- 0:37calling you guys that because it's kind of cute, kind of funny. So
- 0:40welcome to today's podcast. Today on Spunky Spirit, we are going to talk
- 0:43about shadow people and what they are. Lots of the reason why is because
- 0:50I've been doing some readings and I'm getting lots of parents coming in and saying
- 0:54that their children are starting to see them. And I remember seeing them when
- 0:57I was younger too, and so we're going to talk about them because we're
- 1:00going to talk about what they can be, what you can't do, all
- 1:06those types of things. When I did a pull on my Instagram, I
- 1:10asked how many of my followers had seen a shadow person or had experience with
- 1:15a shadow person. Sixty four percent of vio said that you have had experiences
- 1:21with a shadow person. And when I was listening to UM Dave Schrader his
- 1:27podcast, when he was asking, he says when he gets He said in
- 1:30one of his podcasts that when he got up and asked the audience, about
- 1:34sixty percent of them said that they had had a shadow experience. So that's
- 1:40about right. So, so what what is the shadow what is what are
- 1:44the shadow people? What are they? So? Um, A lot of
- 1:48people think most of the people, about eighty percent of the people I've talked
- 1:52to, they're not very good experiences. The shadow people kind of make them,
- 1:57make them scared or fear them, which in my experiences it has been
- 2:02the same. So, but there's are people out there that have had good
- 2:07experiences with shadow people. Some people say that they have protected them. So
- 2:12it was The term shadow person was built in the nineteen nineties by a man
- 2:19M. A. J. Andrews, who wrote an article in support of
- 2:22this of this phenomena, and he had personal experiences himself and referred to them
- 2:27as the shadow people throughout his writing. So they're described as dark or black
- 2:31figures that have human like shape. They can be mists, they can be
- 2:38other forms that we'll talk about too. They are often seen in dimly lit
- 2:42areas and mostly reported in bedrooms and hallways. And many of the people who
- 2:46do have this encounter a shadow person do it in either the early early morning
- 2:52or late at night, and that's been my experience too, but there have
- 2:55been some people who have taken naps in the middle of the day and had
- 2:59experiences so and a lot of times too, shadow people will show up right
- 3:05when you wake up, or they'll show up while you're awake, and sometimes
- 3:07they show up when you're in that dream state I talk about that tinker bell
- 3:13time, that astral round time, when you're half asleep and half awake,
- 3:15and a lot of times they'll be prevalent during when you get sleep paralysis when
- 3:22you're in that And I think I have a whole episode on sleep paralysis in
- 3:27itself, but one of the options are and I'm kind of getting in ahead
- 3:30of myself here, but since we're talking about sleep peralysis, one of the
- 3:32things says that during sleep paralysis, if you see a shadow figure, it's
- 3:37because you are astral traveling and don't realize it, and when you wake up,
- 3:42your body's not there, so you can't move, and then the shadow
- 3:45person that you see is actually your spirit coming back. But I also know
- 3:50that that has a lot of fear to it, So I don't know if
- 3:53when this actually happens, if you're fearing the fact that you can't wake up
- 3:57and you're all afraid, or if you're in or if you're fearing the shadow
- 4:01thing. I kind of feel like, you know, a lot of impass
- 4:05or intuitives can feel if this if they're scared because they're scared, or if
- 4:11they can feel an darker energy, and I kind of feel like, shut
- 4:15up people. The ones that I've encountered have a little bit of darker energy,
- 4:18so it's kind of They're often described as being from four to six feet
- 4:25tall, and they have no face, and usually sometimes they have no eyes,
- 4:29except for some people have said that they have yellow and red eyes.
- 4:32The one that I did see actually did have red eyes, and they have
- 4:36long, muscular arms and legs. They just kind of have a person figure.
- 4:43Some of them have clothes, you can tell. Some of them have
- 4:46top hats or hats or capes. It's just all different people's experience. They're
- 4:50often seeing wearing dark clothing like trench clothes, trench coats, and obviously it's
- 4:56black or it's just an outline of it. So it is kind of interesting,
- 5:00no, because it's it's interesting just like people. Shadows and energy are
- 5:06good and bad. People are good and bad. And when you watch the
- 5:10shack and they're they're taking this the guy to meet his father, all of
- 5:16the different energies have a different light, but they're all shaped as humans,
- 5:20and this is kind of the same thing. It's just a dark it's just
- 5:24a dark color. It's a black color. So um, so there you
- 5:30go. I feel like shadow people are around a lot. A lot of
- 5:32people think that once they start digging into the spiritual realm that these shadow people
- 5:38show up. I believe they've always been there. They've always been there.
- 5:41You're just more awake to see them now, or you're more opening to see
- 5:46them. So some people think that they are there, have been, like
- 5:53they've been known clear in the beginning. Like lots of different cultures, how
- 6:00I've talked about shadow people. They the Chinese have a different name for him,
- 6:03Ireland, Scotland, they all have a different name for him. And
- 6:06even the Native Americans thought that we had three parts of our soul and one
- 6:12of them being the shadow. And so a lot of Native Americans think that
- 6:15the shadow part is that part of their soul. It's just some of them
- 6:20can be really tall, and most people experience when they Most people who experience
- 6:27this phenomenon phenomen non say that these shadow fingers are used sometimes seen in the
- 6:31corner of their eye and then they look and they disappear, or they can
- 6:35look straight into him. A lot of the information that I got for this
- 6:40podcast is from my own experience and a book called A Walk in the Shadows
- 6:45by Mike wreck Rick sector I'll put the link to that book in the show
- 6:51notes, and he kind of says, there's safe, there's ones that aren't
- 6:57real. I mean, there's ones that are nice and some that are bad.
- 7:00He kind of goes into more depth and a lot of his book is
- 7:02about different experiences that have people have had with the shadow man. Some of
- 7:06these shadow men are also known as the hat man because some of the shadows
- 7:12have like tall top hats. I have experienced, um shadow people. I
- 7:19have three of my children who have experienced the shadow the shadow people, So
- 7:25um, it's kind of a paranormal thing. It is a very paranormal thing,
- 7:29and that's why it's made it to this this episode. Just remember,
- 7:33I don't know where I where I stand on this. I don't know where
- 7:35they came from. I don't know. I know I have this experience.
- 7:39And so you take from this what you want to what resonates with you,
- 7:43and you feel like what you what resonates with you and what is easiest for
- 7:47your mind to hold on to about what these what these figures do, and
- 7:51what they want and what kind of what types there are. So there's the
- 7:58classic one just human shaped shadow people. These are human shaped and most commonly
- 8:05experienced, and they come in a variety of combinations, with or without hats,
- 8:11yellow eyes, green eyes, hoods, capes, all those kind of
- 8:15things. They're usually male, usually people feel like they're male, and they're
- 8:22just seen as black shadows, like this black dark figure. And they can
- 8:26start as missed and then come to the black figure or but the black figure
- 8:30is a human shaped and it's sometimes most of the time it miss It doesn't
- 8:33have hair or facial features. You can't really see their hands. They're just
- 8:39kind of a black like a black shadow, and and when you look at
- 8:45them directly, they disappear. Sometimes some of them don't, some have.
- 8:48Some people have actually kind of very very very rarely people have actually felt like
- 8:56they've actually grobbed people by the feet and things like that. That that's up
- 9:01to you. That's up to you to decide. That's just what I'm what
- 9:03they are telling me. They can travel through walls and doors and um.
- 9:11They also couldn't come an animal shaped there's there's um some people that say most
- 9:18human ones are the most common. Some of them actually will see shadows of
- 9:22animals and they are like small animals and they run across the floor or rabbits,
- 9:28cats, dogs, things like that. Shadow cats are the most common.
- 9:33That's probably why black cats get their get their bad luck because the shadow
- 9:39maybe that's the one that showed up most of the time. And so people
- 9:43just kind of but have people have actually claimed too to see spiders. So
- 9:48that's that's that's different. I've never even heard of that too. But it
- 9:52can shop as a black mist and a black shadow too, So it's just
- 9:56it's got a less human form and it appears like a cloud or a dark
- 10:01smoke or and it can like a blurred vision and that could be like anywhere
- 10:07in the room or anywhere on the ceiling. I think I did have a
- 10:09client once that said Hurst was on the ceiling a lot so and then also
- 10:15too in the forest. So you can see black shadow people forest shadow people
- 10:22in trees and outdoors. They're called shadow stalkers, and they hang around the
- 10:28trees and they're said to be harmless. They act as protectors to guard nature.
- 10:33So honestly, if these ones are good and protect nature, then maybe
- 10:37the ones that we see, some of them are good and protect us.
- 10:41Right. Other types of shadow figures have been studied in Disgusted, but these
- 10:46are the most ones. Some of them think that they're you know, what
- 10:52are some of the theories behind these these shadow people. Some of them think
- 10:54they're aliens. Some think their time travels, astral travelers, or inter dimensional
- 11:00beings. I've had I've seen some, like I said in that National Realm,
- 11:05the Tinker Belt time half sleep and half wake. But I've also seen
- 11:07some, Um, I'm gonna be honest, I've seen one without that,
- 11:13without being asleep, and um, this was when you know, this was
- 11:18a scary. This was not a good experience for me. It was pretty
- 11:20scary, and and my husband was there, so he is. He came
- 11:26out, he didn't see the shadow person, but the shadow thing got really
- 11:30ticked at me because I was telling it to leave. I was not happy,
- 11:35and it knocked down as it was leaving through my closet. It knocked
- 11:39down my dream board and all of the things that were on my shelf.
- 11:43And my husband was like, what the heck was that? And I'm like,
- 11:46that was he went. We went in and all of my into the
- 11:48closet and it was all my dream boards, all of my pictures, everything
- 11:52were shadowed all over the floor. And my husband's very sensitive too, so
- 11:56he and he's the one, you know that his claim to your big foot.
- 12:00So he did not bad at eye, especially with the kind of work
- 12:03that I do. So it was he was like, what the heck?
- 12:07So of course we smudge did all the things. That one wasn't a very
- 12:11nice one, and that one seems to like some of these they can,
- 12:16you know, stick around for a while. But here's some of the theories
- 12:18of what they are. And I am not against any of these they because
- 12:22this is one of those things where you just don't know, right, we
- 12:24don't know, We have no idea, nobody has an explanation for it scientifically
- 12:28or anything like that. So these are some of the theories they're some of
- 12:33Some people theorize that they are a form of evil, and their form of
- 12:37evil spirits or ghosts, and they are they are malevolent, and they aren't
- 12:43here to help, and they are here to scare us, and they just
- 12:48want your energy and they like to live off your energy because your energy is
- 12:52like a bad goes through there and that makes me wonder if it got screwed
- 12:56up. So in another theory, it has stated that these shadow figures are
- 13:01shadows of people who are having an ad of body experience, an astra projection.
- 13:07Like I said, you are doing an astra projection. You're coming back,
- 13:13and your shadow comes through and it's you're you're coming back, and your
- 13:18your spirit isn't back into your body, So it's astra projection is like an
- 13:22add of body experience and OBE which occurs when a person when your spirit leaves
- 13:28your physical body or your consciousness leaves your physical body and travels through the astral
- 13:33plane and when you come back, this is what people think sleep process is
- 13:37your body wakes up, but your spirits not back yet, and so you
- 13:41the the shadow is your spirit actually coming back into your body. But the
- 13:48book that I read mostly said that that's very rare that the shadow people and
- 13:52the sleep prosis are combined. So another theory is that they're time travelers.
- 14:01They're traveling from the future and in to the past in our present time,
- 14:05and they're moving throughout our timeline and they appear as shadows. That's kind of
- 14:09an interesting one. I just don't know why they would hurt, like want
- 14:15to hurt some people too. Another explanation is that they're interdimensional and they come
- 14:20from a higher dimension and they exist somewhere beyond our dimension, and they come
- 14:26through as portals, and this dimension exists parallel or close to ours. Now,
- 14:31this is the same thing as spirits though, like because when people pass
- 14:33over and they go to heaven right there at a different dimension or they're a
- 14:37different at different time, and they come through and visit too, So I
- 14:41don't know what the difference would be, right, Like, it's kind of
- 14:43maybe they're two different frequency, these dark shadows, and they come through.
- 14:48They can kind of pack of access sometimes and some people can see them and
- 14:52some people can't. And also to you, some people think that they're aliens
- 14:56coming from another dimension and manifesting a shadow form as they interact with us.
- 15:01So that was kind of interesting too. And a lot of two, A
- 15:05lot of people think that by science it says that shadow people is nothing but
- 15:13our own imagination or science related, like we're not getting so a lot of
- 15:18times with sleep paralysis, the reason why we see them is because we're not
- 15:22getting enough oxygen if we're sleeping on our backs. That's why a lot of
- 15:26people think that sleep people with that have sleep paralysis are back sleepers. But
- 15:31some people have reported these things even when they're on their side or they're on
- 15:37their stomachs. And some people think that a lot of people have sleepeptiath they're
- 15:41not getting enough oxygen which makes them have hallucinations, and that if you get
- 15:46a CPAP or something to that effect, it will help you breathe better,
- 15:50and it will not it'll help you so you don't have sleep process anymore.
- 15:54And sometimes though some people think when they wake up and they can't move their
- 16:00body, they feel like it sits on their chest and they can't move their
- 16:06body. To me, this is something different. There's also other things that
- 16:11this could be that other cultures have written about things like the hag back in
- 16:18the day and the incubus and things like that. So, but a lot
- 16:23of some scientifically scientists think that this occurs right before we're falling asleep and before
- 16:30we're waking up in that tinker bell time and we're hallucinating. And some people
- 16:34even believe that we create them out of our own fear, that we because
- 16:41when we go through spiritual awakenings or or things like that, that they are
- 16:47attracted to our mental and emotional fear, and so we kind of create it.
- 16:51Or if we've had some trauma in the past and we can't deal with
- 16:55it, we create it ourselves, and then when we get older and have
- 16:59to deal with it, that trauma resurfaces. And some people believe that it's
- 17:03that, but it's I don't know. I don't know about that. I
- 17:08don't know, you know, I mean, that could be true. I
- 17:11here's the thing, I don't know. I know, I've experienced it.
- 17:14I know it's real. But why do sixty four of the population or sixty
- 17:19percent of the population experience it and the others don't. And it's not because
- 17:23anybody's better than anybody else, right, it's just that maybe more people are
- 17:29more detailed or they know more aware of what's going on. So who knows.
- 17:33But how do you protect yourself from shadow figures? This is kind of
- 17:37like what we talked about last week. It's kind of the same as hexes
- 17:41and curses and things like that. So if you the one thing that you
- 17:48want to try is to control your fears. For some REASO, that's because
- 17:53what the that's what they live on, so or that's what they're there for.
- 17:56Is that fear, that energy, that's what they like. And the
- 18:00that the part is is they can do that to children. Children are easy
- 18:03access and so if and this is another thing too, So if your child
- 18:08does come out to sleep with you at night because they are scared and they
- 18:12see that they saw a dark shadow or something like that, let them sleep
- 18:17with you because the child believes that you will protect them and because they believe
- 18:21that it's true. So so just like if you believe Jesus will protect you,
- 18:26or if some of you believe the Evil I will protect you, or
- 18:27some of you believe that Sage will protect you, the child believes that you
- 18:30will protect them. So when you're with them, it will it will they
- 18:36will have that protection. So in fact, my mom I will sleep being
- 18:40I've told the story many times, but I sleep on the side of the
- 18:42bed. I would sleep on my mom's side of the bed all the time,
- 18:45on the floor constantly because of all these things that would happen when I
- 18:49was little. So one you can say prayers or put out in the universe,
- 18:55ask on ask for God's or angels to help you. God or angels
- 18:59help you. You can ask for the protective angels. You can say Jesus's
- 19:03name, you can ask for Jesus' self help. You can ask for the
- 19:07warrior angels. You can ask for arch angel Michael to come. You can
- 19:11do all those things before you go to bed or at night and ask for
- 19:14them to come help you. The trick is is you have to believe it.
- 19:18You have to believe that these things will help you. You can do
- 19:21meditation every day to help you raise your frequency. The one thing I have
- 19:26found is to get the one thing that helped me to get rid of some
- 19:29of these things is raising my frequency, and that's by meditation, more awakening,
- 19:34doing more meditation, anything that and honestly, to raise your frequency is
- 19:40to get rid of that shadow. See that's why, that's why it's part
- 19:45of me wonders. You know, you got to go through that shadow work.
- 19:48And just because that shadow is that part of your shadow work that you're
- 19:52doing, we don't know exactly. So learn, you know, the psycho
- 20:00defenses, like white light around you at all times, or meditation and using
- 20:04cloaks any kind of that thing. Or you could pretend you have an aerosol
- 20:08can and you sprayed around and that protects you. Crystals I was talking about
- 20:15this last week. You can use crystals, amethyst, termuline, any kind
- 20:19of black any kind of black crystal will help you from that negative energy and
- 20:26things like that. If the situation gets worse, you can seek help from
- 20:32if I've had lots of kids come to me about shadow people and termulin and
- 20:40stage in their room has worked phenomenally, but it's not a one and done
- 20:45thing. Guys. You got to keep doing it every month. So and
- 20:48also too, if you're struggling with some of these shadow stuff, don't play
- 20:52with things like pendulums or Wuiji boards. Just be safe, don't be stupid.
- 20:56They're just not something you have to really have a good intention. So
- 21:02kind of avoid that stuff if you're dealing with something like this, and again,
- 21:06sprinkle some sea salt around your bed or in the corners of your room,
- 21:10in the front of your house, down the hall. Those we talked
- 21:14about salt last week too. And if you've noticed the things that we talk
- 21:17about, it's just a protection of an energy. Everything is energy, right,
- 21:21So even curses or hexes that we talked about last week their energy.
- 21:26These shadow things their energy, And so how do you protect yourself from this
- 21:30energy? Kind of all the same way, kind of all the same way.
- 21:33So, and I think this is my opinion. I think it's all
- 21:37somehow related. I think paranormal stuff, crypto stuff, which is fairies and
- 21:45gnomes and Bigfoot all that stuff, and alien I think it's all somehow combined.
- 21:52And I know people think it's separate. I know people are like,
- 21:55no, this is one thing, this is one thing. I think it
- 21:57has to be. We're it's awesome how combined. And I got this theory
- 22:02watching Skinwalker because they're dealing with ufl presence and paranormal stuff, and it's the
- 22:10same outcome, it's the same radiation levels, it's the same all the things.
- 22:15So my thing is I'm one of those people who wants to know why,
- 22:18why do these things happen? I used to be just love and light
- 22:22and I see I help people heal and I see people that have passed over,
- 22:27and but now I want to know why because I only I also want
- 22:32to help the people who have passed over. I want to help them if
- 22:34they need it, and why are they stuck here? And what's going on?
- 22:37And if they are stuck here, I want to know why. And
- 22:41I want to know how things work, because that's just to who I am.
- 22:44So so, if you have any kind of these experiences, do those
- 22:48things ask it to leave. You can ask it to leave, but you
- 22:53have to be too really strong. They I have had experience in a couple
- 22:59I have had experiences where I've asked them to leave and that that made that
- 23:03one mad and they kind of they will maybe get mad. If it's a
- 23:07bad one, they'll maybe get mad, but they have to they have to
- 23:11leave. If you believe in your own power, if you're super scared and
- 23:14you're like, uh, could you just please leave, they will kind of
- 23:18laugh at that. You have to stand in your power and just know that
- 23:21you are way more powerful than these things way more powerful. Your light is
- 23:25strong, you have everything you need inside of you, and if you just
- 23:27believed in yourself as much as that, it's all. This is why I
- 23:30always say, you guys, it's always shadow work. It's always work.
- 23:34The best way to raise your vibration and the best way to communicate is to
- 23:41look inside yourself and and and you have everything you need inside you. And
- 23:47it's all believing in who you are and believing in what you can do and
- 23:51what is possible. And this is why, this is why self help and
- 23:56healing is so important, because when you really eyes who you are and what
- 24:00you can become and what you can manifest and what you can create, it
- 24:06would it would change it just it's and you don't see your power. They
- 24:11do, but they realize you don't understand it, and so they're safe from
- 24:15that. But if you step into that, you're going to be able to
- 24:19be, to be limitless, to be. Yeah. So if you run
- 24:25into these, if you've had these kind of experiences, let me know.
- 24:29Email me at Carrie at carrie mugs dot com and let me know because I'm
- 24:34interested in seeing Lots of my clients have had these experiences and so I just
- 24:41thought this might help you if you're in that deal or if you didn't,
- 24:44and if you haven't had this experience, don't worry about it. I don't
- 24:48want to place fear in you because there's a reason why you haven't and you
- 24:51probably won't, so I just don't want to, you know, implement that
- 24:55fear. Another thing too that I've noticed is when these kind of negative energies
- 25:02or hauntings are around, it's it's a lot of there's some broken family issues,
- 25:07or there's some struggling with the family, or somebody in the families got
- 25:11depression, or somebody in the families deal. And that's not a one percent
- 25:15normal thing. I mean, that's not a one hundred percent across the board
- 25:18type of thing. It's just kind of most of the time. So just
- 25:23kind of watch and see which I gotta be honest, I love my family
- 25:26to death, but we you know, my dad was an alcoholic and it
- 25:30was a hard it wasn't the best circumstances to grow up in, and it
- 25:34was a lot of drama, a lot of stuff like that, and just
- 25:38so easily for these entities to thrive in just so easily for entities like this
- 25:44to thrive in. So so watch that always sage. And if you don't
- 25:48want to sage, you can do other things. I think I've done a
- 25:51podcast on that. You can do sprays, things like things like that salt
- 25:53around your house. So I hope this helps you. Guys. I love
- 25:57you so much, and please remember, do not let this scare you,
- 26:00because I do not fear is something false evidence appearing real, and and I
- 26:07don't just because if you do, just because I just don't want this diplomat
- 26:14fear, just because you are so much stronger than you believe to believe,
- 26:18and and honestly, it's not something to fear because most of the of the
- 26:23time they do not touch you, and they do not interact with you,
- 26:26and they do not hurt you. So hope that helps you. Guys.
