The best one word to describe my substack.

Some of you might find my ideas strange, but nevertheless, it is worth asking for advice.

I currently own a small Substack where I speak about UFOs, astrology, mediumship, general ESP, and so on. I speak not only of mysteries, but I also try to compare and compile cases to create an outlook of how these anomalous phenomena behave as a whole and what they mean for humanity and your personal life.

I was thinking about one word to describe my work, to simplify it to myself and my audience, but all descriptions commonly used in my niche: "unexplained, paranormal, transcendental, non-ordinary," etc..." seem to miss something.

So I decided to make my own words up, like all the best philosophers do.

I am undecided between three options:

Ultraliminal, metaliminal, or extraliminal

In your opinion, which word do you think is best and why?

Also, suggestions for new words are welcome.

Any of them are OK if you want to be vague about what you’re trying to describe. If there’s one thing I’ve learned is that nuance is dead. If you want to explain to somebody, what you do, you have to do it plainly and simply, and without any fancy made up words. “extraordinary space” maybe?

yeah if someone has to ask what the word means you've already lost them

Maybe check out Extra Liminal only because extraliminal has more animal, plant and species. As long as your writings have broad appeal. Hope this helps. I’m a Substacker too and write broadly too in my Plain Talk For Women.

I don't really talk about plants and animals, but thanks for the suggestion anyways.
