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 four 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 Four: Creating Dangerously — The Strange Liberty of the Clairvoyant
“To create today is to create dangerously. Any publication is an act, and that act exposes one to the passions of an age that forgives nothing… The question… is how, among the police forces of so many ideologies, the strange liberty of creation is possible.”
Camus delivered this warning in 1957, addressing writers living under political censorship. But his insight extends far beyond literature. It reaches into the heart of every intuitive and mystic living today.
To create from your Spirit—to see clearly, to speak truthfully, to heal cleanly, to live consciously—is dangerous. Not because it harms, but because it cannot be controlled.
The clairvoyant, like the artist, becomes a living contradiction: a free being in a world built on pressure.
The “Police Forces of Ideology” in the Modern Psychic World
Camus warned of ideological pressure—church, state, culture. Today, mystics face additional forces:
Spiritual dogma masquerading as universal truth.
Lineage-based hierarchies that demand obedience.
Culty psychic schools that suppress autonomy.
New Age absolutism claiming the “one right method.”
Identity-based spiritual expectation, dictating who you can be.
Social media performance, where spirituality becomes branding.
These are the forces that quietly police your inner world.
At Art of the Seer Academy, we teach you how to break those inner chains—not by rebellion for rebellion’s sake, but by rooting into your own sovereignty.
Your clairvoyance belongs to you.
Your mediumship belongs to you.
Your relationship with Spirit belongs to you.
You do not outsource your sight.
You do not rent out your intuition.
You do not hand your sovereignty to any teacher—and certainly not to me.
This is the freedom Camus called the “strange liberty of creation.”
To See Clearly in a Noisy Age Is to Create Dangerously
A mystic creates, even when they think they’re only witnessing. Every time you:
read an energy picture,
clear your field,
choose neutrality,
decline an old pattern,
speak a truth whispered by Spirit,
refuse to collapse into collective panic,
or heal yourself with compassion instead of coercion—
…you are creating a new reality.
Camus argued that creation is always an act against corruption, illusion, and fear. The clairvoyant creates not by painting or writing (though sometimes that too), but by shifting the inner architecture of their consciousness.
You bring clarity where culture builds fog.
You bring neutrality where society demands polarity.
You bring sovereignty where systems reward obedience.
This is the “dangerous” part of your practice: your freedom disrupts the machinery of the age.
The Academy’s Tools for Creating Dangerously (and Safely)
Spiritual freedom without grounding becomes chaos—something Camus himself recognized. That’s why the Academy’s curriculum is built on:
energetic boundaries and separation techniques,
seniority training,
center-of-head clairvoyant awareness,
running earth and cosmic energy,
the ethics of mediumship,
the neutral witness state,
body-of-light expansion practices,
non-hierarchical intuitive development,
and the reclamation of personal cosmology.
These practices give you the structure to handle the freedom. They help you become a person whose inner clarity cannot be colonized by ideology—spiritual or worldly.
Camus suggested that rebellion must be rooted in limits to avoid becoming its own tyranny. Energetic training provides those limits. With them, you can create fearlessly without losing yourself.
Why Your Freedom Matters in This Era
Every time you choose:
clarity over confusion,
intuition over fear,
neutrality over chaos,
sovereignty over hierarchy,
presence over performance—
…you become the kind of person Camus was writing about: someone whose very existence is an act of resistance.
The mystic doesn’t rebel loudly.
They rebel by remaining awake in a world addicted to distraction.
The clairvoyant doesn’t rebel through ideology.
They rebel by refusing to surrender their consciousness.
The medium doesn’t rebel through influence.
They rebel by remaining honest in the face of the unseen.
This is the strange liberty of our craft: your presence is the creation. Your clarity is the rebellion. Your Spirit is the liberation.
