Metaphysics is not easy to define, but metaphysics is the study of reality, study of being and existence, study of worldly nature, study of spiritual existence and how it all interacts with each other through forces that can be seen or not be seen. Metaphysics is a type of philosophy that has roots to Ancient Greek philosophers such as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.
The term metaphysics in today's world has come to represent and include many categories of topics such as: psychics, psychic readings, clairvoyance, Tarot, numerology, astrology, and runes. It also includes the paranormal, spirituality, reincarnation, magic, divination, esp, shamanism, paganism, the "Craft", magical properties of crystals, herbs, oils, and charms. It encompasses meditation, astral projection, dreams, and more .
It embodies questions like:
Is there a God or spirit world? ; Who am I? ; Why am I here?; What is the meaning of life? ; Is there an afterlife? ; What is reality? ; How do people and nature interact and why in relation to these questions?
It is through these questions that one works through the philosophy of metaphysics and it depends on one's personal preferences and intuitions as to what metaphysical sources, methods and tools he or she uses to try and answer them. It is a personal quest of spirituality. My personal quest has included all of the above and I consider myself a shaman.
Unfortunately in today's world, people frown upon what they don't understand. Fortunately, a person's spirit or soul does not need the validation from someone else to know what spiritual path it is on. Ironically, that validation comes from personal faith and conviction from a metaphysical web of coincidental happenings.These ironic or coincidental happenings are the universe's way of ringing the metaphysical bell of the soul. So when the universe rings your bell, it is entirely up to you on how you choose to answer.
