Spirit                  Sitter                       Medium
Aura.


Psychometry:  All physical objects pick up and retain energy such as thoughts, feelings and
actions of events that occurred in their presence.  When a psychic or medium asks a person
to give them a photo, a piece of jewelry, or some other object, they then will touch it and can
focus in on the energy of the object.  They will start to receive pictures or feelings of that
energy record and be able to tell the person it belongs to what they are getting.  A brief
example would be if someone let me hold their wedding band, I could tell if that individual is
happy, what type of job they have, what their home looks like, etc.

Oracle Cards:  When a card reader does a reading they pick up on the energy of the sitter
(person being read) and focus.  The amount of times the cards are shuffled and dealt are
dependent on the feelings the reader gets.  Often times this is channeled through spirit
guides or angels so that the exact cards will be dealt that are meaningful for the reading.  The
cards are generally a tool that the reader uses as a focal point to receive and give information
to the sitter.  In my case I usually work through the angels.  When I shuffle the deck, I receive
a clairvoyant picture of a number such as 7, then I shuffle the deck 7 times.  Next I will get a
vision of a number, perhaps of the number 5, and deal 5 cards.  With this method I have been
highly accurate in my readings whenever I use the cards.  My angels influence the card
shuffle and give me numbers so the right cards are dealt that pertain to the reading.

Pendulum:  A person has a string or chain with a crystal attached at the end and focuses on
a question.  The Pendulum will then swing in one direction or another for yes or no.  Another
example is when it is held over a paper with questions on it.  When a question is asked, the
pendulum will swing toward the answer.

Dowsing:  When a person holds on to two rods which are held loosely and extended in front
of them and might be trying to locate something such as water, minerals, or something buried.
 When the object is located, the rods will then point down as if to say, "dig here!"   This
happens when the person using rods or pendulum focuses with their psychic energy through
the rods which then align with the energy of the item being located.  Also known as Divining.

Gazing:  When a person looks into a crystal ball, water or a black mirror for example and
concentrates.  After a time, they start to see visions or pictures of places, events, or spirits.






Ouija Board:  A board with letters, numbers and Yes and No on it as illustrated here.  The
person or persons using this board will have a planchette placed on the board and try to
make contact with the spirit world by lightly placing their fingers on the planchette and asking
a question.  The planchette will then move over several letters to spell out a word.  Caution:
This is not a toy and opens the door to the spirit world.  Unless you are experienced or  
trained and use protection and have good intentions, you never know what spirit might come
through, good or bad.

Planchette:  French: Small plank.  A small board supported on casters, typically
heart-shaped and fitted with a vertical pencil, used on the Ouija Board, for automatic writing,
and in seances.

Automatic writing:  When a person lays the pen to a pad of paper and channels writing
from a spirit.  The hand seemingly moves on its own.

Seances:  Mainly during the 19th century, a medium and a group of people sat around a
table in a dimly lit room with their hands linked together and attempted to make contact with
spirit.  An example today can be seen on the cable TV show "Most Haunted."

Spirit:  The soul of a person that has died and went back to the spirit world which would be
Heaven or Summerland, or what ones beliefs dictate.

Ghost: Possibly the soul of a person who has died and is stuck here as a ghost  and did not
cross over to the spirit world for whatever reason.

Orbs:  In many photographs and in video, what appears to be spherical balls of white and
sometimes other colors of light are called orbs or ghost or spirit orbs.  Often times these orbs
are nothing more then dust particles or something else.  However, in thousands of photos
these orbs show up and can't be explained as anything other then spirits.  I believe that they
are the energy center of spirit and they can shape it into the form of a ghost or full apparition
if they so choose to manifest.  They are fluorescent in nature and can best be photographed
with or without a flash on the camera.

Why Ghosts exist:  There are too many reasons to list here, but here it is.  We are all made
up of energy which is our natural body, not this body, the body of the flesh, but pure energy.  
When a person dies, their soul slips out of the human body like a silk handkerchief pulled out
of the breast pocket.  Then you are now in spirit, your natural body.  Since it's your natural
body, you feel alive.  Some that die realize that, and some don't.  Perhaps the severely
mentally ill or someone high on drugs might die and not be aware of this.  Others that die and
are cognizant of this, will see a white light, a bridge or perhaps a tunnel and a person, pet,
relative or angel waiting to guide them home.  Some that are aware that they have died may
choose not to cross over and complete the transition and rather stay close to here in the
astral plan because they have free will to do so, and perhaps they will stay for unfinished
business, or it may be for part of their spiritual growth.  Other reasons they stay behind is to
be with a spouse they left behind, live in a beloved home that they don't want to leave from,
or they may have been bad during their life, and their belief tells them that if they cross over,
they will be judged.  So they stay behind, stuck with one foot in the astral plane and one foot
in our world.  Ghosts are all eventually rescued and will not stay here permanently.  They
may stay a long time and not realize it as there is no linear time in their dimension.   But some
ghosts are aware of the current date.       

Astral Plane:  A dimension that is overlaid with that of the earths.  There are two reasons
why we see ghosts more easily than spirits.  The energy of the ghost is more dense than that
of a transitioned spirit, and the astral plan is overlaid over ours.  The astral plane is several
levels lower than that of the spirit world which vibrates at a very high frequency.

Imprint Energy:  Imprint energy in a haunted house for example, is highly charged energy
left behind as a result of some event or traumatic experience.  It is also found in many places
such as battlefields and hospitals where there has been killing, death, and suffering.  
Eventually this energy will play out or dissipate.  If you visit a former battlefield for example,
and observe a squad of ghostly soldiers and try to make contact with them and fail, if they are
seen frequently doing the same thing over and over, you can bet that they are energetic
imprint ghosts.  Active ghosts however, are aware of you and may interact, and not in the
same way or place each time.  That's the difference between an (active) ghost and imprint
energy.

  

Astral Travel:  The spirit is made up of pure energy and does not need food or water,
money, rest, or anything tangible.  The human body does.  Therefore, when you sleep your
spirit stays busy and you dream.  When the spirit leaves the body we don't always have a
recollection of this.  When we do it feels wonderful.  Our spirit body is connected to our
physical body with a silver cord that stays attached until death.  So when you fly in your
dreams, do not worry about being safe, you are.  You can travel anywhere just by thinking
about it.  Sometimes we awake with a jerk which means our spirit may have come back into
our body.  When it leaves the body, you may get a floating sensation and also hear a pop or
buzzing sound.













Meditation:  We Meditate to quiet ourselves, focus, de-stress, relax, and perhaps have a
metaphysical or spiritual experience.  It also raises our vibration.

Angels:  
We are each born with at least two angels who stay with us from birth.  One is our nudging
angel and the other is our guiding angel.  They are also our guardians.  The angels are not
allowed to interfere with our lives with one exception, if you are about to get killed in an
accident for example, and it is not yet your time to die, they will intervene to save you; but that
is the limit.  The angels are always standing by waiting to assist you - there's just one catch...
You must ask them, as they need your permission to assist you as they are not allowed to
interfere with your life except as I stated above.  I always ask the angels to protect me while I
commute to and from work.  I also ask them for assistance for many things in my daily life.  
Sometimes I ask for a lot of angels to help or protect me in some situations.  You may ask for
as many angels as you wish.  After all, God's love for us is unlimited, so why should he limit
the amount of angels we ask for to assist us?  There are different levels of angels and the
Archangels are at the highest level.  Last exception, your guardian angels will keep you safe
naturally if it does not interfere with your life chart.  (For more info on angels, go to my Links

Chakra System:  Like all machines, humans have a power source.  There are several
hundred of them in our bodies called Chakras.  We have 7 main chakras.
They are the Root (Red) located in the base of the spine,-- the Sacral (Orange) lower
abdomen,-- Solar Plexus (Yellow) Stomach,-- Heart (Green) Sternum/heart,- Throat (Blue)
Throat,-- Third Eye (Purple/Violet) Forehead, Centered Between Eyes,--
and Crown Chakra (Indigo/Blue) Top of Head-Crown.  With your chakras open and moving
you stay healthy and feel good.  It also helps to raise you vibration to make contact with the
spirit world and opens your intuition to the cosmic consciousness.

A word about Parlor Psychics & Charlatans:


I am not saying that all of the above are not
legitimate.  What I am saying is that a psychic
should never be digging for information from
you during a reading.  They should be the
ones who give you the answers.  Additionally,
if they start talking about curses and ask for
more money to remove one from you, or offer
a spell to make someone love you for a price,
or to light candles for a price each for any of
the above, then run don't walk.  A real
psychic will charge you a one time fee and
give you a reading without asking leading
questions.  The information will not be that of
fear, hate, or evil, but based on love and
compassion.  If you ever feel uncomfortable
during a reading, I would suggest that you
leave right away.  Myself, I tend to use care
and check out parlor Fortune Tellers with
flashing signs first, with a person who has
already had a reading with one.  Some are
great, some not, just like in any business; there
are those that are honest & those that are not.
