What is the thinning veil?
The term “veil” refers to the metaphysical barrier between the world of the living and the world of the dead. That veil thins as Halloween — or the pagan holiday of Samhain — approaches. However, the idea of the veil is not exclusive to paganism, coined and practiced by the Celts of northern Europe. In Greek mythology, the thinning veil was represented by Persephone’s departure into the underworld. In Greek and Roman mythology, there is a literal gateway to the world of the dead that is only accessible at this time of year.
During Samhain, people wore masks to trick the spirits into thinking they were among the undead, so they wouldn’t mind when the thinning veil opened and the spirits roamed the land.
Today the same thinning of the veil still occurs. Likewise, there have always been people who are more sensitive than others to the thinning veil, or to whom it may always seem thin. When affected by the thinning veil, you may feel anxious, nervous, or watched. You can also receive messages in dreams or through the thoughts that come to your mind. If you’re wondering how to deal with this spiritual shift, here are several ways you can deal with it, depending on whether you want to move closer or further away from the thinning veil.
Connect to the other side
If you want to embrace the thinning of the veil and try to communicate with the spirits around you, here are five ways to do it.
Light a candle
One of the easiest ways to interact with the thinning veil is to intentionally light a candle, perhaps on an altar. A candle can act as a beacon for spirits, and an altar creates a kind of spiritual space, especially if you include some photos and memorabilia of the people you want to contact.
Talk to your ancestors
Saying the names of the people you want to contact can bring them closer to you. This may feel strange at first, especially if you’ve never tried it before. But the more you sign up, the easier it is for others to sign up in return. It’s good to invite people by giving their names, reminding them of a shared memory, or asking questions. Even if you can’t hear the answer, you might be surprised at what you feel. You may notice some activity around you, such as B. a noise or a drop in temperature. This may indicate that your spirit guides are nearby and strong enough to connect with you.
Spend time in a cemetery
Most cemeteries are open to the public, and as long as you’re kind and respectful, this can be a great place to connect with the other side. Humans are bound to personal items from beyond the veil, including their tombstone. While spirits are of course free to roam, check in with loved ones, and visit places that have meant a lot to them in life, their burial site is always a powerful place, especially when you’re working with spirits you haven’t contacted before. If you want to feel closer to the spirit world during the lifting of the veil, visiting a cemetery is a great way to do so.
Use divination tools
There are many divination tools that even beginners can use. If tarot seems too complicated for you, you can also try a pendulum or a dowsing rod. Both are tools that will give you yes or no answers, and they are capable of detecting anomalies in both the underground and the spirit realm. However, if you want a more advanced form of communication, tarot is best. There is no risk of ghosts coming through the thinning veil as it is not a portal. It is a tool to translate the language of the universe that is already everywhere. In contrast, Spirit Boards or Oujia Boards can be portals and should not be used by people who do not know how to protect and shield themselves from the unknown.
Search for messages
As you feel the thinning veil, signs will appear in both your dreams and the waking world. Look for recurring patterns, animals, symbols, and motifs. You may even notice messages. For example, if you come across talks about traveling abroad more often than usual, while your dreams are also showing you visions of traveling abroad, it could be a sign from the Universe. When you start seeing patterns, write them down. Maybe ghosts are trying to reach you? Often messages from the universe are delivered personally by your spirit guides.
Step back from the thinning veil
If you want to distance yourself from the spirits that are more present at this time of year, here are two options.
Try protection meditation
There are many ways to protect yourself from spiritual and psychic energies when you are uncomfortable with the thinning veil. By doing personal research and consulting with a psychic medium, you can find simple meditations for positivity and protection, as well as more powerful rituals. This is an easy way to up your protection game if the thinning veil makes you feel vulnerable.
Do a house cleaning
If you want to remove negative energy from a room, it’s best to do it with respect, not anger. If there are ghosts in your house, try to remember that they are people too. Asking for space, boundaries, and peaceful coexistence is fine, but asking for ghosts to leave the house might make things a little worse. If you want to use tools for cleaning, you can try burning herbs or incense sticks. Palo Santo wood and sweet grass are excellent and sustainable alternatives to white sage. Salt water, bells, and crystals can also be used for purification, especially for those sensitive to smoke.
Find peace with the thinning veil
Whether you want to connect with the spirit realm or feel you need some distance from the thinning veil, acknowledging that spirits are nearby can help you ease some of your fear. Setting boundaries is for the living and the dead alike. Humans at all stages of life and death are still human after all, and they want to be both respected and connected to. This is the season to focus on these things, when the veil is thin and messages can easily penetrate.
