Psychic abilities can be awakened at almost any time in life. The emergence of these abilities can come as a surprise, and can be quite confusing for those experiencing the changes. Oftentimes, these abilities are repressed and ignored because it’s something people don’t understand, or don’t want to deal with. But psychic ability is just another type of intelligence, and it should be nurtured. Even if you don’t have psychic abilities yourself, understanding more about them will help you to trust in another power and open yourself up to psychic ability in the future. Here are six of the most popular psychic abilities and their explanations.
Clairvoyance
This is a very well known ability that many psychics have. Clairvoyance describes a psychic’s ability to see images or visual scenes and take something from those visual messages. This kind of sight is beyond actual physical sight, and the images are often presented to the psychic in a symbolic manner.
Clairaudience
This is similar to clairvoyance in that the psychic receives messages that do not exist in a physical sense. But rather than images, clairaudience allows the psychic to receive the messages audibly.
Clairsentience
This is also in the same vein as clairvoyance and clairaudience, but has to do with feeling or sensing rather than seeing or hearing. With clairsentience, a psychic will be able to sense things in the past or in the future, and will have a very good sense of intuition. Their “gut feelings” lead their psychic abilities.
Empathy
Yes, empathy is something most of us develop naturally, but an empath feels it a little more strongly. An empath is able to enter a person’s aura and really experience what that person is feeling. They have a sensitivity to other people’s experiences that is beyond the norm, which can help them to understand others. This is a popular psychic ability that many people just never take the time to nurture.
Telepathy
This ability is similar to empathy, but goes further. With the ability of telepathy, a person will be able to communicate with another person, and see, hear, or feel what they are experiencing. This ability is common between twins, but some psychics are able to connect with many other people through telepathy. This is another ability that could be much more common if it was acknowledged and nurtured.
Mediumship
This is a well-known psychic ability, mainly due to its prevalence in popular culture. A medium is a type of psychic who is able to connect with spirits. This connection with the dead helps many people to deal with the death of loved ones. Mediums don’t necessarily have to physically channel the spirit to connect, but channeling is a well-known form of mediumship.
Many people who have psychic abilities have overlapping abilities, which makes categorizing them a little tricky. Whether you’re just looking to understand more about psychics, or you’re experiencing some changes yourself, knowing more about these abilities will help you to be a more open person in general.
