Have you ever noticed how many paranormal phenomena seem to occur in rural areas, far from the hustle and bustle of city life? If you're a Bigfoot believer like me, you've probably seen your fair share of videos and reports of Sasquatch sightings in remote forests and mountains. But why is this the case? Why do these mysterious events seem to happen more frequently in rural places?
I recently came across a video on YouTube that explores this very question. The video, posted by the channel Myths, Mysteries, and Majesty, delves into the reasons why rural areas might be hotspots for paranormal activity.
One theory that the video presents is that rural areas are more transient and less populated than urban areas. This means that there are fewer distractions and points of interest, allowing people to be more in tune with their surroundings and the natural rhythm of the land. Additionally, rural areas are often home to marginal or liminal spaces – areas that are on the margins of society and don't receive much attention. These spaces might be more conducive to paranormal activity because they are less influenced by human activity and more connected to the natural world.
Another interesting theory that the video discusses is the idea of cosmic geography. This concept suggests that certain geographical places are associated with spiritual beings and that these beings play a role in spiritual warfare. The video uses the example of the Prince of Persia from the book of Daniel in the Bible, who is associated with the geographical place of Persia and hinders the angel that comes to visit Daniel. This idea of spiritual beings being tied to certain geographical places is intriguing and might help explain why rural areas are more prone to paranormal phenomena.
The video also touches on the idea that rural areas, particularly in the Appalachian region, have a rich history of folklore and spiritual practices. The Scots-Irish settlers who settled in the Appalachian Mountains brought with them their own folklore and religious beliefs, which are still practiced in the region today. Additionally, the native population of the area, the Shawnee and Cherokee, referred to Appalachia as the "Dark and Bloody Ground" and believed that it was a place of spiritual significance.
Overall, the video presents some fascinating theories about why paranormal phenomena seem to happen more frequently in rural areas. While we may not have all the answers, it's always interesting to explore these questions and consider the possible explanations. If you're a Bigfoot believer or just interested in the paranormal, I highly recommend checking out the video for yourself and seeing what you think.
