I have been planning on making a video about this topic, but I never did, then I decided to make a blog about this instead. I may still do a video about this, haven't decided yet.
Disclaimer: All these views are my own and you may not believe in these topics the same way I do, which is completely OK, I am just stating my own ideas and helping those who are not informed or would like a second opinion on this topic. I am also not claiming this to be fact nor fiction, this is what I believe to be true to me, not to everyone else.
I have been avidly watching many videos online that dealt with the same topic: haunted dolls. This then sparked the animal in me to check the internet for haunted items of all sorts. The main problem that I had with many of the items was that the seller was confused about the difference between haunted and what I call “energy signatures”. These energy signatures are what I consider to be the change of vibrational energy of an object or place from the repetition of the touch or presence of a person or other living thing. This is what most people are misinterpreting as a haunted object or place.
Now you may be asking, “I really don't understand what this is.” For the longest time, I didn't either. Then one day it dawned on me what was being misinterpreted as an energy “thing”. Follow this link to an AMAZING blog post about how energy relates to magick really speaks about what energy is to us: http://pagantoday.wordpress.com/2008/01/02/where-does-magic-come-from/. A signature is something that is unique to each one of us, no matter how many people try to forge it, this is the one thing that defines us as a person, and makes us unique. So an energy signature will be one of those things that is unique to us and only we can make ourselves and cannot be forged. Our energy signatures may change overtime but they will have the same undertone, YOU. These energy signatures can then be transferred from you to any object or place that you are with A LOT. So picture this, every person vibrates at a completely different level than everyone else. So then every object can hold an unlimited amount of vibrations but keeps them separate, so when you touch an object or stand in a room, it would register with your vibrational frequency and then it would contain your energy or energy signature. Then when you would continuously touch or come back to whatever you had before it would continue to register your frequency. When you leave and anyone with any form of energy sensing abilities they would be able to feel your presence. That is why a lot of empaths and energy sensing people like to be at home or in the same places all the time. So that crazy lady who lives down the street may not actually be crazy, she just doesn't like the energy signatures all around her.
As you can see these energy signatures are all around you. There is no way around this. So all objects have a signature attached to it, but the main energy that is associated with it is the signature that most frequently visited it. It is kinda like the cane that an old man had and he may have gotten it from a store where hundreds of other people may have touched that very cane, but he bought it and he used it for 30 years. So that cane, although it was touched by hundreds of people, his signature would be the one that most energy sensors would pick up on. So that being said what objects would you have that have your signature on it and would not be outdone by someones energy that is not your own?
Then people get energy signatures and hauntings mixed up for a few simple and easily mistakable reasons. One, you can sense both presences, like in the instance of the old man and the cane, if he decided one day to get a new cane and get rid of the old one. Anyone with energy sensing abilities they would be able to sense that an old man had the item, they may be able to give certain details with the old mans life but his spirit energy is not attached to it for he is still alive. But for instance if he died and still owned the cane, apart of his spirit energy would be attached to that item. That is why people are so interested in antiques, because they are forever trying to find their missing items. (another topic for another time) Two, there are people that are not adept in knowing the difference, but able to feel energies, so they try to sell their items as a “haunted item”. Then the person that gets the item is disappointed because they are expecting a mystical item that reminisces the old horror films. So then they try to scam the next unwary buyer, making real haunted items have a bad name.
A haunted item is an item that has a piece or a whole persons spirit energy attached to it. A spirit energy is released from a body when someone dies or passes over. Then the spirit energy can then pass over or stay here when there is unfinished business. (I went a little Caspar the Friendly Ghost there, sorry) When it stays here it needs to attach to something, and only appears when something with something that has an energetic signature attached to it, but it needs something with a lot of energy, that is why when you can feel a presence of a spirit/etc your cell phone dies, that spirit energy needs your cellular energy to be there at that moment. I'm not saying that if they didn't have that latest technology that they aren't there, energy is all around us, in forms of heat and cold and everything else, but it is not enough for them, that is why they flock towards more energetic things like your cell phone.
Knowing the difference between the items, you are able to use each to your own benefit. If you have an item that you just don't like the feel of, sit with it for a while see why you don't like it, is it haunted or is it just an energy signature. You can rid of energy signatures in a variety of ways, any way that you feel fit is the correct way, I like to find the best way suited for the job, such as smudge sticks, salt, sprays, meditation, visualization, etc. Like I said, find the best way that suits your needs. But if it is a haunted item, sometimes it could be as simple as ridding it of an energy signature, but sometimes it may actually need some more TLC from an experienced person in the field or you could have one angry MOFO on your butt and have a whole reign of terror in your life, not pretty. Or take the alternative route and GET RID OF IT. But there is a way to rid the item of the spirit, sometimes it is as easy as asking it of why it is still here and it could just take a second opinion from you for it to pass on. Sometimes it could be revenge, it is not recommended to take this revenge on someone or something, BAD JUJU. If you must have the item find someone who is experienced in the field or like I said before, rid yourself of the item, burn, bury or donate. (if the situation is not terribly bad)
