Portals (Supernatural Highway)
What are paranormal portals?
A portal is an entry for spirits to roam our world and return to the Ether when they wish¹. Portals are believed to form in liminal spaces (voids or places in between) during twilight, midnight, and dawn¹. Some also think mirrors, windows, and doors can act as portals because they symbolize transitions and reflections²³⁴.
Portals can be natural or manufactured, permanent or temporary, positive or negative. Geologic or atmospheric events, such as earthquakes, storms, or eclipses¹, create some portals. Human activities, such as rituals, ceremonies, or experiments¹, make others. Some portals are stable and last for a long time, while others are unstable and close after a short period¹. Some portals allow only certain types of spirits to pass through, while others are open to all kinds of entities¹.
How to find paranormal portals?
The indicators below typically indicate the presence of a portal nearby. Here are some of them:
- You feel a sudden change in temperature, pressure, or humidity¹.
- You see orbs, flashes, shadows, or other anomalies in photos or videos¹.
- You hear voices, whispers, knocks, or other sounds without physical source¹.
- You smell scents out of place, such as flowers, smoke, or sulfur¹.
- You experience electrical or mechanical malfunctions, such as flickering lights, drained batteries, or broken devices¹.
- You have vivid dreams, visions, or astral projections that take you to another place or time¹.
- You encounter spirits, ghosts, or other beings communicating with you or manifest physically¹.
If you suspect a portal in your home or a location you visit, you can use one of the devices below.
- A pendulum is a weight attached to a string or chain that can swing freely. You can use it to ask the spirits yes or no questions or detect energy fields. To use a pendulum, hold it in your dominant hand and ask it to show you the direction for yes and no. Then, ask if a portal is nearby and where it is located. The pendulum will swing toward the portal or point to it¹.
- A compass: A compass is a device that shows the direction of magnetic north. You can use it to detect magnetic anomalies that can indicate the presence of a portal. Hold the compass in your hand and observe the needle. If the needle moves erratically, spins, or points in a different direction than usual, it means that there is a portal nearby.
- A digital recorder: A digital recorder is a device that can record sound. You can use it to capture electronic voice phenomena (EVPs), which are not audible to the human ear but can be heard on playback. To use a digital recorder, turn it on and ask questions to the spirits or invite them to speak. Then, play back the recording and listen for any responses or noises you did not hear before¹.
How to close paranormal portals?
If you find a portal causing trouble or attracting unwanted spirits, close it. However, closing a portal can be challenging and advisable. Some portals are meant to be open and serve a purpose, while others are too powerful or dangerous to tamper with. Therefore, you should always exercise caution and respect when dealing with portals. Here are some steps that you can follow to close a portal safely and effectively:
- Identify the type and source of the portal: Before you attempt to close a portal, you need to know what kind of portal it is and what caused it to open. Is it natural or manufactured? Is it permanent or temporary? Is it positive or negative? Is it related to a specific event, person, or object? Understanding the entity type will help you choose the best method and tools to close it¹.
- Cleanse and protect yourself and the area: Before you approach the portal, you must cleanse and protect yourself and the area from negative energies or entities. You can use sage, salt, crystals, or other items to purify the space and create a protective barrier. You can also wear or carry amulets, talismans, or symbols representing your faith or intention. You can also pray, meditate, or chant to raise your vibration and connect with your guides or angels¹.
- Close the portal with your intention and tools: Once you are ready, you can close the portal with your intention and tools. You can use your own words or a script to state your purpose and command the portal to close. You can also use symbols, gestures, or objects to seal the portal, such as drawing a cross, making a circle, or placing a mirror. You can also use sound, light, or fire to disrupt the portal, such as ringing a bell, shining a flashlight, or burning a candle¹.
- Confirm and thank: After you close the portal, you need to confirm that it is closed and thank the spirits or forces that helped you. You can use your tools again to check if the portal is gone or reduced. You can also ask for confirmation from your guides or angels. Then, you can express your gratitude and appreciation to them and the portal for the experience and the lessons. You can also leave an offering or a gift to the portal, such as a flower, a coin, or a crystal¹.
