What is a Psychic?

A psychic is someone who has a special ability to see into the past, present, and future. They can also sense spirits and other energies that surround a person or object. They can give advice and guidance to others using their heightened intuition. A psychic may also be able to see auras, the magnetic fields around people that reflect their emotional and rational components.

While anyone can have psychic abilities, some people are more naturally gifted at it than others. If you’re considering seeking out a psychic, it’s important to keep a healthy amount of skepticism and do your homework. It’s always best to find a psychic through word of mouth or through a reputable source online. It’s also a good idea to prepare for your session ahead of time by writing down some questions and clearing your energy.

There are many signs that you may be psychic, such as a gut instinct, feeling empathy with strangers, being able to tell when people are lying, and sensing the emotions of those who have passed away. It’s also possible to become more psychic if you engage in regular or intense meditation, as these practices cultivate awareness beyond the ego and the crown chakra (ajna chakra). Some people experience a mystical awakening after experiencing a significant life change or trauma such as the death of a loved one. Psychics sometimes use tools such as tarot cards, coffee grounds, tea leaves, crystals, astrology, or scrying to help them pinpoint information and convey their intuitive messages.
