This site is one of the first alchemy sites on the Web. It has information ranging from general historic data to alchemical journals and even an image of a reconstructed alchemical laboratory. Chemists and laymen alike will be fascinated by the online translated texts from the journals of alchemists. News of upcoming conferences, recommended books, and mailing lists are included, too, along with many other Web resources.
Although primarily a gallery of supernatural-themed paintings by VanJohnstone, the page cited here has some interesting basic information on alchemy. I even learned that Grandpa on "The Munsters" was an alchemist, and the character of Dr. Frankenstein, in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, was based on a real-life alchemist. The paintings are sort of cool, especially if you like macabre-sounding names. My favorite title was "Having Tea with Death"-about as anti-Grandma Moses as you can get!
Articles, reviews of books, bibliographies-some even in Chinese-and more are available at this site. It's well-organized and gives you handy descriptions of what's available before you go to the trouble of downloading it. "Golden Elixir," by the way, is the translation of jindan, one of the Chinese names for alchemy.
Here's the home page for what claims to be the leading school for "studies in the practical and philosophical aspects of alchemy." The Philosophers of Nature, based in Wheaton, IL (a rather unexotic location for such esoteric studies!), offer videotapes, newsletter articles, links to related sites, a FAQs page, an electronic bookstore, and more, but the courses are the main thrust of the site. The alchemical course consists of two parts: spagyrics (plant alchemy) and mineral alchemy. Check out the fascinating photo of a modern alchemical laboratory.
This site, sponsored by The Hahnemann Academy of North Americas, focuses more on the medical aspect of alchemy. Its library offers several sections, however, including one on spiritual alchemy. You can also join a mailing list to get more information on book release and seminar dates.
Spagyria is full of information about spagyrics, the branch of alchemy dealing with plants. Click one of the brightly colored flasks in the navigation bar to go to sections on online publications, products, membership information, and more. The herbal index is particularly interesting; click what ails you and get a list of herbs that just might help. There's even a helpful glossary for all those esoteric terms.
For $20.00 (payments are handled through the mail), you can get a personal astrology reading (sorry, folks, but Lisa's too cheap to test it out for you). Click Meet Barbara to see a photo of the blissful-faced woman who does the charts and read about her visits from her guardian angel Abraham. For the reports, you have your choice of your own personality profile, a child's personality profile, seeing what the future holds, finding out how location affects you, what "solar return" can mean for you, and get astrological info on friends and lovers.
Learn all about Asian astrology here. You can find specialized links to Chinese, Tibetan, and Vietnamese astrology. The site also offers current news in Asian astrology, a link to the Asian Astrology bookstore, and a mailing list. If you're so inclined, you can even send a Chinese astrology greeting card to your friends.
You have to register to use the services here, but it takes only seconds. Once you do, you can get all kinds of cool information about your astrological profile, including business partnerships, erotic profile (sorry, that information is classified!), your biorhythms, and something called synastry, which is your compatibility with a loved one. You'll need to know your birthdate and time and place of birth, of course, with the same data for people whose compatibility factor you're checking. There's also lots of clear, useful info on astrology in general. It's fun and it's free.
Excellent basic information about each sign. You can also check a compatibility guide to find which out signs you'll love or hate! Nice graphics, and soothing music plays in the background while you peruse the site.
This site claims to be the largest astrology site on the Internet. Could be-it's pretty big! Cool cloud background, attractive graphics, and clean layout, but the content is equally as good. If you're new to astrology, this site is an excellent starting point; even if you're an old hand at astrology, you'll probably learn something new. Very well-written, with clear, in-depth information; you'll find sections on astrology basics, explanations of each sign, weekly and daily horoscopes, compatibility comparisons, and more. You'll also find links to a dream analysis site and many other paranormal/spiritual sites. Michael, the site author, offers an unusual system of handling personalized reports; he sends 'em out first, and you pay later!
Features information about current lunar phases and signs, as well as reasons why people believe and dis-believe astrology. Astrologer Haizen Paige, whose interests and qualifications are described, handles personalized astrology reports (and the payments) by mail. You can read an article of his that appeared in Open Mind or his musings on why people are attracted to Sedona, Arizona, where he lives.
This site explains the ProZodiac project, which claims to have musically interpreted the movements of the planets through a "mathematical transformation" (sounds like more fun than an plain ole equation). You can listen to samples of the music (AU or AIFF format), which the site asserts is relaxing when used during meditation.
Granted, this site is the online host for GQ, Glamour, and Mademoiselle magazines, so you're not going to find scholarly information here. However, if you're looking for light, amusing horoscopes, and a quick outline to sign and compatibility information, try here. You can also find out your rising sign and moon, if you supply some information. SWOON will even email your dailiy horoscopes to you; occasionally, they're uncannily accurate!
One of the wittiest astrology pages on the Web, Kramer gives entertaining horoscopes rather than the usual predigested planetessimal fare. A refreshing look at astrology; for an extra laugh, check out the fine print at the bottom of the welcome page. Kramer will mail you a monthly astrological outlook for all the signs, too; check out the mailto link supplied.
This site maintains links to professional astrologers, student astrologers, national associations, and schools in 48 countries. Get information about how to register with this directory to find local astrologers and astrology-related bookstores in your area. Each entry lists address and phone information, as well as mailto links when email addresses are available.
This astounding multimedia tour of the planets offers a wealth of information about the mythological significance and scientific understanding of not only the nine planets, but also their moons and some other small astronomical bodies, such as comets and meteorites. Fascinating facts and images, all neatly organized, make this site an excellent educational tool for the astronomical and astrological novice. There's even a glossary and appendixes for further investigation.
You can get a free reading after supplying some information about yourself. Be forewarned, though: You need to know the latitude and longitude of the place you were born. If you don't have an atlas handy, the site links to a couple of resources where you can figure it out.
Here's a great introduction to the basics of astrology, written in a light, informal style. Justin, the site author, uses an acting metaphor to describe planets, signs, and houses-an interesting way to look at astrology. I found a few bits of info I hadn't heard before, like the tarot cards associated with each sign. Amusing graphics, plus a bibliography and page of varied online resources with interesting annotations.
All kinds of angel-related features, including a free monthly newsletter, an angel chat room, angel cards you can send by email, stories of angel visitations, and even a "cyber mall" so you can shop for all your angelic needs. Nice graphics and helpful navigation features.
Oooooo...scary, kids! Great site, with lots of ghost stories, a sepulchral chat room, a ghostly forum, and lots of supernatural links. Cool graphics (check out the chainlink used as a separator!), and the material is well-written. You can even submit your own tale of terror, if you like.
Great-looking site, with organization and content to match. Besides helpful links to other sites, you can learn the difference between banshides and doppelgangers, for instance; find out why some places are prone to hauntings; and read many bone-chilling stories. Great black-and-white photos and illustrations, and the green text on a black background is, well, ghostly!
More ghost stories than you can rattle a chain at, plus a questionnaire you can submit if you have a ghost story of your own to submit. Lots of links to other ghost sites, too.
Think it's just a photograph of a brick wall? O ye of little faith! The 24-hour-a-day "Web cam" is trained on the brick wall of a building erected on the site of Portland, Oregon's first cemetery, where ghostly handwriting is said to have mysteriously appeared from time to time. The photo is updated periodically throughout the day, and if you see anything, email at once! Comments from visitors who have seen handwriting are included. The eerie music gave me goosebumps, or maybe it was that skull face I saw on one of the bricks...
No, you won't find any UFO stories here! However, you will find all kinds of ghost stories from a variety of sources. Note: When you click a title that interests you, it opens up a new browser window, which I found a little irritating because of my somewhat slow computer. Interesting stories, though.
You'll find enough ghost stories here to keep you shivering by your fireplace all winter! Check out the index for a state-by-state listing of haunted places, too. Lots of links to other ghost sites.
If you're expecting winged graphics, you won't find them here. However, you'll find many stories about angel visitations written by the page author and other contributors. There are a few links to other related sites.
Beautiful site showing the haunted castle Reichenstein along the Rhine River of Germany. Not only does this site have a story of a man without a head, it gives you an informative tour of the stronghold, along with lots of photos, a map of the area, room rates, and contact information.
This site is a huge collection of ghost stories gathered from many sources. There are also some links to similar sites. No fancy graphics, just text, but some stories are definitely worth reading.
This article from The Weaver, an online spiritual publication, explains the connection between the number seven and the animal kingdom, through the upper and lower astral planes.
This site acts as an advertisement for numerologist Yaakov Kier, who studied under National Enquirer Psychic Frederick Davies. According to Kier, astro-numerology is a powerful combination of astrology and numerology. You can enter personal information and questions and email them to Kier at 150 bucks a pop. But hey, he offers a money-back guarantee if his predictions aren't accurate-what more could you ask for?
This site takes an unusual approach to art based on arcane law, geometry, and numerology. Go on an online quest to decipher and interpret the meaning of five works by Sir Peter Robson.

While you're here, you can have a look at glossaries of the meanings of gemstones and herbs and try "Perfect Planet," an interactive visualization feature. Nice clean graphics in a well-organized site.
You'll find information on a wealth of different topics at this exceptionally well-organized site, but there's an extensive numerology section.

It also offers a searchable index of pagan and occult groups; the ASC is based in Australia, but groups in other countries are included. You can also get a membership in the ASC.
This site offers resources on a variety of occult, mystical, and "magick" topics. It's still under construction, but it's a good place to check for some of the less-well-known sites and resources, including FTP sites and mailing lists.
This pagan/metaphysical gathering place seeks to promote the occult through links to events, artists, magazines, and, of course, merchandise sales. There's lots of well-organized, easy-to-find information here, including a spell book, an excellent dictionary of occult terms, and links to all kinds of cool places.
There's an amazing amount of information at this site! The author has obviously labored and sweated to search out the Internet for occult-related Web pages, FTP sites, newsgroups, mailing lists, and so on. Everything is neatly alphabetized, and there are descriptions for the newsgroups. The links to Web pages aren't annotated, unfortunately-maybe in the future. Check it out before you start looking elsewhere for pages on supernatural/occult/horror topics.
This is an extremely well-organized site; topics are arranged alphabetically, with links to click for the resource you're interested in. Shawn offers a variety of resources and covers a broad spectrum of subjects.
Just for the record, A.R.E. is the Association for Research and Enlightenment. This page discusses Cayce's beliefs on reincarnation and offers links to his thoughts on meditation, ESP, Atlantis, and the millennium, among others.
This site opens to an extremely confusing image map; looks like Jackson Pollock got hold of a typewriter. However, if you scroll down past that, you'll find links to sections that are at least readable. From what I could gather-struggling through the author's misspellings, random use of capital letters, and fondness for exclamation points-the site offers some sort of program you can download that has something to do with resurrecting the dead. Perhaps this site should have been called the Lazarus Home Page...It's oddly entertaining and has some links to other sites that are probably just as bizarre.
A very in-depth explanation of the theory of reincarnation and how it works. Joseph Morales examines the philosophical questions raised by the traditional Hindu theory of karma and offers several links to related sites. There's tons of information here, so be prepared to sit down and read.
You'll find some basic information on what past-life regression and reincarnation are and a short list of related articles. There's no real organization to the list, and the descriptions are brief; however, some are worth a look.
This page in Spirit Web's site discusses reincarnation based on the laws of karma. Author John Payne corrects misconceptions about karma and offers an anecdote, "Charlie, the Soul Story" to clarify the concept. This article is actually an excerpt from the online magazine Starseeds, published by Mr. Payne. His email address is included, if you'd like more information.
This second part of a three-part series of articles by Reverend Simeon Stefanidakis is a fascinating look at reincarnation and karma. The author dispels some of the myths about karma (it's more than just an "eye for an eye," for example) and outlines the degrees of karma, from individual to humankind. Link to Part Three for an absorbing account of the process of rebirth and some of the problems of past-life regression.
Don Showen transcribed this past-life regression session, which he taped in 1976. Written in a question-and-answer format; it makes fascinating-and occasionally eerie-reading.
Basically, one long essay on reincarnation and its principles by Benjamin Creme, an author, lecturer, and the British chief editor of Share International, a nonprofit organization. He also offers a few links to related sites.
I'm not sure who Joe is, but this page explores Joe's unified spirituality theory and his attempts to understand the meaning of life. He's also a big fan of Edgar Cayce, so he has several links to Cayce's ideas on reincarnation, Atlantis, dream interpretations, and more.
Interesting site-and it wins points for the title! A table of contents leads you to sections on several spiritual topics. Text-heavy, but the information on reincarnation is fairly in-depth, lively, and informative. There are tips on healing, diet, and vegetarianism, as well as a "spiritual tribute" to Edgar Cayce. Links to some related sites, too.

Joan Bunning offers an excellent in-depth online tarot tutorial. The entire package can also be downloaded from this site, which is an excellent place to start for those interested in entering the tarot realm. To test out a particular topic in more depth, I looked up the Celtic Cross spread (the most common way to lay out the tarot cards). Wow! Very clear, thorough explanation, including diagrams and a hypothetical example. The information is well written and interesting, too; this is definitely a site to bookmark. She also recommends books and lists links to other interesting sites.
A good tarot-for-beginners page, with the information clearly laid out. Michele offers tips, links to other tarot pages (and not-so-tarot pages), places to find tarot books and software, and links to tarot decks.
An interesting take on tarot-its interpretation is based on Pythagorean numerology, although the author also draws on Mediterranean mythology, alchemy, and Jungian psychology, to name a few. The cards are covered in depth, suitably divided into major and minor arcana. Take the time to view the images of the unusual deck created by the author-it's worth it.
This fascinating site not only covers typical tarot-it also shows you how to do tarot readings with regular playing cards. You'll find tarot FAQs, descriptions of many different, unusual layouts for the cards, tips for tarot experts, tarot spells, recommended books, and links to related sites.
This site claims to be the original tarot Web site, and it could well be because it's been offering free tarot readings since 1993. It has several different types of deck readings and covers several schools of tarot thought. One particularly nice feature is that after getting your reading with all the illustrations included, you can choose to get a "print-friendly" format without the graphics, in case you want a paper version to refer to later. You'll also find links to tarot-related topics and other occult interests.
This site gives you information on tarot relating to the Book of Thoth, using the beautifully illustrated Crowley deck. Cool organization-the author has set up the site sections in what looks like tabbed folders at the top of the frame. In the Cards section, there's an interesting interactive feature-you can submit your interpretation of what a particular tarot card means. Hans (the author) publishes them and responds to many of the comments. A booklist with reviews includes links to Amazon.com, and the links section is short, but illustrated and annotated.

Whew...just goes to show you what happens when you have some spare time on your hands and an active imagination! Find out about the alien invasion that's been taking place since 1923; check out the mischief these aliens have caused (crop circles, to start with), read the "flame" message they've left for us humans, see pictures of the Sinoel Roc's home planet and spacecraft, investigate the government conspiracy (oh, come on! you knew there had to be one!) surrounding their invasion, and much more. The featured alien bears an uncanny resemblance to my first boyfriend, by the way.

This home page for the organization supplies historical UFO information (including the interesting tidbit that Charlemagne supposedly saw a UFO in 810) and outline's BUFORA's research goals. It also discusses BUFORA's publication, UFO Times, and annual meetings. BUFORA seems to take a very even-handed approach to UFO sightings, acknowledging that man-made and natural phenomena can account for many.
A wealth of information on the cover-up, the conspiracy, sightings, and even a Newsweek poll. Even the staunchest skeptic will find enough articles, reports, images, and stories to make him or her think twice.

For the participation-minded, there are plenty of discussion boards and even a chat room. The author adds a disclaimer, stating he's not responsible for lost time, unexplained scars, brightly colored lights in the sky, or other signs and symptoms.
Text-heavy site with lots of information; the author's exchange of letters with President Clinton about Area 51, and the responses, are pretty interesting. There's also a NASA links page, where you can see many photos and images, a link to the International UFO Museum and Research Center in Roswell, the author's report of a trip he took to the Little A'Le'Inn and the Area 41 Research Center in Nevada.
Describes the plight of Budd Hopkins' work with PBS, and PBS's handling of the material. Hopkins, who has written two books on alien abductions, accuses the show of a message that "...all people who claim to be abductees are delusional, victims of repeat hallucinations...". The site also has links to letters exchanged between Nova's producers and abductees who were interviews for the show.
For the Web's flip side of the UFO phenomena, try this site. The author explains how to create your own UFOs and crop circles, and apparently, the fakes work quite well! Reports from many contributors relate creating their own pranks or being the victim of one.
For our northern neighbors, here's a site devoted to UFO sightings in Canada. You'll also find links to all kinds of Canadian UFO-related organizations, lists of books, and a whole page of links to articles about MIBs (Men in Black-the actual people, not the movie).

You've waited for it, and here it is-the home page for X-Philes. You'll find all sorts of X-Files information, from fan club news to episode surveys and guides and frequently asked questions. There are also lots of links to other X-Files-related sites.
And here's the more "official" X-Files site...You'll find well-organized sections on bios of the principals and staff, an episode guide, show information, videos and collectibles, and a fan forum. This site is one of the hardest to see that I've run across; the gray text on a black background is extremely hard to read, and the shadowy photo of Mulder and Scully on the welcome page is barely discernible. (Note for you hardcore X-Philes: They misspelled Mitch Pileggi's name!)
This site contains an article from Djembe Magazine by N. Adu Kwabena-Essem discussing the Catholic Church's recent recognition of the religions of Africa and its apology for years of scorn. The inner workings of juju and its relation to daily life are covered, along with an interesting explanation of voodoo's move from West Africa to Haiti.
Informative text-only page provides a lengthy discussion about the origins of voodoo and attempts to clear up some misconceptions about the religion. The article also addresses differences in Haitian, Creole, and African voodoo. An interesting tidbit is that the word voodoo, depending on how you spell it, can mean "introspection into the unknown."
Home page of Angelique Kidjo gives a modern-day look at the role of voodoo practices in daily life of the residents of Benin. There are a few great photos of West African voodoo ceremonies. You can even see a QuickTime video of a zangbeto, an ancestor who comes back to scare off burglars, or listen to Angélique tell you the story of Hwegbaja.

Some fun photos and cool, creepy graphics. At one of the links, you can submit an account of your own paranormal experience, if you like.
A thorough table of contents leads you to in-depth information on the history and practices of vodun (voodoo). Click a topic that interests you to go to well-written articles with fascinating photos. I'd suggest checking out the glossary first to familiarize yourself with some of the terms; however, these terms are also hyperlinks within the articles, which makes it easy to look them up as you read. This site even offers a bibliography, index, and list of other Internet resources. The latter is excellent, ranging from a newsgroup (alt.religion.orisha) to online voodoo stores.
Superb graphics make this voodoo page worth visiting. Think of your question, click the "begin" hyperlink, and then take a look at some voodoo tarot cards (with beautiful, compelling illustrations) and an interpretation of their meanings (just for the record, and the cards do change with each visit). Links also can be found to Mardi Gras pages.

The site also features downloadable images of Elizabeth, updates on the original cast members, and a silly slide show.
You'll find a medley of information here, including a great page of links to sites on pagan and Wicca beliefs. Cool graphics, little animations (I especially liked the one of Felix the Cat), music, photos, and a lively writing style make this an engaging site to visit. And, Brenna is a self-professed pagan and witch who tries to set the record straight on what that means.
This site uses the "Malleus Malificarum," a 15thcentury witch-hunting manual, as well as other literary and reference resources, to explore witchcraft from a historical viewpoint.

This site begins with a fitting quote from Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene, which gives you an idea of the historical/literary focus here. A wealth of reports on many aspects of the witch-hunting craze from 1100-1800 are accompanied by interesting prints, graphics, and paintings. You can also find links to other related sites.
