It is thought that ghosts are here because something disrupted their energy on our earthly plane and their energy or a snippet of their energy stays here. That energy is what appears to people. It is believed their ghostly energy stays on our plane until their pain from here on earth is resolved. 

It is thought that when a ghost releases their trauma from their past life is when they get to be a full spirit. It is also thought that spirits are always around to try to help ghosts release the negative energy so they can move on to the next energy level. 

Halloween is a great time to explore if you have the psychic ability to see spirits. It is commonly thought that the veil between the earthly and spiritual plane is thinner during the Halloween Season. This should make dimensional communication available to you, if you pay attention.

Here are 7 ways to tell if you had a spirit visitation dream: 

1. Visitation dreams feel real. The dreamer may be able to physically feel, smell, empathize and accept the energy as real in the dream. 

2. There is some clarity given to the dreamer. The spirit communicates clearly through words or actions.

3. The spirit that is visiting is whole again. The spirit is not sick, injured or sad. 

4. The dreamer usually wakes up feeling peace, happiness, love and comfort. 

5. The spirit appears to look like their younger self. 

We believe spirits are always around us. The energy of crossed loved ones stays with us once the soul of the person has crossed over. Many people use psychic mediums to connect with a crossed loved one’s energy. But, you don’t always need to use a psychic medium for the energy to come through. There are ways to recognize spirit energy around you.

Halloween is generally considered the time of year when the veil between the earthly plane and the other side thins. This should make communication between the dimensions easier.

Some indicators spirits are near:

1. Are you seeing butterflies? A Chinese legend indicates that if you see a butterfly, a soul has come to visit you from the other side of the veil. If the image of a face flashes into your mind when you see a butterfly, that may be a sign from a loved one that has passed to the other side.

When spirits and spirit guides are trying to communicate with us, they may show up as psychic symbols - cardinals, butterflies, pennies, certain songs and feathers are all examples of spirit showing up in daily life. We always encourage paying attention very closely to what is happening around you in the moment the psychic symbol reveals itself. There could be a message from your crossed loved one or spirit guides. Spirit is persistent. In our daily lives, the messages from spirit can easily be overlooked.
