quote:Has anyone ever try to actually talk to them, rather than walk away from them / fight them ?

With my experience no. I never really thought about it until I was about to move and then never got the chance. I do think that it was something in the house as there were some other things that happened that were odd. But the entity never confronted me directly, so I never really got the chance to talk to it. It did not seem to have negative intentions. The times that it would do something were rare and to my knowledge harmless.

Hmmm ... he never actually said he lives with his mom, so who knows. Maybe he just likes spending time with his mom because after all she is his mom.

If you do live with her, try to move out on your own. That will definately relieve some pressure. Try your best to avoid any religious topics when around her.

In recent years my parents have become more active in the Christain church. Lucky for me they have not pressured me with it. They ask me to go to church with them, which I usually decline. They have not pushed it beyond that. I am not sure if they are afraid to actually push the issue and ask for fear of what I might say. I am just glad they don't push it on me.

Knowledge is power.

I think it is foolish to just tell people to not have sex until marriage and leave it at that. I also believe in free choice, but how is one to truly make a good choice for oneself if they do not have the knowledge about it? Education is the key. People have to be willing to look beyond the taboo and get the real facts. I also think that society needs to look beyond the taboo of masterbation [:O] and accept it as part of natural sexual exploration. Not only is it important in exploring your own sexuality (because if you do not know how to please yourself, how do you expect someone else too??) it can really help deal with those raging hormones during teen years when hormones speak much louder than any logical brain.

I have had a few brief experiences with a shadow entity, for lack of a better word. This was on the physical. It never approached me. A few times I would just catch a shadowy presence out of the corner of my eye, but when I looked nothing was there. This happened a few times, usually weeks or months apart from each other. Then one night I was laying in bed and happened to look at the bedroom door which was open. I saw a dark human figure walk by. When I asked the other person in the house if it was her she said she did not get up out of bed at that time. I have since moved and have not seen any more shadow entities, so it must have been localized to that house. I have never done any drugs, except alcohol every now and then but I was not drinking at the time of the occurrences.

I do not think that just because something is dark or shadowy that it means that it is negative. We fear that which we do not understand and that fear can cloud one's judgement.

This can be very annoying. The only thing I know to help is to practice keeping your mind quiet throughout the day, not just when you want to meditate, project, etc. Try to keep your mind on what you are doing and be aware of what is going on around you. When you notice it wondering off or starting its own conversations immediately stop it and focus again on what you are doing. This can be hard at first, but after awhile it will become habit.

I am not sure how to describe this, but hopefully you will understand. You think much faster than you can form words. Unless you are writing or talking, try not to think in words. Try to keep your mind from "talking" to you with words but instead just think. I can feel a big difference when I think in words and when I silence the words and just think. Practicing this will help as well.

Something else that helps along with the other suggestions, is to cut back on the amount of TV and radio/CDs/music. Just try to cut back on all the noise. Don't listen to the radio/music/etc in the car or whenever. Get use to silence. You might be amazed at how much you have something on just for background noise. When I first started this practice I was.

Is this a promotion for a new reality tv show?

Welcome, Leah! That is a cool skill you have. Do you know exactly how you are able to communicate with animals?

All things must feed off of other things in order to live. That is the way it is on Earth. The only way to escape this is to not eat and die, but that is hardly the solution. I see nothing wrong with eating animals, but I am still kind of uneasy about it. What is wrong is mistreating animals in order to eat them by forcing them to live in terrible conditions and then making their death an unpleasant ordeal by hanging them upside down and slitting their throats. Animals should be honored, not mistreated.

Welcome to the forums! I must say that is a really cute name. I like it. SqueezetheShaman hehehe

My methods are nothing fancy, so I am sure others can give you alot more help and point you to some good references. It all depends on what I want to do, but basicly I just lay down, or get in any comfortable position, relax, and clear my mind. Then either I just enjoy the silence or do whatever it is I wish to do; energy work, try to project, just see what happens, etc.

The way I read it, your third eye is able to pick up the energies of the aura. It works with your eyes to create a visual interpretation of the aura. I have seen my own aura around my hand. When you see it you will know. It will flare up a bright color. It is hard to say about the green that you are seeing. I can see something similar too and I am not sure if it is slightly picking up the aura or just an after image.

As for proof of seeing auras, what kind of proof do you want? How can you proof something like this?

The only relevence of a piece of paper is to look good on a resume and to impress other people. It is no guarantee that you retained any knowledge beyond being able to pass some tests. I can go to the library and learn everything that a doctor of mecicine, physics, or any other field knows. The only difference would be that I did not pay any money to learn and that I could not legally practice my knowledge on other people. It does not mean that they are smarter than I am, or Ceriel N.

I do not know how it is in Romania, but here in the US, especially in the South in what is known as the Bible Belt there is a church on almost every street corner. Though all are Christian each holds a little different view on their religion. I guess that is why they are separate from other churches. You could call them sects, but I would not to their face. lol

You did answer my question so thank you. []

I do not understand the difference between a ouja board and a pendulum. Why can you not access your higher self with a ouja board? Why can you not access less than honorable spirits with a pendulum?

This reality is a lie. I am after teh truth! I live the truth but unfortunately this world is one of illusion.

I think the way we currently live life, as a society in general, is a lie and an illusion, but I do not think that physical life in itself is.

Will this hold up in a court of law?

Yes I raped and killed her but it is ok. You see before we were born we both agreed that this would happen. She wanted me to do it to her. I had to do it because it was already planned out. She was a willing participant.

quote:Another question. The Bible says to attend mass weekly to fufill a sacrement and confession etc... Does that apply to you people that found your own god?

I think that this was said because at the time most people could not read and/or did not have access to the religious texts. No printing press at that time ment few books. So the only way for people to hear the texts was to go to the temple, church. Today things are different, most people have a copy of atleast one religious text if not more and they can read them.

God is not only in a building certain times during the week. God is everywhere and in everything. So if you can study the text anywhere and God is everywhere, why confine yourself to a buidling to find God?

I personally think that "under God" never should have been added. The original author was a Christian preacher and he did not want it on there. I think he understood that government and religion should be separate and that in keeping them separate it in no way lessons your own beliefs or moral code. But we cannot change the past, only learn from it.

There is a little bit of a difference between the pledge and money. With a pledge you are reciting an oath, making a commitment. The current oath pledges "under God" which people may not wish to do. Since this nation gives all its people the right to worship and belive however they choose it should not make people pledge to being under any god/ds/dess. Money is not an oath. How often does anyone really look at money or the 'In God We Trust". You are not commiting to anything except a financial transaction. I read, and I do not remember from who but it could have been a court, that it is ok to be on our money because it is part of the US heritage.

I am not really sure about the current situation. Like I said, I do not think it should be in it, but removing it will cause a lot of tension. I think that people need to realize that it is not an attack on any religion, the government is not trying to destroy any religion, and it really should in no way effect your own religious beliefs in any way. If your whole religious system is destroyed because of this, then maybe you needed a new religion anyway. The government can bare no religious symbols, but the people in it can still be religious and act according to their religious and moral codes. The government distancing itself from religious promotion is not hurting religion but giving the people more freedom to worship as they choose and feel more comfortable in doing so.

Not all Christians believe that Jesus is the same as God. Many see him as a separate entity but still of God, the Son Of God. I use to be Christian and I have been to many different Christian churches. The perception of Jesus varies.

Well one of my main concerns is not so much about getting fat from sugar but Diabetes. I do not now if consuming large amounts of sugar your whole life will cause you to get it, but I do know that once you have it you have to cut it out of your diet and get exercise. Since both my dad and his mother have developed it it has made me think about the disease. I figure that if cutting back on sugar and getting exercise is important once you have the disease, then maybe doing it when you don't have it will help prevent you from getting it.

Thanks for mentioning honey, Links. It is a wonder thing.

Thanks. I have heard all kinds of answers but no one has really been sure. I did a google search too but found nothing to answer my question.

Pay attention to this area. Maybe work on the chakra, or maybe you need to work on your other chakras. Something wants you to pay attention to this area so pay attention to this area and see what it is that you need to be aware of.

I cannot answer your queston, but if you do not get any help I can email your problem to some relatives who use to be into cb radio. They might be able to help.

I wonder if ill ever see a wiccan/soon-wiccan who is not interested in magic

Besides,whats so wrong with satanic and harmful magic?

People fear that which they do not understand.

I am currently reading Animal Speak by Ted Andrews. It is a very good read so far. I have discovered a lot. Assuming you like nature, then you might like this book.

Accept it and go with it then they start. Do not fear it. Look at it as a gift.

I just thought everyone should know the End Days started October 3! Yes I was surprised too, but all the prophets agree. Today I was standing in line at Kmart waiting to buy some new pants and I looked over at a magazine and there it was, bold and clear as day. Of coarse I think this is the same mag that said it was the end of the world on new years every year for the past ten years so ... I decided to go ahead and buy the pants just incase we are all still around long enough for me to have a need to wear them. []
