This guide is being written because I am getting rather sick of the lies going around out there, and I would like to help correct them. I do not claim though to have all the answers, and I just will share with you what I have found out to be true from my experiences and the experiences of those I know and trust.

    I have been interested in the paranormal since I was a child and would have strange dreams of things that would then happen. I invested lots of time in doing research, but I will admit that many books are lacking in important ways. Things happened in my life, and I ended up developing my psychic abilities more, and I got several free boosts as it were along the way. I will admit that a ring I have helped to open my energy. At the time I couldn’t feel energy as well or do much as well as I can now, and when I looked at the ring I felt its energy. So the first thing I want to say is you should just follow your heart when seeking to get more involved in these matters. This isn’t just about what to buy, but who to trust, what to believe in, what to do in life.

    Readings are good and very helpful, but you should take them as guidance and not as the final say. I just say this because I have been reading tarot for many years, and I hate to see people who seem to get dependant on them. It is your life, live it.

    I will now get into the main purpose of this article, information on paranormal items.

    First off, about DIJINN's. These spirits are real, they do exist. With that being said, I must say that most of the listings on ebay do not contain dijinns. I have infact never came across ones that did. (I can feel energy through pictures and text. . the theory on that is when you take a picture of someone/something, that it captures some of their energy in a sense. This energy can then be used to link to the person/item. Same with text, a very small amount of energy is captured in the text as that text is the will and expression of that person so carries their signature. Then, this small amount can be used to link back to the person) Anyways, Dijinn are very powerful spirits, and from what I have come to understand is that they were put into items because dealing with them head on is very dangerous.

    I know many of you may not believe me when I say I have encountered a Dijinn, but I will say it anyways because it is the truth. When I was just getting into things, a friend ended up with this strange ancient looking coin that was made of silver. He told me a weird story about how it appeared, and I thought it was a lie but I talked to him anyways since he was a friend. One day he tossed the thing at me and said he didn’t want anything to do with anything anymore, and he was seriously distressed. He didn’t talk to me for years afterwards. I ended up with his coin, and I just ignored it for a while. Then when I decided to check it out, I would hold it and feel like I was drunk.(later to find out that I felt so lightheaded because the creature in it was draining my energy severely).

    I then was more into things by that time, so I decided to try to scry the item to find out what exactly was going on. I relaxed and looked into it. It was like marble openings everywhere, and in the center was a creature standing their in the center on came circle with a rise. It was slowly turning its head to look at me, and just before its red eyes did lay on me I stopped looking. Naturally since I had no confidence in my abilities back then I thought I just made the entire thing up. I continued on with my life, I would carry it around because I was afraid of what would happen if I left it alone, if it would do something. I showed it to everyone I could find to try to find out what it was, and ended up with either people who had no idea, or people who wanted to take it from me.

    I didn’t like the idea of people trying to coheres me, and constantly wanting to hold it. I stopped showing it around for a year or so, and did some more mild work with it. Whenever I would try to work with it, it would just suck my energy some more. I could feel like it wanted something, but that it knew it wasn’t going to get it from me. That is probably why it was nice to some other people who I showed it to.

    Finally more time passed, and I showed it to a few other people. Two people identified it as a Dijinn, and one was trying to get it from me as well. I also got information on what the coin was, and it was a few hundred years old. It was suggested that it was melted down from a lamp after an invasion, and the spirit ended up still bound to the metal which was then transformed into a coin.

    I eventually talked more to one of the people who identified it (the other was trying to get it from me so I veered away from them) He basically said that it was draining my energy since it had no other use of me since I wouldn’t do what it wanted. What it wanted was for me to make a wish. Now, you may be saying that I am nuts to not have, but, you must remember, NOTHING IS FREE. And as it was explained to me, if you make a wish from a dijinn, then it is giving you something. That means that you have to pay for what you get (and what you get is also often not what you wanted, which makes sense considering that entity felt pretty evil) This means that they can take whatever they want, of their choosing, like your soul or free will. I know it doesn’t sound fair, but when you make an open ended agreement then you cannot deny their price once you have gotten what you asked for.

While this information didn’t come from me, but to me, it made sense with what my heart told me. I knew that item had something in it, and I knew whatever it was, it wasn’t good. Also the person who gave me a lot of that information had proven to me he has much skill. I cannot prove to you what he knows or who he is, I can just tell you why I believe.

    Very long story short, I could have sold the coin, as it was worth around 300 dollars. I could have given it to someone who wanted it, and watch them get themselves in deep crap, keep it (and constantly be worrying about what it was doing . . like messing with my other stones) or get rid of it. I chose to get rid of it before more people tried to steal it, and sadly it has corrupted many of my stones so I had to toss those too. So no, I am not selling that evil thing, and I hope that if anyone ever really does find anything like it they leave it the hell alone!

    Alas, it takes a very powerful magician to capture a Dijinn, because they are so strong. These ebay auctions do not have dijinns. And you should all be very happy about that because the Sunday school story of how they are nice is a LIE! They are out for themselves, they want to make business, trade things, and get the better deal.

    This is not to say that items on ebay are all fake. They often are not marketed honestly, but some do really have energetic things going on in them that make them interesting. So we can now get into that.

    Everything has energy. As such, some stones and items naturally will have more energy than other items. This energy can be varied, just like people. Some stones feel pleasant and nice, others feel cold and bad. While many stones only have basic energy properties, some stones have more advanced structures in them naturally that lend them to other functions. These stones can be a bit rarer I suppose, but they are around.

    There are also stones with personalities. This happens by one of two means. Either a spirit in the astral decides it wants more influence on this planet for whatever reason, or the stone naturally develops a more complex patterning which is similar to a personality (some have said this is impossible but when you consider the fact that stones are here for thousands of years and we are here for 100 often at best, this isn’t too weird of a thing). Anyways, a spirit that wants more influence or connection to this place will often attach a link to a rock, and in so doing the rock alters and develops a patterning similar to the spirit attached. Sometimes if you find these rocks, you can even talk to the actual spirit through the rock if you have that sort of skill, and the spirit cares.

This bit of information I found out myself when I was energetically reading items and found one that was responding to me. I was very shocked myself, and bought the stone. I then talked to several people I trust and they explained the entire spirit linking to rocks thing to me.

Now, with this said some stones are attached to rather nasty and rude spirits. These are well, to be avoided. If you ever see an item that feels sinister or isn’t right for you, even if it is cheap and pretty, follow your heart. These items, if they are advanced or mean enough, can mess with your energy in ways you will greatly regret when you eventually become weary to their tamperings (at the very least when you die and find out =/)

    Now on to fae items and items that supposedly have spirits in them besides dijinn. Yes, some of these items do end up having spirits in them. Even some items that you didn’t buy for that will occasionally have them. This is not usually a good matter I am afraid. Remember above when I was taking about stones naturally sometimes having complex energy structures in them? (or if they didn’t naturally have it, someone in the past could have altered it so it does) Anyways, some stones naturally hold spirits, or souls (or even a small bit of a soul sometimes). So then sometimes entities can end up trapped in a stone and they really don’t want to be their. I have had several of these, and had to have someone remove the spirits from their.

    I cannot emphasis this enough. Spirits are NOT toys. They are beings just like you and me. Some are smarter than us, some are dumber, but if they are a spirit, they have a soul, and unless you are a sadistic person you shouldn’t be seeking to capture them against their free will!

    Fae's and the fair folk, of which I have personally encountered(I can do a form of astral projection so have had encounters with them), are not nice little things fluttering around. Infact many of them don’t like people. Many of them know that people seek to have them captured in jars and items and they are infact rather furious about it. (If someone wanted to trap you in a jar wouldn’t you be?) I had a friend who was seeing sparks around her after a few months of trying to capture fae in bottles, and when I projected over to her I found fae basically attacking her in revenge.  So please people, don’t treat other beings like toys! Don’t try to buy souls or you will seem like you don’t have one of your own!

    Besides spirits that were captured in items by accident, or by magicians, their are also some spirits that choose to live in there. Some may be hiding from enemies, and so they basically bind themselves to a rock, seal the rock, and hid. I have 2 stones now that have souls in them that are hiding, one has tried to possess me so I avoid that one, the other is nice and rather friendly. I got them by chance, and I leave them be for the most part since that is their business. And no, I will not be selling them. The mean one, I plan to just toss somewhere so it can just be and leave me alone. The other, I plan to just leave in my room and if she wants to come out of the stone she will, if she doesn’t she stays. Her business basically.

If you ever did find a stone or item that had a soul in it, I would suggest you find out if it wants out and try to help it or take it to someone who can remove it. If it doesn’t want out, I would just leave it be. That is of course my decision and you can choose otherwise but I will just say if a spirit can bind itself to a rock it can probably has defensive plans if someone were to try to mess with it too much.

Now we get into another type of stone/item, the spellcasted type. This type can be legit. Some items people really have weaved a basic energy structure over so it will help often in what they say. Now, depending on the skill of the maker, this enchantment can last for a few months, a few days, or forever. It all depends on how deeply embedded into the item it is. I often call this enchanting, because instead of doing a spell, I will reach my energy into an item and work on altering it into the form I want to to be. I teach in a sense the energy of it how I want it to flow, what functions it is to do. I am not amazing at this but I can create basic energy changes in the items.

Besides this type, the only type of "being"(term used loosely here and you will see why) that it isnt a bad idea to get is the Servitor. This isn’t a REAL soul. It doesn’t have essence, it just is a program that acts similar to a being. These can be simplistic, just having an energy form and being able to make shields or defend someone, or it can be advanced enough to do other things. Since these aren’t real, and are basically advanced programs, while they can learn and change, they aren’t beings and so do not carry the repercussions of doing bad things to such. These beings are often sold attached to items, although they can be sent through the astral as well without having to have a physical component. I have several servitors that I created just attached to me instead of an item.I still suggest that you treat them with respect, as they can respond and alter based on things they learn. Infact, anything that helps you you should treat with some small form of respect at least is my way of thinking. Again such choices though are left up to you.

     While it is true that servitors are probably the most ethical thing to own in regards to beings, it is also true that they aren't as good as having a real soul or being on your side. It is hard to get programming perfect and a soul will naturally upkeep itself better. Regardless, servitors, spell casted items, enchanted items(aka altered by the person to perform some function), items linked to spirits that choose such, and items that naturally are complex or have interesting energy are the only ones I would suggest going after. Going after items with spirits that were forcefully trapped in them (weither it was successful or not) can lead to spirits not liking you seeing your intentions. Then as I explained about the Dijinn, are just bad! You really don't want to encounter one of those.

 I know many come into the paranormal for the thrill, but I have spent many nights unable to sleep because of all the things attacking me, or when I woke up I would be so drained I could barely move. Pissing off spirits is a bad idea. I personally didn't instigate most of the attacks I got (because many spirits like us can be rather self serving) but I can tell you it isn't fun. If you don't know a lot about these matters, I hope you will follow my advice and perhaps question what you feel and find what you feel is right.

I think that about covers most of the things I wanted to say. This is intensely long. I didn’t want it to be such but these matters are hard to explain just in general. I hope I haven’t lost anyone by being overly confusing. I imagine this will upset quite a few people since it paints things as being so much more complex and not as nice as the fairytales. I know the idea of getting an item that will give you assloads of power or influence in the world sounds nice but everything really does have a cost. I don’t say these things to deter you from trying to find interesting things or from exploring, just I suggest you be careful.

So alas I hope this helps you out. If you have any questions, you can feel free to contact me through ebay. I am not always an avid ebayer, but I will respond if/when I see mail, or if I got a lot of questions (which I am doubting as I am probably going to be labeled as being blasphemous for saying things aren’t all sweet and dandy) I will write a new guide.
