Discussion Policy: Suggestions for chat room discussion with advice about topics that may require caution
 These guidelines are for site S+ volunteers and visitors. We encourage discussion, questions and debate about most paranormal and spiritual subjects. This list advises you where caution may be needed with some topics. We feel that we can discuss just about any topic openly and calmly
This is an adult chat room so most topics are acceptable except of course discussion that may defame people or incite hate or racism. We do not allow the posting of web addresses or discussion of our competitors, other chat rooms, personal reading advertising or other online communities.
GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR DISCUSSIONS: This is foremost an adult site 18 + and it states that on the site we should act as such and enter into discussions with this in mind. Discussion in a adult fashion includes: no intolerance, no argument for the sake of argument and no deliberately causing upset and so on. It doesn't really matter what the topic is, the way it's discussed is really the key to a successful and interesting online experience.
When in discussions please do not state opinions as fact.
Monitors are asked to take a Neutral Point Of View during discussions
If you are interested in leading discussions, have expert knowledge or are a psychic medium then why not ask our S+ about joining our team and run your own regular classes.
ASTROLOGY: There is a lot of discussion on site in the chat rooms but I am told very little actual knowledge. Are you an astrologer? If you have an extensive knowledge of the subtleties of astrology then please drop in and inspire our visitors.
CRYSTAL & INDIGO CHILDREN: Are more children being born with adhd or add or autism or is there simply more awareness and better diagnostic tools available? Some people believe that science has it wrong and that these children have supernormal powers. A crackpot idea or is there evidence to support this view? Discuss with care.
CURSES: The occasional person comes in to the rooms and claims that they are cursed. Perhaps the discussion needs to be widened? Consider talking about creating your own belief system and not allowing it to affect your reality.
EARTHBOUND SPIRITS - Well where are they going to get stuck or lost? Yes lets discuss this. It generates a lot of discussion around the nature of the spirit world and people perceptions, misconceptions and beliefs. We get a lot of talk about haunting and the difference between a ghost and spirit.
EVIL SPIRITS & POSSESSION - you may ask questions about this topic but this is most certainly a topic that is surrounded by many myths and misconceptions. There are a number of articles on the site about this and some of our S+ and T+ are knowledgeable of this topic. You may be asked to desist from the topic if the monitors feel that the discussion is upsetting people. Please avoid this topic if a S+ or T+ is not in the room.
LSD EXPERIENCES: Are psychedelic drugs hallucinogenic or do they give the taker insight into alternative realities. You may discuss these ideas but clearly we would not like visitors to encourage people to take drugs of break the law.
OUIJA BOARDS - You are welcome to ask questions and state your views but there are many misconceptions about this topic. There are articles on the site about the use and misuse of ouija boards. Discussions are perhaps best widened to include tools used for psychic or medium work, planchettes , tarot and other divination tools. (including perhaps some of the odder divination techniques such as entrails reading!)
PREDICTIONS & PROPHECY - Can the future be predicted? Is there such as things as free will or is it just an illusion? Was Nostradamus a seer or do we just make his predictions fit the facts? Has someone made a prediction for you and it has come true? Can we take personal responsibility for our lives or is it all in the hands of a higher destiny? Does karma and what we've done in past lives determine what happens to us now and in the future? We ask the visiting readers not to make predictions in their readings as this may upset people. However we encourage discussion about fate and prediction.
POLTERGEISTS: What are poltergeists? Are they simply an energy that surrounds children, teens and adults who are highly agitated or anxious. you may talk about these subjects but do not be mislead by fantasy programs such as Most Haunted - many of our S+ and T+ have made a serious scientific study of this type of phenomena. They will help you separate fact from fantasy.
RELIGION - We allow discussion about all religions but discourage intolerance. Please feel free to discuss God and Divinity but respect other people's beliefs. Many visitors are Spiritualists but this site is not a Spiritualist site or a member of the Spiritualists National Union (SNU) We also allow discussion of atheism which we feel comes under the heading of religion as it is a belief system. Devil worship I guess can be discussed but the general consensus is that most of what we hear is just fantasy - you've may have watched too many movies or met the wrong minister. Again why not widen the debate: have you thought about discussing the history of the bible, the editing by Constantine, whether Jesus went to India, the Gnostic Texts, the Dead Sea Scrolls etc. If you are well read and interested in history then please share your knowledge in a discussion. This chat area is called Delphi - would you like to discuss the Greek ideas and maybe Greek Mythology.
SCIENCE & PARAPSYCHOLOGY : We encourage scientific discussion so long as it remains on topic - i.e. has a spiritual slant. For example we have already had many interesting discussions about Quantum Physics and String theory as well as raising questions about the nature of consciousness and the Self.
SCEPTICISM - People are welcome to take a skeptical stance and we encourage open minded discussion. However we discourage people with what we consider to be extremist beliefs such as radical skepticism and extreme reductionalist materialist views. We discourage intolerance. As for skepticism, some of our volunteers and monitors advise that if you are well grounded and established in your understanding of the reality of the spirit then you are able to let that personal proof and conviction stand up to scrutiny
SEX & TANTRA - Sex is a natural part of life and people sometimes ask questions such as 'Is there sex in the afterlife' and 'What do my sexual dreams mean' and so on. Some are also interested in Tantric yoga. We allow talk about sex but I leave it to the discretion of the monitors if they feel that the conversation needs to be lifted to a more spiritual level. Naturally we do not allow vulgarity in the rooms. The chatrooms may not be used for dating.
SOUL MATES AND TWIN SOULS: Do we all have a soul mate? Perhaps we have known one another in past lives or have a karmic debt to work out together? Soul mates makes for a fascinating and engaging topic for discussion.
SPIRIT ANIMALS/GUIDES/TOTEMS What do you believe? Perhaps certain animal essences can be associated with people i.e. the traits of the animal and that psychics pick up on that and this is why they sometimes will say that the person has an animal guide/spirit animal or totem. Naturally the most popular animals re hawks, eagles, wolves, tigers, big cats, the occasional bear...its never the little creatures like cockroaches. Makes an interesting topic for debate.
VOODOO or VUDOO - (two different spelling depending on the region) Yes you can talk about these topics too and we will not boot you for your beliefs. We have had some intriguing discussions about this - perhaps you'd like to share your ideas?
WITCHCRAFT - Talk about witchcraft and Wicca is permitted. There is however a lot of misconceptions about this topic and it is perhaps best to have these discussions while an informed S+ or T+ volunteer is present. We do not allow curses or spell casting. (Most of our members believe that spells are just a way to focus intent rather like meditation)
YOGA & MEDITATION - Are you a yoga teacher? maybe you'd like to share your knowledge about the health, mental and spiritual benefits of yoga? Some mediums use a form of Kriya to open their chakras and connect to the lokas. Maybe you can suggest ways people can use these methods to improve their spiritual abilities or adapt the Yama and Niyama to mediumship. Again you may want to widen the discussion to include the many eastern disciplines such as yoga , meditation and the similarities with Western ideas such as Kabbalah, New Age beliefs, Shamanism and so on. If you have teaching ability then please consider joining our online volunteer teaching team that offer weekly or monthly online classes.
