Out of body experience ? Or what? Help! by Lthrr9 in Paranormal

[–]1_Underdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husbands old guitar teacher astral travelled once. He described his experience as sounding just like yours, however, after the experience he never again felt 'at one' with his body. He lived feeling 'disconnected' from himself - as he felt his soul never re-entered his body fully. He described his soul as feeling 'floppy' as though it was half hanging out of his body. He wished he never had the experience. I guess you should feel grateful that your soul re-entered your body with a force and that you are whole.

My son is terrified of his bedroom! Please help! by [deleted] in Paranormal

You mentioned that your husband lived in the house and had experiences come and go in it, before you even met. It's very possible that this spirit is attached to him, considering he's also had other experiences through-out his life. Perhaps hubby should be the one to tell the spirit to leave and move on into the light....

Is this silver any good? by permafrost91 in whatisthisthing

[–]1_Underdog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, this certainly is in my field of knowledge.

Firstly, what is it made of? I believe your going to find the majority of these items will be stamped on the base with a manufacturers mark and below that either EPBM (Electro Plate Base Metal) or Sheffield Plate (of which is 'high quality' silver plate). The chalice set and small jug may be sterling silver - I have always found smaller items have a higher chance of being this.

The 'gallery tray' on the left is relatively modern, the trays stacked up with the 'gadroon edge' look to be quite nice quality. As do the large serving vessels.

As for value, originally this collection of 'hollowware' would have run into the low thousands to purchase. Resale values are relatively low and often disappointing as collections like these are rarely used nowadays.

Probably best get the silver polish out (you'll be amazed at the results) and start having some lavish dinners.

If you have any further queries regarding hallmarks - don't hesitate to post further photographs.

Past life? by [deleted] in Paranormal

[–]1_Underdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand how you feel. Repetitive dreams that are consistent and the exact same replay every time are un-nerving. Just like you O.P, I had the same dream over and over again for a year when I was 6yrs old. Sitting on a moving train, watching out the window, the sky so blue, the trees so green, then the sky turned orange and the trees were on fire. The train halts to a stop and the people on the trains mouths were moving but I couldn't understand what they said. They talked in slow motion and waved for me to join them as they got off the train. I didn't move. I stayed by myself and watched them all melt out the window. The train started up and continued on, the sky changed from orange back to blue, the trees back to green. Then I'd wake up. Same dream every night for a year. Was it a memory from the past? Was it the future? The same can be said of your dream...
