Recently passed father appears in dream and yells at me to stop looking for him.

I have a history of having spontaneous lucid dreams at about a frequency of once a month. Normally, I’ll notice that something is off about the reality I’m in and I’ll suddenly be able to control my dream, at least for a few minutes. This one began that way…

Anyways, I remember I was talking to someone when these red streaks started appearing on my skin. That person said I really need to see a doctor but I didn’t feel it was so urgent yet. I showed him an example of a streak (on my wrist where I had surgery several months ago in real life which left a scar) and at that time, I saw the face of the person I was talking to. It was my dad and his facial expression seemed happy. He was also wearing one of his favorite maroon sweaters.

I suddenly realized that my dad had died earlier this month and this couldn’t be real. Usually, this would result in a lucid dream but I then suddenly hear my dad yelling at me in a demonic voice saying “don’t look for me!” and it jolted me wide awake. Keep in mind I had been reading Christina Rasmussen’s book “Where did you go” and had been doing the first exercise for about a week without much success so yes, I had been trying to look for him at the time.

The second voice wasn’t your dad. The first person, was. The second sounds like a trickster taking advantage to be hurtful. So, don’t assume your father said the second thing.

Give him space. The least you can do is respect that. Pray for him and elevate him. But he will come to you when he is ready. Dying has always been more selfish for the living and we can anchor spirits by accident with our meddling. Giving spirits the space to explore their afterlife and go through their motions is exactly what they should be doing. I know when I die I’d like to be left alone for a little awhile. There is too much work that will need to be done that can’t be done with people constantly pulling, tugging and calling. Be respectful of what he asks.

Edit: new mediums please leave your dead alone for at least a year!

Wow, do you have any idea why he would try to scare you out of looking for him?
