A vulnerable topic on personal loss i don't see people who can connect with spirit talk about

Since I was young ive been able to connect with spirits and other entities. Ive also shown other gifts since i was young like knowing things I shouldnt, knowing when something bad was going to happen etc... I eventually had a scary situation happen to me and my third eye closed for a long time, opened up again, then I went through tremendous trauma, loss, and grief and it closed again.

Recently I have began opening it back up now that I'm in a good spot and reconnecting with my spirituality that ive closed myself off from for so long. A big part of that re connection for me has been meditation and also what I like to call connection meditation where I cast a protective circle to keep out negative/bad spirits and to make sure im truly connecting to people i love, not something pretending to be a loved one.

During these meditations I can physically feel the energy and presence of so many people ive lost kneeling around me. Some I can tell who they are, some I cant quite pin point but I can tell its someone I love and/or care about. Over the last 6 years ive been to about 8 or 9 funerals for friends and family, mostly friends all in their 20s. My heart aches and yearns for them, for their presence one last time.

When I connect to them and I can physically feel them around me, see them in my head with my eyes closed, it feels almost impossible to break that connection. I just now was connecting and could feel myself surrounded by people and by love and I never wanted to leave. Spirit had to put one of my candles out and jolt me "awake" to break the connection because I was beginning to cry and mourn. I believe it was my friend Kayla reminding me that im alive and to not let myself try to live among the dead.

I began to realize that I have never heard anyone who has gifts talk about how hard it is not to over use it for yourself and your own loss. How do people who do this for a living like mediums not constantly be in connection with people they love and miss so dearly? Its never talked about how hard it is to not just let yourself be in that trance forever, to live there with the people you miss most and would give anything to see again. The pain I feel when it comes to knowing they're so close yet so far is overwhelming and forcing yourself to not constantly make that connection is a tug of war within yourself.

I wonder how many people who share my gifts or people who exceed my abilities have this same inner struggle. Please share if you have similar experiences ✨️

Believing in the supernatural and a spirit realm/afterlife while practicing pantheist paganism

Naturally, pantheists do not believe in the supernatural. Things like demons, ghosts, or an afterlife usually would go against the core beliefs within pantheism. Reincarnation or returning to the earth as energy is more whats believed with afterlife and things like a spirit plane, demons etc... aren't believed because of the panthism belief that nature, energy, and the physical universe all intertwine and are identical to the devine.

However, certain branches of paganism do beleive in all of those things. Spirits or entities that aren't human (sometimes referred to as demons), an afterlife like Summerland or reincarnation, spirits/ghosts in general. A large part of the modern community of pagans believe in all of this. So where does that leave someone who beleives in the core of pantheism but also believes in these other parts outside of pantheism like pagans?

First things first, you can believe whatever you want! You can be a pantheist that simply beleives in ghosts and non-human entities, its YOUR belief system and theres nothing stopping you from tweaking something like pantheism or paganism into what fits you best. With that being said, pantheist paganism takes from both practices and beliefs and swirls together. I personally believe in reincarnation but a piece of us stays behind to look over loved ones while the rest of our soul/energy either returns to the universe/earth or reincarnates into something completely new, depends on the case at hand. I also believe there is a realm outside of ours for the supernatural (i believe in the multiverse and alternate dimensions also, but that's an entirely different discussion lol). I have had paranormal experiences and I do believe that it ties into both pantheism and paganism. Pantheism beleives the universe and nature and everything existing within it are god within itself, the devine, a indescribable energy that humans cant even fully comprehend. So with that belief in mind, how is it so hard to say that said energy cant break off into different realms and/or come together to create things like "demons". A demon to me is negative energy that has taken a form and become sentient, feeding off of the energy of humans or other energy sources to become stronger (theres more to all that for me, but im keeping it simple). In my personal opinion, that beleif makes sense for someone who believes the core beliefs of pantheism. Its all about energy and magic within that energy.

Paganism within pantheism is a big part of what makes sense to me for my personal overall beliefs, taking what I resonate with from both and leaving behind what I don't. That's what spirituality is, following your path and what makes you feel grounded. What makes sense to you. Theres no reason to beleive "well theres a couple things I dont resonate with within this spiritual belief so I guess I dont belong". No, find what makes sense to you, and follow it. There are no rules in spirituality, just feelings and belief!

My journey with spirituality and how I found pantheist paganism

I have recently learned about pantheism and the beliefs and practices surrounding it. I have went from a Wiccan, to just a witch, then to paganism. I never could find fully what I beleive in which in a nut shell is that nature and energy is a force in and of itself and what I would beleive to be "God". I have always beleived that God's are parts of earth, elements, lessons, history.... that have been given a physical form to be able to connect easier but not actually real people who once lived (with some exceptions). Wicca felt right for that because some Wiccans beleive the gods actually existed, some beleive what i do, so I practiced as a wiccan witch for years. But then I ran into a lot of boundaries and rules that I did not agree with, like the rules of 3 for example. I moved on to dropping the "Wiccan" and just referring to myself as a witch. Then I felt paganism was more open, less rules and lines I wasn't allowed to cross. So I started practicing as a pagan witch. Now I have come across pantheism and my god, this "religion" was built for me. Its hard to find information about paganism and pantheism working together but from what ive found they compliment each other nicely and it is very easy to practice pantheism within paganism and also quite common. Pantheism is a belief that we are all energy, we all intertwine with the universe, and there us no one God. God is not a person, it is an entity, an energy. Something that as a human we cant even describe or comprehend, it is a moving mass of energy and nature that fills our universe. That is what I have always beleived, we are souls within a body, not a body with a soul. We are energy, we are magic in a vessel. The stars, the moon, planets, plants, nature etc... all of that holds energy that we can tap into for spell work. After reading more about pentheism and learning that pantheism is exactly what I beleive I feel like I have found where I belong within a community while still taking parts from paganism that resonates with me. Im so excited to begin practicing within a community I feel so connected to🥹✨️🖤
