Q: Can spirits or souls talk to you? Kelly, Cork, Ireland A: Spirits or souls communicate differently than humans, but also try to use your mental facilities for language that is common to us for communication. They often communicate when we are sleeping - during dreams, put spontaneous thoughts in our heads while we are awake (which you don’t have to follow or even acknowledge), and in some cases speak directly in voice as if they are clearly ‘whispering in your ear.’  Many people equate spirit talk to their own thoughts. Not be confused with mental illness or psychological episodes, spirits often speak to us without words, giving us a feeling of well being and of their presence around us. Q: How can you tell if your house is haunted?   Joshua H., Houston , TX A: Hauntings are most evident when there are sounds or noises, objects moved or moving, and a sense of radical changes in temperature in a room or places within the house without human intervention or activity. People sometimes sense or see spirits in a room or place, even though they cannot personally identify them. When these things occur, it is best to call a professional medium to communicate with the spirit(s) and help them move on to a better place of growing.
