Mystic Magazine, October 1954

MYSTIC MAGAZINE, October 1954, Issue 6 This bimonthly publication edited by Ray Palmer contains spiritualist, UFO, and occult-oriented content. Featured stories include Matthew Angelucci's "My Awakening on Another Planet," Dorothy Martin's "The Star That Moved," and accounts by Waldo T. Boyd and Waynita Norris of supernatural experiences. Articles cover practical mysticism—instructions for making a magic mirror by Ray Starr and psychometry for divination by Dorothy Spence Lauer. The issue includes a "Saucer Roundup" by Tom Cornelia Jr., channeled communications from Mark Probert's séance controls, an account of actress Joan Fontaine's palmist reading, and fiction entries including Sanandana Kumara's "The Holy Man" and Melva Rogers's "What Is to Be." Palmer's editorial discusses President Eisenhower's addition of "under God" to the Pledge of Allegiance alongside commentary on the Oppenheimer security hearing, framing both as expressions of national spiritual values.
