[Opinion] Is there a difference betwewen Clairvoyance of Shamanic Trance & Ancestors vs Clairvoyance of Entities & Possession ?

[BushWhisperer]

Are there different types of clairvoyance?
What defines sorcery from magic or witchcraft? How are magic & mysticism polar opposites or, two sides of one coin?
Why do cult brain-washing techniques and occult initiation often seem similar in practice?
What differentiates Shamanic communion with the ancestors from, seances, possession, or left-hand occult path forms of sorcery?
If any of this interests you btw, as I am hosting a panel LIVE on YT in under half an hour to discuss these topics!

Hi BushWhisperer,

Seems like you are asking those questions rhetorically, especially if you have a live panel to discuss those quesitons.

From the school of training that I am from, sorcerery is loosely defined as magick worked for the benefit of oneself, for example a sorcerer is someone who conducts magick for their own benefit, while a wizard is one who conducts magick for the benefit of a community, and who works to increase the power and agency of those who are a part of the community.

Magic - is wonderous, and awe-inspiring, prestidigitation

While Magick (with a K) - is one's working to affect their will on a desired outcome through ritual, meditation, and the use of correspondences and timing and invoking of intelligent entites.

Posession is different from shamanic work in that one generally chooses to drop into Non-ordinary reality to work shamanically, while posession is not generally something one chooses to experience.

These are the generally definitions and principles as I understand these things. I would love to attend one of your panels in the future.
