Psychic Enchantress

Mason wasn’t at school on Monday, nor Tuesday. He didn’t answer or return my calls. Its like he went ghost.

Its wednesday and still no sign of him.

“I’m worried guys.” I looked at my friends, sitting around our table in the caf.

“Like I said. Don’t worry about it. He does this all the time.” Jake reassured.

“Where does he go?” I questioned.

Jake looked hesitant like he didn’t want to leak a secret. Oh Jake, you are so lucky I got in my contacts, because I would’ve read your mind already. But I can still sense your nervousness.

“Fine don’t tell me. I’ll go over his house.” I decided.

“No!” Jake said way too quickly.

Everyone looked at him confused as to why he’s holding back such valuable info from me. I know i shouldn’t push him but its been three days dammit.

“Jake tell me now, or I swear to you, i’ll rip the little bit of hair you have on your chest.” I threatened.

“How do you even know I have hair on my chest?” A little taken aback by my threat. He rubbed his chest to prove to me that he did have a lil chest hair there.

“A wild guess. ” I mused. I know I couldn’t go over Mason’s house because I had to meet with my Gran’s friend who’s also a Psyhic.

I didn’t bother push the conversation because I was very much occupied with by own thoughts.

The minute the bell had rung, I sprinted towards my car. Gran gave me her friend’s address and I was readily on my way.

It didn’t take much to find her house. I parked outside and stared at the one story house. It looked a bit eery. It had trees, and bushes at the front that hid the house itself.

I stepped out my car and grabbed my bag and phone. Walking towards the front door, I sensed peace and serenity so I wasn’t that much creeped out anymore.

I knocked the wooden door and I heard someone walking towards it.

A petite middle aged lady with caramel skin, black hair, black eyes with heavy eye liner that made her eyes itself cat like, smiled at me.

“Hello Xayla.” She welcomed.

“Come in” she offered, walking away, leaving me with the option to back away and head back to my car.

I walked in and closed the door behind me. Her house seemed welcoming but it still and that eeriness about it. She had up dark curtains that blocked out any light so the only light inside, were coming from the lamps she had turned on.

“I’m waiting Xayla.” She called, from another room.

I walked to the sound of her voice and stopped at the door of a room that had a lot of books on shelves. It had the ‘old book’ sorta smell.

“Take a seat.” She smiled, pointing to the chair in front of her.

I took my seat and looked at her, expectantly. A table separated us that had a glass ball on it.

“What’s the first thing you sensed, walking up to my house?” She calmy questioned.

“Well uh, it looked creepy but I sensed peace and serenity coming from within. Even though it looked creepy, what I felt from it was comfort.” I explained slowly.

“I see. Do you know other people who pass by are literally afraid of coming even one feet towards my porch. ” she mused.

“Why is that?” I baffled.

“Because they don’t sense the same as you. Do you know why is that?” She inquired.

“Ummmm because their stupid?” I joked.

She giggled at that.

“No because your senses are very much heightened so you sense things that others won’t. That’s one ability us Psychics have. We’re able to sense the good and the bad in things and people. ” she smiled.

“Oh well that makes sense.” I replied, looking at her.

“Tell me what you’ve discovered so far about your ability.” She instructed, still sporting the genuine smile. I felt like I could trust her with anything.

“Well, so far I can know what a person is thinking by touching them and not, I can sense what their feeling, I can know what happened in their past and how it impacted them by looking into their eyes and I can also absorb some of the emotions they have. Oh and just recently, I had my first vision.” I listed.

“Well, you have a lot to learn.” She smiled.

“I’m willing to.” I reassured.

“Well then let’s get started.” She got up and picked the glass ball in her hands.

“Follow me” she instructed.

I followed her into another room. It was much smaller, dimly lit room with a bulb at the center of the room, and it only had a carpet and two chairs facing each other.

She moved the chairs and sat down on the carpet folding her legs. I did so myself, facing her.

She placed the glass ball between us and took a deep breath.

“We have four major abilities. Clairvoyance, Clairsentience, Clairaudience and Claircognizance. While the less common ones are Clairalience and Clairgustance. We also can teleport, having an outer body experience” She paused, giving me a chance to soak it in.

“Clairvoyance is an inner seeing. Some call it the third eye. Seeing into the future, by having a vision or simply seeing a number or color that may or not have any importance. ” she continued.

“Clairsentience, feeling the emotions of others. You have experience in that so far. So I don’t think you need any insight on that do you?” She chuckled.

I shook my head giving a chuckle myself.

“Clairaudience, like the name suggest is all about hearing. Using your ears but not the physical one. It sounds a bit weird but let me explain. We’re able to hear things that others can’t, such as spirit voices, sounds and even music.” She paused.

“Wait hold up. Are you saying i’m able to speak to ghosts?” I shreaked.

“Yes, you are.” She replied calmly, ignoring my outburst.

“Claircognizance is the ability to just know something without logic or facts. Like the way you could tell it was safe to enter my house and sit here with me today. Or, you can sense that you should do something immediately like, lock the door because you sense strongly that you should. If you didn’t then something terrible happens like someone barging in holding you at gun point. Its like that but even stronger for someone like you. Like us” she continued.

“Woah. That’s cool.” I grinned.

“As for the other two, Clairalience and Clairgustance. You can experience both when talking to a spirit. You could be talking to a spirit and you suddenly smell rain, or you suddenly taste chocolate. Why , because the spirit you may be talking to probably died in the rain or that spirit loved chocolate.” She proceeded.

“So are you saying I can just sit here and talk to a spirit?” I inquired.

“Yes you can. Knowing what and how to do, you can. You’ll learn all of that today.” She answered.

“Awesome” murmured to myself.

“Okay let’s start with the meditation aspect. This will open all your psychic abilities. Just be sure to do this at least once per day to keep you fresh and relaxed. ” she said standing up.

She dragged both chairs in the center of the room to face each other. I got up and waited on the instructions.

“Take a seat.” She ordered softly.

I did as told and waited patiently.

She sat on the chair across from me

“Okay firstly. Position your feet flat on the ground. As if their being rooted there like a tree. Then place your hands in your lap, palms faced upwards.” She instructed and I did as told.

“Now close your eyes and take a deep breath through your nose and let it out through your mouth counting to three in you mind. Do it twice.” She instructed once more.

Inhale. Exhale. One. Two. Three. Inhale. Exhale. One. Two. Three.

“Are you relaxed? Nod slowly in response.” She said calmly.

I nodded.

“In your mind, ask your spirit guides for protection. Ask them that low vibrational energies be allowed through now or ever. Afterwards. Set the intention that thus meditation is for your good and your good only. Never forget that step. Now do as I say In your mind. Nod slowly when you’re finished. ” she whispered.

Spirit guides. I ask of you for protection. I ask that low vibrational engergies be allowed through now or ever. My intention for this session, is for good and my good only.

I then nodded my head slowly.

“Think of something that symbolizes you being open to receiving information from your spirit. It may be a book opening, a candle being lit or a flower opening. Nod slowly after.”

I symbolized a rose being opened.

I nodded slowly to her.

The minute I did that, I felt a pricking sensation in my fingers and I felt a sense of happiness wash over me.

“Xayla, picture the book closing, the candle light outing or the flower closing. Then open your your eyes. ”

I picture the rose closing and opened my eyes to see her looking at me questionably.

“What did you just experience? Tell me” she asked.

“Well I felt this pricking in my fingers and felt happy.” I smiled.

“It seems that your spirit guide is welcoming you.” She smiled.

“How do you know?” I asked, confused.

“Well that’s the way I felt the very first time I meditated and called upon them.” She smiled yet again. This lady sure can smile.

“Oh okay. “I sighed.

“Would you like to continue with today’s activities with me knowing that is getting late or would you prefer stopping by another time ” she offered.

“No that’s okay.....” Trying to remember her name.

“Maria.” She smiled.

“Maria.” I sighed.

I was way too excited to learn all these stuff to come back another time. Rather do it now and get it over with.

“Okay, let’s continue.” She replied, closing her eyes, inhaling a deep breath. I did the same.
