Shaw Cable Interview Halloween Special 2012

Unexpected Surprise

          One might say that the best time to get paranormal activity is when you are not at all expecting it; It can be a pleasant surprise for the investigators on scene.  My friend Rob asked me to join him one evening as he was asked by a reporter at Shaw cable to get another investigator and help promote the local Calgary Ghost tours. If you are interested in it please contact Joanna (403) 472 1989 or by email at info@calgaryghosttours.com. Aside from talking about the ghost tours, the reporter also wanted us to describe what we do and why we do it. The reporter followed us to a location in which Rob and I had previously witnessed a full sized shadow figure standing over 6 feet tall. The reporter was asking his questions and we would answer as best as we could, all routine stuff really.  Rob was on camera explaining the area and showing the camera man a K2 meter and talking about it a little bit. Joanna and I were standing behind the camera man listening and watching as Rob did his interview.

            Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed some movement that drew my attention away from what we were doing. It was dark out but there was a backdrop of light that was enough for me to see the details of the foliage. I could see the individual plants and trees enough to notice this out of place movement. I stared in the distance watching what I thought I saw. Rob at this point was explaining to the reporter about the shadow figure we saw around a year ago at this spot. I tapped Joanna and told her to look where I was looking. I could not interrupt Rob at this point but kept my vigil on this spot. I could see something in the short distance between the trees; it stood roughly between 4.5 to 5 feet in height. I saw it peeking out from behind a tree. It did so a few times and then I saw it move to another tree, whatever it was, it was watching us. As soon as Rob was done I yelled at him to throw me his K2 and quickly but cautiously moved over to the spot. There was no more figure as I got closer but when I turned the K2 on, it was spiking full.  Whatever was there left enough of an energy signature that the K2 was maxed out. When I was moving over to the spot I was explaining to Rob and the camera man what I saw.

            Seeing the spike on the K2 clenched it. The reporter was thrilled saying “that could not have been scripted any better.” Whatever was curious about us was no longer there and the area was open enough that had it been a person we all should have seen them leave the site. Whatever I saw was just gone when I approached. It could have possibly been the same thing we saw a long time ago, but could even be a different one. All I can say is that I saw another shadow figure in the same place around the same time of year, all while a Shaw cable reporter was filming an interview with us, and also while Rob was talking about that same entity we saw before. If intelligent it could have been curious about us, or even why we were talking about it. I suppose we will never conclusively know. I agree with the reporter that the situation could not have even been scripted any better.

The Call of Tarot

            The oddest situation happened to me just a few days ago. Strange to think of such a thing as impactful as I had never had too much an interest in Tarot prior to this. I had been at home quite ill for a few days and was not out of the house at all. However, on this day while walking around a book store just to get some air, I had the strangest draw to the New Age section. I felt a pull to a specific set of Tarot cards. Just to reiterate and clarify, I had no interest in it before, but on this day I felt like I needed to get this specific set. It was a set that came with a book of instruction as well as back story. While reading through the book, one specific section caught my attention. It was saying that a common mistake made by people learning Tarot is that they just grab whatever deck and go, but that is a mistake because Tarot cards are a tool that use energy to give their readings and therefore your energies should be in tune with the deck. Perhaps this pull that I felt to the deck is the same time of synchronicity the author refers to.

This strange pull is not actually the odd part. Following my purchase of the deck, I pulled my wallet out of my jacket pocket as I entered my vehicle. This jacket I had just recently emptied out the pockets as I was putting it away for the winter. I also never keep change in my wallet, but as I drew it out, a toonie flew out. Not totally weird, but at the same time I took it as a lucky sign.  Just after I returned home, as my readers know I am on twitter, I checked my updates. I strangely enough had a new follower, a Tarot reader.  This made me start thinking now that it was a strange coincidence. I nonetheless dismissed it as nothing more than that. I sorted the new deck and found something odd, something I wondered if maybe it was a reading of its own. The deck had popped out of sort 2 cards; they were doubles which a Tarot deck does not have. I found 2 kings of Swords cards, but also found that upon those 2 cards popping out that the deck had the correct number of cards. It turns out that I was missing the knight of coins aka knight of discs card. So obviously I took it back to the store and got a new deck. Still feeling the same draw to the deck I got the replacement and it felt right to get the new deck, but could it be that the previous one was giving me a reading?

I have begun trying to learn and understand how Tarot works and trying to figure out what it could mean if anything, but one thing is for certain. Just enough happened with this new venture to peak my interest. Let’s see what this could mean. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but maybe it was a reading I was meant to find. After all, all things happen for a reason.

Paranormal and the Multiverse

            Life as we know it is finite, it begins, it ends, and it cycles. We all go through our day to day lives in this universe that we have such a limited understanding of. The Multiverse theory completely blows a hole in the way we look at everything. In short, as per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse “The multiverse (or meta-universe) is the hypothetical set of multiple possible universes (including the historical universe we consistently experience) that together comprise everything that exists and can exist: the entirety of space, time, matter, and energy as well as the physical laws and constants that describe them. The term was coined in 1895 by the American philosopher and psychologist William James. The various universes within the multiverse are sometimes called parallel universes. The structure of the multiverse, the nature of each universe within it and the relationship between the various constituent universes, depend on the specific multiverse hypothesis considered. Multiple universes have been hypothesized in cosmology, physics, astronomy, religion, philosophy, transpersonal psychology and fiction, particularly in science fiction and fantasy. In these contexts, parallel universes are also called "alternative universes", "quantum universes", "interpenetrating dimensions", "parallel dimensions", "parallel worlds", "alternative realities", "alternative timelines", and "dimensional planes," among others.”

            Now when considering some of life’s mysteries, Stone Henge, Bermuda Triangle, Black Holes etc. What if these areas had tears in the veils that separate the parallels from one another. Look at repeating paranormal activity. Like a replaying video tape, it is an entity unaware of you as it lives through it own life. What about introducing the idea that maybe that is not a spirit at all, but in fact maybe it is a tear in the veil of our known universe where you are seeing the activity within another dimension. Through many conversations with Brian Wilkerson who you can follow on twitter @theonewithcip we determined many ideas worth considering about this subject. He unified the paranormal and the multiverse into the term Paraverse. I have to admit the subject of the multiverse is huge, and mixing the concept of M-Theory and Paranormal research is very open. Many concepts may quickly be brought to a dead end while many others open up a whole other dimension of thoughts, pun intended.

            Originally this blog was an essays worth of writing, but instead of following that route, let’s open the floor. Why don’t all of you tell me what you think about this subject; Follow me on twitter @Vijayp1982 and or comment below.

Ghost Sickness

            An interesting idea popped into my head. This idea is a little more geared towards those who spend their time with paranormal investigation and research. Being a part of that world gives those involved a stronger connection to it more than those who keep away from it all together. By being more in tune with it, would it be safe to say that you can feel ill from being around it too much? I don’t mean like how a sensitive would feel the spirits feelings and emotions etc. I mean by you actually being around the spirit world so much, could you get sick?

            Think about the theory of ghosts having to draw energy to do major events. Though I believe that the stronger a spirit is aware of itself, the less it requires an external source for energy to manifest. I do not deny they must need some kind of sustenance, just like how we need food. So if you are constantly around the spirit world, you are around the spirits who are trying to draw that energy, and you are the most potent energy source they will have to draw from. If a spirit is depleting your energy, the energy you use for yourself, it should potentially have the ability to drain your source of healing. It would only make sense I suppose that it would deplete your immune system function.

            So what kind of risk could we then be at, upon each and every investigation where there is actual paranormal activity? This literally would mean that if true we are very much giving of ourselves to a point that could be a bit dangerous depending on how much we involve ourselves. Perhaps if you believe that this is true, it is a good notice to have caution when spending time with this world and always know yourself, know your own empowering beliefs, and always know how to engage your own defenses. When one is depleted, what better time could there be for a negative entity to wreak havoc on an unsuspecting person. Just like when a possession has occurred. It rarely starts as just a possession. The victim is first drained and depleted. They start by some event that causes them to become depressed, then a dark spirit uses that negative energy and starts to work on the victim causing them to become oppressed, and then when at the victim is at their weakest and they can fight no more, they become possessed.

            Take the time, before jumping into the spirit world feet first, to know who you are. Know yourself, your strengths, and your weaknesses. Know how to protect yourself from being drained and becoming ill from a way of life many of us love. Ghost sickness I feel is very real and can be a dangerous threat if unmanaged.

Did you feel that?

Can you picture that moment where you are by yourself, doing something common. Maybe you are listening to your IPod, watching TV, reading a book, or any various tasks you may do on a regular basis. Nothing seems out of the ordinary, but all of a sudden a wisp or cold breeze comes from nowhere.  Picture yourself looking around at first unsure, then walking over to check your vents to see if they are blowing cold air but finding them still. Wondering where that shift in the air came from. You are looking around but nothing that you can see has changed in the room you are in.

One scientific method that I think could relate to a paranormal circumstance as such is the theory of displacement. If you drop a rock in a glass of water, the water level rises because the rock takes up the space and displaces the water right. Well paranormal entities though invisible still have a substance that they are created from, though we may not fully understand what that is, it does make sense. How many reports have been mad where the involved person states that there was a shift in the air, something just felt different, and the room got colder. This could be related to the fact that the mass that takes up the space in the room displaces the air surrounding you, causing a breeze, and also drawing the warm air. Not saying that every time it happens there is a paranormal entity present, sometimes the air may just be shifting because someone on the other side of the house opens a door and shifts the air like a pressurized cabin having a window open. However in those cases where there is a potential supernatural happening, it makes so much sense.

This whole idea was honestly started because of my large Bouvier des Flanders dog. I was taking a shower, and I like the water quite hot. The bathroom obviously got steamed up so I always keep the door open. In the middle of my shower, surrounded by hot air, there was a shift in the air, I turned around and I saw my dog entering the room. It just clicked, that one mass taking up air space felt one way, and then when another mass entered the room, the air displaced. The warm air being so much thicker it was much more noticeable. It got me thinking that as a paranormal entity would have some kind of mass, it would explain that same shift in the air when they are attempting to manifest. The room shifts because another mass is entering the air space. Some may disagree, but I think that it makes perfect sense. I would love to hear other opinions.
