Indeed, the fear of the number 13 seems to be embedded into the very fabric of our society.

Psychic powers take many forms. The best definition of a psychic is a person who is able to know things by unconventional means. This may be through the use of some tools like tarot cards or spirit boards or simply through a highly developed lower and higher consciousness, where the lower consciousness governs intuitions (felt in the solar plexus) and the higher consiousness is more sophisticated and involves the receipt of very explicit information (through the third eye chakra involving the pineal gland).

The Pineal Gland is a gland inside of the brain, scientifically referred to as epiphysis cerebri. This gland, shaped like a tiny pinecone, is part of the endocrine system. But is it more than that? According to Wikipedia, René Descartes, believed the pineal gland was the point of connection between the intellect and the body, or "the seat of the soul." Is the Pineal Gland connected to spiritual awakening, possibly even astral projection?
