Have I Disturbed Some One? (Revisited), page 12

Very understandable Val. This is why I say lay out ground rules.

In my home, things REALLY got scary for a while. When I learned enough and started actully using my "latent abilities" and working with a paranormal investigator/reseacher who happens to be a Shaman "ghost dancer" in my area, I got somewhere. One of the first things I learned was to be "proactive" yet, treat them as a friend or family member (after all, you have to "live" under the same roof as them at least temporarily).

Here are some examples of ground rules (and they do work if you do not do this in anger, I have used them and continue to).

Do not enter xxxxx room. That room is off limits to anyone not in the living world. (you may use your daughters room. This will keep them out of her room or at least should if you do things nicely)

Do not intentionally scare (insert a name or names here, even ages if you want no one under XX years old to know what is going on).

Do not break ANYTHING. If anything gets broken, you will be unwelcome here.

No noise shall be made after XXX oclock. (I had to use this as they would keep me awake two or three nights a week making noise that sounded like a barroom brawl in my living room, I said, after ten, no noise shall be made unless to warn me and my family of danger.... it worked and continues to work well)

These are a few rule, make up your own too. But when you start, tell them you have a few rules you wish for them to follow, then give the rules. When finished, tell them, you don't mind them hannging around as long as the rules are ALWAYS followed.

My hunch is one of two things will happen (as long as no emotion is shown during the converstaion).
1. You will have a much less scary home as they will comply to the rules as you are being personable with them and they will understand.

2. It or they (if you have more than one......) will leave permanently. I had a few leave. They didn't like my rules but, since the rules were there, rather than breaking them, they left. I still have many around, but they follow the rules.

The biggest things to remember are to show absolutely NO emotion, and be personable. Try to act like you care about them. Talk to them. Like I say, it feels weird for a while, but, they are listening. I talk to mine quite often. It makes them feel like part of the family. Tell them when good things have happened, tell them when you feel down.

They are listening. I know it to be true, as I have recently talked to my spirits, and the female who I percieve as a caring "motherly" figure, has been consoling me since the death of my grand father slightly over a week ago. She is very protective of me too, and has been since we started talking.

I know Springer is prolly thinking I am a fruitcake and I am in need of a straight jacket, but, I have lived through this stuff, and I know what I am talking about. It will work if done right.

I encourage it, but like I say, be kind and caring. Don't come running in with both barrels blasting.

Blessed Be
