Superstition & Oddities

Magical Words, Circles, Symbols, Colors, And Metals

In the world of the occult arts, there are beliefs that certain words, circles, symbols, and colors have magical powers since ancient times to the present day. A very small sample of magical words include the following: “abracadabra”, “alackazam”, alackazoom”, and “hocus pocus”. The full magical phrase of the first word is “Abra, Kadabra, and Alakazam”. “Abracadabra” is ancient Aramatic for “father, son, and holy spirit” and seems to be referring to the Christian Holy Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit”. Other people claim “Abracadabra” is ancient Hebrew for “It came to pass as it was spoken”

Ancient, Secret Hindu Yoga

There are two types of yoga. The most common form is the type of yoga practiced at various schools or social interest places where there is a course on instruction for a few weeks. Usually, people pay a reasonable cost for the classes, but some teachers demand exorbitant, unreasonable high tuition. The first type of yoga starts with the lotus position(sitting straight upright with crossed over legs), with some deep breathing in and out. Sometimes, there is also a little meditation or contemplation about the lotus position and temporarily emptying the mind of worries and problems.
