Shadow people

[Alexjstrandberg]

Hey,

Me and my girlfriend have been seeing what you might describe as shadow people out the corner of our eyes. Some times its a glimpse for a split second, sometimes it is a lot longer. They always appear to be moving and hiding somewhat. Every time we see them it's always followed by a cold chill that runs down the back of our spines.

Any ideas on what they are? good or bad?

thanks

Alex

Everyone got that in their periphery. Nothing to worry about. Just your mind playing you a trick.

Send them some love.

If they send a shiver down your spine then they could be bad indeed, but what they are I'm not quite sure of. They could be negative entities just following you around, or you could be picking up on residual energy in the area. You could just be extra sensitive to things around you or it could be a trick of the mind. What do they feel like to you though? Your intuition will tell you if they are good or bad.

Whatever they are though, just being aware and raising your own vibration is the solution.

What EXACTLY do you mean with "raising your own vibration"?

[Parthon]

Haha, I was thinking exactly the same thing while I was writing it, it sounds so out there and weird.

For myself, I think vibration is like a spiritual reflection of your current state of being - feelings, thoughts and emotions. Love, compassion and courage "raise" it by moving it towards more positive states, while fear, hate and animalistic desires lower it towards more negative states.

The impact of your vibration or spiritual state is that you bring more of that kind of influence into your life. If you hate or fear people you will attract hate and fear into your life, in the same way that courageous and loving acts will bring more love and courage into your life. I believe that people really prefer love over hate, and compassion over fear, so being positive is "better" in that regard.

How? I'm still working that out, but it's a combination of thinking positively, sending love to people, acting courageously and giving up things like negativity and fear.

Nah, we actually see them still, clearly in front of us in our bedroom as well. A lot of the times they move towards the bed and make movements and sounds. No we aren't insane or have any mental disorder ha ha

What do they look like?

[Alexjstrandberg]

The ones we see when we walk around at night are complete dark figures that dash from place to place. Feels like they are stalking us.

The ones we see in the room are almost exactly like the energy/astral vampire that Erin described in one of her blog posts-dark figures with cloaks, some have glowing eyes, others have long long nails.

Have you tried to photograph them?

[Alexjstrandberg]

it usually happens when I fall asleep and my girlfriend sees them. They run away whenever I wake up for some reason. So I don't know how well photograph will work. We don't have a camera but we could try using the camera on my phone.

Hey Alex.
It all depends what view you have of the world. You can approach the world as good and bad, or there is the other view that everything is good, the 'bad' is just injured. (aka Hitler wasn't just 'bad' he was injured and therefore created suffering for others). I think the same goes with energy or spirits. Someone recently recommended a book to me because I am frightened of the spirit world and have needed help confronting that since it is possible for me to see it. Just reading the book and practicing what she suggests can really transform your whole life, not just spirits around you. You could say its a 'practical' approach to raising your vibration if you have trouble imagining doing so.
Anyway, the book is called 'Places that Scare You' by Pema Chodron
Amazon.com: The Places that Scare You: A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times (Shambhala Classics): Pema Chodron: Books
she is a buddhist nun in a Canadian monastery on the east coast.

also if you and your girlfriend fear these shadow people, you give them more power as you intensify yourself as a target with fear. If the fear is gone, no more target. Of course it takes practice, I'm still working on it :P

[Alexjstrandberg]

agreed. We both have pretty high consciousness and a great view on the world which is probably why we get attacked a lot.

My girlfriend is still a little freaked out and I'm fine with them. I'm more curious than anything about them.

Reading this has helped make a lot of sense of things, particularly the protecting yourself while astral projecting.

He mentioned that strange, unexplainable fatigue and lose of vitality can stem from having your energy drained by an energy feeder. I haven't had a good night sleep of have had energy for the past two years and that's right around the time I started getting deep into meditation. It's been rather annoying not having much energy to do anything. I have tried working out more, eating right and nothing has helped. I even thought it was my bed so I went out and spent a good chunk of money on one of those foam mattresses and nothing helped.

I'm gonna try his energy raising system and see if that helps. I got a consultation from a guy who specializes in getting rid of those energy drainers and he was shocked at how much I was being drained. He did some work but I didn't notice any difference so hopefully this will.

ohhh interesting take!
i'm not familiar with the astral world as i've never completely gone astral.
hmm. well, you don't have to believe this, but well i asked my reiki practitioner about people who tend to drain your energy. she just said raising your vibration stops attracting those people so the more work you do on yourself in terms of spiritual aura the less you will bump into those people in general. i think the same goes with spirits. i don't think you can get 'rid' of these spirits.. they will always exist but if you raise your vibration you get on to a different frequency and they just don't exist on that frequency. i believe this is what erin talks about to avoid 'negative' spirits in the astral world. (check her blog)

if you'd like heal their energy.. or i suppose prevent them before you learn to raise your vibration i recommend burning sage -- it really makes a huge difference!! on your house and yourself.

I've heard alot obout shadow people, I've seen a few, corner of my eye.
My friend had an experience with one...

I would reccomend, setting up a webcam just to see if you can catch one.

[Elfwing]

I can't say I've seen any, but my friend I think has encountered them. He's fascinated by them.

[daj]

I've seen them a few times when I was younger. They are attracted to your fear, as they feed off of it. I would always see them after reading Carlos Castaneda's shamanism books late at night. The books startled me a bit before I would go to sleep and they'd put my mind into a "fear of the unknown" type of state.

I stopped seeing them once I discovered how to raise my vibration. I raised it by laughing, smiling, and breathing deeply (doing this sends endorphins rushing to your brain to combat the fear/negativity), whenever I notice I'm falling into a state of uncertainty/fear.

I never see them around anymore, or maybe their still around, but can't bother me as I'm not within their frequency range? Whenever you see them with your girlfriend, just laugh, smile, or tickle each other to raise the vibration of you both, and the room your in. I think that would help.


Here's also a few affirmations I've found from various sources to help raise your vibration:

"I am free of fear."

"I willingly and openly let go of all my fears, imbalances, and attachments every second of ever day."

"I ask the light that animates me and gives life to all things living to help me to protect myself from the influences of any imbalanced energy, thought form, and lost souls, from any source, at all times."

"I ask the spiritual light that I am and the light that is all things living to permeate and fill my entire Energy Body and Soul with Unconditional Love & Light, and for this Light to gradually permeate, fill and expand throughout my entire physical body, to help me to heal myself both spiritually and physically, thus restoring my consciousnness/soul back into it's healthy and balanced state of being - a perfect reflection of the spiritual light that I am."

"I invoke Universal Law and declare all false contracts with the government, the CIA, military industrial complex and it's subsidary groups, negative reptilians, humanoids, and ET races NULL and VOID. I cancel them throughout time and probability. All implants & devices related to these contracts have to be removed from my physical and etheric bodies ASAP(As Soon As Possible)."

I had a similar experience with a being that felt like it was composed of cold fire

It was a dark and windy night,
I was meditating [in a lazy sleep inducing way] and hit a point where I was on the brink of total unconsciousness

Carried by the wind came a kind of energy being that passed through the room and took a particular interest in me

It was like being invaded by a being that burnt fiercely like fire but without any warmth. Kinda like being raped by some weird creature of the ether

I couldn't fight it off but knew at the same time that it couldn't really hurt me either [immortal soul and all that]. After a while it rushed off

It didn't feel anything like human, there was an intelligence there but not like an injured child that was lashing out, more like a spider hunting it's prey. It just didn't see me as a worthwhile delay of it's journey

Twas an interesting experience
