The Secrets of SkinWalker Ranch- TV Series Review

I have watched this TV Series from Season 1 to now on its 5th Season with great pleasure and awe as the story unfold. This season  I learned a new topic, " Remote Viewing". using psychics to draw what they see based on the location given to them.  So what is Remote Viewing?

"Remote viewing is defined as the ability to acquire accurate information about a distant or non-local place, person or event without using your physical senses or any other obvious means. It’s associated with the idea of clairvoyance, seemingly being able to spontaneously know something without actually knowing how you got the information. It is also sometimes called “anomalous cognition” or “second sight.”

Many of us experience this from time to time as an intuitive flash of insight that turns out to be correct. Many well-known entrepreneurs and business people, like George Soros, Conrad Hilton, Thomas Alva Edison and Akio Morita, the co-founder of Sony, have attributed their business success to this ability. And we’ve all seen natural psychics perform seemingly amazing feats of mental skill on TV.

The difference between natural psychic receptivity and remote viewing is that the latter is a trained skill, a controlled process, that the average person can learn to do, to some degree or another ". (https://www.gaia.com/article/what-is-remote-viewing) 

I do not fully believe in it, but the results speak for itself.  Here's what Wikipedia say about this TV series:  

Skinwalker Ranch and the surrounding area have been referred to as "UFO alley" since the 1950s when numerous anomalous events and strange activity began occurring. A team of scientists and experts conducts a thorough and daring search of the infamous 512-acre property in Utah's Uinta Basin in an attempt to find out the answers behind more than 200 years of UFO sightings, strange animal mutations, and paranormal related mysteries. Scientists use the latest in cutting-edge technology, like ground-penetrating radar and drones, to seek shocking discoveries.

The TV series is now in its 5th Season and I am still enjoying it.  Here's the summary of the 5th Season.   

The fifth season of The HISTORY Channel’s popular series “The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch” tracks the boldest efforts yet of ranch owner Brandon Fugal and his team led by principal investigator Erik Bard and astrophysicist Dr. Travis Taylor to reveal the ultimate truth behind the infamous 512-acre anomalous property in Northeastern Utah. The mysterious area known as the Triangle remains a key focus for the team, while Erik and Travis lead new operations in the adjacent area known as the East Field; a location where they have previously captured footage of UAPs, and discovered ancient Native American petroglyphs and rock formations depicting interdimensional portals.

Additionally, this season follows the team as they conduct new advanced technology, drilling, and digging operations that leave them stunned with new discoveries. As they employ their most invasive operation to date, it is revealed that what the team could be dealing with is not only something that is not of this world, but that may also be related to other phenomena that they have encountered across the property thus far.

Last but not least, Last Night CandleLight Concert was another live musical event that I enjoyed very much. The highlights of the One hour acoustic guitar presentation were Cohens's Alleluia and My Cheating Heart. Thank you, David Landon for a fun one hour musical Saturday evening here at THD.

Again Kudos to Galen for another successful CandleLight Concert!   

The Four Types of Intelligence Quotient

I found the following article on my FaceBook Page Today. I found it very interesting, so I am sharing it with you,

"According to Psychologists, there are four types of Intelligence:

1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)

2) Emotional Quotient (EQ)

3) Social Quotient (SQ)

4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)

1. Intelligence Quotient (IQ): this is the measure of your level of comprehension. You need IQ to solve maths, memorize things, and recall lessons.

2. Emotional Quotient (EQ): this is the measure of your ability to maintain peace with others, keep to time, be responsible, be honest, respect boundaries, be humble, genuine and considerate.

3. Social Quotient (SQ): this is the measure of your ability to build a network of friends and maintain it over a long period of time.

People that have higher EQ and SQ tend to go further in life than those with a high IQ but low EQ and SQ. Most schools capitalize on improving IQ levels while EQ and SQ are played down.

A man of high IQ can end up being employed by a man of high EQ and SQ even though he has an average IQ.

Your EQ represents your Character, while your SQ represents your Charisma. Give in to habits that will improve these three Qs, especially your EQ and SQ.

Now there is a 4th one, a new paradigm:

4. The Adversity Quotient (AQ): The measure of your ability to go through a rough patch in life, and come out of it without losing your mind.

When faced with troubles, AQ determines who will give up, who will abandon their family, and who will consider suicide.

Parents please expose your children to other areas of life than just Academics. They should adore manual labour (never use work as a form of punishment), Sports and Arts.

Develop their IQ, as well as their EQ, SQ and AQ. They should become multifaceted human beings able to do things independently of their parents, teachers & coaches.

Finally, do not prepare the road for your children. Prepare your children for the road."

Wishing you have raised your children and your children raised your grandchildren, the Balance-Four Types of Intelligence. If you have, I guarantee your children and grandchildren will have a happy and successful life.
