3 am and scary freaking dreams...

[EmpressArwen]

Background...I've had more than my fair share of scary experiences. It's like I'm a magnet for the good AND evils of this world...it all just comes flooding in. I have no idea why. It's been this way my entire life...though in the last couple of years activity has increased (both positive and negative). I've worked very hard on shielding, protecting myself and my family...and for the most part it has worked BUT there is one time of night that weirdness persist...3 am. I googled it and let me tell you, I wish I hadn't. Freaky stuff.

Here is what has been happening...sometime, just before 3 am, I will be woken up by something. Often it's the ringing of bells. This feels positive,not scary. I've also heard "It's time to wake her" or my name being said by a beatiful female voice. I will be fully awake. Within minutes, I will hear footsteps in the hall, things bumping around, dark/scary, but nondesript male grumbling. This will last about an hour...I usully have to get up and turn the light on because I'm freaked out.

Last night, I was very tired and crashed out. I didn't wake up before 3. Instead I had a dream. In the dream, I woke up, alone in my youngest sons bedroom. I made it to the door, opened it and turned on the light, I was halfway into the hallway, then something entered me, like a possession. I was fighting it...a war within. It was the most evil feeling you could imagine. I started calling on St Michael and Jesus...and the battle was on. I was doubled over...screaming, twisting...soon I felt something leave me. Then my youngest son and husband came running down the hallway...my husand's face was contorted in pain. I realized he was possessed too. I screamed for St. Michael and Jesus again. Soon my husband was back to normal and I ran to my oldest sons room...he said, "I was just possessed!!" and I'm like "oh my god! We were all possessed at the same time." I looked at my youngest son and said, "are you ok?" he said he was fine that nothing had happened to him. I heard a woman say, "he's still too young to choose." I thought, "choose what?" Then woke up...it was 3:19.

My interpretation of this dream, if it was not demonic, would be that I'm worried aobout my families spiritual path, their spiritual well-being...I think all of us aren't on the right path but my youngest is still too young to really choose a good or bad path? I think this dream was either from my fears about the bump in the night activity, a warning from my guides, or influenced by something really evil. I just don't know. Any thoughts on all of this?

Thank you.

Wow Empress! Sounds like you have much going on inside of you...Now I don't know the "proper" way to interpret dreams, I've always just done it in a way that makes sense to me...so I will give it a shot and hopefully it can shed some light on your situation.

Now from reading your post, and also from other conversations you and I have had, I know that you've been working on opening yourself up to channel (at least that is the impression i have gotten please forgive me if I'm wrong)...and we all know that when we do that, we get the good along with the bad which is why, it is stressed (even by yourself) that protection is extremely important. I'm wondering if perhaps you're having doubts about what you're doing. Maybe you subconsciously have a fear that what you do may hurt your family in some way?
That's the first thought that came to my mind when reading this, as I'm typing this to you however, another feeling has come over me...do your husband and children have the same abilities as you? Maybe not to your level, but maybe the "possession" in your dream can be interpreted to channeling, or mediumship, and the fact that all of you were "possessed" maybe it has to do with the fact that you all share the same gift, and maybe it's up to you to help them develop it so that it dosn't become such a scarey ordeal. The fact that the woman said "he's still too young" could mean that maybe wait until your son is a bit older before you help him with it.

I'm sorry if this isn't making any sense...to be honest...I feel as though I automatically wrote this...so I hope it has helped you in some way.

love and protection

Very true...I'm working on opening up, to understand the visions/messages I get better. Yes, I'm a super promoter of protection lol I do have doubts, religious reasons for fears of this path. I do worry very, very much that I could somehow harm my family by bringing in unwanted "visitors".

That's the first thought that came to my mind when reading this, as I'm typing this to you however, another feeling has come over me...do your husband and children have the same abilities as you?

Both of my children have displayed gifts at one time or another...STRONGLY with my youngest who saw spirits until his 9th bday, when it stopped. This hasn't always been a good thing as not all visitors were good. We made a deal when he was 7 that if anyone came to see him, that he had to tell them to talk to me first. lol It worked and the scary stuff stopped...then at 9 he said a man told him that he needed to be a little boy for awhile and that he wouldn't be getting anymore visitors until he was older...and it stopped completely. Weird. My oldest is very empathic and I've always worried about the energies in the house affecting him. As for my husband, I don't know if he has any gifts...though he does win football picks more than most people. lol He is a different story. He's very against divination...is afraid that I'm messing with things I should be. He worries a lot about me...a lot!

I'm sorry if this isn't making any sense...to be honest...I feel as though I automatically wrote this...so I hope it has helped you in some way.

This made perfect sense. You have given me an interesting perspective...I wonder, after reading this, if somehow my fears are bringing the lower energy spirits around and the bells/woman saying my name is just a warning that they are near? I've also heard a woman say "I love you."...maybe they are trying to ease my mind so that my vibration level raises and no more lower energy beings come around? Hmmm...thanks again. You were right on the mark.

Another thought...Amethyst Eyes just read on this so in conjunction with all the info...I wonder if I'm being woken up when this negative energy is near because I'm supposed to do something about it, not let my extreme fear of bodily/emotional/spiritual harm for myself and my family "possess" me to the point of paralysis...like help them crossover (that sounds so Ghost Whisperer but that it the only term I could think of lol) or something. If that is the case....I have no idea how to do that...and the thought of going into the hallway when this is happening is beyond scary to me. I once had to go to the bathroom for the full hour but held it because there was NO friggin way I was going out there. lol

Thanks for sharing your experiences. I always like reading about other people's experiences with the spiritual realms... personally, I wouldn't want to open myself up because i'm a bit scared (ok a lot scared lol) of what i'd encounter... but I guess that through my lack of own knowledge and awareness too. And it's a personal journey and all that stuff.... So kudos to you for wanting to develop your gifts.

When I was reading your post, other than thinking oh gawd, what a horrible dream to have experienced... I was thinking more about the 'protection' side of things, as you're a strong advocate for protecting yourself + family.

Have you thought about asking your guides to help you do a house clearing? Like clear the 'negative' energy form your house and only ask for 'positive' energies to enter your personal space. And perhaps "setting" up hour personal space (ie your entire house)? Or asking someone you trust to help you do this? I'm not thinking of an exorcism here .. more like a respected energetic healer to help clear your space.

I know when I physically do a house clean, my space always feels a lot better lol. And also when I get energetic healings for myself, i always feel so light, energised and 'balanced'
I assume this would be the same on energetic terms for your house / space?

Also in terms of being affected by 'negative' energies (spirits whatever you'd like to refer to them as) I work in a very OLD building that has a lot of negative energies floating around. The building used to be an unmarried women + children's home back in the early 1900's, then a retirement village, then a drug and alcohol facility and currently it's a women's refuge.... so a lot of the people who are living at the moment there have experienced a lot of trauma, depression, mental health issues and generally... it can be a bit of a 'heavy' place at times....
When I have to sleep over at night, sometimes I find it hard to sleep at night... and I was speaking to the energetic healer that i see about this.... She suggested that I wear an "energetic cloak" for protection so I don't pick up on the negative energies... apparently the energetic healer spoke to my guides about my concerns and they came up with the 'cloak' idea.... Does this sound like far fetched idea... AH YES! However, I haven't been 'bothered' since....

So.... the clearing of negative energies may be something you might want to consider or at least speak to your family about this idea, and see where they all stand... I assume you'd need everyone on board or at least comfortable with the idea, as essentially you'd be going into your sons' rooms and clearing out 'negative' / 'unwanted' energies...

Hope that's some food for thought at least...
Cheers,
SB

Actually, no...lol I didn't think of that but it's a great idea. I do ask my protector to clear my house and property but I've never walked around doing a house clearing like I've read about (I think the ones I have read about involve burning sage??). I don't know anyone who could help me with this but will definitely look into it.

This sounds like just what I need!

LOL...nothing seems far fetched to me these days. I love this idea. I am going to ask my guides for something to help and I'm going to try the cloak too!

So.... the clearing of negative energies may be something you might want to consider or at least speak to your family about this idea, and see where they all stand...

The kids are so used to me doing "weird" things that they probably wouldn't even notice. haha! My husband would surely lecture me, telling me that I shouldn't open to these things in the first place but as always, he would end up hugging me, telling me that I'm his favorite weirdo and go about his day. lol

Thanks so much for your thoughts! I really appreciate it!

I just had one similar where the devil flew into me and a little boy was possesed so I had to pray "Our father ..."

The devil was actually me, well part of me that the society I revolved around rejected. So I became something/someone else who doesnt exist. The devil attacking me was a wake up call to return to being me and not someomes idea of me.

So that said, where are you in terms of who you are in this world vs who you should be?

Do you know when the bewitching hour is?

Most people think it's at midnight, but it's not. It's at 3am. The hour when the world is quiet and voices from the other side are most easily heard.

I used to wake up between 3-30am. Now more often than not I stay up until then.
It's a great time for magic or meditation if you're so inclined.

And sweetie smudging with sage inside is never a good idea. Some would argue, but wait till you try to get that stink out of the house. Try lavender plants inside or out near windows or doors, or lavender potpourri in the affected areas.

If you're religious go to your Catholic Church and get a vile of holy water to splash around. It's free and they don't mind at all.

I haven't read your entire post, but I will later.

Good luck sweetie!

Oooh! Interesting question...deep. Well, my initial thought is that I have a hard time expressing who I am spiritually, except with a very few people. I feel judged often from both sides of the fence here. I am Christian...and I'm also into all this stuff (gestures hands around AT lol). I've been judged by non-Christian as often as Christians. I feel this duality...like in certain places and with certain people, I have to be a certain way...nothing ever feels integrated. I want wholeness more than anything. I want to feel like I can be myself...and honestly I don't expect everyone to agree with how I am and what I believe, just want to come to a place where other's judgements don't shake me so much, don't make me alter myself...honestly, you would think I'd be there by now (I'm hardly a spring chicken lol) but I'm not.

So who I am is a chameleon...always blending in to a point...who I am supposed to be is authentic, everywhere. I know my guides want this for me. I know God wants this for me. I know I want this...so why can't I seem to do it? Hmmm...more to ponder.

Thank you very much. You have given me alot to think about.

What I googled called the 3 am hour the "Devil's Hour". The polar opposite of the 3 pm hour said to be the time of Jesus' death...freaked me out! lol

I actually do have some holy water! I use it to bless the kiddos (and the dog lol) before bed occasionally. What you wrote made me think that maybe I should meditate when the guides (or angels or whoever is tinkling the bells) wake me up...maybe they would tell me something about what is going on. I'm so freaked out, staring wide eyed at the door,that it never occurred to me to ask, "hey, what's this about?" I'm such a chicken!

And..lol..I never thought about the sage smelling bad! I do like lavender...I will get some. Thanks again...as always.
