| Summary |
Since the beginning of time, diviners and seers have found signs and omens in the world around them. Because these observers have been able to tap into a deeper level of awareness, they have come to sense hidden truths in powerful and mysterious ways. In modern times we call those who possess these abilities "psychic," but native cultures accepted that each of us has an innate sixth sense and can learn how to read the forces of nature that appear before us. Here, historian and psychic Sarvananda Bluestone shows us how our innate knowledge can be rediscovered. He teaches us to use everyday objects and the wonders of nature as magical tools that offer a window into the future--and ourselves. Whether watching birds cross the morning sky or divining the subtle energies of the earth, you will see the world in an entirely new light.--From publisher description. |
