Parapsychology Explored

Psychic AbilitiesParapsychology is the study of psychic abilities, near-death experiences, and life after death. It uses scientific method experimenting with random number generators which are used to test for evidence of precognition and psychokinesis on humans and animals.

One of the former most studiers of Parapsychology was J.B Rhine who famously coined the term ESP (extrasensory perception). He studied at The Society for Psychical Research which was founded in London in 1882. He was pivotal in the study of Parapsychology and began to change the way studies were carried out. Rather than carrying out qualitative evidence for paranormal phenomena Rhine pursued a quantitative, statistical approach using cards and dice. This way soon became standard and interested researchers across the world adopted this approach. (more…)

The Unicorn

UnicornThe Unicorn is the universal symbol for mystics of enlightenment and spiritual transformation. Whilst its depiction often differs the mythology of it being a magnificent and elusive creature does not.

The oldest form of the Unicorn is probably the Chinese Ki-Lin in about 3000BC. Chinese symbolism describes it as one of the four spiritually endowed or auspicious creatures of the Ssu Ling; it is the essence of all five elements whilst embodying both the male /female yin and yang.

In the west the Unicorn is strongly associated with the moon; it is nearly always coloured white or silver. The mythical creature represents purity, gentleness and strength of mind – the horn a symbol of enduring individuality and power.

The Unicorn is also closely associated with royalty and is prominent in heraldry, often opposite a lion representing both lunar and solar energies.

Inspire Good Karma – Let Them Fly…

Stones Balancing

From time to time everyone needs their own space, whether it be your family, friends, partner or even children – do not be afraid to let them be by themselves for a while. The need to tie or secure someone to ourselves normally comes from our own insecurities or fear that they will reject us; but true love in all its forms is not possessive. Allow your relationships to grow with true trust, love and respect and their paths will then never stray far from your own.

Which Sense Do You Favour?

Kinaesthetic people may need to touch something to aid their understanding. (more…)
