Hi everyone!
Happy Saint Patrick's Day to you all! I am filled to the brim with some delicious corned beef and cabbage! Let's hope it doesn't come back to haunt me...no pun intended. Back to the grind on Monday, but I wanted to take a moment to briefly introduce myself, my background and announce my upcoming blogs.
I specialize in anything regarding the 'world of weird', i.e. metaphysics (not sure what that says about me as a person, ha!). I have had psychic and paranormal experiences since I was a child and began researching case studies and investigations when I was 11 years old. Since I was a senior in high school, I have been performing house blessings and removing negative or severe hauntings for individuals and families alike. I am known as a 'demonologist' to some, but if you were to ball together a paranormal investigator, reverend, psychic, and a spiritual healer, you would get something along the lines of how I function. My heart and soul goes in to my work and I love helping those in need.
I have studied numerous religions and cultures and use what I consider to be the most potent methods for removing a haunting and for spiritual healing. I obtained my B.A. in communications but have a background in abnormal psychology from Michigan State University (Go Green!).
Feel free to ask me a question or advise on an issue you're dealing with. Anything from cryptozoology, deja vu experiences, past lives, hauntings, UFOs, mediumship and psychics, to whatever you can think of! If you're interested in more of my background, feel free to dig around on my website: www.MichiganPRA.com and check out the biography page. I have lots of evidence and interesting things to look at on the site as well!
I will try to keep up with this blog - currently I run my own business, work at UofM, run an organization, take care of my own mini-farm, am fixing up my house to sell and am working with publishers on my upcoming book (comes out March 8, 2014). Lots of things to keep me busy but I'll be sure to answer your questions in a timely manner. Enjoy the holiday and spring is rearing its head finally! Horray!
Light & Love to you all!

My question is several: What is an apparition? Is it a physical entity? If its not, how is it possible for the non physical to interact with the physical? Is it a form of energy? Is it something from another dimension? How is it possible to see whatever it is? How is able to be photographed? And have you ever seen an actual full bodied spirit or ghost? I'm sorry I have so many questions but this stuff freaks me out. Oh, I also live very close to Soops Cemetary in Belleville and believe I may have experienced something paranormal while walking my dog near the cemetery.
Gosh - so many theories and explanations to share but I'll boil it down to the most widely believed/mainstream school of thought. An apparition is believed to be a spirit "manifesting" itself. We are all energy, so essentially a spirit or apparition is indefinitely energy. Spirits are believed to exist on a different wavelength/frequency, hence why they are rarely heard or seen. Much like we can't see infrared, we do know it exists and there are different methods of seeing this light spectrum. I believe spirits exist in a different realm...sometimes this realm of existence and our own mingle, hence the "thinning of the veil" reference which refers to the thin veil between this world and the other side. Sometime the mist or "smoke-like" apparition is called "ectoplasm" which is also another form of energy manifestation. It commonly appears in photographs but is almost never seen with the naked eye. Like your mom demonstrated, most spirits are looking for attention or help with crossing over to the other side so they like to make their presence known. Just remember they were once living people like you and me, had thoughts, feelings, life experiences, etc. and I think it makes it less scary. There are many devices and gadgets to try and see spirits, especially the all-spectrum cameras - amazing! I have seen shadow figures and apparitions but never a spirit that appeared to me as you and I look. Hope this helps! :)
The exact same thing happens to me! Some people refer to it as "street light interference" or "SLI-ers" but basically your personal energy/aura/magnetic field is a higher level of intensity and can interfere with electronics, lights, battery powered watches, etc. A few times I had been in a very heated argument and when I came in to the house I blew out the kitchen light haha! You might be interested in "working with your chi" which is your personal energy and doing exercises with it. Don't be frightened, it just means you're 'high voltage rock and roll' ;) Just Google search SLI or street light interference and you'll find many others who experience the same thing!
Thanks Sam for the info. I know of a few others that do this too, it happens in multiple locations not just home, and all kinds of lights, not just street lights. We also seem to project thoughts that others can pick up, as well as being able to say what others were thinking at the exact same time the thought occurred to the other person. Don, we must be wired differently, but these "metaphysical" things happen a little too regularly, especially with high functioning kids on the spectrum.
Sometimes our loved ones give us a sign that they are "visiting" us with certain smells and perfumes we are familiar with (sometimes their actual personal smell too). If I understand your question correctly, you are concerned that your health is declining and that they are "waiting" for you? I wouldn't assume that they are visiting you because of your illness as if they're "coming to collect you" but rather they may be visiting for support, to show their love, to see how you're doing, etc. I just wrote my second blog about reiki and alternative healing, you might be interested in reading it to see if it will help you? I wish you the very best and a speedy recovery! Laughter and a will to heal, along with alternative healing methods is sometimes very helpful! Let me know how everything is going!

Yes! I have many cases, if not all cases, in which a demonic entity is attached or attracted to very negative habits (i.e. alcoholism, substance abuse, domestic violence, sexual abuse/addictions, depression, chronic illness, etc.) If a person is not willing to change these habits it is very likely that the entity will stay attached to them. I do believe there is a difference between what we call "personal demons" and actual demonic entities...but sometimes these topics overlap each other. I always try to tell people to surround themselves with positive, loving people and environments and to stay away from lower level activities as those bad habits, etc. I perform house blessings and cast out what I refer to as "demons" but also human spirits that are severely negative as well. :) Thanks!
