience a very sudden death...?

How many things go unnoticed by us that affect us in our daily lives...?
The energy of the living have very profound effects on us. By that I mean those of us incarnate, in flesh and blood at the moment. We affect each others moods and our energy levels just as the energy of those on the other side.

Those spirits who have crossed over from the living but haven’t been able to move on to the next level.. or more accurately put, to be able to move into and through the light.

There are many reasons a spirit chooses to hover and continue to be more associated with us in the flesh than with their new surroundings in spirit realm on the other side.

Those reasons ranging from not really understanding that they have passed over into spirit, being fearful of any number of things to having unfinished business with those who remain here. Unfinished business is a broad statement is as many reasons spirits give for remaining. They sometimes have things they need to say, unfinished business dealings, apologies never shared or declarations of love. Some are just fearful of the unknown that lies ahead or are quite shocked and bewildered that they continue to exist when they had believed that there was nothing beyond the physical existence we know while we are here incarnate.
Occasionally there are spirits I have communicated with that feel angry that they continue to exist after death of the physical body. Those who really believed there was nothing more and were sure physical death would cease their existence completely, not just take them to another school of learning in the form of spirit.

This is sometimes associated with spirits who have committed suicide in an effort to make life end, to make the often difficult and painful circumstances they find themselves in come to an end. It takes those spirits a while to understand where they are, why they are their and to understand it us up to them to choose how to proceed on their journey.
We encounter the energy of disincarnate spirits in our daily lives, we are just not always aware of what forces are at work around us.
How many times do you see a house that no one lives in for very long? Where people can’t find happiness or contentment or peace? Where it just isn’t comfortable?

An area of land or a home can be affected for many different reasons. Whether a site is occupied by many or few either short or long term residents the energy of some is likely to remain.
The stronger energy is in an area the more serious effects on those of us in the living. The spirits residing in an area who are very angry or fearful are the easiest perceived.

There are times when personal items such as furniture and jewelry are still in the company of their former owners as well. A former owner who just might not be ready to let go of the item.
Have you ever added an antique to your home and found it had a life of its own? A jewelry box that played by itself or a chair that was uncomfortable to sit in for so apparent reason?
When we stop and ask ourselves why one home or building is more peaceful than another or why some items seem so alive what answer do we have?

The truth is there is much unseen energy all around us. There are many who remain earth bound who’s energy continues to effect us.
Some of this energy is easier than others to sense but it is all there. The energy of a spirit, ghost or disincarnate being what ever you would like to call it is usually remaining here on the earth plane because it has unfinished business of some kind.

The more aware we are of the energies around us the better we are able to assist that energy to move on to its next step on the path. It is the duty of all of us to assist each other both here on the physical plane and in the spirit form.

When we are aware of the spirits around us it is important to realize they are just like us only a bit lighter and thinner at the moment. (My guides have sensed I am having difficultly trying to bring this article to a close and are helping me they have a bit of a sense of humor at times).
“A helping hand is all any of us need and we all need it from time to time. Next time you feel someone or something around you ask for help from the angels if you are not capable of hearing and seeing (into the spirit world) yourself.

Ask that they (the spirits you are sensing) be assisted to let go of their
fears and to understand time waits for no one. To help them understand we all have second chances and time to make amends later when we all come back into spirit. (When your soul group that you have interacted with in the physical return to spirit as a group) and have a good laugh about our difficulties and our lack of perception from the physical side.
To gain understand about the importance of having a helping hand from spirit while we are here in the physical. And to also be aware of the difficulty of working between the layers of spirit/physical for those who perform that service while in the physical or in spirit.”

By that they refer to the challenges of raising our vibration from the physical and lowering the vibration from spirit so we can communicate. Like a radio station if you will to pick up FM you need to be on the right band width and to be somewhat close to the station also is a plus. There are many distractions in our physical world that makes mediumship or channeling what... all in all communicating with spirit a challenge. That however is a topic for another article!

Reach out with your awareness and touch into what surrounds you. It all affects us all from time to time so do what you can to offer a helping hand to those in the universe in need of a kind word and some direction.
