  • Paranormal Beliefs: Using Survey Trends from the USA to Suggest a New Area of Research in Asia
    Asian Journal for Public Opinion Research - ISSN 2288-6168 (Online) 279 Vol. 2 No.4 August 2015: 279-306 http://dx.doi.org/10.15206/ajpor.2015.2.4.279 Paranormal Beliefs: Using Survey Trends from the USA to Suggest a New Area of Research in Asia Jibum Kim1 Sungkyunkwan University, Republic of Korea Cory Wang Nick Nuñez NORC at the University of Chicago, USA Sori Kim Sungkyunkwan University, Republic of Korea Tom W. Smith NORC at the University of Chicago, USA Neha Sahgal Pew Research Center, USA Abstract Americans continue to have beliefs in the paranormal, for example in UFOs, ghosts, haunted houses, and clairvoyance. Yet, to date there has not been a systematic gathering of data on popular beliefs about the paranormal, and the question of whether or not there is a convincing trend in beliefs about the paranormal remains to be explored. Public opinion polling on paranormal beliefs shows that these beliefs have remained stable over time, and in some cases have in fact increased. Beliefs in ghosts (25% in 1990 to 32% in 2005) and haunted houses (29% in 1990, 37% in 2001) have all increased while beliefs in clairvoyance (26% in 1990 and 2005) and astrology as scientific (31% in 2006, 32% in 2014) have remained stable. Belief in UFOs (50%) is highest among all paranormal beliefs. Our findings show that people continue to hold beliefs about the paranormal despite their lack of grounding in science or religion. Key Words: Paranormal beliefs, ghosts, astrology, UFOs, clairvoyance 1 All correspondence concerning this article should be addressed to Jibum Kim at Department of Sociology, Sungkyunkwan University, 25-2 Sungkyunkwan-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, 110-745, Republic of Korea or by email at [email protected].

ZA IN Course X-P RECTIFYING THE HOROSCOPE Copyright, 193+ by Elbert B enjamine Serial No. 117 TH E CHURCH OF LIG H T Box 1525, Los Angeles 53, California Checking the Rectified Chart For Accuracy The birth-chart constants of 30 different vocations are given in the reference book H ow to Select a Vocation. The birth-chart and progressed constants of 20 different events are set forth in the reference book W hen and W hat Events W ill Happen. The birth-chart and progressed constants of 160 different diseases are given in Course X V I, Stellar Healing. Other birth-chart and progressed constants are given in addi­ tional C. of L. Astrological Reports. If the chart is correct it will have not only a major pro­ gressed aspect to the ruler of the house mapping the depart­ ment of life affected by the event, and the major progressed constants of the event — often involving the rulers of several houses — at the time the event occurs, but as an additional check, the major progressed aspect indicating the event in each case must be reenforced by a minor progressed aspect and released by a transit aspect. Both the minor progressed aspect and the transit aspect must be made to one of the four ter­ minals of this major progressed aspect. If the ruler of the house mapping the department of life affected by the major progressed aspect, and each of the other major progressed constants, are not thus reenforced by a minor progressed aspect and released by a transit aspect at the time of the event, the house positions of the chart are not correct.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Quidditas by an authorized editor of BYU ScholarsArchive. For more information, please contact [email protected], [email protected]. The Zodiac Man in Medieval Medical Astrology by Charles Clark University of Colorado A naked male figure was a familiar illustration in many medieval and Renaissance manuscripts. Standing with his legs and arms slightly spread, the twelve images or names of the zodiac were superimposed on his body, from his head (Aries) to his feet (Pisces). Used as a quick reference by physicians, barber-surgeons, and even laymen, the figure indicated the part of the body which was "ruled" by a specific sign of the zodiac. Once the correct sign was determined for the particular part of the body, the proper time for surgery, bloodletting, administration of medication, or even the cutting of hair and nails could be found. This depended, above all, upon the position of the moon in the heavens, since it was a medieval commonplace attributed to the astronomer Ptolemy (ca. 150 A.D.) that one touched neither with iron nor with medication the part of the body in whose zodical sign the moon was at that particular moment.

    FREE MINI GUIDE FROM ARIES TO YOD, A GLOSSARY OF ZODIAC TERMS BY STEPHEN WINTERS A ARIES The first sign of the zodiac, symbolized by the Ram and of the element of fire.

Planets in aspect to each other work in harmony with good aspects, or create tension with difficult aspects. ASTEROIDS Minor planets, mostly found between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Some of these, such as Juno, Pallas and Vesta, are used by astrologers to ‘fine tune’ a natal chart. AXIS The polarity of the MC/IC and the Ascendant/Descendant. These angles are the main areas of life - career and home, and personality and relationships. Planets placed at these angles have extra power in the chart. B BENEFIC A planet or aspect that is beneficial - Venus and Jupiter are said to be beneficial planets and the sextile and trine are beneficial aspects. BIRTH DATE The starting point of astrology, whether it is the birth of an event or a person. A date is needed to fix the chart in time and space.

  • Stellium Handbook Part
    2 Donna Cunningham’s Books on the Outer Planets If you’re dealing with a stellium that contains one or more outer planets, these ebooks will help you understand their role in your chart and explore ways to change difficult patterns they represent. Since The Stellium Handbook can’t cover them in the depth they deserve, you’ll gain a greater perspective through these ebooks that devote entire chapters to the meanings of Uranus, Neptune, or Pluto in a variety of contexts. The Outer Planets and Inner Life volumes are $15 each if purchased separately, or $35 for all three—a $10 savings. To order, go to PayPal.com and tell them which books you want, Donna’s email address ([email protected]), and the amount. The ebooks arrive on separate emails. If you want them sent to an email address other than the one you used, let her know. The Outer Planets and Inner Life, V.1: The Outer Planets as Career Indicators. If your stellium has outer planets in the career houses (2nd, 6th, or 10th), or if it relates to your chosen career, this book can give you helpful insights. There’s an otherworldly element when the outer planets are career markers, a sense of serving a greater purpose in human history. Each chapter of this e-book explores one of these planets in depth. See an excerpt here. The Outer Planets and Inner Life, v.2: Outer Planet Aspects to Venus and Mars. Learn about the love lives of people who have the outer planets woven in with the primary relationship planets, Venus and Mars, or in the relationship houses—the 7th, 8th, and 5th.

  • Michael Baigent from the Omens of Babylon
    Celestial correspondence: modern invention or Egyptian epiphany? by Judy Hall Downloaded from www.astrozero.co.uk This is version 1.0 of the document (created 5 July 2005); given both the antiquity and the sheer scope of its subject-matter, it is inevitable that there will be many suggestions for improvement which readers may want to make. The author invites all such comments, which can be forwarded to her via the above website.
