What is Clairvoyance?
From the beginning of the story characters have existed in every culture provided extraordinary psychic abilities, such as ClairvoyanceTo collect information on the past, the future or distant events. Consulted by augurs nobles and commoners, fortune tellers and psychics have been, and remains, a disturbing phenomenon parapsychic difficult to understand.
Existed since the beginning of time in absolutely every culture; diviners, soothsayers, shamans, mediums, magicians, prophets ... Men and women who, among other alleged abilities, possess the gift of knowing present events, past and future non-sensory.
Even today, almost all Indian tribes in Africa, Amazon, etc, there are witches and sorcerers who, besides having a disturbing knowledge of the pharmacopoeia of the rainforest, or traditional medicine, seem to enjoy extrasensory powers that allow them find events hidden from the rest of the tribe. Psychics experts, as veteran Stanley Kripner, scholar parapsychic powers of shamans and sorcerers have found the existence of these extrasensory abilities in some witches.
Far from the forest and the magical context of the African jungles, the deserts of Mexico or the Amazon jungle, where sorcerers wield their powers of clairvoyance, psychic Western laboratories are methodologically a century trying to study these abilities of the human mind. And fewer and fewer scientists and academics who question the existence of unconscious mechanisms in the brain that, for reasons not known, allows the phenomenon of clairvoyance.
Randomized generators figures, Zener cards, or more sophisticated computer programs are more ools used by parapsychologists to study the Extra-Sensory Perception. But regardless of these methodological studies try to find the psychic mechanisms of clairvoyance, countless professionals exercise this power in all Western cities.
The TAROT and other Mancias
Those who call themselves Seers used a thousand different ways to exercise Clairvoyance, And is accepted by the vast majority of esudiosos that all such systems are only mantic supports on which the seer information is sustained for extrasensory perception.
Certainly the list would be huge, but it can be meaningful to know the most famous Mancias by the Spanish. In 1993/94, the Madrid researcher Tahoces Clara, one of the greatest experts (theoretical and practical) in Mancias in Spain Mantei Development Project, a study to examine from different angles the current state of clairvoyance, psychics and divination in Spain. According to a survey by the Project elected Mantei from 200 random subjects (100 men and 100 women) the techniques of clairvoyance best known by the Spanish are, in this order:
-Cartomancy (TAROT)
-Palmistry (palm reading)
-Astrology
-Cafedomancia (coffee grounds and / or tea)
-Oneiromancy (Interpretation of Dreams)
-Crystallomancy (Crystal Ball, mirrors, etc)
-Numerology
"Dowsing (Dowsing)
-Runes
-I Ching
No wonder that Cartomancy clairvoyance technique is better known by the public. The proliferation of clinics TAROT, Casters Tarot cards and even computer has increased over the past 5 years.
Different authors place the origin of TAROT in Egypt, Babylon, and even Atlantis, but whatever their esoteric origins of the legendary French taya Eliphas Levi, or A Coruña Papus, the Tarot conferred intellectual infinite possibilities of its application beyond semantics.
Studies such as the classic Curt Gebelin the last century, revealing the infinite possibilities of the Tarot symbolic, especially of its "21 plus 1" arcana. However, with few exceptions, currently used mostly on the esoteric TAROT as a tool of clairvoyance.
There are many classic runs TAROTAs "The seven-pointed star," "The horseshoe roll", "The Celtic cross," "The tree of life", etc. However, many professionals who defend the free circulation of interpretation and the arcana of the Tarot. According to these views, the fascinating figures of the arcane contain enough symbols in their shapes, patterns, and to provide support to the intuition of the seer. In other words, while some fortuneteller advocate a rigid meaning of each card, others advocate a liberal interpretation of each card in terms of suggesting the viewer at all times and consultation.
But not only the TAROT live Cartomancy. There are plenty of cards and card games, in addition to the classic Tarot de Marseille, as the Spanish deck, the Tarot Balbi, the Esoteric, the French cards, etc. Assuming that the letters are just a blind support for the power of Cartomante, any card game can be used to "lay the cards."
QAstrology uiromancia and Mancias "accurate?
For many palmistry and astrology differ from the rest of transhumance in which the Marja of clairvoyance and intuition, "exact science" by having a hardware independent of the assumptions of the seer. But that is very debatable.
Apparently the lines of the hand, a fundamental pillar of palmistry, say the past, future and character of the client. If this is a little matter who the palm reader. Knowing the meaning of the Mount of Venus, Mars and Apollo, and the life line, heart or head, the prediction would fall by itself, without regard to any of the seer to seer. This is the approach of those who intend to present palmistry as a "science".
So would Astrology. The houses, aspects, or astrological transits have, for many astrologers, an exact meaning. So Jupiter and Mars in a particular house of the chart, the Ascendant, Midheaven, or other aspects (trines, Sestil, squares, etc) mean one thing or another. Given this approach the astrologer would be a technician who just produced a chart and list the aspects of the consultant to notify their meaning. However quirólogos and seasoned astrologers disagree with this sterile approach, advocating a psychic factor in these Mancia.
Quirólogos for more experts in addition to the lines and mounts, other features of the hand like shape, texture and even fingerprints, contain tremendous value for the quiroanálisis. Some, like Isabela Herranz, one of the most prestigious and veteran specialists, go further, pointing out that sometimes the simple physical contact with the hands of the consultant develops a kind of psychometric properties in some palm reader, how easy are not sensorial perceptions have nothing to do with the lines of the hand.
Similarly some astrologers let flow her intuition when faced with a chart, allowing the symbols of the horoscope "will talk" by providing data that have little to do with a rigid interpretation of planetary transits. That would be the psychic manifestation of Astrology.
Cafe, dreams and crystals
The image of an old gypsy examining the grounds into a cup of coffee is one of the most beloved and classic prints when representing a seer.
The cafetomanciaOr tasoegrafía, probably has its origins in ancient China. The Chinese observed the omens bells inside (if they turn down Chinese tea cups look like little bells). Thus, the tea cups were associated with the ancient oracles of bells and the patterns formed by the tea leaves inside the cups were eventually acquired a divinatory meaning.
Over time taseografía spread to other formulas as well as the dregs of tea. Waste of any beverage, including coffee, are likely to be analyzed by a psychic divination. The ancient Romans, for example, read the dregs of wine. The drawings left by the sediments of any liquid in the bottom of the glass or cup is always considered of great importance in predicting the future of the drinker.
Other methods Clairvoyance are similar or ceromancia molibdomancio. The first has its origins in the medieval alchemists poured melted lead or tin in cold water for your search of the "Philosopher's Stone", allowing this technique adceder the future. The ceromancia, As its name suggests, replaces incandescent lead inofensiba wax, which melted over a bowl of water takes fanciful forms that have to be interpreted blind. The principle is basically the same as the childhood pastime of seeing imaginary figures in the clouds we fly, just that these imaginary figures gives the seer prophetic symbolism.
Oneiromancy, or interpretation of dreams, lost in time. Notorious are the oracles dream of Joseph to Pharaoh of Egypt, to prophesy seven years of wealth and seven of misery after his dream of seven fat cows and seven skinny, as recounted in the Old Testament.
In some primitive peoples today still gives more value to dreams than real life, believing that true reality is we live in our dreams, as in Calderon's play, our lives would be only a dream.
Oneiromancy has absolutely nothing to do with the psychoanalytic interpretation of dreams, Sigmund Freud which has its main precursor. Seers assume that, during sleep, the mental noise that gives us the status of monitors, with their stress, anxiety and stress, constantly giving way to a state of total relaxation extrasensory perception that allows much more easily than during our daily lives.
Again, it is obliged to quote the renowned parapsychologist Stanley Kripner. As director of the Maimonides Medical Center and the Scientific Laboratory of the Brooklyn Dreams (New York) Kripner has studied the phenomenon of precognitive dreams, and ESP in dreams, coming to the conclusion that during the dream, as in other altered states of consciousness clairvoyance (ESP) can be seen more easily.
Regarding crystallomancy also has different manifestations. It would be absurd to speak of clairvoyance and Mancias without citing the crystal ball, one of the universal emblems of soothsayers and seers. The crystal ball is one of the best examples of support of a natural faculty. The absolute concentration of our consciousness in these fascinating crystalline spheres occurs within the same all types of images, then the seer has to interpret.
Mercedes Quintana, one of the most experienced experts in crystal ball tells us that you can use indirect lighting, the flame of a candle, or other auxiliary tools to bring these random images inside the ball that the concentration of psychic cast on based on their ESP. Mercedes Quintana is indisputable that the crystal ball itself has no magical ability, "is just a support of my clairvoyance."
But there are other forms and applications. Parapsychology called Hialoscopia all manifestations of the ESP produced by polished surfaces like mirrors, glass, or the surface of a container with water.
Dr. Raimond Moody, for example. became world famous in the wake of his book Life After Life, but over the years expanded its research parapsychological to a particular application of Hialoscopia. Today, Dr. Moody uses large antique mirrors to a kind of "tuning" of a consultant with their relatives or friends who have died. An update of a form of necromancy applied for centuries by the ancient wizards.
The Mancias unknown
According to surveys conducted for the Project Mantei who led Clara Tahoces, numerology, dowsing, runes and I Ching are the latest ranked among the 10 Mancias best known by the Spanish.
Said the famous Greek philosopher Pythagoras that all things are numbers. Based on this assertion many viewers found in numerology a new medium for their abilities. It is classic analysis of the date of birth, adding all its digits and summarized a unique number that has a specific meaning.
It is also classic translation of the letters of our names to numbers (there are several tables equibalencias numeric-alphabetic) once again combined to acquire a single number mantic interpretation. But ultimately these practices are not only fribolizaciones the Hebrew Kabalah, one of the most complex and fascinating subjects of "hermetic sciences."
Regarding the dowsing (dowsing) is very popular application for search of water. The image of the dowser holding a stick of hazel, tracking an area in search of an underground river is archetypal. But besides the stick of hazel there are other instruments commonly used by dowsers, as the well-known pendulum or rods parallel.
The dowsing I've raised great controversy, about whether we can consider or not transhumance, but the discussion takes on other dyes when it comes to tele-dowsing, where the function semantics of the dowser is much more evident.
While the parallel rods, like the classic rod shape of "Y", are useful in prospecting "field", tele-dowsing is practiced largely with the help of the pendulum. In this case the dowser walks not in the field looking for metal objects, streams or bodies buried, but uses a map on which rides the pendulum in search of missing persons, lost or even archaeological ruins.
Vera Kallas is a visionary German based in Valencia working with several German museums. Vera uses the pendulum over maps and plans to locate archaeological sites, megalithic sites, etc. To act in our letters of thanks from those museums psychological researches of the dowser. This time the pendulum would be responsible for amplifying muscle movements unconscious caused by the mind of the seer, who ultimately would be the one star in extrasensory perception of this or that information.
Runes and R Ching found end our bracket list clairvoyance. Oracle Viking the first and Chinese second, both use a physical instruments (stone ones and coins other) to provide the viewer the symbols to be interpreted according to its consultation.
Towards centuries I or II BC Germanic peoples of northern Europe began to use a composite alphabet characters called runes. According to the Norwegian myth these runes come from Odin, the god of one eye of the hidden wisdom, protector of heroes. Norwegian runic teachers used runes to predict future events, even as they also give many other uses, such as healing, protection, climate control, etc. They also had a talismanic function, as recorded in the swords of the warriors to improve the fighting capacity, or in charms to attract love, prosperity, etc. No wonder that Hitler frequently used the runes on the symbolism of the troops of the Reich.
