Is it possible to be psychic and if it is how do you know?

Question

I have been watching Discovery and they have shows about psychics and I am just curious.

Answer 1

If you ARE psychic, wouldn't you simply *know*...? Seriously, some people are in their intuition much more than they are in their five senses. Maybe they are also quite emotional and highly attuned to the emotions of others. A combination of these traits will give them a "psychic-like" personality -- they will seem to know things about people and events in a way that surprises others. But if they make claims such as they are able to communicate with the dead, well that's just silly.

Answer 2

First, everyone is not psychic, however everyone has a sixth sense about certain situations it's called intuition. And yes a psychic person just knows. and not all abilities are the same, some sense spirits and energy, some and discern the future through signs and symbols, some see auras, the list goes on and on. My dear Dad once told me "it's the spirit of discernment" a gift from god to help see things and help people. A real psychic will never ask for money to help those in need, they will just help regardless. They know from a young age that they are different, and often don't know why until they are older. However adults around the young know also that their child can do something special. Hope this answers your question, if not go ahead and e-mail me for more. :)

Answer 3

EVERYONE is psychic. And the lottery comment is ridiculous.

We each have a pathg that we are on in this lifetime and for some, it is to experience wealth and for others, poverty or modest income.

People who are open to their psychic ability are sheilded from information about themselves, otherwise they would NEVER get out of bed knowing what was coming at them that day. Their work is to assist others who need a point of view different then what they can see.

How do you know is they are psychic, go see one. Have a reading and tape record it and be patient enough to keep it for at least a year to see if anything they said came true.

Answer 4

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. If so, it would have been scientifically proven by now. It is a scam to take money from gullible and/or emotionally upset people.
For the last 40 years the JREF (James Randi Educational Foundation) has offered prize money (now up to $1,000,000) to ANYONE who could prove ANY psychic ability (including ALL the ones listed by people on this page) under testable conditions (they couldn't cheat). To date, no a single person has succeeded.

The cash would just be the start. They would win a Nobel prize and become world famous. So you know people have tried (about 1000 or so). 40 years of total failure is pretty convincing.

Answer 5

Clairaudience, Clairvoyance, Clairsentience



In life we are all different therefore we will all perceive or be sensitive to energy differently and there are four ways to interpret an incoming thought, pattern or energy. Most of us will perceive primarily by one and partially by the other three.

Clairaudience - Intuitive
This is a person who will pick up a thought and hear it. This persons mental or intellectual understanding is very important and they can make good leaders. We all know someone that we would say was a mental person, always having to understand mentally. They carefully think things through. If this person were to become enlightened they would have the ability to become a medium, someone who channels information from entities who have passed over, because their most heightened sensitivity is to hear.

Clairvoyance- Visionary
This is a person who will pick up a thought and see it. This person has the ability to transform a thought into a vision, symbol or in colour by using their mind's eye. If an artist, a decorator, a creative person, someone who mainly uses the right side of their brain were to become enlightened they would have the ability to read auras, our chakras, draw guides and this is how they would channel what they received because the ability to see images is their most heightened sensitivity.

Clairsentience - Prophetic (1)
This is a person who will pick up a thought and just knows it. This person is sensitive to precognition and has hunches, dreams and knowings and this person usually deals with the future or present and how it will affect another. If you were to meet an enlightened Prophetic you would be able to get some information about your 'line of probability', tomorrow is not set in time remember. This could be a person who has a dream about something and that dream turns out to happen in reality. They have the ability of prediction because they 'just know' and can tune into and understand their hunches.

Clairsentience - Feeler (2)
This is a person who will pick up a thought and transform it immediately into a feeling. This persons life can revolve around how it feels to them. Their sense of touch is well-developed and they have the ability to know people by feeling what they feel. After enlightenment, this is someone would have the ability to practice psychometry. The ability to put something belonging to someone in their hand and read the energy. Depending on their other gifts, they could tell the past, present or future from the energy. They have the ability to feel how others feel but only on the emotional level. They will be able to not only empathise but experience their pain, loss, grief etc. For instance, if they were to channel energy from a persons past life they would experience the pain and hurt that that soul experienced in that past lifetime.

Answer 6

Yes it is .Some are more psychic than others and a person can learn to be psychic if they so choose.Talk to a person who specalizes in the stuff but be wary there are alot of phonies out there waiting to take your money.Peace

Answer 7

there are people that have a "gift" that appears to make the psychic, but it might also be a case of where that person with the gift has a special sensitivity to various situations.

if the psychic were really that, then they should know which numbers are going to be pulled in tonights Mega Lotto and they could win the $150,000,000. But as you and I both know, they really don't know the future.

Answer 8

how would you know, hun..
well, can you pick up on what may be going on in another persons life, for instance, without any/or very much information concerning that person, other than that, which you know to be true in your heart and mind (third eye intuition)..... most people are intuitive, but some people can really pick up on, and are very sensitive to others.......can read their energy........their past, present, and future energy.................
I am an intuitive holistic guide, I am not a stock market supervisor or numbers reader........I am thinking this is just not that important, in the scheme of things......who knows for sure...
