What is a spirit?
Hey guys!
So this I’ve been wondering for myself. After my first encounter with a spirit I thought, ‘but wait! isn’t that called a ghost instead of a spirit?’
Well yes and no. A ghost is a spirit and a spirit is not necessarily a ghost. Let me explain.
When you hear about a story about a haunted mansion or a haunting in general or anything of the sorts you immediatly think that it’s about a ghost. That is what we think a ghost should be and what a ghost is.
But when we talk a spirit we can also be talking about the same ghost. Let me explain.
A spirit is an energy being who doesn’t have an psysical body. A ghost is the same thing, it’s made out of energy and does not have an psysical body anymore. A ghost is a person who died and is still on earth, a ghost is a spirit but not all spirits are ghosts.
A spirit can be lots of things, you have spirits like ghosts, but also fairies. Fairies are another type of spirits, but fairies aren’t ghosts for the very reason why most people can’t see or hear them, they weren’t ‘people’. They haven’t lived as humans and died becomming ghosts. But they are energy beings with a perpose, tending to earth’s nature.
But there are more kinds of spirits, angels are spirits. They are energy beings who aren’t from human origin with a perpose, in this case, helping us with our journey on earth.
I hope you now know what the difference between a ghost and a spirit is and why we don’t call all spirits ghosts.
Erica out!
