Psychics are aware of things one cannot perceive through the five physical senses of sight, hearing, touch, taste or smell. They are said to have a "sixth sense" which is often called "extra sensory perception" (ESP) or just "intuition". There are several types of psychic "sensings" similar to seeing, hearing and feeling.
Clairvoyance is the ability to "see" images in one's mind that are not visible to the naked eye, and may sometimes be scenes from the future or the past. Some clairvoyants may see the colors of "auras", the energy patterns surrounding people's bodies

Psychic Ability

Psychic ability has been called metaphysics, ESP (extrasensory perception), prophecy, the sixth sense and psi (a Greek letter which equates to the mind and the unknown) ability.

Parapsychology is a recognized field of science. Parapsychologists are scientists that study the paranormal, which includes psychic ability. There are very few valid, accredited parapsychologists in the world today. Their research concludes that people with psychic ability do exist, however, to date no concrete scientific measurement of this ability is available. In the past the scientific community has focused on the physical level of psychic ability. Today the shift of science is going beyond the physical level to encompass Einstein's"Unified Field", which is the search for the essence of consciousness.

Where does psychic ability comes from?

No one knows the ultimate power of the human mind today. Being psychic from the age of eight, my experience suggests the following theory. Evidence suggests that we only use about 10% of our brain. The brain is divided into two parts. The left logical side, which produces rational thought, and the right, creative side where imagination and intuition reside. Most of our time is spent in the left logical mode. When we balance the left and right sides of the brain, it opens up a pathway to the 90% part of the brain that we don't use. It is in this part of the brain where psychic ability and the ability to self-heal exists.

Psychic ability is different from intuitive ability. Intuition is a state of consciousness in which everyone has the ability to tap into. It is also the start of psychic ability development. Men perceive it as hunches and everyone has probably heard of woman's intuition. Prolonged use, trust, and discernment of intuition leads to psychic ability. It is usually takes a long, arduous process of development and growth, on a total mind-body-spirit level, to understand and use it correctly and wisely.

so, being psychic from the age of eight...what kind of abilities is it that you have?

Are you planning to do any readings for those in this area asking about it?

Hello my name is sabhel and I was woundering if anyone could give me some ideas what kind of sounds would you hear through clairaudience?

I was also woundering if your suppose to hear any sounds through meditation for I did once and it scared me for it sounded like a loud whistle kinda and I opened my eyes immediatly and sat up because the noise startled me it was so loud? Has anyone ever heard of this happening before?

Thank you for your time,
Sabhel

Sabhel -- I've heard the sound of a door shutting. This occurred around 1 a.m. when I felt my departed grandfather's presence. I had felt for months and months that he was still "sticking" to me, or his spirit was still around me. This can be draining, by the way; then again, he may have been trying to help me...... Anyway, I spoke out loud, "May his soul rest in peace," and whoooosh....SLAM! a "door" to another world closed, ostensibly as his spirit passed on. It startled me!
Has anyone felt that a spirit was "stuck" to them?
P.S. I'm in the midwest, too -- ohio
