Back in 2012, I posted a blog about urns, ashes and spirit visitors, and I still get a lot of questions from that blog, so I'm revisiting and adding to it.
ASHES CAN ACT AS A MAGNET TO SPIRIT- People who have urns in their homes with ashes of people or pets may get spiritual visitors.
Ghosts are earth-bound and usually stuck to the places they choose to
dwell.Spirits (human or pets) who cross over into the light, however,
can come back to earth and visit their loved ones any time they have
something to say. Having their ashes in the house gives the spirits
something to be drawn to.
WHY? The physical body had energy when we were alive. When we or our pets pass, most of the energy couples with our memories and personalities and makes the choice to stay Earth -bound as a ghost, or cross into the light/heaven/paradise/valhalla as a spirit. HOWEVER, because ashes are physical remains, they would still contain residual energy. that is, some leftover energy.
HOW DOES RESIDUAL ENERGY ATTRACT A SPIRIT? - Residual energy in ashes can act as a "beacon" to spirit whenever someone goes near them with love in their heart for that person or pet that passed. Love is a positive emotional energy than can "charge" the energy in the ashes and draw a spirit. The spirit would only come to check on the living, and remind them that they are still with the living person from time to time.
WHAT IS RESIDUAL ENERGY? - Just as if
a human left residual energy on an object (like a clock or a door) when
they were alive, if it had some emotional meaning to them. Ashes also
have that "thumbprint" of emotional energy, and spirits are also drawn
to them.
PERSONAL EXPERIENCES- One woman I met told me that she has he ashes of her
cat, and has sensed that cat several times. My own puppy that passed has
come back to me many times, and I have his ashes in the house. Years
ago, a roommate had ashes of his mother in the house and she appeared in
the house who appeared as a dark shadow in the apartment. So, urns
containing ashes can enable spirits to come back from time to time and
visit. Just watch for them!
