Spirit

**Related To:** | WitchesHumans

A **Spirit** is the nonphysical part of a person regarded as a person's true self and as capable of surviving physical death or separation.

## Description

The essences or souls of the deceased. When a person dies, their souls are collected by the Angel of Death and taken to the afterlife. However, not all become spirits as some choose to be reincarnated, thus starting a new life after death.

Some spirits remain on earth when they are unable to move on. Usually this occurs when a person has unfinished business in life, such as being unable to accept their death or when their death was so quick that they still believe themselves to be alive. Spirits may also remain on earth until justice had been done or when they seek avenge themselves. Evil spirits may remain on earth to avoid purgatory. Now, depending on their desire to continue living and their level of manifestation, some may become visible and have the ability to interact in the physical world.

Spirits who can not move on remain on earth becoming earth bound. They do not move on when they have unfinished business with the living or do not want to move on. After moving on spirits go to the other side also known as the afterlife.

Since ghosts are non-corporeal, they usually cannot physically interact with the environment, only being able to communicate with the living, either through dreams or through possession. Now, ghosts that do in fact have a strong enough identity may interact with their environment in a variety of ways. Continually, ghosts that appear to the living retain the same physical consequences, or injuries, they sustained upon their deaths. The personalities of spirits are parallel to that of when they were alive, and as such, can cycle through different stages of sadness, anger, pain, distress, etc., depending on the manner in which they manifest.

The only people who can always see spirits are Mediums. Witches can only see spirits when they summon them or the spirit lets them.
