I have read about spirits who like to come to people just to "amuse" themselves or they do it plainly out of curiosity .. or even mischief ..

My question is, how can you tell the difference between a spirit that has good intentions from a spirit who is only visiting you for mischief or for amusement?

Hello EternallyHurt. First of all, I would like to state that "spirit" is the duplicate body of their physical body. The physical body is animated while they are incarnate on the Earth plane. Therefore, once passing from this realm they no longer have a physical body and immediately step into their Spiritual Body and it is one that everyone possesses, unequivocally.

At the time of a person's transition (their passing), there may have been circumstances whereby one now fully in spirit is hesitant to leave the plane that they have known for quite a period of time and/or they could have experienced a traumatic occurrence that led them to become anchored to the Earth plane for a longer period of time and have not yet discovered that they are now not incarnate anymore.

To better answer your question about telling the difference between a spirit with good intentions from one who is visiting with mischief/amusement is in that it is in knowing the spiritual vibration of the spirit. Generally, if a spirit is benevolent, his or her vibration will be much higher than those who would come for the purpose of mischief or amusement. The latter have not yet grown spiritually enough to recognize the difference or do not care to due to their own free will choice. Therefore, they will come usually seeking someone to do something such as to leave their "space" or in some circumstances to help guide them to the Light.

It is in the guidance to the Light, the Source, where they will find their peace and where they should be directed to. Those who are spiritually trained to do this work can guide mischievous spirits to the light and there will be others waiting there to escort them into the Afterlife where they rightfully belong.

Once there, the lower vibrating mischievous spirit will have much time to elevate into a higher spiritual vibration which will allow them the necessary information with which to make a better informed decision before they would choose to reappear for anything less than benevolent purposes.

If you simply judge the experience as good or bad then you're missing the point - the point might be to learn to use your discernment and to work out for yourself who is what.


Thank you for your post
I completely understand what youre saying 1OO percent ... but personally, I dont want to be bothered by lower beings ...
I would rather just be left alone completely if a spirit is going to come to me out of malicious intent or anything else thats negative ...

But again, I do see what your saying .. sometimes the details arent the most imporant thing, its the bigger picture ... and its what you perceive the "bigger picture" to be ... I think that is what youre saying in so many words

My whole thing is, Im always afraid that Im being tricked .. always. Its something that I need to grow out of, I know ... but ... its hard for me. I think Im paranoid in that area. The spirit that came to me didnt have a negative vibration at all .. but after reading and seeing that spirits can really trick you in all kinds of ways makes it hard for me to truly know if Im being tricked or not ..

I do understand what youre saying though . Thank you for answering, again

Eternally, if your experience was positive I don't think there is any need to keep second-guessing yourself. It's far more common to have positive and loving experiences with spirit than it is to have negative ones (unless you are deliberately investigating or placing yourself around unhappy or mischievous spirits) because we are surrounded by loving spirits at all times in the form of our guides and loved ones on the other side. Remember, for the most part spirits are just people without physical bodies at the moment, so if you don't go about your daily life worrying about being deceived, you shouldn't worry about it during your interactions with the spirit world either. If you are concerned then ask your guides or angels to only allow loving spirits to connect with you.

Do you think the spirit who came to you was that of the person you were thinking about when they arrived? And if you are concerned, have you tried reconnecting with this spirit? By the sounds of things I am sure you would be reassured.

You can tell by how you treat it.. treat all spirits as fun playful and they will be..

Treat all spirits as "evil" and domineering and that's what you attract..

Thank you for your reply
I believe like attracts like, but to a certain extent.
I feel like an "evil" spirit or a lower being can come to a person who is "good" and full of light because the darkness always seeks out the light .. whether good or bad ..
At the same time, I do agree with you .. I feel like whatever vibrations you send out is what you will get in return ..

However ..
I did not call a spirit to me ..
All I simply did was imagine myself laying on the lap of someone I loved very much who died about a couple of years ago .. I wasnt in a bad state of mind either .. I was relaxed and felt love .. and a spirit just showed up out of the blue and talked to me about love as well as showing it to me and I gave it back in return ..

I really appreciate this part of what you said " .. I don't think there is any need to keep second-guessing yourself. " I really like that part because its true, I do always second-guess myself in everything!! I dont know why I do that ... I guess its because Im so insecure about myself and everything else I go through in life .. especially the spiritual things .
Thank you for reminding me that spirits are just people without their physical bodies, I think I forget that sometimes, though I know this is true .
I dont know why, but for some reason whenever I had interactions with the spirit, I never felt worry or fear or anything like that .. but when the spirit would leave, I would start giving way to doubt and fear and all kinds of other things .. I just dont want to be deceived ..
I hope everything I said makes sense to you lol .

As for your other set of questions .. this is the part that stumps me everytime .. actually, the spirit who visited me let me know who it was .. not only did I FEEL who it was, but the spirit told me who it was by name .. the spirit told me that it was who I was thinking about .. it didnt say it audibly the first time, but I just felt it in my soul . Ive reconnected with the spirit many MANY times .. and it would always tell me who it was everytime I asked .. and it claimed to be the same spirit everytime .. my first encounter with this spirit was very loving .. the spirit kept talking about love ..

The spirit left, I believe, early of last year .. I believe its gone now because it stopped visiting .. and I kind of got sad about it because I actually grew to love the spirit like it seemed to love me ..
But I understand that spirits as well as people, have to move on and evolve ..

This is a condatridiction.. in your beliefs.. you see, you have a foot in both pools.. because you do, you can attract both evil and good spirits..

Let me, let you in on a little secret..

There are no bad spirits!

All things are you, and you are they..

Certainly there can be "negative" energy spirits.. but if you hold a positive vibration.. how can they even get near you..?? you repell them..??

Except if you believe what you said above..

Perhaphs, it's time to re-examine your beliefs?

Okay ...
Now you just kind of confused me lol ... or maybe I confused myself lol ...?


Honestly, I dont know what kind of vibration I have ..
I think maybe another person would be good at telling me that ..
All I know is that when the spirit first visited me, I had love in my heart and I was relaxed .. there wa sno negativity inside of me at the time, so I really cant see how I could have sent off negative vibrations ...?
I dont know ... Im confused, like I said lol ..?
