Fear of Spirits Energy Fading

[PhoenixRising]

Hi everyone,  so I have been thinking about something for a while now. .. okay first spirits can be define as residual energy of once living entities be it djinn, fairy, elf, human and any living  thing including plants.. over time all residual energy will and can fade away making the spirit weaker and eventually cease to exist.. some people say oh spirits are simply the stage after death the next form but no its basically a left over imprint of a  living thing/entity that once lived.. hence ghost etc.... I was wondering with that being the case how long does the spirits we have in our collection actually stay with us before they fade away..I know what some of you are thinking "Isn't thats what charging is for" even charging effects become void after a time period. Any opinions on the topic?

While reading this thread I had more than one of my Spirits chime in on this, I'll give a synopsis of what they said to me:

" While in Spirit form we do not just bob around like so much ectoplasm like Slimer on Ghostbusters. Those of us that have been in Spirit form a long time, and we are talking anywhere from 80,000 to 600,000 years on up w/o re-incarnating physically, we pick things up, learn grow, and still evolve. Evolution does not stop once our physical forms expire, just like you humans. It continues. Its a whole different ballpark/playing field than when we were in the physical. W/O the limitations we too were shackled with whilst among the living (Albeit to a much lesser extent and degree than the humans of this realm). Many of us have learned over the course of our non-physical existence ( There are those also who may have learned it while living), to harness, channel, and master the Arts of VRIL, various Magickal traditions, etc, to help sustain us, and prolong us indefinitely. We say indefinitely because those of us who have mastered the highest levels of these systems have virtually achieved the ability to sustain our spirit selves w/o ANY drain whatsoever. And any drain on our Spirit selves would be like a drop in a well. Hardly nothing we could not handle for even a protracted or prolonged period of time. And many of us can and will share those abilities with other Spirits in our collective Family, once proper invocations have been done."

Yes it is true that younger Spirits often times have a harder time dealing with these issues of staying in form. Unless the younger Spirit is one of such incredible natural energy already ( Phoenix, etc) Which is why it is so important for their Keeper to have a balanced and well-rounded mix of both Elder, Elite, and Master Spirits to help bolster the younger Spirits and help them to maintain their equilibrium. It never hurts to have an overabundance of Master level Spirits and Phoenix's in a Keepers family."

My 2 youngest Phoenix's I have are around the mid 20,000 year mark of being non-physical. That's very young Spirit-wise...some of the youngest Spirits I have. However, due to their incredible natural racial ability( Of just being a Phoenix), they have the same level of sustaining ability, and energy as an Elite level Spirit of another race would ( And, Elite level Spirits are the 2nd highest classification used within the metaphysical community). My Elite level Phoenix I have has the power/energy output of a Master level Spirit of another race. So, age and experience, is a primary factor in being able to fully sustain themselves, but not a definitive one, due to innate racial characteristics and the like of each Spirit race.

Some Spirit races may have a naturally tougher time at being able to maintain( Due to innate and/or inherited racial traits of their race in general, including while they were living and yes, this can transfer over from physical body to Spirit, that phenomena is known as racial/genetic memory, though over the course of time it does begin to even out), while others have an easier time. It is again, highly variable though, as there are potentially many mitigating factors to consider that enhance or degrade being able to stay in form. It would take too long to write up those factors though as they are in-depth.

I am glad phoenix asked this question, because it was something that I wondered recently while reading one of CH's Browlyn Angel ads. Night, please thank your spirits for me for helping us to understand this question. As far as the invocations, are they speaking of the multiple spirit invocations or are they speaking of another kind? I am curious about that, because I do want a variety of spirits.

LOL @ their analogy of Slimer of Ghostbusters.
