Hi, I?m hoping someone can help me, or help explain to me what happened..
I was dreaming terrible dreams, about completely awful and horrifying things I had had the dream before and I knew what was going to happen to the person before it happened, and after he died, I woke up.
I then see an ant carrying a folded piece of paper (I?m guessing a curse) near my head. I grab my phone to shine the light and nothing is there.
I shut the light off and reach for my dog, it?s early morning so I can see her outline. She sits straight up and stares at an entity I cannot see..
I cast a quick protection spell around us, knowing something in the room just caused these dreams.. and then- out of instinct: I released this spiritual, noxious black gas commanding it to suffocate all that would harm me.
My eyes are open, and as the gas moves out from my heart center and reaches the protective barrier I placed.. sigils appear and burn blue in the air. (About 15 of them) like my instinctual black gas that I had released literally burned them.
What the absolute heck happened?
I?ve never heard of a spirit gas. And what about the ant carrying a nightmare spell? And what about the sigils waiting for my shield to go down? Or were they my sigils at the face of my shield being activated?
