How to Become a Psychic

A psychic is a person who can use their extrasensory perception to tap into the energy of people, animals, places and things. This information, sometimes referred to as “intuition,” can be used to make decisions or give guidance. Psychics can also use their gifts to connect with the universe’s energy, enhancing emotional and spiritual well-being, reducing stress and fostering personal growth.

Psychics can read the energetic field that surrounds a person, called an aura. This is one of several psychic modalities that are sometimes grouped under the umbrella term “clairvoyance.” Other clairvoyant abilities include clairaudience (hearing), clairsentience (feeling) and claircognizance (knowledge). Some psychics can also access the Akashic Records, a vast fifth-dimensional database of souls’ choices in past lives, through clairvoyance or claircognizance.

Some people develop their psychic skills through a variety of techniques, including meditation, tarot card reading and other spiritual practices. Practicing and perfecting these methods helps build confidence, which is necessary to effectively use psychic intuition. Other psychics report that they were born with natural intuitive abilities. Others become psychics by accident, often becoming the trusted friend that knows everyone’s innermost feelings and problems.

If you want to hone your psychic abilities, focus on clear intentions and keep an open mind. Negative thoughts hinder psychic ability, so learn to dispel skepticism and believe in yourself. Before using psychic energy, imagine lighting a white candle in your mind and inviting your Spirit Guides in for support. This visualization is a way to turn on your psychic powers and is particularly useful for beginners.
