Does your child have an imaginary friend? Maybe their soulmate. :)

Children have a vivid imagination, but they also have less blockages between their intuition and their conciousness. This means that they may easily pick up tunes from the spirit that adults have learned to block. But before you get alarmed; your child is not talking to a dead person, they are very much alive and kicking – just not physically present. You know how they say “I’ll be with you in spirit”? Well, that’s what is happening, and this is nothing to be worried about unless the child is distressed about it themselves. Even if this person they are hanging out with was dead (or an adult) this should not be alarming if the child feels happy to have them around.

The way we work is that we have multiple levels of consciousness. Our awaken consciousness that we most function from, is only one. Our souls can function from many levels of consciousness, subconscious being one of those levels. Each consciousness may be aware of another level – or they may be completely unaware of what else is happening, so this friend of your child cannot necessarily tell them if they are dead or alive – but we can’t be killed so they are alive no matter what –  whether they are incarnated at the time is another matter.

During our lifetimes we make friends, natural as that. When we make a really good friend, we want to stay with them forever and forever – kid you not. 🙂 Your child must have made a friend like that. They may be any kind of friend; a lover or a blood brother or soul sister, I call them soulmates. I am a grown woman of 37 years, I have no diagnosed mental issues, but I have tons and tons of “imaginary friends” who make me laugh all the time when I’m out in the public. One of them just pretended to be hit by a car. A Spanish fellow, very charming. 😉 Your child is very lucky indeed to have a friend like this, but as our society is what it is, the one thing to teach them is that other people are scared of people they can’t see, and that’s why they should keep their imaginary friends hidden a bit, and explain to them that when in public you need to pretend  like they weren’t there. 🙂 Tell them that when they are older, they can bring those friends out and be more open about it, but for the time being this might be for the best.

I didn’t have imaginary friends when I grew up. I only felt Jesus was in the room with me at nights, which freaked me out a bit, but other than that I was friend-free. My imaginary friends joined me only after I started looking for them and they answered. I am a spiritual teacher now, and I teach about soulmates, so everything on this site is related to these kind of friends. In the future, your child will probably find this person, in the flesh, if they are not scared off from ever seeing them again. If we connect something negative (like only crazy people talk to invisible people) to anything – especially something we truly want, such as love or a friend, we can actively start to fear that we might find that person and we would be forced to be weird again. The way these connections work, the fact that the person would be in flesh doesn’t carry much weight if the souls are afraid of meeting again. So our soulmate avoids us because we are not ready for reunion, and that is something we do not want.

If this was my child, I would tell them that they may one day meet this person in flesh, but that it may take years, and they may be all grown up at the time, but until then it is perfectly okay to spend time and have fun with them in spirit. That is what telepathy is for – and that is what this is; simply telepathy with someone that isn’t in the room with them. This kind of telepathy is literally sharing thoughts, our brain is a receiver of our own thoughts, and sometimes we can decrypt the signal so that we receive other people’s thoughts as well. This is how psychics work, this is how animals communicate, this is the most natural way for us to keep in touch – what’s best, these calls may well be international but doesn’t cost you a dime. 😉

I would also consider twice about continued psychiatric attention on the matter, because it may create a trauma rather than fix it. If anyone is seeing a shrink regularly, that does point to a mental disorder, which is probably not the case and can be stigmatising. So I would only resort to psychiatric treatment in the case that the child is scared or continuously unhappy with their friend (but a fight with a friend is nothing to be concerned about – stuff happens). If this friend seems more like an enemy, this also doesn’t mean that this is not real. In this case we are talking of a past life connection of a relationship that got sour – real sour as they’re still at it. So now you might want to consult a psychic or a psychologist who understands reincarnation being a part of a person’s psychological makeup to figure out what the fight is about. Sadly, in this case we might be dealing with grown up issues so caution must be taken, and the psychic might want to deal with the “attachment” and you as parents rather than the child. Related to psychological concerns, if your child doesn’t make other friends, that’s quite understandable, because they KNOW what true friendship is, and they don’t want to exchange it for something less than that. Forcing them to do so will lower their expectations of what there is to be expected out of life, so you just tell them to wait for another friend like that – or that particular one, because even if you didn’t believe it, there is true love out there in many forms. 🙂

Oh and one last thing: Don’t start treating your kid like he or she was some sort of a miracle child, that’s not good for their development either. All that indigo child pressure people put on their children… Not good. He or she is what they are, let them tell you what it is – you don’t need to “develop” this, you need to allow it.
