Clairvoyance
Clairvoyance is literally "clear seeing” It’s the ability of a psychic or medium to see (in their minds eye) into the spirit world. Some psychics and mediums describe it as seeing pictures or movies, some claim the ability to see spirits as if they were right in front of them.
The ability may be very tightly related to the development of the "third eye" chakra in the center of the forehead. Chakras are energy centers in the human body.
Cryptid
A cryptid is an animal whose existence is not confirmed by science. The study of these creatures is known as cryptozoology. Those that study the existence of cryptids are called cryptozoologists. Cryptids have been sighted and documented for centuries. There are hundreds of creatures thought to be in existence today. Some of the more popular cryptids include, Bigfoot, the Lochness Monster, and Werewolves.
Familiar spirit
In European folklore and folk-belief of the Medieval and Early Modern periods, familiar spirits, sometimes referred to simply as familiars, were supernatural entities that were believed to assist witches and cunning folk in their practice of magic. According to the records of the time, they would appear in numerous guises, often as an animal, but also at times as a human or humanoid figure, and were described as "clearly defined, three-dimensional… forms, vivid with color and animated with movement and sound" by those alleging to have come into contact with them, unlike later descriptions of ghosts with their "smoky, undefined form[s]"
Ghost
Ghosts are spirits who have not crossed into the Light.
They are "earth bound" usually because they were so attached to the physical world either because of a sudden death, murder, or strong connection to something here in our world. They are not ready or choose not to cross.
All ghosts are spirits, not all spirits are ghosts.
Holistic Medicine
The term Holistic Medicine has become common among practitioners of Alternative and Complimentary Medicine to denote an approach to medicine and medical methodology that tries to treat the person as a whole. This approach assumes that disease is not made up of visible symptoms alone.
Holistic health is a non-medical philosophy of well-being that considers the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of life as closely interconnected and balanced. Advocates of the holistic health philosophy typically seek or use a wide variety of alternative practices, the most common of which include acupuncture, ayurveda, Siddha, chiropractic, naturopathy, yoga, aromatherapy, Cannabis cultivation and homeopathy.
Paranormal
Paranormal is a general term (coined ca. 1915–1920) that designates experiences that lie outside "the range of normal experience or scientific explanation" or that indicates phenomena that are understood to be outside of science's current ability to explain or measure.
Phrenology
Phreneology is a theory which claims to be able to determine character, personality traits, and criminality on the basis of the shape of the head (reading "bumps"). Developed by German physician Franz Joseph Gall around 1800, and very popular in the 19th century, it is now discredited as a pseudoscience.
Physiognomy
Physiognomy (Gk. physis, nature and gnosis, knowledge) is traditionally a folk science, based upon the idea that the study and judgement of a person's outer appearance, primarily the face, reflects their character or personality. The shortened form "physog" is also a slang word for "face". The term physiognomy is also used to refer to the general appearance of a person, object, or terrain, without reference to its underlying or scientific characteristics. This article will deal with the folk science.
Spirit Guides
They are spirits who help "or guide" you from the other side. Every person has a spiritual guide for life "the main guide" if you will. This guide is also called a guardian angel, and in most cases is a High being of light.
You can also have lesser guides throughout your life. We believe your guides are chosen by you before your incarnation on earth. They are not with your through your entire life time, but show up to help you in particular areas of your life as the lessons you have chosen begin to take place in your life.
Many lower guides will come into play when you are attempting to contact your higher guide, in order to help you establish a connection. Once the connection is made and strengthened over time, the lower guide has done her job and is no longer necessary.
Your higher guide or guardian angel exists on a plane with a much higher vibrational rate, and it is not easy for them to come through to you here on earth until you have "raised your own vibration."
Spirit Reading
A spirit reading is a psychic reading where the psychic medium is communicating with spirits. Also called a mediumship reading. Many mediums who use the term spirit reading also call themselves spiritual mediums.
Spiritual Healer
Spiritual healer, or psychic healer is a person who has the ability to "channel" healing energy. Psychic healers have also been called faith healers and hands-on-healers. The techniques vary, but they are all doing the same basic thing - channeling healing energy.
