Sure. :) I was trying not to hijack the thread, but I'll just put the list here and that way anyone can have it. Keep in mind, these aren't all collections of stories, some of them are research topics, but none of them that I've browsed through look like bad reads. The ones I have read I've tried to note.

Iroquois Supernatural: Talking Animals and Medicine People - Michael Bastine, Mason Winfield - most closely related to thread topic

Life After Life - Raymond Moody - Very good intro to Near Death Experience research

Reunions: Visionary Encounters with Departed Loved Ones - Raymond Moody

Journey of Souls - Michael Newton - Read this one, it was great, changed my views on reincarnation

The Day Satan Called - Bill Scott

Hunt for the Skinwalker - Colm Kelleher, George Knapp - read parts of, need to finish

The Vengeful Djinn - Rosemary Ellen Guiley - I've read this one, it's really good too, has a large "slow" section in the middle that quotes the Q'uran a lot, but some good creepy Djinn stories.

The Djinn Connection - Rosemary Ellen Guiley

Ghost Culture: Theories, Context, and Scientific Practice - John Sabol

Zones of Strangeness - Peter A. McCue

Lost Secrets of Maya Technology - James O'Kon

The Mythology of Supernatural - Nathan Robert Brown - this one might sound cheesy, but I've read a book on world mythology by the same author, and apparently the writers of the show did their research

Holy Ghosts: Or How a (Not-So) Good Catholic Boy Became a Believer in Things That Go Bump in the Night - Gary Jansen

u/veggiesama · 18 pointsr/atheism

Martin Gardner has a fascinating chapter in his book Fads and Fallacies in the Name of Science that exposes the history and techniques of dowsing. Many hucksters and charlatans, across all cultures, have practiced this pseudoscience of locating water and gold for centuries.

Pseudoscience occupies this weird area between "supernatural" and "scientific." It uses words and descriptions that sound scientific, but actually purport supernatural claims. Instead of auras and demons, modern pseudoscience incorrectly borrows terms like "quantum dynamics" and "electromagnetic fields" to explain their unsubstantiated claims.

Don't be fooled--always remain skeptical in the face of these shenanigans!

every one is affected, but not everyone notices.

It requires changing the timeline because memetic magic changes reality so that things always have been as the magician decides.

Examples would be the creation of coloured comets, and comets doing acrobatics, or meteors of a certain color hitting defined locations (i'm describing a few of last year's memetic actions when an anon was showing off). This can only work if the comets always were going to exist. so that's retrochronal, working with a living timeline.

Harder for the opponents (the moloch worshippers) to disrupt, since their occult magicks are limited to fitting within the timestream. The material world was given to be ruled by satan, but time wasn't.

This is effectively an aspect of the ongoing spiritual war, with one lot looking for world domination and the other lot looking to shift the world into another level of reality.

u/chewsyourownadv · 9 pointsr/occult

Do's:

  • Get into ceremonial technique, if you haven't already.

  • Consider working with something "easier" first; /u/raisondecalcul recommended Seven Spheres, and I'd recommend Ashan Chassan's Gateways Through Stone and Circle as well. Even if you don't work with them, at least consider reading them, as the do provide some insight into this sort of working.

  • Give some serious thought as to why you want to do this. Write it down, revisit and revise, and argue with yourself while prepping. Know what it is you're trying to find or do.

    Do not's:

  • Don't undertake a Goetic operation on a whim. Prepare for it according to the text.

  • Don't take any of the text for granted; don't skip straight to the "fun stuff." Read the whole damned thing, do the prep work, use the recommended materials. It's an initiatory text.

  • Don't break the rules until you've done several operations according to the rules with success.

  • Don't worry about being a satanist. If you wish to find out what is needed, read the book. For starters, it is intended to leverage one's relationship with divinity. Jewish mythology and mysticism figure heavily into this, and you probably won't find yourself talking to the Christian notion of Satan in order to establish a relationship with whatever is evoked.

The Key to Solomon's Key is a fairly digestible intro.

u/starkeffect · 7 pointsr/quantum

I'd point out the numerous conceptual errors you showed in that last comment (eg. according to special relativity, photons don't have mass, because they move at the speed of light), but I'm clearly wasting my time here.

You do you, but don't expect any professional physicist to take you seriously with the attitude you've presented here.

I'll leave with a book recommendation. Don't worry, it doesn't have any math.

u/ryanmercer · 6 pointsr/occult

I'm 31. Went to preschool and half of kindergarten at a private Christian school, me and mom went to church a few years past that but dad never did. My father developed cancer and started going to churches, died 12 days before my 13th birthday when we'd found a Methodist church we were regularly attending (this is in 98).

In 1996 The Craft had come out and as soon as it was out on VHS a friend and I had got it rented for us and watched it. Wow! We'd never even thought to think there was anything remotely like that. Having been online since 1994 we quickly Lycos, Infoseek and AltaVista to find 'witch' sites. Found terms like "book of shadows" and what not. We'd print out interesting stuff and hide it in our rooms. Before dad died either my parents or his parents found one of our caches and thought we were into devil worship. We kept watching the movie but being good boys stopped pursuing the stuff online.

Dad dies. Fucks me up. The rest of 7th grade we both throw ourselves into researching Wicca and similar revival pagan traditions. By 8th grade we are finding books in bookstores like Waldenbooks. We've grown to three guys and we are pooling our money to buy books, voting on which one we buy next. We stash them all in a samsonite hard plastic briefcase that was my dad's that locks when we aren't reading any of the volumes. We are cutting our teeth on a lot of Scott Cunningham, Silver Ravenwolf, some Rune books, we had The 21 Lessons of Merlyn by Douglas Monroe. We've found several webrings with online BoS that we frequent, the original friend I got involved with it all with has 3 acres doing a U around his house and in one of the fields a natural little tree grove is there and we clear the inside of it out and use it to read and discuss things and slip out at night and either do stuff in his barn or there depending on the weather.

Once we start driving we find a little new age bookstore here. They probably have a hundred or so titles at any time, classes, speakers, dozens of dried herbs, candles, gemstones, they do various readings etc. We begin to frequent it with regularity. We've found more people and all gone down our own paths. The original friend is hardcore down the shaman/neo-druid path, the other one is more into scrying and the medicinal properties of herbs.

Around 20 I petition a Masonic Lodge, being a fourth generation Freemason. Dissecting the degrees introduces me far better to ceremonial Magick than any exploration before. By this point I've also studied all the world's major religions except Islam, hitting that 4-5 years later as I realized I'd left a pretty big hole in my major religion study.

I still pursue various traditions. I'm completely fine borrowing from this tradition and that tradition, trying something from this path and that path. I also like to find out quirky things like Geoff Gray-Cobb's The miracle of new avatar power. Anytime I find something that no longer seems to be widely in use I try to add any documentation of that tradition that I can find (for a reasonable price) to my collection of books.

u/that_one_dude · 5 pointsr/AstralProjection

This is from a book that I obtained a couple of years ago that started my AP journey. I have yet to have a successful projection but that doesn't mean that it can't help anyone else in their experiences. The book is called "The Miracle of New Avatar Power" and if anyone would like any help obtaining a copy please feel free to pm me.

u/BlueCollar · 5 pointsr/occult

It's called The Key to Solomon's Key. I just read it not that long ago, and it's quite interesting. It enlightened me to many things I was always curious about Freemasonry.

u/BizarroMork · 5 pointsr/C_S_T

Much respect to you for coming w an open heart w real questions. You will find a great deal of insight and compassion here.

As stated above, this constant info-bombardment is horrible for the human psyche - whether it's of the "red or blue" pill variety. At a certain point, one comes to realize that "ultimate understanding" is just another fiction - as a singular human one can never "have it all figured out." There is just too much goddamn information, most of it conflicting (by design or not; humans love complexity).

That said, "the end of any and all beliefs" can be an incredibly sublime place to be. Once you've microscopically examined all of yr beliefs and the why's and how's of their impact/tyranny within you, one can begin the process of discovering what one truly, actually believes. And that might end up being something completely unexpected. But no one but you can decide what that something is.

I hear you on the ADHD thing; I was prob the same when I was a kid but that was in the 70s and they just called us fucking weirdos and picked us last for kickball. We didn't get all the sweet medical meth. The fact that you've avoided being medicated is a wonderful thing in this current era.

So, not sure if this answers anything but learn to trust yrself - you do in fact exist in a beautiful and terrifying universe of amazing potential. Go with yr gut, trust yr better instincts, and practice mindfulness. You might also enjoy this book for a variety of reasons.

Good luck; you have friends and allies.

u/clow_reed · 5 pointsr/Tarots

That's absolutely not disrespectful!

Now, I didn't come from that viewpoint; I came from the esoteric viewpoint. But that doesn't mean others' views are less or more valid because of that. There's many reasons why we come to the Tarot and other divination techniques. At the root of them all, is the want to help people.

I would believe, as long as you do not misrepresent yourself, and explain how you read, it would not be disrespectful. Now, offensive... There's so many people, that you will not any choice someone doesn't find "offensive". Even not making a choice (which is usually a choice) can be viewed as "offensive". So for those people, well,... eloquently, fuck them.

I would recommend a deck, either the venerable Rider-Waite-Smith (loads of Christian symbolism). If you're into learning and research how the deck works, RWS is exceptionally cited and a perfect teaching instrument. It's also the deck that everybody has either seen or knows.

Or I would try out the Jungian Tarot. If you are familiar with Carl Jung, this seems to be a deck working with his researched archetypes in psychology. This may be more in the direction of what you want.

Or you could try Osho Zen tarot. It's technically a tarot deck, but acts like an oracle deck. It's weird, but scarily effective. But it delves into the human condition like nothing I've ever seen.

u/ThisICannotForgive · 5 pointsr/UnresolvedMysteries

Mystery airships was a series of UFO sightings in the US between 1896 and 1897, making it the first massive UFO appearance in recorded history. A similar series of events took place (also in the US) between 1909 and 1912.

The UFOs sighted in 1896-97 closely resembled airships (hence the name) but vastly outperformed all airships built to date, including the Zeppelin LZ1 which was launched in 1900, starting the "Golden Age" of airships. Several individuals claimed to have build these highly advanced airships but no evidence was published after 1897.

In 1909-12, a similar wave ("flap") of UFOs was seen in the US, only this time it were fixed-wing aircraft instead of airships. Appearing in massive numbers in those years, they very similarly disappeared without a trace after 1912.

The official sources have dismissed both events as mass hysteria fueled by hoaxes and falsely interpreted natural phenomena.

John Keel in his UFOs: Operation Trojan Horse (1970) argues that the mystery airships were, in fact, not of extraterrestrial origin but rather, of the "ultraterrestrial", i.e. built by an very advanced civilization living on Earth alongside humanity (though they might be humans, too, only far ahead of the mainstream science). He also ties the UFO sightings to many unexplained supernatural phenomena.

u/arsadraoi · 5 pointsr/occult

Skinner and Rankine do some great translations of traditional grimoires.
The Goetia of Dr Rudd might be right up your alley if Goetia is your interest. It is a great translation of multiple manuscripts that often get lumped together under the title of "goetia."

I also recommend Techniques of Graeco-Egyptian Magic. While it isn't actually a grimoire it is an eye opening work that breaks down how to understand older grimoires (specifically the Greek Magical Papyri).

I have heard great things about Jake Straton-Kent's work but only just barely cracked one of his open so can't actually confidently recommend it yet.

And if you want a book that has both Grimoire and in-depth working of that grimoire with advice and experiences of the author I 'm happy to recommend Gateways Through Stone and Circle, Ceremonial Magic & The Power of Evocation, and [The Key to Solomon's Key] (https://www.amazon.com/Key-Solomons-This-Symbol-Masonry/dp/1888729287/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1483818437&sr=1-1&keywords=key+to+solomons+key), all of which are not the best translations but great working guides (and come with softer price tags to boot)

If the figure at the end of your bed is vantablack then it is probably a djinn shadow being (they go by other names as well). This type of being mainly called the Djinn has a long history that goes way back many many centuries. You can find a great amount of info about it in this book The Djinn Connection: The Hidden Links Between Djinn, Shadow People, ETs, Nephilim, Archons, Reptilians and Other Entities.

As a commenter mentions, make sure all windows and doors are shut to keep the smoke in your home for a little while and then air out your home later.

Try burning Cedar Sage, after burning white sage, to welcome more positive entities into your household. Lavender smudge sticks also are known for bringing protection. Hope you try the smudging again! Some positive affirmations while smudging will help as well! Good luck!

u/poster213 · 4 pointsr/Thetruthishere

They're called "Shadow People," and there is a large number of reported encounters with them.

They can vary in behavior, and how frequent they visit. Though, I will say, it's odd how sometimes people have paranormal encounters around the 3rd hour in the morning.

Anyways, it doesn't sound like this shadow person meant you harm, as there was no description of it attempting to attack you. But I could be wrong. Often when an entity is negative in nature, things like prayer send it away.

The person who knows the most about Shadow People, is paranormal researcher, Rosemary Ellen Guiley. You can search her name and shadow people on YouTube for videos. Or you can read her book about shadow people here.

Buy this book: https://www.amazon.es/Magickal-Protection-Against-Bullies-Violence/dp/1508842787

By Damon Brand.

In my opinion is it better if you learn to protect yourself because I think magick is about empowering yourself. If you go to another witch for help you always gonna depend on others to help you got better, and that is not true freedom.

I was cursed so many times in my life, the last one I was extremely suicidal and that book saved my life!!!! You don't need nothing but that book. It doesn't required any other tools (not even candles!). Gallery of magick and specially Damon Brand is the best magick teacher you could ask for if you are a begginer!

Good look, lots of blessings and be strong!! Don't be afraid, that just make htings worse. Trust your own power to get out of this.

> So aside from the goofy title which makes this look like a cheap trashy book

I always feel slightly apologetic when I recommend Psycho USA by Harold Schechter because, despite the horrible title and the cover art that makes it look like a Five Finger Death Punch album, it's actually a very well-written examination of why some crimes loom large in the public consciousness, while others are mostly forgotten. I highly recommend Schechter's other books as well. He writes very informative, yet entertaining, books about historical crimes and the public fascination with violence. One of my favorite aspects of his writing is the way he debunks the myth that people were more civilized and less obsessed with the sensational and the lurid back in "the good old days."

If you're interested in reading a book that covers some of the same territory as "Occult America" but from a scientific/skeptical viewpoint, I recommend Martin Gardner's Fads and Fallacies In The Name of Science. As the title suggests, it's more concerned with pseudoscience, but it does cover things like spiritualism, hollow earth societies, faith healing, and the early days of Scientology.

Weird history is kinda my jam.

If you want weird, obscure history with a focus on horrific crimes and the occasional supernatural occurrence, check out Keven McQueen. He's an English professor at a small college in Kentucky, who apparently spends all of his spare time combing old newspapers looking for weird stories to put in his books.


Although his books are mostly PNW-specific, I think anyone who is interested in weird history would dig Stewart Holbrook's Wildmen, Wobblies, and Whistlepunks and Murder Out Yonder.

> "The real UFO story must encompass all of the many manifestations being observed. It is a story of ghosts and phantoms and strange mental aberrations; of an invisible world that surrounds us and occasionally engulfs us; of prophets and prophecies, and gods and demons. It is a world of illusion and hallucination where the unreal seems very real, and where reality itself is distorted by strange forces which can seemingly manipulate space, time, and physical matter-forces that are almost entirely beyond our powers of comprehension."

> John A. Keel (March 25, 1930 - July 3, 2009) was an American journalist and influential UFOlogist best known as the author of "The Mothman Prophecies." In the 1950s, he spent time in Egypt, India, and the Himalayas investigating snake charming cults, the Indian rope trick, and the legendary Yeti, an adventure that culminated in the publication of his first book, "Jadoo." In the mid-1960s, he took up investigating UFOs and assorted forteana and published his first knockout UFO book, "UFOs: Operation Trojan Horse," in 1970. The book shredded the then trendy nuts-and-bolts extraterrestrial hypothesis for UFOs in favor of one that linked UFOs to a variety of paranormal and supernatural phenomena that have taken place throughout history. Keel was one of the first to note that the UFO phenomenon appears in different disguises-and that one could not begin to decipher this great mystery without first taking into account its many and varied deliberate deceptions. Other than a few corrections, this Anomalist Books edition essentially follows the original 1970 edition of "UFOs: Operation Trojan Horse."

Well, I do know a few good books on Yokai (Japanese ghosts and monsters from folklore) if you're interested. It may not be exactly what you're looking for, but these books give a rundown of each Yokai, its appearance and abilities, and sometimes stories involving them. Might be worth checking out.

http://www.amazon.com/Night-Parade-One-Hundred-Demons/dp/0985218401/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1420423832&sr=8-1&keywords=night+parade+of+one+hundred+demons

This one has amazing artwork depicting the beasts, while also having histories and descriptions. One of my favorite books actually, though a bit pricey.


http://www.amazon.com/Great-Yokai-Encyclopaedia-Richard-Freeman/dp/1905723547/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1420424064&sr=8-2&keywords=the+great+yokai

This one doesn't have great art quality, but the information in it is immense. Massive selection of Yokai, with info on hundreds of them. Not as user friendly as the first, but contains a wealth of knowledge.

Hope this helps, I know it may not be exactly what you asked for, but maybe it's close enough.

u/kinch07 · 2 pointsr/UFODisinformation

Dont forget that the narrative of the book behind this movie is that non-human UFOs dont exists and are purely a cover up for Black Projects - which is ridiculous after 70 years of UFO research data.

As brilliant and almost necessary this book is concerning UFO disinformation by the government it fails to adress the reality of the phenomenon apart from secret military projects and it's narrative is in that way manipulative itself. UFO's are not a myth

To quote a good review:

> "My one quibble is it's faliure to offer any accounting for the actual, first hand, experiences of these and other Fortean phenomena beyond imagination and deception. People have strange, vivid, life altering encounters with the inexplicable every day, a phenomenon too constant and robust to be entirely explained as the product of a PSY-OP or encounters with classified technology. This book will not be helpful to anyone struggling to understand the fundemental origin and nature of anomolus experiences (whether their genesis is the collective unconscious, a novel form of hallucination, or the stars), but is absolutely crucial for charting the larger nefarious but ultimately prosaic origins and evolution of the UFO mythos."

I recommended the Kybalion in my previous comment before seeing this post. It seems you have already read the Kybalion then. You are already off to a great start. But there are, as always, up to seven layers of meaning to any text. So you should consider it as more of a reference work than anything; only when your journey is complete will you be able to make full use of its contents.

I might have also referenced the Bhagavad Gita. It seems like our attraction to the mystical is in a very similar pattern. Since you have gone this far, then, as per my other comment I would recommend Mark Stavish's Egregores, but also I might recommend the works of Manly P. Hall, and also his largest influencer, H. P. Blavatsky. Specifically ISIS Unveiled for the latter.

Manly P. Hall would be an especially good resource for so-called "fast tracking." His works are very encyclopedic. Particularly his masterwork The Secret Teachings of All Ages.

You may also find Max Heindel's The Rosicrucian Cosmo-Conception beneficial.

Three at random:

Operation Trojan Horse: The Classic Breakthrough Study of UFOs by John Keel - also consider The Mothman Chronicles but it's not specifically about the source/cause of UFOs, he just makes commentary about that subject at spots in the book.

The UFO Singularity by Micah Hanks - haven't read it yet (it's in the post at the moment) but in his Mysterious Universe interview of a week or two ago he made it clear he had varied views on the cause/source of UFOs.

UFOs, Area 51, and Government Informants: A Report on Government Involvement in UFO Crash Retrievals by Grant Cameron and Scott Craig - written assuming the 'alien presence' hypothesis, obviously.

Graham Hancock has some interesting/disturbing theories regarding the alien phenomena, but I don't think any of his books specifically deal with it, I've just heard him discuss them in interviews.

>I'd point out the numerous conceptual errors you showed in that last comment (eg. according to special relativity, photons don't have mass, because they move at the speed of light), but I'm clearly wasting my time here.

Anyone who actually knows what they’re talking about wouldn’t even use the term “the speed of light.” Einstein’s famous equation refers to the speed of the smallest form of energy we know of in a vacuum (P.S: the universe is by no means a vacuum; there’s mass everywhere). Photons travel more slowly around objects with large mass, which is why light can’t escape black holes.

You make far too many assumptions based on unfinished data. Again, there was a point where atoms were only theorized to exist. This theory is simply the next step.

>I'll leave with a book recommendation. Don't worry, it doesn't have any math.

I appreciate the recommendation, but not so much the condescending remark. It’s not that I have trouble with math; I’m just not going to learn equations that are not needed to prove/falsify my own theory. The equation I have now doesn’t work and is useless and meaningless, I get that. It’s a work in progress.

Your google-fu is weak as shit. Just buy it from a third-party seller on Amazon.

You should read this book:

http://www.amazon.com/Octavo-Sorcerer-Scientists-Grimoire-Peter-Carroll/dp/1906958173/ref=sr_1_9?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1414614391&sr=1-9

It combines a very ambitious theoretical framework for the "science of magic" and also explains how this translates into the nuts of bolts of magickal practice.

Btw have you heard of the neuroscientist Bradley Voytek? He does really great research, not including his book Do Zombies Dream of Undead Sheep? A Neuroscientific View of the Zombie Brain. I think it's a little less on the virus side, and more about zombie...you know...brains.

You speak as if you assume I don't believe in UFO phenomenon, well its been 60 years since Roswell and yet no exposure so either the coverup is very well executed or these kinds of sightings are basically filing the perpetual need for people to create a narrative thats alluring to them.

I read Leslie Keans book, to be honest I'm surprised she attached her name to this flimsy "evidence" I preferred Mirage Men in order to gain a fresh perspective

There actually is a deck made with Jungian archetypes specifically in mind.

I read Mirage Men by Mark Pilkington not long ago. Really interesting.
