Dark Shadow
My beautiful Filipina mom, God/dess bless and rest her soul, would tell me this story often. Even now, I remember bits and pieces of it from my own memory. The story goes, we were living in San Diego, California, in the early 1960’s, and my older sister and I shared a crib. (There’s 3 years difference in our ages.) The crib we slept in was wooden, painted white, and had a cute, little, cartoony lamb on the inside of the headboard. I was about one year old. She had just laid us down for a nap. All of sudden, she heard me screaming at the top of my lungs! It was unlike any cry she had heard me utter. It frightened her! She ran in and saw me screaming and pointing at a large, black, swirling mass of smoke! She said my screaming and pointing seemed to prevent it from getting closer to me, so it redirected its path towards my older sister, who seemed startled and in shock. She rushed quickly towards the crib to grab my sister. In despair, she watched as the black mass engulfed my sister, and went inside her, as if she was being forced to swallow it. My mom felt so helpless, and tried to get the smoke out of my sister, but to no avail. To her dismay, she immediately witnessed the effects on my sister’s personality. She changed. She was always sick; grumpy; never really happy.
My mom believed it was a curse put on her in the Philippines, when she broke a man’s heart by marrying my sister’s father and not him. She said it was witchcraft.
This story is one of my first recollections of an encounter with a demonic presence. They are real. I’ve battled and protected others from them all my life. I now know that my scream was a primal yell, which neutralizes lower frequency entities and vibrations.
Countless times my mom would take me to the Catholic Priest(s) to have me blessed, or to the hospital to see if I had something wrong with me. Whatever this is, it never went away. I “see”, which is why I call myself a Seer. I see pass the illusion of the exterior, to the heart of “All that IS.”
Over decades I have been asked where I was trained, certified, et cetera, because of my many nicknames like: “Fluffy the Vampire Slayer.” My answer is, “I was born this way.” I don’t slay vampires. I neutralize them. They are eternal, just as we are. So in short, I’m in the “catch and release” program.
In time, I learned, as did my family, it was never my imagination…
Many Blessings,
