(Madisyn Taylor)
Because our bodies exude energy, we leave behind a vibrational imprint each time we touch or live in close proximity to an object. These imprints, which may be positive or negative memories, emotions, or impressions, can become part of the history of an item. Like you, the objects you encounter have stories to tell. Psychometry is the natural art of reading an object's history in regard to the people and events it has encountered. The objects we associate with are by no means silent bystanders. A house in which a tragedy has occurred may feel cold or silent, while handling a much-loved toy may make you feel good. It is widely believed that all human beings possess psychometric abilities. All objects vibrate at specific frequencies, and psychometry asks only that one tune in to those frequencies.
It is common to learn the art of psychometry by using items such as jewellery or a watch, because these objects spend much of their time in close physical proximity to its owners. Information sensed using psychometry usually has to do with an object's owner and may be related to a location, a feeling, or an event. Emotions tend to be easier to sense, though it can take time and diligence to perfect your psychometric talents.
To exercise your psychometric skills, relax and sit in a quiet place with your palms facing upward. Have a friend place one of their treasured possessions in your nondominant hand. Let your mind wander until you receive any impressions. Finally, relate what you have seen, heard, or felt.
By simply holding an object in your hand … you can sense an object's past and vicariously experience the emotions, sounds, tastes, scents, or images that have transpired around it thus far. While psychometry is most often performed on small objects intimately connected to its owners, it is possible for humans to leave an imprint on a large object like a home or automobile and to receive impressions from these objects. Once you know an object's story, you can release it of its memories or marvel at the wealth of information cradled within.
My Thoughts:
This kind of thing fascinates me.
I am sure we have all been in situations where we just do not feel comfortable in a place, but cannot explain why and know that there is no real reason for feeling that way.
I get feelings about places a lot.
Sometimes the spiritual connection is to be expected, like at stone circles, graveyards, places of worship, buildings that have a history of death attached to them and places that lend themselves naturally to the supernatural (dark woods, crypts, battle fields etc.).
Then I find myself experiencing goose bumps at the most unlikely spots. Maybe, unbeknown to me something sinister has occurred eons ago, maybe I will never be able to find out, but what I do know is that there are certain locations and buildings that I have done my best to avoid.
There are also places that I cannot wait to go back to …
Castle Hill, Huddersfield is a scheduled ancient monument in West Yorkshire. The Victoria Tower is perched 106 feet on the summit and was built to commemorate the 60 years reign of Queen Victoria over the British Empire (1897). It has a very calm, tranquil aura about it and on climbing the steps to the top open platform the views across the surrounding countryside are breath taking. I find it haunting in a positive way, the weight of history of the surrounding site is evident, especially if you just close your eyes and listen.

Another place that has an eerie pull for me is Kingarth Standing Stones, on the Isle of Bute. There are contrasting reviews of the site from spooky, dark and sombre to captivating. I found the clearing strange with a dark atmosphere, if not a little overpowering, especially when touching the three stones in the ring. The timelessness of this place really intrigues me, I would love to be there for sunset on mid-summer’s day or the winter solstice.
