Hi
Everyone:
Today's issue of The Paranormal Insider will be another
Q
& A because I have so many fascinating letters and
questions on hand
that I think you will all enjoy reading.
Before we get to that, though, I
thought I'd update you
on my basement in the aftermath of the recent
channeling
session held there and the strange occurrence of the lights
going out. We had out of town company staying overnight
this past
weekend, and as we have a guest suite in the
basement, our friends settled
in for the night as they
always do on their visits. The next day, my
girlfriend,
who knew nothing about the strange activity with the lights
and the channeling session and who has slept over many
many times
peacefully, reported that she felt eyes on her
all night. Yesterday, I
investigated the basement and the
guest suite with some of the friends who
had participated
in the channeling session, and sure enough, we found
unusual cold spots, indicating spirit activity. We feel
it might be a
ghost who followed one of the girls over
here and somehow got 'detached'
from her during the
channeling. It feels like an older male energy and
harmless
enough, so I think I'll just leave things be for a while
and
see what develops. Will keep you posted!

A
Skeptic's Question
I subscribed to Paranormal Insider as a skeptic
interested
in paranormal stuff and I enjoy reading it. I am still
skeptical but I have a question. I was at a friend's house
that looked
to be built at least 40 years old. I seemed
like a normal old house but
during the tour of the house
we went up stairs and I instantly got
disoriented. At first
I thought I had just walked up the stairs too fast but
after sitting down in a chair the feeling just got worse.
The room was
about 50 feet long and 20 feet wide with low
arched ceilings like an attic.
It was decorated like an
average child's play room but it didn't have the
feeling
of a place a child played. So my question is: would the
architecture of the room be the reason for my
disorientation or could it
have any paranormal explanation.
Thanks
Alex
Hi
Alex:
The sensations you describe could be due to a number of
things.
One possible explanation is that this was a deja
vu experience, (meaning you
had been there or in a very
similar place in a past life). It is also
possible that
not so much the architecture, but inherent magnetic or
energy lines, or ley lines, contributed to the disoriented
feeling.
Dowsing or observing a compass in the room would
help verify whether there
are strange or unusual electro-
magnetic energy patterns in that room or
building. Thirdly,
and most probably, I feel, the place is haunted by either
a residual energy or spirit activity. Some years ago, I
was being given
a tour of a woman's newly-opened new age
store. It was in a very old
building and when she showed
us into the back room which was used for
private psychic
readings, I could barely bring myself to step across the
threshold. It was like walking through an invisible wall
of something
and it was very unpleasant. When I did
finally enter the room I felt dizzy
and disoriented. I
am pretty sure that either there had been a very
traumatic
or 'dark' reading done in there or some other unpleasant
event
had occurred, leaving a residual energy, or that
there was an actual spirit
entity inhabiting and/or haunt-
ing the room. By the way, was there anything
of a darkish
green colour in the play room? Like walls or furniture?
Also, was there a large potted plant like a palm or large
ficus
anywhere? Was the house in North America or in
Europe? Just wondering:>)

An
Overnight Deport
Hi Zsuzsana,
The story that got to me this week
was the lady who woke
with her sister's ring on her finger. In my case, I
had
jewelry removed.
I had been traveling in Arizona and New Mexico
when I came
across a roadside stand with Native American jewelry among
other items for sale. I found a bracelet that just
screamed for me
to buy it, though it was more extravagance
than I typically afford
myself. Still, I bought it. It was
unique and I really never saw it
again in any of the other
trading places I visited - and those were many. I
loved
the bracelet, tightened it onto my wrist so that it never
came
off. Twist or turn at night as I might, the bracelet
would jam on the
thicker part of my arm (leaving temporary
discoloration) rather than come
off.
One night, however, I slept fitfully. Something was
bothering
me and woke me from my slumber. I couldn't figure
it for anything, until I
noticed that my wrist was feeling
sore. I looked down and found my bracelet
gone. Thinking it
must have worked its way off - despite the good grip on me
that I had given it - I looked through the bedsheets, then
on the floor,
under the bed, in the pillow, around the
bed....everywhere. It just wasn't
there. It was as if
something came in the night and took it from me. I was
struck by the feeling that I had struggled against whatever
it was in my
sleep, and that was probably why I had woken
up. I never found the bracelet
anywhere. Though I looked
tirelessly for it.
Eventually I moved from
the apartment, clearing out all my
belongings I thought that if it was still
in the place I
would find it. No such luck. The loss of the bracelet still
haunts me with a feeling that some spirit did not feel I
should have the
bracelet and took it in the night. Is that
something you have ever heard of
before?
Thanks,
Annette
Hi Annette:
Yes, the
experience you have described is not at all
unlikely. It is also not out of
the question that one
day this bracelet will mysteriously return to you.
Have
you specifically 'asked' for it to be returned? Perhaps
if you
request or even demand for it to be brought back,
you will get a response.
Did the bracelet have any
stones/gemstones in it? Crystals and stones seem
to have
a life and even a will of their own. I have experienced
crystals
that didn't want to be with me and ended up
mysteriously 'relocating'
themselves in my environment.
In either case, whether your experience was a
spirit
deport or an item that just wanted to be elsewhere, I
do hope
your bracelet comes back one day.
best wishes, Zsuzsana

Animal
Visits
Hi Zsuzsana,
I know it is me the prolific e-mailer, but I
have some
comments for you.
First regarding Ouija boards, it really
annoys me that
they are sold as a child's game. In my opinion it should
not be sold for children or teens as poltergeist activity
can result.
Also as a teen I had a rather odd experience
with one. When we moved into
our new house it came with a
Ouija Board. The box was damaged and my Mom
decided to
throw it out along with the other garbage that was left
behind by the previous owners. It didn't want to leave.
Every time it
went out to the curb with the rest of the
garbage it would re-appear on the
coffee table in the
living room after the garbage had been picked up. After
three tries my Mom actually stood in the front yard with
it in her hand
until they came to collect the garbage when
they did she personally put it
into the garbage truck and
watched it get crushed. Imagine how shocked she
was when
she went back into the house and found it back on the
coffee
table. I was finally able to get rid of it that
weekend when I was burning
paper garbage in our back yard
incinerator. I decided to do a thorough job
of it and broke
the planchette as well as the board and burned them.
It
worked. My feeling with them is that they are neither good
nor evil
but a conduit to the other side and unless you
know exactly what you are
doing it is like throwing open
your front door in the middle of down town
and putting up
an everyone welcome sign. You do not know what or who you
are going to communicate with. I won't use them anymore,
but not because
I am afraid of them, because in order to
really test if you are getting
accurate information you
must have everyone involved be blindfolded. When
this
happens 99.9% of the time the information you receive is
garbled
nonsense. Most of the time when the Ouija is used
one or more people in the
circle are sub-consciously moving
the planchette themselves without being
aware of it.
Thank you for the information on the numbers it is quite
helpful.
I have a question for either you or your readers. I would
like to explain first then ask the question. I have a
friend who has
gone through a lot of physical challenges
in her life and recently has
realized that she has some
psychic and healing abilities. She is working on
developing
them now. Last week she was sitting in her living room and
was looking out of her sliding door at the flowers on her
balcony. This
was in the middle of the day. To her surprise
and pleasure a peregrine
falcon landed on her balcony
railing right in the middle of the window she
happened to
be looking through. It looked in at her, tilted its head,
stayed for about a minute and then flew away. She has
lived in the same
apartment for many years and has never
seen a peregrine falcon before, even
though we have a
nesting area in the city for them. I have seen them 3
times (in my entire life of 36 years) but only in the
early morning,
never during the day. My question is this
what is the significance of seeing
one? She has asked me
what it means and I haven't been able to answer her as
yet.
Kahlest Tiger Eye
Hi Kahlest:
All animals, from
the lowliest slug to the brides, bees
and butterflies, primates, cats and
dogs, etc. can be
animal spirit guides or messengers. An animal that shows
up in unexpected or remarkable circumstances, like this
falcon, was more
than likely bringing your friend a message.
Falcons in general represent soul
healing, accompanying
the soul back to the soul world, lessons in swiftness,
controlling speed and movement, understanding magick,
astral travel, and
general healing. The peregrine falcon's
appearance can signify a need to
guard your health against
environmental pollutants, as it its species is
presently on
the endangered species list, partly due to the buildup of
chlorinated hydrocarbons in its food supply. All falcons
are
opportunists and act upon opportunity at the correct
moment. They know when
to act and how to commit to their
actions for a successful outcome. Timing
is important to
the peregrine and patience is one of its virtues. Those
with this totem will continually find themselves in
situations where
both of these skills are tested.
Peregrines stimulate a quick, graceful
and agile mind using
its mental faculties effectively and patiently to
capture
what it wants and desires the most. They are daylight
hunters
with bullet shaped bodies and long pointed wings
that facilitate high diving
speed. Strong and fast they
fly high and dive with tremendous swiftness
striking with
clenched talons and killing by impact.
The peregrine
falcon is incredibly focused and have strong
concentration skills. Those
with this totem would do well
in any work pertaining to the mind. Meditation
and
disciplined spiritual studies would also be of benefit.
In the
Native American traditions the peregrine falcon is
associated with past life
recall and can show us how to
dive into ourselves without fear. It holds the
medicine
of precision, timing, grace, patience and acute mental
perception. It teaches those with this medicine how to use
their mental
capabilities to the fullest, move in harmony
with their own rhythm and
strike with force when necessary.
