What are Psychic Abilities

What are psychic abilities? Simply put, it is the ability to perceive, receive, or transfer energy and thought without the physical use of your 5 basic senses. Some call these abilities gifts and others call them curses. I suppose it’s all in the way you discovered them, how much control you have over them, and in how people treat you in regards to them.

Everybody has some psychic aptitude, because we are spiritual beings after all. Some people come into this world wired a little differently, some people are born psychically active. Some people live in a world where they perceive much more than the average person and they must learn to live in two worlds simultaneously so to speak. I am one of those people and I choose to view it as a gift.

While it’s no longer the 1600s and society at large is becoming more and more accepting of things they don’t understand, there still is a lot of prejudice against what is not “normal”. There doesn’t have to be and it doesn’t have to frighten people any more. In today’s age of advanced scientific inquiry psychic abilities have been proven to be a very real thing and not just the makings of legends and ghost stories to scare children.

My point is this, if you are one of these gifted people you shouldn’t be afraid. You should be open and honest with who you are. You don’t need to hide in the shadows any longer. There are many great things that can be accomplished with your life and your gifts. The curse is turned into a gift by learning to control it.

Many others don’t even realize they have active psychic abilities. They chalk it up to coincidence, strange occurrences, and then put it quickly out of their minds. Below I’ve listed some of the more common psychic abilities for you to review and see if anything seems familiar to you.

This list in no way encompasses all psychic abilities just the most common ones. If you feel you have a psychic ability then you most likely do. If it scares you then you need to deal with the fear first. Once dealt with, then you need to learn as much about your ability as you can so you can harness it and use it for your ultimate good. Psychic gifts that are uncontrolled can wreak havoc on a life but it doesn’t have to be that way. Psychically active people have an expanded awareness of situations, places, and people which enables them to use that insight to navigate through life differently than the average person, and at a much bigger advantage if used properly.

Sometimes taking control of your life is discovering who you really are and being ok with it.

Love, light, and blessing.
