How-lee snit! WTF was that!!!!!!!! Paranormal believers ONLY?

Question

ok that was STRANGE. Ive always believed in Ghosts but usually when I see one theyre, like, normal, human, characteristic, etc. If theyre not then I can sense them in the room without seeing it...

but I just looked across the room and saw this light orange...thing...in the air...I dont know what the heck it was, it wasnt bright like an orb, but definitely an energy mass of some sort...about half the size of the sofa and just hovering there.

And its SO weird...I know Im perfectly sane(well, clinically anyway, lol), but all night I could swear Ive been seeing just the barely edge of something passing...like a person thats there but doesnt want me to know theyre there, or Ive been sensing someone looking over my shoulder too but I look and theyre gone.

THEN...about 10 minutes ago...I heard clear as a bell my mom calling me...she has a distinctive voice, there is no way it wasnt her...but I went back to see what she wanted and shes sound asleep.

WTF is going ON here???!!!

Answer 1

Welcome to my world. :)

Seriously, I couldn't tell you what the orange thing is except that it's very obviously someone trying to get your attention. Archangel Raphael often shows himself to me as a spot of tree green, in much the same manner you experienced.

Answer 2

Sounds like an orb;

also known as light bodies.

Not a ghost.

This could be a case of a spirit watching over you and/or your mother and when hearing your mom call to you they were trying to get you to check on her. She may be sick. This has happened to me before for about a year with my daughter until we found out she would stop breathing in her sleep. She is OK now. But I would hear her call me and I would just peak in on her not actually check her breathing. Once we discovered this problem she had the calling stopped.

I just posted this to another person who saw a ball like light/energy source.  I have copied it below for you.  As to your mom's calling you, folks sometimes can call out or speak in their sleep.  It is quite possible your mom was having a dream that could have involved you and spoke or called your name.  She might or might not have any recollection of having the dream so don't make a final conclusion on that part.

For the rest:  I have woken up in the middle of the night to observe a ball of light in my own bedroom. Upon describing it to a friend they directed me to some sites on a phenomena called "ball lightening".

Currently, there is some controversy over whether or not this actually exists but I have seen enough photographs and experienced it myself to feel I can say I think it does exist. Don't be put off at the assumption that lightening must be fast or dangerous. Many of the reports on this describe it as moving slowly and floating around. It has been experienced on airplanes as well. The good feeling might be ascribed to the change in the energy field from it being in the room. I recall feeling rather warm, fuzzy and relaxed when it was in my room.

For more information and pictures, here are a few links:

This site contains a large number of eyewitness accounts that your husband can read and see if they match his own experience: http://amasci.com/weird/unusual/bl.html

I had a wonderful picture of ball lightening but don't see how to post it here or share it. And, I can't find the website I had found it on. Hopefully this helps.

Answer 5

Even believers will have a hard time believing that story.It just doesn't ring true.Your mother talked in her sleep.People do it all the time.

Answer 6

maybe that spirit is angry with you. living in their house, i i think the spirits don't know that they are dead. send me some pictures of your house and it will help me give you more answers.

Answer 7

Even if you Mom was asleep there is a possibility that she did call your name.  She doesn't know she did it and you can't prove it one way or the other.  I have carried on an entire conversation with people while asleep and I didn't remember a thing about it the next day.

Now to the energy.  It is just energy until you can prove otherwise.  I know that it is bothersome for you, but energy does what energy does.  Since you say you can see and sense spirits and ghost and you have not related that in these cases that is what you believe them to be, just chalk it up to energy.

I see those too every so often, but they are nothing to worry about.

Answer 8

sounds like you are suffering from narilepsy. This is a sleeping disorder which can cause hallucinations like the ones you are describing.

It may be temperary, due to stress or getting your sleep interrupted too many times. Basically the person does not go into a rem sleep and when they are awake they experience hallucinations. Another characteristic of narcilepsy is falling asleep at odd times.

There are a number of other sleeping disorders such as sleep apnea which is more common and could cause the same problems. From the fact that you believe you have seen ghosts in the past, I would say it comes and goes, so its probably related to stress in your life.

Answer 9

It could be a spirit that cannot manifest it's original form. It happens all the time. And for the thing about your mom calling you it could either be your mom talking in her sleep, or that the ghost is trying to use its surrondings to try to find it's original form or get you to notice it by using things around you that you distinctivlely know, like your mother's voice.

Answer 10

I would start with the obvious.........the windows.

It could have been the sun coming through, creating a prism.

Or if you stare into something bright for a while, your direct vision is impaired, but not the peripheral vision.

Answer 11

I honestly can't say what the orange blob is. It sounds like energy, but if it moved around as you looked at it, it might be something more. I can't say, because there just aren't enough details. Any unusual smells or temperature changes, or perhaps sounds? Has anything happened, something that seemed small at the time, but isn't now or a big thing that has changed in your life?

As for your mom calling your name, she might have done it in her sleep, OR you might have been hearing it in your head. My mom does it to me all the time (really loud when I'd be almost asleep in class), usually when she needs me for something and I'm not in the house or in another room. My dad did the same thing. The best one I can describe was when I was buying a coffee maker and couldn't remember if we had filters or not. My dad was out in the car, but I distinctly heard him say "get filters" in my head. I picked them up, and told him about it when I got outside and he said (I'll always remember this) "Good, you got the message." Freaked me out at the time, but I got used to it. (Whole family is like that, even my three year old nieces and nephews!)

Answer 12

Can you offer any more details about the orange thing? Given your description, I can offer only suggestions. Were you sleepy, or did you just wake up or were you about to fall asleep when you saw this orange shape? If so, I'd suggest it could be a hypnogogic hallucination. Were you looking at a bright light source and then looked across the room? Because if so this could lead to an optical illusion where you might see colored spots in your vision.

Regarding your mom's voice, I think Seerlight offers a good explanation. Also, if you were sleepy, hearing your mom's voice could also be attributed to dreams or hypnogogic hallucination.

Answer 13

your mom could have called your name in her sleep. people do talk in their sleep often. the windows could reflect the sun in some strange way like a prism does. i don't think you have much to worry about.

Answer 14

Sounds like you have a new visitor. Has anything changed at the house recently to stir things up?

Answer 15

Your house is haunted o_o

I'm guessing a person died in your house in their spirit is restless.
