A remote Yorkshire dalees Village Road was it the ghost of a murdered woman or something stranger a farmer with a large spread and two beautiful daughters seemed to have the world in the palm of his hands until he hired a farmand named Edwin Willis major slipping on eye and breaking his

Leg world-renowned psychologist Carl Young was rushed to Medical Care and fell into unconsciousness what happened while he was passed out would determine the direction of his life thereon including odd dreams strange spirits and a passion for the occult but first in the bad lands of Arizona people unexpectedly die others

Disappear Without a Trace and it might all be connected to a treasure that is rumored to be cursed we begin with that story now bolt your doors lock your windows turn off your lights and come with me into the weird Darkness some places have long been thought to be simply no good cursed blighted tainted whatever you want to call it out in the remote bad lands of the US state of Arizona just to the east of the Phoenix metropolitan area lies a sun-scorched dried up arid moonscape of

Twisted Peaks and sprawling expanse of bad lands called the Superstition Mountains at one time called the Sierra de la espuma by Spanish settlers here is a place of sprawling rugged Wilderness encompassing the Superstition Wilderness Area and drawing in hikers rock climbers campers and all manner of those looking to enjoy the

Natural Splendor and outdoor activities on offer yet it is also a place of fabled mysteries talk of dark curses strange disappearances and deaths High strangeness and a secret treasure that it allegedly holds close to it reluctant to ever give it up the native Apache people of the area had already long held

This as a rather Sinister sacred place even before Outsiders came in to settle the land they believed that the entrance to the underworld itself lay somewhere in among those Peaks and that powerful Spirits roamed the withered landscape there were also strange stories among the Apache of a magnificent hidden

Cavern full of gold said to be a vast treasure long buried within the mountains and and protected by Spirits troll-like beasts called tarum and even their Thunder God himself according to these Legends this treasure was almost never seen by mortal eyes at least not by anyone who lived

Tell about it but there are some Tales of Outsiders stumbling across it one of the most prominent of such Tales is that of an affluent mining family from Mexico the Peraltas although some versions of the story say that they were ranchers the main thing is that they supposedly accidentally found this ancient Apache

Treasure somewhere in the mountains but it was to spell their Doom according to the story the Apaches quickly descended upon the family to ruthlessly Slaughter all of them but one Left Alive solely to tell the tale not to mess with the Lost mind to anyone who would listen the

Apache Warriors who had massacred them are then said to have reburied the entrance of this enormous Trove of gold and to this day the area where this is believed to have happened has been labeled the massacre grounds and there are other places names that denote this Grim history such as Massacre Falls and

Others the Peralta family would go on to be suspected of having left some evidence behind of their Discovery in the form of a series of odd Stones mysteriously etched with codes pictographs and cryptic messages written out in imperfect Latin which are said to hold the key to Finding the Treasure and

Which have been dubbed the Peralta Stones these Stones were allegedly written up by the family shortly before their Massacre and left behind by Apaches who did not know their true meaning and so left them to rot away in the sun they would be uncovered in the

1940s but whether there is any truth to this story is anyone’s guess in later years there is the story of The Adventurous spanish-born Dr Abraham Thorne who was at the time living among the natives of the region and studying their medical practices to this end he lived for years among their ranks

Learning their ways and tending to their sick and wounded as a sort of reward for his generosity he was apparently one day asked to put on a blindfold after which he was told that he would be led to the mythical lost Cavern of gold he was then

LED along a harsh Meandering route of an estimated 20 M after which they removed the blindfold and he was met with the sight of a pile of gold sparkling in the sun near an entrance into the presumed lost mine the Apaches told him he could

Grab as much of the gold as he could carry on his person which he did before being led back out never knowing the precise location although he did mention a sharp peak of rock which is thought to have perhaps been Weaver’s needle a popular landmark in the area yet the

Mountains and their cursed treasure would get their most well-known mystery with the arrival of a German immigrant named Jacob Waltz who was a gold prospector in the Phoenix Valley in the late 1800s Waltz would claimed to have been out prospecting when he’d come across an unimaginably vast vein of gold out in

The mountains curiously supposedly near Weaver’s needle he allegedly made many forays to this mine taking gold as he pleased and boasting of its Discovery but all who tried to follow him or learn his secret were said to get hopelessly lost or end up vanished or even dead he would take this secret location

Practically to his grave but as he lied dying from a bout of pneumonia in 1891 he allegedly told all laying out the secret location of the lost and cursed Apache treasure giving detailed but cryptic instruction on how to navigate the rough terrain to the entrance as well as scrolling out a

Crude map to it all as he lay on his deathbed how he knew all of this no one knows but one rumor has it that he learned the secret location of this massive stash of gold from the sole surviving Peralta family member walz’s caregiver a Julia Thomas apparently

Listened to all of this but had no idea what to think of any of it she was oblivious baffled and would appear L later sell the map of the now Dead treasure hunter to parties unknown the Lost stash of gold which has gone on to be rather oddly known as The Lost

Dutchman’s mind has catapulted itself into one of the most intriguing unsolved modern Mysteries there is and the Allure of its undiscovered riches has led many people to their deaths with some estimates saying that over 600 people have mysteriously died or vanished during attempts to try and PRI it from its ancient resting

Place the story of the Lost Dutchman’s mind would go on to become a persistent Legend and Obsession for many would be treasure Hunters over the years indeed in the decades since Waltz made his mysterious proclamation of the mine public there have been numerous Earnest attempts to try and track it down and

These have the Sinister habit of meeting rather gruesome ends one of these was a veterinarian and treasure hunter named Adolf Ruth who in 1931 made his way to these Windswept Wilds armed with what he at the time claimed to be the actual original map to it the 66-year-old Ruth

Who was by all accounts absolutely and hopelessly obsessed with the location of the Lost Dutchman’s mine ventured out into those bad lands despite warnings against it and shortly after vanished Without a Trace after an intensive search Ruth’s skull was found at the bottom of a remote Ravine sitting out there all

Alone in the unforgiving desert a month later the rest of the body was found about 3/4 of a mile away with severely broken legs and it was supposed that he had fallen and then after his Grievous injuries died of starvation and the elements as to why his head had been

Carried off no one knows along with the body was found a mysterious note and sconed within a bottle which said that he had broken his leg and needed help but which also stay that he had managed to find the legendary Lost Dutchman’s mine there were other weird Clues found

About the body such as the presence of two bullet holes to the skull from shots fired at Point Blank Range and it was speculated that he had perhaps been killed for his secret knowledge or committed suicide although shooting a second time into your own head seems extremely unlikely plus there was no

Weapon found who killed him and then separated his head from his body remains unknown the curse of the treasure would continue in the 1940s when a 62-year-old treasure hunter by the name of James A Carvey journeyed into the Superstition Mountains and also ended up dead and with his head separated from his

Shoulders in this case the body was found first with the rest of the body following a full 6 months later no suspects or motive were ever found in later years in 1945 a wouldbe treasure hunter named Barry storm would claim that as he had been out looking for the

Treasure he had been fired upon by a mysterious sniper who he called Mr X who seemed to be guarding the area the mysterious deaths and disappearances go on and on in December of 1949 a man named James kid vanished Without a Trace in the area as well interestingly it was

Found that he had amassed a small fortune in a short amount of time after starting his foray into the mountains urging suspicions that he had found the Lost mind his body has never been found in 1952 there was a man named Joseph Kelly who went out into the mountains to

Find the treasure and proceeded to vanish from the face of the Earth his body would later be found with a bullet hole to the Head also in that year was The Disappearance of two young boys Ross bla and Charles harsh Barker whose bodies were never found mysterious bodies turned up in the Superstition

Mountains all through the 1960s and70s with at least five people found dead with bullet holes to the skulls and with other bodies found minus the heads which were never found this would become a common theme in these Superstition Mountains the presence of decapitated corpses and indeed this had happened to

Quite a few people who have dared to look for the Lost Dutchman’s mind throughout the decades there have been other mysterious and ominous disappearances as well including an abandoned campsite found in the mountains in 1958 complete with blood soaked blankets but no bodies and no suspect there have been countless such deaths and

Disappearances in the region over the years many of them with missing heads or gunshot wounds to the Head most recently in 2009 there was a wouldbe treasure hunter by the name of Jesse cap 35-year-old bellhop from Denver who was in his free time by all accounts fascinated and obsessed with the legend

Of the Lost Dutchman’s mind at the time he had ventured out into the Tonto National Forest in search of the legendary treasure having looked for it on several occasions in the past and accumulating hundreds of books and hundreds of pages of research on the matter he would vanish Into Thin Air for

His efforts in 2012 his vehicle wallet cell phone and backpack were located but there had been no sign of the missing man then his body would finally be found wedged into a remote and inaccessible crevice with the official cause of death still a mystery it was speculated that

He had fallen or even jumped but it is still a mystery just another casualty of the feudal search for the lost treasure the man’s campsite would be found to hold many books on the lost mine and this would join a further three more mysterious deaths in 2010 and 2011 in

The same area all of whom had been seeking the legendary Dutchman’s Mine The Lost Dutchman’s mind has gone on to become a pop culture Legend written of in countless books and appearing on numerous TV shows there are still those who obsessively search for it and try to decode its Secrets but no

One has ever really quite met managed to find it to the point that many Skeptics question whether it ever really existed at all yet there are still all of these mysterious disappearances and death these enigmatic decapitated corpses and their bullet-ridden heads is someone or something trying to keep this treasure

Hidden is this all just a spooky legend or is there something more to it no one really knows but the answers just may lie out there in the desolate reaches of those desert Badlands when weird Darkness Returns a farmer with a large spread and two beautiful daughters seem to have the

World in the palm of his hands until that is he hired a farmand named Edwin Willis major but first for years a ghost haunted a remote Yorkshire dalees Village’s Road was it the ghost of a murdered woman or something stranger that story is up next remember staying up late on a

Darkness.com In the late 1930s there were numerous reports of a ghost light annually appearing on the outskirts of Coverdale Village in North Yorkshire interviewing Mr J Pickersgill a middleham butcher just a few miles away from Coverdale a Yorkshire post journalist was told I’ve seen it two or three times you pull up

At the side of the road which is narrow expecting a car to pass you it doesn’t come and as soon as you start again the light goes out and there’s nothing on the road nearly everybody in the Dale has seen it there’s a man at West Scranton who has seen it more than

Anybody and he’s puzzled it’s been seen for years on this road but not always on the same stretch the road from Coverdale to West scarfon between the hamlets of called and East scon is where the ghost light was most reported and although not mentioned at the time the road has an

Urban legend or a ghost attached to it 13th century coveram Abbey on the banks of the river cover was founded by monks from northern France the white cannons monks who wore white habits while expecting peace in the area this was not to be with Scots attacking The Abbey in

13 18 and 200 years later Henry VII had the ABY stripped of its treasures and importantly its roof connected with the Abbey and between calbor and East scraton are the ruins of a chapel dedicated to Saints Simon and Jude founded by Rolf Pou in 1328 it was a

Chapel of ease for coveram Abbey It is believed that at one time it also served as a Hermitage and even in 1582 it was described as a ruined chapel and used as an ale house it is in this lional space between the Abbey and St Simon’s that

Stories linger of a poor beautiful girl who was murdered by her rich lover when he thought she loved another a similar Trope to my nearest ghost saress Kitty the ghost of a young woman who drowned while meeting her lover St Simon’s Chapel sits next to the river cover so again similarities with Kitty

According to the website mysterious Britain the story has been around in the Dale for a couple of hundred years how a poor but beautiful girl who wore a black lace Shaw had fallen in love with the son of The Squire and met him on many a dark night while their respective

Parents slept one Dreadful day however a girl who also fancied the job of Mrs future Squire put a spanner in the works and told the lad that his girlfriend was playing footsie with someone else overcome with jealousy and rage he waited for his lover that night blunt

Instrument in hand and did her in before hauling her still warm body up to the Moore and dumping it in a shallow grave strangely in the 1950s local Pete diggers found a corpse in a shallow grave and it was wrapped in a black lace Shaw further confirming the local urban

Legend is the murdered girl ghost also responsible then for the ghost light appearances there is no doubt if there is a folk memory of over 200 years that the area is haunted by a girl murdered at night that somehow when the interaction between the unusual whether misidentification hallucination or the

Other worldly occurs then this might be the archetypal imagery created maybe the ghost girl is a manifestation of the ghost light and vice versa during the sightings a local police officer based in mham told the journalist he hadn’t seen anything unusual in the area he believed that the

Explanation for the sightings was The Escape of marsh gas based on his sightings of the ghost light according to the officer the gas is phosphorescent at a distance I have seen it looking exactly like a lantern being carried at knee or hip Heights by someone on rough

Ground the movement is caused by the wind if the murdered girl was meeting her lover at night did she carry a lantern that night as the skeptical policeman described 2 years later after the first reports the ghost light was reported again to the Yorkshire post late a

Friday night a Dale contractor Mr W brown of West scarfon was driving a motor Lori to his home he noticed a brilliant beam of light on the road in front of him Mr Brown thought it was an approaching motorc car this road is very narrow at this

Point and he stopped the Lori to allow the supposed motor car to pass he waited for some time but the light came no nearer then he went slowly forward as he got nearer the light suddenly it disappeared in the road leaving no Trace interestingly they mention that

The light is connected in someway with the ruin of a chapel known as St Simon’s which stands in the fields near the point where the light appears I found this ghost story captivating we have several key signposts in the story that follow the typical haunt field Theory

Firstly the ghost and ghost light are appearing on Parish boundaries if you reference the work of Jeremy Hart over 80% of Road ghosts such as Phantom hitchhikers single roadside hauntings Etc are usually seen on the boundaries of a particular Parish this defies explanation because most boundaries are not signposted therefore the witness would

Not know if they were passing these areas but does the ghost we also then have a remote area that is rich in both historical and ghostly Legends St Simons may be the center of the hauntings in the area but the black Shaw ghost is seen wandering the boundaries of near by kotu Park

Wherein a 1993 one of Britain’s largest coin hordes was discovered again a link between ghosts and treasure can I provide an explanation of what the locals were witnessing no it’s interesting though that the skeptical policeman inadvertently describes what could be the ghost and yet believes Marsh gas is responsible

There is no doubt that there could be any number of reasons of why or what they saw in Coverdale in the 1930s and since but if you live in the area maybe visit and have a ramble to St Simons and keep an eye out for a lady in a black Shaw

Moses Lovejoy was a respected well-to-do farmer with a large spread in Wilton New Hampshire he had two lovely daughters Ellen and Ida both were intelligent and refined everything was Rosy until 1868 when Moses hired Edwin Willis major as a farmand 22-year-old Edwin major came from gtown

13 in July 1869 Ellen returned from picking blueberry then suddenly collapsed and died her death could not be explained and was vaguely attributed to a spasm those who laid out her body for burial believed that she was pregnant when she died the following November Ida discovered that she was pregnant Edwin

Major was the father he married Ida and they lived together in her father’s house at first it appeared the marriage would reform major he joined the Baptist Church in the Center Village and for a time was a zealous convert who became sexon of the church but when money disappeared from the church’s charity

Fund suspicion fell on major and he was expelled from the church when relations became strained between major and his father-in-law he and Ida left The Farmhouse and moved to French Village major took a job at a Furniture Factory but was soon discharged for undisclosed reasons a short time later one of the

Work shops at the factory burned down suspicion again rested on major but no movement was made towards his arrest people lived in Terror fearing that if they brought charges against him major would retaliate and burn down their buildings in the 5 years since the wedding Ida gave birth to four children

Two of which had died suddenly but no investigation was made in 1874 Ida was pregnant again major started telling people that his wife was ill suffering from spasms he said that Ida was a camper subject meaning she habitually took camper oil a cough suppressant that could be addictive or even fatal when taken

Internally on Saturday December 19th 1874 major took a train to noshua New Hampshire where he met with several Physicians he asked about procuring abortion an illegal operation at the time for his cousin he said when major returned on Sunday Ida appeared to be in good health at 6:00 she prepared supper

At 7:00 she was dead Ida had begun having spasms and when neighbors were called to help she was too sick to recognize them they summoned a doctor but she was dead before he arrived this time the doctor was suspicious and sent for coroner BB Whitmore he did not

Arrive until after Ida’s funeral the following Tuesday corer Whitmore ordered Ida’s body disinterred and held major in custody pending an inquest into her death he sent Ida’s stomach to Boston for analysis by Dr Edward S Wood of the Massachusetts General Hospital Dr Wood analyzed the stomach contents using drogen dorf’s process including three

Tests one taste two reaction with sulfuric acid and Bic chromate of potach and three the physiological test the substance was fed to a frog the Frog died instantly and Dr Wood determined that Ida’s stomach contained strick nine he presented his findings to the Corner’s Journey who concluded that Ida was poisoned by Edwin

Major as major awaited trial Ellen Love Joy’s body was exhumed though she had died 5 years earlier her stomach was still intact it was sent to Dr wood for analysis he performed the same tests this time administering the substance to a dog producing death Ellen had also been poisoned with strick nine in

Addition the exam proved conclusively that Ellen was pregnant at the time of her death Edwin Major’s trial for murder began on September 13th 1875 though public sentiment was strongly against major the evidence against him was circumstantial the trial lasted about 12 days and after deliberating for 18 hours

The jury was hopelessly split and could not agree on a verdict the second trial held the following December lasted 4 days and after 2 hours of deliberation the jury returned a verdict of guilty he was sentenced to hang on January 5th 1877 in the year between sentencing and Major’s scheduled execution his

Supporters circulated a petition to commute his sentence to life in prison major was confident that he would not be executed and was devastating ated when the governor refused to petition major was hanged in Concord New Hampshire on January 5th 1877 at the scaffold he was pressed to

What seems to have been a near-death and outof body experience or depending on your perspective delirium he found himself floating a thousand miles above the Earth seas and continents shimmered in blue light and young could make out the Arabian Desert and snow tipped Himalayas he felt he was about to leave orbit but

Then turning to the South a huge black monolith came into view it was a kind of Temple and at the entrance young saw a Hindu sitting in a Lotus position within innumerable candles flickered and he felt that the whole fantasmagoria of Earthly existence was being being Stripped Away it wasn’t pleasant and

What remained was an essential young the core of his experiences he knew that inside the temple the mystery of his existence of his purpose in life would be answered he was about to cross the threshold when he saw rising up from Europe far below the image of his doctor in the archetypal

Form of the king of Co the island site of the Temple of asclepius great God of medicine he told young that his departure was premature many were demanding his return and he the King was there to F him back when young heard this he was immensely disappointed and

Almost immediately the vision ended he experienced the reluctance to live that many who have been brought back encounter but what troubled him most was seeing his doctor in his archetypal form he knew this meant that the physician had sacrificed his own life to save Young on April 4 1944 a date

Numerologists can Delight in young sat up in bed for the first time since his heart attack on the same day his doctor came down with septicemia and took to his bed he never left it and died a few days later young was convinced that he hadn’t simply hallucinated but that he

Had been granted a vision of reality he had passed outside time and the experience had a palpable effect on him for one thing the depression and pessimism that overcame him during World War II vanished but there was something more for most of his long career he had impressed upon his colleagues friends

And reading public that he was above all else a scientist he was not he repeated almost like a mantra a Mystic occultist or Visionary terms of abuse his critics who rejected his claims to science had used against him now having returned turned from the brink of death he seemed

Content to let the scientist in him take a backseat for the remaining 17 years of his life although young had always believed in the reality of the other world he had taken care not to speak too openly about this belief now after his Visions he seemed less reticent he’d had

It seems a kind of conversion experience and the interests the world famous psychologist had hitherto kept to himself now became common knowledge flying saucers astrology Paras pychology Alchemy even predictions of a coming New Age of Aquarius pronouncements on all of these dubious subjects dubious at least from the Viewpoint of modern science

Flowed from his pen if he had spent his career fending off charges of mysticism and occultism initially triggered by his break with Freud in 1912 by the late 1940s he seems to have decided to stop fighting the sage of kusok and hexenmeister of Zurich as young was

Known in the last decade of his life had arrived yet Young’s involvement with the occult was with him from the start literally it was in his DNA his maternal grandfather Reverend Samuel prior who learned Hebrew because he believed it was spoken in heaven accepted the reality of spirits and kept a chair in

His study for the ghost of his deceased first wife who often came to visit him Young’s mother em was employed by Samuel to Shee away the Dead who distracted him while he was working on his sermons she herself developed mediumistic powers in her late teens at

The age of 20 she fell into a coma for 36 hours when her forehead was touched with a RedHot poker she awoke speaking in tongues and prophesying Emily continued to Enter Trans States throughout her life in which she would communicate with the dead she also seemed to have been a

Split personality young occasionally heard her speaking to herself in a voice he soon recognized was not her own making profound remarks expressed with an uncharacteristic Authority this other voice had inklings of a world far stranger than the one the young Carl knew this split that young had seen in

His mother would later appear in himself at around the age of 12 he literally became two people there was his ordinary Boyhood self and someone else the other as Carl called him was a figure from the 18th century a masterful character who wore a white wig and buckled shoes drove

An impressive carriage and held the young boy in contempt it’s difficult to escape the impression that in some ways young felt he had been this character in a past life seeing an ancient green Carriage young felt that it came from his t time his later notion of the collective

Unconscious that psychic reservoir of symbols and images that he believed we inherited birth is in a sense a form of reincarnation and young himself believed in some form of an afterlife soon after the death of his father in 1896 when young was 21 he had two dreams in which

His father appeared so vividly that he considered the possibility of life after death in another later dream Young’s father asked him for marital advice as he wanted to prepare for his wife’s arrival young took this as a premonition and his mother died soon after and years later when his sister Gertrude died a

Decade before his own near-death experience young wrote that what happens after death is So unspeakably Glorious that our imaginations and feelings do not suffice to form even an approximate conception of it Young’s mother was involved in at least two well-known paranormal experiences that are recounted in practically every book about him sitting

In his room studying Carl suddenly heard a loud bang coming from the dining room he rushed in and found his mother startled the round wallnut table had cracked from The Edge past the center the split didn’t follow any joint but had passed through solid wood drying wood couldn’t account for it the table

Was 70 years old and it was a humid day young thought there certainly are curious accidents as if she was reading his mind Emily replied in her other voice yes yes that means something 2 weeks later came a second incident returning home in the evening young found an excited household an hour

Earlier there had been another loud crack this time coming from a large sideboard no one had any idea what had produced it young inspected the sideboard inside where they kept the bread he found a loaf and the bread knife the knife had shattered into several pieces all neatly arranged in

The Bread Basket the knife had been used earlier for tea but no one had touched it nor opened the cupboard since when he took the knife to a Cutler he was told that there was no fault in the steel and that someone must have broken it on

Purpose he kept the shattered knife for the rest of his life and years later sent a photograph of it to psychical researcher JB Ry by this time young like many others was interested in spiritualism and was reading through the literature books by Zer Crooks Carl Dell swedenborg and

Justinus kerner’s classic the Cirrus of pror at the zingia debating Society at the University of Basil he gave lectures on the value of speculative research and on the limit of exact science in which he questioned the dominant materialist Paradigm that reigned then as today young Le fellow students in various

Occult experiments yet when he spoke to them about his ideas or lectured about the need to take them seriously he was met with resistance apparently he had greater luck with his doxent whom he felt understood him better and could feel Supernatural presences himself another who seemed to feel Supernatural presences was his cousin

From his mother’s side of the family Helen pror in a letter to JB Ry about the shattered bread knife young refers to heli as she was known as a young woman with marked mediumistic faculties whom he had met around the time of the incident and in his so-called autobiography Memoirs dreams Reflections

He remarks that he became involved in a series of seances with his relatives after the incidents of the bread knife and table yet the seances have been going on for for some time before the two events and at their Center was heli whom young already knew well and who by

All accounts was in love with him this is an early sign of his somewhat ambiguous relationship with the occult heli would enter a trance and fall to the floor breathing deeply and speaking in Old Samuel priest work’s voice although she had never heard him she told the others that they should pray

For her elder sister Bertha who she said had just given birth to a black child Bertha who was living in Brazil had already had one child with her mixed race husband and gave birth to another on the same day as the Seance further seances proved equally startling at one

Point Samuel prior and Carl Young Senior Young’s paternal grandfather who had disliked each other while alive reached a new Accord a warning came for another sister who was also expecting a child that she would lose it in August the baby was born premature and dead hel produced further voices but the

Most interesting was a spirit named ivanus who called herself the real Helen priest workk this character was much more mature confident and intelligent than heli who young described as absent-minded and not particularly bright talented or educated it was as if buried beneath the unremarkable teenager was a fuller more commanding personality

Like Young’s other this was an insight into the psyche that would inform his later theory of individuation the process of becoming who you are heli did Blossom later becoming a successful dress maker in France although she died young at only the age of 30 in Young’s dissertation on the seances on the

Psychology and pathology of so-called occult phenomena he describes heli unflatteringly as exhibiting slightly ridic skull formation and somewhat pale facial color and fails to mention that she is his cousin he also omits his own participation in the seances and dates them from 1899 to 1900 whereas they had started years

Before Gerard wear politely suggests that the doctrinal candidate was obviously at pains to conceal his own role and especially his close kinship relationship thus forestalling from the start any further critical inquiry that might have thrown the scientific validity of the entire work into question in other words young the

Scientist thought it was a good career move to obscure young the occultists personal involvement in the Business we’ll continue to look into the life of the mysterious and strange Carl Young when weird Darkness Returns micro Terrors 10 scary stories for kids volume 1 is now available it includes 10 stories originally heard on the podcast including the creeping ghost space monster computer crash starved for

Detention and more plus two horrific Tales written by Young microt Terrors listeners micr Terrors 10 scary stories for kids volume 1 is available on Kindle or in paperback at microt terror.com In 1900 the 25-year-old young joined the prestigious burgold Ley Mental Clinic in Zurich here he did solid work in word association tests developed his theory of complexes and initiated a successful patient friendly approach to working with psychotics and schizophrenics it was during his tenure that he also became involved with Freud

From 1906 when they started corresponding to 1912 when the Friendship ruptured young was a staunch supporter of Freud’s work and promoted it unstintingly there were however some rocky patches one centered on the famous Poltergeist in Freud’s bookcase visiting Freud in Vienna in 1909 young asked him about his attitude toward Paras

Pychology Freud was skeptical and dismissed the subject as nonsense young disagreed and sitting cross from the master he began to feel his diaphragm glow as if it was becoming red hun suddenly a loud bang came from a bookcase both jumped up and young said to Freud there that is an example of a

So-called catalytic exteriorization phenomenon Young’s long-winded circumlocution for a poltergeist or noisy Spirit when Freud said BOS young predicted that another bang would immediately happen it did Young said said that from that moment on Freud grew mistrustful of him from Freud’s letter to Young about the incident one gets the

Feeling that he felt young himself was responsible for it this isn’t surprising young did manifest numerous paranormal abilities while in bed in a hotel room after giving a lecture he experienced the suicide of a patient who had a strong transference on him the patient had relapsed into depression and shot

Himself in the head young awoke in his Hotel feeling an odd pain in his forehead he later discovered that his patient had shot himself precisely where young felt the pain at the same time young woke up more to the point a visitor to his home once remarked about Young’s exteriorized libido how when

There was an important idea that was not yet quite conscious the furniture and woodwork all over the house creeped and snapped it was Young’s break with Freud that led to his own descent sent into the unconscious disturbing trip down the psyche’s rabbit hole from which he gathered the insights about the

Collective unconscious that would inform his own School of analytical psychology he had entered a creative illness unsure if he was going mad in October 1913 not long after the split young had depending on your perspective a vision or hallucination while on a train he suddenly saw a flood covering

Europe between the North Sea and the alpes when it reached Switzerland the mountains Rose to protect his homeland but in the waves he saw floating debris and bodies then the water turned to blood the vision lasted an hour and seems to have been a dream that had invaded his waking

Consciousness having spent more than a decade treating mental patients who suffered from precisely such symptoms young had reason to be concerned he was ironically rather relieved the next summer when World War I broke out and he deduced that his vision had been a premonition of it yet the psychic tension continued

Eventually there came a point where young felt he could no longer fight off the sense of madness he decided to let go when he did he landed in an eerie Subterranean world where he met strange intelligences that lived in his mind the experience was so upsetting that for a

Time Young slept with a loaded pistol by his bed ready to blow his brains out if the stress became too great in his red book he kept an account in words and images of the objective independent entities he encountered during his creative illness entities that had nothing to do with him

Personally but who shared his interior World there were Elijah and salom two figures from the Bible who were accompanied by a snake there was also a figure whom young called phiman who became a kind of inner Guru and who he painted as a bald white-bearded old man

With Bull’s horns and the wings of a king fisher one morning after painting the figure young was out taking a walk when he came upon a dead king fisher the birds were rare in Zurich and he had never before come upon a dead one this was one of the many synchronicities

Meaningful coincidences that happened at this time there were others in 1916 still in the grip of his crisis young again felt that something within wanted to get out an eerie restlessness filled his home he felt the presence of the dead and so did his children one daughter saw a strange white figure

Another had her blankets snatched from her at night his son drew a picture of a fisherman that he had seen in a dream a flaming chimney Rose from the fisherman’s head and a devil flew through the air cursing the fisherman for stealing his fish young had yet to

Mention phiman to anyone then one afternoon the doorbell rang loudly but no one was there he asked what in the world is this the voices of the Dead answered we have come back from Jerusalem where we found not what we sought words that formed the beginning of Young’s strange seven sermons to the

Dead book a work of spiritual dictation or channeling he attributed to basadas and Alexandria the city where the East toucheth the west by 1919 World War I was over and Young’s crisis had passed although he continued to practice what he called active imagination kind of waking dreaming the results of which he

Recorded in the red book but spirits of a more traditional kind were not lacking he was invited to London to lecture on the psychological foundations of the belief in spirits to the society for psychical research he told the society that ghosts and materializations were unconscious projections I have repeatedly observed he said the

Telepathic effects of unconscious complexes and also a number of Paras psychic phenomena but in all this I see no proof whatever of the existence of real spirits and until such proof is forthcoming I must regard this whole territory as an appendix of psychology scientific enough no doubt

But a year later again in England he encountered a somewhat more real ghost he spent some weekends in a cottage in elsbury rented by Maurice Nicole later a student of gsif and ensky and while there was serated by Eerie sounds while an unpleasant smell filled the bedroom

Locals said the place was haunted and on one particularly bad night young discovered an old woman’s head on the pillow next to his half of her face was missing he leapt out of bed and waited until morning in an armchair the house was later torn down one would think that

Having already encountered the dead on their return from Jerusalem Yang wouldn’t be so shaken by a traditional English ghost but the experience rattled him his account of it only appeared 30 years later in 1949 in an obscure anthology of ghost stories when his lecture for the spr was reprinted in the

Collected works in 1947 young added a footnote explaining that he no longer felt as certain as he did in 1919 that apparitions were explicable through psychology and that he doubted whether an exclusive psychological approach can do justice to the phenomenon in a later postcript he again admitted that his earlier explanation

Was insufficient but that he couldn’t agree on the reality of Spirits because he had no experience of them conveniently forgetting The Haunting in Alsbury but in a letter of 1946 to Fritz kungl a psychotherapist young admitted metas psychic phenomena could be explained better by the hypothesis of spirits than

By the qualities and peculiarities of the unconscious a similar uncertainty surrounds his experience with the I Ching the ancient Chinese Oracle with which he began to experiment in the early 1920s and which like horoscopes became part of his therapeutic practice although we mentioned the I Ching here

And there in his writing it wasn’t until 1949 again nearly 30 years later in his introduction to the classic Wilhelm Bane’s translation that he admitted outright to using it himself and although he tried to explain the I Ching’s efficacy through what would become his paranormal deos XM synchronicity young admits that the

Source of the Oracle insights are the spiritual agencies that form the living soul of the book A remark at odds with his quasi scientific explanation ironically his major work on meaningful coincidence synchronicity and a causal connecting principle from 1952 written by the physicist Wolf Gang Paulie provides only one unambiguous

Example of the phenomenon and readers who accept the reality of synchronicity Come Away slightly baffled by Young’s attempt to account for it via archetypes quantum physics statistical analysis mathematics JB Ryan’s experiments with ESP astrology telepathy pre cognition and other paranormal abilities all of which read like a recru desence of

Young’s I am a Scientist reflex in the 1920s he plunged into a study of the gnostics whom he’d encountered as early as 1912 and Alchemy he was young more than anyone else who salvaged the ancient hermetic Pursuit from intellectual Oblivion another hermetic practice he followed was astrology which he began to study

Seriously around the time of his break with Freud young informed his inner circle that casting horoscopes was part of his therapeutic practice but he was during the dark days of World War II that he recognized a wider application in 1940 in a letter to HB Baines young

Speaks of a vision he had in 1918 in which he saw fire falling Like Rain from heaven and consuming the cities of Germany he felt that 1940 was The crucial year and he remarks that it’s when we approached the Meridian of the first star in Aquarius it was he said

The premonitory earthquake of the new age he was familiar with the procession of the equinoxes the apparent backward movement of the sun through the signs of the zodiac by acting as a backdrop to sunrise at the vernal equinox each sign gives its name to an age called a

Platonic month which lasts roughly 2,150 years in his strange book ion in 1951 one he urges that the individuation of Western Civilization as a whole follows the path of the platonic months and presents a kind of procession of the archetypes fish symbolism surrounds Jesus because he was the central symbol

Of the age of Pisces the astrological sign of the fish previous ages of Taurus and Aries produce Bull and RAM symbolism the coming age is that of Aquarius the waterbearer in a conversation with Margaret asrai saak a friend of Herman hes young admitted that he had kept this secret knowledge to

Himself for years and only finally made it public in his book Aon he wasn’t sure he was allowed to but during his illness he received confirmation that he should although the Arcane scholar Gerald Massie and the French esotericist Paul lur had earlier spoken of a coming Age

Of Aquarius young was certainly the most prestigious mainstream figure to do so and and it is through him that the idea became a Mainstay of the counterculture of the 1960s and70s this was mostly through his comments about it in his book flying saucers a modern myth of

Things seen in the sky 1958 in which he argued that UFOs were basically mandalas from outer space during his crisis he had come upon the image of the mandala the Sanskrit magic circle as a symbol of psychic wholeness and he suggested that flying saucers were Mass archetypal projections formed by the psychic

Tension produced by the cold war that was heating up between Russia and America the Western World he argued was having a nervous breakdown and UFOs were a way of relieving the stress young wrote prophetically my conscience as a psychiatrist bids me fulfill my duty and prepare those few who will hear me for

Coming events which are in accord with the end of an era as we know from ancient Egyptian history they are symptoms of psychic changes that always appear at the end of of one platonic month and at the beginning of another they are it seems changes in the constellation of the psychic dominance

Of the archetypes or Gods as they used to be called which bring about longlasting transformations of the collective psyche this transformation started in the tradition of the age of Taurus to that of Aries and then from Aries to Pisces whose beginning coincides with the rise of Christianity

We are now nearing that great change when the spring Point enters Aquarius 10 years later The Fifth Dimension whose very name appropriated from the title song of the bird’s third LP suggests the cosmic character of The Mystic 60s had a hit song from the hippie musical hair echoing Young’s ideas and millions of

People all over the world believed they were witnessing the dawning of the age of Aquarius young died in 1961 just on the cusp of the occult Revival of the 1960s a Renaissance of magical thinking that he did much to bring about he was also directly responsible for the journey to

The east that many took then and continue to take today along with the I Ching Yang gave his impr premature to such hitherto Arcane items as the Tibetan Book of the Dead taism and Zen and without his intervention it’s debatable if these Eastern Imports would have enjoyed their modern

Popularity that he was in many ways a founding father of the Love Generation is seen by his clusion on the cover of The Beatles Sergeant Pepper lonely hearts club band album although young himself would have thought flower power sadly naive although for all his efforts he has been accepted by mainstream

Intellectuals his effect on popular culture has been immense and our contemporary Grassroots inner directed spirituality unfortunately associated with the new age has his name written all over it young himself may have been equivocal about his relationship with mysticism magic and and the Occult but the millions of people today who pay
