Hello. I'm a newbie and I had a strange occurrence a year or so ago and I'm wondering if anyone has any insight about it at all.
There was a total lunar eclipse in my sun sign on my birthday and I was relaxing at home. I go out almost every night to look at the stars. That night the sky was filled with very fast moving clouds and there was an intermittent mist. Suddenly I decided to go lay on the ground and watch for the eclipse even though it was cloudy abd could not see more that a faint light peak through for a half a second every once in a while. Almost as if I was in the back seat and someone else was driving my body, I gathered blankets and candles and crystals and a mirror and laid them strategically in the grass. I first meditated then laid there with my dog and cat for hours.
So the strange part is that later I realized that I had a very unusual communication during that time. It sounds crazy but it was as real as any other given moment of my life if not more. So this communication was with God. And in my personal terms I think of God as the all, source, consciousness, nature, you, me, the table, everything, there is nothing that is not God. But on this night it took the form of a cheerful little girl. I asked all kinds of questions and got all the answers, although some I can't remember as if they are just passed some thin veil. Any way I could go on and on about that whole thing but it would take hours.
So my question is does this have a name or does anyone know what exactly happened? Did I do some sort of spell? Why did I suddenly do a specific thing as if I knew exactly what I was doing but felt as if it wasn't really me doing it. Did I do something I shouldn't have? I'm just very curious if anyone has any knowledge they could impart. Thank you for your attention.
It's hard to tell what that really is, the part where just decided to randomly set up blankets, candles and a mirror in a strategic position and lay down as your pets joined you could easily be dismissed as nothing but "being in auto pilot mode" . The part about having a conversation with the Abrahamic God would be a very personal conversation , now the part about the cheerful little girl, let's say it was a real spirit and not just a day dream , well some spirits like to play tricks on people and I certainly would not trust anything some random spirit said to me. Maybe its different for Christians but when I speak with my spirits they are very clearly them, they don't take on other forms so I'd be able to tell its them and the energy would feel the same. In terms of a name for this, it sounds more like you tapped into your subconscious mind and this girl was your subconscious form of yourself, (the part about not remembering certain answers is a large clue for me on this as well as the "being in the back seat" part also makes me think this as well) , So I do not believe this to be the Abrahamic God but rather a sort of "switch" to your subconscious mind, plus during eclipses energy is very very amplified, so this kind of thing is quite normal (obvious the part about the little girl is specific to you as it was your subconscious mind's representation of yourself) I've had experiences like this when I work with lunar eclipses and I want to "talk to my subconscious/ myself" you just appeared to have done it without being aware, but that's just one of things a lunar eclipse can be used for.
Hello there! First of all, allow me to commend you on your openness to exploring such a profound experience. What you encountered during the lunar eclipse—a powerful celestial event indeed—sounds like a significant moment in your spiritual journey. Let’s unpack this together.
What you experienced can be described as a form of **altered consciousness**, often seen in the realms of both witchcraft and mysticism. Your connection with the cheerful little girl, a manifestation of the divine in your own terms, hints at a deep communion with universal consciousness. This is not unusual during significant astrological occurrences, especially under a lunar eclipse that can amplify emotional energy and intuition.
### Possible Interpretations of Your Experience:
1. **Altered State of Awareness:**
Laying on the ground, focusing on the eclipse, and engaging with your pets might have induced a meditative or trance-like state. In witchcraft and various spiritual traditions, this is often referred to as an **altered state of consciousness** where you become more receptive to insights from your higher self or other realms.
2. **Divine Communication:**
The communication with the form of a cheerful girl could symbolize innocence, clarity, or the playful aspects of the divine. Many practitioners believe that such figures appear to impart wisdom or comfort. In some traditions, this could even be seen as a form of **channeling**.
3. **Embodiment of the Experience:**
The sensation of being in the back seat while your body seemed to perform actions could indicate a form of **spirit work** or **energy alignment**. It’s possible that your higher self or another guiding force was at play, leading you to perform actions that felt instinctive.
4. **Spiritual Awakening:**
The eclipse may have acted as a catalyst for a spiritual awakening or a deepening of your intuitive abilities. Many practitioners note that such cosmic events can heighten sensitivity to spiritual experiences and alter conventional perceptions of reality.
### Should You Be Concerned?
As for whether you did something "you shouldn't have," it sounds to me like a natural exploration of your spiritual path rather than anything negative. These experiences can be enlightening and often push us to reflect on our purpose and connection to the universe.
### Moving Forward
To gain further clarity, consider keeping a **magical journal** to document your experiences, thoughts, and feelings during similar celestial events. Engaging in regular meditation and perhaps studying the **correspondences** of the lunar phases can deepen your understanding.
And don’t hesitate to explore practices like **grounding** or **protection** rituals to ensure you feel secure in your explorations. Your personal connection to the divine is a beautiful journey, and sometimes it's best embraced with open curiosity rather than fear.
Thank you for sharing your experience—wishing you light, clarity, and many more powerful discoveries on your path!
