Ghosts are Real Copyright Mellissa Laurie Seaman 2003 All Rights ReservedGhosts are real. And we can all feel them. Halloween approaches. Samhain. The Day of the Dead. Do you feel the veil between living and dead thinning? Do you sense the movements out of the corners of your eye? Do you feel a thrilling dread in the cold chill of the night before the dawn, when only a slim membrane separates the worlds of spirit and substance? Do you feel movement in the air even when you are alone in your bed at night? Do you talk aloud to your dead loved ones, and hear them answer back? You are sensing the current shift into the season of Dead, the slow approach of winter, and the opening of the dark earth which reveals the spirits who are wandering here with us, trapped where they do not belong. Are you afraid of ghosts? Well cut it out. They have no power over you. You’re the one in the body. You’re the one with business here on earth. Ghosts are mostly lost souls who are not supposed to be here. They missed the bus to pass over, and now they’re just wandering around, sucking energy from you and everything in this world in order to survive where they don’t belong. They are parasitic. They must draw energy from the living and the material world in order to feel comfortable sticking around on this earth plane. Most ghosts wandering around today are simply lost tourists. Shortly after death, they were given the chance to pass over, into the Light, through the Tunnel (you know the story) but they didn’t go. Why? Well, the earth is a sticky place. It’s hard to let go of all those delicious vices and desires even for the pleasure of all-encompassing peace and serenity. A person who is too connected to the things and people here on earth has a tough time letting go to pass over. A person who is filled with rage, revenge, hurt, anger, or even adoring love also can have a tough time releasing these passions to move into peace and oneness. Gosh darn stubborn humans. You’ve got Free Choice. So no one’s going to make you pass over if you don’t choose it, even after you die. You run your own show. Are you a ghost-enabler? Do you think it’s fun or sexy or cute to have ghosts around? Do so at your own risk. “Ghosts have just as much right to be here as I do,” you say. “They aren’t hurting me, so why should I tell them to leave?” From an energetic standpoint, that’s not true. Ghosts draw energy from people and things. That’s why a car or a house that is haunted is harder to maintain, breaks more, and generally has an icky feeling. People can be haunted too. When a person is haunted, they often intuitively feel they are never alone. They sometimes “know” that someone is following them. They often have energy-draining health problems that are difficult for the medical profession to diagnose. Hello…Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? So what do ghosts want from us? Energy. Power. Human experience. Opportunities to reminisce through our experiences of life. A ghost who was a big drinker during life is often drawn to a living drinker. Heavy drinkers are easy to suck energy from, anyway, because drinking blurs boundaries, physical and energetic, making them easy targets with no real defense systems. Plus, that ghost misses the energy of being in a drunken state. He can a contact-high from sucking energy off of a drunk person. “Mmmmm, beer.” We each transmit our own unique energy frequency. If I’m a co-dependent needy girl, I transmit a big energetic wave, all the time, that says (imagine the carnival barker voice) “Co-dependent needy girl he-eer! Get’cher needy girl! Step right up!” And guess who comes running! Co-dependent men, victimizing experiences, and ghosts who miss that co-dependent energy. Yup. In this way, we really do ask for our life experiences. And we also ask to be haunted. We draw ghosts that feed into whatever stuff we’ve got going on. They attach themselves to our energetic bodies, and suck our vital force right out of us. We end up getting more colds, feeling more tired, and sometimes even experiencing the ghost’s addictions/needs/emotions, depending on the depth of the haunting. I don’t recommend talking to ghosts – not because it’s dangerous – just because they rarely have anything useful to say. Your standard earth-bound spirit is extremely confused. Heck, they think they’re still alive. They are often emotionally overwrought, and they rarely have a real grasp on what’s happening on the earth plane. Don’t take their advice. Don’t dial them up on a Ouigi Board. In fact, don’t dial ANYTHING up on a Ouigi board. That’s like blind dialing an International phone call. You don’t know who you’re talking to, and you don’t know what the costs are going to be. If you really really wanna do a séance bit, PLEASE, set your Intention. Intention is the most powerful tool you have. State what you want, and what you don’t want. Like, say out loud “I Intend to talk to a spirit who can give me helpful information in my Highest Good” and then you’ll get something that is fun, entertaining, and for your own good. But I really stand by my advice to not go chatting with earth-bound ghosts. They are boring anyway. If you want to really have some enlightening times, try calling up your Spirit Guides, Jesus, Buddha, your favorite goddess, or an ascended ancestor (a spirit who DID pass over and can now come back to advise & chat). Now THAT’s some worthwhile conversation. What about those really mean nasty ghosts like in Poltergeist? Yes there are some of those. But not many. And even these have no real power to hurt you if you are strong in your own Self. Yeah, that’s the kicker. You have to be strong in your Self. But hey, if you’re not, you’re going to attract living people that are at least as scary as the skeletons at the bottom of the pool in Poltergeist. And regardless of how malevolent a being you might come across, no thing, no being, no one at all has more power than you do at a base level. We’re all part of the same batch o’ God, in my book. A little skill can be helpful, of course, and if you really did come in contact with a nasty ghosty, you’d probably want to enlist a little help from someone like me who is a natural ghostbuster with tools for the job, experience with their tricks, and confidence to kick their asses. *********************** Mellissa Seaman is a co-founder of San Diego Circle and founder of Heart Wisdom.
