šŸ”®Are Your Thoughts Really Yours? The Hidden Influence of Thought-Entities

Today I want to talk about something interesting, about the power of thoughts and... what if our thoughts are not entirely our own? What if some of them aren’t just random brain chatter but… entities?


What if these entities are speaking to us, influencing our minds and lives in ways we can’t fully comprehend? And more importantly what does it mean for us to begin discerning the different voices that pass through our mental space?


We’re used to thinking of thoughts as private things. They come from inside us or so we believe. They help us navigate our days, make decisions, reflect on what’s good, what’s bad, what’s next. But what if our thoughts are not just ours? What if they’re shaped, or even inserted, by something outside of us? What if thoughts are entities, energies or presences with agendas, personalities, even intentions?

This isn’t a new idea. In fact, it’s ancient. Many shamanic traditions believe thoughts can be spirit messengers. In some religious systems, thoughts are considered divine inspiration, or temptation. Socrates spoke of a daimonion, an inner voice that guided his actions not exactly a part of him, but not fully separate either.


Carl Jung spoke of the collective unconscious, a shared realm filled with archetypes that we all somehow tap into. Could those archetypes be universal thought-forms entities that live in the background, stepping into our minds at key moments?


Even in metaphysical and occult circles, we hear about tulpas which are thought-forms created through focus and emotion. If fed with enough energy, these forms can become autonomous, developing their own presence and influence. While it might sound like fiction, many practitioners claim to have experienced this firsthand.


Now, if you’ve ever performed an evocation, you know what it means to concentrate deeply, to focus your will and attention to connect with something beyond the veil. That act of intense focus becomes a kind of an invitation. And while we might expect some grand physical manifestation, what often happens instead is more subtle: strange thoughts, emotional shifts, or an internal voice that feels completely alien. Something enters your mind space. Something not you.


That’s the moment most people miss, because they expect fireworks, when what really happens is more like a quiet knock on the inner door.


This is where discernment comes in. The ability to pause and ask: Is this really me thinking this? Or is it something else?Ā Sometimes the answer is obvious a thought that goes against your values, your intuition, your essence. Other times it’s much trickier, because some of these entities, if that’s what they are, know exactly how to speak in your tone, how to mirror your language, how to slide in unnoticed.


I’ve had moments like that where a thought came in like lightning, sharp and foreign, and I knew in my bones it didn’t come from me. Not from my conscious mind, not even from the dark corners of my subconscious. It was something other.Ā And whether you call that spirit contact, psychic influence, or mental noise it's real. We’ve all felt it, but we rarely name it.


So how do we deal with this? Not with fear. But with awareness. By practicing mindfulness, we begin to recognize what’s ours and what isn’t. By asking questions, Does this thought align with me? we begin filtering. By trusting our intuition, that deep internal compass, we learn to feel when something is off. We can also turn to grounding rituals, nature, prayer, meditation, whatever aligns with us spiritually. These aren’t just calming practices, they're shields. Filters. Ways to keep your mind space clear.


And if you’ve ever felt that certain thoughts arrive in clusters, almost like they belong to a presence rather than a mood, you might already be sensing this. Maybe you’ve walked into a room and suddenly your thoughts felt… different. Or maybe you've been working with spirits and noticed your mental narrative shift in a way that didn’t feel like "you." It’s subtle, but it’s real.


To me, this idea, that thoughts might be visitors as much as they are creations, isn’t threatening. It’s fascinating. It means we’re more connected than we think. That consciousness might be shared, influenced, dynamic.


That part of the path of self-mastery is not just controlling what we think, but understanding where our thoughts come from.


So, the next time something strange passes through your mind, a flash of anger, a sudden burst of brilliance, a voice that feels both you and not you, pause. Ask yourself who’s really speaking.


That’s it for today’s exploration. Until next time, stay curious, stay grounded, and never stop questioning the nature of your own mind.
