Xenoglossy is another ability which is included within the term paranormal or psychic abilities. This ability means that the person who posses it can speak literally in foreign tongues, in other words the person who has this ability is able to speak other languages of which they have no prior knowledge of.

Usually people with this ability can with no prior knowledge of languages can not only speak in but write in many different languages, No prior knowledge in this instance means that the language that they suddenly can speak or write in, is not their own native language, they have never spoken or been taught the language that they can suddenly and without warning can be able to speak.

Psychometry is another ability included within the term paranormal abilities or psychic abilities. This abilities means, that a person can get information from historical objects or family heirlooms, by touching or holding the object in their hands.

It is thought by some people that object’s from the past bear impressions of those who have touched or owned the objects at one time or another.

So, if a person exists with this paranormal ability to hold or touch these objects then they can pick up information on the previous owners. Information like who they were, their characteristics, and other information on the object itself. Where it came from and how it came to be in the past owners possession.

Objects that have been known to be used by those possessing these skills are, rings, watches, key’s, ornaments, items of clothing etc…

Welcome To The World of Metaphysical Studies

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:08:10 +0000

Metaphysical is a term often used to describe things that normal science cannot understand or explain. In simple terms it describes what goes beyond the confides of the physical realm and that which sits in and between the realm of the physical and spiritual world.

To better understand the concepts of Metaphysical Studies, let us first take a journey in the Metaphysical World and Beyond. So that you may decide for yourself whether you believe there are things that science can not understand, that there is something more out there that just what we think we see and know.

I can provide you with information and articles on the Metaphysical World, but from there it is up to you to decide whether you believe or not?

Remember The Truth Is Out There Should You Choose To Seek It……….

Happy Hunting,

The Supernatural and The Paranormal - Part 1

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:05:22 +0000

For many of us when we think of the terms supernatural and paranormal, the images that come to mind are ghosts, haunted houses and things that go bump in the night. The question is, is that all these term’s mean or is there more to it than that.

In some scientific circles the term ‘supernatural’ is meant to be something that violates the laws of nature.

So, may I ask the Christians reading this to take a moment to ponder on this, could God, Jesus or a Higher Power be considered to be supernatural or paranormal? Healing the sick, making the dead walk – could this not be considered as things that violate the laws of nature for e.g. it is not natural for a person to make the dead walk, lay their hands on a sick person and heal them, nor would be considered natural to turn water in to wine or create enough fish to feed 5,000 people. If this is true, and God or a Higher Power can tick the boxes so to speak in the paranormal and supernatural section of metaphysical and scientific studies, then wouldn’t this help towards proving that the paranormal, supernatural and all those topics and subjects within do exist and are real? I think it’s definitely worth thinking about, don’t you?

Cosmology

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:03:27 +0000

Cosmology is the study of the Universe, in actual fact it is the use of Scientific Observation and Experimentation to understand the Cosmo better. It is the study of the universe from its very existence or what is referred to as the ‘big bang’ to the expanding growth of the universe to the end of time and space. From the scientists own observation and experimentation they can use their results to try to predict the history of the universe. Moreover, the scientists try to learn and understand the progression of the growth of the universe as a whole. Using their results and the physical laws of the universe that govern what happens and how it expands.On the other hand, we then have the study of Metaphysical Cosmology which is the study of science and religion. Two of these doctrines which are studied in connection to the concepts of not only the universe, but of nature, man and God and trying to understand the conclusions that can be formed as to the relationship and connection between, the universe + nature then the universe +nature + man and then the connection between, the universe + nature + man + God. It is the ultimate question that all human being ask ‘Why are we here?’, ‘What is our role in the universe?’ and so on……
When studying this there are several aspects which must be considered they are, our origins, world religions, and the role of mythology and the nature of reality. When considering the various views and thoughts on creation and the end of the universe, the roles of these things in shaping our religions, our lives and our world. We must also take into consideration the links between the universe, faith and spirituality.

Ontology

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:01:41 +0000

Ontology is the study of reality in essence ‘what is reality?’, ‘what is existence?’ or even ‘what defines something as a physical object?’ So Ontology is the study of what we call reality, through science and observation we try to understand the world around us in a more profound way. There are various aspects to Ontology, and like so many of the other fields of study we have previously looked at there is also the Metaphysical side of this subject. In this subject matter in particular scientists and researchers are interested in ‘the different kind of ways of beings’ and its relationship and connection to the world around us. But what makes something ‘a being or an entity’ anything that seems to incorporate the various senses of ‘being’. To make these concepts less scientific and easier to understand, I will try to explain what the idea of ‘being’ or ‘entity’ is.
There are many different categories that show you how things are categorized as being or entity. Below you will find a list of categories that plainly describe what makes something ‘a being’ rather than and ‘entity’.

BEING CATEGORIES

Physical Objects - these are things that are in our reality are all around us, they are solid and like trees, plants/flowers, houses and people they are solid beings which can be sensed. In as much as some physical objects can be smelled and touched they come under those things which can be sensed and our therefore naturally categorized as being.

Minds - Every human being has a mind and so the mind is by some philosophers considered ‘a being’ but only the parts of the mind that ‘think and perceived’ are considered as ‘being’. To some philosophers the mind distinct from the body, almost like these two ‘beings’ are separate yet living under the same roof so to speak.

Classes - Everything in the universe can be classed, whether it’s the plants and the universe to human beings. Classes for the most part are taken as abstract objects in other words sets of things.

Properties - Most things in reality have properties with other things for e.g. a banana is yellow and so the color yellow is associated, share or have properties with all things that are yellow. Properties is a description a descriptive quality that describes an object, it is something that is just not associated with color but also with size and weight in some ways it is very like a classification of an object. Ontology is the study of reality in essence ‘what is reality?’, ‘what is existence?’ or even ‘what defines something as a physical object?’. So Ontology is the study of what we call reality, through science and observation we try to understand the world around us in a more profound way. There are various aspects to Ontology, and like so many of the other fields of study we have previously looked at there is also the Metaphysical side of this subject.

Reincarnation

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 13:59:51 +0000

Reincarnation is the concept that when we die, we are born into flesh again, in other words we are born into flesh, and when we die, we return to the earth to a new body. Therefore, we reincarnate from one life to the next, or at least our soul does as the soul is reincarnated from one body to the next.
Though our souls travels from one body to the next, our bodies and faces are ever changing, as we reincarnate we learn through each life’s situations and events, lessons that help us advance our souls to reach enlightenment.

There are many religions and belief systems which believe in the concept of reincarnation, for many of these there is a deep seeded belief that we as spiritual beings can choose when to be reincarnated and so choose the life we want to lead next ourselves, that we have free will in this choice.

Although there are many religions and belief systems that believe in reincarnation, there are many differences to what each culture or religion believes it to be in their eyes. Those that do believe in the idea of reincarnation are Sikhism, Yoga, Hinduism, Shaivism, Vaishnavism, Buddhism, Paganism, Vedic, and Spiritism. The ancient Greeks and Romans also believe in the idea of Reincarnation.

NDE - Near Death Experiences

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 13:58:11 +0000

Near Death Experiences have been reported all over the world for many years, but what is meant by the term Near Death Experience (NDE). A Near Death Experience happens when someone is close death or is clinically dead and is then revived. Some Scientific Experts believe that what a person experiences or sees in these moments can be easily explained as hallucinations brought on by the death of the brain. Though this explanation can not account for the numerous experiences, which have been recorded over the years. Nor does this scientific theory make sense when you realize that if a person clinically has brain death they cannot be revived/brought back to life. NDE first began to draw interest through the research of people like George Ritchie, Raymond Moody Jr and Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, but NDE became of worldwide public interest in 1975 with the release of Moody’s book Life after Life. Not long after ‘The International Association for Near Death Studies’ was set up in the US. The only ever scholarly journal to be published in this field ‘Journal of Near Death Studies’ was published by the Near Death Association.
Since then there has been many studies done on NDE phenomenon, and many ordinary people have been interviewed on their own Near Death Experiences, those that have experienced NDE often report that during this phenomenon, they have an inner sense that they feel they know that they are dead, they feel that their bodies are light and often feel themselves leaving the body, instead of feeling scared they sense an over-whelming calmness and peacefulness, often reported is the sight of a corridor or light moving towards them, seeing deceased family members, or being brought to the light by these deceased relatives. Meeting beings of light and experiencing a review of their life (life review), being told they have to return to their body or being taken back to their physical body. Some people have found their NDE’s to be distressful, while others have had religious experiences.

Spiritual and Spirituality

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 13:55:53 +0000

When people say that they are religious we can clearly define what that actually means.

For example, by dictionary definition to be religious is ‘to have a strong belief in forces that transcend the material world and control human destiny’. For many Christians, Buddhists and many other religions to be religious is to believe in a particular deity, practice and worship a set of beliefs, ethics and values related to that deity. Religious also usually refers to organised religions such as I have mentioned above, these organised religions often have places of worships such as churches, temples, synagogues etc….where believers of those faith’s go to worship/pray. To be Spiritual is often to have beliefs beyond a particular deity and to believe more in the metaphysical connections between human beings and the world around us. It also refers to a belief that is more than just the physical or material world.

In essence people who are more spiritual than religious believe that there is both a physical and a spiritual world that intertwines and exists as one.   It is feeling, or an inner sense of a higher power, some spiritual people prefer to worship/pray in their own individual way and that doesn’t always mean that they worship at churches etc….But prefer to worship in a more personal way, that could mean in the outdoors close to nature or at home in their own personal space and individual way.   Spirituality is not an organised religion, such as those I mentioned before it is more of a universal belief system where people take their own individual journey to find the answers to life, death, the afterlife and the universe.

Psychic Abilities

Administrator — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 13:53:10 +0000

Defining Psychic Abilities is very like defining ‘The Paranormal’, because psychic abilities are abilities that go beyond the normal five senses and is referred to as the sixth sense or third eye. People with psychic abilities can reach beyond what we deem to be reality and beyond the confines of the physical world. These abilities are often called ESP (Extra Sensory Perception), although there are several different types of psychic abilities for example:
Precognition - Is the ability that allows an individual to access through dreams, information about things in the future such as places and events before they actually happen.

Retrocognition - Is the ability that allows an individual to access information on past events and places, similar to precognition but acts in reverse.

Premonition - Is like precognition except that instead of accessing future information through dreams, information can be received through visions and strong senses and feelings.

Clairvoyance, Clairaudience, Clairsentience - Are three abilities that are intertwined and allows an individual to have clear sight in other words they can see, feel and sense beyond the physical world and into the spiritworld.

Remote Viewing - Is the ability that allows an individual to be able to see physical objects and people from a distance

Telepathy - Is the ability that allows an individual to communicate with their mind to another mind

Medium - This is the ability that allows an individual to relay information from beyond the physical world

Psychokinesis - Is the ability to move objects with the mind

Several universities all over the world have parapsychology departments, where researchers are using various methods to find scientific proof that people do possess these abilities. Not only that but they are searching for proof that these individuals are receiving this information from a source beyond the physical world and our reality. ©2006-2007 Psychic Hecate.
