Ok, the first thing that I want to tell you is this is NOT THE MOVIES!!!!!  I have never been slimed....I have never seen a ghost puking, AND I have NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER found a house built on an indian burial ground!!!!!They can however cause problems in a house.

If you have children age 12 and under, and you have an earth bound spirit in your house, the kids are going to have upper respiratory problems (ear, nose and throat problems.)

They may end up in your bed at 2am every morning because they don't like their rooms. Adults could have a lot of unexplained headaches when you are home, moodiness, don't sleep well at night, or have bizarre dreams. Earth Bound spirits do not sleep or eat, and they are not on the same time schedule that we are, but what they do need is human energy to keep going, so if all or some of those health problems are occurring in your home look at the energy that they are using.

They can cause electrical problems in a house also, they don't use the electric but they disrupt it. Example.... light bulbs burning out all the time, if one stands close to a TV the picture will go fuzzy, and what do we say? "Darn that cable!" Why would we ever say “Darn that Ghost,�?who talks that way?

If you have a male earth bound spirit in your house, you could have a lot of trouble with heating, a/c, and plumbing...these are all things that men (sorry guys!), mess around with when they are alive and they still mess with them when they are dead.

Let me explain to you how I see earth bound spirits and how this came about. My grandmother realized when I was a little over 2, that I could see and speak to spirits. What she didn't realize is that most children can. She started taking me around to go to funerals when I was 4 years old. Every person that dies attends their funeral.

As a side note, I still attend approximately 15 funerals a month for total strangers. The family invites me to talk to their loved one for the last time you know, "Where is the insurance policy... who gets the stamp collection... and where is the key to the safety deposit box?"

I see a spirit the same way I would see you standing in front of me, the only difference is if I squinted I could see through them. I don't have to talk out loud to talk with them, it is all done mentally, which in some instances is a good thing, and language does not seem to be a barrier.

How does a spirit become earth bound? The white light that is around a person when they die, stays with them for approximately 72-80 hours after the cemetery. Most spirits will cross into the white light as soon as the priest or the minister has the final prayer service at the cemetery BUT..... nobody is in the light pulling them, nobody is here pushing them, you have free will when you are alive, you have free will when you are dead and if you don't want to go to the light you don't have to go.

Now, if you think about it, 72-80 hours is really enough time to be snoopy, and go through peoples houses (nobody is going to know you are there), and still give you enough time to cross over. If you don't go into the light before it closes, you lose it and you are earthbound.

There are all kinds of reasons why people don't cross over, for example: A young mother gets hit by the bus and she does not want to leave her children.... A person is murdered, they definitely need to tell someone who killed them.... Suicides, hardly ever cross over.

People are attached to their personal items. Two things that you really want to avoid at auction or estate sale, diamonds or vintage antique cars. I will almost guarantee you that you will bring someone home with you!!

It is also not true that somebody had to die in a house to stay there, they can go anywhere they want... who is going to tell them they can and can't do??.

I will have somebody call me, and ask if they have a spirit in their house. I will say yes.... They will say, "oh that is ok, I am moving in three weeks." Why, oh why, wouldn't that spirit go with them? You can also have a party and an earth bound spirit comes in with a guest, and decides that they like you house better and decide to stay.

Another thing is animals. Animal spirits can also be earth bound. A lot of times, somebody will ask if their dog can see an earth bound spirit if you move in to a new residence with your dog, and there is already a spirit there. Yes they can, but...your dog will think that you belong there, your husband belongs there, your 2.5 kids belong there, and the
spirit belongs there. The spirit was there before the dog!

If you move into a house with your dog, and there is no spirit there and one comes in, now your dog is going to treat your spirit as an intruder. On the other hand, and cat can be sound asleep and all of a sudden sit-up and start tracking something across the ceiling.  And what do you do, you go look to see where the spider is, and nothing is there.

Here is a little side note: If you dream of somebody who has passed, they have gone into the light.  Earth bound spirits almost NEVER can get into a dream. Plus, spirits that have crossed over can come back and forth and visit you and never cause problems in a house. Let me give you a couple of suggestions if you think you have earth bound spirits in your house...

The first thing that I suggest have your house blessed by an ordained priest or minister, and DO NOT THROW HOLY WATER AROUND YOURSELF!!!!!!!  It is one thing for an ordained priest or minister to use holy water but not a lay person. The other thing that I suggest is a smudge stick. For those who do not know, that is what native American Indians use to get rid of earth bounds spirits or negative energy.
