So today I want to talk about ghosts or spirits. Specifically, spirits who “live” in old buildings. There is a difference between ghost and sprits and I’ll go into that in a bit.
As many of you know, I live in a small town and near a larger city that both have a mining history. Most of the buildings occupied by businesses were built in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. Most have been renovated, while some are vacant. There have been several mine disasters nearby where people perished. There is the famous Hillcrest Mine Disaster in 1926, about an hour or so away. 189 men died, leaving 130 widows and about 400 children. In 1902 in the same area another disaster where methane exploded and killed 128. And in the town I live in, Coalhurst, in 1935, 16 men perished and left behind 11 wives and 34 children. So energetically speaking, this area has a lot of spirits wandering around. If you are a regular listener, you may recall that I’ve already spoken about the spirits in my house in my third podcast, The Visits. It is not unusual for me to catch movement out of the corner of my eye on the street and see nothing there. This is called clairvoyance, the ability to see spirits. The Merriam Webster dictionary describes clairvoyance as the power or faculty of discerning objects not present to the senses. Some of the ways this can manifest are: Seeing flashes, sparkles or bubbles of light Seeing shadows out of the corner of your eyes You’ve seen movement past doorways and hallways You can see colored light or images when you close your eyes or meditate You notice orbs and smoke in photographs, video, bathwater, or on other reflective surfaces There are many others however these are the most common. Most people probably don’t realize that this is what they are experiencing. And if you do, know that you aren’t seeing things or imagining them. It is real and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Believe in yourself. There are a few differences between ghosts and spirits. Ghosts have a strong emotional tie to a place. Could be unfinished business or a person. Like the young boy at the store. If you feel sudden chills or smell a strange odor in the room, you may have a ghost lurking near. You might also have the sensation of being watched, you might hear strange voices or noises, and you might notice things moving in your peripheral. I have had most of these happen. The hanger that kept moving, the cigarette smells when one is near, the movement out of the corner of my eye. There are different kinds of ghosts but I’m not going to go into those. You can do some research and find out for yourself. Spirits on the other hand are able to travel and aren’t tied to one particular place. Spirits are more about the soul of the person. Like my grandmother visiting me in the hospital or my sister in my home. Spirits tend to be more peaceful and positive in their communication with us. This is why they tend to appear in butterflies, dragonflies or cardinals. Spirits are also strongly connected to coins. They will leave a coin for you to see. I once had a penny left in a room that had never had coins in it. I held it close to my heart and asked who had sent it. I heard my Dad’s voice say, “Dad”. There are different kinds of spirits; guardian angels, arch angels, spirit guides, ascended masters, loved ones, elemental spirits like fairies, gnomes and elves. All of which assist me in my animal communication sessions. So, getting back to my story, one such business I go to frequently is in one of those old buildings. The business owner had informed me that there were ghosts or spirits in the store. She would see them when she opened in the morning. She would say hello and go about her day. Only when the store was empty of customers would she see or hear them. One in particular was a young boy. He never bothered anyone, moved things or tried to scare people. He was just “there”. I imagine him looking like a Huck Finn character. One with a newsboy cap and suspenders. Around 8 or 10 years of age. The business owner has a board where people can leave their business cards and I had left some as well. One morning she came in and one of my business cards was on the floor. Just one. She picked it up and put it where it belonged. The next morning the same thing, just one card on the floor. This continued until she mentioned it to me the next time I came in. I got curious and delved into it. Turns out it was the young boy, whom the owner had seen upon occasion. This young boy wanted a dog. And who better to attract attention to but an animal communicator. Someone who may be able to help him out in getting his dog. I had a meditation session where I contacted the Universe to send a dog to this young boy who so obviously wanted one. I had no confirmation my message was received or followed through on. I just had to believe. The next time I went into the store I received my confirmation. The owner informed me that the young boy was still coming in however now she is hearing a chain rattle like ones that are used for dog leashes and collars. So he got his dog and I was happy to have been able to assist him in getting the dog he so desperately wanted. The business owner still hears and sees him occasionally and nothing else has happened with my cards since she told me about it. Update: I checked with the store owner recently and the young boy no longer visits.
