Why do they want to be kept?

Spirits want the ability to communicate, share, and be part of something. Spirits do that by coming into our lives themselves or by being invoked or conjured. Once they have come to us they can stay of their own will, attach themselves to a person or vessel, or be bound temporarily or permanently to a person or vessel.

No one wants to think that after they have gone there will be no purpose or usefulness to their lives. Many have reported being "haunted" by loved ones or ancestors, these reports coming even from those who are not typical subscribers to the paranormal. This is no different in the aspect of spirits from our own realm & other realms; they too wish to be of purpose & assistance. Some are set on accomplishing help with a particular human whereas others roam unbound until there is a specific need for their guidance, support, help, friendship, companionship, etc.

They have the capability of being on our realm as well as the spiritual realm, and in the case of those who originated from the astral realm or spiritual realm some have the capability of walking all 3 planes. This accounts for why sometimes their presence is more strongly felt than others. They aren't always sitting around waiting for something to happen, they are capable of coming & going to and from you to their own realm on their own.

i remember reading in another thread that human companionship is a reason that spirits want to be with us. this is still difficult for me to accept...i sort of feel like we are "mere" humans now and don't spirits have way better and more exciting things to do in other realms? i guess it's difficult to see out of the yard on this one..

:peace: emzy

Point well taken, Athene. I always wondered the same thing.

LOL I know what you mean Athene. I find it hard to believe that watching me watch dishes while I chat at them all that fascinating. But I am so not complaining. I love having them.

You could think of it like this: we have our beautiful planet to discover and experience and yet we find ourselves wanting to astral travel or visit the other realms. Maybe they feel the same. They can always go and explore the astral or wherever but its not common for them to make and have constant human interaction. So basically, the road goes both ways, I think. It's probably just as rare for us to have a spirit or entity as a companion as it is for them to have us as companions.
