Is it really possible for anyone to learn clairvoyance? To a certain extent, yes. To understand what we mean by this, we need to clarify what we mean by clairvoyance, and what we mean by being able to ‘learn’ it.
Some of the confusion here derives from the fact that the term clairvoyance has several different meanings. Some of the traditional definitions center on remote viewing powers or precognition skills. On a very basic level, this term refers to the ability to discover information about a person, place, or thing without using any of the five senses but from tapping into a latent sixth sense.
Now, some people do already have extraordinarily developed clairvoyant abilities, in that they can taste, feel, hear, see, or smell something from far away, and they may also know things about the past or the future that they couldn’t possibly know by any of the conventional means. No one really knows how clairvoyance works, and science, too, can’t explain or document these types of abilities. There are literally dozens of metaphysical explanations of the psychic abilities, but no particular one explanation has emerged as dominant, and some explanations actually contradict each other. A common thread among all of them, though, is that those who have extraordinary psychic abilities are simply born with them.
Can anyone learn to remote viewing or see the future? No. Can anyone learn to develop and hone their sixth sense? Yes.
In other words, everyone has a certain amount of ability when it comes to clairvoyance or a sixth sense. You probably know what I’m talking about. You’ve likely gotten a ‘feeling’ or ‘hunch’ that you can’t explain through logic. For example, you might say, ‘I don’t know why, but I just feel bad about this,’ or, ‘I don’t know why, but I can trust him.’ What’s unfortunate about this is that many people ignore this sixth sense, and instead use ‘logic’ or emotion to guide what they do.
Science, to a certain degree, even acknowledges the existence and validity of hunches and instincts. Scientists claim, however, that there is nothing supernatural, paranormal, or psychic about this ability. Psychologists, for example, argue that this phenomenon is merely your subconscious mind picking up on little details, hints, and signals that your conscious mind is too busy to notice. Your subconscious mind then translates this information into emotions to help guide you?the proverbial ‘feeling’ mentioned earlier. Therefore, in order to develop your sixth sense, you have to learn to use and trust your subconscious mind.
Whether your sixth sense is based in paranormal psychic ability or brain neurochemistry is not what is important. The main issue here is clairvoyance exists and all people possess a certain degree of it. And it is possible for them to hone their clairvoyance skill. The following are the three ways to do this:
1. Improve Your Perception
Most people go through life with a sort of tunnel vision, where they’re so focused on what they’re doing in front of them that they become oblivious to everything that’s going on around them. Even so, though, these small details are hidden in plain sight, and our subconscious minds pick up on them. We get our instinct and hunches from this information, and if you can learn how to increase your perception, and become more aware of what’s around you and the details therein, you’ll be giving your subconscious mind more of what it needs to develop your sixth sense.
Yes, all of this involves a great deal of practice. Thankfully, there are a number of things you can do to improve your abilities of perception. Slowing down and sinking in your environment is one such thing. Staying relaxed and calm is another. Be more leisurely in your daily activities is another. Try to avoid allowing things to occupy your senses and thoughts and this will increase awareness. The end result of this could prove to be quite positive.
Finally, occasionally do a ‘mini-meditation’. This consists of closing your eyes, taking a deep breath, and forcing yourself to relax. When you open your eyes again, you’ll be more aware of your surroundings. This only takes a few seconds, but you’ll be surprised by the difference it makes.
2. Meditate
Try to meditate at least 30 minutes a day. The idea behind meditation is to occupy and clear your conscious mind, and let your subconscious mind rise to the surface to do its work and communicate with your conscious mind People who meditate report feeling relaxed and refreshed when they are done.
Of course, meditation is easier said that done. When you sit down and try to think about nothing, suddenly all you can think about is whether or not your thinking about nothing, wondering if your doing this all wrong?and then you’re stuck in an endless circle of thought. The trick to overcoming this problem is to occupy your conscious mind with something to distract it. For this, you need two things: a focus, and a mantra.
Meditation can be difficult because your senses act as a means of distraction. Every little sound you hear and anything that you feel can prove quite distracting. So, it is best to avoid trying to shut down your senses and, instead, try to keep them busy with something you are focusing on. The flame of a candle can work well in this regard. As the flame flickers and shifts, you can watch it and keep your mind occupied.
Secondly, it is our conscious mind and our thoughts that never shut down which leads us to always being distracted by thoughts. So, instead of trying to silence it, it is better to distract it or occupy it with a mantra. A mantra is a phrase, prayer, or poem and, possibly, song lyrics intended to occupy the mind. As long as it is something you know and can recite, you can use it as a mantra. Many prayer sessions such as the rosary reciting can occupy the mind in such a manner.
3. Trust Your Instincts
Without a doubt, it is the ability to trust your instincts that is the most important element. That is why it is important to never doubt yourself or your abilities. Don?t tell yourself there is no logical reason to what you do. Pay attention to your subconscious mind as it may pick up on something you had not noticed before.
At first, this may be difficult. Over time, however, the more you listen to and trust your instincts, the more confidence you will gain in them. Your clairvoyant sixth sense will grow stronger, and it will be easier for you to trust it.
