Understanding The Types Of Psychic Abilities:
In the swirl of misconceptions, misunderstandings, and general confusion
surrounding the fields of parapsychology and psychic activity, most people
have no idea how to make distinctions between different types of psychic
abilities.
Wait a minute, you say, I didn’t even know there were different types! You’re in the same boat as most everyone else who has a basic understanding of psychic reading and activity. Little does the general public know, it’s not all tarot cards and psychic phone reading, there are sharply defined distinctions between everything from the obvious (tarot reading and telepathy) to the surprising (clairaudience, clairsentience, and clairvoyance). First, let’s discuss what defines psychic ability in the first place!
Extra-sensory
perception (ESP), prophecies of the future, and a sixth sense could all be
defined under the blanket term psychic ability. But where does psychic ability
come from? Actually, no one really knows, not even psychic readers. People
who claim to have psychic abilities describe a sense of just having it without
having any conception of how it got there. Most say that it is part of their
regular consciousness, and that they simply know or feel things before, during,
or after they happen despite being unable to explain how. Though
parapsychology has been heavily criticized, scrutinized, and stigmatized, the
truth is that as much evidence points towards its veracity as against it.
So what are some of the different types of psychic abilities?
To begin with, there is the art of channeling, which is defined as the ability to receive and transmit information from another external consciousness while in a decidedly altered state of mind. Though each incident varies in intensity and resulting activity, many share the same basic traits: a semi-trance-like state and the appearance of an outer entity expressing itself through the channeler. Many people have been able to obtain a psychic reading of another entity and consciously channel that entity but professional parapsychologists don’t recommend trying it until you’ve been well-trained and prepared.
Three more (related) types of psychic ability are clairaudience, clairsentience, and clairvoyance.
Clairaudience is generally defined as the ability to hear or sense sounds that cannot be perceived by a non-psychic person.
Clairsentience is another type of extrasensory perception in that clairsentient people can sense past, present, or future events through sensing them, though non-clairsentient people cannot perceive them.
Clairvoyance is a synonym for
extrasensory perception of any knowledge or consciousness of an event
outside of seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, or smelling it.
Divination is another often-misunderstood type of psychic ability. Divination is the act of making prophecies or predictions through the practice of occult arts. Contrary to popular belief, this is different from intuition which is defined as the ability to perceive or act based on just knowing that it’s the right thing to do. Tarot Cards and tarot reading is a form of divination. Although the mainstream ideas of divination and intuition have been tweaked to seem like anyone can tap into this psychic energy field and wield it consistently well, the truth is that it takes time, effort and dedication to the fields to hone and develop their extrasensory perception skills in a truly powerful way. NOTE: Not every "Reader" is equal in terms of accurate divination.
What’s the difference between psychometry and psychokinesis?
Well, psychometry is defined as the ability to glean information about an object by obtaining physical contact with the object. Good examples of this are seen in countless movies. Envision it: The hero touches a book and, upon contact, is filled with images of its previous user and the fate that befell him or her.
Psychokinesis is the ability to move objects through willing it or thinking it.
