[Music] yesterday upon the stair I met a man who wasn't there he wasn't there again today I wish I wish he'd go away have you ever seen a figure in your home of someone who wasn't there or shouldn't have been there someone who is personized but is absolutely black you cannot see any physical features it's just like a shadow of a person and yet super clear you can point to exactly where that person is if you've experienced that that is called a shadow person and I'm going to be talking about that today not from the
point of view of trying to prove that it's a real phenomenon simply to share the kind of experiences that people are having and then have us think about what these phenomena might actually mean now I'll be completely honest I didn't take this topic at all seriously until it started happening to my young son and like most parents when he reported that when he was walking through the house at night he could see Shadow People straight away I thought okay son I think you were dreaming or I think you were in that Lial place in between
being awake and asleep and you're seeing things that are not there however because of my research I knew not to dismiss what my son was telling me and to ask more questions and as my son spoke to me about these experiences I started noticing some features of what he was telling me first of all he was not always asleep or half asleep when he saw these figures and then he was very specific about where he saw them there's one that sits on the couch over there with his feet on the cushions and his behind on
the top of the couch there's one that always stands there and there's a slightly shorter one that stands over there well I tried walking through that room in different shades of Darkness to see if there was anything he might be seeing in a half awake state that he could interpret that way and I couldn't see anything and then one time he said one of those things was in the corridor today when I came down to your room so now it was somewhere else somewhere he'd never seen it before and then one time he said one
of those things was in my room last night and I was absolutely terrified and instead of saying son I think you were dreaming it was probably a nightmare I reassured him and said well nothing happen happened it didn't hurt you or anything no and he was somewhat reassured and then I said can you draw for me exactly what you saw and so he drew a shadow figure human shaped but wearing the traditional headdress of a shaman and when he drew that very precise image I thought oh my goodness that is very specific and where does
my young son know that image from it's the archetypal Germanic image jiri style and I know I've just shown my age by using that reference but to give you an idea of what he drew well these experiences continued Through The Years in different rooms in different houses at different ages and the pattern was the same that he would see these figures they would be looking at him but there was never any interaction there was never anything that happened that really gave him cause to be afraid now initially I was willing to write this off as
just one of those things that we experience as children that our brains are trying to interpret the world around us as we're growing up and it will fill in some gaps and make some mistakes from time to time except that my research path began intersecting with what my son was telling me now my studies are in the field of ancestral narratives and how they speak to our place in the cosmos our Origins as as a species and as I've studied indigenous story an ancient biblical story and narratives from cultures all around the world I've come
to the conclusion that you and I live in a world of far more company than we generally acknowledge and it's not difficult for me to believe that there may be entities around us that we don't perceive with our five physical senses now anyone who's shared their home with a cat or a dog will be familiar with this and you'll hear people say my dog round about the same time every evening will react as if a person has just walked through the room and it will follow them to the window growl a bit at them and
then follow them as they walk out the room again cats and dogs seem to perceive movement that we don't perceive sometimes they react as if it's a threat and sometimes it's more a puzzle what are you doing here kind of look and I think you'd be hardpressed to find a dog owner or cat owner who hasn't concluded that a cat's eyes and a dog's eyes and the frequency of their brain waves enables them to perceive entities that you and I don't perceive and as long as they don't interact with us or scare us or do
us any harm we're happy to live with that belief it doesn't bother us and Shadow People is that kind of of a phenomenon for many people through my work in coaching I've learned it's not just children who have this experience it's adults too and it's not just experiences at nighttime or after Dreaming or in that Lial space between being awake and asleep people see these entities in broad daylight and from time to time they might even attempt to capture them on camera a friend of mine who was an Aboriginal Australian when he goes walk about
says he can often see shadow people observing him from the forest and he has sent me images of what he has seen while out on walkabout he's not afraid of them he's not quite sure how to interpret them he's not sure what they are simply that they observe him as I've studied the text of the Bible the ancient Sumerian Babylonian Arcadian and Assyrian texts the stories of the Maya from out of Guatemala written up in the popol Vu as I've listened to Norse Legend Greek mythology African narratives I have come to the belief that we
are all observed by other species that we are all under observation that we have Cosmic neighbors very interested in Homo sapiens and they are observing us much in the same way that we observe ducks and we take them out of the wild we put a little tag on them so we can follow them around see what they do where they go what they eat because we want to understand Ducks I do believe that there are cosmic neighbors studying Us in exactly the same kind of way and I've come to wonder if some of these encounters
with shadow people might be an encounter with observers of that kind because 95% of the accounts of shadow people that I have heard in the counseling room have been that kind of experience they are there they're watching me they never do anything they make me feel very uncomfortable I find them super scary but they've never really interacted they've just observed and that seems to be part of a bigger pattern that I am finding in our ancestral story an ancestral experience if our ancestors experienced it then why shouldn't we but how do we interpret it what
are these shadow entities one Theory I'm considering is that what we perceive might not be a physical presence it might be the projection into our perceptual field of an entity in a parallel Dimension or who operates on a frequency that is visible to the eye of a dog or the eye of a cat but not visible to our eye I mean we only see this portion of the spectrum of radio waves a cat sees another Spectrum a dog sees another Spectrum could it be something like that and one of the reasons I think it might
be a shadow or a projection of a being in another dimension is because of something very surprising that I have heard in the coaching space now I've coached many people who've had Shadow People encounters and by total coincidence people around the world have told me the same hack that they have discovered for disrupting these appearances and it is the playing of a shortwave radio in their room now my dad used to listen to short Wave radio all the time because that was the only way he could listen to the BBC World Service and I've heard
of people who will have the radio on on shortwave and turn the volume right down so they can't hear anything but as long as they're doing that these apparitions are discontinued I find that fascinating and it just makes me wonder if there's something to this idea of shadow people being a projection that can be disrupted through disrupting the sound radio or energetic environment of the room yet there are aspects to this experience that suggest it is something other than an energetic phenomenon or a projection phenomenon that these beings might be something other than M Shadows
one of my clients experienced visitations from Shadow People for 10 years while he was living in the UK he then immigrated to another country and for the whole DEC deade he was living overseas no more visits from these disturbing Shadow People in his home when he returned to the UK he moved to a completely different part of the country to where he lived before but as soon as he was back in the UK the visitations of the shadow people started up again and it was only by using that shortwave radio hack he was able to
put a stop to it now I find that fascinating again it suggests observation and it may be observation of a location rather than a tagging of particular individuals now I said just now it might not be a pure projection or energetic phenomenon these could be physical entities that are appearing to people in a cloaked form now again just to clarify we're talking about a person-sized person but they are clo and they often look like they're wearing a black cloak and a hood but you cannot see their face there's no visible features it's just solid black
but I know two people who have had physical interactions with these entities Mike Ricker is the author of A Walk in the shadows a complete guide to shadow people and he tells the experience of being at home as a child and being visited by one of the these shadow people he perceived it in his room and then the shadow person was shocked that he had been noticed and then came closer to Mike took a hold of his arms and crossed them over his chest and then ran out the room and hid in a Cupboard because
he didn't want to be perceived by the other people in the house now that's an extraordinary experience for a number of reasons firstly there was a physical interaction and it was only later in a regression experience that Mike came to believe that the being had done that to try and comfort Mike because he could see Mike was scared he could see the shadow person was agitated because he didn't want to be seen and then he was so worried about being seen by the adults in the house that he hid in a Cupboard which again suggests
a physical presence now that might sound ridiculous and as a oneoff you might say there's an imaginative child or there's a child having a dream but when you hear more and more of these experiences by children and adults and you notice the patterns you begin listening a little differently I have a friend whose name we'll call him Jim when he was a young boy he was very ill his body was unable to absorb nutrients from his food and came to the point where his health was really failing he was placed in hospital in a Special
Care unit his health was so fragile that his mother was allowed to sleep in the adjacent room in the hospital and then one night his mother saw a black cloaked figure walk into the room with the babies and toddlers in it she thought she was seeing a nun in a black habit and the figure walked up to Jim's crib bent down and lifted him up and just held him for a few moments and lowered him back down when Jim's mom asked the staff they made very clear there are no nuns in Black habits who work
in this Hospital what was it she saw and why was she not more disturbed by what had happened the main reason she wasn't terrified is because of what happened next because from the very next next day jy's Health began to lift his body started absorbing nutrients and by the time I knew him he was a very fit and healthy 25-year-old young man completely healed from what had happened to him so there is an interaction with a before and an after a physical interaction where the child was lifted up and lowered back down it's possible that
the Shadow People phenomenon straddles more than one phenomenon it could be a projection it could be an energy based being it could be a being in a dimension out of phase with our own but occasionally it's in Phase sufficiently that we become aware of each other could be a physical entity cloaked but at this point no one who has wanted to talk to me in coaching about Shadow People has reported anything scarier than having one of these beings in front of them looking at them or observing them I haven't had any disturbing stories or stories
of harm committed by Shadow People now your experience might be different and I'd be very interested to get into conversation with you in the comments as to what you've experienced of these things did you experience them as a child have you experienced them as an adult at night in daytime in broad daylight what has your experience been and how do you interpret [Music] it Mike Ricker has reflected on his own experiences and suggests that it's possible that what we perceive is not the prime reality that if a person were to project their Consciousness to another
place to imaginatively be with someone that they love or to try and remote view someone that they love how would that be perceived by the other person would it be like a little orb in their room would it be a shadow person observing them that they would see and I think that's a very interesting question suggesting that what we experience is simply our end of an equation and what that experience is from the other end of the equation could be something quite different it could be an astral projection it could be remote viewing or it
could be a visitation from a person very much like us but who's cloaked because they don't want to frighten us unfortunately they're not always successful on that score so those are my thoughts on Shadow People to this point I wonder if some recent sightings in public places might be that kind of an experience rather than actual close encounters with physical beings but tell me what you think this is really a conversation starter and i' would love to meet you in the comments hear your experience and perhaps I'll learn something from the things you've experienced and
reflected on and maybe we'll come back to this topic another time meanwhile I want to give a quick plug for my book if you'll let me the invasion of Eden did our ancestors warn us about ET invasions and is history repeating itself in the 21st century it reflects on ancestral narratives and reflects on how they speak to everything that's happened in the last 12 months in the stou between the Pentagon and the US Congress surrounding the program and the secrecy veiling all that meanwhile if you want to talk to me about Shadow People come to
