The Voice of the Dead: Connecting with Spirits through Music

Connecting with spirits through music : The Universal Language

Do you think it’s possible to connect to spirits? Could music act as a voice for the dead? Maybe in playing music from their time period or something they loved to listen to when they were alive you can open some kind of a door way. Or If we “are energy” could it be the electrical currents that the music is traveling through that gives them the perfect way to connect to us?

Many Native American traditions use music to create energy/power/magic as part of connecting with spirits. Even certain churches used to sing to draw in the Holy Spirit and some people believe you can connect to a Spirit Guide using music. Music is often even used to connect to your inner spirit to carry you to enlightenment. And has been used in paranormal experiments to connect with the dead.

The five senses are important to the physical but the ability for souls to move material items is incredible. Some people are more in tune with what they hear and see. I think not only is it possible to connect through music but I have done this myself during cremation ash infusions. While infusing cremation ashes into glass art. Music is something I use during the process to feel connected to the person I am honoring. I think it could draw them to us and I have experienced this “musical” phenomenon twice now.

Songs come on the radio that have meaning. Radios turn on by themselves. Playlists playing I never touched with songs that you know deep in your soul were like words from the departed. These things are not coincidences. Maybe music is the universal language and with it you can open some doorway.

Native American Indians believed you could squint your eyes and watch the souls leave the body. This “energy” is traveling to the spirit world. The soul is energy at it’s essence. We are all made from this. Energy never dies, it simply transforms. Energy that is here- there and everywhere. We are always in connection with this energy unknowingly. Why couldn’t it be that “energy” can connect to this world with music being the perfect conduit to speak for the dead?
