I was originally going to name this 'I think I'm psychic.' But, I think everyone is psychic to a certain extent. But, I think my abilities have increased 1000 fold since my mother passed away in May. I can't explain it. I want to talk to some professionals about it. Who can I go to for testing or whatever?
Unfortunately there is not yet any state-licensed Board of Psychic Examiners, at least none I've ever heard of. LOL However I've had lots of psychic experiences most of my life, and there are plenty of other folks haunting this forum who have also, and we would be happy to hear your "proofs." If only it were that simple...then again, thank God it's not that simple...you can't explain it? Welcome to the psychic world! But Chuck, let's just think about some things. Were you close to your mother?
I loved her dearly, she knew that. She was a awesome person. Raised 5 of us by herself. I regret I didn't spend more time with her when she was alive though.
And being as how we're all psychics here with supernatural beliefs, let's assume that now that she's "passed on," she also knows that you regret not spending more time with her. Did she ever express any beliefs in psychic or supernatural phenomena, or did she have any psychic talents that you were aware of?
Oh yes, she believed in the supernatural. I don't recall her talking about her powers any though. She talked about being born with a vial over your face as meaning you had psychic powers too. She wasn't born this way though. She believed in curses. I remember her telling me her grandfather was once cursed by an aunt of her's that when he would drink milk (which he loved) it would turn sour and curdle. She said it did everytime and it wasn't releived until someone removed the curse. Had another psychic incident today. I was in class and we were getting ready to go over how a financial calculator works. I showed the girl next to me how to figure payments on a loan. The example I used was a $50,000 mortgage for 30 years at 6% just to show her how it was done. After I showed her, I got up and went to the bathroom. When I returned, the instructor (without even knowing I used these figures) was finishing showing the class how to figure this using $50,000/30 years @ 6% just like I did. This is freaking me out big time.
Freaking you out, huh? I'd better not tell you about my experiences, you'd run screaming from the room. In fact, one woman I met did just about that when she found out what my life is like... As far as your mom goes, it sounds like she believed in the supernatural, all righty. Nothing dramatic though. Still, it could be...especially with your aunt apparenty having some powers of some sort--nasty thing to do to your grandfather, though. I wonder what he did that made her think he deserved that. Anyway it's a bit inconclusive, but I didn't expect much else. Let's just say that it sounds like your mom's spirit has finagled some psychic abilities for you. Why? Hard to say. Maybe she wants to talk to you? And she can only do that if you're sensitized to hear her... What do YOU think of the psychic stuff? You talk about being freaked out--is that your normal response, or are you just being dramatic for effect? Do you LIKE being psychic? What do you think you'd like to do with these abilities? Inquiring minds want to know.
It's just weird is all. I've had things like this happen all along through my life, here and there but nothing like this. I've always believed in psychic abilities. If it is psychic abilities, I would like to learn how to read them to know what the mean to me and others. Mine seem to not have any meaning at all. What would I want to do with these abilities? I would like to do good.
Hi chuck, My gift intensified after my grandad passed and is growing stronger everyday, I think that when someone close to you passes they allow you to use their energy to help you and if you allow yourself to use that energy your gift grows stronger. I hope that makes sense?? Knowing what to do with your gift is down to you, I have helped someone find something they thought they had lost. (I also use it to annoy my husband when he has annoyed me lol like spoiling the end of a film or program) but ive learnt not to ignore it and not get frustrated with it. Take it slow and learn to use it the way you feel comfortable with it. I hope ive helped?
Yes, I have watched movies and known what is going to happen next or what an actor is going to say next.
"To do good" is great, but not very specific. Think about what kinds of things you would like to see yourself doing. This kind of thinking is empowering in two ways. For one, it gets you to try out different scenarios to see if any feel like "you." For another, when you find a scenario that resonates for you and siezes your desire, the mere act of imagining it will help bring it into your physical life. I've experienced this lots of times in my own life. If you'd like to get an idea of what an extremely gifted psychic does for the good of others, I recommend a book by Sonia Choquette called Your Heart's Desire. She wrote another one called The Psychic Pathway that is also good. And be patient. Having psychic ability doesn't necessarily mean there will be events with deep meaning every day. The fact that you're sensitized will make you aware when something more meaningful does happen. One night, my angels gave me the ability to know ahead of time when a solitaire hand I had started was going to be a winner or a loser. Apparently this was just for fun--the next day I couldn't do it anymore. But another time, for a while, every time I got on the commuter train I would start thinking about where the safest seat would be in case the train crashed into something. I kept feeling this way for a couple weeks, and then one day, the train I usually take did crash into a truck stalled on the tracks. I wasn't on it that day--I got up late and found out about the crash when I got to the station for the later train. And ever since then, I haven't cared which seat I sat in. So just hold on, enjoy the ride, and see where it takes you.
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I appreciate everything you've said. Is there an association or maybe a university research program I might be able to get involved in to help me? I'm going to find and read those books. I have The Secret book and dvd that are very good too.
Yes, I have The Secret dvd. It's based on the same principles as the Choquette book I suggested. So you have a very good idea already of the direction I'm pointing out to you. I'm not sure what kind of association or university research program you're thinking of, or what kind of help you're looking for from them. However I will tell you that university research programs will most likely not help you. University research programs are about science, which is about years-long, repetitive tests to help researchers test their hypotheses. It isn't about using your abilities for good, unless your vision of doing good consists of subjecting yourself to tests. And furthermore, the tests will probably disappoint you--cuz that's really not what the psychic abilities are about. Live, and do what intrigues you most--that's when the abilities take on meaning. I took a couple of Reiki classes a few years back, and though I decided that Reiki was not my path, I had a couple of amazing experiences in that class, and met some amazing people. You might consider something like that. Check around where you live, or do some Google searches--that's how I found this forum, and probably how you found it, too, wasn't it?
LOL, actually, I was looking for an adult forum. I was on another forum and there were too many 'kids' there. I picked up both of those books today at barnes & noble. I look forward to reading them.
Update, things are still happening to me as before. I think I'm going to start writing them down and keep track on a daily basis. A few things. I was talking to someone in the office about one of my clients. I told her I was waiting for the client to call. Before we finished our conversation, she called. I went to my mother's home (my brother lives there now). I was talking to him and decided to call my other brother who lives a few houses away. I never do this. He never calls either. When I dialed his number, the line was busy the first time. When I got through, he said he was trying to call me. I think I need to look at my auto-suggestion abilities. What do you think?
