Understanding Different Psychic Abilities
To help you better understand the different types of psychic powers, here are some of the most common psychic practices and how they are used.
Astral projection
The ability to will your consciousness out of your body. This is a voluntary experience, not the same as an out of body experience, which is typically involuntary. Astral projection is achieved through meditation and allows your astral body or your “soul”, to travel places your physical body cannot.
Clairvoyance
The ability to see things beyond the physical realm, and it also includes seeing into the past and future. Unlike other psychics, clairvoyants have the unique ability to see spirits or ghosts and communicate with them. They can also tell someone’s fortune by looking into the future.
Divination
The practice of gathering evidence from the spiritual world to interpret the physical world. Some divination practices involve tarot cards, tea leaves, crystal balls, Ouija boards, pendulums, dowsing, scrying, bibliomancy, and the use of other tools to translate messages from the ethereal world.
Mediumship
Also called ‘channeling’, is the ability to communicate directly with spirits. Psychics with this ability essentially act as a “medium” to relay messages from the spiritual world to the living.
Psychometry
Psychic power where an individual can experience visions or emotions related to a place or object just by touching it. Also called token-object reading, the psychic will usually hold an object in their hands, such as a photograph or clothing, in order to summon information about the object.
Telekinesis
One of the most fictionalized forms of psychic power, telekinesis is the ability to move objects in the physical world with your mind. This type of psychic power is extremely rare.
Telepathy
A type of psychic power that allows mind-to-mind communication. There are varying degrees of telepathy, but in powerful cases, the psychic can communicate clear and complete thoughts in just a blink of an eye.
