Gina1960: Warding: I agree--I'm not emotionally strong enough right now to actually do this correctly. I'm continuing to put up psychic defenses, and tomorrow will do a psychic housecleaning. I use the techniques recommended by Michelle Belanger. Now I'm thinking this may have been the spirit of someone who just died and was merely passing through. I can clearly recall the features of the man I saw, and wonder if it was someone I had once known. I discovered long ago that I attract the spirits of those who have just died. One night I half-awoke to the feeling of someone sitting on my leg and I kept moving and pushing the person away from me during the night. Next morning I woke with the name "Miriam" in my mind. When I read the obituaries, there was a Miriam listed. These night-time visitations happened often enough that I had to make a choice: Be of some sort of comfort to a recently-passed spirit and risk them becoming attached to me, or opt for a good night's sleep and give my all at work?
