Preface
Clairvoyance is a natural gift for some people and a talent that may be cultivated
by those who have the desire. In simple terms, clairvoyance is a French word
meaning "clear seeing." It is the art of seeing spirit entities, which may or may
not be visible through the eyes of others. Clairvoyance also includes the ability
to see, in our mind's eye, colors, symbols, numbers, words, faces, and scenes.
This ability has been around since the beginning of time but came into
prominence in the United States when the Fox sisters shot to fame after
receiving communication from a murdered peddler who was buried in the
basement of their home. The religion of Spiritualism grew from that
communication and has since caused millions to consider the possibility of life
after death and the benefits of communicating with those who are behind the
veil. Clairvoyance is one method in which we may receive communication from
our loved ones who are in the spirit world.
Many people experience spontaneous clairvoyance as children. The lucky few
who did not lose the ability upon reaching adulthood continue to experience
clairvoyance. By no means is this some bizarre occurrence that identifies such
people as weird. If you are an adult who experiences spontaneous clairvoyance,
please understand that you are not abnormal. Quite the contrary, you are gifted.
There is nothing to be afraid of concerning the development of clairvoyance.
Fear is ignorance. We fear what we cannot understand. Spiritualism &
Clairvoyance will clear away the confusion and help answer your questions. You
will find that developing clairvoyance or enhancing the ability you already
possess has many practical advantages. There are so many ways that
clairvoyance can be utilized in our daily lives to make our existences easier. Did
you know that we can call upon our clairvoyant abilities to determine the cause
of a problem in our car?
Whether you have a desire to enhance a natural clairvoyant ability or to
develop the gift of clairvoyance, exercises are offered to aid in that quest. There
is a workbook format at the end of most of the chapters where experiences can
be recorded after completion of the exercises. The last chapter is dedicated
entirely to offering exercises for practice.
The very first time one attempts an exercise, it is not uncommon to "see," but
hold on . . . that doesn't make you a professional clairvoyant! I only mention this
possibility to emphasize that clairvoyance is a natural ability. You further
develop this useful talent through practice and dedication.
Life is a journey, and by completing the exercises in this book, it is my hope
that you will create a better existence for yourself. We already have the power to
make changes in our lives. All we have to do is learn to focus that energy!
I extend warm blessings to you for a better, better, and better life!
