The Aether often spelt and pronounced Ether, means the air around us or the upper air, in the atmosphere or space that surrounds us.
BENIGN:
We often hear the term Benign Spirit or Ghost, basically means a harmless or gentle Ghost, one who means no harm or who means no danger, they are of a gentle, kind and mild disposition.
DOPPELGANGER:
From the German words doppel meaning double and ganger meaning goer a double goer ,the ghostly counterpart of a person or the ghostly double of a living person that haunts its living counterpart.
EMANATE:
To emit, to give out from a source or to emit from the body, like the sun emits rays of light-the rays EMANATE from the sun, Mediums sense the energy that EMANATES from the spirit, it just means the energy that is emitting from the spirit or ghost.
FALSE AWAKENING:
Its an experience in which a person believes he or she has woken up and believes they are doing something as if they are awake, but in fact is still actually asleep and dreaming despite feeling like what their experiencing is real.
HYPNOGOGIC & HYPNOPOMPIC:
Hypnagogic was coined by a French psychologist LF Alfred Maury in the 19th-century, and it comes from the two Greek words, Hypnos (sleep) and Agogeus (guide, or leader). Some years later, Psychical Researcher FWH Myers coined a complimentary term, Hypnopompic, to cover similar phenomena occurring as we wake from sleep. It has also been known by the names: the ‘borderland state’, the ‘half-dream state’and the ‘pre-dream condition’.
The Hypnogogic state is when we start to get drowsy and about to fall asleep our imagination is at its most creative and we start to hear noises, see things such as people, landscapes or places, we are not awake nor asleep, for most of us these are not real images just our imagination, you have to remember our thinking side of the brain has been busy all day filtering reality from the non reality, keeping our imagination under control, so as we are about to sleep and the thinking brain is at rest our imagination is still wide awake, it's here the imagination runs wild giving us these images and noises, however many mediums have recorded these images and found that what they are getting are messages from spirit to give to someone they are about to meet, some of these messages are true and exact, which leaves us to ask the question if its true that anyone can be trained to be a medium are we all having Psychic dreams!
The Hypnopompic state is after we have slept and awaking but not back to full consciousness, the same as above occurs with the noises and images.
IN RESPECT I WILL LEAVE YOU TO YOUR OWN CONCLUSIONS ON THIS, AS I BELIEVE NEITHER THEORY CAN BE PROVEN OR DISPROVEN..
MALEVOLENT:
The opposite
to Benign, Malevolent Spirits or Ghosts are those who are not harmless, in
fact they wish harm to others, they have an evil or harmful influence about
them, they are not friendly they bring ill will and are malicious.
PLETHORA:
Another
of those words we hear is Plethora, which means a very large amount of something,
especially
a larger amount than you need, want or can deal with, when we hear there is
a Plethora of Ghosts or a Plethora of activity it simply means a lot of.
PSYCHOKINESIS:
The ability to will events to actually happen, to bring a visualization into a reality, a power of mind to effect matter, mostly reported in Poltergeist activity, it is believed the person affected is actually the one who makes objects move and not the ghost, as it is believed to be our own unconscious mind causing things to happen, more easily explained as the same technique used in spoon bending, it's mind over matter.
