Psychometry examined in the light of spirit teachings


Created by the American physician and professor of physiology Joseph Rhodes Buchanan, the term psychometrics arose before the advent of Spiritism, as shown by Eurípedes Kühl in the Special entitled "Psychometrics", in which he recalls that the term psychometrics designates the mediumistic faculty by which the medium, in contact with objects, people or places related to past events. It is so attuned to the objects, people or places that he is able to describe them with precision. The article is one of the highlights of this edition.

Another highlight is the interview that the confrere Mário Cesar Nogueira gave to Orson Peter Carrara. He was born in Mirassol (SP), where he resides, our interviewee is the current president of the Vicente de Paulo Spirit Centre, an institution that celebrates its centennial anniversary this year. In the interview, Mário Cesar talks to us, among other subjects, about the House he presides, his activities and the celebrations of its 100th birthday.

The movie Predestinado - Arigó and the spirit of dr. Fritz should have been launched in June, however, the premiere had to be postponed for the reasons we all know: the pandemic that affected the country. Starring Danton Mello and Juliana Paes, the feature film focuses on the story of José Pedro de Freitas, a medium from Minas Gerais. Zé Arigó, who became the hope of healing for millions of people in the 1950s and 1960s, as shown by a special article written by Angélica Reis.
