Supernatural is a term used to describe happenings that are outside the realm of what can be empirically discerned about the real world. This term can apply to paranormal phenomena, such as ghosts, psychic powers, magic, deities, etc. It falls under one of the two categories of non-overlapping magesteria (in that religion cannot interfere in the realm of science, but that science can't say anything about the supernatural, since strictly speaking it deals only with the natural world).
