INTRODUCTION

Dear Ones,

I have added a new category Psychic impressions – Retrocognition – Ghostly hauntingshttps://wp.me/P2Rkym-FsB ..


PSYCHIC IMPRESSIONS

“Psychic Impressions” is rather a vague, catch-all phrase. INsofar as possible, I have assigned portions of this category to this or that section of my Contents. What is left … what seems not to fit anywhere else … will be in the new category Psychic impressions – Retrocognition – Ghostly hauntings ..

Here is Google AI on Psychic Impressions: “Psychic impressions are intuitive feelings, flashes of images, sounds, or knowledge about people, objects, or events, received outside normal senses, often feeling like a strong gut instinct, hunch, or sudden knowing, common in practices like psychometry (reading objects by touch) or as precognitive pings (knowing a call is coming). They’re seen in metaphysics as energy transfer, while psychology might view them as subconscious pattern recognition or intuitive processing, often involving clairsentience (feeling), clairvoyance (seeing), clairaudience (hearing), or claircognizance (knowing).”

You will see in what Google AI expresses to be the field of “Psychic Impressions” an overlap with two large categories in my Contents. These two large categories are “Ascension” and “Psychic Abilities and Paranormal Events.”

Under “Ascension,” there are two subcategoreis into which Psychic Impressions may fall. These are “Ascension gifts” and “Ascension skills.”

Under “Psychic Abilities and Paranormal Events,” there are another two subcategories into which Psychic Impressions may fall. There are “Clair senses – extrasensory perception – second sight” and “Psychic Powers.”

Of the four subcategories, “Psychic Powers” is the most likely to provide a livelihood, and consequently, the more subject to Dark Interference. That is because someone may offer to pay you to use your psychic gifts to harm another person; or you may be tempted to do so on your own if you are in financial need.

Far the safer course is to develop our psychic gifts in a nonprofit or not-for-profit context. Donations, either for services rendered or in a ‘Blue Sky’ context, are a Light-filled way to receive remuneration for psychic gifts. Or, courses can be offered for sale, or books can be offered for sale.


RETROCOGNITION

Retrocognition is a new word for me.

Google AI says: “Retrocognition is the psychic or paranormal ability to perceive or ‘know’ past events that couldn’t be learned through normal senses, essentially experiencing history as if it’s happening now, also known as postcognition. Coined by Frederic Myers, it’s a form of extrasensory perception (ESP) where someone sees visions or receives information about the past, often through touch (psychometry) or dreams, differentiating it from clairvoyance (seeing contemporary events) and precognition (seeing the future).”

See also my blog category. Timeline loops – rollbacks – previews … especially with regard to rollbacks.

“Key aspects

  • Definition: Direct, extrasensory knowledge or perception of past events.
  • Synonym:Postcognition (from Latin post ‘after’ and cognitio ‘knowing’). Mechanism: Often involves visions, dreams, or impressions about specific past moments or events.
  • Related abilities: Can be linked to psychometry (reading object history) or past-life regression.
  • Contrast: It’s the opposite of precognition (seeing the future).
  • Usage: A term used in parapsychology and fiction to describe a supernatural insight into history.” –Google AI

GHOSTLY HAUNTINGS

In the below description, it is ‘Residual Hauntings’ and ‘Emotional Residue’ that appear to be most closely aligned with Retrocognition.

For information to do with the below mention of ‘Manfestation and Sounds – Auditory’ … and of ‘Poltergeists’ … see my blog category Psychokinesis – telekinesis – poltergeist ..

For information to do with the below mention of ghosts as ‘trapped spirits’, see my blog category Ghosts – kama rupa ..

Google AI says: “Ghostly hauntings are paranormal events where spirits or supernatural entities are believed to manifest in a location, person, or object, causing unexplained phenomena like apparitions, strange noises (footsteps, voices, music), moving objects, sudden cold spots, or flickering lights, often tied to strong emotions or past events at that place. These manifestations vary from interactive ‘intelligent hauntings’ (spirits aware of the living) to non-interactive ‘residual hauntings’ (energy imprints replaying past scenes).

Common Types of Hauntings

  • Residual Hauntings: Like a tape recording, these are repetitive, non-interactive imprints of past events or emotions, with spirits appearing to replay actions without awareness of the living.
  • Intelligent Hauntings: Conscious spirits interacting with their surroundings, moving objects, making sounds, or communicating with people.
  • Poltergeist Activity: Involves physical disturbances like knocking, slamming doors, or moving objects, sometimes linked to a living person’s unconscious energy. 

Manifestations & Signs

  • Visual: Apparitions (people, animals, mists), strange lights, shadowy figures, or objects appearing/disappearing.
  • Auditory: Disembodied voices, screams, laughter, footsteps, or spontaneous sounds from instruments or bells.
  • Physical: Sudden cold spots, unexplained breezes, odors, or objects being moved.

Explanations & Beliefs

  • Emotional Residue: Spirits are often tied to places of intense emotion, trauma, or death (e.g., remorse, fear).
  • Spiritual Attachment: Ghosts may be trapped spirits, seeking vengeance, or unable to move on.
  • Scientific Theories: Some suggest high electromagnetic fields (EMFs) or psychological factors can induce ghostly experiences.” –Google AI

A Sensitive Must Somehow Make Her Way in the World . by Alice B. Clagett

In memory of Madame Blavatsky and a host of other Sensitives who must survive in a world full of men and women with knives in their eyes.

A Sensitive Must Somehow Make Her Way in the World

Dear Ones,

A Sensitive must somehow make her way in the world … but how?

If she sells an apparition, and that willful being fails to manifest, then what?

For the sake of her hungry children, the impoverished Sensitive is ineluctably drawn to charlatanry. I can imagine this may be so.

Yet when the apparition truly manifests, the spoken truth may prove quite inconvenient. None can see but the Sensitive. What is she to do?

MORE INFORMATION

I asked Google AI: What does the School of Theosophy say about seances?

I agree completely with Google AI’s response.

Google AI said: “The School of Theosophy, and Theosophy in general, takes a critical and cautious stance on séances, cautioning that the entities contacted are generally not the actual deceased individuals but rather their “astral shells” or lower, potentially deceptive, elementals. The practice of holding séances is generally discouraged as a result of these perceived dangers and limitations. 

Key Theosophical perspectives on séances include:

  • Contact with Astral Shells: Theosophical teaching explains that after death, a person sheds their physical and then “astral” body (the linga sharira and kama rupa). What remains on the astral plane are these “shells,” which retain the individual’s lower memories and personality traits but lack their higher spiritual intelligence (Manas, Buddhi, Atman). It is these empty shells, or sometimes lower, mischievous elemental spirits, that are typically encountered in séances.
  • Dangers of the Practice: Theosophists, including Helena Blavatsky, argued that engaging with these lower entities can be dangerous, potentially attracting negative influences or resulting in “horse-play” and disturbances, as described in detailed accounts by early Theosophists who investigated the phenomena. It is considered a form of black magic to “galvanize” the ethereal corpse into an artificial life for a short period after death.
  • Misinterpretation of Phenomena: While acknowledging that genuine physical phenomena (raps, moving objects, automatic writing) can occur during séances due to real, albeit misunderstood, forces, Theosophy teaches that these manifestations do not provide a true understanding of life after death.
  • Focus on Inner Work: Instead of seeking external phenomena through mediumship, Theosophy encourages individuals to pursue a more strenuous spiritual discipline through the development of one’s own latent spiritual powers, intuition, and meditation to gain direct contact with a deeper spiritual reality. This inner work is seen as the proper path to true wisdom and spiritual growth, rather than relying on external psychicism, which is seen as a lower form of study.
  • Colored Communications: Any communication received through a medium is likely to be heavily influenced and colored by the medium’s own personality, knowledge, and level of advancement, making reliable, objective information from the true “higher self” of a deceased person nearly impossible to obtain in this manner.”

Dybbuk – Ghostly Obsessor of a Living Person. by Alice B. Clagett

. . . . .

Dear Ones,

I ran across a new word today: Dybbuk. I looked it up in English Wikipedia …

“In Jewish mythology, a dybbuk … from the Hebrew verb dabaq meaning ‘adhere’ or ‘cling’… is a malicious possessing spirit believed to be the dislocated soul of a dead person. … It supposedly leaves the host body once it has accomplished its goal, sometimes after being exorcised.”

More about that is here: Link: “Dybbuk,” in English Wikipedia … https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dybbuk..

The dybbuk was a concept adhered to in Eastern Europe in the 16th and 17th century. Some classified obsession by a dybbuk as a hysterical condition and advised consultation with a rabbi or with a psychologist.

It looks like only men could become dybbuks after passing on, as women were thought not to reincarnate. In earlier days it was not the ghost of a man but a demon that was said to cause this kind of obsession or possession.

Here is more from the above-cited English Wikipedia link …

“In traditional Jewish communities, the concept of the dybbuk served as a socially acceptable way of expressing unacceptable urges, including sexual ones …

“Within Jewish mysticism and folklore, particularly in Kabbalistic traditions, protective practices were also used to ward off these malevolent spirits. One such practice involves affixing a mezuzah—a piece of parchment inscribed with specific Torah verses—to the doorposts of a home.

“While the mezuzah primarily serves as a reminder of faith and adherence to God’s commandments, it is also viewed as a protective amulet against harmful spirits, including dybbuks.

“The Zohar, a foundational Kabbalistic text, suggests that a properly affixed mezuzah can prevent such entities from entering a home … Additionally, Jewish folklore includes accounts where neglected or improperly maintained mezuzot were believed to make homes susceptible to dybbuk possession …

These perspectives emphasize the mezuzah’s dual role in Jewish life: as both a symbol of faith and a spiritual safeguard.”

. . . . .

I see an analogy between the Jewish placement of a sacred parchment on the doorpost to my placement of a cross beside the doorways of my home and my placement Christian holy water on the wall of the entryway of my home.

In love, light and joy
