Once, I thought all psychics and mediums were con artists. Now, I realize there are truly gifted individuals, but scam artists lurk out there as well. So, how do you figure out who’s playing you and who’s genuine? Consider the following: Cold psychic reading An observant individual can glean a great deal of information through [...]
This is the second of two posts on my response to the Nevada Ghost and Paranormal Series’ “Religion and the Paranormal: A Panel Discussion,” which featured an evangelical pastor. See My Rebuttal to the Evangelical Stance on After Death Communications. As I noted two blogs ago, I respect this pastor’s beliefs. Yet, from my own [...]
We are all psychic: Many of us just need to shake off the dust and hone our skills. Awareness remains key to honing your sixth sense. So much of intuition gets ignored merely because we won’t pay attention to it. Heed the nagging suspicion in your mind and the strange thought that pops into your [...]

See prior posts: ESP misconceptions, part 1 and ESP misconceptions, part 2. With ESP, you’ll enjoy riches On several occasions, Ken has asked me why the gifted psychics I know aren’t wealthy. He asks, “If they can see into the future, why don’t they find out what stocks to invest in. Wouldn’t they do this [...]
See my previous post: ESP misconceptions, part 1 Out of our innate abilities—sight, sound, touch, smell, taste and ESP—psychic sensitivity is the most subjective, and at least for me, inconsistent sense. This means when we receive messages—many that burst forth and last only a millisecond—we can easily misconstrue or discount them. Interpreting a message correctly [...]
What we don’t understand, we’re most likely to fear. Our prejudices against the Other World—whether spurred on by Hollywood horror movies or warnings from the pulpit—prevent us from experiencing productive, positive spirit encounters. Over the eight years that I’ve been involved in coordinating the Nevada Ghost and Paranormal Series, I’ve been fortunate to work with [...]
