Things That Go Bump In The Night:
Holy Number 666
When we lived in Northeast Arizona we sometimes traveled U.S. 666, a highway going north from Gallup to Shiprock in the heart of Navajo Land. Dubbed "the devil's highway," the name was a target of Christians who declared this to be an evil number because the Bible implies it is the number of the great beast of the apocalypse. There was a movement in political circles even then to change the name. I noticed that then New Mexico’s Gov. Bill Richardson and Highway and Transportation Secretary Rhonda Faught changed the name to an innocuous "491." The Cabala, a book of numbers, reveals that 666 is a magic number. It is known in esoteric circles as the "magic square of the sun." It is a number secretly used in sacred geometry and was once used in the design of the great temples of the world. In numerics 666 is a spiral. It is the symbol of the universal pattern of growth in nature.

480-Year-Old Map Astounds Scientists
It is known as the Carta Marina, an ancient map drawn by Swedish cartographer Olaus Magnus in 1539 that accurately depicts the North Atlantic, including land masses, islands and even sea swirls that are astounding the scientific community. Oceanographers at Plymouth Marine Laboratory and the University of Rhode Island were surprised when they discovered that swirls drawn on the map by that 16th Century artist correspond almost perfectly with thermal eddies caused by the Gulf Stream passing the cold waters of the arctic. That Olaus Magnus, a Swedish priest living in exile from his own land in Italy, captured the exact location of the front with what appeared to be artistic sweeps of his pen, appears more than mere coincidence, suggests Professor Tom Rossby at the University of Rhode Island.

If We Create Our Reality With Our Minds . . .
There is a belief by some spiritual thinkers that if the Creator exists within each of us, we create our own unique universe in which we live. In effect, this theology also teaches that since we create our own reality, we also create our personal situation in life, including the physical afflictions, struggles against poverty, and all of the other troubles we face in our daily walk. Why would we do this? The idea is that we have chosen this life style because we decided even before we were born to accept it as a way of working our old karma, bad habits and working off evil deeds committed in past lives.

Our Dreams Can Reflect Out-Of-Body Travels
A news clip about a police officer that dreamed where a missing deaf and dumb woman was accidentally trapped in a chimney flu in Wales prompted me to write a brief discourse on dreams and what goes on while we sleep. It seems this woman was a housekeeper in the home where she lived. When she went missing one day in 1871, the homeowner summoned help from the local police. That morning a man identified only as Inspector Strefford came to the house, walked straight down the cellar stairs, and found the woman stuck hard in an open flue. She had fallen there from the fireplace in the room above and because of her condition was unable to call for help. The woman was stuck so fast it required the removal of a portion of the chimney to free her. Her life was saved because the inspector had a dream that led him right to her.

Ominous Predictions of Last Days
There has rarely been times in human memory that the entire world has been caught up in the kind of chaotic condition that we now find ourselves in. The growing wall between government “authority” and the people has become a “them and us” status in nearly every nation. There is a general collapse of financial, educational, religious and social institutions as we once knew them. The very planet we live on is overcrowded, polluted, running out of resources and in a state of upheaval. Is the Christian myth of a looming apocalypse about to befall us? What can we expect? Why is all of this happening?

Are The Old Ones Returning To Set Thing Right?
It was sometime during our time with him that The Abba Father identified himself as one of “The Old Ones” and said that they were even then in the process of returning to Earth. Their mission is to help repair and restore the planet and bring it back to health. They intend to bring to an end a ravaging by a runaway alien dominated society of enslaved humans that has been going on for thousands of years.

Planetary Alignment Over Giza – What Did It Mean?
After Charles Marcello published the image of three bright stars perfectly aligned over the three large pyramids at Giza, Egypt on his blog, World Mysteries, the image went viral throughout the Internet.This happened in late 2012. As predicted, Mercury, Venus and Saturn appeared in perfect alignment over the pyramids in the early morning hours of December 3, 2012. It was allegedly an event that only happens once every 2,737 years. So what did astrologers and The Abba Father have to say about it?

The New Human Regeneration
There was an incredible story making its rounds on the web awhile back about a Dr. Berrenda Fox, a holistic practitioner from Avalon Wellness Centre, Mt. Shasta, Calif., who claimed humans are going through DNA and cellular changes and are becoming a new life form. Fox, who said she was working on programming explaining an understanding of "extraterrestrials and their role in what is happening with mankind," claimed she had documented evidence that many children and some adults were mutating into something else. She says nobody knows what we are turning into, however. Whatever it is, they are among us.

Hold On For The Ride
While world leaders grapple for a way to solve a growing list of seemingly insurmountable problems, a large number of folks who have been pursuing ancient spiritual pathways say they not only know what is going on, but they welcome the future with open arms. They say the Earth is moving into a new dimension. The change is going to be a bumpy ride, especially for people who are clinging to old religious belief systems and world materialism, and it is likely that not everyone will make the switch. Or at best they will come into this new world kicking and screaming.

The Hopi Blue Star Prophecy
It was in 1997 that my wife, Doris and I accompanied a Hopi two-horned priest to the Third Mesa at Kykotsmovi, Arizona where we had the honor of visiting a special Elder of the reservation. This man had some amazing stories and prophetic messages. He said he was one of only about eight “Elders” left in the tribe. That meant that he was there before the government forced the children to move off the reservation to attend a public school, learn the “white man’s” ways and give up tribal customs.
He told us some secret things about the Blue Star Kachina, the returning Pahana or Pale Prophet who would arrive just before the Purification. He also spoke of looming Earth Changes.

The Haunting Of The House On Hale Road
I think I first concluded that I was living in a haunted house after a twisted maple branch threw a large tree trunk at me. The tree came down on my left leg, cracking the bone near the knee. I ended up in a cast from my ankle to my hip, and was forced to spend most of my time lying flat on my back for the next three months. Suddenly my busy schedule braked to a stop. I had time to reflect on my life. I spent hours thinking, reading, and watching television. My wife made weekly trips to the local library, keeping me stocked with books. Among the books I whipped through that fall was "The Amityville Horror," a popular story about a haunted house in which events got so strange the occupants were forced to move. I began to compare some of the strange events linked to that New England house with goings on in our own home. Because I was always on the run, never taking time to stop and really look at my surroundings, I missed the fact that we had something supernatural happening right under our noses.

Are Blue Whales Singing A Warning Song?
There has been a strange phenomenon occurring among the giant blue whales throughout the oceans of the world. Their songs are changing, and the modulation, which involves a reduction of pitch to lower and lower hertz, is global in scale. The scientists say they cannot explain it. They suggest it may be a reaction to increasing noise pollution in the oceans from submarine sonar and other military technology. But the shamanic elders of the Siberian Yupik peoples, on Russia’s far eastern Chukchi Peninsula, are saying the whales are sounding a warning.

Explorations Into The Collective Unconscious Library
For years we have written about something called a collective unconsciousness . . . a common thread of knowledge that seems to be pooled in a brain library that all humans can access through right brain functioning. The name was coined by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung. This human library appears to be the glue that the shaman refers to when he declares that "we are all one." What he means is that all people are linked to a common light system . . . some call it God . . . from which we originated.

George Washington’s Angelic Vision Of America
There was a story told by Anthony Sherman, a military officer that served under General George Washington, who was present with Washington at Valley Forge during the terrible winter of 1777. It seems that Washington was visited by an angelic being that gave him visions of the new nation that was to be the result of the war Washington’s rag-tag army was fighting. In this vision, as allegedly told to Sherman directly by Washington after it happened, Washington learned his army would win the Revolutionary War and establish the Union. After that he had a vision of two more great tribulations; the Civil War and finally a great war fought on the soil of the United States.

Out-of-body Experiences
With the advancement of emergency medical procedures, the so-called "near death experience" has drawn a lot of attention. While there are scoffers, people who have experienced it swear they were really out of their bodies, sometimes hovering by a ceiling light fixture, watching the doctors and medical staffers struggle to bring them back to life. We have called these events near-death experiences. A more correct description would be out-of-body experiences. I have discovered that with the proper training, we all can do this at will. Now that I can do it, I believe many of us do it unconsciously during a "daydream" and routinely while we are asleep.

Is The Cosmos A Living Entity?
As I gazed out on the paved street in front of our home I was suddenly struck with a revelation about how interconnected the people of our nation are just because of the paved roads. I realized that it was going to be possible for us to drive on a constant ribbon of pavement to where ever we chose to go without ever leaving it. I didn’t realize it at that moment, but I was experiencing the first awareness of something even more deep in the human consciousness. It wasn’t until a few years later when I developed an interest in spiritual and esoteric thinking that the concept of a collective consciousness was thrust into my brain.

Dancing Through Time With Deja vu
We all have recollections of a Deja vu experience. The word is a French expression that means “already seen.” It is that eerie feeling that we’ve been in a place, or walked down a street, before actually being there. It almost seems as if we are reliving a dream. And then there is the opposite sensation, rarely talked about, of having a feeling of being in a strange place even though we are in familiar territory. For a technical name, it is known as Jamais vu.

Final Ninth Wave Of The Mayan Calendar
An ominous prophecy and a possible explanation for the extreme world chaos that has been occurring since March 9, 2011, is being explained by astrologers and students of the Mayan calendar. They are joining a chorus of chanelers, contemporary prophets and esoteric thinkers who believe the Earth is moving into a new phase of existence and that the change will have a major impact on humanity.

About Ley Lines
We first heard about ley lines when my wife and I met a homeless young man at Sedona, Arizona. The man, whom we thought quite insane, said he could see the ley lines surrounding the Earth and knew how to alter the energies that follow them. I had forgotten about the ley line story until I read about the theories of Alfred Watkins. He suggested that the megaliths, standing stones, old crosses, burial mounds, old churches and other ancient markers throughout the British Isles are aligned with ley lines circling the planet. Watkins noted that according to old folk-lore, there is a natural flow of energy that follows the lines.

The Tragic History of Doctor Faust
Literary buffs are familiar with Christopher Marlowe’s “The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus” and Goethe’s “Faust.” But few readers of those infamous stories know that there was a real Dr. Johann Georg Faust and that the stories appear to be based on the legend of his tragic life. According to legend, Faust became involved with the occult, learned how to summon the devil, and sold his soul in exchange for 24 years of a life of pleasure. As the years passed Faust learned to regret his deal and made an attempt to withdraw it. According to the various fictional stories, Faust paid dearly for his decision. It was said the devil tore him to pieces and left his remains on a dung heap near Wittenberg. His eyes were glued to a wall.

Sixteenth Century German Mystic Cornelius Agrippa
He was labeled a heretic by the church and some might have said he was in league with the devil, but German Mystic Heririch Cornelius Agrippa von Nettesheim left an indelible mark on the renaissance esoterica of his day. In fact three of his books on the occult are still circulating today.

Strange Story of Tartini’s “Devil’s Trill”
Italian composer and violinist Giuseppe Tartini (1692-1770) was said to have composed over 400 works during his lifetime. Among them is a piece he named the “Devil’s Trill Sonata.” It was said that Tartini composed this work after hearing it played in a dream. And the performer in the dream was none other than the Devil.

Did General Moulton Really Sell His Soul?
There is an old story about Brigadier General Jonathan Mouton, an officer in the Union Army under George Washington, who amassed a fortune during his years in the colonies but then died a sudden and terrible death because he sold his soul to the devil, and then attempted to cheat the devil during a delivery of gold coins.

The Wail of the Banshee
There is an eerie Irish myth that speaks of the banshee, a “woman of the fairy mounds” who emits a piercing wail when someone near is about to die. When the sound is heard, or sometimes the spirit is actually seen in one of its many forms, it is considered by the old Irish as an omen of death.

Krampus
The Great Santa Claus Myth
The image of Santa Claus is strongly associated with the bane that a rebellious branch of society and some fundamental Christians have dubbed the “commercialization of Christmas.” But the figure as we know it stems from ancient and spooky mythology that has its origins before the birth of Jesus.

Astral Flying
While there are scoffers, people who accidentally enter the astral for brief periods, usually while near death in a hospital emergency room, swear they are really out of their bodies. They find themselves hovering by a ceiling light fixture, watching the doctors and medical staffers working to bring their bodies back to life.

Catholic Priests Exorcising Something, But What?
Roman Catholic priests have strangely returned to the ancient rites of exorcism because of what they claim has been a flurry of demonic activity in the world. Based on what is known about the angelic and demonic spirits that live among us, the stories seem somewhat unlikely. While both angels and demons can “possess” humans, their influence is so subtle that the host rarely is aware of the possession. So what are the priests battling?

Messages From The Other Side
Not too many years ago we published a criticism of people that claim to speak to the dead. The article quoted a man who declared that such assertions were hoaxes. “The dead are dead,” said he. “Their nervous system is shut down. Their eyes no longer see. And they are no longer aware of you or anything around them.” I wrote his story, but with great personal reservation. That is because before he made these claims, I had visited my own mother after her passing in 1998. Also my late wife, Doris J. Donahue, who had the amazing ability to communicate with spirits beyond the veil, received at least two messages from her before she went on into the light.

Moses On Drugs?
While this site consistently questions the Christian story in general and we note there is some doubt as to the existence of many of the Old Testament characters so endured by people of the Jewish faith, we have to take exception to a report that Moses was “high on drugs” when he received the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai. The story implies that the commandments, so long the root of most laws of behavior in Christian and Jewish societies, were generated in the mind of a man who was lost in a psychedelic cloud and were not from God.

Psychics, Clairvoyants and Prophets
As we read through various articles about the contemporary “psychic” phenomenon, most penned by journalists lacking much knowledge about their subject, there is a realization that people are confused as to what right-brain functioning is all about. When we read stories about psychics, the writers often expect these people to have clear visions of future events, something very rare, indeed. The true prophetic vision is achieved only by a prophet, and throughout history, these gifted people have been few and far between.

The Message Within The Ankh
The ankh is an ancient symbol that has been used and perhaps abused in religious context for thousands of years. The symbol is found in the art of ancient Egypt. It was used by the Coptic Christians as a sign of the cross. Witches even today see the ankh as a symbol of life and immortality.

The Swastika Never Belonged To The Nazis
People all over the world today relate the symbol known as the swastika, or the cross with its arms bent to the right, to the German Nazi movement that led to the Second World War. Because it now has connotations of evil, it is rarely seen.
That is unfortunate because the swastika is a very ancient symbol that has been used, especially by religious groups, all over the world and for as long as there has been a recorded human history.

The Agony of Theophilus
There is a strange legend involving an orthodox cleric who allegedly made a pact with the Devil to gain an ecclesiastical position of Bishop in the Sixth Century Church of Adana, Cilicia, which is now Turkey. There have been many stories about famous and infamous people who have made such pacts but the story of Theophilus is believed to be the oldest.

Haunting Visions Of Psychic Jeane Dixon
An Internet entry a few years ago by a person identified only as Brother V sparked some research into the strange visions of the late psychic Jeane Dixon. Dixon, many will remember, was said to have gained fame because of her accurate prediction of the death of President J. F. Kennedy. But this woman saw numerous other things that came true. Some of the events she predicted may still be of great interest to the contemporary world.

The Mysterious "Watchers"
We have the sense that something, or some organization of aliens, or perhaps a secret counsel of superior beings, is sitting in judgment over all that occurs on this planet. While some would like to think of this entity as God, we sense that it is something very different, yet possessing a chilling power over our future. A lot of ancient text refers to “watchers” from the heavens. The Egyptians, for example, told of migrating from the biblical land of Shin’ar, which means Land of the Watchers. The Egyptians called it Ta Neter, or Land of the Watchers “from which the gods came into Egypt.”

Explaining The Occult Signature L.V.X.
When students of Aleister Crowley pass correspondence to one another, they usually attach the letters L.V.X. at the bottom of the manuscript. As in all of the secrets from the world of the mystics, the meaning of the letters, or symbols, is deeply rooted in Qabalistic mysteries. We once ran into a written walk-through this maze that explains the meaning of the letters.

The Spirit in George Ferguson's Head
You couldn't find a more common or more likable man that George Ferguson. Saddled with only a primary school education, George was a heavy duty mechanic who traveled around repairing big construction equipment. A pure blooded Scotsman, he liked to show his family coat of arms and attend Scottish rites in the area, dressed in the family colors. He had his own kilt and Scottish dress, which he enjoyed modeling it whenever he had a willing subject. George was an unlikely candidate for the odd spiritual thing that happened to him and the heavy burden it placed on his shoulders. Ferguson described the first contact as a voice. The first few times it happened, he said he dismissed it as hallucinations. But the voices returned again and again. After a while George said he started taking them seriously, and listening to what they had to say. He began to realize that there was more than one voice.

Living Among The Mysterious Hopi
When my wife and I went among the Hopi people in 1997 we befriended a two-horned priest who introduced us to one of the last six living tribal elders. We were privileged to have been taught and shown things that outsiders rarely, if ever, get to see. Theirs is a complex story that is not easy to grasp. In fact, the Hopi are known for their secrecy in revealing their religious beliefs, their history and just who they believe they are. In essence, the Hopi appear to teach that they are an original people brought to this world, or what they refer to as The Fourth World.

Alien Skulls Under The Vatican
The Vatican library was recently re-opened to religious scholars following an extensive $7.5 euro three-year renovation designed to shore up "dangerous structural weaknesses" discovered in the foundation of the Sixteenth Century building. New climate controlled equipment to protect that ancient manuscripts and a new state-of-the-art security system also were installed. It was during the renovation work that workmen, digging deep in the rock under the library, allegedly came upon a long-forgotten grave-site which, if the story is true, obviously shocked the Pope and all of the robed high priests surrounding him. The bones and skulls were reportedly humanoid, but clearly non-human in origin.

Paganini; “The Devil’s Violinist”
Niccolo Paganini, the great Italian violin virtuoso, is proclaimed to have been the greatest violinist who ever lived. His compositions and his renditions were so amazing they said it drove people who heard his music to tears. His ability to play three octaves across four strings in a hand span is still considered nearly impossible. Of the 24 Caprices he composed, few other violinists have been able to play them. That he accomplished such amazing fetes led to a belief by many that Paganini was believed to have made a pact with the devil that allowed him to perform almost supernatural displays.

Cannon’s View Of Looming Ascension
Hypnotherapist and past-life regressionist Dolores Cannon, in a brief appearance in the on-line video “2012,” offers the best explanation we have yet seen of how the Earth may go through the looming ascension as foretold by world visionaries. Cannon asks her audience to envision the Earth as a single cell that divides, just as we observe living cells split while looking at them through a microscope. She said she believes the new planet that emerges will be an almost exact replica of the original Earth at the time of creation.

The Lady Sopwith Legend
The First World War was a long and bloody global four-year engagement that raged from 1914 to 1918. More than 70 million soldiers fought that war leaving 16 million combatants and civilians dead by the time it ended. Out of that war emerged several strange stories from the occult that are still being told to this day. Among the strangest stories was the legend of Lady Sopwith, a beautiful blonde woman who allegedly flew through the skies of Europe in an English Sopwith E-5, teasing and playing dogfight with English pilots and shooting down German fighter planes.

Greek Mythology Links Uranus With Mother Earth
During our research into the realms of esoteric matters and while in contact with the “wisdom” of whatever entity my wife happened to be connected with, the name Uranus sometimes came up during questions about both human origins and our destiny. Uranus is the name of one of the planets in our Solar System. It is a big gaseous blue globe, the seventh planet from the Sun, with an atmosphere comprised of mostly hydrogen with some helium and methane mixed in. The winds on the surface blow at velocities of up to 360 miles per hour. Uranus is obviously not a source of human life or a place for humans to flee to if and when we kill the Mother Earth. So why is the name Uranus so significant to the entities existing on the astral plane?

Astral Flying
While there are scoffers, people who accidentally enter the astral for brief periods, usually while near death in a hospital emergency room, swear they are really out of their bodies. They find themselves hovering by a ceiling light fixture, watching the doctors and medical staffers working to bring their bodies back to life. With extensive experimentation we have learned that leaving the body is easier than one might think. Some of us do it all the time.

Ancient Text Describes Space Craft
I remember my attempts at pinning down an adult Bible teacher during a study of the Old Testament Book of Ezekiel some years ago. As an ardent Bible student and former religion writer for a Michigan daily newspaper, I was personally convinced that the writer of Ezekiel was describing the landing of some kind of “fiery” craft from the sky and his strange encounter with the entities that landed it. Encounters with flying craft can be found in other ancient text.

Dealing With The Odd Illusion Of Time
Not long ago I was lamenting to a friend my concern that due to aging the time we were allotted in this world was quickly eroding. Even worse, said I, it appears that the human race also may be rushing toward its own conclusion and that our attempts to stop what is happening seem to have failed. The response received was quite unexpected. The wise recipient of my muse reminded me that time is an illusion. "If it has not happened yet, then there is still time to do something about it," she said.

Lam
Aleister Crowley And The Extraterrestrial
English Psychic/Magickian/Writer Aleister Crowley conducted experiments in 1918 that he claimed led to a face-to-face meeting with an alien that he called “Lam.” Thus Crowley, in addition to all of his other incredible achievements mostly in esoteric matters, became one of the first, if not the first contemporary to make contact and describe the being he believed was an alien from another dimension.

Who And What Are The Ascended Masters?
As the world rushes toward what many fear will be humanities final days on Earth, we hear a lot about ascension. The Christians believe their god-man Jesus will come down in the clouds and “rapture” them, or cause them to ascend into an afterlife with him. The Moslems share a similar belief that a “savior” will soon return to the world. And The Abba Father as well as spiritual masters like Her Holiness Sai Maa Lakshmi Devi teach how to turn on the inner light of our bodies, allow the soul to enter the body, and prepare for an ascension available to all mankind.

Author Claimed Jesus Was A Mushroom
The late author John Marco Allegro stirred serious controversy in the ranks of the Christian church in 1970 when his book, The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross was published. The book, which examined the origins of Christianity based on ancient fertility cults, examined the links to ancient fertility cults and the ingestion of psychedelic plants like Amanita muscaria, peyote and psilocybin in an attempt to “perceive the mind of God.” Allegro pointed to paintings and other art works in the Vatican that depict the ritual ingestion of the red and white Amanita Muscaria as an important component of the Eucharist. As you may imagine, it had everything to do with Santa Claus and Christmas.

Spiritual Significance Of The Winter Solstice
Today is December 21. This day is the Winter Solstice and marks the official start of the winter season for people living in the northern hemisphere. It is the longest day of the year, or Summer Solstice for people living in the southern hemisphere. That is because this is the day the Earth reaches its farthest tilt on its axis, and if all goes as it has for as long as humans have recorded history, it will start tilting back the other way by December 24. In ancient times, the Aboriginal people worried that the Sun, which was sinking lower and lower in the sky and days were getting shorter and shorter, might possibly be going away forever. For them, the Winter Solstice became a very important spiritual experience. Once the days began getting longer and they knew it was coming back, there was cause for celebration. Great stone monuments from that ancient past still stand in place all over the world, marking the importance of this particular day.

The Human Soul Is More Than An Electrical Impulse
I recently read that a Professor Johnjoe McFadden, of the School of Biomedical and Life Sciences at the University of Surrey, in the UK, is looking for an electronic explanation for the conscious mind. McFadden entertains a theory that our thoughts are electromagnetic fields that radiate into space around us like radio or television signals. In a sense, we think the professor may be quite right about our ability to transmit messages via human energy fields, but there seems to be something more to it than mere electrical waves.

Pagan Belief In A Solar Deity May Be Correct
I recently received a letter from a 30-year-old woman who perceives our universe as a living organism. She wrote: "If you magnify an eyelash, or a drop of water, you will see millions of living cells and organisms floating around. I believe we, as humans, are part of a chain (of life) and we are a part of a higher being. . . we could be organisms (living) on another being for all I know. I believe life lives upon life, like fleas on a dog. We are humans on the Earth. Think of the Earth as one cell working in conjunction with millions upon millions of other cells." Her letter reminded me of a revelation I experienced as a young man. It came to me while I was standing one bright spring day deep in a small forest on my father's Michigan farm. As I stood there, smelling the rich aroma of the trees and grass and flowers springing to life after a winter's slumber, I could almost hear the sap rushing through the bark of the trees and sense the thunder of a reawakening Earth under my feet. It was at that moment that I understood that the planet is a living organism.

Tapping Into The Light Of The Soul
In our past encounters with the Hindu Master Sai Maa and the spiritual entity identified as The Abba Father, we have noticed a common thread in the information received . . . there is a need for humans to learn to tap into a light, or an energy source that has always been within our grasp, and prepare for a major dimensional shift that is soon to occur. The Abba Father says the light has always existed for us but we need instructions on getting it activated so we can be prepared for the change. “Humans contain so much light they are capable of becoming gods,” this entity said. We are instructed to mentally go within, envision opening every cell, and in this way turn on the internal light so that our resonance increases. We will know that we have been successful because we will feel the power like sparks at the tips of our fingers. If you can see auras you will actually see the light coming from your fingertips.

About Marduk And The Necronomicon
One of our readers, Tammie George, brought our attention to some interesting links between Biblical figures, Greek mythology, Samaritan and possibly even the Mayan gods.
If George is correct, all of these ancient societies had access to the same Spirits of the Goetia that were reportedly dealt with by King Solomon. George caught our attention when she wrote: “I was reading the Book of Fifty Names by Simon, where he talks about Mayan gods, which each god does, and their sigils, which sounds a lot like the Goetia spirits.” She noted that the Goetia Spirit Amon also appears to be included in Egyptian mythology as the sun god Amon Ra. And the Book of Judges, Chapter 10, verse 6, tells how the “Children of Israel” worshiped Baalim, Ashtaroth, “and the gods of Syria . . . and the gods of the children of Ammon.”

The Genius Of World Wizard Aleister Crowley
Among the many unsung heroes that walked this planet was the infamous Aleister Crowley whose brilliant accomplishments were successfully blackened by religious propaganda. Indeed, one can scour the Internet and search the libraries of the world and find lots of books filled with dark and twisted stories about Crowley’s evil links with the Devil. He was once so feared by the church that he was considered “The Wickedest Man In The World.” But if we toss the Christian smear material aside and get to the truth, we find a genius lurking there unlike anything the world has seen either before or since.

That Strange Friday The Thirteenth Myth
There is a peculiar myth in American culture, and I believe it carries in cultures around the world, that every thirteenth day of the month that falls on a Friday is a very unlucky day. In fact, there is mythology that marks the Number 13 as unlucky, and other tales claim Friday is the unluckiest day of the week. Ships used to delay departures on Fridays and lie over an extra day because sailors thought any vessel that left port on a Friday was doomed to a bad voyage. The reasons for these strange superstitions appear to be varied.

About Death And Extinction
If there is anything we all know, it is that every living thing appears to have a life span, and in the end, there occurs something that we call death. Death is defined in the American Heritage Dictionary as the end of life of an organism or cell. "In humans and animals, death is manifested by the permanent cessation of vital organic functions, including the absence of heartbeat, spontaneous breathing and brain activity. " For those of us who have watched a loved-one or pet die, the above description is quite accurate, except for the spiritual part of the death experience. It is a highly emotional experience, one in which the spirit of the individual occupying the body leaves it, never to return. Death is part of the life experience. Most of us don't want to think about it.

Navajo Skinwalkers and Shape Shifters
An article by Clyde Klukhohn involving Navajo witchcraft brought to mind our personal experiences with the Navajo during the winter in 1996 when my wife and I lived with a medicine man and his wife near the Four Corners. Klukhohn notes that the Navajo who practice skinwalking and shape shifting are using a form of black witchcraft that is unique to the Navajo. He said it has no resemblance to the “European variety” of black magic practiced among the witches. This writer lived with a practicing black witch on the Navajo reservation, and afterward lived with a practicing black magician for several years.

How The Celtic Holiday Samhain Became Halloween
Halloween is a contemporary version of an ancient Celtic holiday called Samhain, a celebration of the last harvest, the end of summer and for them, the first day of the New Year. The Celts celebrated the beginning of the New Year on November 1 because it was the mid-way point between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice. The Celts believed on the night before the New Year, the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. Samhain thus was a strange event that occurred on the night of October 31. The people believed it was a time that the spirits of the dead returned to earth.

That Strange Number 11
Students of numerology have been fascinated by the strange way the number 11 has been playing in world events, especially since 9-11 and the terrorist assault in Madrid on 3-11. There was an interesting piece floating around on the web that originated on the Anomalist site, by Ben Cal. In it, the writer notes that it may be one thing for the terrorists to plan their attacks to occur on significant days. But the number 11 comes up in so many strange ways it gives us the feeling that the events that manipulate our world are beyond our control.

Spiritual Highways In American Mythology
We noted an odd story about a number of Christians who think US Interstate 35, heading north from Texas through six states into Minnesota, is a “Highway of Holiness” mentioned in the Bible. We have also traveled the old Highway 666 that once ran north from Gallup, New Mexico, north through Colorado and Utah. Folks called it the Devil's Highway for obvious reasons. The numbers have been changed in recent years, for obvious political and religious reasons.

Amazing Design Found In The Flower Of Life Pattern
There is something in the occult world known as Sacred Geometry which is, in essence, a universal system of patterns found in the natural design of everything in the universe. Some say that these patterns are even found in music, light, and the way all things are made. Of all the beautiful patterns and designs found in Sacred Geometry, perhaps the most perfect and complete is the Flower of Life, a geometrical figure composed of multiple evenly-spaced, overlapping circles that form a flower-like pattern with a six-fold symmetry like a hexagon. Within this pattern, the center of each circle is on the circumference of six surrounding circles of the same diameter.

Haunted Houses Are Everywhere
The new rage among realtors in selling haunted houses may seem peculiar. But in this new somewhat insane world, people are demanding strange and exotic things. Why wouldn’t they be interested in owning and sharing a house with spirits of the past? What surprises me is that buyers are being goaded into paying extra to purchase a home with ghosts. In my years of reporting and because of the hobby my wife and I shared, of buying and restoring old homes, I can report from personal experience that most older homes are very likely haunted.

The Star People Living Among Us
Among the interesting myths to be found among the esoteric writings on the web is a story about "Star People," or aliens from other lives and other worlds choosing to visit this planet in human bodies. Is this not a reference to the arrival of the "elders" or the "old ones" as fortold by The Abba Father? For those who have not read the Abba Father dialogues on this site, he has explained that the old ones once lived among humanity as governors and supervisors . . . almost in the role of parents during the early stages of human evolution. Now he says the elders are returning to help us through a great transition. The author of the Crystal Links story suggests that "Star People" arrive in numbers when a cycle of time is about to end and another cycle is about to start. The story supports the Abba Father's revelation. Click For More

Using The Ouija Board
I read a recent story about how the Ouija board was a popular Christmas gift item last year. People experienced and not-so-experienced in the paranormal were warning that these boards can be dangerous when used by people who do not understand what they are working with, or how to use them properly. The board can be a useful tool but they are right, it is not a toy and it can open the door to unwelcome spirits. More

The Strange Island Of Palmyra
In this overpopulated and troubled world we live in, there is a popular dream of escaping to a tropical paradise island where we can live in quiet bliss, supping the juice of cocoa nuts, catching our daily meals in the water and just getting away from it all. A few people have actually tried this. And if they ended up on Palmyra Atoll in the heart of the South Pacific they quickly discovered that tropical island wasn’t where they wanted to be. The place is reportedly haunted or cursed. Click For Story

Is There A Superman?
Whether myth or based on fact, the super hero stories told throughout time seem to be a deep-rooted part of all human cultures. We seem to want to deny the possibility that we are mortals who, at best, can expect to experience only a fleeting moment in history. Could it be that the creation of myths about super humans is an attempt to portray ourselves as something more than we are? Or something we collectively know are supposed to be?
