Remote Viewing in Sidereal Time Can Enhance Telepathy
There appears to be evidence that psychic phenomena can be affected by external factors, including geomagnetic forces and our alignment with the cosmos. As strange as this may sound, researcher James Spottiswoode discovered significant data showing that remote viewing in sidereal time is directly correlated with success, or lack thereof, based on our orientation to the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. Though, he doesn’t know exactly why.
How One Researcher Knew to Calculate Sidereal Time
Sidereal time is a method used by astronomers to keep track of celestial objects. It is based on a time scale of Earth’s rotation in relation to fixed stars in the sky and was used to discover the mysterious nature of pulsars, the highly-magnetized, rotating neutron stars – a source of gravitational waves. But Spottiswoode’s use of sidereal time could point to something more intriguing than gravitational waves; possibly a source emitting or influencing our consciousness.
At a certain point during the day, our zenith, or the point in the sky directly above us, aligns with a particular point in the galaxy. Rather than measuring time based on the Earth’s orientation with the sun, one can measure time based on Earth’s orientation to this galactic point. Days measured in this sense are shorter than solar days by about four minutes, lagging by a little more than one day per year.
So, what does this have to do with remote viewing and psychic phenomena? It turns out that there are peak times during the day when our orientation to the galactic center can enhance success with remote viewing and psychic ability, what Spottiswoode refers to as anomalous cognition. There are also times during the day when psychic ability can be adversely affected by our orientation with the galaxy.
Spottiswoode came to this conclusion by examining a dataset of 20 years worth of psychic research, containing 1,524 trials, between 22 different studies. He found a 400 percent spike in the success rate of tests from remote viewing sessions and wondered what could be causing it. Upon initially examining the time of day when the sessions were being conducted, based on solar time, he kept finding discrepancies. But when organizing the data based on sidereal time, Spottiswoode found a correlation.
At 13:30 h local sidereal time (LST), the data showed that one would have 400 percent greater success with remote viewing. At this time, our planet is oriented with the Milky Way so that the galactic center is located directly on the horizon. This daily period of peak psychic cognition lasts for about three and a half hours, from 12:45 to 14:15 h LST. When the center of the galaxy is directly overhead, or at our zenith, psychic cognition drops to its lowest point, between 17.5 and 20 h.
This Spottiswoode Peak, as it came to be known, had to be connected with something outside of our solar system because sidereal time is based on right ascension, or a longitudinal line to a fixed point in the sky, which rules out anything local due to planetary movement.
But what exactly was this data that Spottiswoode was analyzing and who was he exactly?
Is Remote Viewing Real?
James Spottiswoode is a parapsychologist who has worked on an array of government-funded projects investigating psychokinesis and ESP. He also worked with the Stanford Research Institute during its CIA-funded remote viewing program, known as the Star Gate Project. During his time studying telepathy, Spottiswoode ran experiments testing quantum optics and extremely low-frequency electromagnetic waves on psychic functions.
In addition to discovering the sidereal effect, Spottiswoode found correlations between solar wind and geomagnetic activity in his measurements of anomalous cognition.
During times of low geomagnetic activity, he found that there was an increase in telepathic experiences. This he says, is the only known physical variable that affects anomalous cognition. Geomagnetism is due to interactions between solar wind and the ionosphere, when ionized plasma from solar storms hits the Earth, causing fluctuations in our geomagnetic field. So, if you want to optimize your remote viewing session, make sure you fall within the right sidereal window and plan to view when the solar forecast is clear.
But with all of this evidence, is remote viewing actually real? What did Spottiswoode make of all of this? While his goal was to look empirically at the data and not attempt to measure the quality of the successful sessions, he concluded that the effect sidereal time had on remote viewing was indeed real. He collected data from a new sample of 1015 trials to verify his findings on the original set, reaching the same conclusion. But could there have been a more mundane explanation?
He said that had he found it to correlate with our solar day, he would have associated the phenomenon with circadian rhythms or our scheduled work days, but this wasn’t the case. “…I’ve checked my data carefully and those kinds of effects could not mimic the sidereal correlation I found. Don’t ask me what it is, but it’s real,” he said.
Further research has found the same effect to occur on precognition in animals. One study found a correlation with the 13.5 h sidereal time on Zebra Finches’ precognitive reaction to a stimulus. A correlation was also found on a precognitive test run by Rupert Sheldrake, another researcher who studies psychic phenomena. During this experiment, subjects were tested to see if they could tell who was calling them on the phone before answering. They found subjects were significantly more likely to predict their caller during the peak, 13.5 h sidereal time, compared to the 19 h sidereal time.
If Spottiswoode’s discovery is real it warrants further research into the phenomenon and what could possibly be causing it. Unfortunately, government funding in projects relating to psychic phenomena and remote viewing was cut years ago, at least as far as we know. But for those who meditate, remote view, or astral project, sidereal time should be taken into consideration during your practice. It’s relatively easy to calculate, with websites that let you know what your LST is. Have you ever experienced enhanced psychic cognition due to sidereal time?

What Is Clairvoyance and How to Develop It
Clairvoyance is a psychic ability that allows the perception of events, people, or places beyond the reach of normal physical senses. This perception can manifest through visions, mental images, or even lucid dreams. In this article, we explore what clairvoyance is, its different types, and how you can develop this ability to enrich your spiritual connection.

What Is Clairvoyance?
Clairvoyance is a form of extrasensory perception that involves the ability to see beyond physical reality. People with this ability can receive mental images or visions that provide information about past, present, or future events. This information can come in the form of detailed scenes, symbols, or fleeting images that require interpretation.
Unlike clairaudience, which is based on auditory perception, clairvoyance focuses on the visual. This ability can arise spontaneously or be developed through practices such as meditation and guided visualization. Clairvoyants often describe their experiences as “seeing” with the mind’s eye, gaining information that is not available through physical senses.
Clairvoyance and Channeling
Clairvoyance and channeling are closely related, as both abilities allow access to information from non-physical sources. Channeling is the process by which a person allows a spiritual entity to communicate through them, using abilities like clairvoyance to receive and transmit visual messages.
In the series Channeling: A Bridge to the Beyond, available on Gaia, the complexities of being a channel and how clairvoyance is used in this process are explored. Experts in the series explain how the visions perceived through clairvoyance can provide guidance and wisdom, helping practitioners connect more deeply with the spiritual world.
Types of Clairvoyance
Clairvoyance manifests in various forms, each providing different types of information and visual experiences. Understanding the different types of clairvoyance can help identify and develop the specific ability each individual possesses.
Spiritual Clairvoyance
Spiritual clairvoyance is the ability to see spiritual entities such as guides, angels, and deceased loved ones. This type of clairvoyance allows for a direct connection with the spiritual world, facilitating communication and the understanding of spiritual messages.
Aura Clairvoyance
Aura clairvoyance is the ability to see the energy field that surrounds people, known as the aura. This type of clairvoyance provides information about a person’s emotional, mental, and physical state by observing the colors and patterns in their aura.
Precognitive Clairvoyance
Precognitive clairvoyance is the ability to see events or situations that have not yet occurred. This form of clairvoyance allows a person to receive information about the future through spontaneous visions or during meditative states.
Retrocognitive Clairvoyance
Retrocognitive clairvoyance is the ability to see events from the past. Through this ability, clairvoyants can receive information about situations or experiences that have already happened, offering a unique perspective on the past and helping to solve mysteries or better understand personal or collective history.
Remote Clairvoyance
Remote clairvoyance, also known as remote viewing, is the ability to see people, places, or events that are at a great distance from the clairvoyant. This ability allows one to see or experience situations that are beyond normal physical or visual reach.
How to Develop Clairvoyance
Developing clairvoyance requires patience and regular practice. Techniques such as meditation, guided visualization, and conscious breathing are essential to open your third eye and strengthen your psychic visual abilities.
Meditation to Open Clairvoyance
Meditation is fundamental to developing clairvoyance. Find a quiet place and sit in a comfortable position. Close your eyes and take several deep breaths to relax. Focus your attention on the third eye area, located on your forehead between your eyebrows.
Visualize a bright light in this area, expanding with each inhalation. Keep this image in your mind as you continue breathing deeply. This practice helps activate and open the third eye, facilitating the reception of visions and clairvoyant perceptions.
Guided Visualization Practice
Guided visualization is a powerful technique to strengthen clairvoyance. Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Imagine a calm and safe place, such as a garden or a mountain. Visualize every detail of this place: the colors, textures, sounds, and smells.
Allow yourself to explore this space with all your senses, noticing any image or symbol that appears. Practicing guided visualization regularly enhances your ability to see with the mind’s eye and improves your capacity to receive clairvoyant images.
Conscious Breathing Techniques
Conscious breathing is another useful technique to develop clairvoyance. Sit in a comfortable position and close your eyes. Inhale deeply through your nose, filling your lungs completely, and exhale slowly through your mouth. Focus on your breath, feeling the air enter and leave your body.
As you relax, visualize your breath carrying energy to your third eye, activating it and clearing any blockage. Practicing conscious breathing regularly helps calm the mind and facilitates the opening of your clairvoyant abilities.
Can Everyone Develop Clairvoyance?
Developing clairvoyance is possible for the majority of people, as long as they are willing to dedicate time and effort to its practice. Although some individuals may have a natural predisposition toward psychic abilities, many can cultivate this ability through consistent practice and an open mind.
It is important to remember that progress may vary from person to person. Some may notice progress quickly, while others may need more time and patience. The key lies in persistence and trusting the process, allowing the abilities to develop naturally.
In the series Open Minds, available on Gaia, various techniques and experiences of people who have developed their psychic abilities, including clairvoyance, are explored. In the sixth season, Regina Meredith interviews Mariana Cooper, a psychic who explains that we all have latent psychic talents and details different ways to open our intuitive senses.
Benefits of Clairvoyance in Spiritual Growth
Clairvoyance offers numerous benefits for spiritual growth, allowing individuals to connect more deeply with their intuition and the universe. This ability can transform the way spiritual experiences are perceived and understood, providing guidance, clarity, and comfort on the spiritual path.
- Spiritual Guidance: Clairvoyance allows one to receive visions and messages from spiritual guides, helping to make informed decisions aligned with one’s life purpose.
- Connection with the Higher Self: It facilitates the connection with the higher self, offering a deeper understanding of oneself and one’s life purpose.
- Emotional Healing: Clairvoyant images can offer solutions and comfort, helping to heal traumas and emotional wounds from the past.
- Clarity and Focus: It helps focus energy on spiritual goals and objectives, providing a clear vision of the path ahead.
- Energetic Protection: It allows one to anticipate and avoid negative situations, offering an extra layer of energetic protection.
- Development of Intuition: It strengthens overall intuition, enhancing the ability to perceive and understand subtle signs in everyday life.
Differences Between Clairvoyance and Other Psychic Abilities
Clairvoyance is distinguished from other psychic abilities by its focus on the visual perception of spiritual information. While other abilities may involve different senses or forms of perception, clairvoyance centers on seeing images, symbols, and scenes that provide valuable information.
- Clairaudience: Involves hearing sounds or voices that are not audible to the normal human ear. It is based on auditory rather than visual perception.
- Clairsentience: Consists of feeling or sensing physical or emotional sensations in a psychic way. It is related to sensory and emotional perception.
- Claircognizance: Is the intuitive knowledge of information without knowing how it was acquired. Unlike clairvoyance, it does not involve visual images but rather an immediate understanding.
- Telepathy: The ability to communicate mind to mind without using the five traditional senses. It involves the direct transmission of thoughts instead of visions or images.
