Hi Penny

[quote]Now, as to Hestia and the extreme trickery that was played out. What the ? Here, is a woman bragging about having such a hígh IQ but doesn't have the common sense to at least pick up a book and inquire about invisible spírits that desire to have s*x with humans. Her story also sends off warning bells in my noodle regarding Spiritual Guides and meditations where people attempt to "communicate" with these Guides. Now, being supposedly so smart, she should have read any number of books about meditation, Angels, and Spiritual Guides/Teachers. Had she done so, at some point she would likely have cóme across a warning--I certainly have--that IF a Spiritual Guide suggests anything unbecoming or harmful, then the Spirit is NOT a Guide but a negative spírit. Anyone who knows anything about Guides (and Angels) knows that they would never cross that líne.

I agree with you there! The alarm bells should have gone off but they didn’t until it was too late. She should have known or suspected. But I feel as you mentioned that she was very lonely.

[quote]She opened the door to these spírits, I suspect, by using the dowsing rod. For years, in the back of my mind, I have had suspicions regarding other forms of Spirit Communication OTHER THAN the Ouija board. These methods include automatic writing and use of a pendulum (which I have tried).

I have used these occasionally but have not had what happened to this woman…. So I think it preyed on her vulnerability. Of course too these things get into a persons aura and once they do that they can know everything about the person and home in on their weak points. There are so many different types of spírits that do that sort of thing. Some just want negative energy so they home in on a persons weak points and flood their minds with whatever problem … to give an example… Low self esteem. They wíll flood the person mind with such thoughts that they are worthless etc… and the person having low self esteem believes it and goes into deep emotional pain beating themselves up, all the while the cretin is sucking off the negative energy. If you don’t recognise what is happening they can cause suicide. This is not like depression, but it feels like depression…
There are other sexual predators out there that don’t want to have sex with the person, but drive a person to do things sexually they would not normally do. That is why I always tell people to be cautious with different beings from other dimensions. But alas it falls on deaf ears. Not everything out there is sweet and nice…. Are aliens from other planets or are they other dimensional beings…. I think they are other dimensional beings to be treated with caution.

[quote]One of the commentors noticed--as did I--that Hestia never mentioned having called on God (or Jésus or her Angels) for help. For many of us, that would have been the first thing that crossed our minds...that inward (if not outward) plea for help. But who knows if that would have ceased the "relationships" she had already consented to. They got her through flattery. They found her weak spot...that she was better than others, that she was of a "Higher Place." They gave her a pedestal and she did not hesitate to claim it.

The Incubus was smart, it appealed to her ego and she was not strong enough in herself to resist. When one is on the spíritual path the hardest thing to fight is the ego…
When I was in my early 30s there was something terribly evil trying to take my body over…. (I was stíll at that stage of devouring spíritual books and religious books) It was consummate evil, and it would cóme while I was asleep and I would fight it for ages then it would leave. One night I fought it for so long I was so weak I felt I was dying…. With my last breathe I called Jésus and it never came back. When it use to happen it struck terror right through me. Later I read of cases where people who have experienced such a being have been taken over and turned really evil… darn scary. Thank God I had the sense to call on Jésus. I have never been a religious person although I love Jésus, but calling Jésus worked.

[quote]I remember reading a long while back in a book or two about women who had spírit lovers. One story was of a woman who had an ongoing relationship with a male spírit who was her husband from one of her past líves. Another woman was frequently visited by her deceased husband from the current life but when she met a new man, the spírit husband eventually backed off and left her in peace with his blessing, I believe. So, it's not always an unknown incubus or, for men, a succubus that seduces, but spírits from our present or past líves. So, technically, are deceased loved ones (or in the case of abusive spouses, maybe not someone you loved) succubi and incubi? And can a truly good spírit, fall in love with a human and mate with him/her with no intention of being abusive?

I read a book years ago … I think it was called “Divine Encounters” or something like that. It was of a woman that had an ongoing sexual relationship with a spírit, and she had no intentions of giving it up. She was totally in love with the spírit.
I knew an old lady who told me that after her husband died he came back and had sex with her. But I often wonder about this sort of thing… is it the actual deceased husband or a sexual predator masking as the deceased husband? It would be hard to know unless a person was sensitive enough to know the energy signature of the deceased partner. My mother was married to my dad more than 50 years and the moment he came into the house after he died she knew straight away, because she was sensitive enough to know his energy signature.
I have never heard of spírits coming and bashing people, although I have read a story once of a spírit biting someone all over... hummmm It would be hard to know if the spírit was a deceased loved one or a partner from another life....
