The Periodic Table of Paranormal Elements
Layering is the theory that multiple tragic events create layers of psychic energy which can affect the prevalence of paranormal activity in a location. Clustering is the observation that notably unusual events may coincide within a reasonably close geographic proximity.
A theory which states that there are specific rules which control the behavior of different categories of spiritual entities. For example, black eyed beings are often reported to be forbidden from entering a residence or vehicle unless invited to do so.
Divergent Reality is the theory that multiple observers may experience multiple, separate timelines which are all equally valid, as if reality has split or diverged for these observers. This is considered a super pattern in that it can explain many paranormal phenomena.
Message Phenomenon refers to communication with supernatural, extraterrestrial, and/or spiritual beings. This includes Signs from Spirit, events which have a meaningful significance to the observer or experiencer. Referred to as Messages from Heaven or Messages from the Dead. This includes the appearance of physical objects seemingly placed in the observers path such as feathers, crystals, coins (pennies from heaven). Can also include the appearance of rainbow, bird or butterfly or other insect. May also include telephone calls, text messages (or other forms of instant messaging) from a deceased loved one.
Also related to this phenomenon is the idea that supernatural beings routinely influence the thoughts of humans which then leads to creative expressions which then prove to be prophetic. An example of this is the novella, The Wreck of the Titan: Or, Futility, by Morgan Robertson, the plot of which is eerily similar to the sinking of the RMS Titanic.
A pop culture term for the appearance of strange events that may reveal that reality may actually be a type of simulation. This concept was once proposed by Phillip K. Dick and was subsequently explored in the movie The Matrix, then written about in Children Of The Matrix by David Icke. Scientists believe there is evidence to support such a theory. Paranormal activity can be attributed to moments when the simulation breaks down briefly. May also be tied to the Mandela Effect, Divergent Reality and a variety of other strange events. This is considered to be a super pattern as it can contain other elements.
