The Intuitive Career: Historical Perspectives

Description

Throughout human history every culture and era has defined roles for individuals with intuitive and healing abilities. This practical, dynamic course will explore careers which use these skills from the most ancient times through the 20th Century. Many of these ancient careers are still vital in the 21st Century; perhaps with slight modifications for contemporary culture. Biographies of famous intuitives and healers will be discussed in detail in order to define three general approaches to their work: the oracular method, the reader method, and the consultant method. This course will closely examine the views, opinions, and expectations concerning practitioners in these fields which may be held by individuals in our modern society.
