Recently, after doing a psychic reading for a client who owns a Yoga studio, my mind roamed back many years to weekly Yoga classes I attended. The classes were given by the most wonderful lady who was 76 years ‘young’. She was vibrant and supple enough to make us younger ones look pathetic by comparison.

One evening our mentor invited us students to a ‘levitation’ demonstration and that was my very first experience of witnessing a person levitating in front of my eyes. Although there was a lead-up talk, prior to her levitation demonstration, all I recall seeing is that moment when she levitated from her horizontal position on the floor to the same position in a trance like state. She rose up and was suspended in the air at what appeared to be about 3 feet from the stage. Read the rest of this entry »

Ectoplasm is an outer layer of protoplasm; one could say it is an etherealized protoplasm. Protoplasm is the basis of all plant and animal life.

Physical mediumship requires either a superabundance of one of the chemicals contained in protoplasm, or the addition of an unknown chemical built up by spirit power. This substance in its many forms is used as the basis of all physical spirit manifestation.

It forms the body and clothing of a materialized spirit. It is also used in telekinesis and automatic writing. In fact, even the tiniest of spirit raps cannot be produced without the aid of a physical body from which is drawn the necessary ectoplasm.

Spirits, without the use of a material instrument, are powerless to produce a sound or anything that comes into the range of our five physical senses, for they live in a higher range of vibration of which we are unconscious. To produce any form of sound they need ectoplasm. Ectoplasm is the key to how spiritual entities manifest once again in a body that can be seen and even, sometimes, touched.

I had no idea I may be psychic, until I fell into this work by happenstance. Over the ages people have pictured ‘us’ as people who know what things mean when they have visions, who know when they have visions, and are able to have an advantage over mere mortals.

Personally, I have grown up with ideas formed by psychic movies such as Stephen King’s Firestarter, in which psychokinesis is displayed as an obvious power, because the character’s hair would stand on end when she affected matter around her. You may also remember the more traditional idea of ‘the waking vision’ by the psychic – usually a vision on a hill or in the sky? I have almost utter incomprehension as to why the actors always close their eyes when they channel, because I have never had to.

In the movies it also seemed to me as if spirits were mostly portrayed as evil, which is why I probably never paid much attention to my more pleasant paranormal experiences, and dreams were meant to be more literal, more of a reproduction of actual events, in sequence, like a clip from a movie.

If you haven’t already read about the Global Consciousness Project, be sure to check it out, because it explores the relationship between mind and matter; in other words the role of the mind and intention in the physical world. It also brings to the surface fascinating considerations about the collective mind.

Here is a quote from the Global Consciousness website which gives you a flavor of its incredible work:

“The Global Consciousness Project (GCP) is an international effort involving researchers from several institutions and countries, designed to explore whether the construct of interconnected consciousness can be scientifically validated through objective measurement. The project builds on excellent experiments conducted over the past 35 years at a number of laboratories, demonstrating that human consciousness interacts with random event generators (REGs), apparently ‘causing’ them to produce non-random patterns.” Read the rest of this entry »

I once read the personal story of a woman who was searching beyond the norm for spiritual meaning. She had been going to psychic readings, telekinetic spoon-bending workshops and séances.

In time she really branched out and experimented with numerous things. Her sister thought she was a real ‘oddball’ for it…a few peas short of a casserole, so to speak.

The sister was far more pragmatic. She didn’t really believe in the spiritual realm or the unseen. She was a ‘get things done’ kind of person, who lived nearly entirely in the moment – planning, organizing and making sure her family ran according to the clock. Read the rest of this entry »

Psychics and mediums in the movies are traditionally depicted as shrewd, flaky or simply evil. To this day it remains the exception to the rule to find a decent film or television show that genuine psychics will be able to relate to. Very few films in the archives offer a reasonably authentic representation of the ordinary psychic’s true life experiences.

The range of stereotypical stock characters in film is almost never-ending: from the typical dumb blondes and computer-hacking geeks, to corrupt Catholic priests, zany black cops, Las Vegas mobsters, flamboyant gay men, conspiring politicians, sex-obsessed teenagers and bombastic corporate executives with fat cigars.

Of course, psychics and mediums also make the perfect stereotype. We are ideal to be cast in the role of the satanic villain, or merely as an odd source of comic relief. For example, Whoopi Goldberg’s madcap portrayal of Oda Mae Brown, the fraudulent medium in Ghost (1990), was so well-received after the film’s release that she won a Golden Globe for her hilarious antics, as well as an Academy Award!

Hollywood relies on these stereotypes to increase box office success. Portraying misrepresented characters in a one-dimensional manner has a much wider audience appeal. Sadly, it also leads to ignorance, misconception, prejudice and discrimination. Read the rest of this entry »
