I am picking up the thoughts of someone (or something), or it is trying to communicate with me. Unfortunately I am not very skilled in psychic communication, nor do I have particularly strong abilities, and so I have no idea who it is or what they want. All I pick up is random words, ideas, and glimpses of emotion or impulse, but nothing that's coherant.

My very modest divinatory skills with a pendulum told me that yes, it is male (which I had sensed), and no, it is NOT a Spirit Guide. Most startlingly, when I asked the question of whether he was a part of me or separate, the immediate response was to have the glass candle-holder crack in half, which I take as very blunt "separate"!

I have received no answer or even glimmer of recognition when I try to speak to him directly. Most days there is zero contact at all.

What can I do to find out more about this being? Is there something I can do to make myself more receptive to picking up these thoughts or messages? Will I have more luck simply continuing to interpret with divinatory means than trying for direct contact?
