I'm going to tackle a challenging topic here; the paranormal. First, I'd like to point out that things that we don't understand are not “magic” or “Woo-woo”. If these were studied patiently enough I'm certain that “ghosts”, “demons” and “astrals” would have rational explanations which would be perfectly clear to the average physicist and clear as mud to the average person. In the absence of those studies, we are left with the clear understanding from natural sciences that nature fills every niche in the environmental chain. You, the supposed head of the food chain, are just a meal to various insects , virus's and bacteria. It's no large leap of the imagination to understand that the spectrum of life is more populated than you have previously assumed, that you may be lunch, and that you can see them about as well as you can see a virus. And that, as with a virus, you know that they are present from the way you feel.

Some people can see these infestations because they have an open third eye. This is a faculty which I think anyone can develop if they work enough at it, but it takes time and effort. Just as you may not wish to learn auto mechanics to fix your own car, some things are best left to those with enough time and fanatic dedication to want to pursue them. Personally, I “see” these things as an electromagnetic disturbance in the energy field which detracts from the integrity of the auric field. For my own personal use and amusement I assign these disturbances names and characteristics according to how difficult they are to remove and what technique is needed.

The first type which I call "ghosts" are not literally the entire non-physical remnant which is left after death. The soul moves back to Divine Source. These are parts of the whole, similar to a robot run amuck once the central intelligence has been removed. They are seeking to plug themselves into an available power source. Since their previous power source was a corporeal body, they have invited themselves into yours. You would know them as a “pain in the neck”, or backache, or if they are a particularly willful remnant, as the reason you are binging on corn chips when you loathe them. My test for them is simple; I open a portal to the spirit world. If they belong there then they are sucked through into the portal. If the portal immediately closes then the problem is not a ghost.

The second type, “demons” have nothing to do with the legend of Satan. I simply use that as a handy tag to label them because their energetic frequency is particularly low and negative. They have more intelligence, are harder to remove, and can cause a lot of destruction and damage while they are in a physical body. They jump from person to person, as they have no corporeal body, always seeking a higher energy level. Eventually they find a body they like, bond in, and then ride the remnant after death. That kind is very difficult to deal with in the non corporeal state because they think; not rationally, but they do think. Healers have speculated on “demons” nature and origin. They obviously come from another plane because we can banish them back there. They've been with humanity for a long time, as the Seal of Solomon is quite effective on binding them. Notice that they pre-date Christianity as we know it, and also pre-date the legend of Satan. They are the reason I'm a strong believer in baptism and the power of faith. They don't find people who have a close affinity to Divine Spirit appealing, I think that the energy difference is too great. Anyway, for a healer it's apparent that they fit this classification if they can be bound with the seal of Solomon and banished. I personally treat them with respect and ask them to leave and we plan a travel itinerary which pleases them. So much easier to coax than to bully.

The third common category is astrals. Astrals like weak people, or people with an auric hole. An astral is a small, weak predator from the astral plane who is gathering physical material. They have the intelligence of a rather stupid house cat. You can see them even if you third eye isn't particularly open by looking at them out of the corner of your eye. They look like pastel or dark splodges which constantly change form. They like to hang out in dark bars which cater to alcoholics, around the ceiling in the corners. It's amusing to watch them during happy hour as they jostle to see who they're going to date that night. It's not so amusing to pick up one or three and take them home. As they can be rather painful. That would usually be the stiff neck which the chiropractor can't fix. Everyone occasionally picks up astrals, they are so common they are impossible to avoid. Healers simply pull out astrals , shake their physical matter off of them and slap them back to the astral plane. Then we request that you burn Frankincense incense to raise the vibrational level of your house.

That's not the complete zoological index, but it is the most common. I personally have never seen a werewolf or vampire. That doesn't mean that they don't exist- ecological niches, remember? It just means that for me, for now, Twilight is light fiction
