The fact that it is happening about the same time each occurance makes me think it may be a train, underground subway or construction that could be responsible. The cause may not even be happening close to you as frequencies create resonance that can travel distances before acheiving the right phase to vibrate. A bass drum wavelength is about 30 foot long when you look at its wavelength.
But then again I had a full apparition of a turkish woman standing over my bed and looking down at me while working there in 1989. When I tried to speak to her she backed away from me but didn't leave. The fact that you say stop and it stops leads me to believe you have a guest. What little I know about spirits/ghosts are that some are playful, some sexual, and some can be pretty violent.
Hope I didn't confuse you more..
Much Love,
Carlton

Hi Leah,

My take on this is that there is someone/thing that has a sexual and/or emotional interest in you and is approaching you in the astral, with an intensity sufficient to begin materialization.

If you are curious and want to explore, then constructively engage it and get a better idea of what/who it is, and what it wants and decide whether you want it around or not.

If you don't want to be bothered then tell it that it is not welcome this is your space, to go away and to not come back.
In progressive order, establish personal shields before you sleep which you have specified are to be tuned to screen and keep away this particular energy signature and which are to last until you get up the next morning. You can put a circle up around your bed or around the entire room before going to sleep. You can do an LBRP or other magickal working to try to sever the connection with this energy. You can create a protection servitor whose charge is to protect you and run interference with that particular energy while you sleep. If familiar with LBRP/LIRP type workings you can appeal to the elemental energies to help shield you from this energy... very effective is to ask the elemental archangels to protect you. In particular, not too many things are going to want to mess with Michael and his fiery sword.

Depending on the persistence of the entity/energy you should get rid of it after one night or up to a week or two of taking precautions. It will get the idea and go away.

Hope some of these suggestions help.

I was intrigued to hear your story because it's similar to an experience I had as a young child. Over the course of a week I became increasingly afraid of my closet even though I didn't usually have that fear.

On the eventful night I had the distinct impression of a presence so I hid under the covers. Then to my horror the middle of my bed slowly raised about 8 inches for a few seconds then sank back down. Needless to say I laid there for a good long time unable to move but eventually had to use the bathroom so I bolted out of my room with a blanket and slept on the couch.

The next morning my mother asked why I was there and thought my experience was just a bad dream. Two nights later she changed her mind when she was startled awake to see a glowing old woman with long fingers reaching for her boyfriend. She woke him up and he let out an incredible adrenaline-fueled roar that dispersed the apparition. After that we never had any more encounters with her, I wonder if it was the scream or something else...

yeah, my bed shakes every so often. Not at the place I currently live, because that place is such a haven, but growing up, my bed at home would shake/tremor/shudder, and sometimes when I am in a strange bed, it will do the same. I've gotten used to it. My experience of it is usually while I'm just about to fall asleep, or when I'm reading in bed. I'm always conscious when it happens.

Aloha Leah,

In the Hawaiian world this is considered a haunting by an Obake ! It could be person related or house related !!! You maybe an open portal of light that attracts something for the unseen world, or you maybe of interest to something that has already dwelt there....

This is nothing to fool around with in my opinion...sometimes it stops on its own, other times it intensefies...There is a book out called the Obake Stories...its about these kind of things happening to ordinary people...its about people in Hawaii from ancient times to modern times and how they deal with these things !!!

If you know a shaman elder who can bless your space and find out what happend in the apartment that might have ripped open the portals or left residue that your either reacting too, or the spiritual realm is reacting too....

I didn't mean to scare you with this kind of talk, but my antenna went up when I read your story...I have done several house clearings in my day, and have dealth with a few ghostly hauntings...as strange as this may sound your story..there are hundreds of them documented on file all over the world !!! Its Real don't let anyone tell you differently !!! If you have any other questions please contact me personally...you may need a honoponopono ceremony....a walk down the aka cords of the ancestors....Blessings Marza

Hello Leah,
Do you practice shamanic journeying? If so you could simply ask your helpers for advice/information about this.
peace, Julie

"Has anyone heard of this before?"

It sounds like you're living quite close to a strike-slip fault and what you felt were the plates slipping.

I have had this experience and others as I am waking up around this time of night.
(the sounds of doors slamming, popping sounds, the room filled with smoke or pink mist,
the sensation of someone sitting at the bottom of my bed or on top of me ...etc..)
I just read an interesting theory that sometimes with certain people who astrally project during dream time, that they have a hard time re-entering into the physical and it listed
the expierences I mentioned plus the bed shaking as a symptom of a hard re-entry.
Interesting?!? If it is the same time of waking every night this could be a possibility.

Leah,

'i have experienced shaking during the spaces in between waking and sleep, both before and after lengthy rest. In 'my experience, if the shaking recurs, it is because 'i didn't get the message 'i was supposed to embrace. 'i always trust that this experience is a message from 'my soul, or the soul of the universe.

About 6 years ago 'i woke at about 5:30 in the morning, about to board a plane for San Francisco. 'i was awakened by a dream of the earth quaking. It shook so much that a chunk the size of two or three city blocks broke off and it felt as though 'i was spinning away into space. 'i felt it so deeply in 'my body. At first 'i felt fear, then 'i just realized as 'i often do, that 'i should just roll with it.

This was occuring in a semi-waking state so the amount of actual time the experience lasted wasn't known to 'me, it was seemingly timeless, but felt like at least a couple of minutes. 'i waited for some dreaded impact, some big bang to come, but instead 'i woke. 'My heart was beating rapidly.

'i immediately went to the mirror in 'my bathroom and looked 'myself in the eye. 'i had to make sure that 'my intuition wasn't telling 'me not to get on the plane 'i was supposed to board an hour later. The answer wasn't clear what the source of the quake was, but 'i felt strongly that it had nothing to do with the flight and 'i would safely return from 'my trip up north.

As it turned out, that trip was 'one of the most meaningful trips 'i've ever taken in 'my entire life. The earth quaking and breaking off in 'my dream indicated a very real situation in which several people had aligned to cause 'me harm and hurt 'my reputation with several organizations that 'i had been working with. Money had changed hands behind 'my back to set 'me up to get 'me off of a multi-million dollar business transaction and to hurt 'my reputation.

When 'i looked in the mirror, 'i asked 'myself if everything would work out okay in the end. The answer 'i came up with was that it surely would 'be just fine and 'my physical body would remain safe. As it turns out, that dream experience was quite telling and it certainly served as a perfect representation of what was to occur beginning that very day, and lasting for a couple of years.

Fortunately, 'my abundance comes from spirit and soul, not from 'my bank account or the limited opinions of others. While others may have thought 'they were taking advantage of 'me, 'my soul sent 'me the message that 'i would remain safe, and the dream served as an important indicator of what was to evolve.

'My suggestion to 'you is to embrace the shaking, and try not to let go. Hold on for as long as 'you can until 'you land securely in a conscious place where both love and the belief that 'you are on the right path settle into 'your consciousness. When that happens, the recurring dream will fall away.

Shaking, quaking, smoke, and fire can represent big changes ahead. The smoke will clear when 'you trust the message.

*.love,


j

What do spirits want when they are attracted to human light?

Interesting, I wrote this post almost exactly 2 years ago. I had just begun really processing something that has come to competion recently in my life.
The bed shaking happened a few more times after that. Once or twice when I moved out of Boston and to my sweet little country home in ct. I thought it was just the subway. Or traffic going by. But when it happened here that killed that story.
I believe it has happened one more time- around the time my father passed away this last feb.But, i could have been hoping for some sort of contact from him when I was in my parents house.
I find it so interesting the post re-surfaced again. Kelly responded it and another person sent me a message.
So the shaking eventually stopped. I accepted it as either astral projections or someone trying to send a message I wasn't listening to. I have been trying to shift things in my life and listen in new ways.
With the passing of my father I have been going through transitions since this time. It makes sense to me why in my life my bed was shaking. I was shaking up my world. A psychic friend told me she thought it was my father's uncle trying to speak to me. It may be.I don't know as it is not a way I communicate-yet.
I have since tried to stay open and inviting. Though being empathic i have also set up protection to keep my energies safe. I put crystals around areas in my room and smudge quite often. I have done shamanic journeying, The answers I get are to trust that I am safe and guides are near to protect when needed.
I appreciate all your comments , sharings and suggestions. I did not realise the post continued until a week or so ago.
It would be an interesting campfire story. ;-)

AHH!! i have the same problem. Its been a happening off and on for couple years. But more so lately. It started in 06 then went away and i kinda forgot about it until the past year. Maybe because, i was looking up supernatural things, and watching ghost hunters out of boredom. Now its gotten to the point where if feel almost a pressure? on the back of my head, and the bed feels like its moving. Then sometimes a violent bed shake. I thought maybe possibly night tremors. But when I'm awake and all this is going....idk.. I'v done the whole...saying out load "go away" thing..but it still continues. I'm a mixture of freaked out..too...pissed off right now. ITs always when i really want to just sleep.

This happened to me once. I was living in my grandparents house, strange things happened from the first day I moved in. Lights would turn themselves on and off, until I would just unplug them. The microwave would beep and a 9 would be on the display, beep another 9 , beep another 9 faster and faster until the display read 9's all the way across. Every night when I went to bed I would feel someone lay on top of me but they were laying down across the bed horizontally. All these things kept happening and then one night the bed started shaking. I must admit, I got really scared, I'm not sure why this freaked me out with the other stuff not so much. So I was at a mind body festival, and this guy walks up to me and tells me that I am surrounded by spirits(lots) and that they were waiting for me to help them to pass over because for some reason they were all stuck in the house. He directed me to a woman who told me to do a ceremony with a white candle, facing each direction in each room, and to ask the universe or higher powers to send these folks where they need to be. And then let the candle burn completely out. I had to do this 3 times before everyone moved on. My own grandmother was the last to go. 2 weeks later, I found the house of my dreams and moved out. The house is still in the family and no more events. That being said, I had no idea what I was doing, and I would advise you to speak with someone who is more knowledgeable . I suspect that someone is trying to communicate with you, but you deserve to have a peaceful nights sleep. Good luck. Firemoonchild

Hi Leah-Love. The only time I had my bed shake was because I came into contact with a woman who held some animosity towards me because of my affiliations. I believe she may have been practicing black magic and think the bed was shaking because of an evil spirit. I did prayers of protection and cleaved my psychic connection with her. I didn't happen again. Do you know anyone that may be practicing black magic? If you do, you can imagine your hand becoming a flaming sword and cut the connection to that person that comes from below your belly button area. It is a serious thing to do and shouldn't be taken lightly. If done correctly, you will no longer be able to reach out to them anymore or them to you. Aloha, kahuna Lamaku.
