Follow The Silver Thread

The Aided teach that no spirit lingers in the mortal world without cause. Every ghost is bound by invisible threads to the people, places and possessions that shaped its life. Though unseen by mortal eyes, these bonds shine brightly to those who know where to look.

Through quiet prayer, offerings to the ancestors and careful contemplation of the spirit’s nature, the practitioner follows one of these hidden threads back to its source. The path may lead to a treasured possession, a forgotten home, an unmarked grave, or another place of profound significance to the deceased. More experienced practitioners learn to distinguish stronger bonds from weaker ones, allowing them to seek the fetters most closely tied to the spirit’s unfinished business.
