Help with the Spirit that I encountered last night!

[Spirits]

Ok... I had one of the scariest moments in my history of being "sensitive" to the spirit world last night. The DarkDay one being Number one and always will be.

Last night I was having a very hard time going to sleep. I got up and went downstairs and was standing in the Great Room, I have been getting strange vibes from this room for a while off and on, well I went to walk towards the fireplace and a very faint form showed up on the other side of the room, right in front of the fireplace. I did not move, I did not make a sound I just watched it, it seemed to be solidifying (if that is even a word to describe this) It seemed to be pulling energy away from everything. The room was just an errie stillness. I noticed that it was coming closer to me and I was not able to move. It then got angry... or at least that was the feeling I got, not like it screamed at me or anything (trying to LOL) and it ran full force towards me. As it got closer its form dispersed and was just this cloud of me having a lack of better descriptions, orbs. When it reached me, I couldn't breath. I litterally could not make myself breath. I was trying my hardest to call for my Dad, (who also has the family gift) Granted... he is in Alaska, but he was the first one that I thought of. I forced myself to turn from the forward position and take a step. Once my foot hit a different spot it was gone. I fell to the floor and was shaking so hard. I still have to take a deep breath when I think about it right now. I just lay there in a ball scared to move. All my being wanted me to go and check on Logan, but I couldn't. I was so filled with fear I really couldn't move. I did check on him after I came to my senses and he was fine, cuddled up in his blanket like normal. I just hope this is the last of that spirit. I don't know what to do if I see it again, turn and run most likely.

------------------------------------------------------

I also put this in my online journal, but wanted to make sure that people would read it and give ANY suggestions on what they think this is or how I can better prepare myself for next time.

Wow!

I know being in the situation and experiencing it and then thinking afterwards what you could've done or will do next time are two different things. I think anyone who was caught off guard like you were would probably react in the same way.

It's almost as if you caught it by surprise and it was angry that you were there and had seen it. I do have a few more questions that I am curious about. When it was forming did it have any distinguishing features? or was it blob like? How big was it? Did it have any colour/smell or other sensations to it other then what you described?

As for encountering it again, as scary as this might sound, would you be able to tell it in a commanding voice to leave and that it's not welcome? I think that is what I would try to do if you ever saw it again. If it's feeding off of energy in the environment you definitely don't want it feeding off of your fear as it might continue to be threatening or a nuisance for a long time to come.

I believe you use this already, but I would honestly try to use the white light technique whenever you feel this around you or even before you feel it around you. Perhaps use it when you are waking up in the morning and just before you go to sleep. Also if possible (I know you live with your parents) I would try and do a cleansing with sage. Try and get all that negative energy out of there.

I hope this helps a bit. Please keep us posted.

I saw shoulders and everything else was pretty much just in the places where parts should be. When I think back to it, it does seem like I surprised it. All I could smell was the fireplace....But the stillness in the room reminded me of the environment I felt months ago when I stepped out on our deck. My parents will be goning away in a few weeks and I will do a full cleansing then. Till then I hope all will be still in this house and that I have not disturbed something I am not ready to face alone. Maybe when my Dad is back I can get some input from his feelings. He pretty much ignores most of the negative. Maybe I will get him to give me some hints on how to do that. It is about time he teaches me something about these gifts.

I have had reports of similar encounters over the years from various people, many whom I consider quite credible.

I think it's difficult to characterize precisely what you saw and experienced, and even more so to know if you 'surprised it' or not. What's probably most important is that you now know that you should really not fear it for it seems to have not done you any harm - not that it likely would have in the first place. Most of the damage seems to have been pure fear, which you can now likely control.

As Angel said, take the power back and tell it to leave. Alternatively, don't react if you can pull this off. I have found this to be very interesting when I have done so. Things change quickly when and if you can do this. And usually for the better.

One other explanation is that this could have been a psychodrama brought on by any number of rational causes. Irrespective of the source, dealing with it rationally will enable you to take control and not feel like all your buttons are being pushed.

I wish you the best, and let us know if we can be of further assistance!

I am having the hardest time catching my breath today. It is like each deep breath something is pushing on my chest. I feel it around me contantly. I keep telling myself to gain control, but I can't get a feeling on it... I just am having the hardest time reading this. I feel like there is something surrounding me and I can't shake it off. And it is only when I am in the house. I can't wait for my Dad to come back. He will be back tomorrow night. I think I will take a valium and go to sleep. LOL... trying to at least.

It almost sounds like you are experiencing a bit of anxiety which is understandable after what you went through.

Try taking a few deep breaths, maybe go for a walk or do something to keep your mind off things till your father gets back. Perhaps J can help in this department too. Has he experienced anything?

[PhenomInvestigator]

Try this. Assume there is nothing there. In other words, ignore it completely. If you feel something coming on, distract yourself. Think about other, unrelated things. You may well discover that this will 'rid' you of whatever it is you are feeling over time.

I would also again encourage you to consider everything going on in your life. Do this outside in a place you feel comfortable. You might suddenly recognize some event that coincides with the onset of these feelings. Knowledge is power here.
