When the term Psychic is mentioned, images of a smoky, dimly lit, Gypsy trailer containing a woman in all her robes and shawls promising to tell your future from a pack of cards or a crystal ball comes to mind. But this is no longer so. The psychic and spiritual world has many dedicated followers and many different terms that define the exact nature of each of the special gifts that their members hold.
A Psychic is a name that refers to a person who has extra sensory perception or paranormal powers. A psychic is a person who is believed to possess extra-sensory abilities, including: clairvoyance, psychometry and precognition. It should be noted that a psychic is able to "sense" the spiritual world on a purely material level and not be able to "tune in" to the spirit world, except by accident. Mediums are psychics but not all psychics are mediums.
There are many terms and definitions of each of the ‘special’ gifts that are said to fall within the Psychic label. To list just a few of the more common types;
Astrology
Is the term given to the reading of the stars. Many believe that our lives and personalities are governed by the position of the planets at the time of our births. The position of these planet and suns then affect the emotional state that we are in. It is believed that by studying the planetary patterns it is possible to forsee what lies ahead in our future.
Channelling
Channelling is more commonly known as Trance Mediumship. During the trance state the medium is said to have allowed the ‘spirit’ to take control of their body and more commonly speak through them, giving evidence of who they are and pass on their teachings and messages.
Telepathy
This is the term used to describe the ability to 'tune in' to the thoughts of others, or to inject your own thoughts into another's mind.
Clairvoyance
Is described as the psychic power that enables the person to see things that aren’t visiable to people that are not clairvoyant. This is the most commonly
Prerecognition
The skill of looking into the future and seeing events before they take place, often through the subconscious when dreaming.
Psychokinesis
The ability to use the power of the mind to influence matter- to move objects by thought, for example.
Numerology
Numerology is based on mathematics and is the study of numbers and the way that they reflect character tendencies. This is said to help you with your strengths and weaknesses and gives you an insight into the personality of others. It's believed that the origin of numerology is either with Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician (569-470 B.C) or even earlier still in the Jewish Kabbala.
The basis of numerology is eleven numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, and 22. You can reduce the numbers in your name or birth date down into these eleven numbers to make a numerology chart.
The four main types of Numerology readings are -
1. Your Life Path Number which is based on your birth date.
2. Your Expression Number which is based on the letters of your full name given at birth.
3. Your Soul Urge Number which is based on a reduction of the vowels in your full birth name.
4. Your Destiny Number which is based on a reduction of the consonants in your full birth name.
Tarot Cards
The Tarot Cards are used as a tool to allow you to tap into your own intuition. They allow you an alternatate view or new perspective into self understanding, spiritual growth, clarification of descisions and everyday problems. Many Tarot readers believe that the cards take on the energy of the person who touches them which is why the cards are insulated from others by wrapping them in silk or enclosing them in a box. They are only to be touched by the diviner and the person for whom the reading is done.
Palmistry
In palmistry it is believed that the overall shape and formation of the hands is one of the first clues to the character and destiny. Both hands are examined with one hand being the ‘birth hand’ showing the inherited qualities and the other reflects individuality, flexibility and potential. Depending on wether you are right or left handed determines which is your birth hand.
The square hand identifies the practical person, someone forceful, purposeful, and capable of achieving success. The tapering hand is likely to belong to an artist, a convivial, enthusiastic and sensitive soul. The spade-like hand appears to be in motion even at rest and denotes an energetic owner with need for positive actions. The pointed hand belongs to the idealist, the sometimes impractical lovers of beauty. The long hand, knotty at the joints, is that of a thinker, or philosopher. There are many definitions and terms used with the psychic and spiritual community. These are just a few of the more common types available. Even if you are a believer or not, why not have your ‘future’ read today.
In The Palm Of Your Hand
I am one of millions of people who spend 8 to 10 hours a day in front of a computer keyboard. Most of that time is spent on work, but some it is games, email and fun. Still, when my knuckles started swelling and my fingers began to tingle I feet the fear all typists, factory workers and artists know about. The fear of carpal tunnel syndrome happening to me; keeping me from working and causing me pain. Fortunately I found the device to help prevent carpal tunnel and give a good physics lesson at the same time.
Strengthen And Rehab
The Dyna-Flex Powerball is a hand held plastic orb with a gyroscope inside. Once started, it can ramp up to 13,000 RPM providing a lot of force for your hand and arm to handle. This strengthens the muscles of the wrist, fingers, triceps and biceps with its powerful resistance by creating up to 32 pounds of force. The pulsating feeling from gyroscope massages hand muscles and bends and flexes the wrist in such a way to provide relief from repetitive motion injuries. The exerciser also provides such superior strength and muscle tone it can prevent some of the injuries from occurring or repair them in their early stages. For executives or people trapped at their desk, the Powerball is a perfect workout, taking just minutes at a time and giving great benefit.
Power To The People
One of the most amazing features of the Dyna-Flex Powerball is the fact that its so simply designed anyone can use it, and it is entirely person- powered. The hard shell outer casing comes with a rubbed band attached around it to help the user hold on the ball once the energy is in motion. It starts with the flick of your thumb and then picks up as you rock the ball back and forth with the rhythm of the internal gyroscope. There are no batteries or power sources. All the energy is supplied by the user. If you are using it for rehabilitation and you want a lower rate of force just turn the ball slower. If you really want to rev it up, move your wrist a little faster and hold on as best you can. When you are finished with the exerciser, simply stop moving it and the gyroscope will wind down in a few seconds. No power, no motor, but lots of energy.
Fun With Physics
Aside from its main benefits as a strengthener and carpal tunnel rehab tool, the Dyna-Flex Powerball is also a walking science lesson. The mini-miracle exerciser is based on centripetal force. The energy from outside the ball causes the gyroscope to multiply the force by going on a circular path and a constant speed. As that energy builds the speed and force of the gyro continue generate force and resistance. For any youngster learning about gyros, force or Newtonian laws of physics and gravity the Powerball is a fun, active way to learn and will strengthen their arms too.
It has always been a catch-22. People who sit in front of computers all day and are the most at risk for repetitive motion symptoms are also the ones who don't have time to get up and exercise. The Dyna-Flex Powerball makes a healthy work habit an accessible reality.
