This Too Shall Pass...

Higher Powers change events all the time to put right what goes wrong. There is guidance in all things. We go through phases - forgive, forget, let go.

New opportunities come to put things back in proper order. When everything seems to go wrong, miraculously, everything starts to change for the better.

Magical Practice

Indian rituals, ceremonies, and religious observances, tobacco is the unifying thread of communication between humans and the spiritual powers. The spirits are said to be extremely fond of tobacco and that the only way they could get it was from the Indians, either by smoke from a pipe or by offerings of dry tobacco.

Tobacco was placed at graves as an offering to the departed spirit. Requests to elders to relate oral traditions or other special knowledge were accompanied with a gift.

"Tobacco is in the east on the medicine wheel and has the quality of communication with Spirit. Tobacco smoke is visible breath that takes prayers to the Great Spirit. Tobacco also has the quality of connecting people with each other and bringing peace.

Tobacco offered directly or as smoke allows for communication with the spirit. As a Mesquakie told a student seeking to understand Native American culture: 'We use it (tobacco) in ceremonies; we put it in the fire, and then we can talk to the spirits.

Secondary methods involve those making the offering to bring the tobacco smoke into themselves and then blow it towards the spiritual recipient. The sharing of the smoke between the one making the offering and the spirit receiving it creates communion between the two. The sacred smoke may also be spread over oneself or over objects and persons as a blessing."

ORBS - spirit lights

ORBS -

In theory orbs are a sphere or globe of light energy. Most are uasally described as milky-white and many other colors.

You can see orbs in the photographs taken between 8 and 9pm.

DAIMONS

On a clear night I sensed a presence beside me and took a photograph. Clearly seen in the tobacco smoke something materialized.

This could be one of any of a wide range of lesser intermediary spirits between their world and the physical world.

Demons play no role in neo-Pagan Witchcraft.

Demon is derived from the Greek term daimon, or divine power, fate, or god.

Daimons were intermediary spirits between man and the gods. A guardian daimons shared advice and ideas. It was considered lucky to have one for guidance and protection.

Ghost-busting

I saw my first episode of Ghost Lab and was less than impressed.

Can you inagine when you are most active someone entering your home with all their gizmos and gadgets and demand their wants- Do this! Do that! Appear and preform for some sort of amusement.

Better yet, command you move away from your residence. I don't believe you'd be too happy.

If you demand something from anyone in the earthly world you'd recieve the same
response - nothing.

I'm not going to argue if Spirits are real. To me it's ridiculeus to deny their existance. There is more than enough documented proof Spirits have appeared over and over in many forms. Spirits are just part of the all mighty universe. Not separate from.

If you are going to so-call Ghost-bust, demanding things from them as if it is your right, my message is to remember your manners and have something worthwhile to say or ask for.

Have a meeting of the minds.

Treat the Spirit you want to see or hear from as on old friend visiting or making first time aquaintance.

Don't be rude when requesting a sight of an appritation. You might be granted a glimpse between the veil of the seen and unseen worlds. A Spirit may whisper the answer sought softly in your ear.

PYROMANCY

Pyromancy- noting shapes in burning flames.

Often spirit is said to manifest through FIRE, as fire is the closest element to pure energy.

Be seated. Stare deeply into and fixedly into the glow, counting your heartbeats under-breath. Do you see what I see?

Man's Immortal Soul

None of us can travel too far in life and remain a stranger to death. Death is something we all have to face. The terminal departure causes us pain, and grief that tears us apart.

When we stand at the casket of a loved one who has died, we weep and the heart drowns in the depths of sorrow. The idea that death is absolute end of existence scares many people, because our time together is over, but what if your loved one wasn't really gone forever?

Death is not the end but, rather a passage to the afterlife.

Humans possess an immortal soul is a doctrine shared in many faiths. Almost all people since the beginning of the human race have believed in some form of afterlife. Only in recent times and only in Western countries, have a large number of people maintain death is oblivion.

What if invisible entities capable of surviving the death of the physical
body wander about on their own time line. No more good-byes or
separation for your loved one is close by.

I believe people live, even though they die a physical death. I am a believer in Spirits. I have a definite belief in existence of an afterlife, because I have had experiences involving manifestations. I simply know.

When you are sad, lonely and feeling disconnected from loved ones who have crossed over to the other side simply have a conversation with them. Make time for them in your daily life to bring peace to your grieving heart.

You and you alone are the link between the living and of those the spirit world. Talk to Spirit. Tell your loved one about what you feel is important. Spirit will answer with a personal message so you will know they are near. Close your eyes, picture the person you miss standing before you and say:

"______________, I am lost with out you. Please put your arms around me and hold me in your loving embrace. Whisper to me, let me know your here."

Imagine the contentment that will result when dead loves are included in your life on the earthly plane.
