Paranormal X-Rays

In the British Association President’s Address, Sir William Crookes referenced Roentgen waves, what we now call X-rays.[1] Do you know how they got that name? In early texts, he referred to them as Chi-waves, after the Greek letter Chi, which resembles an X. Chi is also associated with Christ, as it’s often used as shorthand for his name. Interestingly, Chi is another pronunciation for Qi, the concept of vital energy or life force in Chinese philosophy. There’s no coincidence with language or names…there never is. I believe that this “Christ Energy” or “Vital Force” is a type of plasma ray or emission.

It was also stated at the time that the “X” stood for the unknown, an unknown type of radiation or communication. This mystery is what inspired Nikola Tesla to investigate radiant matter or energy. After observing damage to photographic film in his lab that seemed to be caused by Crookes tube experiments, Tesla began making his own X-ray images using high voltages and tubes of his design, as well as Crookes tubes.

X-rays were formally discovered by Wilhelm Röntgen in 1895. While working with a cathode-ray tube, Röntgen observed that it emitted mysterious rays that could pass through solid objects and create images of bones or metal on photographic plates. The way Röntgen found these “X-rays” is telling, he noticed a glowing green emission, much like the color from Coronium and Nebulum, while studying Crookes tubes.

Think about it: the high-energy photon interaction in the creation of an X-ray image literally impresses an image onto a surface, exposing hidden layers of our reality. That faint green glow observed in early X-ray experiments could be more than just a byproduct of the process. It might hint at the involvement of a higher state of plasma or plasma-consciousness interaction.

Possibly a crossover into or out of dimensional coherence. Plasma is a vehicle for information, so this green glow could symbolize the interplay between light, matter, and the deeper layers of creation. It invites us to consider whether such high-energy interactions reveal not just the physical structures of our bodies but also the underlying mechanisms by which reality itself is projected and sustained.

The discovery of X-rays sparked reactions ranging from scientific curiosity to paranormal speculation. X-rays, along with wireless communication, were associated with the concept of aether—a mysterious medium thought to permeate space and transmit energy. At the time, plasma had not yet been named or understood, so aether became a placeholder for these invisible forces. X-rays were also linked to telepathy and other paranormal phenomena, as they seemed to demonstrate the existence of invisible forces capable of affecting reality at a distance. Many occultists and physical researchers believed these new technologies held the key to mind reading and other psychic abilities.[2]
