Your Soul Knows Something Science Forgot

Why Scientists (and the Rest of Us) Are So Afraid of the Spiritual


Let’s just say it: we’ve been trained out of believing in magic.


Not the rabbit-out-of-a-hat kind. The real kind. The kind that whispers through the wind when you’re alone in the desert. The kind that sends shivers through your body when someone across the world says I was thinking about you too. The kind that lives in dreams, synchronicities, and quiet moments of grace that logic cannot explain—but your soul knows to be true.


And yet… we reject it.


Especially those of us steeped in science, logic, data, and cause-and-effect. I say this as someone who’s spent her fair share of time in labs, running controlled experiments, publishing results in peer-reviewed journals. I believe in evidence. But I also believe we’ve mistaken material evidence as the only form of truth.


In Ky Dickens’ #TheTelepathyTapes, you can feel it. That resistance. The unease in the voices of scientists trying to rationalize away their own unexplainable experiences. She asks people to share moments of mental connection—of inexplicable knowing—and the stories pour out. But so do the disclaimers, the nervous laughter, the insistence that “I know it sounds crazy, but…”


Why are we so afraid to admit that there might be something more?


Because for centuries, access to the spiritual was something you had to buy—or beg for. Organized religion has long built its empire on the belief that spirit lives behind locked gates, accessible only through the priest, the pastor, the prophet. We were told not to trust our own intuition. Told that to speak directly to God or feel spirit moving through us was arrogance or blasphemy.


And so we severed ourselves from that direct connection.


The result? By accepting religion’s rules, our logical mind was forced to reject the mystical. The intuitive. The invisible. We told ourselves it was all superstition. That unless it could be weighed, measured, proven, it wasn’t real.


But here’s what I believe now:


That rejection has cost us dearly.


We live in a world filled with brilliance—and with emptiness. So many of us are anxious, numb, exhausted, cut off from purpose, desperate for connection and unable to find it. We scroll. We analyze. We optimize. We medicate. But underneath it all, we are yearning—for awe. For meaning. For a reason to believe that we matter beyond what we produce.


And we do.


You don’t need a robe or a pulpit or a PhD to talk to the divine. You don’t need a perfect life or perfect meditation practice to feel spirit move through you. All you need is willingness. Openness. A quiet moment where you ask, Is there more? and allow yourself to feel the answer.


This isn’t about abandoning reason. It’s about integrating it with wonder. About becoming whole.


Because when you let go of the belief that the material world is all there is—

You don’t become less rational.

You become more alive.


You start to feel again. You start to trust. You start to notice the little nudges, the cosmic winks, the impossible coincidences that just might be messages in disguise. You start to remember what it feels like to be loved—not just by people, but by life itself.


And maybe, just maybe, you start to flirt a little.

With the stars. With your intuition.

With the idea that this world is enchanted—

And always has been.


You start to feel again. You start to trust. You start to notice the little nudges, the cosmic winks, the impossible coincidences that just might be messages in disguise. You start to remember what it feels like to be loved—not just by people, but by life itself.
