What am I?

For conversations and questions about hauntings and spirit visitations. This is not the place to talk about demons. In fact, this whole board isn't the place for it. A Christian site is a better place for that.

Alright, since this is apparently important now, I will clarify:

I'll admit, I was a bit confused back then about demons, angels, spirits, etc. I realized a LONG time ago that this was a stupid question, alright?

However, I DID have power over the wind as a child, I DID used to float down the stairs of my old house, I CAN have faint flashes of the future, and that instance with the bunk bed as a kid DID happen!! I will stand by those claims until the end of time!

I really hate being called a liar. Yes, I was an idiot to ask if I had a demon soul, but every single odd story I posted then was and is true. Let's just remember that this was only a year ago! I was confused, but I was not lying to anyone and I'm not lying now.

I have seen flashes of the futur once or twice but only like just the feeling of being there, i donno whats going on or what will happen. But what happens to me most the time is i will be doing something for the first time and like all of a sidden i remeber doing it and remeber what it looked like when i was finished, and once in the..flashback? i had the feeling i had done it befor in my memory or something. Very weird feeling.

That's just like mine! I'll just be doing some random thing, then just see a flash....then some days (or weeks) later I'll be in the middle of something and suddenly it'll happen!

Of course it's weirdest when someone says something I saw, because then I know I'm not just making it happen, it's happening!

I definately believe that demons take human forms quite commonly but do I believe those experiences? No. If they happened when you were young they were either dreams, hallucinations, or just false memories.

Nice to see your still here cat after what looked like a rough welcome. I can understand people wanting to discourage wild fantasy or weird stories but from my reading they hit you a bit hard. Would people have lept so hard if you has said Hi i am Fox dances with eagles Cherokee shaman and i can control storms?


It may be right that people cant control lighting as in "ohh ... i want that billy hit by lightning ~chuckle~"
The chaos effect though is based on the thought that one little push at the right time turns what would be a light breeze in nebraska into a tornado in texas.

We belive in a world of power, of the spirits that walk among us with powers we do not really understand.
If you would trust them as a child, love them as your family and repect them as your elders perhaps to be a storm caller is possible for you.
After all the rain dancers didnt claim to have the power to call rain them selves , they asked the spirits of the tribe to bring it.

What you're forgetting is quite a few of the people that come on here are young, teenagers, going through a "phase" that kind of thing. We've had them on here before saying they can do this and that etc, etc, etc. to later admit they were lying (which is a very mature thing to do I must add). The poster of this is only 15, well according to their MySpace page, take that into account also.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm no sceptic and I believe in more than most, but controlling the weather :? Come on, please! The weather would not be controlled by a human, the weather is nature, it just is. Think of what the weather controls...
The other stuff she's mentioned, as has already said, could happen when she's OOB and in Astral form but I doubt a human could do this. Maybe there are a tiny (and I mean tiny) % of our population that can do this kind of thing but I'd like to see it myself, and would they advertise it if they had these "skills?"

What the human being can do is one thing, what the Spirit can do is another, but remember, we as Spirits are still in our human shell :wink:

No the dont and i appologise if my words were out of line Enlightenment.
I do undestand the need to urge caution in people who may be confusing dreams and imagination with reality.

Hey you have nothing to appologise to me for, none of your words were out of line. I was just trying to basically say, don't believe everything you read :) Some people even have visions which can be pretty strong also.

Well, frankly I've seen weather spells that work. A woman once kept a storm from hitting our housing development by sticking a new long sharp knife into the dirt with the blade pointed towards the storm. No one knew why the storm dodged sideways, especially since there was really no where else for it to go, since it was traveling down a long narrow passage between two mountain ranges. (I remember this from the weather report)

We lived at the mouth of that narrow passage and were generally the first people to get hit by any storm that came through. I also saw the spell she did (by accident) and still have the knife she used. Let's just say that it's not just a kitchen knife anymore.

The thing is, weather magic is not always a safe practice. After all, you are messing with the balance of the weather, and that can have very ill effects. I don't know what harm calling winds would have. But doing things like keeping winter from coming or preventing storms and so fourth are rather dangerous. Since the storms will come back twice as strong if you try to keep them away permanently.

About winds: I know of a hill where you could go up to the top of and call winds from. You ask, they blow. I've shown this to a number of people and it works every time. It's a very special place... I can't do it anywhere else. The funny thing is that anyone can do it up there and get instant results.

It was a Native American burial ground once upon a time. The very sad thing is that there are no descendants of the two tribes who were buried there. Fortunately, the surrounding property is owned by my grandmother who is very respectful. The hill technically belongs to her, but she says that it is it's own thing and no one can own it, since it is a burial ground.

Weather is so chaotic it is sometimes hard to tell *what* effects it. If magic can effect the probability curve of other events, why not weather?
In fact, effecting the weather is one of the oldest uses for spells. Like it or not, our spiritual ancestors were very practical people. Would it have persisted for so long if it didn't work?


As for flying: I don't know. I have seen children fall from heights that should have badly hurt them and come away magically unhurt.

I used to have very vivid dreams when I was young about being able to fly. But even then I knew they were dreams, and often I would wake up shaking because I felt like I was "falling" into bed just before I woke up. And that part felt like *real* G-forces.
I also talked to ghosts, which never really went away.

The amusing thing was that I grew up in a very Catholic/Hispanic area where people thought I was a changeling. People tended to refer to me as "unnatural". To make fun of that, my mom made me a witch costume for Halloween. :)

I tend to agree that there was some faire folk magic going on... for both catspirit/kayaco and myself.

Ah, the Chaotes philosophy, gotta love it.




Anyway, I'm surprised that nobody brought up the topic of otherkin, or specifically, demonkin. This are people with nonhuman souls, such as dragons, elves, faeries, animals(aka Therianthropy), and such. These things are possible and do happen. I am a therianthrope myself, and my spirit can and does effect the world around me, well, the way I view the world anyway. But many magical breeds of Otherkin such as dragons, elves, ect... tend to have very inate magical abilities that verge on extrordinary.

Also, when you have seen an ink-pen explode durring a ritual, its kinda hard not to believe that levitation of some sort is possible.

I am naturally sceptical, but I have to keep an open mind, like you say Wolf it's hard not to when things that shouldn't or couldn't happen do happen. Hence the quote, many folk are happy to accept magick works but not that 'extra' or 'super' natural events do also - me I 'm baffled most of the time ,I 've seen and done things that defy explanation too - I 'm not sure about otherkin ,myself, I do intend to see what I can find out, have you any resources that may help,links or books,recommendations etc?
