Hello JMG, in the previous Magic Monday you wrote that quoting , "The term "Second Sight" covers a lot of ground. Some families with the Sight have hereditary clairvoyance like the sort that Butler discusses, some have less visual gifts, some have a simple intuitive awareness -- they might know, for example, when a family member has died, without having any idea how they know." And oh Gods, I had a giant zonk XD I always thought second sight was a matter of physically seeing ghosts!
It's less of a question and more of data for statistics. I come from Poland (eastern part) and I have to admit that this kind of abilities here are quite common, the last years of materialism tried quite hard to reduce these abilities in people but I can confidently say that a really large number of people here have this kind of , "powers" spiritual. This really raises a lot of questions about the possible affinity between the Slavs and Celts (considering also the very similar nature and the gigantic amount of population that has mixed over the centuries). I don't know if you know, but probably in the 16th and 17th centuries Poland was called the second mother of the Scots!

Anyway. Have a wonderful magical Monday!
