Understanding How To Be A Clairvoyant
The paranormal term clairvoyance originated in the French language. And can be broken down as, in French, 'clair' meaning clear, 'voyance' meaning vision and 'voyant ' being a visionary. Therefore being a clairvoyant is one who has clear vision. This is, however, a literal translation and not really accurate or very helpful.
Clairvoyant has been used to describe people in terms of different phenomena over the years. It has now come to be used as a generally term describing anyone who exhibits psychic abilities. This is an overly broad definition, but generally speaking when this word is used it refers to someone who is able to sense and know things without perceiving them with the five senses of the physical body. You could refer to clairvoyance as ESP.
For the most part, clairvoyants only perceive extrasensory knowledge about current events. However, there have been clairvoyants who have received information about the past or the future. These cases fall more into the category of precognition or post-cognition, however.
The means by which a clairvoyant learns this information varies, but as a general rule can be broken down into one of six forms or types. It is clairvoyance that is most associated with this first type or form, the remote viewing phenomenon. The clairvoyant, in remote viewing, sees an object, location, event or person hidden from them. Sometimes this is in the form of visual hallucination, other times the clairvoyant viewing something using their minds eye.
The second type is call clairaudience. In this particular for a clairvoyant receives their information by remote event by sound. The individual may hear noises or voices that other people or recording equipment cannot. The clairvoyant may sometimes hear the voices of the dead and in this case that phenomenon may cross the line and be the form of a medium.
Clairsentience is analogous to our sense of touch. Also called psychometry, clairsentience refers to information which comes as tactile extrasensory input. The clairvoyant may feel vibrations from people, places, events and things or even be able to feel objects which cannot be perceived by anyone else present.
Clairalience is the fourth type or form. This form, clairalience, involves the sense of smell of the clairvoyant. The knowledge, for example, of the individual (clairvoyant) is gained through the smell of flowers and grass of a meadow, the ordor of blood and gunpowder. An it is unlikely anyone else near them can detect these smells and there is no source for these various scents.
Clairgustance is analogous to our sense of taste. Clairvoyants may sometimes taste flavors at a distance or those which come from no apparent source.
Claircognizance is the sixth and the last form of clairvoyance and the most difficult to explain or to define. In this form of clairvoyance the individual has knowledge of a object, location, person or event that is out of their viewing range. They cannot explain where they have gained this knowledge. They just know it. Claircognizance, to some extent, is a catch-all description of clairvoyance.
Clairvoyance is known around the world and is something which figures into every one of the world’s cultures. It is also something which makes up a part of many major religions.
Clairvoyance is part of the religious traditions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam as well. In the Abrahamic religions clairvoyance is believed to be a miraculous experience granted to the clairvoyant by divine intervention. In Catholic tradition, St. Clare is believed to have had a vision of the death of St. Francis of Assisi, even though she was many miles removed from the event. In honor of this vision, the Catholic Church named St. Clare the patron saint of television. It’s a fitting assignment; after all, the word television literally means to see at a distance.
Clairvoyance also makes appearances in Christian and Islamic literature, with the visions being considered to be divinely inspired miracles. St. Clare described a vision of St. Francis’ death, though she was many miles distant. The Catholic Church later named St. Clare as the patron saint of TV (which happens to literally mean 'seeing at a distance'). As with other psychic phenomena, there are many skeptics about clairvoyance. Skepticism is natural; it’s hard to believe in something without seeing it in action. After all, even magnetism was once thought to be non-existent.
None of these skeptics have yet to prove that clairvoyance does not exist. At the same time, the evidence which supports its existence continues to pile up and the public as a whole is starting to adopt a more accepting attitude towards the possibility of clairvoyance.
No matter what the skeptics say or do not believe, no one has been able disprove clairvoyance. The increasing evidence of the existence of many genuine clairvoyants worldwide has opened the minds of many. Scientists, parapsychologists and even the general public are ready to accept clairvoyance as real.
