I had the wierdest experience last night and wondered what you guys make of this.
I have been having some relationship problems lately and cast a spell last week to see if t might help. I don't think its worked, since nothing has actually changed, and I have never cast a spell that worked yet anyway, so it was no surprise that it didn't work.
Anyway, last night, I was tired, and went to bed early. I was laid in bed thinking about how things could be if only we could get round the obstacles, and was thinking about us cuddled up in bed. Anyway, the next thing, I got the wierdest warm feeling that someone was laid behind me, cuddled up to me. I couldn't physically feel there arms, but I could feel the energy, you know like you do when someone is there. It was a warm loving feeling, not a scary feeling (I am a wimp and would have screamed the house down had it felt scary lol). I could even feel the shape of the energy, I was laid on my side with my knees up, and this invisible 'person' was laid in the same position, cuddled in to my back with an arm over me. I have never had a mental illness, I have never had hallucinations, and my imagination is rubbish, I have never been able to create things in my mind that I want to happen, I even struggle with visulisations, so this was wierd. But I did't want it to go away, it was such a nice feeling. And my whole body felt alive, like it was being generated by something, for want of a better word. It was so wierd but so nice.
Eventually the feeling went and I tried to make it happen again, but couldn't which is sad.
What do you guys make of this? Am I totoally nuts and engaging in some serious wishful thinking, am I suffering from a mental illness....or is it somehthing amazing that I don't understand?
I agree with Adraxis. I am a big day dreamer and such. I have had similar experiences before. I think it happens when you are in a certain state of mind and when you are concentrating on it, but not expecting it to happen....then it does! If you try to make it happen...it ususally doesn't :(
You are definately not crazy and you do not have a mental illness my dear. So rest easy!
I think Adraxis and turtlegirl are bang on. The mind is a very powerful tool in spellcasting, even for the most inexperienced witch. To want something so much, to ache for it, yearn for it, the energies that wanting generates can just build up and up so that when it reaches a breaking point there is such a burst of psionic energy it can manifest in some very strange, very surprising ways.
It could be a person astrally projecting. I've had similar experiences before with an astral person. In some cases u can feel ppl like that when they astrally project.
