Every age believes itself to be the most turbulent, but ours is uniquely electric—digital overwhelm, collective grief, spiritual hunger, ecological instability, and a pace of life faster than the psyche was built to bear.
Welcome to part one of this series. These essays explore what it means to live, create, perceive, and stay spiritually sovereign in an era that overwhelms even the most grounded among us. Each piece integrates Camus’s philosophy with the clairvoyant and mediumship curriculum at Art of the Seer Academy, offering a resonant path for modern mystics.
Part One: Living in an “Interesting Era” — What It Means to Be a Mystic Now
“An Oriental wise man always used to ask the divinity… to spare him from living in an interesting era… The divinity has not spared us and we are living in an interesting era.”
Every age believes itself to be the most turbulent, but ours is uniquely electric—digital overwhelm, collective grief, spiritual hunger, ecological instability, and a pace of life faster than the psyche was built to bear.
Camus’s wry observation is a gentle reminder: we were not spared this era. And for mystics and sensitives, this isn’t just a philosophical condition—it’s an energetic one.
At Art of the Seer Academy, we see this play out daily. Students arrive overstimulated, under-grounded, full of intuition but lacking stability, carrying the subtle pressure of a world that never stops moving.
This is why clairvoyant training is not an escape. It’s a stabilizing force.
Why Clairvoyance Matters in a Time Like This
Clairvoyant meditation asks you to do something revolutionary in an overstimulated era:
slow down enough to notice your own consciousness.
Our foundational curriculum begins with:
Grounding — discharging the unprocessed noise of the era from your energy field.
Center of Head — reclaiming your seniority from collective anxiety.
Aura Maintenance — separating from the emotional weather patterns of the world.
Neutrality — refusing to participate in the age of outrage.
These are not spiritual flourishes. These are survival tools.
Camus wrote in The Myth of Sisyphus that true clarity comes from “living without appeal”—refusing to collapse into illusion. Clairvoyance teaches that same clarity: seeing what is, without panic or performance.
Mystics Are Built for Interesting Eras
Mystics aren’t here to be numb. They’re here to be awake.
To notice what is shifting beneath the obvious.
To witness the collective fear without absorbing it.
To walk through the world with awareness instead of urgency.
This era is loud—but your Spirit is steady.
This era is chaotic—but your consciousness is sovereign.
Clairvoyant training reconnects you to the part of you the era cannot touch.
Remaining clear in a time built on confusion is the first act of spiritual rebellion.
