I appreciate your help you guys. Most people wouldn't believe what I've been going through these past 8 months. I mean, I've had a demon for a room mate!!! This thing has a personality, it talks to me, jokes around & is very intelligent. At the same time it's a malevolent, creepy asshole that likes to try & push it's weight around & annoy me when I sleep. I don't know if it's learning new abilities because last week it started doing this thing where it gets close to me (usually when I'm trying to sleep) & I begin to hear this high pitched sound & feel this presence of energy & electricity on my skin & I started breaking out in hives & feeling very nauseous. I decided to go to a friend's & as soon as I left my apartment & crossed the street the hives stopped, I didn't feel any nausea & I was fine. I've seen this thing face to face & looked in it's eyes. It was able to scan my memory & I felt it in my head & could see my memories & thoughts playing like a movie reel going 100 MPH as it went through my mind. It tries to plant & feed off of my doubts & feelings. Lately (with months of practice out of sheer necessity) I've found how to block it from entering my mind & interjecting it's own thoughts. There's also been a few ties where it's come at me hard & I've displayed a level of steadfastness that it's earned to respect & a few times I made it afraid & actually felt it's fear (there seems to be some link it's established to where we can feel each other's emotions). These few times it got upset & finally had to admit I caused it to feel scared or inferior. Then it would regroup & come at me harder. In the beginning it sent 2 underlings to deal with me but they couldn't crack me so I guess this is their next demon up the chain in the hierarchy. It showed up the weekend before Christmas with a 4th demon that was very large in stature (the other 2 & the leader are short) & by this time the first 2 had very much learned to respect me & were kind of just hanging around my apartment even though I made many attempts to get rid of them. It even got to the point where they would sing along with music or watch things on YouTube with me & comment on them. I was able to send the other 3 away They actually told the leader that at first they wanted to hurt me but that they ended up liking me so they wouldn't hurt me & they left. The leader is the one I'm dealing with now. He seems to be like the deity Elegua in the pantheon of Santeria. Reason I say this is (besides my mom practicing it when I was in the womb) it told me it was from Africa (Santeria originates from Africa), it told me jokingly it was the Archangel Michael & that it speaks Spanish (it does). Several months later after talking to my mom & making the Santeria connection I did research & founf out Santeria's African origins, Elegua is associated with the Archangel Michael in Santeria & of course it speaks Spanish because my mom is from Colombia & demons can speak any language. It also has the voice of a child & Elegua appears as a child or old man. It is also a trickster which is consistent with Elegua's attribute. It also buzzes around like a large fly a lot of the time which has also been attributed to trickster gods such as Loki in Norse mythology. Anyway, what do you guys think? I mean there's so much more I could write a book.
