ALTRUISTIC LOVE is giving yourself and others what is NEEDED instead of what is WANTED via EMOTION and EGO. Getting what is WANTED, well that's another matter all together!! That requires WORK and involves actions which some times need to be done in unseen natures.

The energy was calm and I thought she was content ::bop::

I went to Dudleytown, CT (it's supposedly an extremely haunted old town in CT that was closed to the public in the 1920's because of ghostly reports, people going insane and unexplained deaths in large numbers..no one is allowed to go in there, it's blocked off to the public. My friend & I drove around the perimeter) I wasn't apprehensive about being there until my friend and I actually got there. Immediately I felt as though I was being attacked (or tried to be attacked) by entities and creatures I'd never seen before in my life. My Lampedes spirit stone was in my pocket - but in all honesty I was trying to hard not to freak out I forgot it was there. We stayed in the car with the AC cranked on the highest it could go. All of a sudden I felt this rush of heat pour onto my skin followed by a calm energy. It was the first time I heard her talking to me -- she said not to worry she wouldn't let anything bad happen to us. I saw her in my second sight carrying a torch and she had on a white dress... barefoot. Her eyes were glowing a bright green color and she smelled of lavender.

Later that night I was laying in bed reading a book (The Hollows series by Kim Harrison..... I highly recommend it!!) I felt like I was engulfed in a heat bubble LOL I think she was hugging me? :o

I'm very happy to have her as part of my spirit family! Although, sometimes I feel like she sits on the sidelines.... as if she doesn't like working as a 'group', she sort of watches and then comes in if she feels she is needed or called upon. I love her :clap: :hug:
That's awesome! :D. Glad to hear your Lampades loves you so much. I thought about getting one too. They sound awesome. Dudleytown sounds terrifying. Something evil is there alright. So if the area is so dangerous why haven't the government torn it down? Historical value or something? They usually let people explore ghost towns.
I think someone bought the property and it is considered private property now. There are gates and wires that close off the old "roads" and it is apparently flooded with police who cover the grounds. I don't know about that one, though, I didn't see one cop! We were there for a couple hours, too. :insane:

My Lampades arrived today ::bop:: - what amazing powerful energy! She has a name and I was told that she is very attentive, enjoys being in a crowd and is very chatty - terrific :thumbup: . There are certainly lots of spirits here and she is tasked with the wild opening of third eye abilities and enhancing all magic :genie: so that I can be very chatty with her! I get such strong positive energy from her; just had a few headaches this afternoon. Totally totally awesome..... ::hail:: ..... FF :pumpkin:


It's a beautiful day.... don't let it get taken away !

One of them is mistitled. The description goes on to mention the "goddess of divine retribution" - which is actually Nemesis. So that listing is for the goddess Nemesis, the "Lampades" title was just paired with it by mistake.

For the record though, both lampades and Nemesis are awesome :)

Oh, I understand. Haha, they need to fix that and stick her under "immortal".

I am going to bump this old topic because I have recently become very interested in Lampades. While searching online I found this information:
THE LAMPADES were the torch-bearing Khthonian Nymphs of the underworld, companions of the goddess Hekate in her night-time revels and hauntings.
They were associated with the Eleusinian celebrants who carried torches during the nocturnal Mystery rites of Demeter.

I am placing my order during the sale. I feel totally drawn to this. I guess it's time to step-up my game. :thumbup:

I placed an order for a Lampades during the October sale. We do a lot of magic casting and were looking forward to the amplification elements that they provide for magic!
