Past... Present... Future

I think it is interesting that I spoke to a clairvoyant this morning at a "psychic fair". Although she did seem to understand me quite well she told me alot about my past. No, not a past life regression. My recent past like the last 3 years worth of personal history. Ummm I lived my past. I think I remember my recent past. My memory isn't that faulty. If I show up at a psychic fair I'm probably not a nonbeliever. Skeptic yes... nonbeliever no. Was it really necessary to tell me all about what I've gone through in the last little bit?! Apparently she thought so.

Just reminds me why the group I belong to needs to continue doing workshops to share our knowledge. The day was interesting though. But just made me totally laugh.

Haunted Hotel?

Recently my husband and I were trying to figure out where to go for vacation. Two great suggestions came up. We decided to do both. Thanks for the suggestions! One was to a purported haunted inn and they host investigations. The inn itself was just lovely. A couple are restoring an inn to a splendid period location. They have been working very hard. On arrival I sensed a hanging and chocking in a back area. The lady of the house explained on the tour that someone was hanged in the same area. She further explained that a woman was suffocated against a wall in the similar area just above where I was. I found this interesting. However, did I witness/document much else. No, unfortunately I did not. A young couple also staying there had a great anecdotal story in the morning but I did not personally experience very much that I can confirm.

However, in the afternoon of the first day I was taking baseline photos. I captured one picture that I'm inclusive about and yet intrigued by. I will refrain from saying that which I saw. I noticed it through the camera lens first. Now that I have the digital image I am still examining. I have shown the photo to a few friends who have pinpointed what I see. But I do not wish to sway opinion with my own. So I will simply ask... "What do you notice in this photograph?"

Archive from my previous blog

I will copy over a few of my more interesting posts from the past here for the sake of archiving.

On Sunday, October 5th, I attended a great workshop, "Orb: Vertices of Light". It was great to learn from some professionals in the field. An interesting theory was discussed of playing music to attract energy/orbs. Various classifications were presented. Sam
ple photographs were displayed. A great experience that I'm glad I was able to participate in thanks to a friend letting me know about the event.

The last few weekends we have had some interesting happenings. Strange apparitions on a door, spirit conversations, clinking sounds, names being stated, sensed locations with previously documented histories. It's been quite interesting.

Here is a small video on some of the equipment that I utilize.

Mini experiment:

I read an article in wikipedia about the possibility of orb photographs being caused by dust particles or moisture particles in the air reflecting off the lens and flash combinations inherent to digital cameras. I decided to conduct a mini-test of my own digital camera. The test?

Moisture experiment:
Date: August 29, 2007
Time: 11:38 PM
Room lighting: light from TV and lamp across room
Stimuli: Moisture in a spray bottle
Equipment: digital camera with flash
Procedure:
  1. Average wall photo taken with digital camera.
  2. Moisture sprayed on wall. Similar photograph taken.
  3. Moisture sprayed in air near wall. Similar photograph taken.
  4. Moisture sprayed directly in front of camera. Similar photograph taken.
Part II
Moisture experiment:
Date: August 29, 2007
Time: 12:00 AM (time given to allow moisture in air to evaporate from first part of experiment)
Room lighting: dark
Stimuli: Moisture in a spray bottle
Equipment: digital camera with flash
Procedure:

5. Average wall photo taken with digital camera.

6. Moisture sprayed on wall. Similar photograph taken.

7. Moisture sprayed in air near wall. Similar photograph taken.

8. Moisture sprayed directly in front of camera. Similar photograph taken.


My file with photographic results can be found here.



Oh and of course I have to archive my favorite photo here:
I simply love this one. Focus on the tree knot. It was one of my first photos that I took while out investigating with the paranormal group with which I associate.

Grand Opening So To Speak

Okay so Geocities is closing. So I'm going to begin moving my blog here. I enjoy sharing my adventures and exploration into the paranormal. Whether you are a believe or nonbeliever I simple ask for respect here and will give it in return. Positivity is always welcome here at my blog. In coming days I will be copying over archives from the past. And hopefully new resources will be posted as I continue to develop. Hope you enjoy your stay here.
