I have had several of my own ACD's after the death of my live in boyfriend on March 23rd, 06. I believe he is my twin flame. He was very "clingy" while he was alive, we were inseperable.

At the hospital, he was on life support (in a coma). I used this telephone in the hospital ward throughout the entire day. I dialed out nine and then proceeded to call people. On this one occasion, I kept dialing out 9 but the phone would not work. The lady next to me tried the phone and she had no problems. I tried using the phone again it wouldnt work. I ran back to his bedside. The nurses told me his breathing had changed and he had his last breath a few minutes afterwards.........ACD or coincidence....you can decide for yourselves!

I went to a highly gifted spiritual medium 1 month after his death. I only told her his name and our relationship and she did the rest of the talking.....She had informed me he was still "earthbound" and clinging to me out of a sense of guilt and unresolved business. That made sense to me as I could feel a strong presence  near me on a daily basis. She told me I must forgive and release him. She reccommended I do it in a ceremonial manner.

I went home that night and got a little bit typsy ( maybe not the best way to deal with my grief!) I set up an alter with his pictures and personal items and lit a candle. I was crying....it was hard for me but I released him in the best way that I knew how.  

The next day my friend Gary phoned me. He is native and very spritual. He had never met my b/f, Pat. Gary told me that when he called me, my phone answered but I had never said "hello". He stayed on the phone and he heard me crying and talking to someone. (I was alone). Gary had then informed me that he heard a male voice (sounded far away) repeat my name and say I love you over and over again. Gary was fascinated and remained on the phone for over 50 minutes before everything got quiet.  

Those were 2 of my more obvious ACD's. I get the usual odd light flickering, cd that skips, and my bed sometimes shakes. The frustrating part about most ACD'S is that they can easily be mistaken for coincidences. I often wondir how many ACD's I actually receive from him and how many times I am  ??? just reading too much into things...........Any thoughts or comments on this??

Welcome,
and you're making quite a splash, baby_duck! I found this post on Visitors and thought it needed its own so I put it on Dreams, so now it's in 3 places--that's a first, I think!

Why doubt what is so real and meaningful and beautiful?  Eventually tho he'll need to move on and may need a retrieval to do it. Are you familiar with Bruce Moen's retrieval system? Every retrieval is an after death contact but not always with people we know. Dynamics of such a personal retrieval make it harder on both souls.(See Berserk's entries re: 'Janet' for example.)
You'll have your doubts eased if you read around these boards and see how many people are actually having similar experiences. Do you want to learn more about spiritual practices in general or more about how to deal with the effects of this one?

Hi, thanks for sharing your stories.  I like the part about Gary's phone call.  

I don't think you are just reading too much into things.  These are wondering experiences to pay attention to.  If you don't, then you will miss them and they may stop.  How did you feel after you did your releasing ceremony?  Do you feel him around you anymore?

Thank-you for your responses....it's such a relief to have an outlet to explore these spiritual experiences and to have the support of like minded people.....it's getting to the point where my friends just give me a blank stare when i bring up this topic.  I am interested in many aspects of spirituality....my boyfriends death was an alarm call......I was awoken. As soon as I researched one topic it lead to an interest in another aspect  and now gaining knowledge is a full blown passion.

While i was releasing Pat.....I did feel him near me.....but it was a "knowing" feeling. When he'd first passed on ......i felt the chills......tingling sensations....I felt as though his arms were around me. Now its a little bit more subtle.

Once I had read his diary outloud and spoke to him about his death.......I was sober....but I started to see smokiness above my bed.....a filmy mist....."blink and you miss it" type of thing......eventually the formation took the shape of a greyish tornado like formation.....it was just spinning here and there darting around. I had never had such an experience before......even when I'd lost my father a few years earlier........I felt his presence very intensly.....When i'd visited the psychic she had told me there was no need to invite him.....he was allready there. She explained to me that she saw his presence and had never seen anything like it in any other reading......his presence took on the form of (her exact words) " A little  tornado..".  That was more confrimation for me!

Occasionally late at night when I really focus my mind and speak with him ....I can see that mist again........

I talk to him in my mind......but it's usually a one way conversation. The psychic says after I       deal    with my grief and after lots of practise it will eventually be a two way conversation......cant wait for that moment. She says one trick is to ask yourself (telepathicly) if you are,   in fact, talking to yourself.....she claims you will get an awnser....This technique doesnt work so well for me......I feel that as soon as  i recieve a piece of information in my mind that couldnt have possibly have come from me or my subconciouse.....then I  will believe that I have made progress.....anybody have any techniques they have found effective when trying to communicate with the otherside?
