What is Psychometry???
Psychometry is the ability to read and tune into an object so that you can give details about it, it owners and its history.
The main use of psychometry is in identifying its owner - and their experiences.
The auric field of the object contains within it the information of all that the object has come into contact with. Much like a diary or file of events. When you are sensitive enough you are able to tune into that field, and you can then access and see those memories that are stored. You can then use them to identify whom the object belongs to, that person and their feelings, and also a number of other things about both the item and the owner.
Many mediums use psychometry as a means to obtaining a link with the person that they are reading for - the object gives them a focus to help them to sharpen and heighten there abilities. Police investigations have used psychometrists on items belonging to victims - or clues left at the scenes of crimes to try and identify criminals and cure crimes.
The term psychometric was coined in 1842 by an American physician and scientist, J Rhodes Buchanan who spent a large part of his life exploring psychic phenomenon. He made the word from the Greek word Psyche, meaning soul and metron meaning measure. Therefore a literal translation would be soul measuring.
Choosing the right object upon which to practice is important - beginners are better off using an object that does not have mixture of vibrations from a variety of people. Something that is regularly worn or used by the same person is excellent - particularly jewelry and watches which are worn almost daily.
Avoid practicing on gemstones or crystals as they have strong vibrations of there own.
It may be necessary for you to say what you feel to start with - and in doing this you may feel unsure. But don't be afraid to ask a few questions to get you started, but don't fish for info - if you do you are only fooling yourself.
Settle yourself comfortably with the object in your hands. Visualize white light entering your body from above and flowing down through you. This may take time - but don't rush yourself. Say what you think or feel as you sit there. Gently rub the item with your finger tips and allow images or thoughts to form in your mind.
Don't be put off if the first few attempts produce no results - this is quite normal. It can take time to learn to tune in enough for it to work.
Also if the owner of an object says that things you say aren't right - don't feel disheartened. Ask them how long they have had the object and whether they know its previous history. It could be that you have tuned into a previous owner or some such thing.
