Psychic Development Exercises - Becoming Clairvoyant

This psychic development exercise continues on directly from the psychic aura viewing exercise I wrote earlier. If used properly it allows you to open your consciousness to a flood of new awareness of psychic possibilities thus opening the gateways to higher vibrations of energy.

The objective of this exercise is not to become bogged down in the psychic energy of the astral but to elevate your consciousness slowly to the upper astral and beyond. This is done primarily by not becoming involved in what you see, but observing the fact that you do in fact see. Do not try and interpret what you see allow the information to flood the subconscious where the truth will arise at some time.

This exercise is sometimes called scrying, though i do not like the term as it conjures up connotations of all manner of black arts from the past. It is a method of seeing reality, and allowing both your conscious and subconscious mind to accept and develop its realisations. Subsequently you as a being will take these realisations forward into your life increasing your awareness of all that is around you and in deed part of you.

Psychic Clairvoyant Seeing Exercise
The first principle of this exercise is the understanding that you will not see what you are not ready or developed enough to see (hence the importance of the spiritual development exercises I published). If you can not yet fully see the aura, this exercise will enhance this practice but you will not move forward until that level of seeing has been achieved.

Find a place where you can relax in a darkened environment (not pitch black, but certainly not too bright either)

place a mirror at eye level in order to see at least your entire head.

Enclose yourself in an effective form of protection (if you do not have one of your own you will find some posted in this blog)

Now slowly relax and breathe deep into the pit of your belly.

let your eyes now settle into an awareness of the image on front of you. do not focus too hard just gently become aware of the area between your brows (your third eye)

Try not to blink, even if your eyes start to water (in many paths the tears of the eyes are considered healing)

Slowly become aware (but do not interpret what you see) of the aura, the colours and shapes.

Relax a little further but remain unblinking.

You may start to lose focus on the face, do not worry if things start to go a little fuzzy this is normal.

It may take some practice to remain focussed and unblinking for this length of time.

Slowly from the blurred and fuzzy image reflecting to your front, you will start to discern a new image, a face which may be familiar to you yet your not aware of whose it is.

If you are able to concentrate further, you will observe the faces slowly cycle from identity to identity,

do not become involved in what you observe just be aware that you are seeing,

Do not attempt to understand it with your conscious mind, allow your subconscious to interpret.

These images tend to fall into one of three categories, there are those of your other or past lives, their are those of your guides, and those of entities wishing to communicate. Your higher self knows and can discern which is which therefore allow it to deliver the answers rather than you mentally trying to find the answers.

Alternative Exercise
Rather than using a mirror, you may prefer to do this exercise with a partner, which is just as effective. You must sit within arms reach of your partner whereby you may both simultaneously view the other. Both of you must remain perfectly still during this exercise. Working with a partner brings other possibilities to light, such as you may view your partners other lives, or guides, or indeed see your own images projected onto your partner.

Benefits of This Technique
Using this method of accessing your true being is an extremely powerful method of awakening and nurturing your spiritual self it brings with it the realisations that you are more than you previously perceived and will slowly over time permanently open doorways to higher levels of awareness and consciousness, so much so that when these channels and doorways are strengthened and reinforced you can at will show another person, regardless of their development images of your other lives, guides or indeed spirits which are attempting to communicate.

Remember the object of these psychic development exercises is not to turn you into a psychic medium, but to allow you to further your experiential spiritual development, and anchor new levels of consciousness, hence the importance of remaining detached and impartial to that which you see and perceive.

Developing the skill of Psychometry is covered in the next exercise.

Psychic Development Exercises - The 3rd Eye Chakra - Opening and Awareness

The Third Eye Chakra is commonly associated with psychic abilities and in particular psychic clairvoyance, however it must be noted that this is only one part of our energetic anatomy which enables the whole spectrum of psychic gifts. (other parts of the psychic anatomy will be discussed later). The third eye tends to open and activate relatively quickly, especially if you are a frequent meditation practitioner (even though you may be working consciously on one of the lower chakras).

In general the first awareness of this psychic centre may be pressure or sensations in the brow area. This is one of the outermost vortex's of the third eye slowly activating to a new level of awareness. This vibration may later be accompanied by colours in spherical or cloud form. Which will in turn be followed by perception of depth and the colour violet or purple.

The awareness of these phases of development is important as it gives you an indication of progress and development. Also understanding what these phenomenon represent will allow you to know when you are capable of developing and utilising certain psychic abilities.

Brief Understanding of Sensations

There are multiple aspects to these sensations especially from a healing and developmental perspective. In this series we are interested in the developmental aspects of these sensations and what they mean to our over all progress.

Pressure in the brow- which could also be tingling, burning, or any other abnormal sensation indicates that your psychic anatomy has gained access and is activating to the level of the etheric realm of consciousness.

Colours in Vision- with eyes closed you observe any colour in any shape or form, most normally clouds or spheres. This indicates that you have developed to the point of Astral Consciousness

Violet or Purple Light - This is a very good sign and indicates that you are connecting with the upper astral realms, and therefore making progress towards liberation or higher development.

Violet is by no means the highest stage in development, but is certainly the stage that most people will reach for the time being. Another important stage in development which is still quite rare is that of seeing gold in stead of violet, which indicates development towards Christ consciousness and the spiritual planes. (there being a difference between the psychic planes (etheric and astral) and the spiritual planes).

Uses of Colours in Development

One of the most precious gains you can achieve during meditation on the colours at this stage in development is that of impartiality. The object is not to become drawn in and focused on the colours and what they are doing. Observe them but let them flow, and allow your subconscious to do the analysis. When you progress to the ability to consciously bring these planes of awareness into conscious living, being able to remove your mental process's will strengthen your psychic clairvoyant ability.

Exercise one - Stepping into Vibration
This exercise is simple and the most basic exercise, which many of you may have already surpassed but i will place it here for completion. The objective is to slowly relax into meditation and let your attention drift to your 3rd eye chakra. Once you feel a vibration or pressure in the area, simply hold your attention there and allow the pressure to do whatever it pleases. This will slowly strengthen the etheric body of awareness in your third eye.

Exercise two - Observing Colour
Following on from exercise one slowly over time you will start to observe colours, once again simply observe do not judge or become involved in analysis of what you see as things will unfold on a subconscious level. You are now slowly attuning to the astral plane. At this stage you may begin to see faces or eyes, this is nothing to fear it is other beings curiously checking out the new light in town.

If you imagine the astral being a dark place where every being gives off its own light signature. Some light signatures are brighter than others and some are brighter than most. When your light signature stands out of the crowd you will attract beings like a moth to a flame. Just observe and release you are not required to do anything at this stage (though in the future you may become able to talk to these beings, some of whom may want help etc)

Exercise three - Tuning into the Upper Astral
As before when observing the colours, slowly let your attention shift from the colours dancing or drifting in the foreground to the darkness in the back ground. Over time, even though it is pitch black you may get a sense of depth and space this is you slowly tuning into the upper astral. Slowly over time you will observe a violet or purple colour, which brings with it a sense of peace and love.

There is much benefit in just holding your attention at this level, just remember do not become mentally involved in what you see, just observe and drift. In the last exercise you may have encountered faces, and some of these people may have wanted your attention, but now at this level, your wellbeing and progress is the only concern, we are starting to approach the higher spiritual realms.

Exercise four - Going With It
A direct lead on from the previous exercise this exercise involves psychicly exploring what is beyond the colours. All that is required is to let go. Previously I said that you should hold your attention and don’t become involved. This exercise requires that you become one with the ebb and flow. You may feel yourself spinning clockwise or falling backwards or forwards, do not panic you are perfectly safe, just go with it. During the early stages you will become over excited by simple things, but once you become used to the process and more able to just let go, you may find that many things are revealed to you, but the only way you will know is by going through the meditative process.

This exercise is outstanding for delivering the experiential progress which so many crave. I can not begin to describe the type of things or places you may see, as each individual is different, has different guides and teachers, and many different lessons. This exercise is the key to the gateway which holds those answers. It is very simple, and some of you may have already experienced things but never truly understood how you got there. You now have a system which you can repeat time and again in order to learn and grow.

Ever wondered how to Become Clairvoyant The next post gives an excellent exercise.

Psychic Development Exercise for Enhanced Intuition and Clairvoyance

One of the biggest blockages to Clairvoyance, Intuition and Psychic development or should I say psychic ability occurs when we are just children. Have you ever heard it said that children are extremely psychic? I bet you have! what changes? what stops those intuitive events from occurring later in life? Believe it or not "good parenting" prevents the continuance of psychic abilities.

Parents know that in order for them to instil discipline in a child and allow them to grow and function in the material world they must keep their child in the here and now. They attempt to stop their children using imagination to enhance their play experience by using statements like "its in your imagination" or "your making that up" or "stop daydreaming" and without realising it they are asking their child to stop flexing a set of very important spiritual muscles.

The ability to imagine or visualise, is the foundation of the psychic capacity of clairvoyance (the ability to see what others can not see). In our 3D material world, visualisation has almost been outlawed as if it were a form of insanity when in fact it is creative focus and the foundation of the manifestation of all abundance in the world of matter. In its most basic form "if you don’t have a dream, how are you going to have a dream come true?" Though it is not manifestation i am talking about today, but the psychic ability of clairvoyance.

If under use and avoidance of visualisation is a blockage to psychic clairvoyance then quite simply it stands to reason that in order to resurrect our hidden abilities we must master the art of visualisation through concentration on the imaginary.

Psychic Development Exercise

The following exercise, like many other spiritual exercises, is multi faceted, it is not only an exercise to increase clairvoyance through visualisation but improves concentration exponentially and gives you the strength and ability to look inside yourself in order to see what is there. Primarily this exercise is a mindfulness technique, but through its use you will find your intuition and clairvoyance will increase greatly.

The technique itself is very simple, yet extremely powerful.

First you must adopt a comfortable meditative position (preferably one where you can look without undue stress on your body at an object)

Breathe deep into the pit of your belly, and slowly start to relax and regulate your breath.

Choose an image, preferably a spiritual one (possibly an image of Jesus, or a piece of sacred geometry or a symbol, you can even use the naked flame of a candle).

Slowly focus on the image, taking in every detail, every colour every pen stroke.

Over time you will burn this image in your minds eye.

At this time gently close your eyes remaining focussed on the image in your minds eye.

Again without too much effort, see every colour and shade, every pen stroke every line.

If you lose the image gently open your eyes and refocus.

At some point during the visualisation of this image your mind will take over, and the image may start moving or rotating. It may get larger or smaller.

You may feel or smell the image, Just flow with it, allow the image to do what ever it wants to do.

At some point you will become so familiar with the image that you become one, with its energetic blueprint.

You will become so in tune with that image that you understand it without a word ever being spoken.

Your intuition has bridged the gap of separation and you have flexed your clairvoyance muscles.

Repeat this exercise as part of your spiritual practice, and you will regain the psychic ability to see that which others do not. The psychic power of clairvoyance.

Summary of Uses

Using this technique as a method to intuitively understand spiritual imagery, geometry etc will accelerate your journey through the path of knowledge to the path of wisdom. You will create for yourself a bed of understanding which will benefit you as you grow spiritually. It will take time and effort for your psychic clairvoyance to return but in the mean time your intuitive ability will grow and flourish.

There is not a single spiritual ability or indeed aspect of life which does not require concentration and focus in order to ensure success. This exercise will allow you to develop that hugely important skill which will pave your journey with spiritual gold. The main reason so many seekers can read about spirituality but not practice the concepts is due primarily to lack of concentration and focus. Through this exercise you will develop both.

This technique flexes the visualisation muscles which in many have lain dormant since childhood. By exercising them again you will be able to furnish the intuition, which you have developed relatively quickly, with a cloak of imagery. What you intuitively sense will be translated by the natural ability of our body to visualise, into an image of what is present that others do not see. Psychic Clairvoyance.
