Land and Property
This series looks at Soul Contracts. We will discuss if they exist, what they are, and what the traps and pitfalls may be. This entry discusses land and property, and how we own (or rather do not) own it. We also look at what do to if it’s haunted.
I’m going to be lazy here and do things the easy way (for me).
For those who have read my books, I am The Phoenix and The Empath Guidebook, you’ll know one of my techniques is to channel my Guides to get answers.
In this case, I am just going to channel my Higher Self. (Technically, it’s just still me, Geb, on a much higher level.)

Channeling
I wish to discuss Soul Contracts.
They come up a lot with people I help or deal with.
From my understanding, a Soul Contract is an agreement made on a Soul level that is binding.
You’ve certainly made more than enough of them. It’s how you get things done.
Apparently.
The number of Soul Contracts you have made with others, and put in place to override other contracts; are almost beyond count. Believe me when I tell you that it’s annoyed quite a few hostile and powerful parties.
Okay, so I’ve had a few yell at me for doing that. So, let’s look at the rules for making a Soul Contract, when you should make one, and how long they might last.
To put it simply, a Soul Contract is an agreement between two parties that transcends the physical or 3D world.
Normally, when you make a contract on Earth, it ends once the body you’re in dies or the terms have been fulfilled.
In essence, the contracts are being made between the physical bodies rather than the Souls that inhabit them.
This is a really important distinction, as Soul Contracts are between the Souls rather than the physical bodies.
The Astral world considers such contracts unimportant and they do not feel bound by them.
For example, the purchase of a piece of land has no relevance to Spirits as it does not fall under Universal Law.
Just because you have a piece of paper stating that you own a property does not make it so on a Universal level.
Claiming Ownership
So how would someone claim ownership of the land they live on?
They simply follow the laws set in place for the society they have chosen to be a part of. However, while those laws will protect (supposedly) you from being removed from your purchased land, it does not mean you own it on an Astral or Spiritual level.
The entire concept of laying claim to land that one did not create, or instill part of their own spiritual essence into, is considered laughable by the Denizens of the Astral.
If this world was in any kind of synch with Spirit, they would understand they are custodians of the land, and would work with it and The Gaia to maintain Harmony.
This is really important to understand for houses that have a resident Spirit or Ghost residing there.
Ghosts
At a friend’s place, I once stepped through a resident ghost and saw white mist for a second. My two friends, who were watching, both berated me for not apologizing to it.
Well, I guess the point of that story is that they had a resident ghost who had a right to their own space.
Many houses that are “haunted” are considered to be a problem for the humans living there.
Most ghosts will generally just carry on as normal, pretty much ignoring others.
However, there are also Spirits, Light and Dark, who may have made their own personal home and space in your home.
Such spirits may be very territorial and if they feel they are being intruded upon, they may become angered, and even go on a rampage.
Then chaos ensues and the battle for possession of the house or land begins.
It’s really not a wise idea to antagonize a Spirit as you never know what or who you are really dealing with.
Some of them are extremely powerful. Even if you happen to remove them, don’t be surprised if they return to plague you in another time, life or even when you pass on from your current life.
Spirits, especially negative ones, tend to have incredibly long memories and some of them have nothing better to do than to plot revenge or seek restitution.
Try to Negotiate
What do you suggest can be done?
Assuming it’s not too late, negotiate with the Spirit. Honour their space and do all you can to avoid entering into it.
Most situations can be salvaged in that manner.
Not all, mind you. Some entities can’t be reasoned with and a show of strength is the only thing they may respect.
Still, if you can avoid such situations to begin with, it will save a lot of trouble down the line.
Non-Binding
So, does this have anything to do with Soul Agreements?
In a sense, it’s a potential agreement between two Spirits with the purpose of creating an outcome that will benefit both.
This kind of agreement, though, is mostly informal. You agree to leave it alone and it agrees to leave you alone.
The difference is that you are not Soulbound to honour that agreement. If you break it, the only consequences are the wrath of an angry Being. Something that should be avoided as reputations in the Astral Realms do have a habit of spreading.
