Master Hypnosis Trainers Training

Count Alessandro di Cagliostro’s biography is shrouded in mystery. As far as it is known today, this was an assumed name for Giuseppe Balsamo (2 June 1743 – 26 August 1795), so we’re dealing with two names allegedly being the same person,or not! One was the “hypnotist” – although this is technically incorrect since the term hypnosis was not coined just yet – it will have to wait until James Braid and the middle of the 19^th century – and the other was the “alchemist”. Nevertheless, there is no certainty about these two being one and the same person. Giuseppe Balsamo’s biography tells us that he was born and raised in Palermo in Sicily in one of Palermo’s most Arab quarters once called Al-Gadida (currently Albergheria). His family was quite poor yet his grandfather and his uncles made sure that he received a solid education. During his period as a novice in the Catholic Order of St. John of God, he learned chemistry as well as a series of spiritual rites

The mystique and mystery associated with Cagliostro survive until today. The numerous opinions associated with his name range from the “Quack of quacks” as quoted by Joe Nickell, to possessing incredible powers and being capable of making people do his bid only with his eyes. He also attempted to (and to a certain degree succeeded) in creating hi secret society. Of course opinions range according to people’s beliefs – however his “powers” are what we call today non-verbal hypnotic induction. We understand the process by which trance is induced and therefore (unfortunately for those who’d still like to believe in magic) the mystique is taken away.

According to the Skeptical Inquirer , in the Investigative Files Volume 19.1, March 2009, the author, Joe Nickell

writes:

“As the most versatile of all impostors, Cagliostro was by turns alchemist, forger of documents, prestidigitator, quack-salver, spirit conjurer, and procurer” (Francesco 1939, 209, 211), and that is only the short list.”

In spite of all the strange cluster of “qualities”, his life and activities have provided inspiration and fascination [pun intended] for many other artists, writers and film makers. No less than 38 works of art mentioning or inspired by Cagliostro from the 18^th century until the present time are listed by Wikipedia. Here are only a few of them:

Count Alessandro di Cagliostro Induction

By Francesco Pellegatta

Well now we close with the last induction and we go back in time, before hypnosis was called hypnosis,

At that time hypnosis was called fascination, and Count Alessandro di Cagliostro was an Italian man. He was born in 1743 and there are different theories about him,. Many people said that he was the occultist Giuseppe Balsamo others said that Cagliostro and Balsamo were two different people,

The thing that made me love Cagliostro is that when I took the Hypnosis Trainers Training I was a demo subject for a presentation and that presentation was a non-verbal Cagliostro induction.

Another thing that we should know about Cagliostro is that he was arrested because he tried to create his own masonic order, I don’t want to talk too much about him because I want show you the magic of Cagliostro or better the Fascination of Cagliostro,.

Before I ask who wants to be the demo subject let me explain to you the best thing about this induction, I don’t even need to talk I just need eye contact, many people at that time were saying that Cagliostro has magical eyes and that he could control people just by watching them,.

Ok no more talking,.. now it is time to ask who would like to try the “Cagliostro’s eyes”,
