✿ ♥✿ ✿ ♥✿ ✿♥ ✿ ♥✿GHOSTS AND SPIRITS...✿ ♥✿ ✿ ♥✿ ✿♥ ✿ ♥✿

Ghosts are the mental and emotional bodies of the deceased. (Another word for them is ‘astral entities’ – I use both words, as they mean the same thing.) They exist in the astrals, but have not fully crossed over to the astral realm and so a part of them is still on Earth. They are often found in hospitals, police stations, funeral parlours, cemeteries, bars, clubs, and hotels.
Ghosts can stay behind on the earth plane for a variety of reasons. For example, if a recently deceased soul believes they have done something wrong that they will be judged for, they may refuse to cross over. Or if a soul had an addiction when they were incarnated that they are not ready to release, they may also be reluctant to cross over. And when someone dies suddenly and unexpectedly and the person is too shocked and distressed to cross over and leave their life behind, they may choose to stay on the earth plane. Unfinished business can also cause a soul to keep a part of themselves in the earth plane, long after their life has ended.
(Important note: don’t confuse astral entities/ghosts with the popular term ‘negative entities’. Ghosts are not scary or even inherently negative – they were once incarnated people.)
Ghosts can occupy homes and can attach to peoples’ auras too. When they do this, they drain energy, which is one reason why it’s not a good idea to keep ghosts hanging around, no matter how much we like them!
One ghost will drain a very small amount of energy. But the more ghosts you have hanging around you, the more draining it becomes. The second reason why ghosts are to be avoided is because by nature they are very unstable and susceptible to negative emotions. When they attach to someone, they amplify and echo any pain and negative emotion in a person’s energy field. So if you feel angry and have one hundred ghosts in your energy field, that anger will be amplified. The same goes for any fear, pain or guilt. Those negative emotions can be reduced by removing any attaching entities that are present (although note that removing the astral entities might do nothing to remove the actual root cause of the negative emotion – astral entities simply echo negative emotion that is already there – they do not create it.)
Sensitive, EMPATHATICand intuitive people often notice ghosts. And ghosts notice sensitive people and are attracted to their auras because they are so open.
Your aura may be even more open if you practiseAUTOMATIC WRITING channelling or mediumship, and you are willing to channel whoever ‘comes through’. Ideally, you would want to be channelling your GUIDES IN SPIRITS or your HIGHER SELF – not just any old astral entity. For this reason, I recommend starting an automatic writing session by addressing your higher self or spirit guides. Because if you are willing to open up to whoever comes through, you may actually be channelling the emotional body of a ghost who was the neighbourhood alcoholic (as an example). That’s the earthly equivalent of marching up to an addict on the street and asking them for advice on your latest life issue. You might not get very helpful advice because it is coming from a place of stuckness and fear (remember that many ghosts won’t cross over because of fear, pain or occasionally even a desire for revenge.)

Spirits can and do come back and forth from the Other Side to visit and they will do so intermittently. They may choose a more emotionally removed person to appear to pass on messages. If your mother died and the two of you were very close, you may still be grieving for her years following her passing. She knows that appearing to you may impede your bereavement and this is something she wouldn’t do. Bereavement is a training process so to speak, and is something very personal that we all much face and learn how to deal with. So to let the family know that she’s okay, she may appear in a dream or even in person to someone more removed such as your spouse or a niece, or even one of your friends. Or they may not appear to anyone at all. You cannot force an issue such as this- Spirits choose if and when they will appear. And to be frank, Spirits have a lot of things to do where they are and they do get busy. More often than not, if they do visit us they tend to leave signs more than making appearances, especially when they’ve been gone for quite some time.
Spirits can manipulate many things in our physical environment to announce their presence, very much like ghosts can. Sometimes it may be hard to tell the difference. Spirits can affect anything electrical such as lighting, appliances, televisions, computers, and even phones!
Spirits can pick up and move physical items, and even bring you little presents.
Animals and very young children will see visiting Spirits because nobody has told them that they don’t exist. This is why babies look over your shoulder and giggle. Dogs and cats will sometimes run and play and talk to someone who you cannot see. These are people that they may have known and remembered. Even if they never met them while the person was alive, they know that this visitor is someone they can trust. Many if not most young children before the age of five will see Spirits and may tell you about it.
Even your beloved pets who have passed over hear you when you speak to them. Spirits hear everything, they watch everything, and they know everything. They know what’s in your heart and what you are thinking. Ghosts on the other hand are still earthbound, so ESP is not something they are blessed with. They may be able to manipulate the physical environment better than they used to, but they cannot read your mind. Only those who have passed over correctly gain all of this knowledge. Ghosts also have no boundaries and no understanding of when they have crossed the line. Spirits have infinite knowledge of this, and one of their main concerns is not to upset you. You may beg them to come and visit you, but they will know whether you are truly ready for this or not. And if you are not ready, they will not come regardless of whether you think you are.
There
are many different dimensional levels on the other plane of existence
besides the one we live in. On a level close to our own, you have a
Spirit Guide or Guardian Angel (if you prefer this description). A
Guardian Spirit can also fall under this category. Some of these spirits
have lived before- they may be a relative or someone with a special
interest in your life, or they may just be assigned to you for a change
approaching your life that they have superior knowledge of. Sometimes
you have made an agreement with them and chosen them to be your Guide.
A
Guide will never appear or do an activity that would make you
uncomfortable or frightened- they know you and they know what your mind
will accept and allow. They do not stand and stare at you or knock
dishes out of kitchen cupboards. There are also no severe abnormal cold
or hot spots from a Guide’s presence, although I have felt cool breezes
and smelled certain scents that announce their presence. They do not
show up on EMF detectors or any other equipment that which we would use
to detect Ghosts. They are not judgmental about our sexual preferences,
the color of our skin, or our personal religious convictions. They also
do not have the negative or positive fields of emotional energy carried
with them as a Ghost does. A Guide is only positive energy and never
negative, although we frustrate them and they can get annoyed and
exasperated by our behavior.
Some
Guides are only with you for a short while- others are with you
throughout your lifetime. They do seem to change positions and depending
on what the situation is, can and will leave you in the hands of
another Guide. You can have more than one Guide at one time, and most
people do, although there is always one that is your ‘main’ teacher and
supporter. Guides do have a hierarchy. Theologians have noted and
written about the hierarchy of Angels.
I In fact many of these Misguided Spirits, Ghosts & Angels, over time become more negative in nature, because they have lost their contact and influence from The Spirit World and their Spirit Guides. Spirits, Ghosts & Angels, have a free choice to do whatever they wish, just like us. They are Misguided because they would never have been judged in the Spirit World. Their actions and behaviours would have been acknowledged and accepted. However, they would know themselves and be made aware, that they had made some decisions or taken actions, that were not in the best interests of them selves and often others they hurt of mislead. They would be guided and helped to correct this in the next stage of their evolvement
One
of the biggest problems with Spirits, Ghosts & Angels, floating in
The Earth Realm is the lack of positive guidance. The longer they are
here the more they take on the more human emotions like, power, greed,
control and they soon like to exert influence in the material world by
giving suggestions or even giving spiritual orders to those who will
accept them. This does not mean that all Spirits, Ghosts & Angels
floating in the Earth Realm are negative in nature, many are positive
and continue to help people as they would in the Spirit World. This area
of Spirits, Ghosts & Angels, is one to be left alone unless you
have the ability to Heal, Remove and Release all Spirits, Ghosts &
Angels, type "Energy Forms" back to the Spirit World.
Spirits,
Ghosts & Angels that are highly evolved are very powerful because
they know many secrets of the Universe. If they become negative they use
this information to exert influence on anyone who will listen to them.
All Spirits, Ghosts & Angels that are asked a direct question cannot
lie with one exception the Angels. However they all can deceive and
they often do this by adopting a number of names in addition to their
Spiritual name that they are known by in the Spirit World. I have had
negative Angels tell me, they are Jesus Christ, who happens to be my
main Spirit Guide, and at times the only way to determine who is talking
to me is to ask if this "Energy Form" is an Angel. This answer comes
from my Aura Being who can identify any type of "Energy Form". Other
Spirits will not lie like this if asked a direct question however they
will take on names like God, Mohammed, Jesus, Lord or even Lord Jesus
trying to get me and others to believe
they are The Creator of all knowledge so they can lead me and others
astray. This deception and the fact that they block communication with
your Spirit Guide while in your Aura Field, make this area one to avoid
if possible. 

Some
of you with more evolved Souls may have had some disturbing experiences
where you feel you have been getting information from what seems to be
conflicting sources sometimes positive and sometimes negative. I have
know of cases where five or six Spirits, Ghosts & Angels have been
talking to a person for years, some were negative and some were positive
and this person was talking to their Spirit Guide. This would have
been OK if the Spirits, Ghosts & Angels had not adopted names that
this person identified with God The Creator of the Universe. Because of
this persons great faith, they rejected all the negative advances
however it is no wonder this person was confused and had mistrust. Many
antisocial acts, murders, crimes, wars etc that have been carried out in
the name of God, Mohammed, Jesus and other names we use for The God of
our Faith. These have been done by people who believed they were
carrying out the work of "The God" when it was
information from a negative Misguided Spirit, Ghost or Angel.
✿ ♥✿ ✿ ♥✿ ✿♥ ✿ ♥✿Ouija Board✿ ♥✿ ✿ ♥✿ ✿♥ ✿ ♥✿
A Ouija is a flat, wooden surface which
has letters from A to Z, numbers from 0 to 9 and a Sun and Moon symbol.
A movable indicator or a "planchette" is used to supposedly answer questions that its players ask. In popular culture these boards are considered to be a spiritual gateway
used to contact the dead; however, the only evidence for this is the
various accounts of users, which have not been scientifically proved.
The
Ouija Board is a device used to contact spirits. It consist of a flat
board with the letters of the alphabet and the numbers 0 through 9
printed on it. In the top left corner of the board the word YES is
printed, in the right corner the word NO. The other part to the game is
the spade shaped planchette. The planchette has three legs with small
pieces of felt on the bottom of each one and a round clear space called
the eye.
"It has
always been mysterious. It has always been mystifying. Sit opposite your
partner and rest your fingers lightly on the planchette. Now ask your
question. Concentrate very hard and watch as the answer is revealed in
the message window. Will it tell you YES or NO? Will it give you a
number or spell out the answer? Ask any question you want. Ouija will
answer. Its only a game ...isn't it?
Ouija boards have their roots in Spiritualism, which began in the
United States in the late 1840s. (Claims that ancient Ouija boards
existed are UNFOUNDED) The new movement was led by mediums, who claimed to be intermediaries between the living and the dead.There were a number of ways mediums made followers believe that they were communicating messages from those who had passed. One, table turning, involved the table moving or knocking on the floor in response to letters called out from the alphabet. Another method used planchettes, heart-shaped devices with two wheels at one end and a pencil at the point; users would place their fingers on the device, which would then be guided by spirits who would “write” messages.
Both methods were problematic. Table turning took too long, and planchette writing was hard to decipher. According to theMUSEUM OF TALKING BOARDS some mediums got rid of these methods altogether, preferring to channel while in a trance, while others built COMPLICATED TABLES N DIALS.and tables painted with letters that required people toUse a planchette as a pinter. This method became the most popular—and paved the way for the Ouija board.Ouija messages obviously come from forces beyond our control. You contact or "channel" these entities through the board. They are discarnate spirits, ghosts, or other ethereal beings who have a purpose for contacting the living. Many advocates of the Spiritualist Theory think that there is no harm in contacting the other realm because most spirits are basically benign and have important information to share. A few of these same advocates will perform elaborate cleansing rituals before using the board, just in case they run into a stinker. Other Spiritualist Theory supporters believe that no one should ever use the Ouija board. Malevolent forces can masquerade as good and cause emotional damage, even death to the user of the board. They offer as proof the many accounts of spirit possession reported by "experts" on the occult and demonology.
Ouija Boards were all the rage in the 1920s. They're still fun now!
Never use the Ouija Board when you are in an ill or weakened condition. This can lead to all kinds of trouble and makes the person more vulnerable to possession,
Since
there is no way of truly knowing if a spirit is good or evil it is
important to keep in mind that the spirits will often use false flattery
and lies to gain your confidence. Be careful.
-Always be respectful to the spirits.
-Sometimes
an evil spirit will permanently inhabit a board. When this happens no
other spirits will be able to communicate though that Ouija Board.
-Beware
... if the planchette begins to count down through the letter of the
alphabet or the numbers the spirit can escape form the board.
-If the planchette moves to the four corners of the board an evil spirit has been contacted.
The most important things to remember are to set up protections for
yourself prior to the session (you should also announce when starting
the session that no negative energies are welcome), and at the end of
your session, be sure you verbally announce to any spirits that may have
come through that they return to where they came from, and then after a
moment, set the pointer to "Goodbye" (or "farewell" or whatever version
of goodbye is on your board) to "close the door" behind them.
Otherwise you could trap some spirits here in the physical world, which
might upset them and they could cause problems in your home.
Never
use the Ouija in a graveyard or a place where a terrible death has
occurred. Playing in these places might cause terrible manifestations.
-Witch Boards are named such because witches once used them to summon demons.
-Avoid playing the Ouija Board alone. This increases your chances of becoming possessed by a spirit or demon.
-Ouija Boards that are not properly disposed of will return to haunt the owner.
If you Burn the Ouija Board it will scream.
-If you place a silver coin on the board,It is said that no evil spirits can come through.
-Never leave the planchette on the board when you are not using it.
-To properly dispose of the Ouija Board break it into seven pieces,pour holy water on it and bury it.
Maybe all this is just Ouija folklore passed down something like an urban legend but it's your choice to believe it or not...
-Ouija Boards that are not properly disposed of will rerurn to haunt the owner.
-If you Burn the Ouija Board it will sream.
-If you place a silver coin on the board,It is said that no evil spirits can come through.
-Never leave the planchette on the board when you are not using it.

Users subconsciously direct the path of the triangle to produce a word that is in that person's subconscious thought process. This subconscious behavior is known as ideomotor action, a term coined by William Carpenter in 1882. It is also known as automatism. Some people may be convinced the "powers" of the ouija board are real because they are unaware that they are in fact moving the piece and therefore assume that the piece must be moving due to some other "spiritual force". The subconscious thought process may produce an answer that is different from what the user expected in their conscious thought process—thus perpetuating the idea that the board has "mystical powers". Penn & Teller: Bullshit! episode on Ouija Boards, ran an experiment using unbiased participants. Questions were being asked to the late William Frawley with very strong answers. The participants were then blindfolded and the board was turned 180 degrees without their knowledge. With continued questioning, the planchette then traveled to bare areas of the board where the participants believed the "Yes" and "No" marks were located. The clinical term is "ideomotor response." You may not know that you are moving the message indicator, but you are. This is similar to automatic writing, also know as automatism, a well-understood phenomenon. Mediums in years past, would hold a pencil in one hand and pay no attention as it wrote furiously. Some believed that these written messages came from the spirits. Others felt that the messages came from a clever medium. At any rate, most proponents of the Automatism Theory generally accept that it is very possible to move the planchette unconsciously. They claim that the Ouija board opens a kind of shortcut from the conscious to the subconscious mind. Collective automatism occurs when more than one person is operating the board.

✿ ♥✿ ✿ ♥✿ ✿♥ ✿ ♥✿Occult.....Black magic and White magic✿ ♥✿ ✿ ♥✿ ✿♥ ✿ ♥✿
Most people are going to tell you that white magic is good, light, healing and that black magic
is destruction, death, darkness, evil, but it's really not that simple.
Magic isn't black and white. When you are crafting a spell, ritual, or
just channeling energy for purposes it doesn't have a color. Your magic is wrapped in your energy, your intentions.
For example, let's say you are trying to bind someone, which is something that shouldn't be messed around with, because this is attempting to control some of their free will and sway them in a certain direction. Binding isn't frequently encouraged or smiled upon because of those reasons, but let's say someone is doing serious damage and destruction to yourself or ones you love? Your intentions could be positive because you are trying to stop someone from harming themselves, you, your loved ones, or innocent people / etc in general.
When I think of magic I think of energy, intentions, not black and white, dark or light. Just because something is dark doesn't mean it's evil, the same goes for light. White magic is defined as magic that is used for good. White magic is most commonly thought of as healing magic, or spells and rituals that aid people. White magic, healing or "good", as opposed to Black magic see also Black magic paranormal. Real White Magic Spells that work can be used to protect, bless, heal, and help yourself or others. They can be used to bless or purify new ventures, clear and heal the mind and body, shield people and places from curses and hexes, turn back evil magic spells and incantations, reverse bad conditions, break jinxes, and allow good dreams and wishes to come true. Real White Magic Spells that work are all intended to be positive, uplifting, kind, beneficial, and gentle. White Magic Spells are designed to be defensive, helpful--never hurtful. The forms and components of black magic spells are different. They often reflect the focus, aims, or interests of those casting the spells, which is in stark contrast to the casting of white magic spells. The casting of black magic spells often incorporates symbolism of those things which could be interpreted as possibly hazardous or harmful to humans, such as sharp, pointed, caustic, and/or hot elements combined with personal objects from the spell's focus (a lock of hair, a drop or smear of blood, personal mementos, etc.). And while this distinction is primarily observable in folk magic, it can pertain to other forms of magic also.

Black Magic---Where black magic is used to harm people, white magic is sometimes defined by the intent behind it. According to some schools of thought, a spell or ritual can be either black or white--the difference is the intent with which it is conducted
Function of white magic-
White magic spells are often spells that will enhance beauty heal illnesses, increase luck, and alter the weather to create sunny days, protect a home or individual, banish evil and hold demons at bay.
Practitioners--Those who practice white magic often refer to themselves as priestess, priests, clerics, shamans and witches.
Features of white magic- White magic spells often contain an element that includes talismans or amulets in the casting.What is white magic and what makes it white? At the heart all magic is the same and has no color, however, it is common today to believe that different types of magic has different color.
Different colors in magic have been made common place due to their use in movies, television and video games. Typically colors like red or pink are love magic, green is for money and wealth, black is evil and white is good.
When people talk about white magic, then generally refer to healing and
helping magic spells. Keeping your spellbook color-coded, red for love
spells, green for money, black for death and white for healing is fairly
common but not required. An important thing to remember is that all
magic is magic, and there really is no such thing as evil magic or good
magic.
all magickal operation is identical. The energy used in
"Black Magic" is the exact same energy used in "White Magic". It is not
the kind of energy or the source of the energy used that separates one
form of magick from another, but rather, it is the intent (the
specified outcome) of the magick as programmed by the practitioner that
determines the black or white aspect of the magick. These five steps
include; desire, intent, alignment, ritual and expectation. Intent is
the steering wheel of the magickal operation. It is the the aspect of
the magickal operation that actually "programs" or dictates how the
expected outcome of the magick will come into manifestation, exactly
what the magick is to do, the manner in which it will be accomplished
(if required), and what is to transpire at the completion of the magick
(how the energy used in the magick will be dissipated at the conclusion
of the work).
So, lets look at the difference between "Black" and "White" magick. In this world, there are Two Great Laws of Interaction. These Two Great Laws constitute the basis by which we can easily discern "Black Magic" from "White Magick", and the corresponding creation of "karma" (the eternal negative consequences of our mortal behavior) when eternal laws are broken. The Two Great Laws state:
For example, let's say you are trying to bind someone, which is something that shouldn't be messed around with, because this is attempting to control some of their free will and sway them in a certain direction.

These Two Great Laws constitute the basis by which we can easily discern "Black Magic" from "White Magick", and the corresponding creation of "karma" (the eternal negative consequences of our mortal behavior) when eternal laws are broken. The Two Great Laws state:
1. You shall not
deliberately, maliciously, with forethought and intent, injure another
on any level or plane of mortal association - mentally, physically,
emotionally, or spiritually. This law also includes murder.
2. You shall not
deliberately, maliciously, with forethought and intent, deprive another
of their "free agency" (the right and ability to make decisions
relating to the path and destiny of one's life).
Although you may at times do things which inadvertently violate one of these laws, the lack of deliberation, malice, and intent negates the karmic aspect. In the case of inadvertent violations, this is called "experience". We are all here to experience life and its associated trials and difficulties, most of which we either bring upon ourselves or someone creates for us. That's just part of life, and necessary to our growth and evolution. Only when the specified conditions of deliberate, malicious intent with forethought stated in the Two Great Laws is violated have we crossed the line, and eternal consequences and retribution are mandated. There are, of course, always natural consequences to the decisions that we make.

There are, of course, always natural consequences to the decisions that we make.
That again is part of
our
mortal learning process, but natural consequences do not have eternal
ramifications. Natural consequences are contained within this mortal
experience and are here to teach us the lessons inherent in mortality.
When we pass beyond the bounds of this lifetime, we take the knowledge
and wisdom of our experiences with us, and hopefully, leave the highly
charged emotional aspects of the experience behind. It is, however,
this highly charged emotional aspect of the experience that imprints
the experience within our memory and makes it a lasting part of our
life.
Using the Two Great Laws as our guide, can we say that "White Magic" is any magickal operation that does not violate either of the Two Great Laws and that "Black Magic" is any magickal operation that does violate either of the Two Great Laws? Simply put, yes. However, let's look at this further.
In Central and South America, there are three broad categories of sorcerers. These three broad categories broken down into their individual components may make our study much easier. The first category is called "curandera" or "curandero", depending on the gender, and means "curer" (healer). This is an individual trained in healing and other magickal operations frequently referred to as "white magick". The second category is that of "bruja" or "brujo". This is someone known to practice the "black arts", or what is perceived as the negative use of magick. This sorcerer is usually widely known and feared. He/she specializes in death, disease and misfortune. In some areas of the world, and within certain cultures, this practice can be very widespread. The final category is that of "shaman". A shaman is essentially a bridge between the "currandera" and the "bruja". The shaman is equally versed in the white and black arts, and understands that the basis of all magickal operation is identical. It is the practitioner that determines the course and outcome of his/her work. The shaman knows that greatest source of available power for magickal operation resides in the dark side of human nature. Like the "bruja", the shaman has walked the deep, dark depths of his/her soul and has confronted his/her own demons. His/her reality has been systematically destroyed and rebuilt upon an entirely different foundation. The shaman knows that balance is the key to power and magick, and that balance requires that the shaman be able to walk equally as far into the darkness as into the light. The shaman, unlike the curandera or the bruja, is willing to cross the line between black and white, at will, without reservation or hesitation to keep the balance. Like the "Heyoka" of Oglala (what most non-Native Americans refer to as the Sioux Indians) tradition, the shaman is the sliding balance of power on the scale of Light and Dark.
Using the Two Great Laws as our guide, can we say that "White Magic" is any magickal operation that does not violate either of the Two Great Laws and that "Black Magic" is any magickal operation that does violate either of the Two Great Laws? Simply put, yes. However, let's look at this further.
In Central and South America, there are three broad categories of sorcerers. These three broad categories broken down into their individual components may make our study much easier. The first category is called "curandera" or "curandero", depending on the gender, and means "curer" (healer). This is an individual trained in healing and other magickal operations frequently referred to as "white magick". The second category is that of "bruja" or "brujo". This is someone known to practice the "black arts", or what is perceived as the negative use of magick. This sorcerer is usually widely known and feared. He/she specializes in death, disease and misfortune. In some areas of the world, and within certain cultures, this practice can be very widespread. The final category is that of "shaman".
