Why Certain Locations Have More Paranormal Activity Than Others

April 28, 2021 By healings-admin Leave a Comment

Paranormal activity is a fascinating phenomenon which occurs across the globe. Otherwise unexplainable instances of objects moving or disappearing and reappearing in strange places, electronics turning on or off by themselves, the sound of laughter or footsteps with no human being in sight, and the feeling of a presence or touch when no human is present, are all examples of paranormal activity. Certain locations have more activity than others. They do not have to have strong ties to historical events for activity to be strong. Where the activity occurs and why depends upon many factors. The most important underlying factors are the strength of the emotions experienced in life, both positive and negative, by the people in spirit who are visiting the location or who have left an imprint of energy from past events.

Ghosts Versus Spirits

When people report seeing the same being in spirit, a person or animal, performing the same repetitive action, this is referred to as a ghost. It is an imprint of energy left behind by a person or animal that is much like a hologram. It is not an active being in spirit. Active spirits are the souls of beings in energy form. They can visit us here on Earth and they can manipulate energy on this dimension to alert us of their presence, often referred to as signs or paranormal activity. They employ all the senses when letting us know when they are around, including but not limited to, placing scents in the air, moving objects, changing the temperature in a space, providing a feeling of their presence, projecting music or their voice for us to hear, producing the smell and taste of a favorite food, and placing visual objects in our path that are reminders of them. For spirit mediums, the experience is heightened and fine-tuned with incredible details that can also be experienced using the extrasensory senses.

Examples of Paranormal Activity

To help you to better understand what paranormal activity consists of, here are some examples:

Unexplained electrical disturbances – phones, televisions lights, computers, ceiling fans, appliances, car windows and radios acting up
Objects or items moved – doors opening/closing, pictures tilted or knocked over or off walls, items (especially jewelry) missing and returned in strange places
Seemingly random or coincidental presence of feathers, coins, ladybugs, hummingbirds, butterflies, cardinals
Scents in the air which do not belong – perfume, cigarette or pipe smoke, food cooking
The strong feeling of a presence when no human or animal presence is near
Shadow people or flashes of a presence seen out of the corner of the eye
Orbs of energy – seen in person or in photographs or videos
Items appearing out of nowhere
Sounds without a known source – footsteps, creaking stairs, knock on a wall or door, a voice in your ear, music playing

Reasons for Increased Paranormal Activity

Emotionally Powerful Events

When people refer to paranormal activity, they often refer to areas in which there have been powerful negative events, such as those that occurred on battlefields, murder and suicide scenes, prisons and prisoner encampments, and abolished mental health institutions and old hospitals. All these locations usually have strong imprints of energy left behind by those who suffered or experienced traumatic events. This is because of the harrowing emotional toll experienced by the souls. Mediums can pick up on the information contained within the energy imprints by accessing the energies left behind from the past, as well as by communicating directly with those in spirit who lived through the tribulations. Locations that have had powerful peaceful or joyful events can also exhibit paranormal activity or energies. The experiences of history can be picked up on by spirit mediums who used their gifts to learn about the past through communication with active spirits. The energies in a place where momentous positive events occurred often emit a feeling of peace immediately upon entering the space. The signs from spirits in these locations are also much more serene and uplifting.

Loved Ones in Spirit Visiting

While events from history, both positive and negative, play an important role as to why certain locations have more active spirits exhibiting paranormal activity, it is not the only factor which determines the level of activity. This is because spirits are not limited to earthly locations. They can visit anywhere and often do, especially loved ones in spirit connected with people on Earth through the relationships they had with them while living. Loved ones in spirit love to visit their loved ones on Earth. It is their strong connection with those on earth which draws them to visit to see how everyone is doing, to share their love and support, and to make their presence known through signs, as well as to attempt to get a message through to provide guidance or navigation. Much of the paranormal activity people experience in their homes, workplaces, vehicles, and more comes from personal loved ones in spirit. Activity can be strongest immediately following the passing of a loved one, when they are trying to get an important message through, a week or two before or after visiting a spirit medium, and when there is a soul who did not immediately cross over into Heaven. In the case of loved ones in spirit visiting from the Other Side, there is usually a feeling of upliftment accompanying their presence. When it is a soul who needs help with their crossing, there is a heavy feeling in the location. This is because they have not yet fully let go of their earthly presence and are frustrated about their situation. People sometimes refer to the activity exhibited by souls who have not crossed as poltergeists. This is because these upset souls are trying everything they can to get the attention of the living to help them, such as slamming doors and breaking several items. They are not mad at the living. They need assistance, which is best provided by a professional spirit medium trained in helping temporarily lost souls in their transition to Heaven.

The Presence of a Spirit Medium or Someone Sensitive to the Energies from the Other Side

When there is a spirit medium or someone gifted with extrasensory perception or is sensitive to the energies from the Other Side, paranormal activity tends to increase. The beings in spirit are aware that the gifted individual is also aware of their presence. When encountering someone who can communicate directly with them, they become excited, which is why the paranormal activity increases.

No Fear

When investigating various locations, there is no fear of who or what I will encounter. I enter the situations with an open mind, heart, and soul with the mindset of respectfully gathering information about history and the people or animals who are present in an objective way. The connection of spirit communication is rooted in love, not fear, and approaching these situations with the mindset I described allows for open communication across dimensions.

What it Means When a Space is Cleansed of Energies

Over time, negative or unwanted energies can accumulate in a space. This can be due to powerful negative events or people who consistently behave in negative ways. A location can be cleansed of residual energies by professional spirit mediums and healers. When a cleansing of energy is performed, negative and unwanted energies are removed and replaced with positive, peaceful energy. In essence, the space is healed and cleansed, creating a welcoming space for people and animals and a new beginning for the location. Immediately upon entering a location, I can sense whether the space has been energetically cleansed. The history of the location and the people in spirit are still connected to the space; however, it takes a few extra moments to use my gifts to probe below the cleansed layer to connect with the information which exists beyond the healed atmosphere.

Why Our Connection with the Other Side Matters

Our connection with the Other Side is an integral part of our world. As human beings on a spiritual journey, part of our purpose is to seek out our reasons for being. By being connected to the Other Side and actively communicating with beings in spirit, we can be the recipients of information about what exists beyond life on earth, as well as the true meaning of our existence. The benefits go beyond knowing that we continue to exist after life on earth. They help us to tap into the energies and knowledge of the universe to assist humankind.

Exploring Paranormal Energies and History at Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, PA

March 28, 2021 By healings-admin 2 Comments

Eastern State Penitentiary Cellblock 7 — ***Cellblock 7 at Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia, PA***

A few years ago, a friend of mine asked me if I would like to visit the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The penitentiary was in operation for 142 years starting in the 1800s and closing in the 1970s. While it was in operation, thousands of inmates inhabited its cell blocks for crimes as minor as petty larceny and as major as multiple murders. After it closed in the 1970s, it lay abandoned for years. While actively in operation, it was designated as an official historical site and, because of that, it retained a protected status. In the 1980s, the penitentiary was reopened for tours. Over the past few decades, restoration of the site has been underway. Many people claim that it is haunted by the souls of those who were imprisoned there. Because I was curious about the energies that I would pick up on there, as well as the spirits of those who were incarcerated at this historic institution, I agreed to take a day trip and open myself up to a unique way of learning about people of the past.

Why Explore the Darker Side of Human Nature?

Given that I would be connecting in spirit with some of the country’s most nefarious criminals, some people may question why I would voluntarily expose myself to the inevitable scenes of violence, negative feelings, troubled personalities, and more that the men and women of the past would send me. My answer to this is simple: I believe in learning from every experience in life. Both positive and negative experiences have a lot to teach us. As a spirit medium, I am exposed to many cathartic experiences that I do not necessarily want to see, feel, or hear; however, it is only through research and experiences with beings from all walks of life that I can learn about, and strive to understand, the depth of human nature.

Exploring the Past through Mediumship

Walking into the castle-like fortress, I opened up to spirit in order to reach back into the past to see what it was like for prisoners who were incarcerated there. I mentally sent the intention to my spirit guides to focus on the earliest days of the penitentiary. Immediately, I picked up on the energies of the people who were initially housed in the cells. Extreme loneliness, depression, and even madness pervaded the souls while in residence. They showed me how each of them was confined to an individual cell with no contact with human beings, other than limited communication with the guards and the chaplain. Due to the lack of human contact, they often spoke out loud to themselves and suffered from hallucinations. Even though their experiences were difficult, I was able to receive the information in an objective way, as though I was observing it as a scientist or doctor would when reviewing cases. They showed me their penitence in solitary confinement did not reform them, but rather depleted them of their humanness and their ability to relate to others. Reality became a blur. They no longer knew what was real or what was a figment of their imagination. Paranoia and desperation clawed at their souls. It did not matter whether they committed petty crimes or the more serious crime of murder, each one of them was kept in solitary confinement for years at a time. Some of them adjusted, but most of them suffered from delusions and deep depression.

Reform through Solitary Penitence – A Revolutionary Idea

When the facility opened, the founders thought that the best way to reform convicted felons was penitence in solitude. The idea was that this would give the person time to think about their crimes and search for forgiveness from God. This revolutionary idea was conceived by the Quakers as an answer to the problems that emerged from keeping prisoners in one holding cell together. In the past, prisoners who congregated together usually emerged from prison with an in-depth education in crime. However, before the construction of the final cellblocks from the original design was completed, the architecture was altered to include a second story. The number of people incarcerated had greatly increased, and it was not long before solitary confinement was no longer possible.

Cellblock Five

Eastern State Penitentiary is a unique structure. It has a round rotunda in the center of the building from which the main cellblocks spread outwards, making it look like a large asterisk from an aerial view. When standing in the center, you can see down the corridors of each of the main cellblocks. The design was created to allow guards to see all the wards from the center rotunda. It was used as a model for many penitentiaries throughout the world. When I glanced toward cellblock five, I picked up on strong negative energies. I kept receiving the impression that a large riot originated on that cellblock, possibly the last riot that took place in 1961. There was a lot of violence I was picking up on and mistreatment of the inmates, which lead to the riot. I performed some research on this and have not yet uncovered whether the last major riot started there.

Not Ghosts or Lost Souls

There was an incredible amount of much energy and information I was picking up from the spirits who were sharing information with me about their stay at the penitentiary. All the souls I communicated with that day had crossed over into Heaven. It is important to note that there are levels to Heaven. The younger the soul, meaning they have not reincarnated many times and operate from a place of fear, greed, and selfishness, the lower the level. The older the soul who has reincarnated many times and who operates from a place of love, the higher the level. Souls on lower levels cannot visit the higher levels; however, souls on higher levels can visit the lower ones. The souls I was communicating with were not ghosts or souls lost or stuck in purgatory, nor were they in “hell.” Hell is a concept designed to instill fear as a way of preventing negative behavior on Earth. The demeanor of these souls was calm as they conveyed the stories of their lives. I had no fear at all that they would attempt to harm me. This was an exchange of information in which I was learning about what happened to them while incarcerated, as well as what happened to them after they passed. Energetically, they felt lighter than those who have not crossed over into Heaven. Souls who are temporarily stuck between Heaven and Earth feel energetically heavy due to their unresolved sadness and frustration. They do eventually cross over to receive healing, and it is often the angels who help guide them back to Heaven’s gateway.

Death Row Stories from the Other Side

The most interesting experience I had was on Death Row. As soon as I walked in, I felt several souls rush forward wanting to communicate with me. I sensed that some of them were maniacal or deranged during their lifetimes on Earth. Several had suffered from acute mental illness that led to an extreme lack of empathy in their lifetimes for their victims. I asked one man to step forward to tell me his story. He sent me lightning-quick flashes of images of him committing his crimes accompanied by three words: murder, rape, molestation. I could smell the smoke of his cigarettes in the air and sense that he was about 5’10” or 5’11”. He was decidedly thin with pock-marked skin, and he walked in a laidback manner in which he slightly leaned back making his legs and hips move forward before the rest of him. He was remorseful. In fact, all of them were. I did not realize it at first, but as soon as I had set foot on death row and reached out to those in spirit, my head bent down to the point where I was looking at the floor. A feeling of shame was transmitted through my gifts of mediumship from them. My friend who was with me commented on how my head remained in that position the entire time I was in the cellblock. It is interesting to note that the man in spirit told me that all the men who were on death row at the penitentiary belonged there, not just for the crimes they were convicted of, but also for the ones they got away with.

Healing in Heaven

Despite what people think, all souls have the option to go to Heaven and receive healing. God is the ultimate forgiver, and when people commit heinous crimes on Earth, they are given the opportunity to heal and do better next time. We experience many lifetimes to learn and grow as souls. During our life reviews, we see and experience the effect of our actions on others. This is a learning experience to show us what we did well and what we need to work on to evolve. Souls that behave in a negative fashion are usually very young souls that are living from a place of fear rather than love. That fear drives them to perform acts that harm themselves and others. Perhaps the environment in which they are raised, as well as their mental stability, impact their behaviors. That is not to say that the parents are to blame. There could be many extenuating factors present in society that drives someone to choose a life of crime. We are all in control of our choices, though, and when people are mentally unstable or are continually exposed to negative circumstances, sometimes people choose to take the low road or the road that gets them to where they want to be regardless of the consequences. Judgments such as that often have severe consequences not only for the people who are their victims, but also for the perpetrator because crimes committed against others are crimes committed against themselves.

Spiritual Explorations Lead to Enlightenment

When I originally agreed to the exploratory field trip to Eastern State Penitentiary, I was not sure what I would experience or be shown by those in spirit. I was not concerned about demons, negative entities, or possession, because these are human concepts born out of fear. I knew that I would see, feel, and hear information through my spiritual connection that would be unpleasant and, at times, horrific. I also knew I could turn off the connection at any time. If I felt I needed extra assistance, I could always call on God or Archangel Michael to help extricate me from a negative spiritual situation. I rest comfortably in the knowledge that I am safe and loved by God and the Angels. I know that fear has the power to create illusions that seem very real. One of our tasks on Earth is to learn how to manage the emotions that are based in fear to navigate past them to the truth. Through my spiritual connections and mediumship abilities, I have learned that all of us are connected to one another through the most powerful energy in the universe love. All the work I do originates from love, as does my connection to every being. We are all spiritual beings on a human journey of the soul. Moreover, we are learning lessons that enable us to grow and evolve in the light and love from which we were created. Using my gifts of mediumship in this way can provide amazing insights into human nature and history, the journey of our souls, and what exists beyond life on Earth. It is my mission to bring forth as much information and knowledge as I can in this lifetime to help as many people as possible to have a more thorough understanding of our existence.
