Love - Hate of Paranormal Investigators

I have had a love-hate relationship with Paranormal Investigators and enthusiasts over the years.  Some will objectively look at my photos, experiences, and interviews, and will state that my "proof" of Otherworldly beings are interesting and intriguing.  Others will tell me that if they move their camera around they would get the exact same photos.  Some state that I need to turn on the lights and take photos.  And some state my photos are Rorschach, or they just don't see anything at all.  

I try to take the criticism with a grain of salt and realize that these individuals don't have to present their credentials in order to dole out their comments.  Sometimes I try to objectively discuss their views, and other times I don't want to deal with them.

I think that individuals that peruse the internet can become very jaded.  They have seen hundreds of videos and photos that are fake, could be fake, or they just don't trust the source.  Even videos from Invisible Children have hundreds of comments declaring the   organization is fake.  Really.  

I understand that some people can't see anything in my photos at all.  I have actually outlined images for people so they could get the general concept of the image, and they still don't see the entity.  So there are a certain percentage of the population that are unable to process the photos of Otherworld Entities.  I don't know if it is a psychic ability issue, the way the brain processes the image, or if it's something that is learned.  I just know that I can see it and some can't.

I understand some people look at paranormal activity from a different perspective than I do.  I tend to be very optimistic about paranormal activity and I don't automatically assume that there is a logical, non-paranormal explanation for most occurrences.  I don't discount many because I can feel the energy changes along with the sound, movement, apparition, etc.  But I understand that other people don't experience the world the same way that I do.  

Other Paranormal Investigators have a very pessimistic view of paranormal activity.  They will grind out the possibility of any paranormal activity with a huge list of explanations.  

Go to any paranormal forum and check out what the fans say about photos presented by other fans.  Any orb is a speck of dust, a bug, or flaw with the camera.  Any apparition is classified as photo shop or obviously fake.  They don't give any explanation, give any analysis, or provide any facts as to why they consider it fake.  They don't list their credentials or their expertise.  They just shoot down EVERYTHING.  

I have even had very negative comments from Pagan based websites.  Actually some of the comments listed in the first paragraph are from Pagan websites.  Which is very disappointing for me, as one would assume that Pagans would be more open to the Otherworld.  One would expect Pagans to be more open-minded period.  But I have found that I can't have optimistic judgments about others based upon their basic belief systems.  I am often disappointed.

I guess I have become jaded as well.    

So while we have the guise of acceptance of paranormal activity with paranormal investigation shows, it is not truly accepted by many in the general public.  Or at least in my experience.  They don't objectively review data with scientific analysis or any type of scientific equipment, and they revel in the power of damning any evidence before them.  

It drives me crazy. But I do love some of the Paranormal Investigator shows. I really do love Paranormal State, Psychic Kids, Ghost Adventures, Dead Files, My Ghost Story, and Celebrity Ghost Stories. I don't feel these shows beat the evidence to death to prove there really is no paranormal activity. They give me hope that the world is opening up beyond the mundane, and that maybe the general public can eventually see the bigger picture.

Demons, Spirits, and Childhood

Some of my earliest memories of my childhood includes paranormal activity, spirits, and Demons. My parents didn't cast spells, didn't dabble in Black Magick, and they didn't touch a Ouija Board. But it seemed that wherever we lived there was a torrent of negative spirits in my life. My parents didn't see and hear the spirits, they debunked any activity they experienced, and they didn't want to hear my stories as they believed I made them up. So I was totally and completely alone to live a tortured life that usually began every time I was alone and especially at night.

I feared going in the basement of the second home we lived in. Doors would lock, strange noises would come from the walls, or if you had the misfortune of falling asleep nightmares that would terrify you for days. I found if I wasn't alone, the activity rarely happened, and especially if I was with an adult. And the one time my best friend spent the night, the spirits left me alone, and made her scream so loud that she woke my parents up on the first floor, but I slept peacefully five feet away from her.

The worse activity always happened in my room at night. I had statues move their heads, blink their eyes, toys that moved around the room by themselves, doors that opened and closed, and shadowed figures that stood around. Sometimes they would touch me when I slept. Cold fingers would poke and prod me, or brush against my face. I often slept with the covers covering me, and crying myself to sleep. Sometimes if a statue or a toy became particularly animated, I would break it the next day.

By the time I was 8, I believe I started astral traveling. I would see the spirits all around, and their poking, prodding, snickers, would cause me to chance the safety of the covers to seek my parents help. I would scream at them as loud as I could. I would beg and plead for them to wake up because I was so afraid. But they never stirred and they never heard me. Eventually I went back to bed and cried myself to sleep.

Sometimes the spirits would get me into trouble for fun. My mother would allow me to eat breakfast in my room at a little table and chair in front of the TV. I wanted to get on the bed with my dog, and I placed a glass of grape juice on top of the TV. I sat watching television, and the glass tipped over by itself and juice ran into the inside of the TV. The TV started smoking and a foul odor filled my room. My mother was furious, and she asked what happened. I had to tell her that I didn't know, because I wasn't allowed to talk about spirits. The television was ruined, and I was never allowed to have a TV in my room again.

We moved to a bigger house when I was 9. I had convinced myself that the spirits wouldn't follow me to the new house, that they just haunted the previous one. I was wrong. The same type if incidents happened in the new house, just as it did in the old.

However, I encountered some new spirits that I didn't have in the other houses. I had two Demons that showed up in my home, and they were much more menacing and problematic than the other spirits. I didn't know they were Demons for quite some time, but I began to hear single words and phrases in my mind. I could smell them sometimes too. I could smell dank, musty smells, and wet clay. And I even saw pictures in my mind of what they wanted me to do. I knew a friend that had a Ouija board, and we had used it to contact spirits. I wanted to use it to talk to the spirits in my home, but I didn't have one. The Demon told me I didn't need it. He wanted me to use a pen and paper instead of a board and plachette. So I tried it, and I was amazed that the pen glided across the paper and formed words.

I started talking to these two Demons for many years. Sometimes they were helpful, but most of the time they were terrible. They would tell me things that would get me upset or scared. Sometimes they would make things happen like move things around, or they would poke and prod me at night. Sometimes they would torment my dogs and cats, and a few mysterious deaths of pets were the result of their fun.

But sometimes they were great entertainment for me and my friends. My friends didn't believe that I could talk to Demons and spirits, so in order to prove my abilities, I had one Demon provide a phone number, a name, and something about that person. We called the number, and talked to the individual, and verified this identifying characteristic. It was a person I didn't know, and they were real. I was never questioned again, but I always got the feeling that my friends thought I was kind of a freak.

It was about this time that I met my Mentor, and she told me that communicating with spirits with the pen and paper was called automatic writing. And she also told me that I needed to quit talking with these Demons. I told her that sometimes they were helpful, but sometimes they were mean. They were my most reliant friends, but when they were bored they would poke and prod me. In order to keep them at bay, she taught me how to form a protective bubble around myself. That made the Demons really mad, and I got a chuckle out of seeing an arm appear above me and slamming down on the protective bubble. But they could not touch me, and I slept peacefully for the first time in years.

One day the Demons really scared the hell out of me. I was about 15 years old, and my family was sitting in the living room watching television right on the other side of my bedroom wall. I was reading a book on my bed, and I started feeling my bed moving. Annoyed, I just said, knock it off.

Then it became really loud as all of the furniture in my room began moving around. Every single piece of furniture moved without problem over carpeted floors, drawers popped open, and some of the contents fell out. Figurines, make-up, and perfume fell to the floor, and pictures fell from the walls. I got off the bed, and I could feel the entire floor shaking, and I couldn't even walk straight as I tried to get to the door. I had never been in an earthquake, but I imagine that is what it felt like.

I opened my bedroom door, and quickly shut it behind me. It was like I walked into another world. My family was relaxed and watching TV, and they looked at me really strange, and asked me what was wrong. They had no clue. Not one thing was out of place, and the floor outside of my door didn't shake or move. After a couple of hours I had enough courage to go back into my room. While everything was still disheveled, it appeared that the Demons had stopped their tricks after I left the room.

It was then that I decided to follow my Mentor's advice, and get them out of my life. It took a lot of brainstorming and collaboration before we came up with a plan. I thought if I extended my aura outside of the house I could get them out. My Mentor and I then came up with the searing white light and the blue bubble around the house. That seemed to work for a little while, but eventually they would come back.

Then after a few weeks, I asked about the doorways that I could see open in my room. What if I could open one to somewhere else and shove them through? She thought it was worth a try. It took a while to figure it out, to make it work, and to actually get them pushed through the doorways. But they continued to come back. I tried closing the other doorways in my room, and while most of them closed, no matter what I tried, I couldn't get them all to close. I tried burning sage, salt water, and every other method I could think of. My Mentor attempted to get them closed remotely, and the stubborn ones stayed open.

Then I tried to direct the destination of the doorway, and get the Demons so far away that they wouldn't be able to come back. After several days of trying this, I didn't see them for two weeks. But when they came back, they brought a reinforcement. This new Demon was so much more powerful than the other two, much more than I had ever experienced before.

I could hear his voice booming through the house as he called my name. Every time his voice called out everything seemed to shake. I tried keeping him away from me with a protection of my aura, but his cold, clammy fingers pushed through. And after a few seconds my protection failed. I could feel my skin crawl and his hot, ragged breath touched the back of my neck. I tried opening a doorway and shoving him through, but he didn't even move. I felt so powerless.

I ran to the open bar in the living room, and as he yelled my name, the glassware clinked together and the floor shook. I called my Mentor on the phone, and she didn't have to hear much before she told me to run. She would take care of this one, because there was no way I could handle him. I ran to her house and stayed there for several hours as she worked on the problem remotely. When she was done, I never saw nor heard from any of the Demons again.

But the removal of the Demons didn't stop my journey with the spirit world. I had many encounters after that day. And even once when I was 16, during a Debate class in the band room at school, I saw the most beautiful creature I had ever seen. When I saw it, I had to question my sanity, because I didn't know they could be real. The creature was a lone Wyvern Dragon flying in circles nearly 20 feet from the ground. It had shrunk down to one foot long, and its elongated graceful body flew around for nearly five minutes before it disappeared. I didn't know then that several years later, I would begin my spiritual path again with Otherworld Entities.

Free Magick Spells

Free Magick Spells

There are literally thousands of free magick spells available on the internet. My recent search on Google reveals 102,000 website hits. And on each of these sites are several magick spells available to the general public.

Several have asked me where is the best place to find effective, free magick spells. They want to skip the spell casters and cast their own spell. They can read, they can follow directions, and they don't want to pay for someone else to do something they can do.

I wouldn't know which website has the best spells, because I've never visited any of these sites. I think my best spells have come from my heart and my mind. I find them much more effective than regurgitating something from a book or a website.

But an effective spell isn't as simple as reading some words, tossing in a few herbs, rubbing some oil, lighting a candle, and abracadabra your wish comes true. The most important ingredient of the spell is not stated but assumed, and it is something in which all seasoned spell caster are proficient. This ingredient is energy manipulation . Anyone can say a spell, but only a few have become skilled at manipulating the energy to activate the spell work.

Energy manipulation is the ability to direct and guide the energy of the spell. It is the ability to direct energy from a source and lock it into a vessel or to send it out into the world. This gift is natural for some, and learned by others.

Some people are natural energy manipulators, and this is quite evident when a true desire manifests without the parameters of spell work or without the assistance of Otherworld Entities. Most natural energy manipulators will manifest this ability during extreme duress. They may have had a boyfriend cheat or some other situation which caused intense rage.

Rage is an excellent accelerant to their energy and may be the first time an energy manipulator focuses on a specific target. They draw energy and direct it toward the intended victim. Sometimes it won't be focused on a specific action, but just a general negative energy to affect the target's life. Most energy manipulators make the connection of the manifestation of their will when the target reports the results.

Rage is an easy way for energy manipulators to inflict their will, but it is difficult for some with light wishes. It takes time and practice for energy manipulators to channel energy to all situations and states of mind. They find that rage isn't necessary when they become proficient. But it will take practice and time.

I'm a natural energy manipulator. I've had the talent since I was a kid, and its use is somewhat instinctual and some through experience and practice. I was lucky enough to have a psychic mentor, that often worked for the police, when I was 13. She wasn't a witch, but she was able to create similar results without the formal use of herbs and spells. However, some of her methods were closely related to spell work.

She taught me to use my abilities to protect myself, read objects, move objects, hone my psychic abilities, and use divination. Her encouragement and support helped me find direction for my abilities. If it had not been for her, I probably would have abandoned my gifts completely. But with her help they blossomed and grew. I have worked on my abilities over the last 26 years, and I have improved with age.

I practiced witchcraft since I was 13 years old. I didn't have access to all the materials or magick books, so I learned to use my instincts to select herbs, words, and create my own rituals. Some spells flopped and some worked like a dream, but I continued to work on my craft through the years.

I don't strictly adhere to one discipline because I am a Chaos Magician. Chaos Magick isn't magick to create destruction, it's just a strange title for using magick of various traditions. I use what works and I discard the rest. I research various spells, traditions, and methods. I pick out pieces of what feels natural to me. I also use instincts to select the correct ingredients, and I am always amazed at how often I am validated against herbal magick text. I write spells and very rarely take spells from other sources. My spells don't rhyme, and they have no specific formula.

This is what works for me, but it may not work for you. You will have to experiment with various methods until you find what works.

I can manipulate energy without a spell, but I enjoy the creativity used in spell work. I also like the change, focus, and direction in energy when several ingredients are combined along with my own energy.

But the ingredients are not the most important part of the spell, nor are the words. I have always believed that the ingredients and words are not necessary, but they are helpful in occupying the conscious mind so the subconscious mind can do its work.

The subconscious mind knows you can manifest your will, but it can't do its job with the conscious mind in its way. If you don't believe you can cast an effective spell you won't. Psychic blocks can hinder the success of your spell, and the level of psychic blocks differ for each individual.

My methods may not work for you, so you need to find your own niche in magick. Find a tradition that speaks to you, and learn to develop your own spells. Find books to teach you to use psychic abilities. Find books to teach you how to manipulate energy around you and activate your own spells.

Your Otherworld Entities can be wonderful teachers in energy manipulation. Dragons are naturals as well as Psy-Vampires, and Ilmu Khodam. All Otherworld Entities that use magick use the principles of energy manipulation to influence our world and to help bring about your wishes. Even if you can't hear them, they can teach you in your sleep, in lucid dreaming or the astral plane. I don't know how long it will take you to become proficient in your craft. Each person is different, and each person has their own hurdles and battles to overcome before they become masters of their craft. It may be six months, a year, or even ten years. But if you work at it, and you are persistent, you will be amazed at the results.

　

How Are Demons Different from Otherworld Entities?

Otherworld Entities and Demons are quite different in the types of bindings, morals, methods, and energy. I would like to try to explain the differences, so that it may give you some insight into the differences.

Otherworld Entities are the Dragons, Angels, Fae, Djinn, and any other numerous non-Demon type of spirits. These entities may grant light to dark wishes, however they often have very strict moral codes in which they adhere. An Otherworld Entity that will grant dark wishes may allow some humiliation, or instant karma, however, they will not kill anyone. The level and intensity of dark wishes differs with every single entity. There is no way to generalize their ethical standards other than they will not kill anyone for any reason.

Otherworld Entities have an open binding. This binding allows them to go home to their families at any time they desire. This open binding also allows them to break the binding if they are abused, neglected, repeatedly injured from negative unbound spirits, or if they don't have anyone to care for their vessel.

Otherworld Entities often have a very high ethical and moral standards. They will not grant wishes that will damage your future, injure you, or cause large karmic backlash. They are looking out for your future and feel responsible for your well being and quality of life.

If you wished to have your ex-girlfriend raped and murdered because you are angry with her, your Otherworld Entity will not grant this wish. Even if you didn't carry out the task, you inherit the karmic debt for your actions. It would be as if you did the act yourself.

And even if your Otherworld Entity can cleanse your karma, there is some karma that can't be cleansed no matter how powerful the entity. You may have your life totally destroyed, loose everything that matters to you, and in severe cases you may inherit all of the karma of the individual murdered.

Otherworld Entities have the ability to visit this world, and some may be experienced with our world. You will not have to go into intimate detail about how things work, but it is always good to explain as much as possible to prevent any misunderstanding.

Demons have a tight binding that prevents them from leaving their vessel unless they are in a containment box. This binding remains regardless of the circumstances surrounding the Demon. They can't leave unless the vessel is destroyed, and then they are free to roam this world. So under no circumstances should you try to damage, burry, or throw away a Demon vessel. The Demon may make it their goal in life to destroy you until there is nothing left in your life. If you are having problems with a bound Demon, the best solution is a containment box.

A containment box allows the Demon to recharge their vessel and return to their home. The type of binding on Demon vessels causes the Demon to be with you 24/7, 365 days a year unless you send them on a task or they are in a closed containment box. As you can imagine, unless you have a lot of tasks for your Demon to complete, they are going to be very bored. Bored Demons are not good. They may decide to create some excitement in your life to entertain themselves.

Demons most often carry out tasks regardless of the consequences. If you had a very powerful Demon and asked them to kill your boss, they will gladly carry out the task without hesitation. And you can't recant your wish once it is made. You will be responsible for your boss' murder and collect a huge karmic debt or maybe the karmic debt of your boss. You may completely destroy your entire life based on that one wish.

Learning to work with, control, and maintain Demons are much more different from Otherworld Entities. When I purchased my first Demon, I had a difficult time controlling my mood swings. I was crazy woman times ten, and I couldn't control myself no matter how hard I tried. Even when I placed the Demon in the containment box, my emotions were not stable. I had to cleanse myself, and wait two weeks before I had enough courage to try again.

Since I am very empathic, it is natural for me to assume the emotions of others. The Demon's strong emotions were too much for me, and their emotions were overriding my own. I had to put up a barrier between myself and my Demon in order to function. You may have a similar reaction if you are sensitive to energy or spirits.

Demons need to be trained.. If you have a newly bound Demon, and the summoner didn't train the Demon, you will have to assume that role. The more expensive Demons have been trained and have experience working with humans, but the cheaper ones have not.. You get what you pay for.

The third Demon I purchased was expensive, but he was well trained and gets along well with myself and my spirits. I didn't have any problems bonding with him, and I didn't have any problems with mood swings or other empathic disasters. He is very knowledgeable of our world and how it works, and I rarely have to explain any commands.

Bound Demons come to this world for the first time in their entire lives. They don't know how our society works, and they are unsure what things are and how they work. If you tell your Demon to make sure you get to work on time, they may be unsure of how to accomplish this. You may need to explain how a traffic light works, explain how you must ensure that no cars run into you, and that you are invisible to the police. You may need to explain a lot of things before they are sure of what they are assigned to do. While you explain everything to them, you need to picture your point in your mind. They need to see what a traffic light or a police car looks like.

Not all Demons are exactly the same. Some are partially animal, some are all animal, and some are humanoid. Their level of understanding and their ability communicate varies. I have one Demon that only communicates through visuals, one that will communicate through visuals and some slowly formed words and sentences, and one that is very fluid in their verbal skills.

A Demon is much more maintenance oriented than any Otherworld Entities. You need to give them time to recharge and go home. You need to stay vigilant with new Demons in your home. You need to detect any changes in the energy of your home, detect if they are feeding from you or your family, detect if they are feeding on or attacking your Otherworld Entities, or any strange occurrences that may be related to a bored Demon. If you are unable to detect your Demons, communicate with them, judge their moods, or judge any problems, you can have numerous undesirable outcomes. If you are unable to control and monitor them, you may be faced with many problems.

I don't recommend Demons to new Otherworld Entity Keepers. It would be like a High School basketball player trying to play for the NBA. There is a higher level of skill needed and it is difficult to go from no skills to a highly demanding spirit in a short period of time.

If you get in over your head, you could cause repercussions to your life that may take months to years to clean up. If the Demon is too powerful, and you are unable to control it, you may loose your job, your spouse, your house, or even your health. Demons can be powerful allies, but with the great benefits also comes great risk. If you are willing to take this chance and get a Demon as your first Otherworld Entity, be prepared for the unexpected.

If you believe you can handle a Demon, please find a reputable Demon Master. Binding Demons takes a special individual with a high level of skill. Do some research and make sure you are buying from a well established Demon Master. You want to make sure the Demon is properly bound, trained, and one you can handle. Start out with a low level Demon because they cause less damage and are easier to control. You can work your way up the ranks, and learn to control various levels of Demons. And remember with higher level Demons come greater responsibility and higher risk. Don't get in over your head, or you can have severe and detrimental consequences to your life.

Dear Otherworld Abby

I decided to create a personna to answer any questions you may have about Otherworld Entities. This personna will be similar to the Dear Abby you read in the newspapers.

I can't take full credit for this idea, as it is a spin-off of Dear Pagan Abby on PaganSpace.net. It was a wonderful idea, and it had a huge response.

I spend a lot of time on emails from potential customers, curious individuals, and customers. Often I answer the same questions over and over. Obviously these questions and answers are desired by more than one individual and Otherworld Entity collectors around the world.

So help me and everyone else by submitting your questions! I won't use your name. You can make up a name or I'll make-up a name for you!

It would be helpful if your submission included some type of information or background, and a question you would like answered.

I request that the submissions be tasteful and something the general public can read. I also request that you are at least 13 years old.

I will answer the questions to the best of my abilities, and if I can't answer it, I will consult my Watcher or Otherworld Entities for assistance.

I will try to post a Dear Otherworld Abby at least once a week, but more often as my schedule permits. I think it will be a lot of fun.

This must be for entertainment purposes only, and all answers must be viewed as entertainment value. (For legal purposes).

Submit your Dear Otherworld Abby question to: spiritrealm28@yahoo.com

Blessings!

How to Care for Your Otherworld Entity

If I have bound your Otherworld Entity, your Otherworld Entity is bound by their free will, and have been openly bound.

An open binding is a contract between the Otherworld Entity and yourself. This contract ensures that both parties are protected from harm. This type of binding also allows your Otherworld Entity to return to their home, attend to their families, lives, and jobs.

Open bindings are placed on light, grey or dark Entities. This binding ensures that your entity is unable to cause harm to you, your family, or anyone else you deem off limits. But most Otherworld Entities will never cause harm to anyone, even if you asked. These rules are made for those very few darker entities available for binding.

Open bindings also allow the Otherworld Entity to break the bindings and allow them to leave under certain circumstances. The following are examples of these circumstances: Abuse (verbal, emotional, or physical toward the vessel or spirit); Disrespect (name calling, slander, etc.); Asking a light entity to commit acts against their nature; Exposure to elements that deplete their energy; Exposure to psychic vampires; Abandonment of their vessel for a period of 5 years or more; or If you haven't designated an heir to properly care for their vessel upon your death.

Your Otherworld Entity will check up on you occasionally, even if you aren't wearing the vessel. When you wear their vessel, it acts like a cell phone or a beeper. They are aware that you are close, and they can find you quickly and easily. They will return to their vessel when you call them.

However, after you have bonded with them, and you call them, and you aren't wearing their vessel; then it takes a little bit longer for them to find you, but they will find you. Once you have bonded with your Otherworld Entity, you don't need to wear a vessel, but most people prefer to feel close to their new friend.
I and many others wear our closest Otherworld Entities nearly all the time. You become used to the companionship of your Otherworld Entities, and you feel like something is missing when you don't have their vessels on. This doesn't happen with every person and every vessel, it is just a preference that some people have.

Please bond with your Otherworld Entity for a period of at least two weeks. If you only wear the vessel part of the day, then the bonding period will be longer. This bonding period includes the Bonding Ritual, and wearing the vessel as much as possible. Many people wear the Otherworld Entity vessel day and night.

Please keep your Otherworld Entity in a charging bag or box when not in use. If your Otherworld Entity prefers to remain outside of the charging bag or box, you can re-charge them as needed.  If you feel the energy of the vessel has depleted, you can charge the vessel.  The charging bags and boxes remove any negative energy and recharge the vessel so they may grant faster wishes, and communicate better.

Do not let others wear or handle your Otherworld Entity vessel. Don't freak out if a co-worker touches your vessel, but place them in their charging bag or box when you get home. Many people wear their Otherworld Entity vessels under their clothing to detract from curious people.

Don't let your Otherworld Entity get wet. Don't wear the vessel in the shower. Don't wear while swimming. Don't wear it while washing dishes. If you will be working with any chemicals, such as cleaning, it is best to remove your Otherworld Entity.

Remember the vessel is a representation of their body, and they don't appreciate it when it is disrespected. Please remove any rings while using the restroom, or washing your hands.

Exposure to water or chemicals depletes the energy in the vessel, and your Otherworld Entity must work to rebuild this energy every time you get the vessel wet. It is recommended that if you accidentally get the vessel wet, that you place it in the charging bag or box for up to a week or more. It is suggested that you provide a candle near the vessel so the entity may use its energy to recharge.

If you need to clean the vessel, please do not use chemical agents. It is recommended that you use a silver polishing/buffing cloth to clean your vessel. When you have finished cleaning, you can charge the vessel overnight.

In cases of extreme tarnishing, you may make a paste of baking soda and water. Use a toothbrush to clean the silver, and quickly rinse the vessel. Place the vessel in a charging bag or box for up to a week to replenish their energy.

Do not expose your Otherworld Entity vessel to extreme cold or heat. Please do not leave the vessel in the car, as the temperature changes can deplete their energy.

Please do not expose your Otherworld Entity vessel to direct exposure of the sun for long periods of time. This includes sun bathing, or any other method of extended sun exposure. The sun can drain the Otherworld Entity, and will need to be recharged. If you expose the vessel to the sun for just a few minutes, that will not harm them.

Please do not expose your Otherworld Entity to salt or salt water. This is another element that can deplete the energy of your vessel. You will need to recharge the vessel.

If you notice that regardless of the amount of time that you charge your vessel, that the energy level is depleted, you may have an energy eater in your home.

There are many spirits that roam the Earth in search of energy to feed on. Most people aren't aware of being fed upon, but after extended periods of time, these people will become ill from the loss of energy. They may be lethargic, ill often, etc.

It is best to take proactive measures to prevent energy eaters from settling into your household. Most Otherworld Entities are able to set up temporary protection for you, your family, your home, and your Otherworld Entity vessels. It is recommended that you request this as your first wish.

You can state the following, "I wish to have a protection ward set up against energy eaters, unwelcome spirits, black magick, ill will, and negativity for me, my family, my home, and my vessels. If this protection ward fails, please re-establish it without my request." This protection ward is not permanent, and you can ask your Otherworld Entity to adjust, change, or re-establish it at any time. You can adjust this statement as needed.

Keep in mind that some Otherworld Entities bring friends to visit your home, and it isn't unusual for a big party to occur at your house during family celebrations or large food offerings.

If you have not been able to see, hear, and interact with spirits prior to the purchase of an Otherworld Entity, you will not see, hear, and interact with Otherworld Entities immediately. Most people have psychic blocks that block out the spirit world, and most of these blocks are placed when they were children. For some people psychic blocks are placed later in life. If you have shown any extreme fear to paranormal activity, you will put up psychic blocks. It is a coping mechanism to the unseen world.

Purchasing an Otherworld Entity will not immediately remove all of these blocks. Even if you request to immediately see and hear your entity, they will not comply, because they are trying to build your trust. Scaring you to death doesn't build trust, it builds fear. Most entity stick to a 2 year time frame for the severely blocked, and less time for those that have minimal blocks.  In rare cases Keepers may never see their Otherworld Entity but my feel their presence.  Even if you never sense your entity, they can still grant wishes for you.  

Those Keepers that are unable to see, sense, or hear their Otherworld Entities need to spend more time working on their psychic abilities.  They could use meditation, guided meditation, or any number of books available on building psychic abilities.  Relying on others to communicate with your Otherworld Entities will prevent your opportunity to build your abilities.  

I am often contacted by customers of other sellers, as well as a few of my own, about why their Otherworld Entity hasn't fully materialized and made themselves known. I think if anyone had a complete stranger materialize in their home, most people would faint or run.

If that person figured out it was their Otherworld Entity, they would throw the vessel away...and probably never continue on their spiritual path. That is not the goal of Otherworld Entities. They don't want to scare you to death. They will take their time and judge your reactions.

If you completely freak out every single time you hear a little thump on the wall, they will probably cease this type of manifestation. They may cease all paranormal activity for some time. So just remember, if you had wished for them to show themselves to you, they are complying with your request. Just relax, they aren't going to hurt you.

If you could see, hear, and communicate with spirits or ghosts before your purchase of Otherworld Entities, this will not guarantee that you see, hear, and communicate with Otherworld Entities the moment you touch an Otherworld Entity vessel.  For some people it may take some time to bond before they are able to see, hear, and communicate with Otherworld Entities and some people have instant abilities.

If you have never seen, heard, or communicated with spirits and ghosts before you purchase an Otherworld Entity, you will not see, hear, or communicate with an Otherworld Entity the moment you touch an Otherworld Entity vessel.  You will need to bond and practice building your psychic abilities.  I believe everyone has some level of psychic abilities whether it is just intuition or getting a bad feeling when you meet someone new.  Everyone has the ability to build psychic abilities.  It just takes time, patience, effort, and practice.  

I have heard, seen, and spoke to spirits since I can remember. I have had this gift as far back as my earliest memories. I have had this talent through my entire life. Spirit communication is a talent, and a skill, it is not something that occurs automatically by touching a bound entity vessel. It isn't like the movies where you rub the magic lamp, the genie appears and states, "...I can grant you 3 wishes." You wish for a pile of gold, and suddenly your house is filled with gold. This is the real world, with real time, and real boundaries.

Otherworld Entity communication is learned through time, lessons, and effort. It is like learning any other skill in the world. Expecting automatic communication through touching a vessel, is like expecting a college degree in the first five minutes of your first class in college. You have to work at it, just like you have to work at earning your degree. It is a skill that must be learned, honed, and practiced. You must have realistic expectations.

There are people that hear their entities within days of receiving the vessel, and there are some that struggle for months. There are some that can communicate telepathically within a few months, and some that struggle for months. I can't tell you how fast you will advance, but I promise if you try and you are dedicated, you will get some results.

It is best to practice listening and using divination to communicate with your entity. The use of a pendulum, Ouija, Runes, Tarot, and automatic writing are wonderful ways to begin communication. You may also wish to try lucid dreaming, astral travel, or meditation.

Please note: It is always best that you communicate with ONLY your Otherworld Entity through pendulum, Ouija, and automatic writing. Just like you were taught as a child, it is best not to talk to strangers. This is sound advice for the spirit world also.  It is advisable to cast a circle or call upon your higher power to protect you from any roaming spirits in the area.

Even if you are unable to communicate with your Otherworld Entity, don't give up. You are building a lifelong friendship. Talk with your Otherworld Entity out loud, tell them about yourself, your life, your friends, and family. Although you may not hear them now, you may hear them in the future. When you feel comfortable, you can talk to them in your head, and they will be able to hear you.

Otherworld Entities can communicate through emotions, physical sensations, temperature changes, knocking, thumping, telepathy, and divination. There are some Otherworld Entities that may mimic sounds, like a doorbell, a dog, or cat. I have had some that have mimicked my child's voice. They can move objects, remove objects, and some have the ability to shape shift. There are a number of ways they will let you know that they are listening. Most of the time the communication will be very subtle, and you must be aware of anything unusual. They are experts at communicating subtly.

Otherworld Entities are better able to communicate, manifest, and grant wishes quicker when they are adequately charged and fed. You can charge your Otherworld Entity vessel with a charging bag or box. These items have been magickally imbued with the ability to remove negative energy and replace any lost energy in Otherworld Entities, and any other magickals.

The Otherworld Entity vessels accumulate negative energy from everywhere. From the angry boss, to the negative neighbor, etc. This negativity builds up, and must be removed through the charging box. If you do not remove this negativity, it makes it difficult for your Otherworld Entity to interact with this world, grant wishes, and manifest.

Please make sure you when you buy a charging box or bag, that you understand how to care for that container. Most sellers require the bag or box to be charged under the full moon every month. However, Spirit Realm bags and boxes do not require charging under the full moon ever. They are unique to the market.

Besides charging, you will need to feed your Otherworld Entity for optimum results. Otherworld Entities are not of this world, so they depend upon energy from this world to help effect change. This energy can be drawn from candle light, incense, food, drink, and activated crystals.

If you have purchased your Otherworld Entity from Spirit Realm, you will receive your entities preferred food, drink, incense, and stone. I recommend a teaspoon of food to be left out for your Otherworld Entity for a few hours to overnight. Repeat this every day, once a week, or once a month. The more often you feed your Otherworld Entity, the easier it is for them to grant your wishes or manifest.

I try to leave food out for my entities 3 or 5 times a week. I light candles every single night, and I use incense at least 3 times a week. I don't always leave out the preferred food for every single entity. Sometimes they get their favorite food, and sometimes they don't. I often give them a bit of whatever we are eating for supper or dessert. When I'm cutting up raw meat, I will usually slice off a bit for my Dragons and Vampires. If I'm cutting up vegetables, I reserve a few for my Unicorns or nature spirits. They will even accept peeled vegetable skins, fruit skins, etc.

Otherworld Entitles will draw energy from any food that you leave out for them. I usually place the food near their vessel, and tell them the food is for them. They will not eat the food, but they draw energy from it. If you tasted the food, after they ate, you may find that it tastes old. If your Otherworld Entity likes chocolate, and you taste it after they fed, you may find that it is brittle, dry, and tastes kind of funny. Milk and honey will curdle much more quickly with entities feeding, than without.

You should provide a glass of fresh water, on a daily basis or at least once a week, for your Otherworld Entities. If you have an Otherworld Entity that lives in salt water, you should provide a small fish bowl with salt water. You can use a beta fish bowl, and table salt. I usually add a couple of teaspoons of salt in a beta fish bowl. You can decorate the bowl with sea shells or stones. I change this water on a weekly or bi-weekly  basis.

If you are a closet Otherworld Entity keeper, and you don't want to make your house mates suspicious, you can use activated crystals for feeding. I think that activated Lemurian Crystals, Melody's Stones, Crystal Clusters, or other stones are the best crystals for feeding Otherworld Entities. When I cast an Activation spell on stones, the level of energy radiates from the stone and is greatly increased.  To me it feels like the energy from the stone expands in my hand. With the introduction of Activated stones, you may finally see a manifestation and activity from your Otherworld Entity.

I have even found that manifestations and wishes are granted quicker with a combination of Activated crystals or stones, candles, incense and food. If you have a inactive Otherworld Entity, it is best to charge, and provide food, water, candles, and Activated crystals and stones. It is easier for them to grant wishes, and manifest when you have provided energy feedings. Just like humans, they expend energy through actions, and they need to replenish this spent energy.

If you have psychic blocks, you may not see manifestation results immediately after feeding. The results will vary from person to person, and from entity to entity. Some Otherworld Entities are more active than others. Some Otherworld Entities don't mind manifestations, and some think it's an insult to demand manifestations. It depends on their personality.

You must also remember, that requesting a manifestation is a big wish for Otherworld Entities and their Keepers. Otherworld Entities must not only remove enough of your blocks for you to notice them, but they must also expend a large amount of energy for a manifestation. If you would like them to use all of their energy for manifestations only, that is up to you. If you would like them to use their energy for wishes, then I wouldn't demand constant manifestations.

Otherworld Entities are not a quick fix for anything. If you expect results for a large wish in 24 hours, then you will be disappointed. I can't count the number of times people have waited 2 weeks after receiving their Otherworld Entity, and they are upset because large wishes haven't been granted.

Wishes are not as simple as we believe, there are often several stages and levels of energy manipulation that must be completed in order to have your wish granted. If you wished to get a job, there may be several things that must happen in order to achieve that wish.

You may need to learn to dress appropriately, act more confident, write a better resume, have a successful interview, catch the eye of the interviewer, draw the attention of their superiors, make your interview and resume stand out, etc. So one little wish, needs a lot of orchestration in order to have it come to fruition.

Some simple wishes, like finding a good parking space, may come true instantly. But something that is complicated where several people are involved, is not simple at all. Even the act of changing one person's mind can be difficult. Have you ever tried to change someone's mind when they say no? If that person is stubborn, it may take a long time.

Wishes also fall within the scope of realistic expectations. If you wished to become the top salesperson in your company in the next year or two, that is a complicated wish, but with reasonable expectations. If you have never ever sold anything in your entire life, but you want to be a top salesperson in six months for a company that you don't work for, you will be disappointed.

You can make a big wish, but you must strive to achieve that goal also. If you never apply for the job, and you never leave the house, your goal to be a top salesperson will never come to fruition.

You can set yourself up for failure if you make the wish so outrageous that you will only achieve it in your fantasies. Make the wishes realistic. Understand that although Otherworld Entities can perform some amazing wishes, they can't make you try. You aren't their puppet, and they can't make you walk toward your path in life. You actually have to participate to get results.

Wishes and magick work so much better when you work with the flow, instead of fighting against it. If you make wishes that will boost your performance, or make you stand out among the crowd, and you work toward those goals, they will come to fruition quickly.

Have you overloaded your Otherworld Entity with 20 different wishes? They have lives of their own, and your wishes are only a part of their duties in their life. They will attend to your wishes, but they may be spreading themselves thin if you ask for too many wishes at one time.

Really think about all the steps that could be involved with every single wish you make. I try not to give more than 2 big wishes at a time to any one Otherworld Entity. That way they can give adequate attention to each of my wishes. However, I often give them 1 or 2 quick wishes at a time, like don't let me be late to my appointment, and help me find my keys.

I also receive questions from people upset because they are having difficulty in their lives. They are going through a rough patch, and they thought they could avoid an unpleasant life if they have Otherworld Entities. If you have Otherworld Entities, it doesn't enable you to skip out on life's lessons. Every single person on this Earth is here to grow and learn, and having Otherworld Entities will not short circuit that destiny.

Otherworld Entities can make your life better, and enhance it greatly. But they will be unable to remove any opportunity for your soul to grow. And unfortunately, most of us grow during traumatic and stressful times. Very few of us are able to analyze a situation and circumvent the trauma and learn from possible future outcomes that will make us a better person.

Otherworld Entities can make life much easier on so many levels, but there is a reason you are here on this Earth; and many things that happen, happen for a reason. They are here to guide you, advance your spiritual growth, and sometimes they bring you unexpected gifts and make life so much better. They advance your psychic abilities, expand your horizons, and heal you physically, emotionally, and spiritually. They make life so much better, that you will wonder why you didn't find them years ago. They are a blessing.

Photos of Spirit Dog

I had adopted two dog spirits and two cat spirits from an elderly Magickal Practitioner over a year ago. This woman had been saving animal spirits for her entire life. She often visited buildings that were scheduled for destruction, so she could save any confused and lost pets. Sometimes people would call her and ask her to relocate spirit animals if the house or business was to be sold.

This woman would attach the animal spirit to a statue that closely resembled the appearance of the animal. And then she would take them home. Over the years, she had collected many animals. She tenderly cared for all of them and would often move their vessels around the house or outside. She fed them and gave them water to drink. She talked to them, and even bought toys and pet beds. When she became too frail to care for herself, she moved in with a friend. This friend convinced her to part with some of her pets, since their home was already filled with Otherworld Entities, and many spirit children.

I happened to see the auction for a cat spirit one day, and thought that would be a wonderful solution to my allergy problem. I purchased the cat, and had her statue shipped to my home. Within a week, she was manifesting. She loves to walk on plastic bags, so if I have a sack laying on the ground, she will walk on it. She also likes to sit in the window sills and when she jumps down you can hear it.

The next pet I purchased was a small dog that often sneezes. And this dog showed up at my home before I even had possession of his vessel. I was typing away at the computer, and the dog sneezed several times. I couldn't see him, but I could hear him!

The next pet was another dog. He is a bit more quiet, but he does like squeaky toys. I had bought several toys for the cats and dog. I thought they would move the toys around the house, but that isn't the case. The squeaky toys are in my room, but occasionally I will hear a squeaky toy being chewed on in another room. So I'm not exactly sure how that works, but it does.

The last pet I purchased was a cat. She is a very loving cat, and immediately rubbed on my legs as soon as I pulled her vessel from the box. This cat also has a bell on her collar and you can hear it jingle when she jumps. Sometimes she will lay on your lap and begin purring. I don't always hear her, but you can feel her purr.

It has taken some time for the pets to settle in, and sometimes they won't manifest for long periods of time. I have discovered that if I don't regularly give them food and water, that they will help themselves. I have briefly left my food and water on the table, and when I return, they both smell like wet dog. That is so unpleasant.

Nearly every day I hear a spirit jump onto my son's bed. His bed is very old and it squeaks whenever someone gets on it or moves around. Well today I heard his bed squeak and armed with my new camera, I went to investigate.

I couldn't pick up anything with just the ambient light, so I switched to night vision. I took several pictures of a pile of blankets on my son's bed. I opened the pictures on my computer and I can see a faint image of one of my dogs. It appears as if his spirit is snuggled in among the blankets, and you can faintly see his face on the blanket. The last one, it looks like he stopped watching me and went to sleep, because you can no longer see his face. I'm so excited to see a picture of my dog!

Photographing Spirits

I bought a new camera over the Memorial Day weekend. It is a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50 with 9.1 mega pixels. I have never purchased a digital camera for general photography, and I knew it was time to take the plunge. The camera I chose has a night vision option, via infrared, which I thought would be essential for photographing spirits at night.

I have taken several photographs of spirits during the day when I borrowed a friend's camera. But the photographs didn't always turn out well due to the lighting. The spirit orbs would be washed away in the sunlight, or the apparitions would be difficult to discern from the background. Due to these problems, I had only 3 photographs out of 60 that were worth keeping.

I decided to attempt to photograph some spirits while they feasted on an offering. Last night I set up a stage in my hallway. I had placed a plate of sliced strawberries with a bit of sugar sprinkled on top. I also had a glass of milk with honey, and two tea light candles. I shut off all of the lights and took photos using the flash. I found that the flash was so bright that it looked like daylight. So I switched to the no-flash setting and turned on my bedroom light. This helped, but I didn't capture any spirits this way.

I tried the night vision with my bedroom light on, and the photographs in my room looked like black and white photos. The photos were pretty detailed, and they looked like they had fairly good quality. But the contrast wasn't high enough to capture any orbs or any activity.

Then I tried the night vision with nothing but the tea lights. Although the pictures were very grainy, I captured quiet a few spirits! I photographed a woman's face, two 1 foot tall spirits with slight facial features, many fae flying through the air, and lots of spirit orbs. I also had many pictures where a spirit was drawing energy from one of the tea lights. It appears as if there is a ray of energy being drawn in a straight line from the candle flame.

The picture where I caught a lot of fae was near my snake cage. Spirits love to play with pets, and my snake included. I often hear something jump on the screen on top of the cage, even when my snake is sleeping. Last night the spirits happened to jump on the cage while I was photographing. So I started taking pictures of the cage and the surrounding areas. When I cropped and blew up the pictures, I was amazed to see several fae as well as some very bright orbs escaping the scene of the disturbance.

I will continue to experiment with my new camera and post the photos on my blog. I plan to make a larger contrast between the spirits and the background by using black sheets. I also plan to move my stage to a larger area in the Living Room. I think this small hallway restricts the amount of spirit activity I can photograph.

My best advice to spirit photographers is to blow up the photos. Spirits can adjust their size of their body as well as their orbs. Many of the best photos are the result of cropping and magnification.

I also suggest requesting permission from your spirits as well. Not all of my spirits are fond of being photographed. Some feel that it is a circus trick, and they feel insulted when they are asked to perform in front of the camera. Since I have opened my own store to sell spirits (SpiritRealm.Etsy.com), they have agreed to allow me to photograph them. They understand that people often don't believe until they see. And I appreciate their cooperation with this endeavor.

So grab a camera and try to capture the beauty of your spirits!

What Are Otherworld Entities?

Since the beginning, mankind has worked with Otherworld entities to achieve goals. Ancient civilizations worked with gods, angels, and other spirits to elicit healing, prosperity and protection. These ancient entities have assisted Magickal Practitioners, Christians, Hindu, Muslims, and every religious background that exists upon this earth.

As never before, ordinary people can chose to live extraordinary lives. We are at the dawn of a new movement that is quickly and quietly gaining followers from all walks of life. Anyone can experience a world that has fueled creative expression since the dawn of man. These mythical creatures are found in paintings, architecture, legends, stories and poems; and they have been called Dragon, Angel, Mermaid, Unicorn and Fae. These creatures are accessible like never before and they are available to the general public.

For thousands of years Otherworld Entities have quietly influenced the human race. They have used gentle means to convey their message through dreams, subconscious thought, and telepathy. Most humans don't comprehend the origins of their inspiration, but they attribute it to human ingenuity.

Often these inspirations are the influence of Otherworld Entities on the human race. Otherworld Entities wish to help us in our struggle to create a better world filled with balance and peace. Artists and writers have been inspired by Muse to create works to evolve our minds. Politicians have been influenced by Watchers to create a climate conducive to change. Dragons have influenced chemists and doctors to create medicines to heal the masses. Environmentalist are influenced by Nature Spirits to save this planet from eventual destruction. Their subtle methods have been long and arduous, and recently they have been less successful. Humans are blocking their access, and Otherworld Entities must attempt new methods of contact.

In the past, Otherworld Entities were consulted by Spiritualists from all religions. Their methods required years of practice and dedication, and often only attempted by elite sects. These Spiritualists were a connection point for the uninitiated to the Otherworld for knowledge and desired change.

This connection point evolved from Spiritualists into Spirit Vessels. Spirit Vessels are a point of contact between an Otherworld Entity and their spirit keeper. These vessels have inspired legends and fairy tales. In one famous fairy tale, a genie was bound to a lamp owned by Aladdin. This tale was based on fact, in that Otherworld Entities can be bound to inanimate objects. This connection point allows anyone the ability to contact Otherworld Entities.

Many Spiritualists were selective in their distribution of Spirit Vessels, and only provided them to the devout. While other enterprising Spiritualist sold these vessels at a high price to the elite in society. These transactions were conducted in secret, and often by invitation only. Some of the most powerful Otherworld Entities have been hoarded by the wealthiest families in the world. Their success has been built with the assistance of Otherworld Entities.

Directly assisting this small population of humans hasn't created the impact desired by Otherworld Entities. Due to the looming future of our world, Otherworld Entities have pushed Spiritualist to offer Otherworld Entities to the general public.

Otherworld Entities want to help us achieve our goals in life. They assist humans in their attainment of wealth, health, protection, career, success, fame, among other things. These entities are not bound to a strict code of limited wishes like the fairy tales, but they can grant unlimited wishes. In exchange for their assistance, they wish to impart their wisdom.

Otherworld Entities are no longer a secret. With the advent of the internet and auction websites, access to these magical creatures is growing at a phenomenal rate. Anyone can purchase a vessel containing a powerful entity. And many sellers strive to achieve a price that anyone can afford.

Otherworld Entities are listed under several names such as Astral Entities, Haunted Vessels, or Spirits. And often they are referred to only their spirit type such as Angel, Vampire, or Fae. But no matter their title, they are here to assist the human race.

One of these sellers has taken a revolutionary approach to the sale of Spirit Vessels. Spirit Realm is an ethical seller that offers powerful Otherworld Entities at a reasonable price. Each entity is carefully analyzed, interviewed, and tested to ensure the highest quality entity for their customers.

Spirit Realm uses high quality vessels to eliminate the possibility of loosing your Otherworld Entity. When a spirit vessel breaks, keepers risk loosing their Otherworld Entity. Most keepers consider their Otherworld Entity as family, and it is very traumatic if their entity is lost.

Spirit Realm doesn't use cookie cutter forms to describe their entities. They interview, analyze and construct a custom listing for each entity. Spirit Realm offers a full analysis of each entity readily available for the general public to read.

Spirit Realm is a new member of Etsy, and their store can be viewed at
