It doesn't work.

What they pretend to do is done by cold reading or warm reading.

cold reading if done well can appear very impressive. Its all about getting the subject to tell you things whilst making them think you are telling them. Its done by making general statements or asking questions and following the subjects response.

Warm reading is having prior knowledge. It will often be done by having accomplices outside the theatres in foyers eavesdropping on conversations.
Also if you book for a psychic show and have the tickets sent to your home address, think how much information is available on the internet from that address.

To answer the question, its a load of b.s. There is no evidence to support 'clairvoyancy' just as there is no evidence to support horoscopes or telekenisis or ESP or any number of other superstitious beliefs.

The people who practice such things typically use a technique called 'cold reading.' This is basically a trick that uses very common, everyday experiences to try to solicit information from the person being 'read.'

For example, I could say that right now I'm getting a 'message' from someone in the afterlife that goes by the name of Joe or John or Jones. Is there anyone in your life, who has passed on, that has a name that sounds like this? Probably. From here, the 'reader' can build a story that builds on your reactions until you sware that the reader must be clairvoyant.

There's also 'warm reading' where the 'reader' has ready access to personal information about the subject. I could say, for example, that the spirit guide tells me that you have an interest in 'the criminal mind' and that you secretly wish you were stronger, and had muscles like a bodybuilder. Just because I'm right, it doesn't make me a clairvoyant.

Clairvoyance actual interprets as "clean creative and prescient" and does no longer unavoidably advise the potential to work out into the destiny. you're studies one among those pre-cognition, that's the potential to work out into the destiny - pre-cog actually potential, 'earlier theory'. Meditation and gaining expertise of to have Lucid Dreaming are all information on a thank you to help you strengthen your present. All people have some type of 6th sense that could contain precognition, telepathy, telekinesis, and different presents, inclusive of clairvoyance. yet actual clairvoyance isn't unavoidably seeing the destiny, yet seeing issues needless to say and can in many cases contain the potential to touch human beings and beings in different dimensions. My husband and that i'm able to nevertheless sense each and each others ideas at cases, and that i knew that my spouse's mom replaced into ineffective earlier we've been given word, even although i replaced into by no potential near to her. I on occasion get a feeling that some thing has merely or is approximately to take place seconds earlier I learn of it. it quite is my perception that each and one and all ideas and events are already there interior the ether, through fact time does no longer in all likelihood artwork linearly as we p.c. it to, and so specific vibrations of issues that are interior the ether might properly be picked up by potential of the two those experienced or people who've a stable organic sense of those forms of issues. many human beings interior the middle East and much East are plenty greater waiting to try this than us Westerners through fact the different Dimensions are actually not as denied and pushed aside as 'unreal' as they're right here. i might look for out a stable meditation grasp, or a Reiki grasp, or an capability worker for training in meditation and the potential to holiday to distinctive dimensions.

Sorry you want my opinion... i do not want to offend you! What a load of rubbish... You are telling me that when i die i 'm going to get in contact with some half wit from Bristol... i think not!

Sorry that is my opinion! Like i say... it's all a bit convenient that someone happens to get through just because you ask!

Look, when you die it takes 13 minutes for the brain to die... all the chemicals burst into overdrive as oxygen is starved... You will have a lifetime of memories flash by in them 13 minutes! then ta taa!

Stop being insecure... you do not need it... face up to the fact, that death will become all of us...

Thank you for emotive question...

Peace!

You will think I'm full of bologna, but this is true...
there are different types of spirits. One type of spirit is called a familiar spirit.
Every person on this planet has a familiar spirit assigned to them when they are born. Because it is ALWAYS with you, it becomes familiar with you. It knows your food preferences; your likes & dislikes; etcetera.
When you die, you either go to Heaven or Hell, but your familiar spirit stays in the spirit realm.
A clairvoyant THINKS they are 'talking' to the dearly departed you, but it is actually the familiar they are communicating with.
That is why much of the information the clairvoyant gets sounds somewhat accurate AND somewhat mixed up. The familiar may know you fairly well, but not perfectly.
