Praise for this book
“This is a breakthrough book--and timely so, because the cutting-edges of quantum physics and advancing brain wave research are finding themselves increasingly entangled with serious implications that paranormal stuff probably does exist and is probably innately and normally interactive with the fundamental essences of all life forms.”
“Psychic Intuition gives the most compelling explanation of why humans have the ability to read each other's minds and see the future. This groundbreaking book will help skeptics and believers alike begin to understand this field that historically has been shrouded in taboo, mystery, and distrust.”
“as though psychic skills are forbidden genies that must be hidden in the proverbial closet. Psychic Intuition opens the door to that closet. Nancy du Tertre backs up her ideas with well-researched answers to age-old questions and inspires us all to go deeper into this amazing subject.”

📖 Why choose it

Nancy du Tertre’s background as a former skeptic provides a safe entry point for those intimidated by overly mystical jargon. If you desire practical, grounded advice on cultivating inner knowing without losing your rational mind, this guide offers exactly that.

⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Du Tertre’s approach is refreshingly pragmatic, stripping away esoteric pretension to focus on usable techniques for developing intuition. However, readers seeking rigorous academic study or deep historical occult theory will find this text lacking in scholarly depth. It is not suited for those who prefer complex metaphysical systems or traditional ceremonial magic frameworks. Instead, it serves best as a gentle primer for beginners who need reassurance and clear, step-by-step guidance to explore their psychic potential without feeling overwhelmed by the complexities of the occult world.
