Thankfully I only had one encounter of what I believe was a negative encounter…

It was a “vibrational feeling” of eminent evil or danger within my home. It came so suddenly, as if it to announce itself and made me very nervous along with a strong awareness of something being different..

No sounds, no voices, no visual identity, yet fully aware of its presence. Having read before if you have a negative energy encircle you that upon command “in the name of Jesus Christ they must leave” that is exactly what I said. While it was not immediate release I did feel that vibrational impact begin to dissipate… Along with emitting a positive energy of “you are here for help” but not in this form can you be receptive.. It never returned in that first capacity but did again come..Then just stopped altogether..

But I can tell you or will share with you two other encounters that were very positive later..

Sorry , I had missed this post too Linda. Vibrational feelings can be very telling of an upcoming event that will prove to be of significant personal importance. Unfortunately our initial posts to this topic section are mixed in with all the other posts and somewhat easy to miss.

I was tested twice, and both times reacted in similar ways.

Both times I was in my mid forties, feeling well, alert. Although this all happened 20 years ago, I recall the events vividly.

Once upon a Christmas Eve Night I was alone in my house at midnight. My wife had gone to a Universalist Church service and she forbid me from going with her. Our sons were out and about. I was cleaning the house after the day's events.

I carried some items down to the basement family room, which is finished and nice. But still, descending down to a basement at midnight is inherently creepy. Sure enough, I detected movement out of the corner of my eye.

I felt my chest do something as my adrenaline flowed and my heart began to speed. I turned my body towards the source of my fright. That was significant. Taking a confrontational stance instead of fleeing.

Immediately I saw a small toy teddy bear across the room in the act of turning towards me. I felt my skin turn to goose bumps and the hair on the back of my neck stand on end. Teddy stopped and stared at me, unsmiling.

I walked towards it, thinking "this is IT!" SCIENCE! Observations; temp normal, no odors or sounds...wait...

Is the toy electronic? Does it have an attract mode?

I advanced, no longer frightened (but bold nonetheless), and picked up the toy.

Whew! A three position switch on the bottom. OFF- PLAY- ON.

The toy was in the PLAY mode. I turned it off and went upstairs.

I analyzed the event and decided I felt good about my reaction. One doesn't know how one will react in such a situation until it really happens.

I will relate to you another one soon, and I am hoping to see other's posts of paranormal experiences.

Thanks for contributing to this not only mysterious, but very important topic.

I’ve always had an interest in the app normal or the paranormal or spiritual awareness. I think that’s probably why I sit a little better with it all because there is at least some understanding although there was so much more I wish I knew and then constant search up.

My grandmother came to me often in dreams and I often heard her say my name during the day especially if I was getting upset about something..

I still visualize her in her vehicle, I used to color the little old lady from Pasadena because she drove like a raving maniac.

While I miss her tremendously in the physical sense I feel her every single day.

I can assure you that the feeling is mutual. It's nice to have a connection on a higher plane with a loved one who has crossed over. It doesn't fill the void but it sure helps ease the pain. It's odd that those memories are just like yesterday and only an eyeblinks distance in our memory which makes me ask, what is time?

Crumb sakes first let me apologize for my post!! This damn speak talk feature is BS..It’s not like I don’t make enough errors but to have it change words on its own is frustrating !! In a hurry I didn’t proof it either!! The biggest mistake..

That connection you speak of can be just perfectly timed as if they know you need their words of wisdom in whatever..

For me its like needing their guidance and reassurance, but not specifically thinking of “them per se..” You can talk to them in your mind, and then feel their response sometimes very gradually…The most important message they have for you is that they are still with you when you need them… And in that your serenity is found…Or the calm comes with more clarity because of the self analysts you just went through to get to your “ peace.”

You made a very, very, good point in implying that our awareness of "the other" does give us a much stronger
tool to deal with the tragedies in this world than we would otherwise have.

Thank you, sky, perhaps why we do seek out more understanding… The “ need to know” the motivator…

No problem. I use text dictate often and sometimes it works great but many times I end up with something I didn't want. A funny....a friend of mine gets a GPS for his van that has the talk to feature on it. Oh he is so proud. He has a van that has the auto braking function on it so it puts the thing auto pilot with him steering and the thing will run right up to back end of the car in front of the vehicle and then brake fairly hard (to which I'm not happy) but he wants it to work so bad he keeps doing it. So he and I are going down the road and he is dictating to this GPS and with his accent it can't tell what he's saying.....he says one thing.....the GPS repeats back another thing and this just goes on for at least 15 minutes with him getting a higher and higher irritated tenor to his voice and I'm just dying laughing because we both know where the place is at. Sometimes this modern technology needs a few tweaks! lol

Funny, you have a lot of patience too.. But if it makes you laugh all good. !!!

At least he doesn’t argue with his GPS like I do and yes, I always lose… Get a feeling I’m going the wrong way only to have to turn around and go the way the GPS outlined… This coming from someone who gets lost in her backyard!! No sense of direction !! 😁😂

=================================

I appreciate your posts, guys, and sense that those of us interested in M&P are developing comraderies and sharing more and more! This is wonderful!

Today, I called my daughter in Holland, and asked her to send me her recollections of our Groton adventures. She had quite a few that I hadn't recalled. This will be the makings of another chapter in my saga. Out daughters were in their early teens at that time, and they knew more than my wife and I did.

My first and only experience with the paranormal was in 2007 and it was profound enough to turn me from a skeptic to a believer. This is about the third time I've ever told what happened. None of my friends know. I don't talk about it out of fear that it might happen again if I do.

I was living in Jackson, GA with my girlfriend. I'll refer to her as Kat in this telling. We had rented a old house right in town, next door to the First Baptist Church. According to the owner the house was approximately 125 years old at the time. It was a cool looking old house built in what I call a shotgun style. There was a big screened in porch that ran the width of the house. When you entered the front door you were in a wide hallway that went all the way to the back door at the far end of the house. All the rooms were off the hallway.

After we had been there a month or two, Kat kept waking up in the middle of the night saying she could hear people talking. She said it sounded like it was coming from inside the house. I checked out all the rooms, but never heard or saw anything. I wrote it off to voices traveling in from town. We were only a half block from the main street. She insisted she heard voices. She couldn't understand what they were saying, but it definitely sounded like they were either inside the house or just outside the window. It creeped me out, but I was a skeptic and just pushed it out of my mind.

Then this happened. I came home from work one day. Kat was sitting on the porch having a drink. I told her I was going to take s shower, then I'd join her. The bathroom was the last door on the left side of the hallway. I went in, closed the door and started getting ready for my shower. I was in the middle of shaving when there was a tapping on the door. There was only one restroom so I figured it was kat. I told her through the door to give a minute, I'll let you in when I finished shaving. A second later there was pounding on the door so hard the frame was shaking. I still thought it was Kat so I took two or three steps and snatched the door open trying to startle her, but there was nobody there. There was no way it could have been Kat. I would have seen her running for the front door. I headed for the porch and she was still sitting where I had left her. She looked at me and said in all seriousness, "you're white as a sheet. You look like you've seen a ghost!" I told her what happened. We stayed in that house three more weeks before we moved out, giving up a $1200 security deposit.

We found out later that several of the previous renters had moved out with no notice. The house is still there. I have photos of it or If anyone reads this and lives near Jackson, I'll be glad to send you the address. Something else I wasn't aware of until after we moved. Right down the road from the house is Jackson State Penitentiary. That's where inmates in Georgia go to be put to death...

Thank you for your kind words.

That's a great question. I am a spiritual person, but I'm not religious. If I was going to label myself I would say I lean more towards Judaism than Christianity.

I know there's a God. He has answered my prays many times during my 68 years on earth. In my mind that's a supernatural event, so I don't have a problem reconciling my spiritual beliefs with what happened in Jackson.

I would add that I felt a lot of guilt running from that house. When I pray it's for strength and wisdom when I'm faced with hard times. I know I could have stayed and God would have been my strength again. But to be honest, I was terrified. Prayer never even crossed my mind.

I didn't mention this in my story, but after that night in the bathroom I would hear a man's voice talking directly into my right ear on several occasions. It always happened in the hallway as I was leaving the house to go to work. The fact it happened in broad daylight was really disturbing. The voice was loud enough to startle me, but Kat never heard it. I wimped out and ran, and I'm not proud of that...

Thank you. It's nice to be able to tell what happened without feeling like I'm being judged.
