<p><strong>Author: <a title="Jonathan Farrell" href="authors/jonathan-farrell/494845" target="_blank">Jonathan Farrell</a></strong></p>
<p>In recent times within the area of paranormal research, nothing has divided skeptics and believers more than the ghost box. Myself, being what I would class as a skeptical believer, had to try this device out.</p>
<p>What is a ghost box?</p>
<p>Modern day ghost boxes are simply modified radios that have been customized to continually sweep the frequency ranges without stopping resulting in a mixture of white noise and tiny snippets of broadcasting radio stations being heard.<img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-408" style="border: 0pt none; margin: 8px 10px;" title="zzZZZCCCCccccc...." src="http://theatcoghost.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/charge.jpg" alt="" width="129" height="97" /> In EVP research it is often thought that a certain degree of background noise can help in the formation of disembodied voices coming through. In essence, existing noise can be manipulated to form words&#8230;..in theory anyway. The ghost box, tied in with the possibility of ethereal voices coming through on frequencies,  seems to provide the perfect background noise for this type of manipulation. You are also able to hear voices in real time, not just on playback so technically this device can be classed as ITC as well as EVP.</p>
<p>My experiences&#8230;..</p>
<p><span id="more-402"></span></p>
<p>After watching numerous videos of other peoples work with this tool, I was absolutely astounded and excited at the possibility that some of the voices heard were indeed some kind of sentient energy trying to communicate with us but as I will advise with any paranormal device, it has to be personally tested to make any kind of true judgement. A year ago, I bought a ghost box and have used and tested it extensively to this day. My first experiences were simply hearing my name being repeatedly said every time I run a session but I soon adopted the method of using control questions where there can only be one possible correct answer to anything I asked. I would ask for things to be repeated, time and time again I heard the correct answer.</p>
<p>Obviously, there is a chance that the answers we hear are coming through naturally on the radio at the exact moment in time we ask the question. Maybe a co incidence, but over time, these co incidences mount up making it, in my personal opinion, probable that something is indeed intelligently communicating with us. As always though, it cant be proven either way but surely co incidence can only go so far before you start to look at other possibilities.</p>
<p>One example of a control question I asked was for any possible entity identify what object I was holding in the air. For this experiment, i filmed it so that the object was seen.</p>
<p>The video evidence can be seen here <a title="Ghost Box EVP" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVIogsBSERA" target="_blank">Ghost Box EVP</a></p>
<p>The object I was holding was a pen. I only expected to hear the word pen being said to me, but in the video, you can even see the brand of pen I was holding which was a Sharpie. After asking what I was holding, the response I heard back was &#8220;Sharpie Pen&#8221;! Does this mean that something could indeed see what I was holding or does it mean that the words &#8220;Sharpie Pen&#8221; came through naturally on an ever changing radio at the exact moment I asked the question?</p>
<p>Do I believe?</p>
<p>Through many hours of research and constant exact and correct answers to questions I ask, I believe that something intelligent can communicate with us through EVP and the ghost box, but what it is, is another question. I still wont rule out any natural answers to these voices but I feel it is more probable that something that is self aware is talking to us.</p>
<p>Until proven either way, every possibility must remain open!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>By: <a title="Danny Fredricks's Articles" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/danny-fredricks/168891">Danny Fredricks</a></strong></p>
<p>Have you lived a past life? Do you really believe that past lives are even possible? And if so&#8230;&#8230;how do you prove to yourself that past lives are real? In this article we are going to take a quick and easy look at how you can prove that you&#8217;ve lived before with amazing ease&#8230;..even if you&#8217;ve never believed that the human spirit can continue on from life to life. (Trust me&#8230;..it does&#8230;..and so too has yours..:-)</p>
<p>Step #1: Look for Deja Vu Experiences</p>
<p>How many have you had? Have you seen a place in your minds eye before you&#8217;ve ever physically been there? Do you have a strong sense, pull or PASSION for a particular place (or even era in time) that defies logical explanation? Many past life experts, psychics and researchers will tell you that there are parts of your personality which ALWAYS remember&#8230;.and no matter how much time has passed, these experiences remain embedded in your spiritual unconscious. (so start here)</p>
<p>Step #2: Look at Your Dreams</p>
<p><span id="more-397"></span></p>
<p>Do you have precognitive dreams? What about dreams where ONE person in your present was actually ANOTHER person in your past? Many people believe that spiritual soulmates, for example&#8230;.travel from lifetime to lifetime together, and that a ROMANTIC interest in this life could be a sibling &#8211; or even a super close friend in another. As a matter of fact, some of the BEST psychotherapy these days is done by past life and regression therapists and psychics, clairvoyants and mediums who SPECIALIZE in past life readings. (many present day problems can be SOLVED by venturing into the dynamics of past life relationships!)</p>
<p>Step #3 Analzye Your Fears!</p>
<p>Becausew many of the things you fear most in this life&#8230;..you&#8217;ve most likely been traumatized by in a past one. Have an irrational fear of water? Ask yourself why! Are you afraid of intimacy or love but NEVER been hurt before in this life? The chances are&#8230;..your PAIN goes back a bit further than you think! Look at your fears and ask yourself why. It&#8217;s a powerful process that if you really focus on&#8230;can reveal much more insight, spiritual information and authentic enlightenment than you ever expect.</p>
<p>Lastly&#8230;put all of this together and either talk to an AUTHENTIC past life guru or therapist&#8230;..or see a past life psychic, clairivoyant or intuitive. I did this many years ago as a complete and utter skeptic&#8230;and what was revealed to me TRULY blew me away. (plus it helped solve a whole bunch of fears, phobias and worries that I could never &#8220;fix&#8221;&#8230;and this made them ALL go away in a hurry once I recognized they were PART of the spiritual fabric of my soul&#8230;NO joke..:-)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>By: <a title="Jakob Jelling's Articles" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/jakob-jelling/303177">Jakob Jelling</a></strong></p>
<p>According to legends, it is one of 9 sons of a dragon, which can distinguish between good and evil. It is sometimes included in the list of four noble animals, along with the Chinese dragon, phoenix and tortoise &#8211; instead of the tiger.</p>
<p>As a rule this animal is depicted having a few horns, green and blue scaly skin, hooves of a deer, the head of a dragon and a bear&#8217;s tail. In some aspects it resembles Western unicorns. Like the European unicorn, Chi Lin symbolizes longevity and prosperity. It is believed to live for at least 2000 years.</p>
<p><span id="more-391"></span></p>
<p>The Chinese believe that it is always lonely, and appears only during the reign of an outstanding ruler or when a great sage is born or dies; for instance, it was seen shortly before the birth and death of Confucius. It can only be seen by the chosen ones. It is considered a harbinger of happiness.</p>
<p>On his back, Qilin may have babies. Legends state that it brings extraordinary children from heaven. Like the stork in the European tradition, in China it brings a long-awaited heir to the happy parents.</p>
<p>It is also mentioned in connection with some important events in the history of China. For instance, five thousand years ago one Chinese emperor was sitting on the shore near the Yellow River, when he saw Qi Lin. The dirty water of the river turned crystal clear green. Chi Lin stood before the emperor, stomped on a rock three times, and spoke to the emperor in a voice similar to a temple bell. When Qilin turned to leave, the emperor saw magic signs on his back, and copied them. According to legends, this is how the first written language appeared in China.</p>
<p>The mention of this mythical animal goes back to the days of Confucius. Back then, it had a more peaceful appearance. When walking, it did not cause any harm even to insects (like the image of the Lamb in Christian mythology). When stepping on the grass it did not crush it. It fed on magic grasses. It could walk on water and fly. Carved on gravestones, it would protect from evil spirits, as well as accompany the dead to heaven. However, over time it changed its appearance and symbolism &#8211; once a symbol of peace and gentleness, it also acquired the features of power and strength.</p>
<p>In Feng Shui, Qi Lin symbolizes long life, celebration, magnificence, joy, wisdom, and famous children. It is a gentle, kind, and benevolent creature. It carries a mystical good omen. This feng shui talisman is believed to help facilitate the success of children. <a href="http://www.fengshuicrazy.com/misc-feng-shui-topics/the-mythical-chinese-unicorn-called-chi-lin.php">Chi Lin&#8217;s</a> images or statues can help women who wish to have a child. The main function of this talisman in feng shui is the elimination of negativity, and to attract wealth.</p>
<p>If you want to place this talisman in your home, remember that this charm should face toward the exit. You don&#8217;t need to activate it; however, it &#8220;likes&#8221; to listen to folk songs and fairy tales, and this is supposed to make it work harder for its owners.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Does the Ghost of a Serial Killer Still Walk the Halls of LaLaurie Mansion in New Orleans?</strong></p>
<p>By <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Marlene_Pardo" target="_blank">Marlene Pardo</a></p>
<p>The three-storied home at 1140 Royal Street (Rue Royale) in the French Quarter is presently for sale for a cool $2.9 million, but for many years it stood empty and ruined. It was only back during 1832 when it was just newly built for its owners, Dr. and Madame LaLaurie that it was as beautifully furnished as it is now.</p>
<p>For two years Delphine LaLaurie, a Creole socialite, hosted lavish soirees that were attended by all the prominent citizens in New Orleans; however all that changed on a spring afternoon on April 10th, 1834 when an old Negress cook set a fire in the kitchen. Neighbors rushed in to save valuables, including the slaves and what they found confirmed their suspicions beyond their worse expectation.</p>
<p><span id="more-380"></span></p>
<!-- wp_ad_camp_1 -->
<p>After leaving the kitchen which was located over the carriageway building across the courtyard, volunteer firemen and other neighbors entered the main house in search of other slaves. They finally found them in the<br />
attic area in a secret room, more than a dozen poor wretches, tortured, tormented and locked away where their screams could not be heard. Some were chained to a wall emaciated and close to death, a few were strapped to crudely made operating tables, and others squeezed into cages made for dogs. Human body parts were found in buckets.</p>
<p>The fire was extinguished, however the scandal that was ignited by an article published by the local newspaper, the <em>New Orleans Bee</em> telling of the conditions of the slaves and describing Madame LaLaurie as &#8220;the demon, in the shape of a woman&#8221; swept the city. Many remembered an event only a year ago when Delphine LaLaurie was seen by a neighbor whipping a young female slave, who in a frenzy to escape from her had fallen from a balcony and died. Rumors had it the child was secretly buried that night on the grounds of the home. It was not a difficult story to believe since by then the mistress of the house had a reputation for maltreatment of her slaves, which she justified as keeping them in control. Others wondered if this was Delphine&#8217;s way of exacting retribution for her mother, Madame Macarty, who was murdered on a Carrollton plantation during a slave uprising. At that time. a year before this incident, in response to reports of her ill treatment of the slaves, a judge ordered for them to be sold at auction and the LaLauries were fined, however relatives bought the slaves and sold them back to their mistress. Those outraged readers most probably wondered how many had been brought back to end up suffering such a horrible fate.</p>
<p>As the story circulated throughout New Orleans, the fury it stirred finally broke loose five days later and infuriated citizens of the Vieux Carre stormed the house and destroyed the interior. The LaLauries barely escaped with their lives and left the city, shortly thereafter setting sail for France, never to be seen again.</p>
<p>The house was not rebuilt until 1837, and even then it already had the reputation for being haunted. Ghostly apparitions, screams, moans and flickering lights finally drove the new owner out within three months of moving in, and he then rented it out to business owners. During the Civil War it was a Union headquarter and the stories of hauntings persisted, especially the sound of chains clanking coming from the old slave quarters. The house went through different incarnations, as a school, private apartments and by the 1920s it was a tenement where one occupant described seeing a man walking around carrying his head on his arm. Another apparition was that of a woman leaning out of a window.</p>
<p>By now the house was reputed to be the most haunted in New Orleans, and even though there were those that insinuated that many of the stories written about Madame LaLaurie and what had transpired on April 10th, 1834 were grossly exaggerated, making her a victim of yellow journalism, it is impossible to discount and explain the remains that workmen found while doing repairs to the house. From under the floorboards human skeletons were dug up, too near the surface to be part of a graveyard, and the bits of fabric and hair still found on the jumbled bones confirmed they belong to Negroes. Even more chilling was the fact that it seemed they were put in the earth during the early part of the 1800s. Some of the skulls had large holes in them, this and the fact that they were not buried in a trench confirmed this was not a mass burial due to an epidemic. Were these other victims of Delphine, secretly buried in shallow graves in the dead of night?</p>
<p>So who does walk the halls of LaLaurie Mansion? Is it Delphine LaLaurie paying penitence for her deeds, or is it her victims reliving their worse moments at her hands? Or maybe it&#8217;s both, and in that dark upstairs garret that&#8217;s been sealed away the victims are now allowed to exact their revenge in any way they see fit.</p>

<p>The Universe we live in is so fast paced now; all we seem to do is rush to eat, rush to sleep, rush when we wake, and then rush and hurry off to work. We just don&#8217;t seem to take the time to care about our physical well being or even sometimes take a minute to take a good look at ourselves in the mirror. It has been said that the face is the index of the mind, but somehow we fail to connect the fact that our ageing and dull faces are just another sign that our minds are just plain exhausted. It seems that it is only after our medical doctors tell us to slow down and try to take some time to get on some sort of a relaxation program, only then do we wake up to the fact that we have ignoredoverlooked the most critically important part of our body-our minds.</p>
<p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/yourastrallink" target="_blank">Astral projection</a> techniques can relax your mind and give you an out of this world experience, which will open your mind and rejuvenate you into a highly energetic individual. Let me take a few minutes of your time and, if you are new to out of body techniques and wondering about it, I will explain what I know about out of body techniques. Your mind is able to travel to many different places without you actually going anywhere at all. It could be a hot sweltering summer&#8217;s day and you could be lying in your living room, but in your mind you could be skiing down a cold snow covered ski slope thoroughly enjoying yourself. The result of this is that you feel so relaxed and calm that you are absolutely comfortable and not bothered by the stifling heat that surrounds you. This is exactly what astral projection can do for you.</p>
<p><span id="more-375"></span></p>
<p>If you would like to try this, it is very easy to do. You can very easily project yourself even if you are just a beginner. You can easily transform yourself to just about any where you can think of and you can feel the bliss of your life and you can repeat it over and over again. When you are able to experience projection on your first or second try you will be so excited to try this over again and again and you will feel satisfied with each and every experience.</p>
<p>I personally know several people who have tried <a href="http://tinyurl.com/yourastrallink" target="_blank">astral projection</a> techniques and just love the feeling they experience and would not give it up for anything. A dear friend of mine, Doug, was having anxiety related problems at work and at home and asked me if I knew where he could get himself into some kind of Yoga or meditation program to help him. I told him to try the astral projection techniques, and showed him which web site to go to, he was very skeptical in the beginning. He only doubted it for a short while though; once he had his initial experience with astral projection he was hooked, there was no going back for him. He told me that his experiences made him feel like a new person and he felt very confident that he could now face any type of problem.</p>
<p>I am confident that these astral projection techniques can help you with all your burdens and all life&#8217;s many irritations that creep into our life on a daily basis. You need not have to endure all this pain and frustration anymore because these astral projection techniques are such an easy way for anyone to transform their life into one of wonder and bliss.</p>

<p><strong>Author: <a title="Kathleen Falken" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/kathleen-falken/177156.htm">Kathleen Falken</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>NUMEROLOGY AND YOUR LIFE IN 2010.</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-378" title="It's All In The Numbers" src="http://theatcoghost.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/dice.png" alt="" width="209" height="131" />Your first name &#8211; especially your personal name that you chose to be known by &#8211; is all about your personal identity.</p>
<p>Here is how the numerical vibrations of your first name will effect your life in 2010!</p>
<p>Numerology has a great deal to do with the numeric value of the Alphabet and there are many legends and theories about how this came about.</p>
<p>The Alphabet itself was inspired by pictorial representations that recorded elaborate stories.</p>
<p>These full pictographs originally were abbreviated to form hieroglyphics with each symbol depicting a word. As more time elapsed &#8211; the glyphs were further reduced to represent individual sounds and then the consonants and vowels that we know today.<span id="more-367"></span></p>
<!-- wp_ad_camp_1 -->
<p>The modern alphabet that numerological systems are based on is derived from an earlier hieroglyphic system that is still used by Japanese and Chinese cultures.</p>
<p>Each letter also symbolizes a number. This has remained unchanged even though our speech patterns have evolved to make some sounds obsolete.</p>
<p>Each sound is thought to also have an esoteric spiritual implication with an essence that can be described as a number.</p>
<p>Even more meaning is given to the very first letter of the word. Here is a breakdown of the numerical vibrations of the letters in the alphabet according to ancient numerology systems that originated in Babylon and Egypt.</p>
<p><strong>In these systems personality was analyzed by the first letter of the name&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><strong>STEP ONE: Determine Your First Name Number!</strong></p>
<p>- A is the numerical equivalent of 1 and symbolizes confidence. When it is the first vowel in a name, the person tends to be bold. On the negative side, A can be critical of efforts of others.</p>
<p>- B is the numerical equivalent of 2 and represents our emotions. A person with a B first letter is friendly and a homebody. On the negative side, B can be self absorbed if not a bit greedy.</p>
<p>- C is the numerical equivalent of 3 and represents energy. C people are talented and get along well with others. Negatively, C people can be ruthless and cruel.</p>
<p>- D is the numerical equivalent of 4 and represents balance. It is very powerful and is the letter associated with business. When it is the first consonant in a name the person is very tired. On the negative side a D person can be stubborn.</p>
<p>- E is the second vowel in the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 5. It is a is warm hearted, loving and compassionate. The E can be unreliable and a bit flaky.</p>
<p>- F is the numerical equivalent of 6 and represents love. It is warm-hearted, compassionate, and easy going. When it is the first consonant in a name it carries the vibration of a nurturer. Negatively, F people can be known for their self-pity.</p>
<p>- G is the numerical equivalent of 7 and represents mysticism and religious experiences. This letter is imaginative, creative, and helpful. When it is the first consonant in a name, the bearers will tend to be loners. G&#8217;s don&#8217;t listen well to others.</p>
<!-- wp_ad_camp_1 -->
<p>- H is the numerical equivalent of 8 and represents creativity and power. This letter has a great deal of business talent. Negatively,it can be self absorbed and greedy.</p>
<p>- I is the third vowel of the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 9. It represents Law and as a general rule is sensitive, compassionate and humane. On the negative side people with I as the first letter in their name can be ill-tempered.</p>
<p>- J is the numerical equivalent of 1 and represents our aspirations. This letter is truthful, benevolent and intelligent. When it is the first consonant in a name the bearer will possess an unyielding desire not to give up and will therefore find success &#8211; eventually. Negatively, J can be lazy and lack direction.</p>
<p>- K is the numerical equivalent of 2 and represents a person that goes to extremes. K people are strong willed and influential. Negatively, K can be dissatisfied with life and take their discontent out on others.</p>
<p>- L is the numerical equivalent of 3 and represents action. It is charitable and well adjusted but can be somewhat accident prone.</p>
<p>- M is the numerical equivalent of 4 and represents spirituality. This letter has a great deal of self confidence and is therefore likely to achieve success. The drawback is that people with this can be workaholics.</p>
<p>- N is the numerical equivalent of 5 and represents imagination. It is intuitive and communicative, but negatively can be predisposed to jealousy.</p>
<p>- O is equates to the number 6. This letter represents patience,compentence and is particularly studious. The drawback of being an O is being a bit of a drama queen.</p>
<p>- P is the numerical equivalent of 7 and represents power. When it is the first consonant in a name the bearer is likely to think of spiritual matters. Negatively, P people can be selfish and flaky.</p>
<p>- Q is the numerical equivalent of 8 and represents originality. It symbolizes genius and the unknowable. Negatively, Q can be too self absorbed.</p>
<p>- R is the numerical equivalent of 9 and is tolerant and humane but has a tendency to become short tempered. When it is the first consonant in a name the bearer will often act as a diplomat.</p>
<p>- S is the numerical equivalent of 1 and represents beginnings. S people are very sexy. Negatively, S can act impulsively without concern for others.</p>
<p>- T is the numerical equivalent of 2 and represents growth. It is a restless letter which seeks answers to spiritual questions. Negatively, T is overly emotional, indecisive and is often easilyinfluenced by the opinions of others.</p>
<p>- U is the final true vowel in the alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 3. The U person is very lucky in all ways. Negatively, U can be selfish, greedy and indecisive.</p>
<p>- V is the numerical equivalent of 4 and represents construction. It is an industrious letter which is tireless and efficient. However, V people can also be ruthless.</p>
<p>- W is the numerical equivalent of 5 and represents self-expression. These first letter people are artistic. Negatively, W can be greedy and take too many risks.</p>
<p>- X is the numerical equivalent of 6 and represents sexuality. This letter is very sexy. Unfaithfulness is an unpleasant character trait as well.</p>
<p>- Y is the penultimate letter in our alphabet and is the numerical equivalent of 7. This number loves freedom and dislikes restraint of any kind. However Y can be indecisive and lazy.</p>
<p>- Z is the final letter in our alphabet and is the numericalequivalent of 8. It represents hope and peace. Negatively, Z firstletter people often act without thinking and without regard forothers.</p>
<p>As you can see this is quite a different way of looking at Name Numerology but it is also a very ancient way that proves very accurate.</p>
<p><strong>STEP TWO: Determine Your Compatibility with those of importance in your life:</strong></p>
<p>Relationship Compatibility for 2010 &#8211; What will your compatibility be with others? Here is how to find out&#8230;</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 1</p>
<p>Best: 1, 5, 7</p>
<p>Possible: 3, 9</p>
<p>Challenging: 8</p>
<p>Disaster: 2,4,6</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 2</p>
<p>Best: 2, 4, 8</p>
<p>Possible: 3, 6</p>
<p>Challenging: 9</p>
<p>Disaster: 1,5,7</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 3</p>
<p>Best: 3, 6, 9</p>
<p>Possible: 1, 2, 5</p>
<p>Challenging: (none, relationships are very black and white and uncompromising for this number)</p>
<p>Disaster: 4, 7,8</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 4</p>
<p>Best: 2,4,8</p>
<p>Possible: 6, 7</p>
<p>Challenging: (none)</p>
<p>Disaster: 1, 3, 5, 9</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 5</p>
<p>Best: 1, 5, 7</p>
<p>Possible: 3, 9</p>
<p>Challenging: 8</p>
<p>Disaster: 2, 4, 6</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 6</p>
<p>Best: 3, 6, 9</p>
<p>Possible: 2, 4, 8</p>
<p>Challenging: (none &#8211; not a number that has middle ground)</p>
<p>Disaster: 1, 5, 7</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 7</p>
<p>Best: 1, 5, 7</p>
<p>Possible: 4</p>
<p>Challenging: 9</p>
<p>Disaster: 2, 3, 6, 8</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 8</p>
<p>Best: 2, 4, 8</p>
<p>Possible: 6</p>
<p>Challenging: 1, 5</p>
<p>Disaster: 3, 7, 9</p>
<p>-&gt; Compatibilities for Number 9</p>
<p>Best: 3, 6, 9</p>
<p>Possible: 1, 5</p>
<p>Challenging: 2, 7</p>
<p>Disaster: 4, 8</p>
<p>As you can see some of the numbers have the capacity to get along with more numbers than others. The hardest number to get along with is 4, which has more incompatible numbers than the other numbers.</p>
<p>There are also many numbers (such as 6, 3 and 4) that simply have no middle ground &#8211; if there are challenges in a relationship it is next to impossible for them to work on them as they have instant likes and dislikes.</p>
<p><strong>STEP THREE: Your birth date of the Month:</strong></p>
<p>The day of the month that you were born on could be significant as it determines what type of job you might best be suited to do.</p>
<p>This is because in some folk forms of numerology the digits of the day you were born are said to symbolize the tools and talents that you were born with in life. So&#8230;</p>

<p>- Eleven. These individuals are sensitive to the needs to others. They make great teachers and counselors.</p>
<p>- Twelve. Those born on the twelfth of the month tend to be consultants or fix it type people. It is characteristic for them to finish up the undone projects of others. They are good at mediating and sales.</p>

<p>- Twenty-four. You are good at understanding what makes people tick and would be well suited to a career as a lawyer, paralegal, executive or psychologist.</p>
<p>- Twenty-five. If you were born on the twenty-fifth day of the month, there is a very spiritual side to your nature, which makes you a good advisor, counselor or healer.</p>
<p>- Twenty-six. If you are a hard worker with exceptional organizational skills and would excel in a supervisory or management capacity of any kind.</p>

<p>Or if you go looking for the Atco Ghost (which seems to be a part of the holiday around here) maybe you can ask him what he knows about the story.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Types of psychic readings</h2>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-353" style="margin: 2px 12px; border: 0px;" title="Psychic Readings" src="http://theatcoghost.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/psychic.jpg" alt="Psychic Readings" width="104" height="98" />Psychic reading is a method of foretelling a person’s future. Psychic reading is of many types, systems and methods. They are otherwise called as extra-sensory readings. Only a person with psychic abilities can offer the service. Many professional psychics specialize in one or more areas of psychic reading like, distance reading, psychometry, astrology, numerology, past-life readings, palm reading and many other methods. The readings don’t involve usage of any tools. Distant readings like phone readings, mail readings and internet readings are very popular.</p>
<p><strong>Aura reading:</strong></p>
<p>This involves interpretation and observation of auras around human bodies. Aura is said to be a set of colored outlines which emanates from the surface of a body. They differ according to shape, color, size and intensity. Through this type of psychic reading, a person’s individual characteristics can be revealed.</p>
<p><span id="more-348"></span></p>
<p><strong>Numerology:</strong></p>
<p>This reading is done taking the individual’s numeric values, like, letters in the names, date of birth, etc. Different numbers specify different meanings. In the past it was considered higher mathematics. It does not fall under psychic reading.</p>
<p><strong>Distant readings:</strong></p>
<p>This reading is conducted when the reader and client are far off from each other. It does not require meeting of both the parties. The client can obtain answers to his queries from the reader without having to talk to him.</p>
<p><strong>Tarot reading:</strong></p>
<p>The reader may not necessarily have psychic abilities to practice tarot reading. There is a wide variation angle to tarot reading. Each card is different from each other. The order in which they appear also makes a huge difference. A tarot deck contains 78 cards which are called as Tarot. They are used to unravel and predict love, careers, marriage, etc. Apart from these, it is used for esoteric, occult, divinatory and spiritual purposes. The meaning of tarot cards differs with the interpreter. This is why certain tarot readers are more popular than others.</p>
<p><strong>Psychometry readings:</strong></p>
<p>This enables the reader to gather information about events and people at close proximity. The method is used to locate missing persons.</p>
<p><strong>Palm reading:</strong></p>
<p>This is a popular method. It involves foretelling a person’s future by studying the shapes, lines, curves and wrinkles on his palm. This can be acquired through learning.</p>
<p><strong>Cartomancy Reading:</strong></p>
<p>This reading involves playing of cards. Cards are shuffled and laid out. The reader then interprets them. Here decks of playing cards are used.</p>
<p><strong>Astrology:</strong></p>
<p>This involves reading of a person and foretelling his future on his date of birth. It is an ancient art. It can be acquired through reading and by practice.</p>
<p><strong>Rune Reading:</strong></p>
<p>Runes are considered as magic. They are used by witches to cast spells on an individual or a group. They are practiced to know future events.</p>

<h4><strong>PARALLEL DIMENSION OR AFTERLIFE ?</strong></h4>
<p>The night porter at Dolphin Square, was prime for a chat. Hot nights in centre city London and just by the river made sleep impossible. The pool and restaurant had just closed and there was little to do except go out for the night and I chose an early night. We were joined by two of the security guards who were as interested in the tenants as we were in them in view of the insecurity being caused by a recent wave of vandalism and robbery in the area. The presence of Royal tenants had caused the whole security system to be re structured and powerful infra red cameras had been trained on every angle of the massive estate.</p>
<p><span id="more-321"></span></p>
<p>The conversation drifted into interesting aspects of their work and it was late enough to be a bit lax about the choice of subjects. One of the guards was a young ex Gulf War soldier who had been injured and despite a few surgical operations had been left visibly lame. I suspect he was no older than 25 and sporting the innocence of one taken away from the day to day realities of monotonous life to emerge sensitive and confused from his violent, unimagined experiences. I had reason to ask them about whether they had in fact ever seen anything during their night security history which bordered on the unexplained and perhaps mysterious. The whole estate was a labyrinth of corridors, underground passages, internal gardens and surrounding alleyways. It did not take the older one long to react as his eyes narrowed and proceeded to tell us about the mysterious figue with a long dark cloak which they had constantly followed on camera and which they had subsequently pursued physically each time, to no avail. It had seemed highly unlikely to me that they should refer to what I had in mind bearing in mind the whol spectrum of experiences which many night watchmen find themselves involved in. He appeared to have met me head on – right on the spot and I felt I knew what he was talking about and for which possibility I had asked the question. I had walked down to the lobby of my particular House (of which there were over a score on eight levels, making the famous condominium the largest block of apartments in Europea in the 30´s when it was built).</p>
<p><strong>The silent figure</strong></p>
<p>I was due to catch a flight at Gatwick at 09.00am and I was taking the Victoria train at around 06.00 am. It must have been around half an hour before that time when I walked down the stairs and entered the lobby. It was also then, that I saw the dark, silent cloaked figure with head pensively down glide past the corner of my eye. I could not detect features, but it was real enough. I turned to my right where the figure had disappeared to and which led to the short corridor, lifts and a swing door for the inner gardens of the estate. I wondered who it was since we knew most our neighbours and there had not been any acknowledgement which was a little unusual. I saw that the swing doors with slow return hinges appeared not to have moved nor had the lift sound betrayed a passenger or a characteristic opening or closing . My split second turn towards where the figure glided to would not have given it time to do any of these two essential thing and the matter left its mark in my mind for years to come. I told them what I had seen and the younger one was more than taken aback. I took them both to the lobby of the particular block which they examined in great detail and there appeared to be no doubt in relation to the particular cameras, that it was here that the figure had gone to from the outside. I refrain from mentioning the block in case contemporary tenants should find it diquieting. They had always seen the back of the figure move into this lobby and I had obviously seen the front but I realize now that it was quite faceless or had swept past too quickly for me to catch a glimpse of it. It was solid enough in an ethereal sort of way and it had slid past me only two metres away, leaving a distinct impression of a gliding movement. Only a year before, a horrendous murder perpetrated by two young delinquents had taken place on the fourth floor. Many tenants heard it, including myself, but it was attributed to a family quarrel and nobody went to the rescue. I had met the victim and I had remember having seen him once with a a very long dark trench coat. Although I will never be sure, I can say with some conviction that the figure measured up to his overall presence.</p>
<p>The nature of this and other manifestations always left grounds for potential explanations, but none ever proved conclusive enough. This is why I thought about it as elusive parapsychology. My comments had stunned the security guards who had at my instigation provided me with information which had been corroborated with a careful examination of the site. There were factors on both sides to show that the incidents had something in common and that the events actually took place and both recorded by camera and eyesight. However, short of dismissing it all as tricks of the imagination, it does not explain the camera frequent camera sighting, which had always led to the same block entrance and total loss of contact beyond the doors to the lobby. I had been the first to explain the sighting from within the lobby that I chanced to walk into at the precise moment of time that the spectre walked in.</p>
<p><strong>Strange things in store</strong></p>
<p>Not all of these strange occurences that shook my senses during the course of a long and eventful life, were of the ghostly variety, but strange they all were. I was walking down an eerie tree lined avenue late at night in Buffolo New York. I had just attended a lecture at the local university given by a professor friend with whose family I was staying. It was the 4th. July and the year for the moment evades me. I had done a British Royal Tour of Toronto and taken the opportunity to cross Niagara Falls and pop into Buffalo for a long awaited encounter. I really do not even know what happened during that long walk to the house. I remember the incandescent globe. It looked like a searchlight and it appeared to glide over the treetops, silently as if searching for something. My immediate reaction was that it was a helicopter as seen in films, looking for fugitives at night, but there was no sound. The next thought was – <strong>glider</strong>, but it was a very dark night and the light seemed to hover at some point. It could have been, but what it was doing at night so close to treetops, is another question. I did not have much time for futher thought. “Run!” shouted Steven. I needed little persuasion because of the inexplicable aspects of this sight. We had to pass underneath where this thing had floated over and beamed downwards so it was not a comforting prospect. Steven was miles more mature than I was and of an establishment breed that had earned him his position within the university and at least one major appointment in Belgrade where I had met him and his excellent wife. We met in London subsequently and the Buffalo trip was a sequel to the endless fun we had in the vicinity of the Capital. I have never had a chance to go over the incident with him since that peculiar night and neither of us had a clear idea of what it could have been apart from the fact that it looked ominous and out of context with the setting. For one reason or another, it did not add up. It was one of those things that had to be be ignored or spend hours on in circular argument, to arrive at the same starting point and further doubts. Years later, one curious fact came to light in the UFO sighting journals. The time and date coincided with the so called massive UFO sightings in Washington often called the “attack on the Capitol”. We may have been close to one of those mysterious lights that appeared to surround the citadel throughout the course of that night. Or perhaps a straggler or malfunctioning one – whichever, it is too coincidental to be dismissed. Whilst moving forward, across the treetops, it was not doing it hurriedly and like a soap bubble, seemed to hover at some point. Steven sensed danger from this strange movement which in hindsight appeared to be allied to a search and something that only a helicopter would do – except that if it had been one of these, we would have most certainly felt and heard it. Nothing had broken the splendid silence of that blissful night.</p>
<p><strong>A sighting and cosmic grafitti</strong></p>
<p>It was not to be the last time I had come across a mysterious airborne artefacts except that the second one occurred just off an unlikely town called Estepona, in the Costa del Sol, Spain, where the only unexpected thing that every happened was that you got robbed. My friend, an executive of a notoriously filthy, petrol refinery in the bay of Gibraltar, was glad to retire and breath the relatively fresher air of this beachside villa complex. We had been family friends for years and we looked forward to a good stretch on the beach the following day. The sky was clear and the stars twinkled with the intensity of a moonless night when suddenly, it flew overhead &#8211; silently like one of those shots in the star trek television saga. We both shouted “What´s that ?” and we had reason to do so for it was massive and salmon coloured with what appeared to be a wide variety of attachments underneath or even as it seemed to me, an inverted landscape. It was silent, swift and shapeless and it disappeared within seconds into the void and just over the sea. If it had been a meteorite, I suspect it would have been glowing with much greater intensity and would have hit whatever it did with a massive force and explosion, for it was too near the earth to be far from its point of impact. It could also have been an optical effect produced by something so massive that seen from ground level would have been translated as immediately overhead. The orangey glow could have been a reflection of the street lights if the surface had been shiny or highly reflective. Could it have been a brief outer space entry and exit into the earths´s atmosphere of a spacecraft ? It covered most of the retinal area leaving, just enough space to see the diffusion from light to dark of what was an irregular object and nothing like a fireball. Again – no sound. The colour sticks in my mind &#8211; salmon, soft and full of lighter and darker shapes within the surface – nothing like a spacecraft but more like a massive piece of illuminated earth with clumps of rocks stuck to it. But then it was so sudden and so unexpected that it was difficult to retain it mentally. This was not the case however with something else that happened only some 60 kilometres away and just within the Malaga airport complex.</p>
<p>I owned a carpark at the airport and I must say that it all started when we built stadium-like sun screens of corrugated iron which spanned some fifty feet. I cannot for the life of me explain it away and heaven knows I tried to get all and everyone interested in taking it seriously but neither relevant societies nor press were in the slightest bit inclined to come over and see for themselves. Our day manager and I spent hours trying to figure out the patterns in the dust that covered most of the cars in that very heavily contaminated part of the world with at least one of many illegal quarry only a few miles away. The designs were perfectly symmetrical and broadly speaking could be taken for photographic copies of the rings of Saturn. All were made up of dustless rings carved out on dusty surfaces. Some had wide intervals between them. Others closely packed and some huge ones covering both bonnets and windscreens. What gave us the creeps was that they followed from the large open surfaces to the other adjoining ones at different angles but when viewed from a few yards away, the complete pattern seemed to follow the line of vision as if it had been beamed from above with no visible distortion. Some were only dartboard affairs only a few centimetres across – others as large as a metre. Many appeared on the windscreens as if rubber suckers had been stamped carefully on the dust or perhaps even rubber stamps of concentric circles. Sometimes light brush marks on the window ones appeared to be bird wings showing outer feathers clearly stamped and in many cases associated with these images. These could have proved coincidental since we had seen them on other occasions when they images were not there except that there were many more than normal. The beauty of these images were sometimes so startling that we were loathe to wash them off , as the car owners came for them. As they disappeared we realised with distress that they were not being replaced. The experience would remain ours and of those people we showed them to. Whatever made them did so on one specific day and all we could possibly associate with the making was some sort of electromagnetic wave which somehow implanted magnetic properties in a set design depending on frequency. What I mean is that whatever dust lay on the magnetised areas was of a different polarity and joined the dust rights next to it like neighbouring bands. This made me think that perhaps the smaller tighter ones were of a higher frequency and the large, of a lower scale. Whatever sent out such mysterious electromagnetic wave blasts, may have perhaps been of a morse effect and thus creating a smaller or larger circle with wider or narrower rings depending on the what I can only call an electromagnetic intonation. Each pattern had to be a single burst if they were individual clearly marked patterns. Whatever, the possibility as someone suggested that they were caused by glass fibre strands from afar driven by air currents in a circular motion could not account for the perfection and the definition. The idea however appeared to offer some sort of explanation but the very large patterns were definitely outside the capability of such a mechanical possibility. Both Jack Holmes, the general manager and I together with the dozens of others who saw it were not only bewildered and awed by the apparitions, but a little concerned that perhaps something had come to the airport that was not in the order of ordinary things. I spoke to a German scientist during a conference in Paris I had attended and who shared the same hotel. He merely said -”I would be careful if I were you”. He seemed serious enough but then under the circumstances, short of being his speciality, I suppose it could have been a brush off or a gentle ticking off.</p>
<p><strong>Sounds from nowhere</strong></p>
<p>The patterns were not the only weird happenings in that unnatural enclosure. We had all spent time looking for non existant radios seemingly within the 14,000 square metre parking area. In carparks anything on – lights or radio could lead to battery rundowns and that was hard work best avoided, so chasing such things was a matter of duty. At times the crystal clear sounds of music (I cannot remember voices) filled the whole undercover areas, so I attributed this to the corrugated iron awnings which were somehow acting like antennaes and loudspeakers. On one occasion whilst standing at a window overlooking the whole compound in the dead of night, I heard breathing with the realistic whistling end of the start of a snore. I cannot explanit it better. I listened for a fair length of time and ventured to walk in the darkness of the complete compound surrounded by the sound. The whole roofing complex appeared to be breathing as I walked from section to section and the sound continued. If I was not terrified, it was because my logical sense of things, told me that if something breathed that loud it had to be a giant and I could not see one so it had to be some sort of auditory illusion. The sound of music made more sense but then perhaps someone had fallen asleep near a transmitter at the airport and my talented roofs did the rest. Even radar perhaps, so utilized at airports could have translated into an audible sound under those conditions, but then once again it could have been anything. The following however, was much more disturbing Paraspycological manifestions when not imbued with malice or threat, set my heart pounding, but I was more awed than afraid, fearing the worst but also proof which I could put to good use. Those experiences which were of potentially dark augur however, like the one I experienced just two years ago, in the same place, left me stressed and fearfully aprehensive.</p>
<p><strong>Frightening encounter with destiny</strong></p>
<p>There were at least three of us involved. Martin, Lynne his wife and I. As a animal rescuer of some ingenuity, I had a collection of some fifteen dogs on board at the best of times. These were kept in fenced compounds whilst I found and negotiated my new home. As loves of my life with a very close contact with each and every one of them, the Lynne the hired help, was an absolute necessity., Her husband Martin, our office manager on site who took over from Jack Holmes, made up the main basic trio with a variety of drivers which changed every now and then. My experience with dogs and the hundreds of things that can and often go wrong, made me very sensitive to any changes that heralded problems of health ahead. That fateful morning, I stood in front of the compound of four of what I called my wild pack. I heard rather than saw to start with, the rustle that reminded me of the sound that peacocks and turkeys make when they fan and stretch their tail feathers in display – a plastic scratching sound which I would find difficulty in putting across verbally. From the corner of my eye I then saw what appeared to be a massive black wing draped down over the side of the wall leading into the enclosure. I knew instinctively that it was not a real object. I dared not move and watched it briefly before raising my eyes to see if there was something above me terrifyingly big and wounded. The eye movement saw it dissolve instantly. For obvious reasons I associated it with a sign of death and perhaps an angel of death although I had never seen an image of that nature and the man with the scythe was my concept of such things. The crow black image burnt is way into the subconscious. I informed lynne and she told Martin. I asked them to put it into the day book in case something followed on.</p>
<p>That same night I went to the cinema and saw what appeared to be a good film but which was probably the worst thing I had ever seen in that category. It featured Meryl Streep, my favourite star and she acted out her role as a country and western singer within a group on the final closing night of a particularly old theatre. What I saw then left me cold and gave me an insight into psychic warnings. It appeared, from a film that I had read absolutely nothing about beforehand and which was incomprehensible from the start, that the whole situation was being monitored by an angel of death in the form of a woman who kept walking among them invisibly and who in one instance is shown with massive black wings to endorse her identity. I was shaken and alerted and took time to understand the peculiar plot. It looked initially as if the object of the removal by death was a younger member of the troupe, but who was eventually bypassed in favour of the oldest – a veteran octagenerian who had been silently in love with a slightly younger woman within the circle. As it turns out, the angel of death had allowed him to see and even converse with her and he had asked for an opportunity to declare and consummate his love for the other woman before bidding farewell. There follows a rejuvenation process which leads him to state his love and provoke the desired response. He waits in his private quarters blissfully at the height of his happiness and satisfaction awaiting his love and who turns up just as inspired, only to find him dead. Lynne and Martin were astounded and used to such things from me and they prepared for unplesant things to come. Again, diary entries were made and to my astonishment, whilst listening to the car radio that same day, a whole programme dedicated to wings, their symbolical meanings and evolution filled my ears. I knew that something terrible was about to happen associated with the dogs and Lynn was quite upset watching every dog and noting every change.</p>
<p><strong>The signs consolidate</strong></p>
<p>It poured the following day and left deepish puddles everywhere. I released the dogs in the mentioned compound and they run around like mad splashing water around. I watched them with great pleasure, beautiful as they were and having the time of their lives. The youngest, Mungi, suddenly flapped around on her back and what I took for devilry, turned into horror and alarm as she tried to get up but threshed around inexplicably with her mouth open as if in agony. I saw Martin rush towards me as I shouted for help whosaw what was happening and I picked up the stricken dog whose heart could almost be heard &#8211; such was the violence of its pounding. I knew I had seconds in which to steady the heart and I massaged Mungie with intensity hoping to get her out of the fit. I felt the heart stop and start and and then gallop again but fell short of stopping again, I sensed we were over the hill. I held her head to enable her to breathe better and massaged her back and chest in an effort to calm her down. She appeared to be coming out of the coma and the heart beat started to slow down. Mungi could not get up for a while and eventually when she tried, her back legs gave way. Two minutes later, dazed and subdued, she started to walk and then appeared to recover fully with that characteristic confused look looking around for someone to blame. She had just gone through the horizon but short of further developments had survived. Mungie was the youngest and strongest of all the dogs with a vitality that even today, four years later, she demonstrates to our sheer delight. She is a close to a red setter as a mix can be but essentially she is of jackal origin called a Podenco in Spain. They are very hardy wild dogs only recently domesticated.</p>
<p>Lynne, Martin and I discussed the event and begged the question. Was there something to follow in this psychic saga ? I refused to think, because anything, just anything that affected my dogs struck me with a knife as long and as sharp as the fear that came over me. I had another dog in another field with an ex nightwatch man who had been taken ill and would be away in hospital for some time and would never return. Canela, for that was her name, had been poorly for some time, reflecting the bad life she had had before I took her in. She was one of the family having saved her from scoundrels whose lead/rope had practically grown into her neck such was the abuse. Canela started to show signs of illness and I put her on a double dose of antibiotics as prescribed the vet. Miraculously, after a stint on the antibiotics and freshly cooked food, she suddenly appeared to have returned to her younger days, running around friskly as she had not done for many years. We could not believe it and stood before her awed at the sight. We had felt a sense of forebading at her rejuvenation in view of the film, but there had been no cause for alarm with respect to her health. Suddenly without warning when we took it fro granted that she was well on her way to perfect health, she started to stumble and I knew instinctively that death was near. My hackles rose as the scenes in the film raced in my mind. The second chance – the return to younger days and spirited behaviour was over. I had just weaned her off the choice food to get her back to more nutritious though less palatable dog food and as her head sunk lower into the ground I knew she was minutes away from her destiny. I felt her last breath with little comfort, but perhaps in some way, I knew that the last ten days of foreboding and fear were over. I knew with great saddness, that for the moment at least, fate had had its day and perhaps hopefully we had a long and contented space of time before us in unsolicited compensation.</p>
