- Vacillators: patients sometimes underestimate and sometimes overestimate their age. A subgroup gives two different fixed ages (one over and one under their real age).
Other organic brain disease patients also mistake their age. Temporal recognition disorder may be their primary symptom, while schizophrenic patients have abnormal time experience. The patient wants to objectify and manipulate their age as a number. Believing in their subjective age seems to allow them to reunify or rewrite their own past history and gain some hope for the future.

Beira, Queen of Winter
- (age stasis, old aged) Dark Beira (Cailleach Bheara), mother of all gods in Scotland, reigned each winter. Beira did not die of old age because every spring she drank the magic waters of the Well of Youth which bubbles up in the Green Island of the West. On the first of the lengthening days of spring, Beira sat beside the Well of Youth, waiting for the dawn. If a bird drank first, or a dog barked ere she began to drink, dark old Beira would crumble into dust. As soon as Beira tasted the magic water, in silence and alone, she began to grow young again. She rose up as a beautiful girl with long hair yellow as buds of broom, cheeks red as rowan berries, and blue eyes that sparkled like the summer sea in sunshine. As each month went past, however, Beira aged quickly. She reached full womanhood in midsummer, and when autumn came on her brows wrinkled and her beauty began to fade. When the season of winter returned once again, she became an old and withered hag, and began to reign again as the aged but fierce Queen Beira, fearsome to look upon. She imprisoned Bride, the youthful goddess of spring and growth.
Once a year, when the night on which she was transformed comes round, Ness (Nessa) arises out of the river in her girl form, and sings a sad sweet song in the pale moonlight.

Bible Companion On Hiv/aids
- (AP TF, AP TG) c2011 online text.
"... during one of my missionary campaigns to the city of Lagos, the confession of a 12-year-old demonized marine spirit possessed girl stunned my heart. This girl had demonic power to transform herself into an adult male personality. She would take on the face of any of the handsome pastors in her Church at night. She would move with the person's personality to have sexual intercourse with any beautiful lady of her choice amongst her Church members.
Sometimes too, she may decide to drop her own body and transformed herself into a female adult sister of her church. She will in the beauty, gaiety and personality of the body she had assumed, moved into the house of a brother, likely one of her Church evangelists also, to consume her lustful passion with that minister.
According to her confession, she takes delight in doing those dirty things at will."

"...she will give him a birthday party ... again and again until he is older than everybody else ... He will be bigger (or older). He will be bigger than everybody ... it is a good idea ... It's not good to have so many birthdays so close together, because ... he will get to his age suddenly and the kids will start envying him, and all sorts of trouble can start ... instead of growing older and older, he would like now to grow younger and younger ... If he wants to, it's possible. He will be younger ... it's good that way, because he won't be old anymore."

body elongation and expansion
- (adult sudden size increases, RN)
Great Amherst Mystery - Nova Scotia, 1878: 18 y.o. Esther Cox's body repeatedly swelled up to an abnormal size during Poltergeist hauntings. The physicians could do nothing. In a short time the trouble always subsided.
Katie Cook seance - The medium's arm elongated to such an extent it reached the other side of the table. The limb must have stretched 3 times its natural length.
- The mediums Frank Herne, J. J. Morse, Eusapia Palladino, and Rosina Thompson also demonstrated body elongation. An arm was said to have grown six inches.

body elongation
- (adult extension) "I once watched my leg grow about an inch." 2/5/09,
6 years ago: "I think I should have you pray for my hip."
She sat me in a chair with my legs stretched out on a chair in front of me so that the difference in length was apparent. Then she prayed and three of us (her 9 y.o. daughter was there) watched my other leg grow... literally, right before our eyes. Finally the woman said to me, with as much shock in her voice as I felt, "did you see that?" We all nodded.
I remember what it felt like too...I think I would expect it to feel like stretching if your limb grew, but it actually felt like a sort of pushing or sliding...from the inside, along my femur. That was the part that had me dumbfounded even more than the watching...the feeling. So I stood up then, and as soon as I did I knew I was taller. I guess that makes sense, my leg grew, but that surprised me too. I felt taller.
I definitely have no doubt that it happened and that it was definitely outside of naturally occurring incidents, but here's the thing. My hip pain never got any better...it is aching right now as I sit here typing. I don't really think of it as a "miracle". It's more of a dog and pony magic trick to me.
But it did happen. When Steve got home I made him measure me. I couldn't get over the "taller" feeling. I measure 5'8" now. My medical records and driver's license insist that I'm only 5'7", but I can show you otherwise. I'm taller. I just don't know why. How's that for strange and random? - (Jen)

body elongation
- (adult height increase, RN) article in "Light" (1902/05/10, p. 223), John E. Purdon:
"On one occasion in my quarters at the Sandown Hospital, Isle of Wight, I held the feet of Miss Florence Cook firmly against the floor, and can certify that there was no lifting of the heels, either with or without her boots, and that there was such an elongation that my brother-in-law, the late assistant-surgeon, Mark A. Kilroy, whose hands were on her shoulders, cried out 'She is dragging me up to the ceiling.' As he was over 5'9" in height there could have been no posturing that would account for his experience. Further, I most distinctly remember Miss Cook coming back with a jerk to her normal stature. My wife, who was present and heard her brother make the above remark, fully endorses my statement."

body elongation
- (apparent adult size increase) "Lemp Mansion" - Listed as one of St. Louis's most haunted places by "Spirits of St. Louis" group. One of the tour participants was standing in the doorway in front of the light. Suddenly she started to grow taller, and then something moved out from the side. It was a shadow person. (Louisville Ghost Hunters Society, "Stories From Beyond")

body elongation
- (mostly adult size increases) The Neoplatonists observed it in certain obsessed men. Jamblichus (c363 CE): "The person of the subject has been known to dilate and tower to supernormal height."
- J. J. von Gorres, "La Mystique Divine, Naturelle et Diabolique" (1854): "One night while the blessed Ida of Louvain (13th Century) occupied a bed she assumed monstrous proportions until she was lying in all but a very narrow strip of the bed. So great was the strain that the skin of one of her legs burst and she had a scar there from then on. Suddenly, her body began to diminish until at last it was reduced to an extremely minute size. The phenomenon was repeated as she returned from church with her friend."

body elongation
- Dr. Strickler had Christine open her eyes and make eye contact. The impression of Christine's weight on the ottoman shrank slightly. It was as if her physical weight had been lessened. At the same time she grew taller sitting right in front of me. Her shoulders straightened and leveled, her lumbar curve became more pronounced, the back of her head drew upward, tilting her chin down slightly and straightening her cervical spine and upper back. The circles under her eyes disappeared; the lines at the creases of her nose and mouth softened, her face actually became thinner. She effortlessly stood up and walked. Step by step I watched as first her limp dissipated, her lumbar curve in the low back normalized, her upper back and neck curves normalized, and her posture became perfect.
- Christine and I came face to face in each other's way. I was stunned. "Oh my God! I can look you in the eye now!" Christine just laughed and said she had been measured at the doctor's office just this week. She measured 5 foot 6 and 1/2 inches tall [more than 1 inch taller]. I think she looks 10 years younger. The autistic children she works with in her classroom were looking at her strangely.

Christian Science
- (adult rejuvenation, adult age stasis)
From "The century illustrated monthly magazine" Vol34, 1887.
- Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy: The perpetuation of youth and the abolition of death.
"Man should grow younger as he grows older ... As we think so are we. By keeping the mind young we have a perfect guarantee for continued youthfulness of body. This new system will make us younger at seventy than at seventeen."
"Believing that she still lived in the same hour that parted her from her lover, she took no note of years, but daily stood before the window, watching for his coming. In this mental state she remained young. Having no appearance of age, she literally grew no older. Some American travelers saw her when she was seventy-four, and supposed her a young lady. Not a wrinkle or gray hair appeared, but youth sat gently on cheek."
Asked to judge her age, and being unacquainted with her history, each visitor conjectured that she must be under twenty.
...the delusion among the insane that they are young ... independent of time and of this world, is very common; and the most painfully paradoxical sights that I have ever witnessed have been men and women, toothless, denuded of hair, and with all the signs of age, declaring that they were young girls and engaged to be married to presidents and kings and even to divine beings.
But ...the number who show no signs of age until fifty, sixty, or even seventy years have passed, is by no means small in the aggregate...
"What do you suppose my age to be now? " said the gentleman. "Thirty," said the physician. "I am sixty-nine," was the reply, which proved to be the fact.
Mrs. Eddy continues: "Another lady at ninety had new teeth,- incisors, cuspids, bicuspids, and one molar." Such instances as these are not uncommon, but are generally a great surprise ... cases of second sight have occurred at intervals ... the progress of old age had been so great that the person had but a few months left in which to "see as well as ever they did..."
Some famous actors and actresses ... have maintained an astonishing youthfulness of appearance down to nearly three-score years and ten. John Wesley at seventy-five, not only presented the appearance of a man not yet past the prime of life, but ... had the undiminished energy, vivacity, melody and strength of voice which accompany youth. Nor at eighty-five had he exhibited much change ...resides a professional man nearly seventy years of age, whose teeth, complexion, color, hair, voice, and mind show no signs of his being over forty-five years of age.
... some who saw Mrs. Eddy at the age of seventy-four supposed her to be under twenty...

ghost AP/AR

I asked "can a young girl be my guide?" She tilted her head and laughed. Then she morphed into a grown woman briefly, then back into the young girl. I think my guide was showing me that no, she's not really a young girl, but that's just how we prefer her to appear... (Daughtie)

ghost AR/AP
- (posthumous age shifts) Spectral entities are sometimes reported to change apparent ages.
"My mom lost her life-force at age 89 in 1992. The next morning I awoke, and my mom was still there. She said, "Son, do you have any idea how beautiful death is?" It took me a minute, but I noticed that she looked much younger and seemed to have a strong, healthy glow around her. It seemed that each minute that went by on that first day after her death, she kept getting happier and happier. Also, she really seemed to be growing younger and younger. By the end of that first day, she looked about 45 and had the energy to match.
The morning of the second day, she looked and acted as though she were about 30 years old. She was so beautiful, and simply glowing with excitement about life - or should I say, death. She said to me first, "How do you like me at this age? Do you think I look good?"
Naturally, my heart opened, and I told her that she was gorgeous. She said that she decided that she didn't like being old and was making herself younger.
As I awoke on the fourth day, my mom had been sitting on the edge of my bed, and she appeared about twelve years old. I remember being startled. I knew it was my mom, but it seemed so strange to see her as a child. I said to her, "What are you doing? This is ridiculous!"
She said, "I agree with you, twelve is too young." And so over the next two or three hours she stopped getting younger and began to grow older. She quit when she reached about eighteen years old.
Mom said, "Look at me. This is perfect. I loooove this age." She was absolutely beautiful and sexy. I had never thought of my mom in this way before. It was as though her life was just beginning. And in a very real manner, it was. I knew that she was about to be born in another world." (Drunvalo)

Loathly Lady
- (old aged TFed disguised, rejuvenated to young adult woman)
Medieval literary theme, proto-feminist ur-text. Examples:
- Wife of Bath's Tale, The from The Canterbury Tales, Geoffrey Chaucer, 1395. A fairy tale hag wins the love of a handsome young knight, gains dominance over him in marriage, and through his love and submission, magically transforms herself into a young woman again.
The old woman and the knight converse in their marriage bed about the fact that he is unhappy because she is ugly and low-born. She says he can choose between her being ugly and faithful or beautiful and unfaithful. He gives the choice to her to become whatever would bring her the most honour and happiness; pleased with the "maistrie" of her husband that all women want, she becomes young, fair and faithful to live with him happily until the end of their days.
In other versions, she will be either ugly by day and beautiful by night, or the other way around. Variations are found in the romances "The Wedding of Sir Gawain and Dame Ragnelle", and "The Marriage of Sir Gawain".
- Story of King Arthur and His Knights, The Howard Pyle version, 1903. Sir Gawaine said, "This is a shame for me to behave in this way; for since I have married that lady she is my true wedded wife." Gawaine then repairs to his wife's chamber, apologizing for his neglect. This is all the concession Gawaine needs to make. The Loathly Lady immediately changes into a beautiful fairy princess. "Because thou has taken me for thy wife with thine own free will and great courtesy," Gawaine's lady says, "so is part of that enchantment which lay upon me removed from me," asking him to decide which part of the day he would have her beautiful.
- The theme became a staple of Arthurian and Holy Grail literature: "Perceval", by Chretien de Troyes, 1190, "Parzival", by Wolfram von Eschenbach, 1220, and the Welsh Romance "Peredur son of Efrawg".
- In The Adventures of the Sons of Eochaid Mugmedon, Niall of the Nine Hostages proves himself to be the rightful High King of Ireland by embracing her. Similar stories are told about the earlier kings Lugaid Laigde and Conn of the Hundred Battles.
- Hrolfs saga kraka Old Norse, c. 1400. Helgi was visited by an ugly being in his hunting house. As the thing got into his bed, it turned into an elf clad in silk, the most beautiful female he had ever seen. A couple of days later, he was visited by the woman carrying his daughter Skuld.

"It's a very beautiful step, but it's just a step," Vorilhon, 56, said, alluding to the alleged cloning of "Eve." "The next step that will be discovered soon is what we call accelerated growth process to accelerate cellular multiplication. So, instead of needing 9 months, then 18 years to make an adult, with a special technology you can have an adult clone copy of yourself in a few hours. This adult copy is just a blank tape, empty of memory and personality, just what you call hardware."

"Nope," she said, explaining that she had the 2 when she wanted them with no problems, and added, "You must be thinking of someone else."

Rupananda realized that compared to this girl she looked like a monkey. While she was looking, the girl began to grow older. She became a young woman, then a grown up woman, middle aged, old - and finally she became a very old woman. Rupananda realized that the change of the body is a continuing process, and she found out that this beautiful young girl changed into an old ugly woman. Then the woman on stage, no longer able to control her body, was lying there, dying and finally she died. Her body got swollen and worms were all over it. Rupananda thus realized beauty is impermanent, and attained Arahantship.

small child tales (Japanese stories and legends)
- (size increase)
The folklorist Kunio Yanagita studied folk tales and beliefs centering on the motif of "abnormal birth" and the "small child" who grows up suddenly, and accomplishes very difficult tasks that normal humans cannot achieve. In doing so, the child makes the grandparents, who have raised him with great care, very happy. These children are granted only to those who have strong faith and prayers.
All the main characters in these folktales were born extremely small:
- "Kaguyahime" (Bamboo Princess) of Taketori Monogatari (The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter) came from bamboo. She grew from a small baby into a woman of extraordinary beauty. Taketori tried to keep her away, but the news of her beauty had spread.
- Peach boy "Momotarou" came out of a peach.
- "Urikohime" (the Melon Princess) from a melon.
- "Issun-boshi" (Little One-Inch boy): princess uses a mallet to grow him to full-size and they eventually wed.
Yanagita tried to find traces of myths within folktales. In researching orally transmitted literature it is possible to establish the study of mythology.

Smith Freeman
- (male AP incident) 09/23/2014.
Foquelleh, Panta District, Bong County, Liberia. Marcus N. Malayea:
- Residents were said to be in unbelievable shock when a 2-month-old boy grew into a full grown man and escaped into the bush. According to 16 y.o. mother Lorpu Kollie, the child tied on her back in lappa spoke to her. She told the Daily Observer that the child repeated his call to untie him and put him down.
"This was my first time seeing a two-month-old baby talking so clearly like a five year old child."
As soon as she put the baby down, the boy instantaneously began to grow into a full grown man!
Apparently, the boy had warned his mother not to reveal a dream. But she revealed the dream to her mother, Gormah Kollie. The boy said he was going back home because her mother had the power to drive away witchcraft.
The baby who grew into a man took away her lappa and made his way into the bush. Smith Freeman did not have any scar or deformity indicting he belonged to the dark world.
The father of the baby described the disappearance of his son as incredible and mind-blowing, saying he did not experience any apprehension about him being beyond a normal human being. The grandfather said the unexplained vanishing is the handiwork of the dark world. The situation could stigmatize his daughter and drive away any man who may wish to take her as a future wife. Traditional leaders advised people who made farms in the direction to which the baby escaped to stay away for a couple of days and observe.

The white locks of the aged became black; the cheeks of the bearded man were restored to their youth and fineness; the young men grew softer and smaller, and, being reduced to the condition of children in mind as well as body, began to vanish away...as the old returned to youth, so the dead returned to life; the wheel of their existence having been reversed, they rose again from the earth.

Mme. Blavatsky
- (age stasis, old age to adult rejuvenation) said (in 1877) that she was 80. This seemingly wild statement she clung to, although every one who heard it pronounced it incredible. The writer, however, was only one of many who noticed great variations from time to time in her apparent age. It was not unusual for her to seem to be 60 years old. As frequently, however, she appeared no more than 35. It was impossible to say what made the difference, but that the difference actually occurred is beyond question. All discussed and studied this phenomenon without being able to understand it. Mme. Blavatsky herself declared that she made herself older or younger at will. She would not discuss the question of the potential immortality of the body, and neither affirmed nor denied that it could be attained, but she affirmed openly that she had gone far enough toward the attainment of it to make herself young whenever she chose. How it was done she never explained.

Toyol
- (ghost age stasis) Small child spirit invoked by a dukun or pawang (Indonesian shaman or Malay witch doctor) from a fetus.
A person owning a toyol uses it mainly to steal things or do mischief. If money or jewelry keeps disappearing mysteriously, a toyol might be responsible.
It appears like a small baby, frequently a newborn walking naked with a big head, small hands, clouded eyes and greenish skin. They are unlikely to be spotted casually.
The toyol is kept in a jar or an urn, and hidden away in a dark place until needed. Usually under the beds of the owners, there will be toys, marbles and sucklers.
A toyol is like a child, so it needs to be treated as such. To foster a closer relationship with this creature, offerings and rewards should be presented: a cup of milk every morning, toys, clothing, sweets, biscuits, candles, incense.
A toyol likes to be treated like a baby. Enjoys hugs like a baby and listening to lullabies. Some will even ride a child's tricycle.
Girl toyols are more vicious and difficult to control.

"Inside the cylinder, there is suddenly a brilliant blue light and a hum. As the frequency gets higher, I start getting bigger. When the sound stops and the light returns to white, I'm adult sized. I don't look like me, like my current adult version, I look different but there are some similarities. Rather than the kid clothes I arrived in, I now have on coveralls. Obviously, some serious matter transformation occurred. I felt really charged, really energized. When I came out, everyone else was coming out too and everyone is different; full size adults wearing the same coverall type of clothes. The one thing I quickly notice is that everyone looks ageless. We're in different bodies but not really. It's a rearrangement of our bodies; two 4 year olds, a 15 year old, an 18 year old and someone approximately 22 or 23. All TRANSFORMED into adults. Physically PERFECT adults I might add. Our transformed selves look similar to the extra-terrestrials sitting across from us. I know for myself that I felt and acted like a totally mature adult who knew the details of what was being discussed."
