Why Do I Wake Up the Same Time Every Night?
You roll over in bed and force your eyes open, only to read the blurry red lights of the digital clock “3:15.”
Wikipedia refers to the witching hour this way; “In European folklore, the Witching Hour is the time when supernatural creatures such as witches, demons and ghosts are thought to be at their most powerful, and black magic at its most effective. This hour is typically midnight, and the term may now be used to refer to midnight, or any late hour, even without having the associated superstitious beliefs. The term ‘witching hour’ can also refer to the period from midnight to 3 a.m., while ‘Devil’s Hour’ refers to the time around 3 a.m.” Apparently, the Devil’s Hour is the exact opposite of the time Christ supposedly died at 3 p.m. (I won’t even get into the logic of this for those of us on Mountain Standard Time).
It’s been suggested that this is the time of extreme early morning when more firefighters and police are called. That’s true, but then it takes a whole night of drinking to get into trouble at 3 a.m. It’s also believed that we might be having access to our God figure in that state of mind in deep theta sleep and in between REM sleep. Others think that it’s the extreme darkness that occurs just before dawn that permits melatonin to adjust and create a sleep state that’s in the process of shifting, a time in which we could awaken. It’s also entirely possible that discomfort after hours in our beds is what jostles us awake at about that magical time (especially middle-agers). Whatever the reasoning, any time you’re under extreme stress, you’re likely to wake right around that 3 a.m. hour and not be able to fall back asleep again. Obviously, our bodies are telling us that some sort of stimuli (earthly or unearthly) is creating a dark-of-night awakening.
If this continually waking at 3 am is putting a damper on your life, there’s some things you can consider to get your rhythms back in order:
You can try to go to bed later than usual.
You can set your alarm for 1 a.m. and then go back to sleep.
You can darken your room completely or wear an blackening eye mask.
You can cool off the room more so your body temperature can stay down where it needs to be for the brain to induce sleep state (running a noisy fan is a good option—it also masks outside sounds).
Try and turn the clock around so you can’t see it.
You can try having a light snack with carbs before bedtime to feed your brain.
You can consider taking a Benadryl at bedtime OR try 3 mg of melatonin.
There are conditions such as depression and anxiety that can cause insomnia, as well as chronic medications that can affect sleep. How does one know if waking at 3 a.m. is spiritually related or physically? Look at the clock.
Have you ever had to get up at 7:30 the next morning and you wake up at 7:28? Yeah, our internal clocks are amazing. If you start waking at 2:37 in the morning, you’re likely to continue to do that so long as that number is in your head. You need to consciously remind yourself “7:30” over and over again as you go to sleep. Set the clock. Look at the alarm time several times to visualize that number. Print it into your brain. If you keep waking up at 3:08 every morning, your internal clock has been reset to anticipate that time on the clock. Ideally, just turning the clock around works great. You wake up, don’t memorize numbers on the clock, problem gone. Give it a try some time.
If you ever awaken during this time with a rush of emotion and don’t understand where it’s coming from, it’s entirely possible that your true self or your higher self are trying to communicate. Should you be gathering communications from “the other side” because you seem receptive in the sleep state, once you awaken that sense of someone being there will dissipate. You are in a new brainwave state and are now no longer a receptive receiver.
Scientists tell us that our circadian rhythms in our bodies tell us when to sleep and when to wake. What if those factors weren’t dictated by body temperature, emotional state, or a noisy neighborhood? What if they were affected by a time when our minds are in the sleep state combined with the thinnest veil between our world and the other(s)?
I admittedly have found the time between midnight to 4 am is prime ghost hunting hours. Not always convenient when you’ve been sitting still for the past four hours already and are feeling the body’s need to hit the sleep state. Perhaps our senses are more acute in that need-to-sleep state. I know that a tiny sound when I’m sleeping can keep me up (hyperacousis–sensitivity to sound). A trickle of light will make it impossible to sleep. A sore muscle can feel like agony. Perhaps the combination of our mind running in the deeper sleep state along with sharper senses make us ideal barometers for paranormal activity.
Is it possible too that we might be having spirit visitors while we sleep? Alien encounters? Astral projection of our souls leaving our bodies and traveling around? Well, these are all theories to ponder. And, when you’re pondering those, consider this popular story on the internet – a ghost that showed up on camera during a sleep study (more than likely a piece of link that flew by the lens when the air conditioning went on, but alas we may never know, especially when no one provides the source of the video and remains anonymous).

I’ve lived in my house since 1999. I didn’t start noticing things until after 2005, but I would notice ALL of my kids had so called, “imaginary friends”. My son woke me up one morning at 2:47 am and was crying and told me something black, tall, and walking weird went from his room to ours and disappeared on top of me and his dad. Since THEN, I’ve woken up at 2:47 am EVERY MORNING, then I can’t go back to sleep until AFTER the kids go to school, AND THEN I get nothing done. I’ve been doing this now since 2009. But anyway, about that video footage up there – I took a still photo of something that looked EXACTLY LIKE THAT in the top of my stairway as I was coming DOWNSTAIRS one morning at approximately 2:49 am. I heard something move above my head, I had my cellphone in my hand, and turned around and snapped a photo in the direction the noise came from – AND THAT THING LOOKED JUST LIKE that thing on that video above – only like I said, I took a still photo, I didn’t video record it. I still have it if anyone wants me to send it to them. It was creepy to see that video. I’m telling you it looks JUST LIKE that thing above. Anyway, this getting up EVERY MORNING at 2:47 then going back to bed and sleeping til 2 or 3 pm IS STRAINING on EVERY LEVEL. I use to get up at 5:30, stay up all day, get things done, etc… NOW I just sleep all day cause I’m up from 2:47 on. And I have tried taking clocks out of the room, I’ve tried programming my brain, I’ve tried going to bed later, and even if I don’t go to bed til 2 am, I’m still up 47 minutes later. If I DON’T get up, and I try to just stay in bed and go back to sleep, my legs get SO RESTLESS that I can’t lay there anymore. Now I don’t fight it, I just get up. IT SUCKS
To get rid of the ghosts in your house try and keep your house as clean as possible and burn white sage or frankinsence incense in your house regularly. Have the windows open for fresh air a lot, get rid of clutter. Play sacred mantras, prayers, or Gods names, or bible verses, Vedic slokas on a tape player or computer, and play it into the house regularly and that will pump positive energy into your house. Also you can buy Buddhas and put them around the house, and also prayer plarks, or aum symbols and place them around your house, anything sacred and holy and that will repel the ghosts too.
Also you can try buying some orgonite positive energy devices and place them around the house, you can find them cheap on orgonise Africa . com and they have free shipping worldwide.
Wear a clear quarts crystal or place it beneath your pillow. It is for protection. It only a few dollars at any spiritual / healing shop. Once you get it home soak it in salt water for atleast 24 hours. It will cleanse it no telling how many people have left their energy traces on it through touch.towl dry and wearafter a few days you’ll feel a good different less stress, uneasyness ect. Every new moon hang it on a tree limb outside to be recharged, if you feel its no longer working . Resoak in salt water ect. Again. Till you no longer need it. Usually it will mysterously become lost when its no longer needed…worked for me theres many stones that have many uses. A snowy quarts found me a week ago i’ve been wearing it since. Look into stones and their meanings/uses… Safe journeys… Love and light to you…..
NOW IM UPGRADED FROM 11:11 TO 12:12 OR 21:21 ETC.
