Clairvoyant Readers Special
Clairvoyant Readers are known as having the 6th sense or having a 3rd eye in the psychic world.
The term originates from the French 17th Century – Clair meaning clear and Voyance meaning vision.
Clairvoyant readers are known to have a unique supernatural ability in which they can see beyond a person’s five senses and into the future. A human person has continuous images in their minds, bringing messages from other frequency and realms. These particular readers have the ability to access information about a person, object, location or a physical event through means other than the known human senses. It is only when our everyday senses are not used that it can be deemed that the psychic is using a sense others do not possess. This is called extra-sensory perception. (more…)
Déjà Vu – Seen it all Before
We’ve all witnessed that situation where you’ve had that uncanny feeling of having experienced something before and being able to recall the exact event.
Déjà vu comes from the French term for ‘already seen´ and was given its name by the French psychic researcher Émile Boirac in his book ‘L’Aevnir des sciences psychiques’ (The Future of Psychic Sciences).
Sigmund Freud described the Déjà vu experience as the ‘previous experience most frequently attributed to a dream, although in some cases there is a firm sense that the experience has genuinely happened in the past’. Or in other words, the experience is accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity.
Charles Dickens wrote in the famous David Copperfield ‘in a remote time of our having been surrounded, dim ages ago, by the same faces, objects and circumstances of our knowledge perfectly what will be said next, as if we suddenly remember it’! (more…)
Year of the Rabbit – Chinese New Year
2011 is the year of the rabbit, which occupies the 4th position in the Chinese zodiac. These are the rabbit years to date: 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011.

Parapsychology Explored
Parapsychology is the study of psychic abilities, near-death experiences, and life after death. It uses scientific method experimenting with random number generators which are used to test for evidence of precognition and psychokinesis on humans and animals.
One of the former most studiers of Parapsychology was J.B Rhine who famously coined the term ESP (extrasensory perception). He studied at The Society for Psychical Research which was founded in London in 1882. He was pivotal in the study of Parapsychology and began to change the way studies were carried out. Rather than carrying out qualitative evidence for paranormal phenomena Rhine pursued a quantitative, statistical approach using cards and dice. This way soon became standard and interested researchers across the world adopted this approach. (more…)
The Unicorn
The Unicorn is the universal symbol for mystics of enlightenment and spiritual transformation. Whilst its depiction often differs the mythology of it being a magnificent and elusive creature does not.
The oldest form of the Unicorn is probably the Chinese Ki-Lin in about 3000BC. Chinese symbolism describes it as one of the four spiritually endowed or auspicious creatures of the Ssu Ling; it is the essence of all five elements whilst embodying both the male /female yin and yang.
In the west the Unicorn is strongly associated with the moon; it is nearly always coloured white or silver. The mythical creature represents purity, gentleness and strength of mind – the horn a symbol of enduring individuality and power.
The Unicorn is also closely associated with royalty and is prominent in heraldry, often opposite a lion representing both lunar and solar energies.

Inspire Good Karma – Let Them Fly…
From time to time everyone needs their own space, whether it be your family, friends, partner or even children – do not be afraid to let them be by themselves for a while. The need to tie or secure someone to ourselves normally comes from our own insecurities or fear that they will reject us; but true love in all its forms is not possessive. Allow your relationships to grow with true trust, love and respect and their paths will then never stray far from your own.
Which Sense Do You Favour?
People generally fall into one of three categories, those that prefer auditory, visual or kinaesthetic communication.
Auditory people respond to what they hear, they may run conversations in their head when making decisions.
Visual people think in a series of pictures, they may say things like – “I see what you mean” or “I get the picture”
Kinaesthetic people may need to touch something to aid their understanding. (more…)
Crystals
In a recent article Victoria & David Beckham explained how they find Los Angeles to be quite a spiritual and very positive place to live. They also went onto say that they had become devotees of healing crystals, with both of them keeping crystals in their separate bathrooms in their Californian home. Whilst David did not say what his crystal preferences were; Victoria did “We both like crystals, as in crystal energy. I have lots of pink quartz and black tourmaline in my bathroom”. They hope that the crystals will improve their health and boost their energy levels.
