February Open Thread: Let's Get Freaky
Anya has been binging on UFO documentaries, so I’ve been hearing about all the evidence for anomalous phenomena recently. This month’s topic is:
Have you ever experienced something that suggests other lives, dimensions, realities?
I have been folloiwng reseerach on past lives for decades and recently wrote a preface for a special issue of the Journal of Humanistic Psychology on the topic. The American Psycholgical Association just published a book DEATH AS AN ALTERED STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS. which deals with past life reports, mediumship, near death experiences, and the like. My most recent weird experiences have been the appearace of "apports" in my apartment, objects that appear out of nowhere. They include crystals, an angel statuette, an Argentine drinking gourd, and a necklace with a Libra medallion on it, my "birth sign."
oh man... so many times. Some very pleasant experiences. Others much less. Once we were in the middle of the woods, and a friend of mine experienced something that looked like a scene from the Exorcist... lasted for hours. Scary as hell.
