Am I experiencing paranormal presence?

Question

Ever since the age 5 up to age 9, I had lived in a small apartment in Irvine, California. I am sure that before us, people had lived there, but I don't know of any murders/deaths/or previous hauntings. When I did live there with my mother and brother, I believe I was experiencing paranormal presence. Almost every time I turned a corner in or out of my room, in or out of my mothers room, or just any corner, a purple shadow-like presence would turn up, and try and hide form me, but I would catch it in the corner of my eye. It was the shape of a basic adult male, but it had no face features. Now I am living in a condo in Tustin, California and I haven't been sensing as much, but I can feel presence in my room and other places when I am alone. I am going on twelve in thirteen days (July 17th, 2008) and I know that children can very well experience this. Please, if you know what is happening to me, tell me what I should be doing. I am not afraid of these presences, but I would like to know.

Answer 1

I know exactly what your experiencing. I have seen these type spirits all my life, and even more in the past five years.

What your experiencing is either a loved one, but I am very sure it's your spirit guide. I seen mine so many times, I would ask her questions, she answer me back, her name is Erica, and perhaps the same one I seen since I was four. Usually always there is no features on her face, that's because she is from a higher dimension.

This will become stronger at times on and off, once this spirit or guide connects with one of your senses, you will be able to see and communicate better. Usually once they know that you are sensitive, and that you can see them, then they will come to you all the more to communicate. Spirit guides usually sense and know how your spirit feels within. This could be the reason why your guide if that's who it is, is coming around or why you feel and see their energy, because your guide is concern and will be by your side looking over you. They will speak out loud or whisper your name, and or communicate telepathy. And if need to, your guide will comfort you with gentle back rubs, hold your hand, even hugs, usually while your a sleep.

This is NOT funny! If you believe in the Bible you must not pick and choose your characters, but rather believe in all. Therefore, to eliminate what you're experiencing you MUST take a look around your home and eliminate ALL that is or suggest to be "devil" items - ALL - don't box and store; box and trash 'em. Gone - out of your life. AT THE SAME TIME, you must repeat the words "Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ..." and especially every time you see a shadow or feel a presence. Say it loud and clear, over and over, like a chant. The presence will leave forever! These "shadows" do not enter our lives without permission and somehow you have given permission - don't let it worsen.

sometimes peaple are haunted instead of places.you mite have a priest to bless house and family or hold preyor meetings in house the more peaple the better and see it it provokes enything.

Answer 4

I would first confide these things that you now see and have seen to your parents or another trusted adult.  The next thing to do is to make lots and lots of photos when you feel the presence around you. You must be able to rule out any possible explaination of anything natural before you can consider it being anything else.  If you are able to get anything you think is abnormal, show it to your folks.  Since they are the homeowners, it would be up to them to grant permission for a formal investigation.  But the main thing for the time being is for you to not be afraid and make your photos and keep communication open with your parents.  

And a Happy Birthday a bit early to you!

Answer 5

Have you had an eye examination?  What type of lighting was in your apartment? Flourescent lighting has always caused a bit of a blur for me when I leave one room and enter another.  Paranormal recsearchers have yet to come up with definitive proof, so you may want to rule out eye isues or lighting before concluding that you had a "visitor".  Sometimes people can psych themselves up and almost talk themselves into feeling a presence.  If your eye exam comes back fine.... perhaps you are intuitive and have experienced paranormal events.  Great question kid.

Answer 6

Spirits of our loved one's and spirit guides are always around us and may try to stop you from seeing them incase they scare you-They only want to help you.

Those that see shadows are just not in tune with the energy. The spirit is on the wrong channel if you want to think of it like that lol. As you gain control or at the least grow stronger in your abilities the shadows will only happen when you are stressed or emotional, otherwise they show up clear as a bell.

If you have further questions feel free to email me.

Answer 7

"The corner of your eye" is where nerve endings to catch light are least dense.  Visual perception is extremely poor for images away from your direct line of sight.  You naturally want to see the thing straight on to get a better image.

When you note that it will "try to hide from me", that indicates that as you look at the spot where you percieve the image to be, the image will move away.  This is caused by an afterimage on your retina that remains from a previous exposure to light.  Try this, look at a space on the wall with a bright window or lamp just at the corner of your eye.  Squeeze your eyes shut.  Can you still make out a pattern of dard and light?  Those are afterimages caused by your nerves prior exposure.  It is very easy to misinterpret these afterimages if (1) they are in the corner of your eye where the perception in the weakest, and (2) you are apt to believe an explanation that involves something other than natural causes.

Please consider the possibility that this is a common and natural perception.

Answer 8

From what you have indicated you really haven't seen anything.  A shadow in the corner of your eye can be nothing more than someone just seeing things that aren't there.  Your brain interprets it as the shape of a human because it's adapting that which is seen with a familiar pattern.  Now, if you looked up and something was there for an extended period of time that you could look at and examine, then we might be on to something.  But there is no reason to think phantoms and shadows are anything paranormal.

"Feeling" something doesn't really count either.  It could be nothing more than your imagination.  Sorry to disappoint you, but I think you're just projecting a blue mood onto your surroundings.
