Is There A Such Thing As Risidual Environmental Empathy?

[at] EdenMarie - I remember seeing a tv show a few years ago where they let potential buyers stay the night in homes they were considering. I wondered if that was a real thing or if just a staged situation for television. I'll definitely have to check out and see if a realtor would be willing to work with me.

Problem is, I don't feel comfortable letting people outside of my family know about my 'problem'. So, I'm going to have to come up with a real good (fake) reason to ask to stay overnight in a house. LOL. If that doesn't work, I will try to spend some time alone in the house before making a commitment. (Even if it is a few hours)

Thanks for the advice:)

[at] RevSilverson - Your childhood story is amazing to me. I have had similar things happen all my life and it's a relief to know someone else has been there.

And antiques? Nope that's a big no-no. LOL. I realized that years ago after buying some costume jewelry. Horrible experience: (

I try my best to drown out the negative energy that I feel, but spiritual stuff is, for the most part, a mystery to me. I'm going to have to do a lot of research on the subject in the next year before the 'big move'.

In my early 20's I had a friend that was really big into tarot and divining, but had to stop participating in that real quick. Every time I was around her while she was practicing I would become anxious to the point of fight or flight. After that I did my best to stay away from occult shops, mediums, and things of that nature. I suppose that just proves how important developing a shield for myself is!

Thanks so much! If you have any online resources that you feel could help me I am open to suggestions.

i have worked with residual energy all of my life. My first encounter with it was at a birthday party where we played treasure hunt. When we got down to the basement and into a small room at the back of the cellar I became overcome with sadness and terror and told the other kids we needed to get out of there immediately before something bad happened to us. The birthday girl's parents called me into their living room and aksed me why I would say such a thing that upset the other children. I told them it was what I felt- that something bad had happened there. The parents then told me that the house used to be part of the underground railroad for slaves during the civil war and that there had possibly been some suffering had occured. Then they told me to go home as I had ruined the party!

I have been a shaman for over 40 years now. I have a treasure trove of experiences. I can tell you this- it's all about energy. Everything that is and happens and life after we shed our physical form. The "spirit" has several parts. The strongest (most physical) part is the body of negative emotions we have experienced: terror, rage, despair etc. The energy of these emotions bleeds into the surroundings and remains for a long time. I caution everyone who brings antiques into their homes or wants to live in an old house to perform energy cleansings (banishings) of the items or property. The energy must be neutralized or it will remain there and even attract other negative energy to that place or thing. That's step one.

Step 2 would be to close down your heart chakra- not all the way but part of the way to reduce the amount of empathy you might feel for whatever happened or whomever used to live there.

Step 3 is to do research on the previous property owners or buy a new property but even a new place might be built on old indian burial grounds or the tradegy took place down the street and has spread into other homes. Recently one paranormal research show studied a community that in the 1940's housed many tuberculosis victims. The whole neighborhood had been blighted by negative energy: pain and suffering and fear of death. Another example is of a woman who was hit and dragged by a train in front of several houses along the tracks. Each of those homes reported visitations from her spirit at some time.

Always protect yourself daily with some sort of psychic shield. I envision a glowing, golden pyramid starting at my head and moving down to cover my feet. It helps a lot at keeping negative energy away and keeping it from attaching itself to you. There are many psychic shield formulas. Find one online that you are drawn to and use it every day.

Love and light... Always

CaroleDee,

What about an 'overnighter' in a place? Some sellers are willing to allow that (if the home is already vacant) if you explain that doing so will help give you a sense of how comfortable you would be living in the home and that neighborhood long term. Kind of like test driving a car. Haha I actually have a friend who did that. She grew up out in the country in a small town and was considering moving to the city, but wanted to see if she could 'sleep through the noise' so to speak before committing to it.
If they allow it, while you're there overnight clear your mind, focus and try to see if you pick up any odd/weird vibes or feelings. I know it's not the same as a few weeks or month in a location. But it may help to some degree.

If they don't allow an overnight, see if maybe you can spend at least an hour or so there WITHOUT the seller or real estate agent there and then try it. It's important they are not present so that you can feel comfortable enough to relax and clear your mind to focus. Just explain that it's really important you feel truly comfortable in the home before you commit to buying it.

Good luck to you!

Thanks for the advice.

My main problem is when a place isn't overwhelmingly bad, they don't tend to effect me until I've been in the residence for at least a month or so. I don't know if a home owner would let me live in their house for a month before letting me buy it. LOL.

Now, some places I will automatically know that there is no WAY I could live there or stay for more than a short period of time. (The Tower of London for example was HELL on me. What should have been a nice family outing turned into me basically freaking and waiting outside for my family to complete their tour)
Unfortunately, residential houses don't cause the feelings as fast or as hard as places like that, so by the time I realize things are bad I'm stuck: (

I know the obvious answer would be to buy a newly built home, but that just isn't in our price range.

This is definitely plausible. Any well known psychic that has their own show will be able to tell you that they are affected by the area they are in. This is how they "read" the environment.

Now that you know that you're affected by this, the next time you plan a change in residence, spend some time there first, if even under the pretext of letting the person know that you're still just thinking about it. That way you're more proactive about this situation, versus reactionary. If you're this sensitive, you should be very careful about where you live and dig deep before making the change.

Thanks for sharing.
