The Spirit Of Christmas, like all holiday spirits, is a non-aware entity that is a sub-conscious component of the human collective consciousness. So it isn’t like a standard spirit, ghost, or other metaphysical entity. You can commune with it and feel its magic but you can’t technically communicate with it as it has no self-aware intelligence. However while one is dreaming they may see it take a human like form that interacts normally if the person is directly accessing the collective consciousness. Generally these perceived forms and interactions are based on the thoughts of the dreamer. Some in conflict with the Spirit will have vivid lucid dreams featuring the Spirit Of Christmas Past, Present, and Future based somewhat on Charles Dickens “A Christmas Carol”. Naturally Santa Claus has had the most excellent dreams about the Christmas Spirit as he is most in tune with it. It infuses his very angelic soul!
There was evidence that the Spirit is evolving with humankind and might indeed attain self-aware sentience someday. This was confirmed in the 1980’s when the Spirit first traveled back in time and appeared before Santa at North Pole City in a human like form. The Spirit Of Christmas appeared at times to be a boy and a girl between the ages of 5 and 7. He or she came from 1000+ years in the future when Christmas spread throughout the Galaxy with Santa Claus joining with his counterparts on alien worlds to spread Christmas cheer across the Universe.
The Christmas Spirit had become a God even more powerful than the Demi-Angel Old Saint Nick. He or she spoke of the future threat the Anti-Claus and his dark minions posed to Christmas and our reality in general. These minions include a number of alien Anti-Claus’s and evil ET’s who loathe humanity in general. Santa has heeded the Spirits warnings and adjusted his supernatural strategy accordingly! The Spirit has made only a handful of subsequent visits to the past. The last was in 2010. They must tread lightly as not to attract the future self-aware Spirit Of Dark Christmas into the past. This sinister Spirit becomes the Dark God of the Anti-Claus! Clearly the struggle between good and evil will continue into the foreseeable future. Not surprising since our reality is based on a balance between light and darkness.
