I’m in the middle of a major re-design, so bear with me. While I’m getting Noumenal Net in order, why not head over to the Noumenal forums and check out the conversation?  Noumenal net will be up and running by this afternoon. Pay no attention to how it looks now.
And authors, you may have […]

Before scientists conceived of the periodic table, with its 116 elements, scientists taught that the earth and everything therein was made of four basic elements: water, air, fire and earth. Paracelsus, a fifteenth century alchemist, took the idea one step further, theorizing that each element was composed of nature spirits called elementals. These creatures, made […]

?Ghosts? have always been a mysterious and fear evoking topic for most of us.  Fear of the ?unknown? has affected every individual on this Earth since ages.  The Spiritual Science Research Foundation (SSRF) has conducted research into the subtle world for the past 20 years with the objective to bridge the gap between the known […]

I ran across this little announcement today in the Poughkeepsie Journal, about a class being taught in the East Fishkill Public Library called, “Brush up on your Tarot Skills”.

For collectors, I would recommend the larger […]

This was perhaps the most famous psychic occurrence to have my involvement. The date would have been about 1960, in St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic cemetery in Leytonstone, London.
A friend had told me that come darkness each night from the depths of the cemetery would glow a large cross, so for me as a curious schoolboy, […]

To see a world in a grain of sand, Heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand And eternity in an hour.
When William Blake spoke these prophetic words about infinity in the palm of your hand, and his reference to eternity, it sums up the palmists view of reincarnation, […]

Those mass-produced velveteen bags just won’t do - not for my tarot cards. Nor for my runes, stones, and other magickal goodies. But I can’t sew worth a damn, so I look for good quality bags at an economical price, which are lovingly hand-sewn. Not always easy to find - a quick google will dredge […]

I can’t smell White Shoulders without thinking of my childhood, the hours I spent playing in my grandmother’s chest of drawer, splashing myself with her perfume, trying on her scarves, putting too much of her rouge on my cheeks. Scent is a powerful mnemonic, capable of evoking strong memories of events from our past. […]
