This is a bogus article. Everyone can see elves, and psychic powers are not needed.But most of us have too much in the way.

What we call extraordinary perceptions are very ordinary, and natural energy exists all around us. Its not a matter of ESP, but it is a matter of understanding rather ancient ideas about how nature works, and internalizing them with a sense of genuine longing.

If you go to Japan, you will find little kami shrines all over the place. Japanese folks see kami every day. How come westerners cannot?

We are victims of two principles , causality, and scientific method, in Western culture. The fact is that we each create our own individual realities, and share conventions about it.

In Scotland you will find people who meet elves and talk to them every day.And they say they look like ordinary people, like you or I.In Japan it is the same with kami.

I have learned not to ridicule such people.Their world simply is far richer than mine is, and I cannot share it peceptually.

I’ll stick with muggle magic, ie. technology. Course it helps that I’m already a wizard in that field.

So what's to say they aren't ordinary people?
