I am going to preface this with my family has a history of seeing/hearing spirits – not everyday – just one offs – visits
My mom, having horrible pains while pregnant with me(1980), so she laid down and a woman in flapper outfit approach her bed side and told her it would be okay. She then left the room. My mom followed, nothing was there.
My Maternal grandmother, while taking a nap heard children running around the house and when she went to get up the bed sheets got pulled tight then a child sat on the edge of the bed and called her mom…no miscarriages. No children home.
My cousin, male, same side of the family has told stories of him being tortured by being hung from his thumbs as a very very young child- he never has been tortured but I was told its a Chinese torture method. He is in his 50s now, but has heard many people around his home who are not there. Example, children rushing down the stairs at Christmas but his kids were asleep. Another, His children have asked him to come to their room to tell the man to stop shaking his bed. (LIVED IN AN OLD VICTOTIAN HOME THAT USED TO HOUSE TUBERCULOSIS PATIENTS-CIVIL WAR HOME)
My brother younger, swears up and down he was killed in a fire in a past life. He hated having bedrooms upstairs as a kid. Also has heard people running around the house with no one home. Doesn’t speak of any other occurances.
Now, myself 40/M. I’ve never seen a spirit but have felt deep feelings like someone is watching me. Like the feeling of fear. Imagine someone breaking into your home, that adrenaline-slightly scared feel hits me like a truck. But when I tell myself someone is just visiting the feeling subsides. i have also felt a visit in a calm way like someone walking thru the door with a friendly hello. But I have never seen a spirit. I can read people really well emotionally. I can tell when people aren’t saying something, or when they are mad or angry, or excited or “poker facing” me. Probably why I love to play poker because I can feel all the emotion around the tables.
My son, when a toddler(3yo)described a best friend George. He talked about George as if he was real. Described his house, said it was in the country, color of the house, talked about smoking at the table with him while having coffee. No one in his immediate family smoked for him to talk about coffee and cigarettes at age 3. He is 9 now, with no.memory of talking about his best friend. It’s funny to him now. We all laugh about his friend George. But I compartmentalize the thought of maybe he had a past life. Similar to maybe my cousin who spoke of being tortured.
Just wondering, are abilities pasted down a family line? Am I dreaming up my emotions? Or am I picking up a different wave length?
