One Psychic's Reaction to

Beverly Jaegers'

The Psychic Paradigm

By Lorrie Kazan

(Who prepared a summary of Jaeger's book)  

“Bevy always stressed that the way to proficiency in Hand Analysis is to
master the indications.   She taught that study, rather than intuition,
makes for progress.  Her approach was scientific, empirical and based on
observation and practice.”
  --Vivian Papson, Certified Hand Analyst

So much of what I do is about reading symbols, working with and on inner growth, and that’s what interests me.  As a psychic I’m more about what Freud called “free form attention,” i.e., making the intuitive links in a client’s story and in diverse areas of their lives, to see patterns, blind spots, and offer alternatives that will make a difference.

I can’t seem to get interested in what seem like repetitive exercises to develop ESP upon command, and yet I can respect the ability as long as it’s coupled with the seer’s right intention.  I think “right intention” is fairly obvious and relates to the spiritual perspective that Edgar Cayce and others like him have talked about.  It’s not about the abuse of power but allowing ourselves to be used by a loving higher power.

Much of what I do in my own life involves waiting, watching, being with whatever shows up in the moment (often discomfort).  Discomfort can arise just from being with “not knowing” in order to allow the universe to provide a host of possible answers, and from those possible “answers,” intuiting something new, achieving what may be termed an “inner knowing.”   Personally, I live with a lot of questions.

As a professional psychic, I am expected to provide answers, to remove doubt about the future, and often I can do that.  More powerful, however, is the process I see reflected in the Tarot’s Major Arcana.  Soul development, individuation, whatever you wish to call it, is part of a larger process. It’s no wonder the grail myth works so well for Tarot, the idea that we are able to go into a dark wood and with no map find our way to another side.

It’s possible to expand one’s abilities in sensory perception, precognition, remote viewing without developing greater depth and awareness as a soul.  Certainly remote viewing (a kind of clairvoyance) has been successfully taught to all sorts of people, though some have had mental and emotional issues result from their focus on the practice to the exclusion of creating a container in the psyche or soul to handle the increased visions.  Like wine tasting, one can learn to identify and separate sensations, textures, become a practitioner but not necessarily become a creative force.

Clients want ESP, predictions.  ”Where am I going?  Will I meet someone?  Get married?  Make money?  On what date will so and so die?”  We want to know the book is worth reading, the movie worth seeing.  A querent once asked Edgar Cayce something to the effect of “will I die in the Bahamas as another psychic predicted?”  His response was tongue-in-cheek.  “Well, if you go to the Bahamas, and you get sick there, you could end up dying there.”  He refused to give the client confirmation that her future was preordained.  Instead he stressed free will and her power to choose.

Metaphysically we know that that an attitude shift can change a thousand things, including the direction of one’s life.  Even a subtle inner change can change others’ reaction to us.  There’s a saying, “If you want to keep getting what you’re getting, keep doing what you’re doing.”

We’re at a crossroads more often than we know—and this is where intuition and spirituality can intervene and shed new light in all its varied colors.  We have the opportunity to re-view our circumstances, react differently (or not react at all).  We can shift inner and outer behavior and manifest different results.

Does that kind of intervention solve crimes?  No, but it has the potential to prevent some.  It’s detective work for the soul, the shamanic journey into the otherworld.  It’s not “just the facts ma’am and nothing but the facts.”  After all, what are the facts of the soul?
