Answer
“Yes, that makes sense; your dream guides are giving you good advice. Energy can accumulate in any room and feel heavy, stuck or stagnant — especially if you’re sensitive. In fact, spirits are drawn to bathrooms due to the running water; water is a conductor, and it can feed their energy.

“Sage or palo santo can be used for smudging. Sage is a dried herb; palo santo a sacred wood. Both can be burned — the smoke, combined with your intention or prayer, is effective at clearing energies. Palo santo has a lighter, sweeter scent if you are sensitive to smells (sage can smell a little like marijuana). Look on eBay or Etsy.

“Salt can be placed in a little bowl in a room for cleansing. Or you can sprinkle it in the corners of a room. Discard the salt after you feel it has had the desired effect. Alternatively, you can mix salt with water in a bottle and spray the room. Refer to the following website for more details: http://www.spooksinvestigations.com/cleansing-you-and-your-house.html

“I generally recommend clearing your home once every six months. But I encourage you to be the barometer: If the energy feels thick in your home, or you notice the presence of new spirit energies, then it’s a sign to re-smudge your space.”

“My Husband Heard Voices …”

Question:
“I wanted to share the news of our ‘house guests.’ A couple weeks ago, my son had a rough day, and that night I decided to sleep with him in his bed. My husband passed by the bedroom door and, after hearing conversation in the room, came in to see how we were and say we should get some sleep. The next morning he told me both our son and I were clearly sleeping when he walked in, but he knows for certain there was some chatting going on in there! I guess I wasn’t the only one watching over him.”

Answer:
“Your husband must have been quite surprised! But it wasn’t ghosts he overheard. It was spirit guides belonging to you and your son. They were discussing your unique connection with your son, and how your relationship is expanding both on the physical plane and also within the spiritual realm. Your sensitivity and his have been ‘turned up,’ so to speak. You’re probably seeing subtle changes in his behavior, like maybe he’s a little more emotional lately. Maybe you’ve noted the same sensitivity in yourself, even had a couple of headaches or another sign. It’s nothing to worry about; there’s just a lot going on energetically, right now. Big shifts of energy within the larger universal flow. Your spirit guides, who are always with you, watching over you and guiding you, are excited for what the great shift in energy will mean for you and your son. We all will play a part in it, each of us with a unique role. There are big changes coming for all of us as we progress toward a more enlightened way of living, globally and universally. I hope I haven’t overwhelmed you, but just wanted to reassure you that it’s not a new haunting!”
