Identifying Your Psychic Abilities
© 2015 GypsyJaguar
In order to figure out what your natural psychic abilities are you must pay attention to your own instincts, senses and experiences and keep a record of them over time. This will help you to notice what areas your abilities seem to be focusing on, how accurate you may be, as well as how you are progressing over time.
Some people have a particular ability that is more pronounced, but it is not unusual to find that you have a mixture of many abilities. These abilities are as natural as our own survival instincts. They have just been ignored over time or disregarded as silly or insignificant. There is no reason why we can't retrain ourselves to start paying attention to our natural senses again.
If you often guess what others are about to say, have a good sense of what a person is all about as soon as you meet them, tend to know information you haven't been previously exposed to, frequently say the right thing at the right time, or your hunches have been often validated, you may have strong intuition (claircognizance).
Guessing what others are about to say is common of telepathy, as well. If you generally finish other people's sentences, end up saying the same thing at the same time as someone else, or often think of someone right before they visit or call, you are most likely using your telepathic abilities.
If you often seem to take on other people's emotions, can sense how others are feeling, are easily affected by the moods of others, have trouble controlling your own emotions, feel exhausted around highly emotional individuals, places or situations, are deeply affected by music, can strongly experience feelings through other people's stories or while watching movies you may naturally be tuned into your empathic (clairsentient) abilities.
If you tend to visualize what people are saying to you, can easily form a picture in your mind while focusing on an idea, often daydream in vivid images, or have a photographic memory, you may have natural visionary abilities like clairvoyance, and may be quite adept at trance work and scrying.
If you have vivid dreams, frequent dreams you seem to be in control of, dreams that have come to pass in waking life, daydreams filled with symbols, information, or images of people or events you do not recognize or that are from another time period, you may also have visionary abilities related to clairvoyance and dreamwalking.
Visual abilities that are more linked to mediumship would be experiencing daydreams, dreams or visions of individuals you do not recognize or that are from a different time period. Sometimes these can be visions linked with past lives. After recording your experiences over time, you will be able to discern if these are images from your own past lives or someone else's. If you have dreams or visions where it seems like a person is trying to communicate with you this may be a guide trying to connect with you or a spirit needing help.
If you have ever experienced a sensation like you were not quite yourself or that someone else was taking over control of your thoughts, body or speech you may have the ability to channel spirits.
If you often dream about visiting other people or places, regularly dream of conversations, wake up in your own bed confused about where you are, wake up with a sensation that you were falling, have many dreams about flying, or wake up feeling exhausted as if you were previously physically active, you may be astral traveling. This is also referred to as an out-of-body experience.
If you tend to experience random tastes without a physical origin, or seem to have an unusually strong sense of taste you may have clairgustus abilities.
If you regularly smell aromas which do not seem to have a physical origin, or have an exceedingly strong sense of smell, you may have clairaroma abilities.
If you often hear songs and music in your mind, hear random talking or conversations, get ideas or thoughts that do not seem your own, hear buzzing or rhythmic sounds you may be experiencing a form of clairaudience.
As with all of these abilities, make sure that these are not caused by a medical condition before you start reacting to any of the information you receive. Some ailments can cause some of these abilities to manifest in a negative way. For those who may be ill it is important to realize that harmful entities can take advantage of an unprepared opening of the psychic senses. Spiritual protection and medical care is of most importance.
Learn as much as you can about your potential abilities before you begin to experiment with them. Read lots of books, take some reputable classes and talk to experienced practitioners. Ask a lot of questions. Be sure you know what you're getting yourself into and that you are emotionally, mentally and spiritually prepared to deal with it.
There ARE dangers to experimenting with and opening yourself up to spirit communication. The spirit world is filled not just with benevolent entities like angels, guides and passed loved-ones, but with malevolent ones as well. There are many entities out there who thrive on attaching themselves, tricking and causing harm to inexperienced and unsuspecting people. Be prepared and protect yourself.
