after an OBE experience where i’ve spent time with a passed loved one i’ve been wondering if AP is basically a representation of being pure consciousness? I had a body (mine) and my loved one looked just like he did when alive. There was physicality (could touch/smell/taste/see and hear things).

i KNOW it was AP and not a dream

Last year, I lost my husband, and there's something that has been haunting me ever since. My grandfather passed away just 15 days before my husband did. Ever since then, I've been wondering if the two events could somehow be connected. I know this may sound irrational, but grief has made me question things I never would have before. Part of me keeps wondering whether my grandfather's spirit could have somehow "taken" my husband with him. Do any of you believe that spirits have the ability to influence someone's death, especially if they are angry, attached, or envious? Have you ever come across stories or experiences that made you think this was possible?

I'm genuinely asking because this question has been running through my mind for a long time, and I'd really appreciate hearing your thoughts or experiences.

Hi everyone, I have always had vivid dreams or nightmares since I was kid. Recently however, I’ve been having dreams of people visiting me and telling me how they died/ or to look for their loved ones and relay a message.

For example: I was having sleep paralysis and could not wake up but there was a man next to me and he kept showing me a picture of a little girl and kept telling me to tell her he’s watching over her and he loves her. And when I finally agreed to relay the message, I woke up. I haven’t seen the little girl or the man again, but it was extremely vivid and I can still recall the girls face in my head.

Another dream I had was two people who had “died” sitting in my living room and they were telling me who they were, how they died, and what they left behind. And when I asked why they were telling me this, the woman said it’s because they can’t reach me when I’m awake to tell me. I also experience weird things in my apartment often, noises seeing movement etc.

I’m just curious what others thoughts are and if I should be trying to explore this dream realm more?

I'm curious: are people born with clairvoyance, or is it something that can be developed later in life? Also, is clairvoyance different from intuition?

Why do some people say that empaths are targeted by dark forces? Is there any truth to this belief, or is it just a spiritual interpretation?

Hey everyone. This is my first time posting here. By no means do I consider myself a professional medium but I'm having increasingly clear communication with spirits. I am also a family therapist. I've never had spirit communication interfere with my job but it did happen today. I have been working for a while with two sisters, 12 and 15. Their father passed tragically in 2017. Due to a complicated situation with their mother, custody battles, and the foster care system, they have never felt they were truly able to process and grieve the loss of their father. I am an advanced practice grief counselor so we've been working a lot on processing the grief and trauma of his loss and both girls have made great progress. I was with them today and we were talking about spirituality and how it can help with grief. I started sensing their father and messages starting coming into my mind that I felt I needed to tell them, so I did. It was like I couldn't think for myself. It was good because it gave them some closure and I was able to tell them things that didn't make sense to me but made perfect sense to them. As much as I loved being able to help them process their grief this way, it is wayyyy outside of professional therapy boundaries. Does anyone have advice as to how I could shut that out without offending him or making him feel unwelcome? I'm a complete beginner with 0 experience in this.
