The majority of Spirit activity that people experience is not of a negative nature, but because people lack the knowledge and understanding of how Spirit actually works, people’s views are often based upon programmes like the ‘Most Haunted’, and naturally, they assume that all Spirit activity is bad.

If you are experiencing Spirit activity hopefully the following possible scenarios will help you to understand what may be happening in your home and the fear factor will subside, giving you more control over the situation.

• A new born baby attracts a lot of attention from the Spirit World, and as a consequence activity can intensify, especially if the family has pet(s). The Spirit person while alive may not have liked cats, dogs etc and fear that the pet may harm the baby intentionally/unintentionally in some way.

• The Spirit person is a close relative or friend and is drawing close to let the family members know they are safe and well. However, the family is frightened by the activity and it intensifies as the Spirit person tries to draw even closer to try and tell them that there is nothing to fear!

• Something in the home has changed that the Spirit person does not like

• The Spirit person:
o May need help, often to explain what has happened to them.

o Is drawn to the family because of the bonds of love there.
o The family triggers happy memories.
o May feel safe in the family home because they themselves are lonely and are just seeking companionship.
o May believe they are protecting the family or a specific family member
• In extreme cases the Spirit person may be trying to warn the person about a situation that needs to be resolved or avoided.

• Everyone is psychic to a degree, and no matter how much you try to dismiss your psychic senses as coincidences, or hope they will stop and go away, you will always be susceptible to being aware of Spirit in one form or another. So it is better to understand your psychic senses so that you control it, rather than having your psychic ability control you.

• Assuming the Spirit activity you are experiencing is not of the negative kind (see article: What is negative Spirit?), often by purely acknowledging their existence is enough to stop the activity. However, if the activity still continues you may need to identify who they are and why they are making a nuisance of themselves.

• The person who is experiencing the increase in Spirit activity has always been aware of Spirit in one form or another, and now their Spirit Guide is drawing close to motivate them to investigate Spiritualism further.

• The person may be going through a particular difficult phase in their life and Spirit are making their presence known to bring reassurance and comfort.

Spirit communicators/guides work through the mind using a telepathic link, and they can also influence our physical energy creating a false impression. For instance, a feeling of someone is touching your hair, or standing behind you. Spirit are a form of pure ‘thought energy’ they do not have a physical form and therefore cannot actually physically touch you, but they can interfere with your physical body energy, a bit like a signal distorting your TV picture, or radio station.

TIP: Whatever you religious beliefs are always ask for protection, albeit from God, Jesus, Spirit Guides/Helpers, guardian angels, or loved ones you trust who have died. Be firm and tell Spirit if their activity is scaring you they must stop it, if they are good Spirit they will understand. However, a word of caution, if the activity is a result of negative behaviour the Spirit can easily deceive you, this is where Mediumistic development training will help you deal with the situation and correctly identify the unwanted activity as good or bad Spirit(s).
