Dedicated individuals who actively pursue and engage the paranormal and supernatural world may do so through implementing a variety of different methods of detection. Where some may involve electronic devices such as meters and gauges which will reflect any changes within an immediate environment caused by what may be an anomaly. While others may use their natural abilities as psychics and mediums along with unscientific devices powered more by faith such as dowsing rods or crystals.
Individual preferences may vary and are exclusively governed by personal belief in what works.
Now for the record I am Shamanic in my beliefs. Which also involve my knowing on various advanced forms of ritualistic and Shamanic practices. Where the beauty of my belief is that it blends perfectly in with my paranormal and supernatural investigations and research.
I’ve been of my particular faith now for more than 40 years. So why wouldn’t I consider blending my spiritual knowledge when dealing with the paranormal especially should it ever involve interacting with any malevolent forces where sometimes what might be construed as a malevolent force may just prove itself misunderstood.
For this is where experience can come in handy in being able to tell the difference.
On rare occasions I might use a magickal implement while working with spirits. But I never rely on store bought items where instead I always hand craft and magically empower my own such as this power amulet which I call a “Shadow Amulet”.
This is one of my more stronger pieces of which I will not reveal the other side so that it may not be easily copied. For anything of a magickal nature must always be special and uniquely tuned to its owner and no one else. I will periodically craft special magickal items for people in need while reminding them that magick should never be abused or used for selfish purposes.
Some people might feel that magick has no place in the paranormal field. But as I see it, magick and spirits are both natural elements which blend well together.
It happened during a Rochester Pagan Pride event of several years ago that J. Burkhart aka Lord Archaeus, had spoken publicly about his views and beliefs on magick, Rochester Pagan Pride, and real Pagan unity.
It’s both dark and silent ten thirty at night and a little spooky when you’re standing alone out in a field. Though I can’t say it’s entirely dark with a plump looking half moon hanging high above the horizon within a star filled sky casting eerie glows amidst elongated silhouettes whose source and configuration remains hidden and thus may only be speculated.
