Psychic
Ability
One night as I was doing some last-minute Christmas shopping,
I heard a group of excited teenagers discussing the blockbuster
film Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone and the series
of books by J. K. Rowling that have made her the second wealthiest
woman in England.
They were saying how cool it would be to attend the fictional
Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where Harry Potter
discovers that he has extraordinary abilities that he never
imagined existed but that occasionally exhibited themselves
in startling and detrimental ways until he was taught to control
these talents. I smiled to myself as I thought about the esoteric
school of clairvoyance that I attended, and the one I later
established in Sedona, where every day, every minute, was
a new adventure, filled with discovery, drama, mystery, and
challenges unheard of by most living beings. It still amazes
and saddens me that I lived twenty-seven years of my life
without the slightest inkling that I possessed clairvoyant
abilities, and that there were schools that could teach me
things that were not supposed to even be possible.
It's my dream that someday there will be no need for clairvoyant
training schools because clairvoyant reading will be understood,
encouraged, and taught by parents as well as teachers throughout
our educational institutions. Unfortunately, we are not there
yet. I hope this book will provide the initial wake-up call
for the slumbering adults in the United States who are still
oblivious to their own psychic ability and talents and therefore
unaware of their own true potential and that of their children.
If I could send everyone to a clairvoyant training school,
I would, but that is neither feasible nor really necessary.
Instead,
I am bringing clairvoyant school to you, in this book, which
I am dedicating to the thousands of clairvoyant students and
teachers out there who can attest to the validity and usefulness
of the information and guidance you are about to receive.
Psychic Ability - Common Questions
What is clairvoyance?
(
More on the definition of Clairvoyance...)
Clairvoyance means seeing clearly. It is the ability to access
and decipher visual information through extrasensory means
in the form of images or pictures. It does not involve the
eyes, but rather the infinite universe behind the eyes. When
you access your clairvoyance, you are using the same mechanics
and parts of your brain that are active when you dream or
use your imagination to visualize. If you have the ability
to visualize anything, even something as simple as a circle,
then you
have clairvoyant ability. When you perform a clairvoyant reading,
you relax your logical mind and let information in the form
of images appear to you. Often you will obtain information
that you could not possibly have obtained through logical
or physical means.
Why would I want to learn how to do clairvoyant readings?
First and foremost, the reason to do clairvoyant readings
is because they are fun! It is like sitting back and watching
a movie unfold before your eyes, or dreaming while you are
awake. You get to see all kinds of fascinating things, and
access information firsthand about other people and yourself
that you would otherwise never get to experience. Clairvoyant
reading is like embarking on a great adventure: you are often
surprised by the images that appear, and like a detective
you work your
way through clues in the form of pictures, sounds, colors,
and feelings until you solve the mystery of what these images
mean for the person you are reading.
Clairvoyance
enables you to know your fellow men and women on an extremely
intimate level. It enables you to tap into the deepest realms
of the subconscious mind of yourself or of any creature, including
your pets. It automatically turns you into the master of all
time travelers: with your spirit as captain and your clairvoyance
as your time machine, you can easily zoom from the past to
the future (which you are really doing all the time anyway,
just without awareness), enabling you to bring back immeasurable
treasures of insight to your present body. Also, when you
"read" energy, you can alter it, so having clairvoyant
ability not only makes it possible to pick up information
about people that they themselves aren't even privy to, it
also makes it
possible to help them heal, change, and grow.
A clairvoyant reading can be extremely beneficial for both
the person receiving the reading (the readee) and the person
performing the reading (the reader). Clairvoyant reading is
a form of meditation. More than any other mental exercise,
it forces you to concentrate, since the second that your attention
wanders, you will stop accessing information and this will
be immediately apparent to the reader and readee.
Clairvoyant reading brings you into a state of relaxation
and makes it impossible for you to continue to focus on your
own worries. When you clairvoyantly read other people, you
naturally heal yourself. By the end of a session, you are
often in a completely different frame of mind and emotional
state than you were at the beginning.
Disciplined use of your clairvoyance will send you sailing
through vast oceans of perceptions, paradigms, experiences,
challenges, and opportunities that were previously nonexistent,
or at best were only murky shadows in your logical mind. Through
doing clairvoyant readings you will process energy, break
patterns and programming, and heal wounds and heartbreaks
for yourself and the person you are reading faster and more
easily than you ever would doing anything else in your life!
Reading other people helps you gain insights into your own
situation because you will be drawn to read people who are
mirrors for yourself.
While reading yourself may be a bit trickier than reading
other people (since it is harder to concentrate and you have
more biases to work through), you'll find it very valuable
when you need clarification about a relationship in your life
or are wondering about an upcoming event, like the result
of a job interview. Through developing your clairvoyance,
you will access your power in ways you never imagined.
I use the term power in the sense of personal power, power
over oneself. While clairvoyance can give you power over other
people as well, as in some forms of black magic or voodoo,
that is not a path I chose to pursue and one that will not
be addressed in this book. Control over others is always fleeting
and self-defeating because what you are usually trying to
get from someone else is what is missing in yourself, or is
based on uncomfortable emotions within your own body from
which you are trying to escape. It is only when you find your
own inner power and peace that you can be truly satisfied.
If people are not doing what you want them to do or are not
giving you what you desire, go inward and ask yourself how
you can change your own thoughts and actions in order to obtain
the joy you seek. Otherwise, you are going to waste a lot
of your own vital energy, hurt other people, probably incur
some nasty karma, and in the end be no further from where
you began. (Think about a time in your life when you tried
to change someone's mind about something they felt strongly
about, or when you manipulated them into doing something against
their will. Is that person still in your life? Were the consequences
lasting and fulfilling? Probably not!)
Along with increasing your personal power and confidence,
developing your psychic ability will help you access a higher
form of learning: you will learn through direct experience
rather than through regurgitation of someone else's information.
You will be better able to discern fact from fiction, truth
from lies. Clairvoyance can also be utilized to help access
creative energies and ideas that can greatly enhance creative
projects and artistic endeavors.
What is the difference between clairvoyant reading
and spiritual counseling?
A clairvoyant reading is one of the most effective and easiest
forms of therapy/counseling because the clairvoyant can immediately
identify the client's core issues; uncover unconscious motivations,
desires, dreams, and fears; and actually witness and thus
validate the client's past and present external and internal
experiences. An experienced clairvoyant can identify and bypass
a client's defense mechanisms within a single session. He
or she can see through the most convincing persona and reveal
the true face behind the most deceptive mask. Because information
is accessed through extrasensory means, the usual pitfalls
of traditional psychotherapy can be minimized or even avoided
during a clairvoyant reading, provided the clairvoyant understands
these may be present and is open to receiving and committed
to sharing whatever information emerges.
Some of these pitfalls include faulty or deceptive self-reporting
by clients; a client's inability to communicate (due to age,
interpersonal skills, or disability); erroneous identification
of the problem or issue by the client and therapist; and the
time-consuming and difficult task of establishing trust. A
doctor deals with the physical body. A psychotherapist deals
with the psychological, cognitive, and emotional functioning
of the individual. A social worker may deal with the psychological
as well as social, family, political, economic, and community
factors.
A clairvoyant deals with all of these plus one additional
and essential element: the spirit. A clairvoyant can see the
spirits of humans, both living and deceased. Clairvoyants
can see the spirits of animals, plants, and alien life forms.
A clairvoyant can even see ascended beings such as Jesus and
Buddha and, of course, the greatest spirit of them all, God.
It is not only unfortunate but downright tragic that so many
people (spirits) live their whole lives having no knowledge
that they are something other than a physical body and mind.
These people can never fully know their true self or who they
really are because they are not in touch with their true essence.
People who have no concept of their own spirit often suffer
from depression and feelings of hopelessness and frustration,
and their lives as well as the process of their death are
riddled with pain and fear.
In order for a person to thrive, that person's spirit must
be nurtured through recognition and validation. Clairvoyance
is actually an ability of the spirit. A clairvoyant accesses
information by connecting with a readee's spirit or the Universal
Spirit and then brings this information into the physical
and mental realms. For many people, the first time they feel
as if they have truly been "seen," recognized, understood,
and respected for who they really are is during a clairvoyant
reading. To give this gift to a fellow human being is one
of the most rewarding aspects of performing a reading.
A clairvoyant reading is a powerful catalyst for self-awareness
and growth not just because it has a psychological effect
on a person but because it actually has an effect on one's
energetic and psychical body.
It can elicit an instantaneous change in perception for both
the client and the clairvoyant. When a clairvoyant looks at
energy, that energy responds with movement. So emotions and
pain, which are energy, may instantaneously be released. When
a clairvoyant focuses on those energies and wills them to
behave in a certain way, a "clairvoyant healing"
is being performed.
Why would anyone want to receive a clairvoyant reading?
People have a lot of misconceptions about what clairvoyant/psychic
readings are all about.
While they can be used to access information about the future,
a good clairvoyant reading will also focus on you in present
time and see what is working for you or what changes need
to be made in order for you to create the type of future you
would like to have. Readings can help clarify your feelings
and experiences and dispel confusion. While they can tell
you things you didn't know, more importantly they will often
uncover thoughts and feelings that you were afraid to admit
to yourself. Sometimes when a relationship is headed in the
wrong direction, such as in a violent or abusive marriage,
we need an objective witness who can say, "This is what's
going on and it's not conducive to your well-being."
When a psychic you have never met tells you the details of
your life and how remaining in your current situation is detrimental
to your self-respect and physical health, you really can't
remain in a state of denial. Hearing the truth from someone
who does not know you or your situation makes a much greater
impact than hearing the same thing from your family and friends
who may be biased and too emotionally involved in your situation.
Readings can be performed on couples and families as well
as individuals. They can serve as an extremely powerful form
of marriage or relationship counseling since the reader does
not need to rely on self-reports of who is to blame. The reader
can look at agreements and past lives between the couple and
see what is working for them as well as what's not. He or
she can communicate thoughts and feelings that one partner
may have been unable to adequately and neutrally voice. A
clairvoyant reader/counselor can also look to see where the
masculine and feminine dynamics of each partner are in conflict
or harmony.
Why would I want to do clairvoyant healings?
Whether you are aware of it or not, you already are healing
people around you. Whenever you sympathize with someone, whenever
you wish you could help or change or transform someone's pain
and suffering, you are healing that person. Most people have
never thought of themselves as a healer or sought this out
as a profession, but we all (with the exception of sociopaths)
have experienced a desire to help. When we have that desire,
when we feel someone else's pain as our own, when we attempt
to give them advice, when we pray for them or try to change
them, when we become frustrated with them for being stuck
in their lives, we are calling forth our healing energy.
This has both positive and detrimental effects on that person
and on ourselves, as we will discuss in the next few chapters.
When you understand the dynamics and effects of your own healing
energy and abilities, you will be better equipped to make
the conscious choice of what you would like to do with your
energy (which dictates your mental and physical health).
You can decide whether or not you want to share someone else's
suffering and whether or not you want to take on or interfere
with their karma and spiritual path. Instead of feeling helpless
or drained and transmitting negative energy (in the form of
worry or judgment), you can actually learn to consciously
employ simple techniques that will likely have a useful effect
on a person you care about.
The purpose of learning how to heal is not just to help others,
but to avoid healing in ways that are inadvertently dangerous
to yourself and to those around you.
If I have psychic ability, why don't I know it?
I still marvel at the fact that I could have lived most of
my life without knowing I had any psychic ability, or even
knowing what clairvoyance is. Most people don't believe me
when I tell them that they have the same ability that I and
many of the best psychics out there have, because they mistakenly
believe that if they did have that ability, they would surely
know it. Well, how do you know if you have any ability? The
only way is by attempting it. If you never attempted to sing,
you would not know that you had a beautiful voice. If you
never attempted to play the piano, you would not know that
you have the ability, with training and practice, to play
the piano. The same is true with clairvoyance. With knowledge
of some simple techniques and a moderate dose of patience,
practice, and discipline, anyone can access their clairvoyance.
Thanks to religious influences dating back to the time of
the Inquisition, mainstream society has done its best to squelch
any sign of psychic abilities and gifts in children (and its
adult members) through techniques ranging from ridiculing
and ignoring signs that a child is communicating through extrasensory
means, to punishing and forbidding the child to ever speak
of such matters. Between being burned at the stake in past
lives and being laughed at by the people we love and depend
on in this lifetime, it is no wonder that we have turned off
our natural abilities to the point that we forget we even
have them!
Even in today's modern world, many of the psychics I know
feel they must remain "in the closet." Much like
gay and lesbian people, many talented psychic readers and
healers hide their activities, abilities, and true selves
from their families, coworkers, and neighbors out of fear
of being ridiculed, misunderstood, labeled, ostracized, and
discriminated against. These closet psychics are some of the
most dedicated, honest, loving, and concerned citizens on
this planet, and it is a travesty that they feel they have
to hide their good deeds in order to maintain their jobs or
relationships with people who reject and fear their own spiritual
abilities. I know many of these psychics. I was one of them.
Of course, there are some psychics and spiritual leaders out
there who would rather maintain the illusion that they somehow
have been given special gifts that set them above the average
person. This is done by some to maintain power, prestige,
and wealth, and by others out of ignorance. Also, many "followers"
of psychic gurus prefer to believe that their designated human
"God" is more powerful than they are and will do
whatever they can to maintain this illusion in order to avoid
taking responsibility for their own lives. Ironically (since
they will tell you they are following a guru in order to reach
enlightenment), this act of dependence can block them from
reaching their fullest potential.
People often turn to gurus because to go it alone is sometimes
a dif- ficult, lonely, and uncertain path. Many people want
to believe that a guru or specific religion has all the answers
because the truth that no one really knows for sure what the
heck is going on out there can be really scary. Gurus and
spiritual teachers can be very helpful and sometimes essential
to personal growth, provided the relationship between student
and teacher is balanced and healthy.
Many spiritual groups throughout the ages have sought to control
information similar to that shared in this book because they
feared that people would not use it ethically or responsibly.
It's my belief that people are already doing so much harm
by using their abilities without awareness that far more people
will benefit from understanding the information presented
in this book than will misuse it. There are so many books
in existence that directly address the subject of black magic,
available to those with ill intentions, that there is no reason
for anyone to bother trying to extract information for evil
purposes from a text such as this one that is intended only
to enhance people's lives.
The greatest enemy of awareness is fear. Many people have
so much fear about what is behind the door to their own personal
power and freedom that they choose to remain in the dark.
The path of clair- voyance is a path of personal transformation,
and transformation is not always easy, as you surely know.
When you begin to open up to your clairvoyance, it is like
bringing a bright lantern into an ancient cave. You may or
may not like what you see. There may be breathtaking crystal
formations or perfectly preserved hieroglyphics, or decaying
mummies guarded by drooling, man-eating tigers! While you
can dim the light or even turn it off, you can never totally
forget what you saw during the period of illumination, or
how it felt to see so clearly. This is one of the major reasons
people shy away from exploring their psychic ability.
Sometimes during my workshops I'll ask the audience, "If
there were a stranger hiding in your house, would you want
to know about it or would you rather he just stay hidden away
so you wouldn't have to deal with him and feel the fear and
anxiety that might arise from the awareness that he is there?"
Most people respond that of course they would want to know
about this stranger so that they could protect themselves
and get rid of him. I wonder how many people feel the same
way about all the "strangers" in the form of spirits
or foreign energies that are lurking in their auras and chakras,
playing havoc with
their relationships and communication with others as well
as their inner selves?
I choose to know what is really going on, no matter how ugly
"it" is, so that I can choose whether or not I wish
to keep "it" in my life. In this book you will learn
how to turn on the light and then deal with or conquer anything
you don't wish to have in your personal space. By using the
techniques presented here, your fear will diminish because
you will know that you really can handle just about anything
lurking in the dark.
The path of clairvoyance is one that must be undertaken by
choice and free will. Undoubtedly many readers are still questioning
whether they have psychic abilities, or if they have them
to the extent that I suggest.
The only way I can convince you of this truth is to share
the techniques that have not only been proven effective by
myself, but by thousands of others. You must do the rest.
