Practicing your psychic ability makes it stronger
DEAR BONNIE » I was in an antique shop recently, and as I was looking around, I felt an urgent need to leave the building. I believe I was being affected by all the energy I was feeling as I walked around. Do you believe that other energies are still around? Thanks. — Jaimie
DEAR JAIMIE » I do know that happens to many people when they go into public places like antique shops where objects that used to belong to someone are sitting around. The energy can be breathtaking if you are a sensitive person who can sense the energy of others or objects that used to belong to others. Most of us have that ability, but others seem to tune into that energy field more quickly than some.
Psychometry is a psychic ability in which a person can sense or “read” the history of an object by touching it. A person takes an object and holds it within their hands and impressions can appear or be perceived, such as images, sounds, smells, tastes, and emotions. Psychometry is a form of scrying — a psychic way of “seeing” something that is not visible to the ordinary eye. These visions start to appear with a person who is holding the object. The object can be anything, a picture, key chain, ring, or anything really because energy is stored in everything living or not. With psychometry, this extraordinary vision is available through touch.
A psychometrist is a person who has psychometric abilities can hold any object and tell you the history behind the object and the person who owned such object, and the experiences the person had while the object was in their possession. A psychic may sense what the person was like, what they did for a living, or how they passed. Even though this might not be your profession, everyone has the ability to feel and sense energy. It takes practice. That old saying that everything takes practice is so true when you are trying to build your psychic abilities, and psychometry is one of them.
So, let’s practice:
1. Choose a quiet location free of noises and distractions; I suggest doing a light meditation first and setting your mind free of the clutter that blocks us from receiving information from the spirit world.
2. Sit back with your eyes closed and ask a person to place an object into your hands without saying anything to you. If you can do this in a group and you don’t know who is giving you the object, it’s most helpful. The thing should be something the person has had in their possession for a long time.
3. Quiet the mind once more — be still and let images and feelings come into your mind. Please don’t force them; let them seemingly appear.
Say whatever you see, hear, or feel when holding the object.
4. Don’t judge the information that you are getting; just be open to receive. The impressions you are getting might be meaningless to you but have great significance to the object’s owner.
5. Don’t edit yourself or try to make your statement mean something. Instead, blurt out what information you are receiving; it’s not yours to hang onto. Some information might seem vague, and others very detailed.
6. The more you practice and use this ability, the stronger it will become. Your guides need to know how to work best with your psychic ability. You might easily see into the spirit world, or hear or sensing feelings easily might be your thing. Don’t give up.
When going into an antique shop or an estate sale, make sure to ground your energy so you feel centered. Psychometry is a great way to practice with the spirit world and to realize we all have our distinct energy and that energy and ourselves never dies. We all live on sometimes in the things that meant the most to us. Indeed, our families but also in the objects that we held close to us.
