Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ok so for the longest time I have felt as if I shared my body with something else. This something doesn't always have a definite form, but whenever my mind drifts off to it I see it (usually) as my own image with certain things changed like eye/hair color and subtle behavioral differences, but other times when my mind drifts to this entity it seems like I wear it almost like armor (think similar to Dante's devil trigger in the dmc series, but not exactly the same) so it fits over my body, but my face is unseen and so is any aspect of me being human besides the basic body structure.
Now before you guys come and tell me that I am imagining everything and that this is stupid Know that what I said above is only appearance. I can feel it's mind pressing against my own (especially as I write this) but when I try to communicate with it I feel it retreat into the depth of its/myself where there is no way for me to reach it w/o deep meditation. So what I would like from you guys is to help me understand it and what it could be. It it harmful to me and should I try to purge it? Or is it some awesome good thing that will help me be great in all I set out to do? I really don't know and only have a basic understanding of the occult so I need you more experienced people to help me. If you need more details feel free to ask I'll answer any questions I can to the best of my ability.

I'm new to the occult myself, or atleast studying it, anyway. But, from what you've said so far, I don't think it would be anything evil. That said, I can't really say for sure what it is. I've heard of some people being hosts for other entities, so that might be an avenue you might want to check out. I've also heard of people's souls splitting and creating other "personalities", but....this sounds like something external (outside of the looking like you thing), so my money isn't on that one, personally.

Another thing I thought of was an absorbed twin. There was a TV show several years ago called, Psi Factor and each episode was said to be based on a true account (to what degree I cannot say). But, anyway, there was this one episode where there was this teenager that was at summer camp and there had been a lot of weird psychic events going on around him, so the Psi team was there to investigate. This kid was thought to be autistic, because of his behaviours and things, but in the end, it turned out that he had an absorbed twin and the twin was either evil, or was just really angry that he didn't get the chance to be born and alive like his brother, so he would try to do things to harm people. The kid only appeared to be autistic, because he was focusing inward a lot so that he could keep his twin from hurting people. The psychic events were caused by his brother. I guess that's the only way he could effect anything, since he had no body. (things would float and stuff). So, *shrug* maybe he's your twin. ....Just a thought.

I'm trying to find some links on things I've suggested, but I'm having a hard time finding what I'm looking for. I post them later if I find something.

You can discuss this more with me if you want, in the forum or in PM's. Whichever. Although, I'm no expert.

Edit:

Walk-ins

Psi Factor: episode Tyler/Tim

I'm not 100% sure I should include this one, because what it says seems to be pretty applicable to most people (including me), but....it has to do with absorbed twins and twins that died in the womb in other ways, so I'll include it anyway. In any event, I think it helped me explain my family some. My mother and I fit with some of the things, but I don't think we have an absorbed twin. But my mother's mother had a twin that died, so maybe she had the actual symptoms and we possess some of that from learned behaviour or something. ???? Anyway, sorry for making this about me.....here's the link:

It seems to me you might have another entity in ya. Whether it's external and hiding in you, or whether it's an internal split, i don't know. It's probably something external though. Of all the splits i've heard of or encountered(being mine) they don't seem to hide. Actually they're rarely noticed to begin with.

I wouldn't purge it though. Yet. It might be harmless and using you as protection or something. Try meditation and see if you can get it to talk to you before you start deciding anything

hmmm yeah, i agree that it might just be another spirit.. but to have it inside you.. did you do anything before you felt something inside you? Or was it just out of nowhere? just curious.. >.<
It could be anything.. but an angel or demon inside a human is rare.. as we're just vessels to them.. and if one did enter you.. there has to be a reason/intention why. But spirits can randomly possess a human i think.. not sure why.. but if you were using magick.. it could be that? If not.. it might just be passing by and just got attached to your energy? And so, went inside you.. ?

Any news of anything happening?
