New Tours are filling fast.
The tours for June are becoming filled so reserve your spaces now. The upcoming tour on Friday the 13th is almost full at this time as is the "Haunted Mission" tour set for Saturday the 21st. The tour of Santa Barbara Mission is still in limbo at this time. Many are urging Mr. Senate to do this tour but he has yet to make up his mind. The flood of e-mails has helped him. But numbers of subscribers who wish to go on this tour would help.
Debbie Senate becomes a Reverend.
Those who give readings and share their psychic gifts have long known that their gifts can be turn against them. People have been imprisoned for giving police information under the false notion that they know so much only because they were somehow involved. Others have faced problems being accused of giving advise without being licensed psychologists or marriage therapists. Once Debbie faced problems when she had given a reading to a woman and the husband, a devote religious follower of a splinter Baptist church, threatened her with legal action. Debbie has taken steps to become a minister to find some protection against such actions.
"It is not a step I have taken for tax purposes, but only so that I may use my God given talents to help others," she reported. He ordination certificate is proudly framed and displayed in the family office. Debbie will not take the title of Reverend save when she is performing some ministerial duty such as a house blessing, wedding, or spiritual reading.
Quote of the Day:
"Let he who craves for adventure find it in psychic research"

Dust woman seen at Olivas Adobe!
Recent account of a strange sighting at the historic Olivas Adobe has surfaced. A man driving down Olivas Park drive in Ventura witnessed a bizarre apparition. The sun had just set and before the house, on a small roadway, they saw the semi transparent image of a woman who seemed to be made of dust! It resembled a "Dust Devil", those mini tornadoes that kick up dust, but this one had the shape of a woman with a long skirt. Was this a natural event or ghostly visitation? This newsletter asks if others have seen this sort of event anywhere else?

On Ley Lines
They were first discovered by an English Brewer named Albert Watkins in 1921. They are invisible lines of psychic energy that grid the earth. They have been linked to haunted places, UFO events, as well as odd sightings. Where these lines cross are called "Nodes" and they seem to effect human psychic gifts, enhancing them. The lines are felt by people on a psychic level. They link holy places, shrines, old churches and burial sites.
They can be detected by dowsing. Just as there are positive Ley lines there are also negative ones that can cause ill health. They are called by dowsers "black streams" and are believed by some to cause cancer and other illnesses. Some dowsers believe that these line can be bent and changed from negative to positive.
In Nazi Germany Ley lines were taken seriously by the SS. A Herr Wilhelm Teudt believed they branched out from a large rock formation called "Exrernsteine" (used for pagan worship ages ago) in central Germany. He believed that the right uses of this geodetic forces made Germany the most powerful nation on the planet and her people destined to rule all mankind.
Do Ley lines exist in Ventura County? It seems so and they are said to be found at the Cross above the city (once a pagan shrine). Are these positive lines or negative? Could they be effecting the people of Ventura? Do ghosts, as some suspect, use Ley lines as ways to get around? Perhaps experiments can answer these questions.
New sighting at Bella Inn
Recently the staff at the historic Bella Magorri Inn on California Street in Ventura reported new activity in haunted room 17. The staff were in the room and found that something had locked them in the room? Try as they could they couldn’t get the door to open until they asked the ghost "Sylvia" to open it for them. There might be three ghosts at the 1927 Bed and Breakfast, The phantom woman Sylvia, a hippie called "John" who died of a drug overdose, and a 19th century girl, called "Alice," who was murdered on the site before the hotel was built.
Message from Mr. Senate
Two more psychics have come forth with dire predictions about Sen. Obama. They see negative things hovering around him and possible violence coming to him. One saw bad things happening to his wife as well. "Its like the dark forces are gathering against him," one reported. Let's all send positive energy to Senator Obama, even if you disagree with him, let his fate be decided by the electorate and not a small group of deranged fanatics. Richard Senate
