Norway's Princess Martha Louise says she has psychic powers and can teach people to communicate with angels.
The 35-year-old daughter of King Harald and Queen Sonja made the announcement on a website promoting her plans for a new alternative therapy centre.
She says she realised as a child that she could read people's inner feelings, while her experiences with horses had helped her make contact with angels.


Norwegian Princess Martha Louise announced on Tuesday that she is clairvoyant and wants to help people by teaching them how to talk to angels.
The 35-year-old trained physical therapist and daughter of King Harald and Queen Sonja said on a website for her alternative education centre that she has been communicating with angels since childhood.
The Astarte Education centre which she co-founded promises to teach students to "create miracles" in their lives "with angels and with your own force".
"I've always been interested in alternative forms of treatment," she said.
"It was while I dealt with horses that I first got in touch with angels. I later came to understand the value of this enormous gift and would like to share it with others."
The Royal Palace confirmed that the website accurately reflected the Princess's views but declined further comment.
Martha Louise's younger brother, Crown Prince Haakon is next in line for the Norwegian throne.
The alternative centre's three-year programme costs 24,000 Norwegian crowns ($4000) a year.
"When you are an authorized health professional ... there are certain demands," Hanssen said. "The more she advertises that she's a physiotherapist, the more careful she needs to be."
Inge Lonning, a Conservative Party politician, said the princess' courses involving angels ultimately will collide with Christian beliefs.
Lonning, a theology professor, said the princess' Web site resembles a type of religion -- "faith in your own powers" -- that was in Norway before Christianity was introduced.
"In my opinion that can't be combined with Christian faith," Lonning told Aftenposten.
The newspaper VG said a survey showed four of 10 Norwegians agree with the princess that humans can have supernatural powers and it's possible to communicate with angels.
