A Visitation of Spirits

A Visitation of Spirits began with a dream of an old friend who had died of AIDS.

In the dream I was at home when I heard the doorbell ring.  When I opened the door,  I was shocked to see my friend whom I had not thought of in more than ten years standing there.  “What are you doing here," I called out happy and confused. You see, even in the dream my mind told me he had been dead for many years and yet there he stood just as real and full of life as when he had been alive. The only exception was that his arms were made of gold and they seemed to be some twenty or thirty feet long and his hands were that of a giant.  He never did tell me why he had come or how he had found me.  You see I had moved into my house long after he had passed.  He simply walked in and in true dream fashion this was my home but not my home...

Making the Spirits Visible

One of the most common experiences people have with spirits is visitation dreams.  While many people are quick to brush off any visitation dream as the result of the grieving process and not an actual communication from a departed soul, we tend to think otherwise. Visitation dreams occur more than you may realize. There are several common traits to visitation dreams that greatly differ than your average dream of showing up to work or school without pants. We are aware of several claims where one person experienced a dream visitation then wake up and experience a secondary sign that sometimes accompanies the dream.

Appearances from loved ones that have passed on occur fairly frequently. In our sleeping state we are closer to them than when in the waking state. The reason being that our five senses and our ego are at rest allowing our sixth sense or our higher self the freedom it needs to make these communications happen.

In the sleeping state, everyone gets a chance to be close to the veil, that is the dividing line between the physical state and the spiritual one. Mediums continually practice focusing themselves so that they can attain this state in order to communicate with the deceased. This requires quite a bit of time and effort on their part. However, the sleeping person is already there nearby.

A visitation is more than a dream

There is a noticeable difference between a dream and a visitation. In the latter, the spirit  appears spontaneously and unexpectedly as the unmistakable central focus. Its image may be much brighter than in an ordinary dream. It can simply be a face to face momentary meeting with a full or partial image and no more than that. Or, it can involve an issue that has some relevance between the person and the spirit. In either case, the visitation usually leaves the dreamer with a feeling of otherworldliness about the encounter when they awake.
