    True story: many years ago I worked at a futon store. The store manager was born and raised in Japan. We were working in the store together one afternoon when an attractive redheaded woman came in. I rushed to help her and spent about a half hour explaining futon and the different products we sold. She eventually left without buying anything. I commented to the manager how attractive she was and he told me he was sure she was a fox...he was deadly serious. He said the shape of her face and red hair tipped him off and he was certain she was up to no good. Yep...for realz.

      Yes the spirit world and human realm do merge at times in locations I'd refer at hotspots of spiritial activity caused by rifts throughout space time, when the spirits first arrived to creat the planet sometime later most of the rifts closed leaving few of them left the few left on this planet are located in japan eastern us near Maine and Massachusetts as well as New York state, the british isles, Australia, indochina and india

    • @fenrir5741
      @fenrir5741 2 года назад +10

      These locations are where spirits are located, and they live amongst humans who are non the wiser, I can prove that because when I grew up something in me activated and I gained a kind of omniscience as well as the ability to speak with animals and spirits through telepathy detect illusions and bypass them feel emotional auras as well as the fact since I was 7 years old I was completely convinced I wasn't human it just took about 13 years for my abilities to activate. Also I think I'm a wolf shapeshifter from the north Africa region in the term of this dimension however in my past life I grew up in a parallel dimension called havensky (heaven maybe)? where the spirits left to create the planet

    My dad grew up in the mountains of North Carolina. He saw fox fire 1x in his 93 years. He said it was so strange how the glowing orbs just float around. He and his friend were within 5ft of each other. It floated up to each of their faces, stayed still for 1/2 minute or so and then it floated on its way. The common idea is that it's methane bubbles from organic decay. It's very rare to see.

      I've seen the fox fire as well when I was young over the tree line where my old house was, she also knocked on my front door of the old house (I could see her snout through the house door window)
      and I gave her the approval to come in by tilting my head to the couch where I sleep,
      I also saw creatures with red eyes staring at me from the trees in the middle of the night when I was outside doing chores for the family it seems that I am probably not human considering all of the spirits I've seen all my life

      I confirmed I wasn't human when I had a wolf inside my head constantly talking but now well to say the least I blacked out one night woke up and I had my human mind merge with his, it also caused me to change most of my social media accounts as there's really no point having a disguise when Congress is going to reveal spiritial and physical "aliens in like a few months in 2023 I honestly expected 2024 from my initial guess but being omnipotent can cause one to see things in many timelines, however in this timeline or parallel universe Hillary Clinton convinces congress that aliens have traded with humanity since the 80s Besides why do you think we have a navy ship with a rail gun and a nuclear thermal isotope generator that runs forever with little maintenance, as well as prototype power armor and a american made ballistic pulse rifle prototype in test firing,
      Simply said humanity has been having alien tech exchanges since the 80s
      Also most of the tech these beings make they can just poof into existence, as in their dimension it's a real version of heaven as what you think happens And your thoughts can create. they can create animals, literally these beings they can make a literal firearm from a flower or stick of hickory oak they also have a theme around harnessing nature magic, by planting flowers around their house and enchanting the flowers with spiritial effects. Me and my sister did that over a few weeks, the house is basically a little slice of havensky/heaven in terms of the spiritual soothing effect as well as the demon barriers 2 red and purple flowers on each side of the house used much like that flower that repels deer from eating food
      Humans have impressed many beings and they proved themselves to survive past the most ludicrous end of world scenarios. These beings want humans to finally get the life they all deserved as the test of life has passed I believe covid was the last test, the war In Ukrainian is a NATO dispute over Russia refusing to accept these beings as Ukraine was the second to last nation to sign the treaty to reveal these aliens
      look at the news on October 23rd, that's when the Ukrainian war ends. You might see something unexplainable.
      If I remember correctly that news broadcast had a hijacking by the NWO that reveals these things not sure if it's in this timeline though I sometimes get those confused. If not then the debate with Congress will reveal it I'm sure.
      When I sleep I don't rem sleep anymore I feel that it might have to do with being a spirit.

    Fun Fact:
    Some said the myth of foxes loving fried tofu was because long ago Japanese farmers hated rats and mice and would fry them alive and throw them in the wild to feed foxes. However, when Buddhism was introduced to Japan and people practiced pacificism and vegetarianism, they switched to frying tofu instead.

    I once saw a supernatural fox. So one day my partner and I planned a week long camping trip and selected a forest at the midway point on the way and when we got there we immediately decided to change our plans and stay there.
    We set up camp and I did a personal ritual I often do which is rooted in native American spiritualism. Basically, I make a simple offering to the spirits of the forest asking for protection in return. It can be anything as long as its something the forest can use. This time it was a chickpea salad sandwich and water (there was a heavy drought here so the wildlife benefit from the food and water)
    I then went down the trail to fill our water bladders up and as I got close I saw a fox with fluffy orange fur that literally glowed like it was on fire. Like the orange of a sunset as if shining through the fur. It walked behind a tree and on the other side I instead saw a white cat walk by. It continued past some other trees and disappeared.
    That night in our tents I slept soundly, but my partner said she woke up to the sight of balls of light outside the tent. When I woke up there were bugs that got in the tent walking over us, which I later learned were ticks, but not a single one bit us. We were protected.
    We then moved to another part of the forest some 90 miles away and I neglected to do the blessing because I thought it was the same forest, but I guess the spirits were different because the following night we were bitten by ticks, but it was fine because there was a deep creek that we swam in and the fish actually nibbled the bugs off us.
    In any case, I strongly believe that on that first night I saw a fox spirit and my partner saw fox fire and my offerings were accepted and we were blessed with protection while we were in their territory.

    I once met a weird woman and she didn't smell quite like a human. Her smell reminded me of moist fur, raw meat being smoked, oranges, old blood, and smoke. It totally creeped me out. I could tell where she was without seeing nor hearing her. I would know when she was around a corner, or behind a door and if she got closer than 2m, it was so bad that I started to sneeze uncontrollably (it was the smoke-like component that irritated my nose). The exact composition of the smell kept changing, but I was very good at identifying her regardless and there were times where it got so bad that I could tell when she passed by after 1min in which direction she had went. I never experienced anything the like and actually tried to track her and was successful. This is not something I should be able to do as a human on a human. Yet, I even managed to find her in a Christmas market despite the strong smell of spiced wine, spiced food, and the sickening smell of Swiss fondue... Yes, I seriously was able to find my colleagues among thousands of visitors, because one of them smelled that weird and strong!
    There's one little detail I have left out thus far and to my shame, I was too dense to immediately recognize it for what it was, there was a pattern in the intensity and change of her scent. It repeated roughly every month...
    PS: it's a true story, but she probably was no Kitsune, but someone with a disease changing her smell and I probably got hyperosmia...

    Whoa, kitsune are some real freaks. I’m guessing not many people would actually be able to handle them in bed.

    I kinda wish I was a kitsune
    Foxes are cute and I’d totally pull a bunch of pranks
    But I’m a good person so they’d be perfectly innocent

    "When it's raining and the sun is out, they say a fox wedding is nearby."
    Interesting, as the same is told for "Tikbalang Weddings" in Filipino Folklore.

    If kitsune can transform into objects, maybe the quarter-pounder you think you’re eating is a kitsune disguise and Eva is real.
