What Is Positive Spirit Possession?

In Catholicism, you have an actual like being that is an actual personified spirit. And it's going to take root inside your soul and your body and convince you to give it permission to take lead. In other spirit traditions, it's something that people are actively choosing to do. It might be a god or an ancestor or a nature spirit depending on what the spiritology of that culture is. That spirit might come and give the person advice on how the community can deal with problems. The more complex idea of possession is one we see in a lot of spirit traditions.
