Disclaimer

Psychic abilities take different forms, and an understanding of those psychic abilities takes even more forms. This book presents clairvoyance as I see it my perspective and tips will fit some of you, but not all of you. Some of you might learn a lot from this book, while others will find it useless. That's because there are many paths that lead to the development of psychic abilities. Those who can already use clairvoyance might be surprised with the content of this book because clairvoyance takes many forms, too. Please, keep these things in mind as you progress with reading.

A Word of Warning Before We Begin

People these days are very interested in paranormal subjects, especially in their practical aspects psychic abilities are just one example. New Age books and workshops promote esoteric and spiritual techniques of various origins. Books teach communication with spirits and how to channel, as well as energy work of different sorts and such, but do not be blinded by the words of love that many New Age authors promote: remember, where there is Yang there is Yin, as well. Light cannot exist without darkness, and esoteric/spiritual techniques are not 100% safe. As a spiritual worker, you enter a world of both positive and negative entities, energies, and events. Be sure that you want this, and be sure to know how to defend yourself against negative entities. Too many New Age practitioners have fallen into darkness simply because they thought "love speech" would protect them. But you need more than just love speech to survive. No author can take responsibility for depression, possession, obsession, paranoia, or mental and physical problems that may occur on your spiritual path neither do I. You are a sole creator of your life, but remember, please spiritual development is fascinating and useful, just keep the safety rules in mind.

This book, as it is, is not meant for total beginners. For those, I've written another book, Psychic Development Simplified . It covers the very basics of psychic development from meditation and subconscious mind work to the basics of energy work. If you're a total beginner, please refer to Psychic Development Simplified . There are many paths that lead to the development of psychic abilities. There are many schools of thoughts, many systems, many types of workshops and teachers. Choose the one that suits you the most.

The Art of Seeing is meant for people who already practice the basics: they meditate, they work with energies, they re-program their mind and deal with negative patterns such as fears, worries, concerns, bad experiences, and such. Seeing things through clairvoyance, seeing ghosts and spirits and energies like auras, is a complex subject, and, to be honest, might be very difficult to learn at first. But once you get the basics, all you have to do is to practice, and things will develop on their own.

It doesn't mean that you can just sit down and wait. Clairvoyance cannot be developed just by practicing clairvoyant exercises you must keep your general psychic development going; you must keep developing yourself on a spiritual level. Only then will your clairvoyance develop further. It's because energy goes up! If you have ever wondered why it is important to work with all the lower chakras and practice general psychic development before learning clairvoyance, here's the answer. The Third-Eye chakra, which is responsible for clairvoyant perception, requires fuel in order to perceive through clairvoyance. And fuel goes from the lower Tan T'ien an energy center through the first five chakras. So you need to develop your psychic abilities and spirituality steadily and gently for a few months, at least, before you jump into practicing clairvoyance. And you need to maintain proper spiritual levels of your personality if you want the ability to function without continual problems.

You might be surprised by seeing that this manual is only 100 pages long, give or take. How can one explain such a complex psychic ability like clairvoyance in such a small book? Well, who told you that clairvoyance is complex or difficult, anyway? The truth is that clairvoyance is a very, very simple ability to learn and work with, at least in theory. It doesn't require too much explaining. On the contrary, I can explain clairvoyance within a few pages, and then provide you with exercises and ways of practicing your new psychic ability because it's all about practice. The difficulty of the learning process and practice that I've mentioned earlier is caused by forgetting about the basics, or by not being ready to learn clairvoyance in the first place. Keep this in mind, please.

Once you know what to look for, and you know a few basic exercises and techniques for using clairvoyance, everything else is your own practice, mixed with reading books about astral and spiritual planes to gain more theoretical knowledge and keeping your personal journal/dictionary of clairvoyant perception. That's it! And that's why this book is short there's no need for me to talk too much just in order to get a few more pages, because it wouldn't be honest. Clairvoyance is simple once you know the basics of psychic growth most people can learn it. The trickiest part will be to understand what "letting go" means and what "inner sight" is but you will learn this, don't worry.

Finally, remember that this book, even if it contains a lot of theory, has been written from a practical perspective. I'm clairvoyant. I can "see," so I do know what I'm talking about. Now, that's all for the moment. Enjoy the book!

The Book of Theory

You can't learn practical aspects of clairvoyance if you don't learn the theory, first. That is why the first part of this book will explain the theory, but it will also provide you with practical knowledge about affirmations, visualization, and relaxation techniques. Later on, in the second part of this book, you will learn practical exercises that will help you develop clairvoyance.

What Is Clairvoyance?

Clairvoyance is a psychic ability that allows you to see things that are either etherical, i.e., made up from psychic energies, or information received as psychic messages through visual means, as images. When you see things that are real but without physical form, then you are experiencing clairvoyance, an ability to see the unseen. As R. E. Guiley stated in her encyclopedia, clairvoyance is a "paranormal vision of objects, events, places, and people that are not visible through normal sight" (Guiley, p. 95). This skill is used by psychics to perceive etherical beings, such as spirits, ghosts, or angels, or to see energies and to perceive auras, chakras, or cords of psychic energy. Finally, clairvoyance is used by people who perform psychic readings. In that last case, the psychic does not see things that are actually out there, but he perceives information, messages, through "visions." This book is meant to teach you how to see energies, entities, and how to receive psychic messages, because, in the end, all of this is just information. Energy is information, and information is energy.

"Clairvoyance" as a term was created in the late eighteenth century by the followers of Dr. Franz Anton Mesmer, but, of course, the ability to perceive things on different layers of reality is as old as humanity itself or even older.
