Scripts produced without the control of the conscious self, usually writings executed by a medium while in a trance or altered state of consciousness. Automatic writing is the most common form of mediumship, the source of innumerable cases of self-delusion, and at the same time the source of some of the most interesting and intriguing cases of mediumship.


 Occultists believe automatic writing is the product of communication with a spiritual being; psychical researchers believe it emanates from the writer's own subconscious, or perhaps through ESP.


 Cases are on record where lost articles have been recovered by means of automatic writing. Foreign languages that have been forgotten, or with which the subject has small acquaintance, are spoken or written fluently. Automatic writing was supposedly invaluable in the psychic excavations carried out at Glastonbury in the early twentieth century (see Glastonbury Scripts and Psychic Archaeology).


 The writer is usually unaware of what is being written. Typically the process is much faster than ordinary handwriting and the script is larger and more expansive. Automatic writers have also produced mirror script and backwards writing, starting from the bottom right of the page and finishing at the top left. At the height of spiritualism automatic writing was common in seances, where it was adopted as a superior method of communicating with the dead than rappings or using a planchette.


Automatic writing has also been used by psychologists and psychiatrists in the investigation and treatment of mental illness.

Make certain your browser permissions are set accordingly and that you have the latest Flash plug-in for the full experience, proper look and accurate layout.


If using Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, clicking (or pressing the SPACEBAR or ENTER) on the Flash graphics is necessary to activate it. If using the latest versions of Firefox or Netscape, adjusting the browser trust permissions to "ENABLE MAXIMUM SITE FUNCTIONALITY" is required to fully enjoy Occultopedia's features and Flash graphics. You can do it with confidence. This site does not contain any viruses or any malicious software or script.


As you may have noticed, Occultopedia is being updated. Navigation areas are completed, but the word definition pages are not. The layout in these pages might not look as good as they should. Updating them may take a while, so please, be patient and understanding. I am only one person working on this site in my spare time.


As soon as these updates are concluded I will begin setting up the Forums, so we can all discuss the occult, paranormal and extraordinary, and whatever else we please. Registration will be required.


Occultopedia's images and art are also undergoing an adjustment to Flash based graphics. This process may take some time as well, so again, be patient and understanding.
           






           

Occultopedia is the genuine article, the original and the best internet index of the extraordinary and uncanny, shamelessly copied by many, but never equaled. Online since the early 90s — at first in a free web space provider, and in 1997 finally with its own domain name and hosting — Occultopedia still is the principal online resource for those looking for the unexplained, the curious and the unusual.
