My parents and grandmother and great aunts were all members of a Spiritist cult group. They were all true believers. They always getting messages from their spirit guides .
Message delivery usually involved going to a meeting and paying a donation to the medium who had the ability to talk to the dead.
Growing up around that I was encouraged to try to see ghosts and auras. And from a young age, I began to see orbs, auras, ghosts that might or might not be spirit guides, hear voices, seeing fiery writing in the air, and have full OBEs. It was a Carlos Castaneda experience.
I was seeing and hearing the same things as the mediums. Like the mediums, i was prone to frequent headaches . I was just as successful as the mediums at locating hidden treasure and prediction of lotto numbers--which was never. When i told my parents i was never believed. I guess the fact that I wasn't charging them large donations ruined my credibilty.
Often when i saw some of the phenomena, I would get a headache--not an ordinary headache but a headache that had me hiding in A dark room and curling up on the floor.
My parents didn't believe there was any headache that praying couldn’t cure, so I was never treated until I moved away. I was diagnosed with migraines in a foreign hospital years later
It turned out that what I was experiencing was migraine auras. They occur maybe an hour before the headaches start . They also occur without the head ache just as often.
