Okay, I have this conversation a lot, but I've found there is a pattern to which astrological signs believe in the supernatural, or have witnessed and experienced it for themselves. If you have seen, felt or heard anything supernatural and you believe that it's out there, post your sun and moon sign. If you don't believe in it, also post your sun and moon sign.
Also, if you have any stories, FEEL FREE TO POST THEM! I absolutely love love love reading about people's experience in this world~! (:

Isn't supernatural stuff related to the eighth house and twelfth house, mostly? I'd predict people connected to the supernatural probably have a lot of planets there... but I guess we'll have to see what answers we get here. I believe in supernatural stuff... don't really have any experience with it though. Even though I'm a Scorpio and therefore supposedly fascinated by the occult. I'm way too scared to actually try to communicate with the dead or anything like that. xD

Well I do believe in anything paranormal xD Just drawn to it for some reason. Erm. I have to say that I have had several experiences with spirits before, but it was mostly indirect. As a kid, I lived in a neighborhood that was in the middle of two graveyards so I grew up around a lot of graves and nightly wanderings with friends (Yeah I sort of had a twisted childhood) The house I lived in was haunted and I only felt the presence of the ghosts there.
One of the most memorable experiences I've had so far was when I was about 5 or 6, I was sleeping in my parent's bedroom (because I didn't have a room then) and I suddenly woke up after dreaming I was falling into a cliff but I was still in sleep paralysis (also known as cannot move at all because your body still thinks your sleeping) and I saw this hand grab my ankle and start pulling me to the edge of the bed. I was more panicking than terrified, the knowledge a ghost was there didn't bother me but I couldn't even scream and wake my parents up. I started trying to get out of sleep paralysis by thrashing around and breathing deeply, which eventually worked just before the hand fully took my body away from the bed. I inched away from the edge of the bed and just slept without my legs being straight. No one in my family knows this happened to me but I remember it like it was yesterday. To this day I still can't sleep with my legs straight, I have to either have them bent or close to my chest because I just cannot think of doing that again and have the experience repeated.

That's scary!

Holy toledo! That's awesome (scary I mean, totally scary) ! I can't believe you were actually touched by a spirit, that's pretty powerful stuff... But living between two graveyards makes a lot of sense, you were in their power zone. It always interests me when people have actual physical contact with spirits, because I haven't, (and don't really want to).

It is very rare that I feel the unnatural but there was this time around 2010 when I had to go to be out of town because of work. It is kinda far away from known city and i had to stay in a not so cozy room in a hotel by myself. (Boys are separate from girl auditors you know) Twin bedrooms are only available at that time and there I lay in one of the bed. I suddenly felt as if someone is above me. I can hardly breathe. I feel like tons of heavy items are put in my chest. I woke up then try to sleep again but to no avail whenever I lay my head in the pillow. I even called my boss who is miles away just to tell what was happening. I then decided to switch bed and put all my carrying bags and documents to the bed I was first got the feeling of heaviness. I only feel asleep for 2 hrs and had to still work the nest day. I asked to transfer to another room because I really got uncomfortable there. This was the worst. I know someone or something is there. It least I do not need to see "it".
I have a Taurus sun Cancer moon. I do not know if it has something related with that.

Interesting what Selene suggests about how placements in the 8th and 12th houses can affect your belief the paranormal - certainly from my perspective, I have a belief in the paranormal as well as 'higher' or 'greater' beings such as a benevolent God and a malevolent Devil that rule our universe - therefore I don't think that having my Aquarius Moon in the 8th house along with Cancer Fortune in the 12th house is a coincidence to that belief in that sense, along with having my Sun in Pisces. I think my placements have been a massive influence on how I have experienced the paranormal: certainly emotionally, I feel very sensitive to my surroundings and wherever I have gone in life, if there's been a lingering energy in a place/room that is either good or bad because a spirit or whatever is present, I have always picked up on those - even though I've only ever seen one spirit in my life! Not only that, I've had deja vus since I was very young - all of which have either come true or shown me snippets of the future that I have been able to change to making it go right rather than when it wrong while I was dreaming. I kid you not: these dreams I have are accurate down to the last word and breath that comes out of my mouth and the mouths of people who are in them too! As for my own experiences otherwise, there are two in particular that stand out to me: the first one was when a friend and I were visiting the ruins of an old prison (and I mean old - dating back before the 18th century here!) in her home town - we went into this particular room and the energy in there was not good. The air was cold, stifling and so unwelcoming that we refused to go in there! And then the other experience I had was after my step-mother's father had died of cancer in the Spring. I had been sat in my room by myself during the night time with my light on and the door open. Both my parents and my younger sister were downstairs, so there is no way I could've mistakened what I saw with seeing them passing by. After a moment of being so focused on whatever it was I was doing, I felt a change in the air - whatever that change was, I knew there was a presence there looking at me from the doorway. I looked up and in the blink of an eye before I fell off my chair in fright, I saw my step-mother's father stood in the doorway - as you can guess, by the time I got up and looked again, he had vanished, therefore making it impossible to verify that what I saw had been there other than my own eyes. Now I know that scientists and so forth have come up with studies and more that the mind can play tricks on you - whilst I believe that can happen to a degree, I don't believe for one moment that my mind had decided to fool me that night: admittedly I had not been thinking of him that night, rather I was doing my best to ignore my grief and my guilt - so what reason was there that my mind would have been able to play that on me? And how does one explain that I had felt a presence the moment before I looked up to see the face of someone who was dead? I also say with the greatest respect that whilst I do believe in the paranormal and that it's very interesting, what I sense and what I have seen, I wish I didn't have that - to walk into a room and feel any sort of energy is emotionally draining and disconcerting, and to then have very few people know or even understand what it's like is pretty undesirable, especially as those who don't aren't very empathetic or receptive to what I have and what I still experience.. And on another note, I do agree with @sargent Scorpio that there is strong correlation between those who deal with astrology and those who believe in the paranormal - it would certainly make sense, seeing as both topics dabble into the world of the celestial and the unknown!

I'm sort of like you, I lose it when I'm in a room with incredibly unsettling energy... But that experience is just... wow. Knowing it's there but not seeing it is probably one of the worst fears I have. Deja Vus were common for me as a kid and still now.

Cancer moon may have something to do with it, considering that it's a water sign in the moon and that deals with the subconscious and the psychic. It'd be insane if you had the moon in Pisces though.

I did think I had gone a little crazy at that stage - certainly surrounding his death, I felt not only a lot of sadness but a lot of guilt too (though that's another story for another day), plus also mentally and psychologically I wasn't in a very good state - so seeing someone who I knew was not of this world any longer made me fear my own mind more than fearing the apparition itself. Nowadays, I'm a lot better with how I deal with spiritual energies, but I only wish I had more people to talk to about it who I thought would understand what I had gone through, if not at least consider the idea in their heads and at listen. It's only unfortunate that a lot of my family don't really believe in the spirit world and the paranormal, so I felt quite alone on that front.

To start off, I have an Aquarius sun, Aries moon, and I feel it good to note that my Pluto is Sagittarius in the 12th house.
Being an empath, I have always been relatively attuned to energy, although I mostly pay attention to the energy attached to living people. I have been in several instances where I have visited places--friends houses, sheds, barns, even a burned down house in my woods--where I could feel energy. It felt different than the "living" energy but seemed active nonetheless, I could feel it and tell the emotions connected to it. When I was in friends houses, I was always skeptical and would ask them again and again if there had been someone in that room not too long before us, or spending a lot of time in that room that felt a certain way, and they always said that the emotion was not connected to anyone in the house. I mostly have not felt negative energies, except sadness, which is wretched to feel through a dead being. I have felt anger only once, and when I felt it I left immediately.
I also live on a farm, and although it's not particularly old, there are many recorded deaths in the area. The history behind our farmland is not the best it could be: There was a huge slave (and later, not slaves, but still black) community back in the day in that area, and where I live is their graveyards. Time passed, people moved, farmers bought the land, ripped out the gravestones and plowed up the fields to grow crops. We still grow crops on this land, and I have seen several very dark humanoid shapes walking through the field and standing in my barn. Once, I heard a man calling to someone in the barn. That particular instance freaked me out. Despite this visions, I have rarely felt emotional feelings of dead people on my land.
I should also mention something I find more interesting: As I said before, I live on a farm. I have dairy goats. Considering that our livestock tends not to live as long as we do and we have owned the place for fifty years, there have been countless goat deaths on our land. I wish I could also tell you the number of times I have seen a goat that I did not recognize, only to go through the photo albums and recognize the doe who died before I was born. I wish I could tell you the number of times the goats have reacted to unseen beings, nuzzling and fighting alike. I admit this might be wishful thinking (Although I, of course, like to believe that it is not) but my very first doe (that I owned, the rest of my family already owned particular goats)died very, young, at only 2 years old. I loved her a lot, and I don't think I have ever gotten over her death. During that two years she had suffered from many illnesses(please skip to the next paragraph if you don't want to know the illnesses, I feel it necessary to mention them) including some sort of messing up her back when she gave birth the first time (after that it had an unhealthy slope to it)and mastitis, which required us to remove half of her udder. She was a fierce but not very healthy doe at the time of her passing,and we weree very close, but her death came as a sudden surprise when a genetic glitch caused her to develop thick unseen fat around her liver. if it wasn't for that, she would probably have lived many more years relatively comfortably.
Because of these long term issues, she was given the freedom to wander throughout the barn (the goats have never run away, they stay where they know it is safe, or at least return to safety quickly)and she would often spend time at the very front door of the barn, just gazing outside of it. About once every two or three months since her death 7 years ago, I have seen her standing there, at the edge of the barn, gazing wistfully at the house my grandmother resides in. Wishful thinking perhaps, but it has happened so often that I cannot help but wonder.
I have had quote a few "supernatural" experiences, so I definitely feel like I believe in it.

Sorry I don't have any stories , although I do believe in spirts/ghosts, demonic activity. My father's side of the family is pretty receptive of the paranormal. Especially my uncle, now looking him up, I see he has a stellium in Taurus (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury and his North node) and Neptune in Scorpio, don't know his birth time unfortunately. But he has had a LOT of experiences. Perhaps my large water influences and my sun in the 12th house make me a believer. This is what I found on The Astrology Place

I do have Twelfth House, Neptune and Pluto in the Eighth House, maybe this has something to do with it. Am I right franka?

Courteous berth. I study something entirely newfangled and challenging on blogs I stumbleupon every day. It's forever helpful to interpret articles from other writers and practise something from early sites.
