CLAIRVOYANCE  (clear seeing)

 

A person said to have the ability of clairvoyance is referred to as a clairvoyant.

 

Clairvoyance is the art of 'seeing' with senses beyond the five we normally use, to perceive matters beyond the range of ordinary perception and is often called the 'sixth sense'.

Clairvoyance is the ability to gain information about an object, location or physical event through means other than the known human senses, a form of  extra-sensory perception.

Hundreds of years ago someone who possessed the gift of clairvoyance was considered a witch, as unknown knowledge was feared and forbidden by the authorities.
