Spirit presence can have a profound effect on your life. Many of them mean no harm, but their simple presence is enough to cause disruption to your life. This is because many people have reactions to spirit energy. If you have a spirit who is active in connecting with you whether in a positive or negative way, the effect is multiplied and over the years I have seen many people suffer greatly from spirit presence.

The problem is though that many of us don't recognize the signs of spirit presence until we see extreme examples of their presence. But these signs can be an asset to us. Even if you have a pleasant and friendly spirit, it's energy will drain yours so it should be moved on to where it is meant to be. They are not meant to remain here.

Below is a list of possible experiences you can have when spirits are present. Although some of the events on the list below can seem a little 'hair-raising', you may notice that many of them are seemingly normal things that can be associated with normal day to day situations, but when put together with others, they can point to the presence of a spirit.

There is much information about spirits that is not true or is exaggerated due to people's imagination or excitement about their experiences. The reality is that many situations to do with spirits are similar to normal day to day interactions with other human beings. Do not look at this list and assume you have a spirit present. Be wise and only when you have discounted all other causes can you begin to suspect a spirit. Over time, if you have the ability to sense spirit presence, you will begin to get better at sensing and locating them at which point you could choose to remove them or seek assistance in doing so.

All items on the list below have been actual experiences had by myself and/or clients and have been proven repeatedly to be signs of spirit presence. Everybody is different and reacts differently to energy. You may not have any physical reactions, but may notice the signs of their presence or you may experience several side effects. I hope this list helps.

*You or others may get annoyed, irritated or even have sudden and extreme mood swings for no apparent reason.

*You may experience changes in personality - habits that seem to come suddenly out of nowhere.

*The family (or those around you) seem to daydream a lot or have trouble keeping your mind on what's going on around you.

* You can suffer from disturbed sleep or sleep patterns.

* You may have thoughts that are not yours or they may be negative or bad.

* You may feel unexplainable energy around you as if it's surrounding you.

* You may experience sexual dreams with someone you don't know that seem realistic - more than just a dream.

* You may experience odd energy sensations such as energy running down your back or in your stomach.

* You may have difficulty entering some rooms - uncomfortable.

* You may experience difficulty thinking - fuzziness in the head.

* Animals may behave strangely.

* Babies or animals may appear to be watching something or someone that you cannot see.

* Unexplained repetitive banging.

* Children or others in the home may be experiencing restless sleep, bad dreams or mention people visiting them or scaring them. Not all spirits are trying to scare them, but appearing suddenly can be scary when not expecting it.

* You may experience a feeling of being pinned down when sleeping at night.

* You may notice white lights, flashes or anything like that flitting around you.

* You cannot locate an item only to find it somewhere other than where you left it.

* You may experience odd recurring pains or an increase in pain related to an injury or physical health issue.

* Electrical items switch on and off, or do something without anyone touching them.

* You may have flickering lights or light dimming for no apparent reason.

* You can feel like you have someone watching you with nobody else in the room.

* You may feel 'coldness' in any rooms of your home or the building you're in.

* You may hear voices talking in a room at a time when you know that nobody is there.

You may feel like someone has tapped you or touched you with nobody around.

* You may notice shadows or areas of the home that don't feel good.

* You may hear your name called.

* Things may drop or move with no explanation for them (sometimes even appear to be thrown).

* You may experience odd cravings for food you don't normally go for - this can come from the spirit that is around you.

* You may find yourself saying things that you wouldn't normally say and have no idea why. The energy of the spirit and his/her attitude and thoughts can affect yours.

* You may find that you can suddenly smell strange smells with no source for it. This can be anything from perfume to something bad. I have smelt, perfume, candy, chocolate, alcohol and rotten smells too at times.

* You may find that you suffer from body aches and pains with no apparent reason such as neck, back, headaches. You can also experience tiredness, exhaustion or cold and flu symptoms.

* You may have had weird dreams or even daydreams about things you've not experienced yourself that may have a feeling of having been there. The experiences of the spirit can be picked up by your energy and you may have experiences such as visions or daydreams that show these experiences.

* You may feel a sense of 'uncomfortableness' or 'suffocation' - a sort of claustrophobic feeling that the air feels 'thick' or a need for fresh air that you can't find a source for. This can come from having too much negative energy around that is not associated with spirits, but you may sense the feeling of a 'crowd' or 'people' associated with it. This is generally the negative energy that can come with a spirit and it can also be that there are several spirits around and you're picking up on all their energy. The room can feel 'full' even if there's just you in it.

* You may hear a lot of creaking or other sounds that you can't explain. Often we think these noises are the house 'settling' or something similar and I have found in our home that it often isn't.

* You may find that your moods improve when you're outside or in the sunshine. The sunshine kills off negative energy.

* You may notice a feeling of 'heaviness' when you enter your home.

* You may find that you feel and even look 'old' for no apparent reason. People can even take on the physical similarities of a spirit around so you can appear to look different.

* You may notice a face when you look in the mirror or turn around suddenly.

What to do It's important that you don't panic. All situations with spirit are perfectly natural and the majority of them are inoffensive. Reading some of the other articles on this site may help give you alternatives for what to do should you believe you have a spirit present. Good Luck!!
