These experiences, while unsettling, are generally brief and do not convey a negative message. They are thought to be more related to a need for contact and continuity than to a desire to frighten.
Reflections and visual impressions:
It also happens that loved ones think they see a familiar figure in a mirror, a window, or a screen. These fleeting visions often occur during moments of transition, when emotions are still raw.
In spiritual beliefs, the mirror is sometimes seen as a symbol of transition, a space where boundaries seem thinner. Here again, these moments are interpreted as farewells, not as ominous manifestations.
The Language of Touch and Sensations:
Some people, especially children, describe feeling a caress, a hug, or a reassuring presence. According to spiritual traditions, these sensations express a need for protection and love, like a final gesture to soothe pain and offer a comforting presence.
