    To be honest I've never heard cases about succubus nor incubus, at least not in Mexico, but then again I wouldn't be surprised if there are plenty.

    "Real compassion kicks butt and takes names, and it is not pleasant on certain days. If you are not ready for this fire, then find a new-age, sweetness-and-light, soft-speaking, perpetually smiling teacher, and learn to relabel your ego with spiritual sounding terms. But stay away from those that practice real compassion, because they will fry your ass, my friend."

    Exactly my point! Your two cents it not as worthless as you think it is. You'll find that a lot of times the ability to access the "extra" senses is passed down from generation to generation, and those with Native American heritage will find it easier to access these senses, simply because it was/is such a part of their natural belief systems. It's cell memory (yea, I read Biology of Belief) but it does play a small role in how easily we access these senses. More importantly, if you really want to develop them, you just have to make up your mind and learn from someone (like me) who can teach you.

    I can relate to your mother being afraid when she began developing her senses. I went through a period of time in my early 20s when it seemed I was being catapulted through time and space, gathering information and developing my "gifts" at lightening speed. It became overwhelming. What put me over the edge and made me slam on the brakes for about 10 years was an experience I had when developing my sense of "extra touch" (feeling energy with my hands and body). I was lying in bed one night, in total darkness, and I was holding a quartz crystal in the palm of my right hand while trying to shoot energy out through my palm and through the crystal. What I felt was a buzz or shock of electricity (which I'm sure was magnified by the crystal), and what I saw was a blinding shot of pure white light. It freaked me out so much that I threw the crystal across the room and I'm sure I curled into a fetal position for the rest of the night.

    The point is, after you calm down, try to think logically about what frightened you, set it aside as a lesson in learning, and move on. It's been an incredible journey and continues each day I take a breath.

    This leaves me with a question. If one wanted to develop this ability, what advice would you (anyone reading this) give?

    I think that the answer is really different for everyone, actually. If it weren't, it would be too easy and everyone would already be doing it. The first step though, is getting past yourself. Your own subconscious acts as a filter, and you can't just flip that switch to the "off" position easily. You have to be able to believe that you can do it, and you've got to have an open mind to receive "the signal", if you want to call it that. The more open you are, the more information you receive and the clearer it is.

    Knowledge can take you a long way in this. Lori's book can be a good first step. We also have a recommended reading list on our website that has a lot of information on the subject, and some have exercises that can help you learn to focus. I would suggest that if you do go down this path, that you also study how to protect and defend yourself against any unwanted communications, etc. Many gifted mediums out there would tell you that the gift they have is more of a curse, because they can't or don't know how to shut it off or at least control the gift that they have, and have been constantly assaulted by spirits trying to communicate with them. So I would say this if you really want to work to activate any abilities: Be careful what you wish for....

    James and I more or less had the same conversation after the events in the Soul Catcher emails that are in the book. He wanted to make sure that I was really ready to go down that rabbit hole & see what I could really do, & that I was really ready to see the things that I could potentially see. While my progression has been rapid & I have developed skills way beyond what I expected, we took the "full picture" approach to the exercises. I can shut it off if I want to. I can defend myself quite well against a negative spirit, and make them regret the day they met me if it came down to it. But that's just me - the same processes that we did for me may or may not work for you.

    Long story short, do a LOT of research, and make sure that this is a path that you want to go down, then believe that you can, then do it. When you reach a level that you are comfortable with, then stop pushing it further. Some people may be comfortable just sensing presences, or just hearing the voices, or being able to really "see" what is around us. I know people that have pushed it too far past their comfort level, and believe me, it's not pretty.

But then you get into the realm of 'is it really there, or is it there because I created it'.

    Another thing i once did, was to try and focus on those things that you see out of the corner of your eye, learn to use your peripheral vision, you will be surprised at what you will catch, and what you can see, but don't consciously acknowledge.

    I'm no expert with how to be a psychic, but I believe we all have the ability, its just latent in many people. I have some psychic ability in my family too so that probably helped in my case.

    Just my two cents, probably completely worthless LOL


    Hurritt
    Not worthless at all, Hurritt. Just easier said than done. You hit the nail on the head talking about the belief system, and that's the main driving force behind the sensitivities that you are developing. You can say all day long that you believe in ghosts, but if you haven't gotten past your own upbringing and belief systems that manage your subconscious filters, then it's just talk. You have a couple of advantages working for you - you come from a family that has abilities, so you more than likely weren't "programmed" from a young age that it's wrong, and you have had some intense experiences that I think would cause the most ardent agnostic to start questioning his stance. With all of that going on, there's no way that you don't develop at least some sort of ability.

    I've always said that this says a lot about the many "ghost hunter" shows out there and the fact that despite all of the exposure these folks have day in and day out, they still can't see or hear anything. There's no way you're around that much activity for that much time & don't become more & more sensitive to it, unless they still believe that it's all crap. I think that says a lot for their true motivations, and I think that it has set a bad example for many groups around the country. How are you helping people when you roll into a house with anywhere from 6 to 20 people like it's a party, take a bunch of pics & audio, say "yep, you're haunted", then haul ass & post the pictures & audio all over your web page & facebook page? But I digress....this is a rant for another day.......

    This is what got me interested in the idea in the first place. About a year ago I unwittingly moved on to a vortex site with a pretty dark recent history and pretty much straight away I started getting visitors. Usually really late around 1-3am and if I was doing something arty or meditative. In my minds eye I'd just see someone standing there looking at me and I could feel like there was someone there. None threatening, just curious and having a look at me. Once I became open to that though I had a couple of encounters that were a lot darker so I learnt about protection magic and set ground rules about what was allowed in and what was acceptable behaviour. I've found calling animal avatars for protection work for me. As well as incense and obsidian arrows.

    I mentioned the strongest one that was in dream form in this post http://nexus.2012info.ca/forum/showt...8892#post68892

    I'm pretty sure someone from another forum tried to remote view me and freak me out. The regulars know who I'm talking about. He who must not be named! I was just sat watchng tv and got a sudden idea that I had to move straight away. When I did I turned round feeling something behind me and I saw (in my minds eye) their outline in shadow with what looked like a tidal wave of frothing black water behind him. It felt false like it was a glamour designed to shock and the power was being borrowed from someone else.

    I also have a bit of a history with psychics being weird with me. They never want to do any kind of reading, say odd things like I have a 'presence' and look at me like they're seeing something other than my devastating good looks.

    Anyway, I figured that if the ability is there then it must be for a reason and I may as well learn to use it. If for no other reason than to stop it being used against me or just happening spontaneously.

    I'll check out the reading list on your site, thanks for the reply!

    As a side question, have you guys ever had any dealings with Michelle Belanger? I have a couple of her books and for a 'tv psychic' she seems to be the real deal as she has that no shit attitude you don't normally see with the more spooky showmen like Derek Acorah.

    Be careful about being too dogmatic in "this means that" type of thing. Very few things are set in stone in this line of work, and all things must be interpreted carefully, else you get into a meaningless debate like "a dream about a black raven tapping on a window sill means death" when a raven can just as easily have an entirely different meaning to the person experiencing the vision. Much of this is subjective.

    To further expound on that point, not all spirits that are of "this" or "that" type necessarily manifest in this or that way. There are very few constants present in all manifestations. It's always best to speak in generalities. While it would be a true statement to say that some manifestations are connected to a temperature fluctuation, it would be foolish to state that all do., etc.

    I am ESPECIALLY careful of any pre-conceived notions of spirits or so-called "demons" with either proper names such as "Azrael", etc. or any labels or categorizations such as succubus or incubus. To use those those labels implies assumptions and pre-conceived notions that may nor may not be true. Let the evidence, moment and situation speak for itself. Do not judge, only assess and do so with as neutral a perspective as possible.

    I/we are not all knowing, but I do speak from experience and as often as possible speak from the Path of the Heart.

    Your mileage may vary. Sanitized for your protection.

    I'm right there with you, Anno. I have also apparently moved to a property that is completely saturated with activity. Not just my house, but the entire area. Almost everyone on my street has experienced something strange, and it has made for some interesting conversations at the block parties as everyone learned of my experiences.

    I never had anyone freak out or anything while trying to read me, but when the group was initially in my house, all of the mediums noticed that there was something different about me. It's part of what sparked the conversations that sent me down the path. I've also noticed that mediums that can pick up on thoughts have an exceptionally hard time reading me.

    When we began the process of opening me up, we spoke about the necessity to make sure I could protect myself, as well, and that was made evident by one of my first "trial runs" with an existing client that James took me to so we could see what I could pick up. To say the least, the place was a mess. Not only was one of the kids being harassed by a spirit, but apparently the father was a potentially incredibly powerful medium that refused to accept his gift, but was completely wide open and the resulting PK manifested around him and his family was incredible. A couple of days after the visit, James & I got on a conference call with him from our respective houses. While I was sitting in my living room listening in on the call, a dark shadow materialized out of nowhere, walked across my living room into my dining room, then sat down and stared at me during the conversation. I recognized the figure from chasing it around his house - the guy was remote-viewing me without even realizing he was doing it....

    Later on, after all of the goings-on that happened around the events in the book (there was a lot more, we only touched on some of the activity - maybe we'll save it for another book....), a couple of negative entities found their way into the house, and started causing problems. Not only that, they started mimicking some of the aspects of a demonic haunting, including filling a room with hundreds of flies that came out of nowhere, among other things. Personally, I think they were doing it to harass my Mother-in-Law that was staying with us, to taunt her uber-religious background. One night, after waking me up, as I was prepping to "blast" the house to boot whatever was in it to the outside, one of them manipulated my wife into saying "Don't do it. I'll stop - I promise" from a dead sleep. Needless to say, she was pretty pissed when she found out about that. They put up a fight when we kicked them out, as well. As we started the cleansing process, one of them attacked my Mother-in-Law and held her down and choked her, while the other one struck me in the chest as I was beginning the protection prayer so hard that it knocked me back about three feet & made me stammer quite a bit. We fought through it and got them out, but it showed me beyond a doubt that protection was very important. I was still in a major learning phase when this happened, so this was the event that proved to me that I was on the right path & really motivated me. Today, if the same thing happened, those entities would rue the day that they crossed my path (as another entity did when it slapped my wife, leaving a visible handprint), and I'm constantly working to get even better.

    To this day, our property remains active. We had to move our bed away from the window, due to the amount of spirits knocking on the glass to get my attention and talk to me. The one that basically reached in and slapped me on the forehead to get my attention was pretty much the last straw on that one. It was friendly, and just wanted to talk, but messing with my sleep pissed me off, as I'm sure you can understand... You can't walk around my house at night, either, without someone tapping on the glass as they see you walking around the house. We're used to it, but we have to warn anyone staying in our house so that it doesn't freak them out.

    I haven't had any dealings with Michelle Belanger, but I'd love to sit down and have a beer with her. Same as Chip Coffey. I've seen other documentaries that included them in it, and they are definitely the real deal. Did you know that Michelle also considers herself as a "psychic vampire", that can draw the psychic energy from other people? That's someone I would not want to piss off.....

    Most of the information about psychic vampires is non-sense. The negative kind are usually un-realised vampires that don't realise what they are or they're just people with damaged psyches/chakras. The info we get in the alternative community about psychic vampires being evil people is simply fear mongering propogated by people who don't know what they're talking about but have books to sell.
    I made a post on this the other day in the vampire thread. True vampires are a force for good and removing energy is a healing process. Although there are the darker ones that consciously use it maliciously the universe will take care of them for us as they're going against harmony. Michelle has a book called The Psychic Vampire's Codex that explains it all really well. As for her, I've spoken to her on Facebook and she's really nice and very approachable, although I agree that pissing her off wouldn't be a wise move. She's a tough cookie.

    Harmony is the highest natural state, so anyone opposing it must fail.

    Yeah lol. Dracula is a sanquinarian not a vampire. The dark blood drinking creature of the night vampire is a creation of the Christian mindset looking to demonise the original energy workers and shamans as well as attacking sexuality. True vampires don't even like to use the word vampire because of its connotations and corrupted meaning. Check my previous posts from my profile page for what I said in the vampire thread the other day as I go in to it there. I'm not usually one to care about going off topic but I think this thread should be kept on topic seeing as it has to do with an organisation. =]

    Yup. An ability is an ability. How you choose to use it is separate. You can use energy transfer to weaken and control or you can use it to improve someone's health. When we see request for help posts here and we send energy, it's the same thing.

    Fair enough Anno. Out of respect for the OP I'll take a look at the Vampire thread and comment(about the vampire stuff) there.

    For those of you who have read the book thus far, I'd like to ask for a favor.

    Please visit the Amazon Kindle page and share your thoughts on the book in a short review. There's a link to write a review below the description:

    Amazon Kindle Page

    The number of good reviews seem to be tightly connected with how Amazon weighs search results within their system, which makes sense.

    For those of you who are truly interested in this field and our work, AND post a review for Help! I'm Haunted, I will make our full group reading list available to you. This is much more detailed than the suggested reading in the book and includes an outline for the study program we're putting together and a list of movies we ask members to become familiar with. Simply post your review, and shoot me a PM with a link to your review and I'll respond with the link to our materials.

I admire anyone with the courage to stand out and make a difference, even if it makes them look like an oddball. It takes a lot of courage for her to be up-front about her non-mainstream spiritual beliefs as well.

    I have pretty much the same feelings about Chip Coffey and James Van Praagh. I especially respect Chip's work with children.

    There are other, more known, names in the field that I have entirely different feelings about, but I don't like to put anyone down publicly, especially when I have no personal experience with them.

    I've seen a few episodes of his Psychic Kids program. Not sure if that's the correct title. I really liked how he supports them in accepting what is a gift and saves them from being marginalised. The america tv show format is very different from what we like here in the UK so it might seem a bit melodramatic to our eyes but it still comes across as a positive step in the right direction. What do you make of the Indigo Child phenomena?

    I'll happily trade you a review for some more info. I use my friend's business account to buy kindle books. They charge VAT on them in the UK so using his account means I can claim it back lol. Sneaky I know but hey, 20% discount = more books! I'll pm you when I catch up with him later on.

    It is an absolute fact that both dust and moisture in the air can cause orbs on both photos and videos, especially with a flash.

    It is also a fact that spirits can and do often manifest as an orb. I have seen it many times myself, personally.

    They are often indistinguishable. For that reason, we, as a group, place almost 0 value on orb photos or video. The only possible exception is when someone takes a photo and a medium is pointing at a particular spot and there is a solid, obvious orb in the exact spot the medium is indicating as the location of the spirit. EVP captured at the same time is ideal.

    Even then, you'll never be able to convince a skeptic that an orb is anything other than dust, moisture, a problem with the lens, CCD or other obstruction.

    EVP, at least to our group, has much more value because by it's very nature it illustrates communication, which implies sentience / consciousness. That's not to say that you'll convince a skeptic with EVP, but it's at least harder to dismiss. EVP must be clear and discernible with minimal audio enhancement / guessing if it's to be considered valid in my book. Refer to the EVP Samples page on our site for good examples of this: http://www.houstonghost.com/evp

    Difficult to respond to that question cleanly because there are a lot of different assumptions out there using the Indigo / Crystal Children flag.

    I will say this though, we, as a people, seem to be undergoing a serious spiritual evolution / awakening. I believe that this is further encouraged / compounded by a re-incarnation of many more enlightened and spiritually aware individuals. My personal belief is that they are here to help guide us through this transition. I cannot, in any way, substantiate this claim other than to say that I was born with this information and have been given this same message by trusted sources.

    I apologize if it seems like I'm skirting around your question or being evasive. I speak with conviction about what I KNOW, but I try to be quick to point out what I feel to be an assumption.

    Your mileage may vary.

    Re: James Sangster & Tony Barton - Help I'm Haunted

    is it fair to say that we have been conditioned to fear ghosts and hauntings.
    but if we say spirit then that takes the frightening edge off the topic .
    in movies we have paranormal activity series,blair witch,insidious ect all wanting to scare and excite us as to condition us to fear any experience we may encounter,when in reality when we encounter a ghost or a haunting they do not mean any harm,they have not gone to the light yet and are trapped on this plane or we are just experiencing a image of a past encounter.
    how many ghosts want to actually hurt someone?but are frustrated as to where they are.
    also how many spirits do come back to help those that have not made the transition into the light. if they do then why do we have such old hauntings.
    hauntings are usuually associated with the last century,why do we not have hauntings from earlier centuries?
    i have heard of animal hauntings also,so why do we not hear of T Rex roaming round someones garden?
    brain,s doing overtime sorry.

    Some people have, believe it or not! Try to ignore the description and comments for this video as they're very hostile. Unfortunately it's the only trimmed down copy of him saying this that I can find.

    A very small percentage, but it's still a real number so it's still incorrect to say "ghosts can't hurt you". That is complete and total BS. A spirit capable of manipulating the physical world can jack you up! However, most spirits have little to no motivation to get that serious.

    Quote Originally Posted by Dreamwalker View Post

    It would be difficult for me to put a number on that, even at a guess because the scenario you describe in the first part of the question is not something most of the living world would likely even be aware of, much less witness to.

    I believe most old hauntings are residual in nature, in that they are not "hauntings" in the sense of involving a sentient entity. Nobody is hanging around. I believe most really old hauntings 100-200+ years are likely just emotional impressions that have been imprinted on the physical world. They persist so long as enough of the psychical world that contributes to the resolution of their hologram continues to exist. At some point the world will change so that their hologram is no longer perceptible, even to sensitives / psychics / mediums.

    Quote Originally Posted by Dreamwalker View Post

    well, the above has already addressed that scenario. However, the next logical question would be, what about hauntings that are not residual. Why do we not see more of them?

    I've pondered this many many times myself, discussed it at length with many peers over the years and ultimately come to the following conclusion. I believe most of what would keep a person / spirit here after their death would be their emotional attachment and/or emotional investment in what they loved. Primarily this would be offspring / children, grandchildren, family members, etc, but it could easily be stretched to physical buildings, organizations, businesses, etc. It seems logical that as the family lines are further and further removed from when the spirit was alive the less and less emotionally invested they would likely be in hanging out here and either watching or helping / meddling in the affairs of the living. The same can be said for physical buildings, organizations, businesses, etc. As time goes on these things may lose relevance or even cease to exist. Again, spirits are just people so you have to boil it down to their motivations. Why would they want to hang around after what they cared about ceased to be relevant?

    This also fits the odd situation where you have a haunting stretching over an extra-ordinary length of time if it's attached to something that is still relevant to our society. Historical castles, battlefields may still be haunted with sentient entities simply because by the virtue of the fact that we have made them historical monuments we may have continued to keep them relevant and continued a need/desire for sentient spirits to stay, but typically only in historically significant locations locations that we still frequent.

    After so long a time and a place and people that no longer exist for such a creature where would be the relevance in staying? The whole planet has "moved on" to quote Stephen King. Fundamentally i doubt there's much difference between how animal spirits "operate" and how human spirits operate, but maybe that's because i'm a staunch believer in both the process of evolution and in reincarnation. I see ample evidence for both.

    Never be sorry for asking questions when there are people willing and able to help answer. Many people did that for me, which got that to where I am, We are helping to do that for each other so that you can continue to grow and expand. Questions prove you're growing and thinking. Without that... what's the point?

    In many cases, forcing myself to sit down and work through articulating an answer helps me to see it from a different light. I immensely enjoy the conversation here.

    Re: James Sangster & Tony Barton - Help I'm Haunted

    I have another question. Do you think EM Radiation from all the different types of radio traffic we have works to block out ghosts and people's ability to see them? When I was a kid I remember reading a book about famous hauntings and wondering why they were all old places and ancient monks and so on. At the time the answer 'came to me' that it was radio waves. We and spirits are essentially EM Waveforms and since our use of EM Radio has increased, the reports of ghosts seems to have decreased. Have you guys come across anything that might support or disprove this?

    Re: James Sangster & Tony Barton - Help I'm Haunted

    hey JD and Tb,i have a tale that i would like your opinion on please.
    i have mentioned this on the forums before so sorry guys if you have already read it.

    a couple of years ago i was going through a bit of a mental meltdown.during this period of about six weeks i went to see a medium.long story ,short he told me i was sensitive to spirit and to visit his spiritualist church for further training and development.of which i did for a few week.
    one day at the church a woman stood behind and placed her hands on my shoulders,i was told i was receiving healing.
    anyway felt no different and went home.
    so at about ten i went to bed with my partner.i,m lay their in bed waiting for my partner who was in the bathroom.
    she comes out and closes the bedroom door,now all we have is the natural dark light.
    she gets into bed and turns to me.she looks and seems shocked then she passes her hands near my face.
    i ask her what is wrong?she says their is someone next to me as if they are kneeling next to my side of the bed.
    i look and see nothing.she says it looks like the shadow of a woman smiling.
    with this i reply well i do not sense any thing hostile ,so just be calm.with this my partners eyes start to tear.
    at the same time i start to feel waves of warmth starting from my head to my toes.
    but i still could not see anything and my partner could still see the shadow(outline)of a woman smiling as if in prayer.
    the waves of warmth lasted about five minutes and then just dispersed as did the shadow.
    my partner stated that she got the impression it was my mother giving me healing.
    so we chatted a while and drifted off to sleep.
    the next day i felt so energised and full of life and energy,i was like a new person.
    this feeling lasted for about a week,then faded.
    to this day i still believe and doubt of what happened,i know it sounds contradictory but until i actually see something!

    have you heard of any similar stories of spirit giving healing or helping loved ones.
    thanks

    some more questions please.
    have you ever visited Amityville.
    where are the most haunted places in the U.S and U.K where you are certain that there are actual hauntings.
    in the U.K there is a trend trend at the moment where groups of people pay to stay in a haunted house overnight.
    question is how many are actually haunted and how many are rip offs.
