I tucked my daughter, Ariah, under the bed covers and she immediately pulled them up around her face. Her eyes grew wide.
“I’m scared momma.”
“Of what?” I asked.
“Boos.”
“Show me where Ariah.”
She points to the dark corner at the ceiling. Personally, I don’t see anything, but say nothing. This child has surprised me before with a sense of things beyond my own comprehension. I hold out my hand and pretend to be spraying the corner with an aerosol can.
“Pssssssssshhhhhhhhh. There, I sprayed it with the white light, monster repellant.” She giggled. Then I continued, “No more boos. To be sure, I’m calling all angels to guard the four corners of your room and let’s have one guard your door and one stand at your window. Do you see them?”
She nodded her head in agreement.
“Want to say a prayer with me?”
“Okayyyyyyy,” she said in a reluctant voice.
“I welcome into this sacred space all angels of the white light to protect me while I sleep peacefully through the night until the morning light.”
‘Light.’ She whispered.
I get up to leave the room and she whined that she didn’t want to be left alone. So I curled up alongside her in bed. Before I know it, I am waking a few hours later where I found her fast asleep. Slowly I climbed off the bed, making sure not to wake her, and stepped on princess figurine that stuck to the bottom of my foot. Kicking it from my foot, I whispered an off remark out loud while stumbling into the other room. I make a beeline over to my laptop to look over incoming emails before deciding to retired to bed. An email titled ‘SCARED’ caught my attention, especially when I saw it was from an old military client.
Dear Laura,
I have a slight problem. For the past few months, I have been scared out of my mind to sleep in my room. I think there is a spirit that is lingering in my room and will not let me go to sleep. At night, I lay awake listening to it walk around my room and I can feel it staring at me from my vanity area. I pray to God and Jesus to tell it to go away but it never listens. This is not a joke. During the holiday, I went home to see my Grandma and told her the story. She told me that I needed to sprinkle holy water in my room and that the spirit would go away. She gave me a bottle of holy water. When I did what she told me to do, the presence got worse and went into my suitemate’s room and started bothering her too. Every night, even though I feel safe, I have horrible nightmares. I need to know if there is anything else I can do. Thank you for your time.
Leah
I scratched my head debating whether or not to answer now or wait till morning. I’m so sleepy, but considering her circumstances at this late hour, I understood her plight and was inspired to draft a quick email.
I understand this isn’t a joke Leah. I fell asleep under my covers fearing spirits hovering over me for years. The unknown frightens us. Especially if we can sense them intuitively, without tangible evidence of using our earthly senses, watching over us (just like that kid in ‘The Sixth Sense’). Most likely they are a guide and our dearly departed. If not, they seek out an intermediary, like a medium, between worlds to receive their message.
If they are ‘darker entities’ – you will recognize the following symptoms: ill feeling in the pit of your stomach, feverish, tired, stomach ache, foul smells emitting from nowhere, temperatures drop drastically (freezing in a controlled temperature environment), prickly feelings on skin, etc. If this is your case, it is important you take your power back by stop being scared. These spirits cling to fear. So immediately shift your energy and tell them, aloud, to go away. They cannot remain in your presence if you ask them to leave. Bottom line, no one or nothing (physical/non-physical) can harm you unless you give them permission. Remember that as a soldier!
How you manage FEAR is to keep your attitude up. For instances, taking care of yourself emotionally, mentally, physically like the basics: exercising, eating right, maintaining positive relations, getting outside, watch funny movies, listen to music, etc…most importantly, do things you love to do. If you mope around, depressed, before long you will surely attract darker entities and this include in the human form too!
I’m half way done composing this email when I get the impression of a warm breeze and a scent of flowers permeated the air. I feel certain angels inspired me to write her the following instructions.
I recommend you and your suite mate do the following before resting at night:
1) With your eyes closed, visualize a white light, like the sun, shine on you melting all tension and insecurities away. Then take a deep inhale of light and cast away all your concerns to the heavens on your exhale. See them drift away until they disappear.
2) Then state the following, “I welcome into my sacred space all angels of the white light (and whomever you feel inclined to call such as God, Jesus, Mother Mary, and or your Grandmother!) to protect me while I sleep peacefully through the night until the morning light.”
3) Optional: Sometimes I ask angels to guard over the four corners of my home for protection too!
Before you realize it, you will wake up in the morning feeling rested. Promise. Pleading to the heavens to make this spirit leave and dashing holy water didn’t solve your problem because this spirit wasn’t supposed to go at this time. They are trying to get a message across to you. My sense is that it may be a warning in association with your nightmares (if that makes sense to you). I get a hit that it may have been another soldier associated with the brigade: Male. Most likely he lived in the dormitories you live in now. You may want to ask around if there was a suicide in the building.
PS Praying for your safe journey over there…Are you still with that boyfriend?
And is he the pilot I saw you marrying earlier?
Peace to you, Laura
After repeating that affirmation to sleep to the heavens two times in one night, I lie down on my bed and fell fast asleep. Peacefully. Over a month had past and I had nearly forgotten my conversation with Leah until a Facebook thread popped into my inbox. It was a drawing by Leah and how happy she was to rediscover her passion for art. I was grateful she had taken my advice to heart and began pursuing the things she loved most. Shortly after receiving that message, I received another message from her directed to me personally.
So every night, before I go to sleep, I do the things you asked me to do. I sleep peacefully now, but still having weird dreams. I think it is sort of brought on by my medication.
Anyway, I did check into the dorms to find out that a boy had turned 21 and passed away on his birthday night from doing to many shots in our dormitory. He died in the early 2000’s. I’m not sure if it was that spirit? Sometimes when I am alone in my room, I can feel someone intimately touch my cheek. I keep my room above 78 degrees because I love the heat. This touch is a cold feeling that automatically makes my hair stand up. I am not afraid, now, though, am I reading too much into it?
PS I am still with my boyfriend/fiancée. He is in the Marines. He proposed last August.
Best, Leah
“I don’t think he is the one.” I mumbled to myself, “I’m pretty sure he was to be a pilot.”
I scrambled out the door and headed over to yoga. While stretching in class, my mind wanders about the dynamics of Leah on medication and the suicidal spirit hovering around. Then my mind flashed back to an earlier Facebook thread of how Leah announced to me and other family members that since being sent overseas, how unhappy she was about life. A light bulb went off. I raced home and wrote her another message immediately.
For the sake of our recent discussions, what kind of medication are you on Leah?
Peace, Laura Lee
Within a couple hours her response confirmed my fear.
I am on Celexa, an antidepressant. I tried to go off because I thought I didn’t’ need them but I had a really bad case of withdraw and went back on them. It’s been beautiful outside today…..hopefully it stays that way.
Leah
I replied immediately upon seeing her email.
That’s what I suspected. The spirit hovers because of your depression/suicidal feelings. He, in fact, could be the cause of your depression, because he is in your field. His vibration is low due to his own suicide. Additionally, your anxiety of the relocation isn’t helping much with your energy levels lately. This is serious enough for you to make life changes as I suggested in our earlier email. It is important you remain on your doctor’s regime with medication, but if you are feeling anxiety about your occupation in a new locale, it is important to talk with a chaplain or therapist asap! I know your life is mainly dictated by the military now, but when you do have free time, continue to engage yourself in activities that feed your heart and soul: Like your art. Finally, do get outside to enjoy the good weather. The sun is a natural healer. Keep me posted.
Laura
Again, it took awhile before receiving a response, so I reached out to call her to follow up since our last correspondence.
“I don’t sense the spirit anymore and sleep peacefully” Leah said.
“That’s good news. Really, that boy’s spirit served you well. He helped you face that funk and offered your soul growth.”
“Yeah,” she replied, “I started seeing the company chaplain and he’s made me see things in a whole new way. Like not only being scared of the other spirit but being scared of my own spirit.” She sounded upbeat. “He encouraged me, too, to buy a journal where I can draw anytime I feel anxiety over my transition.”
Goose bumps come over me, which is always a good sign of things to come.
“I feel good vibes with the steps you’re taking Leah. Who knows, you could be embarking on a new career for yourself with drawing.”
“Yeah, I think so too,” she says enthusiastically, “I almost forgot to tell you, I was asked to draw a new logo for the company.”
