From one Spiritualist 2 Another- What is this??

Hi there my gifted friends

I been having an experience which is both foreign & frustrating to me, as I can't work out what the hell is going on.

It occurs at least 3 times a week!
Just as I fall asleep I start to float out of my body (I'm aware of astral travelling but i'm still very lucid when this is occurring)
I can see my body & its dark, and there's always a dark male figure standing near me. I try and get myself to wake up ,but it often takes alot of effort. Most of the time, I start to spin in a clockwise motion & I hear this male figure laughing.

Its quite scary, and although I'm quite a switched on little spiritualist, this experience freaks me out! :leaving:

I would LOVE to know what is happening to me, and how I can regain a little more control of this situation, so I call on my fellow spiritualists to lend a hand.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

LOVE & LIGHT to you

Ummm weird...... I am not really sure as I am probally not as aware as you. It could be you travling into a darker plane of reality that you don't totally know or understand. I really couldn't say as I am only part aware as a spriutalist.

 

I've had simular experiences. and i'm curious who and why they came to me. I got to get around to see someone who can comunicate with spirits.

I presume someone who's more communicative would have some answers... but answers always makes more questions aswell

 

I can communicate ok, but Im not receiving answers on this particular issue, so its onward with my journey of discovery. Its nice to know i'm not the only one getting freaked out by things of the nite! The spinning sensation is kinda cool though, I feel like i'm on a merry go round as i float. hmmmm maybe I should stop the chocolate before bedtime.

 

I usually need to drink something alcoholic to get that spinning sensation--and you get it without drinking at all??? I need lessons so I can lower my alcohol expenses!

I tried tuning to your spinning and your dark male comedian. The first thing that struck me is that there is a lot of context missing from your story. You're a spiritualist--I take it you're an active one. So you ummm like, contact spirits, right? And then this dark joker starts paying you visits while you're sleeping...what kinds of things have you been messing with lately, Lexi? Your answer might provide some clues, mayhap.

I seem to be getting into the business of exorcising people's scary spirit visitors lately, for some reason...maybe I could have some fun with yours, as well.

 

hi there,

No dabbling on my behalf. I'm an active spiritualist, I'm also a young and learning spiritualist, but I am a lover of the light, and dont wish/want/try to attract anything dark to me. I dont know who this man is. I ask for confirmation but i receive nothing regarding this issue, maybe he's not dark and he's just standing IN the dark, i have no clue.

I've tried to control these little astral adventures but its quite difficult when you're in that trance like state.......Its been happening more frequently, there has been a death of two close family members this year, perhaps it has triggered something.
It happened also the night before on family member passed away. It doesn't always have the man in the shadows, sometimes its just the spinning sensation followed by the floating feeling.
If it is a not nice entity I would love it to stop hassling me.......
Any ideas kind zengizmo?

 

Your point about the guy possibly only being IN the dark is a good one...

You said you enjoy the spinning sensation--but something freaks you out. What, specifically?

Why do you want to control the experience? Have you ever tried relaxing and just seeing where it takes you?

If you're a person who has put an intention out to the universe to learn spiritualism, you may have attracted a teacher...

 

You know you may be spot on with the teacher thing, I've been in a great enduring transitional process for a few years, its very rewarding but I admit some of the internal layers that rise to the surface are painful and hard to deal with, i feel i've started the journey young for a reason, actually the journey found me.......and I wasn't even looking at the time.

I have always tried to go with the flow concernig spiritual matters, i'm not sure why this sensation makes me uneasy.....might try a little more meditation on the matter and see where that leads me.

How long have you been a spiritualist zengizmo? would love to know more!

 

I don't really consider myself a spiritualist, per se--but I dunno, lexi, what's your definition? I consider a spiritualist to be a person who communicates with dead folks and beings from the outer realms. I communicate with live folks--telepathically. But well, I suppose I would have to say that there probably isn't a whole lot of difference, and some contacts I've been having lately could very well be the disembodied kind.

But I've been interested in psychic/spiritual stuff since I was a kid. I spent my allowance on a subscription to Fate magazine when I was 11. By that time I'd had what I consider two bona fide psychic experiences. And this continued, on and off, until I got more serious about it--especially around eight years ago, at which point my entire life radically changed, and started revolving around the spirit world major big-time. If you'd like to learn some things about my journey, I wrote about a lot of things in Riesay's thread--the "long, complicated issue" thread.

Mara-aum's post is right on too, lexi. One of the things I've been delving into lately is a couple of people's scary spirit contacts. They scare me a bit too--until I consider the fact that these spirits reflect an aspect of my own being. Whatever we hate and fear is an aspect of ourselves that we have cut off--and cutting it off makes it work ten times as hard to come back to our conscious awareness--usually in very negative and even harmful ways. So in both cases, I have started out by contacting these people's "evil" spirits myself, accepted them as aspects of myself, made peace with them (more or less ), and then reported my experiences (more or less) to the the afflicted people. This tends to bring the scariness into the realm of the more ordinary and mundane, and reduces the awesomeness.

So maybe this bit of scariness is a new internal layer you get to deal with. It's certainly one I've been dealing with. I sense you're serious and committed to your spiritualist path. Best wishes with it.
