@kudra What a fascinating and scary set of experiences! I think @jeanne-mayell is right in that you clearly have untapped psychic abilities. I think it is really interesting to read how you handled/analyzed the experiences over the 10 years, making connections with this figure and the deaths in your orbit. I am sorry for the loss of your brother and can only imagine how frightening it must have been to see that death figure go through you, realizing it meant someone close to you.
I also find it interesting that you somehow blocked it after that and can tell it to go away now (or that you are not ready to see it again.) Others may have some good advice for you here on shielding yourself, setting psychic boundaries, etc. I do believe you can set those boundaries with the spirit world while you learn more and work out how this ability (and others abilities you may have) can be used in a way that is helpful/useful to you and others while also protecting yourself.
There are some great threads here that talk about shielding under the How To Cope and Even Thrive in Difficult Times topic:
Do People tell You You are Too Sensitive Let's Talk About That
What if you get sick from giving readings, giving psychotherapy or any form of holistic therapy, energy work, medicine, or just helping others?
Hope you find these helpful!
@cc21 I did take that sensitivity test the other day! I scored 15 or 16.
I'm not sure what I did to invite the dark figure, maybe it is someone I knew once or something other beyond my comprehension trying to wake me up. I was told once to tell spirits they were unwelcome if I didn't want them around. They seem to listen to me, at least for now lol. If I ask spirit for information, they tend to give me answers I need to hear. Sometimes, they approach on their own to give me a message. I have a white figure that showed up after my mother died two years ago. I was in my kitchen days after her death and there it was standing right at my side. I told it that I knew it was there and it shows up often. Not sure if it is my mother or maybe someone she sent to help me in life. I don't really feel like it is her energy.
That dark figure never frightened me, I just didn't want to hear about the deaths. At this point in my life I am finally finishing my degree that I have been pursuing while working full time. Because of the demands on my free time, I haven't been able to pursue working on my abilities. However, that shouldn't be a problem in a few months. Sometime this summer I plan to join on of the classes offered here and hopefully one day get up the nerve to join a RTFN with everyone. But it's time to work with what I've got whatever it is. Spirit has been tapping me on the shoulder for a long time.
I appreciate the links and advice for shielding because I do believe that is important when working with spirit.
Not sure where to put this, so here goes my story. This morning as I was just coming awake, I was told that a good friend of my husband, who died 6 months ago, had died from a heart attack. Wow. This has never happened before. It also felt like the message was from my husband, in his voice. Not sure what to make of this. Thanks, Pat.
Not a death prediction but a vision:
Thinking on Gene Hackman. I see him in his doorway and there is an angel coming to gather him. Blond, male, purple and black tunic, gold gladiator sandals. He's got a sword. Looks like a Tarot Card. I then see Gene in a corroder led by the angel. His wife enters from the right. I see him slightly ahead of her. He is "paving the way" and has a small smile on his lips. I'm not sure if he knows she is there. He holds a protective feeling toward her. I see him 'quietly" restored. I sense silence at the end of life but calm once passed. A feeling of calm and quiet. See a professional picture of him smiling. It covers the Vision.
40 years ago, my Mom shared that she knew when someone was going to pass because their faces would look kind of melty and they would pass soon after. At first she thought it was just her eyes playing tricks but the pattern continued. It upset her so much that she asked God to take the “visions” away. That was the end of it. Death visions come to me a few different ways.
