Losing someone we love is never easy. The grief that follows can last weeks, months, or even years, leaving a void that feels impossible to fill. In that pain, many people say they still sense the spirit of their loved one nearby, either through a voice, a fleeting vision, or a feeling that they’re present in some way.
These are moments that can bring comfort to many people who find it hard to overcome the loss.
Some people often describe what’s known as “after-death communication.” It is the unexpected signs, messages, or feelings that seem to come directly from those who have passed. However, not many are willing to talk about this because they fear other won’t understand them.
The truth is that these experiences are more common than we might think, and they don’t have to be seen as strange or unnatural. Instead, they can be understood as part of the way we, as human beings, process loss and try to stay connected with those we love.
Telling the difference between the comforting presence of a loved one and the disturbing influence of other forces can provide clarity, reassurance, and inner peace.
1. The Energy They Carry
The presence of the spirit of a loved one brings peace and comfort, almost like a warm hug that serves as a reminder you are not alone.
Other energies may bring discomfort like sudden chills or an uneasy feeling. If the experience leaves you feeling disturbed rather than comforted, it may not be the spirit and energy of your deceased loved one.
2. The Nature of the Signs
When someone we love reaches out, it’s usually through subtle, personal signs such as a familiar scent, a meaningful song, or objects tied to them slightly moving. Other forces on the other hand bring random or chaotic disturbances: strange noises, odd shadows, or unexplained movements.
3. The Emotional Impact
One of the clearest differences of whether you have been visited or feel the presence of a loved one or another force is how you feel afterwards.
Encounters with the spirit of a loved one you lost often feel comforting and bring relief, gratitude, or joy.
If the presence feels scary, it’s likely not from someone who cared for you because true loved ones rarely inspire fear.
4. Timing and Context
The timing is also a sign. Your loved ones may appear in the form of energy at anniversaries, birthdays, holidays, or other dates of great significance to you and them.
When you feel the energy of a spirit not connected to you, the timing is usually disruptive rather than supportive.
5. How to Respond
If you feel that your loved one is reaching out, respond by lighting a candle, a prayer, or speaking from the heart. These gestures can deepen the connection and provide comfort.
But if you sense a presence that makes you feel anxious, set boundaries and protect yourself through positive affirmations, prayer, or cleansing rituals that create a peaceful space.
6. Trusting Your Intuition
The clearest distinction often comes from within. Your intuition can serve as a guide. If a presence feels warm, familiar, and loving, it’s likely your loved one, but if it brings confusion, fear, or negativity, it may be a different kind of energy.
