I only had a slight interest in it when I was younger and a boy I had a crush on tried to get me to take home his satanic bible from school but nope. I didn't want anything to do with that. I was mostly interested in things like astral projection, esp, psychic phenomenon, and palm reading.

I'm interested in the same things..always was. I do believe there is a very dark 'spiritual' element also..as counterpart to what I call the white or pure side. Whenever I did a reading for anyone..I always prayed first..I still use sage to cleanse my surroundings. I've never managed to astral project..but I think I'm 'overthinking' it.

Astral projection is tricky because, for me, I had read about it in a book that I checked out at the library and when I did what the book said nothing happened. Then one night when I wasn't expecting it, it happened. I couldn't have been asleep but a few minutes according to the clock. I fell asleep and then awoke unable to move. I got up out of my body and slid down the side of the bed like a snake. My soul went straight to my parent's room like gliding just above the floor. I tried to yell, "Mama!" and then I heard my own mumbling voice back in my bedroom. It was by far one of the weirdest things that has ever happened to me. I feel like astral projection could possibly be very close to sleep paralysis with lucid dreaming. Our house here was blessed by our preacher when we first moved in. I think astral projection would be something very hard to control with any amount of precision. When I went back to my body, I felt an energy creep up into me from my feet upward. And then I felt like I was vibrating. Terrifying for me.

...and today I was sing the song Hanging Tree on my way to the car. Got in and it was playing on the radio. I took this to mean that I'm back in harmony with the universe, maybe, Hopefully things will quit breaking around here.

I had that happen once Harmony..in such a huge way that it left me with absolutely no doubts as to the power of the universe and the spiritual side of it. Have to be very receptive to catch it though. I kept hearing a song in my head..like you..it was 'don't worry..be happy' which is a cool song. Then it stopped and was replaced by these numbers over and over until I was half crazy with it..finally it dawned..it's a phone number with our area code. So of course I dialed it. No one was home so the answering machine picked up playing a song. Don't worry...be happy. Since then I've had tons of little tweaks but nothing that can come close to that. I had been facing some really difficult things in my life at the time. Cool universe isn't it

That's amazing! I'm not psychic at all anymore taking these meds. They change brain chemistry and thank God they do. AT least for me....Yes, I kinda like knowing the universe might be on my side. It is astonishing the things that go on. No telling what all is really happening that no one ever knows about.

So, I was thinking of going to see my friend today. She recently suffered a breakup when her husband left her and her son. I decided to get a McChicken first while I decided whether to go see her or not. (She volunteers at an office once a week on Mon. in my little town.) McDonalds had put 2 McChickens in my bag and I told them I only ordered 1 and they said to keep it. I decided it was for her so we had lunch together. I believe everything happens for a reason. It was good to see her and she was glad to see a friend.

Perhaps the Mcdonalds people were psychic and knew you needed an extra mcchicken...either that or they just can't count.

Yes! Auntym and jokelly, that's exactly how I felt! I got there and she started tearing up and telling me how her 15 year old son had ran away last Thursday. He was gone for 17 hours and was at her ex-mother-in-law's and she never even bothered to call and tell her. Yes, she needed a friend. She's a sweet person but I hate to see anyone suffer. Them giving me that extra McChicken made my decision to go see her. Today, I took my daughter by Subway after school and their server was down and the girl says to me, "go ahead and take it. you're a familiar face. You can pay us next time". Unbelievable!!! I feel like being honest about my condition instead of trying to hide it and praying for other people has brought me inline with the universe or something. It's amazing...I don't know what I've done right but it was something.

casper, I think my grandpa's house was haunted but as far as our house went, my parents had it built. I had a weird epiphany that night and it was almost like I was seeing my younger self or something, Strange stuff. The house we live in now may be haunted. I haven't seen anything but I have heard stuff. One day our piano hit a note while I was on the phone and we have double doors with glass that were shut. Another time, I heard something VERY big fall and could never figure out what it was. We also have heard footsteps walking around at night but not in a long time. A little boy drowned in the small pond down behind our house. What's going on now is things breaking. We had a water pipe leaking over our garage just out of the blue, not frozen or anything and now our water pressure is up and down. They're gonna fix that this weekend. Have you seen any ghosts? I've seen lots of ghosts! I saw one coming through my wall above my bed when I was a little boy and it scared me at first until my mom told me it was probabky just Casper the friendly ghost looking for a friend. I've loved ghosts ever since. Last year I saw an old man ghost coming out of an old haunted house out in the woods. That was sooooo cool!! I've stopped back by there a bunch of times but the ghost hasn't came back yet. Maybe someday he will and when he does I'm gonna be ready for him. Your house sure sounds like it's haunted. Noises and stuff breaking are ghost sounds for sure. You should try taking some pictures with a camera and see if any ghosts show up on it.

The trick to seeing more ghosts is in you..not them. It's when you are resonating at a frequency closer to theirs that they can be seen. Maybe it's when you are feeling very at ease or very at peace..it's different for everyone. Keep trying

I feel like being honest about my condition instead of trying to hide it and praying for other people has brought me inline with the universe or something. It's amazing...I don't know what I've done right but it was something. I have found, that talking about things, and facing things head on- even if it is much later than I should have-IS the right thing to do. And, sometimes the "Person" I am speaking out-loud to, is quite invisible but otherwise detectable . Very cool that everyone has speaker phones in their cars these days! Because that's where I tend to do my most emotional talking, and now I don't look like such a mental case! LOL. Praying for others is always good. I still struggle with praying for myself . . . but that is good too. In the past, my prayers for myself were limited to parking spaces! I always thought, talking about problems was more than just an "acknowledgement". It was exposing my vulnerability. Probably because I was talking to the "wrong people". LOL. Even today, before I talk about anything personal out-loud, even in the privacy of my car, I ask for the blood of Jesus to protect my words . That's awesome you could help a friend by simply showing up!

I think everyone gets 'messages' or prompts like that but they often go ignored. I know a lot of people who would have stuck the extra in the fridge for later instead of looking to see who might be the intended target I always figure when I'm praying for others..I'm praying for me too because their happiness or health or well being IS what I want the most. On my life..I figure God's got the lead. Sometimes when I'm being very whiney..feeling very sorry for myself I fall into the 'please give me a sign' thing. They always do. I should have such tolerance.

I went with my gut and it just felt right.Also, I feel like the Universe can be out of balance sometimes for people. Everyone's journey is different and that was a day in my journey.

That's awesome you could help a friend by simply showing up! Me too, J ... I have a deep belief that Jesus and God are a real presence in everyday life. Don't be afraid to pray for yourself if you need God's help. He'll be there if you call and sometimes he knows your needs even before you do. I can't go to sleep without praying for protection because evil frightens me. He hasn't ever let me down...

Very Sweet . Thanks! I also ~ tentatively ~ believe like Jo, about praying for others is praying for self. There's only been (2) distinct times in my life that I'm positive that my Heavenly Father talked to me in an actual voice I heard, you know, like a conversation out loud between two people? First time, I was drowning in a swimming pool, and He told me "Try One More Time" Second, I was alone in a bedroom praying for a friend who was having symptoms of MS (she had it 8 yrs. prior also, and symptoms went away). He said "And You'll Be Ok Too". I was like, huh? What? My friend took that timely reply, intended obviously for both of us, and life's never been the same . ! Otherwise, Yes, He knows all, even before I ask, so why bother talking about myself?? I talk about myself plenty on here. LOL. ________________________________________________________________________________ I am one of those people that appreciate "signs". I say it that way, because I've also heard it discouraged (looking for signs). I can understand (often!) how subjects like these, and possibly tying it into religion issues, really turns people off. But the person that discouraged me, was part of my "church family" as I was growing up. Now I would have the courage to point out what Jesus said about it, in a book we were supposed to be very familiar with! This one's pretty deep: Pharisees and Sadducees Seek a Sign 1The Pharisees and Sadducees came up, and testing Jesus, they asked Him to show them a sign from heaven. 2But He replied to them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.' 3"And in the morning, 'There will be a storm today, for the sky is red and threatening.' Do you know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but cannot discern the signs of the times?… Cross References Luke 12:54 He said to the crowd: "When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, 'It's going to rain,' and it does. Matthew 16:3 and in the morning, 'Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. from biblehub.com/matthew/16-2.htm

and The Great Commission …16"He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. 17"These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; 18they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." Cross References Mark 9:38 "Teacher," said John, "we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us." Luke 10:17 The seventy-two returned with joy and said, "Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name." Acts 2:4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. from biblehub.com/mark/16-17.htm____________________________________________________ and 1 Thessalonians 5:3 - For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 1 Thessalonians 4:17 - Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 12:12 - Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds. Acts 14:3 - Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands. Mark 13:22 - For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if [it were] possible, even the elect. from www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Bible-Verses-About-Signs-and-Wonders/____________________________________________________ Yeah, this is a very deep subject! So why would I ignore the "simple signs" that are "tailored" for me to notice personally? And yeah, I think every one has these things happen in their life. Whether a person thinks its a personal god, or the universe, or just a co-inky dink, eventually, if it happens enough, on your personal wave-length, it's harder and harder to ignore. Are these "signs" often considered helpful ? I can't really apologize for how easy this stuff is to find on the web, and I chose to use the bible. The q'ran talks about it, also. And if I just put in the words "signs as predictions" how many other quotes will I find from people all across history?? ___________________________________________________ I can't help but wonder though; if a lot of people have "the same kind of signs" , is this why people once believed so much in superstition? I mean, really? How did it then evolve into some people deciding that some of these signs were signs for evil people? Because they (the people who felt that they received some sign) then hurt someone else, or hurt themselves, because of the "sign"? ____________________________________________________ I wax long, but this subject does belong here, because of the documented "supernatural" of our history, including our "holy books". Especially in our scientific and materialistic society these days, isn't it better just to ignore any so-called sign? If I continue to "watch for signs" like even the Farmer's almanac that is fun to use nature to predict what kind of winter it will be, does that make me fall in with "those kind of people"? LOL. Let me leave here with ! Kings chapter 18. The verse is about many things, but people look beyond the emergency of a drought. And it ends with E. racing on foot against Ahab and his chariot. " And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not. 45 And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel. 46 And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel." No mention of a ufo here. But if E. can outrun a chariot, he must be an extra-terrestrial ! LOL. There are places today that have foot races against horses, and one site claims that a runner has won twice!

I appreciate how much thought and consideration you have put into this. I just think if people would feel their way around this world and learn to follow their gut and instinct, it would be a better, more peaceful place. Unless their deranged or something. Children do not come into this world being full of hate for anything. They come here innocent and pure and they eventually become a product of their environment. Which I'm sure was the same way in Biblical times. Lots of odd even alien things happened in the bible and we've all been over this multiple times. What? With Ezekial's wheel and all of that. Enjoy the above posted song

This is..as given to me to understand. Take from it what you will or won't. Our souls..exist eternally. We are one with..a part of the universe..a part of a greater whole with individual not hive mentality. We bring with us..where ever we go..the sum total of our experiences of our existence. Our knowledge..our emotions our 'feelings'.. We can opt to 'incarnate' to gather more knowledge and experience. To live something we are curious about or something we feel will enrich us in some way. The experience would most likely NOT be something we would even want to experience when we're in 'life'. I wouldn't choose to be a serial killer or an executioner or a nun..but the soul of me might figure this is something to understand..to process..to make itself in some way complete. Once the decision is made to incarnate..the choices are made. Which parents to help us become what the soul is looking for. The abusive parents to drive a brain wonkers..or the kind loving parents to create perhaps a prodigy. We've probably been them all. A choice of religion or not..of income class of education etc. The line is established and there truly is a non interference rule. Angels or spirit guides and the greater source do offer 'messages' and signs and encouragement along the way. If..we see them..if we're able to. A life most spiritual...a life devoid of the spiritual. A life of science..a life of the abstract. Of seeing what others can't. Can't stray very far from it..and believe me..so often this 'me' is hollering out..wait..I made a mistake..too hard..not what I really wanted. But..in my heart I know my life was my own choice. I'm still trying to figure out the objective. Because I forever sit on the fence seeing both sides? Feeling the pain for the suicide bombers as well as their targets? Not so cool. Rather not thank you. Because I felt what a baby girl felt tossed into the night to meet a watery cold death? Because sometimes I can see a long time ago or what people have been in lifetimes? Well..like I said...it was given to me to understand..or try to.

Well..like I said...it was given to me to understand..or try to. That's very interesting, Jo, your point of view. Maybe you are an "old soul", I do not think I am. As far as I know, I can only remember two times that I could've been having previous life experiences. I've written of one of them here,,, a war and me with two babies. You probably remember. The other time, I remember I was around 5 years old and I inhaled water.. I went off to sleep. Could've been in the womb though I'm not really sure. You can understand how I could be unsure but I vividly remember that. I feel like sometimes we are being tested and our reality changes based on how we handled it. I dunno, so many ifs. I hope one day to fully realize all the answers so many of us are always asking.

I know one day we'll know all of the answers...and I know we've known them before. Supposedly..the older the soul the more 'leaks' through from past lives..like your memories of a war and inhaling water. I'm terrified of being burned alive and being drowned. I know I've experienced both before.

hey! I also wanted to bring up something that you mentioned recently, and it was along the lines of maybe a medication you now take, disrupts some of your natural psy abilities?
How long before you noticed the difference?
I've noticed this about myself, also. Like, my "dreams" were more fluid . . .even made more sense before I tried a med for ADD?ADHD?
