Is it possible to be a channel for a spirit without realizing it?

Answer 1

yes it is
and when you dont know what is happening , then it is hard to control
and control is vital if you are wishing to work with it
so perhaps visit a spiritualist church , where they may be able to help you develop or at least gain control .... most of them run development groups
but most children are natural little mediums , and I am sure none of them realise what spirit is.... but spirit see a light that is on and wish to come to that light
you could be a light that they see :o)

Answer 2

Oh, yes. And it is also dangerous. This is one of the reasons why people should be very cautious about using Ouija boards and other occult practices without guidance. The stray spirit you pick up is likely to be malevolent, since benevolent ones don't push you around like that.

You need to know how to do the necessary purifications and protections before you get involved with spiritualism. Never call up what you cannot put down. And never, NEVER perform a rite when you do not know its purpose.

Defense Against the Dark Arts is an important subject in Hogwarts for a reason.

Answer 3

Well seeing as you're a channel for your own spirit, I'd have to say that this was indeed possible.

Answer 4

i think it would be most likely you weren't aware of it like. Like a seer or possesed person at a seance doesn't know it happened.
