When I was 5 years old my grandfather died. The day of the funeral we went to my grandparents house. Of course no one told me he died, I could not even grasp the idea of death. Apparently I was eating in the dinning room I saw my grandfather walk across the room and disappear. Apparently I ran and told everyone I saw him walk across the room.I have no memory of this. Over the summer feeling this ominous feeling in my home. I started panicking every night. I've had a lot of sleep paralysis. Seeing things in the corner of my eye. Chills down my back. At one point I've seen blue and orange flashes that almost look like electricity. I thought I was losing my mind. My mother understood what I was going through because she use to feel these things when she was younger. I even had this dream of a this woman who was soaking wet and I was telling her to leave me alone and she just screamed and attacked me. I had a break down where I prayed for these feelings to stop. It did. Everyone is normal now, on rare occasions I have these feeling but I just block them out.. Are their any aspects that give some kind of esp? IP: Logged |

Doesn't sound like a spiritual encounter, i think your body/mind copes with distress by allowing yourself to form illusions. Its not a bad thing, everyone copes with distress differently.. i'd get that in check though.Maybe you did not deal with his death in a healthy way. PS maybe you suppressed something traumatic that has to deal with drowning. Could be a possibility. You should see a therapist, work your way towards opening up that passage way, your dreams/nightmares in this case could be a clear indication of your mind/body not being sufficient enough to block w/e trauma you may have seen/experienced at whatever point in your life.

Another misconception - the assumption that therapy is only for some form of drama in ones life. You don't need to have a dramatic or traumatic life to be in therapy. It's very helpful, especially aiding in ones self-awareness and progression - yes we all get there at some point some others don't, therapy speedens the process a bit more helps you dive into areas and aspects in your life that do promote growth in areas you'd never think of. how nice is it though, to have someone objective/unbiased listen to you and provide (optional) advice? I don't like that people assume therapy is for troubled people, that's how society and the media portrays it to be when it's not. gives cognitive therapy and all other types of therapy an undeserving false reputation. just thought I'd point that out but you don't need to go with it. I just suggested it because:
you clearly do not know what your terror dreams are about
you block it out/suppress because whether you wish to believe this or not, it is an issue, you cannot cope with the realization of it so your mind defends itself - blocking it out -
you wouldnt need to block it out if you could deal with it but you cant becauee you yourself are clueless to why you have these dreams. i call them terror dreams becAuse they effect you, dramatically hence why you block them out. normally with nightmares they come and go, but youve taken an extra step, a conscious step to block. aka defense mechanization.
that's why I suggested therapy. talk, open up, make connections and see what is really going on. it's a scary experience but well worth it. cheers IP: Logged |

I agree with that being a possibilty. However I myself, my whole life actually, without being distessed or emotional at all, have had similar experiences. It's funny how you mention seeing orange and blue flashes of light. I see blue all the time, in the corner of my eye and some times even right in front of me. Been seeing it quite a bit the last month since my boyfriend's grandmother passed away (this woman literally became a best friend and a great teacher to me). I get wiffs of her perfume as I walk up the stairs closer to her room. I've had lucid dreams about her where I literally wake up and get ready to go up and talk to her. One night we were talking about her and I said how badly I wished I could have said good bye and give her a big hug. That same night I had a dream that I met her in our utility/laundry room and she gave me.the biggest hug, biggest smile and said "good bye" I woke up in tears. I don't care what any body has to say about it, I know I really did see her. Never had such a vivd, real feeling dream. Never felt real.emotion in a dream like that. I could go on for a while but it's late and I should be getting some sleep. I'm interested to hear any other stories. Astrologically speaking, though, I'm not too sure. Sometimes I'll check out transits of the Moon.
Transiting Neptune is conjunct my Moon right now which explains my intense sensitivity.to these things lately. IP: Logged |

Do I know the aspects? No, but I am sure someone around here does, since that is what you are looking for (though no one has mentioned them yet). You aren't going crazy--at all. And you are certainly not the only person who experiences this and similar things. That is all!  IP: Logged |

Neptune, sometimes Uranus or Pluto, esp. in strong aspects to Moon or Mercury (often aspecting ASC or IC, sometimes also the nodal axis- as this has also lunar symbolism; you could also check the rulers of 3rd in aspect to these and especially the ruler of 12th house).asteroids:
Pallas 2
Psyche 16
Anubis 1912
Aura 1488
maybe also Spirit 37452
Strong aspects means, tight orbs: 2 degrees at most, with only using major aspects.
And don`t worry; there will always be people who think of that as clear indicators that you need a therapy.
And others who will see it as a different kind of perception, perceiving more nuances than others might miss.
Is this a hallucination / illusion or percpetion of another dimension / spiritual realm? How you answer that question for yourself, depends on your own belief system.

All I can think of is Pisces placements, I have Pisces rising and yes have definately had encounters. Whenever I ask for one I get it, and on special occasions like my birthday my grandfather does something to get my attention, I also dreamt of him coming to say goodbye to me one night then the next morning my mother called to tell me he'd passed. Both of my daughters are Pisces, one is Pisces sun conjunct mars and scorpio ASC conjunct moon, the other has Pisces sun conjunct venus, they both have 'unexplainable' moments. I personally think it's lovely, and I consider us all very priveledged and fortunate. I won't be rushing off to a therapist to try and get it 'fixed, I don't want it to go away. None of us are frightened. I think this is a gift given to those who are 'ready' for it and who can handle it. I'm grateful for it.IP: Logged |

I truly don't think you need a doctor or therapy. I've had similar experiences and as far as I can tell, I'm healthy (lol). My grandmother died when I was about 25. Where I come from we mourn the dead for months after the funeral by dressing in black cloths. I was living away but flew to see her at the hospital and then at the funeral. Upon my return back to my place, I decided to wear black as a sign of mourning her and out of respect for her. I remember that my mom had told me not to bother with black clothes because "you're too young for that". I just felt it was the right thing to do and did it. One early morning, about a week after the funeral, I had a lucid dream with my grandmother inviting me to her place, giving me her belongings as gifts, and dancing around so happy that she made me laugh and smile broadly. The feeling of happiness from that dream was amazing. I woke up to never wear black again; her soul was happy where she was.I've had many similar lucid dreams and it's always with people who have died. I also see things in my waking hrs but that's harder to explain so I won't even try. I don't do drugs (other than caffeine lol), don't drink, hell I don't even like to smoke. So I know it's not my "Neptune". My NN is in Pisces and I just have to pay attention to such incidents to relieve and balance off my super-analytical, super-rational, hands-on, detail-oriented Virgo SN of mine. Please don't get discouraged or ashamed by remarks of people who don't know what you're talking about. I wish we would all understand such incidents but apparently most people do not neither do they want to. This doesn't make you wrong or nuts or weird or whatever. Just find and live your own truth.

that is so beautiful. made me teary. i don't have any remarkable experiences, and that's fine by me.  i tell them i'm not interested because they spook me. but when i was a child and whenever i had a high fever and in bed, shadow people surrounded me and they really terrified me. they were just faceless shadows and didn't do anything. i would like to think they were just concerned that a small child was ill.

Here are things that were happening in my chart for some of my experiences,Telepathy w.another, verified. Received images, what he was picturing, 'heard' his voice, and communicated/received thoughts and emotions:
--t.Neptune 6 Aquarius/p.Venus 6 Aquarius/n.Mercury 5 Aquarius (p.Moon was at 5 Libra)
--t.Uranus 20 Aquarius/sa.Mercury 24 Aquarius
--sa.Uranus 23 Sagittarius/n.Neptune 26 Sagittarius
--t.Node 28 Cancer/n.Moon 27 Capricorn
(also had chakra activation, saw the lit up cords of our heart chakras connecting, and saw bright blue light, had kundalini rising as a result of this experience meeting this person -- his chart had natal and progressed personals at early Aquarius as well, so our charts both natal and progressed were activated by that transit, I believe it impelled us to meet at that time.) Driving home alone at night, only one other car on the road, an older woman's voice (she sounded about mid 50's) from the back seat of my car simply stated 'Stop,' I stopped all thoughts and tuned into the energy of her, she repeated 'Stop the car' so I stopped it at a green light in the intersection and the one car that was coming in the opposite direction, with no turning light on, made a sudden turn in front of me onto the freeway just as I was slowing down. I'd been in car accidents before but no one ever hit the driver's side. Never heard this voice before or since, she stated her case calmly, trusting that I would follow through. I knew she had helped me for a reason, and she made me feel so secure that I knew there was something new waiting for me. I intuited from her (staying with her energy) that I was still meant to be here and did not need to worry about my personal safety for the next, at least, 3 yrs:
--sa.Mercury 28 Aquarius/n.Sun 1 Pisces/p.Mercury 1 Pisces/t.Uranus 5 Pisces
--t.Neptune 15 Aquarius/sa.Venus 17 Aquarius/sa.Moon 19 Aquarius (p.Dsc 21 Aquarius)
--t.Pluto 22 Sagittarius/sa.Uranus 26 Sagittarius/n.Neptune 26 Sagittarius
--sa.Jupiter 2 Sagittarius/n.Uranus 4 Sagittarius Saw a man's face (not the body), a ghost, an astral projection (I am not sure) but it was a malevolent energy that suddenly appeared to me. He stared at me right in the eyes for maybe 10 minutes, I can still see his face, it was as if he were in the room. He wanted to let me know (his eyes communicated this) that I was powerless against him and that if he wanted to kill me he could. It felt so real that I expected to see someone standing outside of my front door (after that I needed to go talk to someone). He left me with the feeling that that was the face of the man who was going to kill me (when that day comes) and that it was only a matter of time. I saw his hair, his face so clearly, eye color, etc. Unmistakable. Never have I been scared of a human to this degree, it does not compare. He was pure evil. When he disappeared I felt broken down, powerless, helpless. What happens now, is that when I see someone who resembles his coloring, his features, I track him down and do all I can to figure out his personal details. Have only seen 1 person who reminded me of him, he was at the library, and the librarian and I were friends, I walked up after he had just given her his card to look up info on his account, she walked away to help someone, and I went into the library system to get his name/address/phone number. I still have it. That's how real the feeling was. If I see another one, I will be on his case just the same:
--t.Jupiter 28 Pisces/t.Uranus 28 Pisces/p.Sun 00 Aries
--t.Neptune 26 Aquarius/t.Chiron 27 Aquarius/sa.Moon 25 Aquarius (p.Dsc 26 Aquarius)
--t.Pluto 2 Capricorn/sa.Uranus 3 Capricorn Saw a bright flowing yellow/white light (spiritual energy?) on the day that I conceived, he had just left the bed and I *knew* that I was pregnant (never had this feeling so strongly, there was no doubt in my mind, test proved it later same day), when he was out of the room I was drawn to look up into the opposite end of my bedroom and saw a big, flowing, blinding, bright light, I had to squint, but it captivated me. I saw spirits dancing in that light, I felt the most loving, caring, PROTECTIVE energy that literally wrapped itself around my heart, and the message (tho I did not hear any words) was that my pregnancy was going to be healthy and that the delivery would be without complications. That feeling of protection and caring stayed strong & carried me through those 9 mos, I knew for certain that I would not die for that time, that there was someone looking out for me, and that my baby and I were going to be protected enough to see us through delivery:
--sa.Uranus 28 Sagittarius/n.Neptune 26 Sagittarius/sa.Sun 25 Pisces (natally Uranus/Neptune are in the 5th)
--sa.Jupiter 3 Sagittarius/n.Uranus 4 Sagittarius
--sa.Mercury 29 Aquarius/n.Sun 1 Pisces
--t.Jupiter 21 Libra/n.Saturn 21 Libra (Saturn rules my 6th)
--t.Chiron 28 Capricorn/n.Moon 27 Capricorn IP: Logged |

Shortly after my maternal grandmother passed away she came to visit me in a dream. She was sitting by a pond, watching me swim and she was laughing and being playful. I woke up with a feeling of peace and when I told my mother she asked me how her mother was doing. It made her happy. I had 2 dreams shortly after my father passed away and they were dreams of protection. Again I told my mother and each time she asked how my father was doing. In my culture we believe in spirits and the afterlife. Each year we visit our ancestors’ graves and speak to them. When I was in my teens I had 2 out of body experiences. The first one instilled a sense of peace, but when it happened again the next night it scared me because I didn’t know what was going on. It never happened again. I have felt presences which have woken me up from sleep, feeling the pressure of someone sitting on the edge of my bed.I have had dreams of my ex in situations, to later find out that he was actually in them. I know when he’s in pain. I’ve heard his voice in my dreams. I don’t have dreams of him when he is happy in real life, only when he’s in pain. I don’t know what the astrological aspects that would indicate this, but someone mentioned Neptune and nodal contacts to Mercury which makes sense so I had a look. I have Mercury trine Neptune (4 deg) and Mercury opposing Pluto and NN exactly.

I have never seen a ghost or 'spirit' but I sometimes get the feeling that something is watching me or in my presence, this happens every now and then and has been happening more lately..
Something that happens all the time with me is when Im either in a really relaxed state or laying in bed before I fall asleep I hear all different people talking, sometimes there is so much noise i cant make out what anyone is saying lol and other times theres less chatter and i can make out things clearly.. sometimes i get fluent sentences, but i can only ever can recall the last bit.. and unless i write it down, i forget it all..IP: Logged |

The only spiritual encounters I had was when I was 3/4 years old. Every morning I'd go out of my bedroom and stand at the stairs and I'd see a man in an army suit standing in the living room. His presence didn't scare me, he actually made me feel safe. But who knows he might be evil and I was too stupid or too young too realise. My mother freaked out when I told her about him and forced me to stop seeing him, he really did disappear few years later. IP: Logged |

Lonake,
wow! Sounds like very intense experiences, and in the case of the man, very scary. IP: Logged |

When tSaturn was on my 12th House NN, demonic entities (for lack of a more accurate term)were following me and temporarily occupying the bodies of people in my vicinity and making them say specific things alluding to my personal life. I think I was an easy target to harvest low frequency emotions from, so they were inducing freakouts in me and feeding off of those energies. Then I went overseas, pulled myself together, and it apparently stopped. I researched the experience online (Google: "gangstalking") and now I'm hoping the spirits or whatever come back so I can haz an opportunity for a cool YouTube video.
