Psychometry is a form of psychic divination using the sense of touch to read the energy or history held in an object. Psychometric imprints may come in the form of emotions, sounds, scents, tastes or images. The type visions that appear depend on the Psychic, some see clear images, words might come to mind, sometimes a strong scent appears, or the Psychic gets a taste in the mouth or starts to feel strong empathic emotions. As we exist in an electromagnetic energy reality, metal objects often work best.
What are the origins of Psychometry?
The term was first used in 1842 by Joseph R. Buchanan, an American physiologist, who claimed it could be used to measure the 'soul' of all things. Buchanan further said that the past is entombed in the present. Buchanan experimented with some students from Cincinnati medical school and found that when certain students where given an unmarked bottle of medicine they had the same reaction as if they had taken the medicine. He developed the theory that all things give off an emanation which contained a sort of record of the history of the object. He believed that objects recorded senses and emotions and these could be played back in the mind of the psychometric scryer.
