We exist in a continual NOW, for the past moment is as dead as Pharaoh. our next experience simply awaits our arrival.

I'm not a clairvoyant but I do think you're right. I've never believed in Time as a vector. I therefore don't think it's possible to travel backwards or forwards in time. How can you when you can't grasp where time is or how fast it's actually going? We may carry watches, but they measure time at the speed we want them to, not necessarily at the speed it's travelling at. But as it happens, we have no real proof that time exists. Watches, diaries, calendars, they're all things we as humans invented. I don't think these things measure time but just certain periods.

We do not know what time is. We usually can only define it as the space in between events. How it is structured is certainly uncertain. In general, our culture experiences it as a linear, one way experience. Different cultures might see it differently, as a cyclic phenomenon, or as an all pervasive "vapour".
We can only experience the NOW. We remember the past, and plan the future. We regard the past as fixed, the future as fluid. We feel we come from a past we know but cannot change, and go into an unknown but alterable future.
This is a cultural construct. Judaism, Christianity and Islam are based on this concept, as are some other religions, (including apparently that of Egypt). Though they still include a prophetic element that suggests that the future is fixed, and that free will is not complete.
Hinduism and Buddhism prefer a cyclic view of time, and regard it(and matter) as illusory, and something to escape from.
The animists and natural mystics tend to think of all time being present in the here and now, and that is how they can communicate with the ancestors or prophecy.
As a clairvoyant, you probably tend towards the latter view. It is one way to explain how clairvoyance might be possible.

I am faraoh in two years, please not say I am dead already without me noticing. Time is there in effort and clairvoyancy, you denied its knowledge and feel it is only right that only you attract and ... yes, get laid with many girls from Colombia, Peru, USA and Canada, well that does not seem flirting to me too. You are not clairvoyant, as many already saw the faint mustard green on your ajna chakram. This is not good Colin, your mommy will not punish you this month though the garden will await your current services, please not pee on the neighbour´s yard, he did see you once. The other side´s girl does not want your tone or conversation, and I can foresee she does appreciate my words and instructions. Close your snout.

How can our next experience await our arrival? You just said time doesn't exist, so there is no future, past OR present.

I disagree, time must exist. Say I throw a ball up in the air. I measure how long its flight is with a measurement called time, using a standardized system of minutes and seconds. Everything on this earth is subject to time, whether it be decomposition or growth.

I am pretty much sceptical on this clairvoyance thing. There is Time but the past has passed and tomorrow never comes and I am going take another blue tablet and try and get my head around all this time thing..........

You've got to believe that time exists or you cant be a proper clairvoyant. "In three days your roof will fall on you." Now that is time based. Enjoy.

Time is just an expression of the passage of life. Made by Humans to be able to plan to do things. It would appear to be a required dimension of an intelligent species to be able to exist.

It all depends on how you perceive time. Time is just a measure of existence. Nothing greater or more mysterious than that. What existence is in its entirety is the real question
