The Psychic Way is everything you need to know about being super-intuitive plus how to use the knowledge for pleasure or to ensure success in business.


I found this book fascinating.  Barbara has such an easy going writing style, her tone is more conversational than lecturing.  She goes into just a little detail about many different ways you might use psychic ability, such as divination or psychic readings with people.

She also defines lots of different ideas.  Personally I loved when she talked about the Chakras and defined all the different “clairs” and “mancies”…there isn’t just “Clairvoyant” and the mancies are unique and not often heard of.  Anthropomancy – using human entrails (ewwww) or bibliomancy – using books (there’s the one for me!).

All through the book she has guided meditation that you can use as is, or adjust to fit your needs.  She often encourages the reader to do what works for them.  And I love when she talks about doing readings for people, if you don’t get an answer to their inquiry, tell the person the truth.  Save your reputation by always being honest…and respect people’s privacy.  Open up your third eye and you might learn things you weren’t expecting.

If you are looking for a book to help improve your own psychic abilities, this is a great place to start…
