Autumn Energy

I've posted about Samhain before on this blog (Click Here to go to Wikipedia's Samhain entry, and Here for the past entry on my blog about it) but I haven't fully broached the subject of Autumn Energy. Btw, I love Wikipedia. Akashic almost hmm? If someone was a full psychic, which would be torturous as they'd hear every thought from every spirit ever - they would be a wikipedia.. except more painfully and they'd probably go insane. I must stop my circuitousness! Naw, what would I be without the occasional segue?
Alright, Autumn Energy to a medium, psychic, etc - is a wonderful thing to behold. So long as you can restrain it enough to keep focus. I haven't found articles online about it yet, but I hope to share this with you as best I can.
Autumn is my most favorite time, as the air - the earth - the plants - the animals all give off this wondrous energy. It's ebullient, it's scintillating to the nerves, it's positively thrilling. Everything is on fire in a way, except this fire can't hurt you - it just warms your soul like a roller coaster ride. I often feel it is a bright energetic pink - akin to a fuscia or a magenta light. It makes everything so much more interesting, beautiful; and it also brings out the excitement in spirits. Even after all the pretty Autumn leaves have turned to mulch, it's still there to brighten things up.
So what is it? What is this energy, this light, this feeling? Why do ghosts love it so? Even people without awakened psychic ability seem to notice when they run into this energy. Speaking of which, I want to make it clear that I think everyone has the ability to be a psychic/medium. I wish I had more energy and time, and of course less sickness so that I could help more people open up. I have a list of interested people that I will get back to once I am better. Today I really needed to post, and hopefully answer emails - despite my poor health. The operation made me temporarily better, but for some reason I'm in a new flare up. Maybe a cold or flu that won't go away.
Spirits have described this phenomenon in different ways to me, so let me put down the "interviews" I have luckily managed to get. A great thank you to all those involved, and the people who "lent" me their deceased family members to ask these questions to - lovely people!

1. Lucky - a spirit who died in 1986 - male, fought in the Korean War very briefly (although they wanted me to mention it in case a friend read it) with Captain Lou and his best friend from Colorado "Mitchell" with the blue eyes. Lucky has a very speedy and chaotic way of communicating, so I hope I can relate his messages adeptly.
Lucky (Ramon or Ramone or Ramen) - describes this energy as tiny butterfly like clusters made of even smaller "needles" of "electricity" riding on the pathways known as Ley lines. This co-mingling of energies creates a psychic or spiritual Aurora. He only says, when I ask about these clusters' origin, "they came from the horizon." All living things - including plants, animals, mold, etc react to it through their own personal magnetic or energetic fields.

Perhaps it comes from weather changes or solar position changes etc; I have no expertise in such areas, and I really don't want to say "I know" when there is no way someone could unless they were privy to all the universal information out there.. re: torturous open psychics. I hope no one is that open, but if someone is - please contact me, I have questions!

2. Marice (or Merris or Marisse) Gangham (or Gingham, Gengham) - a deceased person from Sault St. Marie in the 60's - more detail: wore a bow in her hair, red and sometimes blue - real ribbon. Brown eyes. Doe eyes. Pretty and a fun person. She sends out a message to her Mother or Brother - whomever taught her how to "fish" or "fush" - and as a "other" in the name. I put two f-words in "" as she made the little quotation marks in her communication. She says "the Light is always on" and sends a burst of absolutely power love and happiness to all her family. "Be they old or new, I watch them all."
When asked about the energy, Marice says she has two theories. One is that the energy is newborn souls, orbiting the planet in the Universal Life Force. Her second theory is that they are a mother energy. I am not sure what that means. She also thinks it could be a trick of the "light", but there is too much of an effect. Many things in nature are greatly effected by the tricks of light, she communicates - so perhaps there is nothing more to it than a trick.

3. Sultan Mike Landry (or Laundy, something similar) - I have no idea what the sultan part of that name means but it doesn't mean what the title usually means. He has no message for anyone, and that in itself, I think - is a message to someone.
He says that the energy is two colliding forces, much like Lucky explained - but without the ley lines and other details. He says these colliding forces take place in Autumn for the same reason each year and that it wakes up spirits like the warm sun on a cat does.

Again, thank you to these spirits and I hope the messages get across.

For my skeptical readers... there is of course one thing that courses through all of those whom go through Autumn on a regular basis. Equatorial people might not, but those who experience long Winters definitely feel: the urge to prepare for the lean months. It's in us. perhaps in our genetic memory. Our primary directive is the survival of the species. Even before our own survival, as seen when a mother protects her young through pain or death. I like to include this as I am fully open to the idea that anything can be true. Our existence is so subjective to our perception and in that - mental state, spiritual state, and religious beliefs.

Philosophical light reading...
If you want a read mind melt, I suggest you read the philosophical concept "Brain in a Vat "if you haven't already. It posits a very similar argument to the Matrix. Also a great offshoot of this is the Parable of the Cave. Get yourself a good massive book on philosophy if you find these interesting. I have a couple that will really get yourself questioning, and opening your mind.

Of course, such concepts can really mess with our perceptions and our existential mental stability - so try to come back to your reality often. I once had an existential breakdown in high school when I thought myself into a corner. So to speak. I try not to think too deeply about our being here, and try to focus on my experience - my reality - and live here. It's the only Here I've got.

I hope your Here is a good one :)

Many hugs!

FAQ: What do Ghosts Look Like?

Hello friends :) I want to first thank you for all your emails and well wishing - and of course the wonderful offers of prayers and help. They mean so much to me and keep me staying positive and motivated to continue sharing and reporting back to you all that I see in the weird world of the afterlife.


So what do ghosts look like? There's not just one format for a ghost, there are countless ways a spirit can manifest itself to people and mediums.


Just like you and me...

Some ghosts look just like the living - and can be almost impossible to distinguish from afar. Up close you can usually see little strange flaws - for example (but none are usual): no pupils, flawless skin, just a bit see through, or even something as huge as no legs but they are walking as if they do have legs. Sometimes they can be missing arms or their eyes are off colour - colours that are unnatural like violet or fluorescent colours. But from afar they can look just so normal it's freakier than the ones that don't.


"Patchy" or Phasing

Sometimes they are patchy, in a way that DVD's skip.. you know, freezing, jumping ahead.. interruptions in visual and audio consistency.. they don't flow quite right. They can be a still image for a few moments then move all of a sudden. I've asked these spirits many questions about this phasing, and I find that these spirits are the more preoccupied ones. Ones with unfinished business, ones with worries galore. Oh ghosts worry so much it's a wonder people call them "at rest".



See-Through People
Sometimes they are translucent. This is the one most people associate with ghosts, in popular culture, lore, etc - the see-thru spirits that look like they're made of cloud or smoke or like they're halfway here and halfway "there". In my experience these spirits are in the same preoccupied category as the patchy spirits. The less visible and consistent they are, the more distracted or apathetic they are.




Abominations and Caricatures

Sometimes they exaggerate their forms, or try to take on a very scary appearance. They use their appearance in order to communicate a point. Scary looking ghosts, obviously, are trying to scare you. Already you have that in your list of advantages: you know this is either a desperate being or a childlike one looking for mischief. When a spirit is outrageous looking, they want attention. When they are super understated (no face, no details etc) the beings are grudgingly communicating or they hate taking the shape of a human - they hate who their species was in life or in the after life. When a spirit takes on the shape of a known character (be it popular entertainment culture, historical figures, or figures from your past) - that is a communication in itself. I've heard of people seeing spirits in the form cartoon characters. Anyways, this sort of exaggeration or under exaggeration is common, and many spirits decide to communicate this way. Sometimes this means that a loved one can look like someone entirely different at first, which I can't tell you how frustrating it is... I mean you describe Amelia Earhart to a daughter of a recently dead person and they kinda think you're either crazy or PT Barnum. I try to stay away from describing celebrities until I've had enough chance to see if the spirit is communicating something through its form.



Invisible

Some spirits do not portray themselves visually in any way. Not to the eyes, and not to the 6th sense's "eye". Emotions, words, sensation, and concepts can flow freely from these spirits without any visual information what so ever. I find these spirits can be the older ones, the ones that have been dead so long they don't quite care about visual appearance, it can get in the way of pure communication. These spirits can also be babies that were either never born or died when they were so small they had no concept of character form. It takes a while generally for children to get a good self-concept visually, so this can range from 0-3 years old depending on the development of the child.



Balls of Light!

These are my favorite. The most beautiful and feel-good energies usually. On average, these spirits are fetuses, unborn babies - or babies that died very early on. They can look like soap bubbles filled with light - a beautiful rainbow ring in certain lighting. They float without purpose sometimes, but they can also float with a purpose - such as guiding someone away from harm, or guiding them to something important to their security, destiny, or just to help them out or make them laugh.

Orbs
Some spirits take on a very similar form to the balls of lights - and that is "Orbs". The balls of light can be put into this category, but I wanted to separate them as I personally see a big difference. Orbs aren't so soap-bubble, and they don't have to be lights. Most orbs are not lights, but they reflect light amazingly well. Photography can be used to capture them to readily than the human eye, as the flash creates enough light to exaggerate them into view. They don't have to be perfect circles, I have seen oblongs, egg shapes, even jagged shapes. They range in colour but most of them are grey: plain grey, grey blue, grey green. I've even heard they come in pink! Lol! Although I'm not surprised, spirits are quite versatile. I have not been able to find a common factor between all orbs, no average type. They can be any walk of life, not just human. They can be animals too.

Their Corpses
The spirits that freak me out the most in terms of appearance are the ones that take the shape of their death - exaggerated or realistic. They will mostly do this as a way to communicate their method of death - some see it as a badge of honor, a mark of ascension, or a cross that they bear. Some spirits see it as a way to communicate what horrors happened to them, maybe because they want some kind of understanding, maybe because they want vengeance, and sometimes they want you to tell their story. Empathy goes a long way in the Spirit world. I won't go into detail, you get the picture.

I will add more types of spirit appearances later, including specific examples and perhaps sketches. I wanted to publish this to let you know I'm still out there and still ready to share and let you in on the world we should all be able to see!
