654.0. "Other forms ???" by BOARDS::LATOUCHE () Fri Feb 12 1988 10:49

    I wonder.
    
    Does the paranormal exist in other worlds. There has to be something
    or someone else out there.
    
    Other civilizations probably have their own "form" of unexplained
    phenomenon relative to their own way of existance. Then again, maybe
    not! They could experience the same things we do.  I wonder.
    
    
    Also,  what about "other" astrological charts. Makes sense that
    if your in a different location in space, the astrological rules
    and readings will also change.
    
    
    
    Some thoughts on a snowy and peaceful morning.
    
    Any others?!?

654.1Here's some thoughtsCSC32::KACHELMYERDavid KachelmyerSat Feb 13 1988 17:3449
    Speculation:
    
    It seems reasonable to me that on other worlds with incarnate beings
    (or ones who's access to higher planes of existance is masked) that the
    possibility for para-normal stuff would be there.  On the other hand,
    other-worldly inhabitabitants who don't exist on a physical plane might
    may very well experience our type of para-normal as S.O.P (and perhaps
    would have their own level of para-normal stuff, which would be
    founded in still higher planes of existance :-) ).
    
    I'd suppose that on other worlds and in other systems that the
    astrology would not be identical.
    
    If one assumes for a moment that the underlying principle of astrology
    might be that:
    
        o   Each heavenly body emanates a particular spiritual energy.
        o   The sphere of influence of this body extends far beyond the
            physical boundary of the object.
        o   That the planets, as they move around the star, are also
	    moving thru all of the spiritual energy fields.
    	o   That the effect of the interaction of these fields at a
	    particular point in space can be different than at another
    	    point.
    
    Then the specific astrological rules for another world would depend
    on the type of spiritual energies used on each astrological body in the
    solar system and on the number and orbital speed of the planets around
    the star(s) (and moons around the planets).

    For example, if one happened to be an denizen of Mars, then the effects
    of Mars and Earth would probably be much different, given that they
    would be stationary with respect to Mars's energy field and moving thru
    Earth's.  Additionally, the movement thru all of the other spiritual
    energy fields would be different, because Mars orbits the Sun half as
    fast as Earth.  The orbital cycles of the other planets would appear
    to be different (more frequent per year) on Mars than on Earth.
    And, of course, the rotational speed of the planet would also
    have an effect, as would the number of moons.

    With other solar systems, with different numbers of planets, different
    rotational speeds and different numbers of stars, and perhaps different
    spiritual forces, the astrological rules would, in all probablility, be
    even more different!  (Imagine the astrology of a twin-star system
    with five orbiting planets!  Gak!)
    
    Of course, if this isn't how astrology works, then nevermind!

654.2As above, so below.GLASS::WETHERINGTONMorrison HotelMon Feb 15 1988 13:2614
    Given that the rest of the known universe operates on the same physical
    laws as us (i.e. planets revolve around stars, stars are clustered
    into galaxies), it would stand to reason that there is some degree
    of consistency all over the universe; indeed, that the same laws,
    are in effect in all places.  This would lead to the
    conclusion that while there may be slightly different outward
    manifestations of phenonema, differences caused by
    the physical locations and characteristics of a given planet, the
    underlying *laws* of mind, matter, and spirit, are the same for
    all of creation.
    
    Good case for Monotheism, eh, Mikie?  ; )
