Psychic Abilities and Definitions:

Alchemy - An occult science dedicated to the study of personal and external transformations. Alchemists were among the first to develop and use techniques like the Scientific Method and processes like distillation and sublimation. Their efforts formed many of the foundations of modern chemistry. The two most noted goals of medieval alchemists was the transmutation of base metals into gold, and the quest for the "Elixir of Life" , a potion of such remarkable curative properties that it could even cure the disease of aging.

Animal Communication - A more empathetic form of telepathy targeted at animals.

Ascension - Converting the body to pure living energy and retaining consciousness in this energy state.

Aura - A multi-layered energy shell that surrounds all living things. The Aura has many interesting properties including a substantial electrical and electromagnetic presence caused in part by friction of blood within the walls of the blood vessels and effects caused by the transmission of electrical nerve impulses through the body.

Astral Projection - (also called Out of Body Travel, Soul Travel or Psychic Projection): Temporarily separating the Astral body from the physical body while retaining consciousness and sensory awareness in the Astral state.

Astrology - "Study of the stars": a system of relating the positions and influences of the heavenly bodies to terrestrial events.

Automatic Writing - A specific method of channeling that allows the subconscious or another entity to take direct control of a limb for the purposes of communication.

Bilocation - A kind of partial teleport where a second material body is created at the target site while the primary body is not dematerialized at the starting point. Both bodies are controlled by a single consciousness.

Binaural Beats - A means of artificially inducing a specific brain wave frequency in a person by applying a different audio frequency in each ear to create a "Beat frequency" inside the brain. Binaural beats has been called "electronic meditation" or "Speed meditation" since it can help users reach specific brain wave patterns very quickly. Click the link to try them for yourself.

Biorhythms - Biorhythms work on the principle that your physical, emotional, and mental aptitudes each follow natural cycles that started at the moment of your birth. When a given attribute is in the positive area, you will perform better than average, and when the attribute is negative, you will generally perform worse than you normally would. By plotting the graphs of these three attributes, you can find days that are more favorable for certain types of activities.

Brain Waves - The frequency of electrical activity happening inside the brain. Brain waves are grouped into 4 main categories, each with their associated base state of consciousness: Beta (14-30 HZ), Alpha (8-13.9 Hz), Theta (4-7.9 Hz) and Delta (.1-3.9 Hz). Specific brain wave frequencies between 4.4-8.5 Hz tend to create interesting experiences and psychic manifestations perhaps because of a synergy and resonance with the earth's own electromagnetic field which vibrates within that frequency range.

Chakra - from the sanskrit word meaning "wheel", which describes the shape of the unique energy nodes within the human aura that effectively comprise "psychic organs" used to metabolize different types and frequencies of energy.
