Forums · Sensitive to spirits
As I have spent some time on other paranormal message boards, I can't seem to remember who I have told what to. LOL
But anyway, I am sensitive to the presence of spirits and once while visting some friends I encountered what many call a ghost (I just say spirit most of the time). My friends were running a business out of an old plantation house (complete with slave quarters), and they were just getting the place painted and setting up for business. I was there to lend a hand with the painting etc. and we were standing in a large room chatting about this thing and that thing, when a presence walked past me and knocked me off balance. It was the presence of a woman (who seemed to be used to getting her way, I thought) as I came close to being knocked down on my behind.
I exclaimed to everyone what had just happened and was surprised to find that they already knew about the ghosts' presence and they told me her name, (I cannot remember her name at this time), but, they were so non-chalant about it, that it caught me off guard. How I knew it was the presense of a woman (who was once the lady of the house), I could not tell you...I just knew.
I finally calmed down a bit and went to be alone for few moments and collect my thoughts, when I felt the presence of something underneath the staircase on the first floor. Turned out to be the spirit of the guard dog that belonged to the original owners. Anyway, this was not my first encounter, nor my last, but it was the first time I had ever had my paranormal experience validated by other people and so, this event tends to stick out in my mind.
Perhaps this is not the most exciting story, (although we caught some freaky EVP's there that I will never forget...absolutely terrifying).
Anyway, I would love to hear about any encounter that you may have had validated by factual knowledge that was unknown to you at the time or by other trustworthy types of people.
Have you ever?

I am not sure I know how to put this to words, but here goes....
...I sense that I am not alone. I sense that there is a bubble of energy in one part of the area I am in. Sometimes the energy in the "bubble" is still, and at other times, I can feel it vibrate at a fast rate. The temperature drops a little and I feel a cold breeze blow near me or on me. I get tingly, (hair standing on end)usually in my hands and arms first, but sometimes it is all over. Sometimes, I feel as if someone
one is staring a hole intothe back of my head, while at other times, I am completly caught off guard. I ocassionally feel tingling movement in the area of my lower abdomen. I can sense emotion or the lack of emotion, but I have no words to explain that to anyone. I suppose, it is just that "Knowing" feeling, like a strong hunch or gut feeling.
In the past, I have worked ritual magick in my home and afterwards, I often feel transient energies, that produce odd events. These events can be anything from weird sounds with no apparent source, Electrical appliances turning turning on and off, lights ocassionally flickering, things moving to another location in the house or disappearing for long periods of time, (sometimes for good).
I have found that these are harmless energies, who like to make it known that they are there, and seem to be playful. Part of my spiritual path is Wicca, which is the reason for the "magick". I have had weird paranormal experiences on occasion, throughout my lifetime and I find it all very fascinating. However, I must mention there is a different feel to the energy that I sense when I encountered "ghosts" and these other energies I speak of.
That is about the best I can do to explain it, Thanks for asking,
