Part of the EKG/ECG Formed My Initials

 I saw three strange things today. Probably the least strange thing was the appearance of my initials within an ECG/EKG reading. A while ago I bought the Kardia Mobile device which allows you to get an EKG reading (also called an ECG reading) by placing two fingers on a little metal pad that connects to your smartphone. You can use the device to get a 1-lead ECG/EKG reading. Supposedly the device alerts you if it detects atrial fibrillation. But luckily I have not got such a warning yet. 

Below is part of what came up today in the reading. We see an "MM" which matches my initials. In the same reading today with lots of wiggly lines, I saw a match for my middle initial. 

Another thing that happened was even stranger.. Standing six inches from a kitchen sink, I saw a pill (an orange Coenzyme Q10 pill) mysteriously fall from a cutting board to the left of the sink, falling into the sink, when both of my hands were at least six inches away from both the sink and the cutting board. I can speculate about a symbolic meaning of this strange event I can't explain, expounding from the fact that Coenzyme Q10 is mainly used for heart health. Maybe some strange heart-related warning was occurring. Or given that hearts are a symbol for love, maybe some love-related symbolism was going on, like the strange thing I witnessed last Valentine's Day. 

When I woke up, I saw something else very strange. I use a tube of white hydrocortisone to prevent night itching (it's pretty much the best thing there is to prevent itching, and you can buy it for little at any good drugstore). In the morning when I went into the bathroom there were two perfect circles of the white hydrocortisone lotion on the floor, near the sink, each about as big as a large coin. Now, it is easy to imagine me accidentally dripping some of this lotion on the floor, in a messy-looking drip, since I apply such lotion at night. But what is the chance that two perfect circles would be formed by such accidental dripping? Very low, it would seem. 

Trying to imagine some symbolic significance here, I can imagine that the two white circles symbolized circular orbs like those I sometimes photograph. Or maybe there was some time symbolism occurring. Two white circles might symbolize two full moons, or a period of 60 days. Maybe I was getting a warning about something dramatic or ominous that will occur in about 60 days.  

I continue to have dreams that seem to symbolize life after death, and I have recorded more than 555 such dreams in my frequently updated post here. In the latest such dream I dreamed of a person deep underwater, floating up through an underwater  passageway, heading towards the air and sunlight above the water.  The "floating up to the light" motif seemed to symbolize a soul floating up to the spiritual illumination of a heavenly afterlife.

Mysterious Blue Indoor Orbs: A Retrospective (Part 15)

Below is Part 15 of a retrospective showing some of the better photos I have taken indoors of mysterious blue orbs photographed indoors. 

The photo below shows quite a few mysterious orbs I photographed in Grand Central Terminal in New York.

A Bright Orb

 In Episode 2 of Season 2 of the Netflix series "High Seas" two characters start talking about life after death. I started to take some photos, hoping to get something spooky during the brief conversation mentioning life after death. I did get an orb in a photo at the exact moment a character mentioned the phrase "near death experience." At the exact moment that one character was saying that when someone dies, it may be that "their spirit remains with us," I got a very spooky-looking effect in my photo of the TV screen. It could conceivably have been caused by my hand accidentally making a sudden jerk at that moment. But my hand is almost invariably steady when I photograph, and I bet I could take 500 consecutive photos of a TV without such an effect repeating. 

A Green Sky Orb

We see below a mysterious orb I photographed outdoors. There was no fog, mist, rain or precipitation on this night. The sky was clear, and the camera was pointed straight up at the sky, where no visible moon could be seen. 

A Very Long-Distance Telepathy Test

 In my "Psychic Bond?" post of 2022, which you can read here, I describe how informal telepathy tests between me and my daughters have sometimes had remarkable successes. I only very rarely do such a test, which I will casually try in the form of a guessing game. Maybe once every few months I will ask a daughter to guess what unusual thing I saw, or what thing I dreamed about. The only such test I made recently was one involving a single question, with the unusual variation of being a very long-distance test. 

While one of my daughters was thousands of miles away recently on a trip, I texted her, telling her I had a dream about a game, and asking her to guess which game it was. I got back a guess of "Skyrim," one of very many video games I have played. I texted back saying that was a good guess, but the dream I had was actually about the board game Monopoly. 

I then got back a text from this daughter saying, "Oh, wow, I was actually thinking that for a second but thought it would be hard to have a dream about Monopoly." So apparently the long distance telepathy test was a success. 

In my post here I discuss a casual method for testing telepathy between family members and friends. It involves doing a quick "what did I see?" or "what did I dream?" guessing game, in which the guesser gets three guesses. I have noticed a kind of "warmup" effect in such tests, in which the guesser often gives the correct answer on the second or third try.

My "Psychic Bond?" post of 2022 (which discusses some striking successes in such casual ESP tests) does not even discuss quite a few much earlier examples that very strongly seemed like ESP or telepathy between myself and family members,  which are discussed in my "Spookiest Observations" post here. 

The evidence for extrasensory perception (ESP) or telepathy in humans is overwhelming, and you can read about that evidence in my series of 81 posts here (keep pressing Older Posts at the bottom right to read them all).  The evidence consists of both a gigantic wealth of anecdotal reports, and also a huge body of compelling experimental evidence done in laboratory conditions. An example of the latter is the "better than a smoking gun" Riess test described here. 

You may want to test telepathy on someone who disbelieves in it, and such a person may shun participation in guessing games. An alternate technique is to pose something as a puzzle, and challenge the person to give the one-word answer to the puzzle with an answer hard to guess. One way to do such a thing is to ask a person to give the final word of a joke, one that finishes the "punchline" of the joke. I can give an example. You can tell this joke and ask the person to give the word that completes the joke.  Give the person 20 seconds to answer, and during this time think silently of the answer. 

"John was a single 35-year-old man with a very sick widower father, a father who was very rich. John expected to soon inherit the father's millions. One day John went into a bar, hoping to attract interest from a female.  He met a sexy young woman and told her about how his father was very rich, and very ill. 'I speak the truth,' said John. 'Lots of people in this town know how rich my father is.' Instead of continuing to talk with John, the woman simply said, 'Nice talking to you,' and left. John was disappointed. Three weeks later the woman became John's __________."

The word that completes the joke is hard to guess. It is "stepmother."
