But back to our tape recorder, the psychic can then be thought of as a tape player, playing back the information stored on the object. The information is picked up by the subconscious mind. But here is another way to explain how this works. Imagine you are reading a book, the TV is on in the background. Although not a perfect example, I hope it goes someway to explaining how the information arrives.
Strong emotions seem to be stored well on objects.
Psychics are often able to pick-up on these signatures. The imprints left on objects could relate to any information, a location, a time, a feeling -all seem to be stored. A medium may choose to start with Psychometry during a reading, as I often do, to help link into the person. This will enable some basic details to be picked up about the person and help gain some trust from them. Try it for yourself You can try Psychometry for yourself by asking a friend for an object, a watch, a ring, cigarette lighter, wallet etc.
