I have an intimate relationship with the spirit realm. I've experienced many ghosts first hand. Many! I've never seen one with my physical eyes, and I do not want to! I might faint or worse... I'm not laughing. A ghost is what we might become if our spirit after death becomes what is called Earthbound due to a sudden and unexpected death or plays itself back over and over again like a broken record, an imprint, trapped for some unknown reason. Then there are the intelligent hauntings... I've learned to develop my ability to receive messages from the dead. It really and truly works. Most of the dead cannot be seen as a ghostly apparition, but they are still there, quite unseen. It is extremely difficult for a spirit to materialize into what we perceive as an apparition or a ghost. It takes a lot of energy and the conditions must be just right to view a ghost. More often one can hear voices or laughter, unexplained tapping, audible phenomenon, or feel an unusual breeze or cold or hot spot or their touch upon our body, or smell a long lost fragrance. Usually something 'happens' within a matter of seconds and is over just as fast, giving one much time to doubt that what one saw or heard truly happened. I doubt each and every one of my own experiences, but just until reality sets in!
It could easily be described as nothing more than mental telepathy when the spirit world communicates with me. They put images, words or letters in my mind, or I smell odors, or feel their touch and the messages I get are usually for someone else. All spirits are not evil or demons in disguise like some choose to believe. Just like those alive today here on Earth, there is a mixture of good and bad within us all, and that is exactly what you find in the spirit world. They recognize a special light around a person who can communicate with them and they are deeply attracted to our light. Just like people, some are good communicators and some are not. There's lots of room for error and misinterpretation, I could give you many examples. This is not a perfect science, at least not yet! Amazing messages come through that are quite remarkable, especially to those receiving the messages from someone they care about very deeply, who are now in the spirit world. Each and every experience is unique, and so was mine in Australia!
My story is short and interesting, and if you really think about it, rather scary. My son and I were enjoying our trip to the Australian Outback in September 2006. The annual Aboriginal Art Festival was being held in Alice Springs while we were there. Various aboriginal tribe members came into town to the Art Center to display and sell their art one day only each year. We enjoyed viewing the art and artists and the Gallery full of paintings by some of the most famous Aboriginal painters, like Albert Namatjira. We bought a few pieces then decided to attend the indigenous dances outdoors, all of the audience sitting in a large circle around several fires burning. The native Aborigines were in their tribal dress, some half naked, chanting, singing and dancing around the fires. In many cultures, dancing, singing and chanting is done to raise the vibration of our spirit, raising it high enough so that communication with the spirit realm is possible. I was deeply enchanted by the dances, the smell of the smoke from the fires, and the very strange sound of their voices chanting and singing. My vibration was certainly raised! I didn't want to leave, I was disappointed, but we had to leave early, before it was over, to return to our hosts home to attend a party he was having in our honor.
Less than ten minutes later, we were driving down the street to Drury's house. As we approached his home, I saw something very unusual. There was a small fire burning right next to his driveway, between a sidewalk and the street. I pulled the car into the driveway, hurried into the house and asked Drury if he knew there was a fire by his driveway, and he looked at me strangely and said "no". We ran outside and put out the small fire before it became too large. There was no reason for a fire to be burning there right next to his driveway. When asked, he told us that had never happened before in all of the almost 40 years he had lived there!
Why would a fire be right next to the driveway where I couldn't possibly have missed it, just minutes after I left the ceremonial fire circle? Was it spirit or someone's 'way' of letting me know that they knew that I was there, so they had to show me that they were there as well, by starting the fire so that I would be sure to see it? Does my experience show premeditation by a spirit or ghost? Was my vibration so raised that they were showing me that they could communicate with me? Do fires start all by themselves at the end of Winter when the weather is still cool? Had some spirit or ghost felt my feelings of disappointment in having to leave the fire circle early and decided to bring the fire to me? Who was this trickster spirit I found in the Outback of Australia?
I've been told more than once that my highly analytical mind will never be able to figure out exactly how these things work, no matter how hard I try! I was there, this did happen to me, my son was a witness. Oh, but I forgot to tell you more than a couple facts about ghosts. One of the hallmarks of paranormal activity initiated by ghosts or spirits is that they are well known for moving things...
