Another for Wonky

What do the folks in Japan think of Masaru Emoto?

Have you ever read any of his books regarding tests with water crystals?

I'm now reading his latest: <i> The Miracle of Water </i> 2007.

There are of course the usual debunkers.

I've never heard of him, and I doubt he's widely known...sorry!

Have you been able to recreate this feat on your own?

Dumbo knew that positive thought would do wonders for him. Then again, Dumbo was a fictional character who believed positive thought counted for something in isolation.

The hydrogen bonding between H atoms in the polar water molecule not only (and strangely) decreases mass but also happens to boggle the hell out of anyone who prefers mysticism to hard facts and realistic truths.

Water is miraculous for many reasons, one of which is that stupid people just don't seem to dry up.

Try the water experiements with Coke. I use them in my classes. You get a visual, a taste, and ph change that is a very easy to observe.

Two four ounce glasses of Coke. One is set aside as a control. The other you place ****near you and send positive energy into in the manner that you are most accustomed to. Give yourself about twenty minutes for the experiment.

The control Coke remains as Coke. Fizzy, somewhat acidic, and the usual sweet taste.

The 'loved' Coke goes flat, and grows much sweeter, and it loses much of its acidic taste. The Ph level drops too.

*****Don't hold the Coke you are projecting into. It makes the skeptics grow bat @!#$ because, of course, as soon as you touch a carbonated beverage it goes flat (irony there). But only when conducting metaphyical experiments...

I've combined the two with energetically charged icecubes placed in Coke. And regular ice cubes placed in Coke. You see the same changes but to a lesser extent. Its a less dependable experiment but i'm still fiddling with it.

Liza,

That was beautiful and serene. Thanks.

Check out this clip about Emoto's work from the film, "What the Bleep do we Know?"

"If thoughts can do that to us, imagine what our thoughts can do to us."

Agreed. Especially if those thoughts are positive thoughts. There will always be those who doubt the aftereffects of positive thinking processes. I'm not one of those doubters. I am a firm believer that if you believe in yourself, in time, all things good will come to thee. Ya just have to let go of the negative ones...:)

darn typo

If thoughts can do that to water...

Liza, thanks for posting those links. Was too tired last night to look for them. You're the one who first told me about the "What the Bleep Do We Know" video -- fascinating!

Doggies wag their tails when they pick up your good thoughts, kitties purr -- water crystals are affected too. As are plants. And why not?

There's lots we're still finding out about this wondrous Universe! :-)

*_*

Thought I'd add a little something to this thread -- the one where we can digress/divert/detour. :-)

You know why all this talk about spiritual matters? Because the sun is now in the sign of Scorpio!

Which reminds me: Mangy, don't you have a birthday in here somewhere?

*_*

Yeah, I've been wondering about the Rogue Mutt also. He's born on the cusp, eh?

Um, yeah, me aggressive? Nope. Me be passive&aggressive. Now give me the candy right now! ;-D

Dagnabit - I was supposed to say please...

I'll be darned if I'll add any more posts to cat's "perspective" thread. Isn't he that guy who gets his jollies from seeing 100-plus in his threads? He denies this, but some of us know better. :-P

cat said, <i> I want astrology to be real and true...</i> How come? Because you think you've got such a hot-shot chart? Why not take this astrology business with a grain of salt -- no need to angst over the "truth" of it! (Maybe I should be curious to know why I've correctly guessed more than 15 people's sun signs after knowing them for only a short while. Somebody explain me <i> that!</i>)

We need to know the exact minute of birth (along with all the other data) to get the most accurate chart interpretation. How many know ours for certain? Can we trust what's written on the birth certificates? If we do know for sure, well then maybe that's a start.

I have a (ditsy, what else) friend who lives in Florida. Whenever things look bleak for her (often), she often calls and asks if Venus or Jupiter is in her sign "yet" -- 'cause that's when she finds love/a new job/whatever.

I usually sigh, drag out my ephemeris, and tell her that Jupiter stays in one sign for at least a year, that it's not "in" hers at that time, and that Venus is nowhere near her sun sign but that it might be making aspects to her such-and-such. (After all these years, she still can't understand what I'm talking about -- <i> nor does she try to.</i>)

We usually end the astrology part of the conversation with me (again) suggesting she contact a professional astrologer -- one who does progressions, and therefore predictions. I'm certainly not qualified (Liza might be though!).

As for me, I'm more interested in finding a good psychic-medium. Now <i> they're </i> kinda fun! :-)

cat, if the subject <i> really </i> interests you, here's some more astrology babble. Some of it might be heavy reading:
