In my experience it depends.
For me I've gotten the reason is because
they are aware of the "plan" or "lesson" I'm
currently in or am learning and they don't want to
rob me or us from that experience
so information is purposely withheld.
Like, they are aware they could keep you
From the gift of your own experience
here. But these are spirits I'm familiar with.
They are in the light*.
They are connected to the all
and so they are aware of more things.
More information.
I've also gotten an answer that I'm not in
the correct "vibration" to see certain information.
They've said that I'm always shifting* and so
it's a matter of where I am consciously wise
that will dictate what information I align with.
Or
-what information I ((alllow)) myself to know
depending on where I am.
So until then they stay "current" and won't
go too far ahead of where you and I are
to also not spoil*

Are you saying that you are experiencing having an otherworldly entity talking to you ?

Have you done psychedelics before?

Ok you've proved yourself cool, now go piss up an other thread .
I asked them because they talked about "being connected to the all." That's a common feeling on psychedelics, so I wonder if they've experienced that and they're referencing that or what. But okay my guy.click to expand

Posted by Enfant-Terrible-IIPosted by xxAjuxxMakes sense, thanks for elaborating. Fits perfectly in with a lot of the things I learned and experienced on the topic (not psychic myself though)

But ok, personal lessons is one thing. But what if the spirit whose death was ruled accident, says she's actually been murdered... and when asked by whom or under what circumstances, the spirit clearly says "It's for you(people) to figure out".
Why say one thing that nobody can prove anyway at this point, but withold the only information that could possibly lead somewhere?
But yeah I know the spirit world can be coy af.
Reminds me of that "Twin Peaks" episode when the giant dude from the other realm helps the detective's murder investigation but provides only vague clues, saying "That's all we're allowed to say".

You are very welcome š
That's exactly what I have experienced!
And that sounds as though this spirit
knows the importance or significance
of their transition and us not knowing
specific details actually is beneficial at
the current time. If you know* then you
close off certain events and lessons
that your soul intended to go through
for growth by not* knowing.
It doesn't mean this information will
Forever be "locked" or "hidden" but
if it serves you from their perspective
to not know (yet) then that is how it will be.
(This is only from my own understanding
and experience though)
Was this spirit close
to you? I hope I am not rude in any way.

Yeah that was my 2nd train- of-thought too,
(about the spirit not disclosing specific information bc altough it seems related to her, the significance really lies in where the journey takes us following what she HAS disclosed)
...but I actually wanted to hear you say it and not speculate too much myself.
No you're not rude. Yes she was very close to me and I just received this information from a mutual colleague of ours that I haven't seen in a long time. From what I heard, she actually sees physical manifestations of ppl who've passed, which I assume is extremely rare among 'psychics'.

intentionally withold information about something they obviousely want or need to get across, while they are otherwise speaking as clearly as someone sitting across from you at the table?
What's the deal? Like what are the conditions?

Because spirits don't physically exist. It's all just ideas in your head. I'm not saying that when a human dies, they don't potentially meet up with other spirits. In the living world however they don't exist here anymore. It's all just you trying to make something exist that doesn't anymore. You are taking spirits memory or essence and mentally making up ideas through your own mind that aren't actually there.
That's just the way it is. Spirits and ghosts can't live in our world anymore. It's just you and your thoughts making stuff up to either fill a void in your personal life, or the void someone who died left in your life.

I donāt talk to spirits because there is no way of knowing which are good and which are bad, and bad spirits have motives just like bad people do.
Iām not opening that gate up to hear no extra voices lol š« like the religious people who say the voices or āspiritsā tell them to harm themselves or others.. (like the psychopath Christian mom who killed her own kids because the āspiritsā told her that her kids were zombies) šš evil as fuck. I feel like once youāve opened the door to one, you open the door to them all.. so I donāt fuck around with that.

Ah, not a moment too late. A cool mopey guy who's gonna come in here and tell me what MY experience has been.
I haven't even shared the sum of my experiences for you to come and make a summary or judgement or conjure up a neat all-worlds explanation. You are actually talking about yourself and your limited experience as a tiny mopey man who thinks the world revolves around what's in your mind. And that's a pretty small world.
I was like you. For 33 years I never had a single experience of anything beyond which what I can see or grasp or explain.
And the change didn't come in a time of my life when I needed it, it came at a time when everything was good, balanced, no big events or personal tragedies or traumas, I was content and happy.
And it wasn't something that came from within me. It's things I witnessed mostly in groups of other people in random situations, like family gatherings, normal everyday moments like that when you don't expect it. And that you cannot explain in any scientific terms.
I figured I wouldn't share exactly what happened in here bc it's simply personal and too long I would have to tell you about my friends and family and I've never been much for sharing my private life in here.
Only reason I brought it up is bc I was looking for specific answers from ppl who may know more. I'm only giving you my time and energy bc I was like you once, rooted in my own little perception of what reality is, having answers to everything, having no own experience of the other side..
I still cannot see or feel anything on my own. I tried once I learned there are other places, but I'm just not one of those ppl. Probably never will be. Like I assume you are not. I never had hallucinations of any sort in my life, even during sleep paralysis I know it wasn't reality the moment I wake up.
( My mind is just not wired to experienced unreal stuff as reality. That's also why I'd want to try acid, to see if I could ever truly trick my mind (or ego). )
So altough someone like you would equate it to a religious experience, one of belief, I've never been much for believing shit. I don't care about believing, it doesn't do anything to me. I want to know. And now, I know. And once you do, you cannot unknow.
Upon experiencing these things for the first time, people react in two different ways. They either shut off and never adddress it again bc it's too far from how much they're able and willing to stretch their own minds (or ego).. or they accept it and live with it like you with all other mundane everyday things one takes for granted.
So I don't want to take away your right to your own journey, like I said, I was like you and lived for 33 years before I had my first experience and even then it wasn't my experience, I was just there to witness it and I could do it with clarity, being myself and who I was the past 33 years, the stone cold realist with a huge ego. Yet, I saw experienced it all DESPITE that.
So my journey isn't an emotional one or rooted in wishful thinking related to any particular person or event. It is one of curiosity and fascination simply. Just like a scientist only I have no explanations or theories, I can just observe and feel how fucking cool it is.

All my family passed over so I gained an interest in connecting with the spirit world. For me, I ask for signsā¦some people call
it synchronicity but it works and proves to me theyāre around meā¦.
My mom passed in 2009 Iāve never ātalkedā with her but I absolutely agree that sheās around me. (Iāve had other friends/family members pass but none as significant as her) She was a heavy cigarette smoker, and sometimes Iāll get random whiffs of cigarette smoke and I feel that sheās with me, looking over me and my son and that gives me peace. ā¤ļø But you know how they say āthe veil is thinā I donāt know much about the spirit world but I have a 12th house stellium (Venus, Jupiter and Saturn are all in my 12th house) so maybe itās my Saturn in 12th house that causes a blockage. But in my gut/intuition I just feel like opening that door would be like opening a can of worms, so instead I am content with trusting that God and my angels are watching over with me without needing to ātalkā to them. Just knowing they are with me gives me peace.
As a nurse Iāve worked with people who have heard āvoicesā telling them to harm themselves or others, and of course theyāre diagnosed with schizophrenia.. but thatās the thing about spirit/mental world.. how do you know which is which? Is it really a mental disorder or did they open the door to spirits getting in their head? (Or vice versa.. people could think theyāre hearing from spirits when really theyāre just losing their minds).
I just feel itās playing with fire in some cases and Iād rather not take that chance. Iām not lacking in anything by keeping that door closed.click to expand

I think schizophrenia is quite noticeable because it comes with a host of other serious mental health issues. It is actually your in your head. Perhaps there is a weakness in your spiritual defences that can let bad things in and that's the voices, but I don't think so. I think it's really all in your head, your own mind is turning on you.
A spiritual experience is something quite different.
click to expand
Yeah Iāve never experienced either of the two (schizophrenia OR communing with spirits) so itās hard to tell the difference.. I just know as an observer from the outside, they both seem pretty similar to me. Of course I know they are not the same thing, I donāt mean to imply that they are.. but in both cases, someone hears voices that are not their own. Tarot card readers will often talk about they **hear** from spirits. So I assumed they meant they are actually hearing voices.
I agree that when you feel things in your gut, thatās more intuitive and spiritual. I am definitely tapped into my intuition and gut feelings are rarely wrong.. I can feel when something is off, Iāll get sick to my stomach and my intuition has proven to be true many times. In those cases I do believe Iām hearing from God and my angels but not in a literal sense.

i donāt know if theyāre intentionally withholding information but usually when i wanna know something ,i ask the universe to give me a sign of some sort lol so you could try asking the universe for a clear sign and theyāll try to give it to you in a way youāll recognize.
when you do this, youāre not talking to anyone in particular lol just the universe. i usually end up receiving some sorta sign.
i once had the weirdest experience tho. i was getting confusing opinions that made very little sense from a bunch of different doctors about a medical condition i had at the time and no one seemed to know what was going on. i got tired of going to all these doctors appointments and returning without answers.
but then , i was lying on my bed one afternoon and i heard a voice in my head mention a doctorās name that i havenāt ever seen or heard of before. just like randomly out of nowhere.
i got curious so i decided to google ādr.____, (my city)ā and lo and behold, he actually existed. he was a real doctor who was in my city but i never knew of him (he was a lesser known doctor compared to the others, i think?) i contacted him that same day and he ended up saying something completely different from all the other doctors i had spoken to. while everyone else misdiagnosed me, this guy gave me the right info and with his advice and help, my condition was solved.
so yeah that was a little strange experience i once had lol i dunno if spirit or whoever had anything to do with it but itās been several years and i still wonder what that was.

What's the deal? Like what are the conditions?
This in itself disproves the idea that spirits/souls of the deceased are talking to us.
If they did, we would have had by now the answers to some fundamental questions about "life after death", and these answers would have been consistent among thousands of such "communications".
But...
The human brain could hear voices that don't exist for a large number of reasons.
-- Firstly, we all have an internal voice entertaining us. We could easily create imaginary dialogues with real people.
--Once your brain is screwed--even just a little--it starts hearing voices. Not only in schizofrenia, but also dementia, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorder. I just visited my mum who has dementia. She's still well enough to live on her own, but hears voices almost constantly, and she absolutely believes that they are real and often argues with them.
--Some otherwise normal people hear voices before falling asleep or waking up.
The voices in our head "withhold information" simply because we don't know the relevant information. Our brain can only make up new things based on what it already knows.click to expand

And while we're on the topic of 'psychic' people, they are not above the human condition just bc they are psychic.
* There are well-adjusted, well-meaning psychics
* There are frauds
* There are narcissistic/"empath" ones
* There are mentally unstable ones
* There are legit ones who have shitty character and will make things up when they don't get anything through
* There are legit ones who are also schizophrenic and hear their own voices
People with psychic abilities are not superhumans. They come from all walks of life and they have their own journey. You can have psychic abilities and still be a lying scumbag most of the time. One doesn't exclude the other.

There is mental illness. There is schizophrenia. There are subjective factors. Yes, I should know, I work in psychiatry. I see it daily. But to think you can explain away ALL paranormal experiences as being a product of the mind is just plain ignorant.
That is your ego talking. You are trying to rationalize and explain away something you cannot even begin to fathom in your current form. How arrogant of you to think you have every corner of our existence figured out.
You are trying to draw rules and conclusions about a hypothetical afterlife based on your limited human experience on this earth and in these dimensions. That is a futile endeavor. Even if we knew for fact there was an afterelife, there are no certainties that we would know much more about everything or anything once weāve passed on to the other side. The other side could just be another chapter in our existence.
People usually assume that when we die , we are granted acess to unlimited knowledge. And then ā like you said ā the dead should be able to communicate to us, the living, and tell us everything we ever wanted to know. Itās best to leave such fantasies and illusions at the door, like I said, we have absolutely 0 clue about what goes on beyond and what rules and laws apply there. And weāll probably never know in our human form so itās meaningless to try and explain it , even for someone like me who approaches these things with a scientific curiousity rather than religious certainty.
Your explanations ā how you lump together ALL paranormal phenomena simply as āvoicesā - are ridiculous and naive to put it mildly. You are like that character in a horror movie who would try and explain away Reaganās possession as her ājust having a coldā while her head is twisting back and sheās puking Satanās semen. lol
Voices, mental illness, drugs, etc are all subjective experiences, yes. But what about things that happen outside in the physical world?
Because if you have seen poltergeist phenomena in its various forms up close, like me ā not only witnessed by yourself but several people present ā at several occassions, to the point itās become an unspectacular thing, it is not about believing (or not) anymore. It is about knowing.
I am not talking about āwind draftā or creaking stairs, I am talking about forceful activity; from small stuff like intentional knocks as way of communication, to tablecloths being forcefully punched from under the table when thereās nothing there, kitchen chairs with people sitting in them being dragged across the floor, cars not starting when people are leaving then suddenly all starting at once, framed photographs materializing mid-air and falling to the ground, etc. etc. Thereās just tons of it, most of the time witnessed by several people at once. Me included.
Is there a theory of everything that you can cnonjure up in your mind that would explain all that activity happening around one household?
Even if you are open to it, it's one thing trusting someone's word (and their mental state) and believing what they are saying.... and another thing witnessing it for yourself, knowing it undisputably. I remember my first legit experience, I wasn't afraid, my mind was just having a hard time compartmentalizing it. It felt like I witnessed an everyday thing because it happened in real time, in reality, just like any other everyday thing. It's hard to explain.
Iāll say it again, faith and belief has never had any significant place in my life. I either know something or I donāt. Anything else is uninteresting to me.
And this I know for sure:
1. There is some sort of afterlife
2. The deceased are able to interact with us and have an actual exchange of information in real time, like a conversation of sorts. An intelligent exchange.

Whoa! A lot of projecting and attributing to me words/ideas that I didn't express. I was coming from a neutral, rational ground, looking at it objectively.
I agree with your 1, 2, 3 (at the end of your rant). If you would have bothered to read my last response on dxpnet, on the other thread that approaches this topic, you would have known that I had reasons to think that my deceasead father interacted with me soon after his death. Obviously, there could be other, more mundane explanations for what was going on.
We need to approach any paranormal activity we come across (personal or through reading) with our rational mind, not wishful thinking. Wishful thinking does a GREAT DISSERVICE by producing a lot of noise that will in fact cover up those genuine occurrences, if they do exist.

As for the dead talking to the living, could you recommend a book or study that looked into thousands of such cases and draw some conclusions about what they have in common? For example, NDE experiences by different people have certain things in common, and this is how we know that they were not simply delusions. How about the information extracted from those who truly passed?

I sleep with the Holy Bible next to me in my night stand, and the Satanic Bible under my bed. I have dozens of different totems around my house which each have a different spiritual meaning. I keep them around to show any spirit they are honored, and safe. In hopes they feel free to move on from this world.
Spirits shouldn't exist in your life, and if they do, you are either selfish by forcing them to still exist in the living realm, or doing something extreamly wrong.

I don't know what thread you've been reading or how any of this relates to what I said.
And you are wrong. Spirits of deceased ones linger around perfectly well on their own without anyone "forcing them to still exist in the living realm" or sometimes even wanting them here . A lot of the times, the living are actively seeking to get them to move on.

I personally feel you are wrong. You are taking a bit of ego, and fusing with a void in your life. You aren't some special human that sees spirits. Exactly like my post, you look somewhat crazy by making stuff up in your head, and expressing how you feel like you are haunted, or watched over by spirits. They are simply dead, and not here anymore. Just accept that and stop being delusional.
Again, I shouldn't act like I know the things you've seen from your own point of view are wrong, because its not PC in today's day and age, but I truly do. You've convinced yourself that delusions, illusions, coincidence, or even dreams are the spirits of people you knew. They aren't though. It's all just made up in your head. I'll give you the aspect of in dreams you felt like you seen a spirit from the past though if that's the case. I have those often. There is 0% chance you've seen one in your woken state, unless you were on drugs or something. Which I'll also accept. If you've seen spirits in dreams, or while taking drugs I get that.
You've never seen one awake and sober though. Unless you have an actual mental disorder, or really enjoy messing with people. If normal sober people could see spirits, it would be known and accepted world wide. Otherwise, you just sound crazy, and you're not special in any way, and don't have some superpower to speak with the dead. You're just a basic human that posts on a dying astrology forum, just like me.

Iām sensing some strong correlation of those supposedly being able to communicate with spirits having way too much time on their hands. I mean look at those who play ouiji boards. Too much time to kill I tell ya

People who can sense, perceive or in other ways comnunicate with spirits don't need ouiji boards. You must be thinking of drunk teenagers.
