What the heck was this?

So I was driving to the gym last night, tis about a 25 minute drive, most of it along a pretty dark windy road.

I got to where there is a lookout, and I saw (because the road is lit a bit) that there was a black bird on the road. I couldn't slow down in time, and I couldn't swerve because I was going too fast, so I hit it.

Thing is, as soon as I hit it I heard a loud bird cry in my car - and then I felt as if I had been hit by something myself - my whole body just jolted and I swear my heart stopped beating for a second.

DH said that the bird would have already been dead (roadkill) because birds don't often come out of a night time, plus, they don't usually hang around on the road unless they are dead already. I didn't feel my car drive over it, but I'm guessing I must have - simply cos I couldn't swerve.

It freaked me out, and then on the way home from the gym, I kept on feeling like someone was in the car with me, and I was getting quite upset about it, because it just didn't feel right. I can't feel my guardian any more either since having kids - so I know it wasn't her, it just felt .. I dunno.. dangerous? Like I was in danger? It was a mild feeling until I hit the lookout again, and then from there all the way home I had chills, goosebumps, and just a feeling of ... well.. I was scared!!

What do you think it was?

Wow Hunny! Thats scary! I have no idea what it was - I hope some of the ladies on here will!

Hugs babe xox

Ooooohhh that gave me chills... hope someone has some answers, the only thing i can think of is somehow you are 'connected' with this bird or it's a representation of something and it's made you feel quite upset and uneasy.

Hunny I think this is one to be worried about, like a dark spirit.

Give your car a good clean inside and out and if you can avoid using that road then do so. I am picturing it as a windy Narrow road on the side of a hill? and I can see a broken barrier but not much else because it is a steep drop just over the barrier. If you do go on this road be extra cautious and keep an eye out. You might find someone just after an accident.

Maybe a warning, not to use that road?

Don't have a choice, its the only road into town.

Ali - yes it is a narrow windy road on the side of a hill.

Be really really careful hun. And make sure you always have your phone charged when you are on it. Maybe travel just under the speed limit and make sure you are alert.

Im still getting the creeps from this!!

The type of bird is holding a significance, a crow?

Dunno - it looked like a crow - but I'm not an expert on birds - I just say it was a crow cos it was black..lol

Dude it just gets weirder. I just walked up the street and nearly every single person I saw on the walk back - was wearing black. And they all had dogs. And most of the dogs were black.

This is really strange cos I hardly EVER see anyone walking into town...

I have no idea, but reading about it is giving me spine tingles... :(

Have you googled it? I just did and got nothing.

Haha nah I didn't google it - I don't think to google these things. Just come and pick brains here on BB instead.. LOL

Mmmm my initial feeling from it was that it was a dark energy. The fact that you responded the way you did etc etc.
I would smudge you, the car and send some light to the area each time you pass by. Remember negativity can only touch you if you permit it to. Send it love. Send it to the light. xxx

eeeek! :o how scary. Dont have much to say just be careful when driving!

Crows to me are not evil. They are actually protectors. So to me it would be a warning more than something dark.

I'm trying to PM you Arimeh but you're obviously too popular!

Yeah I wasnt scared cos of the crow - or whatever it was - moreso the energy in that area.

Inanna - will get DH to smudge me - I'm sure we still have a stick lying around...

Yes it wasn't the crow thing with me either. I love crows/ravens! It's more important how you "felt'. So if the feeling was ominous rather than curious I would personally go with that one. You are sensitive so you can pick up on this sort of thing. I know similar things have happened to me. Lots of love and get that sage out! :hug:

I'm not sure what it was, but it does sound dark (from your feelings, not the birds). As Innana said, I would smudge too, and send lots of love and light.

Crows (and ravens, same family) have been described to me as 'cleaners'. I had a lot hanging around my house while I was trying to sort out my money trouble. Now, my issues are sorted, and there are no ravens. In real life, they clean up things like road-kill and other dead things. It may have been trying to clean up the energy in that area.

I think you are an extraordinarily empathetic person, and I think you experienced the pain and the impact and the cry of the bird because that's who you are.

:o

eerrrr....WAS thinking of coming for a visit with the boys now that things have calmed down a bit ;) Have freaked myself out a tad by reading this...

Truth be known it's probably DH's parents lurking in the shadows cause they are pretty freaky :lol: :ROFL: aaah i crack myself up !
(sorry - really dont mean to make light of the situation - i realise this was a really yucky experience :hug: )


DH said that he has heard *rumours* that the lookout is haunted !

Totally dont want to turn you into a blithering i*iot but maybe thats where the dark energy comes from ??

Best of luck with this one Mel !

:hug:

i agree with this wholeheartedly. arm yourself with the ability to block this negative energy and protect yourself. don't allow it in.

:hug:

Thanks guys, I have DD2 whinging at me at the moment, so I can't reply yet - but will be back. xxxxx

Thats so fascinating to me, i've noticed quite a few in my front yard over the past week and sitting on the lounge i find myself just staring at them, DP has been constantly asking me what im looking at!

Sorry for the semi hijack :hide:

I'm heading off to the gym soon, so will have to update if anything happens tonight.

Wish me luck!

any updates mel? that sounds really scary!

Whoops forgot about this thread! No nothing but the usual chills I get driving past all the road kill (which there is a lot of) and where people have passed away from accidents. Nothing like that night though.
