TEMPORARY PSYCHIC
Try this little stunt the next time you find yourself with absolutely nothing whatever to do.
Be your own crystal gazer; your own psycho adviser person or fortune teller and see things you've never seen before ...well, maybe.
It's kid's stuff on surface, .but it can be interesting to older kids as well ...even puzzling.
To begin: take a clean, clear water glass . Fill it with water almost to the brim and place it on a low table before you. Seat yourself comfortably on a chair so that you can look directly down into the contents of the glass from above. You are now ready. All you have to do is relax – refrain from movement of yourself or of the table. Now - look - stare, intently into the surface of the water.
You may have wondered what it might be fortune tellers feign to see or actually do see, in the crystal ball they use. You are now doing it. Make no attempt to adjust any lighting. If you see nothing - change to a different area more alive with light reflections.
Case #1: I saw along corridor which appeared to be flowing away from me in deep, sharper than normal perspective. The floor was hardwood strips. I had a feeling it was evening or night time. To the right was a series of long windows, curtained in white, long and slim extending almost to the floor along a full length hallway toward an existing light area. Ahead was a more intense light - tinted yellow. Ahead in a doorway, in that yellowish glow of light, a thin girl stood in the doorway and seemed to be removing a heavy, knit sweater and re-arranging her tousled, brown hair,which was exceptionally long. I could not see the person to whom she was talking, only a shadow passing the doorway now and then. I did not know the girl. She just stood there talking to someone and did not notice me at all. She she did not acknowledge my being there. I went on down the hall.
Case #2: utter darkness in the water to start with and a light developed in the foreground and divided into two sections - upper and lower to show me the inside of a church. It could have been the church we attend but larger and more ornate. I realized I was seated above and behind organ pipes. I was look sing between them into the sanctuary, the high pulpit ahead of me and I suddenly realized the organ pipes, installed along the edge of the balcony were moving. I discovered, too, they were silver on the outside and, as one could see at the slots, they were gold inside. I was alone. The organ was not playing. There was no sound. It had a fuzzy, dreamlike quality about it all and I wondered about the pipes being gold on the inside and why they were in motion as they were like the long neon signs on buildings which spell out the news headlines. They were not all vertical, either, I found. A few leaned over the edge of the balcony and I felt they needed repair right away.
Case #3 same session : Longer than the others. Nothing developed after several tries. Uneasy in my mind. I should be doing something else. Inability to concentrate on not thinking which is essential. I did see a dark area with the expanse ...like a darkened TV screen - an entire cube and some flickering gray bands at times.
I decided to give it all up. Wisely, too, perhaps. We psychic tire easily. It's hard work keeping your mind blank on purpose for a a twenty minute session.
Compare your notes with others who have done the same thing but do not like to admit having tried such a stupid stunt. Just imagine , however, what such trivial trial must have meant to man kind over the centuries. Oracle ...prophet ....fortune teller... you can be all of them yourself!
You may think this to be silly, but it makes a great deal of séance to a good many people.
