What Psychic Ability Is and Is Not: Signs You’re Psychic

A Word About Psychic Ability and Intuition

The steps we take on life’s journey are fraught with ups and downs, misconceptions and falsehoods, unexpected realizations and unprecedented understandings. Life is learning. Even our ability to observe firsthand events correctly is impacted by the inability of our brains to record more than five specific facts at one time. The other facts—rightly or wrongly remembered—are filtered out of our recollection. Our observations are also influenced by our worldview and past influences, not actual facts. The realm of psychic and otherworldly happenings, like our observations, can’t be definitively defined. But in spite of that, the world of psychic phenomena has thousands of followers, and the people who believe in an active, unseen world practice its teachings.

What we do know about this area of life is that such belief structures are part of our culture. The world of active spirituality, of psychic seeing, mediumship, and other psychic modalities, is growing. Just as many people are interested in religious principles and inspirations, many are interested in the mysterious realm of the supernatural. In the past, people thought something was wrong with anyone who thought about psychic or spiritual matters. Now people are curious. They are in the midst of reconsidering any information they’ve learned about the universe and the world of the unseen. There is a new wave of investigation into such things as intuition, hunches, instinct, unusual awareness, and the possibility of a sixth sense.

Insightful Perspectives About Intuition & Psychic Functioning

Malcolm Gladwell, in his book Blink: The Power of Thinking without Thinking takes a long, hard look at the power and presence of the seldom-understood phenomenon we call intuition. We can’t conclusively explain intuition, but researchers like Gladwell have taken a stab at it. His argument suggests our mental processes work quickly and automatically, using an overabundance of information acquired over a lifetime. He puts forth a theory that expert judgment and instantaneous decisions are often accurate without the benefit of extensive knowledge. He also looks into factors that prevent us from using our intuition knowingly and investigates the influences that appear to destroy this mechanism of human intuition.

Others also believe intuition is the result of a lifetime of experiences—an exposure to information residing in our subconscious until the accumulation of that information can be used. These people believe our minds have the ability to archive all types of information we don’t log in on a conscious level. They believe we pick up information subconsciously, never really comprehending it—body language, tone of voice, a particular look, or something out of place—and this is the root of intuition.

To others, however, intuition is a knowing or sensing that comes from within because we are a part of a universal mind, and it comes without the benefit of rational explanation. They believe intuition is an unnamed something that operates beneath our layers of logic, something that works as our conscious and unconscious minds communicate in unexpected ways, an unconscious reasoning that propels us to do things without telling us why or how. In the book Steve Jobs, by Walter Isaacson, Jobs, an inventor and pioneer of the computer revolution, called intuition, “more powerful than intellect.” Intuition, for both camps, is the sum of our intellectual ability, acquired knowledge, past experiences, and sensory perceptions. For some, it also includes psychic input.

What Psychic Ability Is and Is Not

Instinct

Instinct is an internally driven, fixed pattern of behavior exhibited in animals in response to a specific stimulus. It is an inborn impulse, a motivation to action. Salmon swim upstream and fight strong river currents in response to a compulsion to return to their birthplaces and spawn a new generation. Salmon do this in response to instinct, not intuition. Intuition is an experience unique to humans.

Mental Sensories

Intuition not only uses our mental senses to inform us, but it also uses our bodies to send us unique messages. You may have heard it said, “He makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.” That is intuition using your physical body to signal something may be wrong or needs your attention. It may be telling you the person or situation in question is unsafe. Intuition might be a tingle, a feeling in your stomach, or an unsettling emotion. It is intuition sending you a message.

Science or Spiritual?

To people like Gladwell, intuition and foreknowledge are scientific in nature. To those who believe in otherworldly existences, it is spiritual. While it may seem incompatible to forge a link between the common, everyday experiences of intuition and the trained and developed powers of a psychic, psychics tell us intuition is the foundation upon which psychic abilities are built.

A Worthy Compass

Regardless of where the truth lies on this issue, our culture actively encourages us to rely on rational judgment as the only true expression of reality. We know, however, that purely rational assessments aren’t always accurate. We have all experienced instances where emotional input has aided in the discovery of a truth or the reality of an event or situation. Intuition is a worthwhile guide for evaluating situations and informing decisions. It has the ability to take us to unexpected destinations without the benefit of logic.

Signs You’re Intuitive or Psychic

If you have ever had a gut feeling that turned out to be true or had a sudden impulse to do or not do something but later discovered you should have listened, you were using the intuitive insights with which we are all endowed. Given that intuition lives in the realm of the unexplained, you may be able to conclude (in a broad sense) that you already have the foundation for acquiring psychic abilities. All individuals are born with a tendency toward a psychic mind, whether they know it or not or believe it or not. Psychic abilities are an integral and important part of intuition. Here are some very specific indications you may be psychic:

  • Pay particular attention to their inner voices and listen to its urgings
  • Pay attention to their bodies and are not afraid to be mystical
  • May feel the illnesses, aching, pains or physical symptoms of others when near them
  • Are inspired to support those who they see as being intimidated, bullied or who are suffering
  • Make time for solitude and take advantage of opportunities to contemplate the mysteries of existence
  • Cherish creativity and put time into feeding that creativity
  • May experience ear ringing or odd unexplained body sensations
  • Rules and regimen are stifling to them and freedom is essential
  • Control of any kind is met with great resistance
  • Strict regime, procedure and guidelines can be a challenge
  • Awaken at the 2 am hour feeling restless, anxious or ready to get up
  • Crowded or loud, busy places are overwhelming
  • Psychic ability is in the family and/or generational
  • A natural affinity and connection with animals
  • Find themselves rooting for the losing team or the underdog in a situation
  • Observe everything around them and attempt to make sense of what they see
  • Pay attention to their dreams, have vivid dreams and understand truth can be found in the spirit world as well as the physical world

It is quite possible for individuals to make the conscious decision to develop, rekindle, or magnify the powers of their intuitive voices, their psychic minds. The path to the supernatural world of the psychic begins by expanding and fine-tuning intuition and then paying close attention to the seen and unseen worlds that surround us. Wayne Dyer, internationally renowned author and speaker on the topics of self-development and spiritual growth, like many in his field, believes current scientific investigation around the mysteries of matter and energy proves it is quite possible there is more beyond what our logical minds can consider.

No Surprise, Our Planet is Onboard the Psychic Train

For many, religion is the answer to universal truth and a connection with supreme intelligence. Current statistics report a majority of Americans believe angels and demons are active in the world. Eighty percent believe miracles happen, and 92 percent believe in God. To others, cultivating and establishing psychic abilities will aid in a search for the power of a universal mind and a universal spirit that unifies us all.

The acquisition of psychic abilities is not simply the pursuit of a psychic mind. It is more about embarking on a journey of self-discovery to awaken an innate desire to understand the universe and the unseen world. It is not a question of being more intuitive than anyone else, and it is not a question of being endowed with more psychic abilities than anyone else. It is only about you and whether or not you want to engage in an exploration of the spirit realm or acquire psychic abilities by becoming familiar with the practices of the psychic world.

    Hello Michelle,
    My name is Esther and I am very interested in advancing my physic abilities! I will be buying your book also. I have helped many spirits pass on. I don’t always see them with my eyes, just in my mind. Also can you teach me how to see auras? I have had mine read several times. From the top of my head it starts with Pink, above that, yellow then above that, white. White is the biggest of all. Can you tell me what these colors mean please? I also have had quite a few premonitions , mostly bad or tragic ones.
    Thank You so very much for your time. I’m very blessed you came into my life.
    Hugs,
    Esther Moretz

    • Hello Esther!

      Thank you for your comments. I think you’ll find these articles very helpful:

      Five Steps to Swiftly Tap Into Your Psychic Power of Seeing Auras
      How to Read Your Energy Color

      The colors of auras have different meanings, as do the shades of the colors. Meaning, dark pink vs. light pink have different meanings. So, do be mindful. The color pink generally means kind hearted energy/person; white is connected to purity and highly spiritual people; and yellow correlates to the physical body and its energy source often called chi. Also keep in mind that each color can also be connected to the person or what’s happening in their life – past, present or future. So, lots of things to consider in discerning the color and its meaning. I’m delighted you’re following, learning and developing your psychic ability! Do let me know if I can help in any other way.

      Warmly, Michelle

  • Abigail Billings says:

    Hi Michelle!
    I cant tell if I am Phyisic or not but I have been waking up at almost 2am every morning and at night when I am sleeping. I have mixed dreams in one. Some of it I remember and the other half I dont. Some of the dreams I have are just to real.

    Abigail

    • Hi Abigail! It’s sure good hear from you. Thank you for taking the time to comment. You are indeed psychic, as we all are. It is now a matter of cultivating it so it becomes stronger and clear. Dreams are one of the first ways of discerning psychic messages and ability. As a start you might peruse this article on how to discern a precognitive dream providing psychic information about the future. Do keep in touch and be sure to join our newsletter!

        -ruth

        • Hi Ruth! Thank you so much for sharing! This is wonderful hear. Our dreams are so insightful, so do listen. First things first: please consider keeping a dream journal. Write down the first impressions/recalls that come to mind as you wake. Most important to is to pay attention to the ‘feeling’ of the dream. Also, be sure to visit my podcast via the link below. There is a wonderful dream series that will get you well on your way to understanding your dreams and also using them to guide you in daily life. Btw, it’s very common that the meaning of a dream comes several days or even weeks later. As you develop a r/ship with your dreams however, the understanding begins to come sooner. Good luck and do keep in touch! Warmly, Michelle https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-intuitive-hour-awaken-your-inner-voice/id1080382371 OR https://theintuitivehour.podbean.com/

  • Serena Berndt says:

    Hallo Michelle…I have been having dreams of things that eventually happens to me or others. It started when I was a teenagers and as I get older I started to get visions about people I haven’t met yet and eventually not more than a month or 2 later I meet them. the dreams are short but have detail in them that I won’t have ways to know about.
    One time I had a vision of a car accident my family and I were going to get involved in and 3 minutes later it happened.
    I feel extremely attracted by some people and come to find out I had dreamed about members of their family.
    I feel uneasy weeks before something traumatic happens to me or around me.
    I have never seen a post but I sense the presence of something in building and I had to leave rooms before because of the feeling I was having.

  • Haylee S says:

    I haven’t figured out if I’m a psychic or not, but, my moms a psychic and it has always interested me as well as her. But what I was going to say originally is: I sometimes will get a random chill while I’m in my room, or I’ll feel like there’s someone here with me, but I’m too scared to focus on anything but my safety when I feel that way. Other times I will see a quick shadow and it will suddenly disappear once I look over at it. I’m not quite sure what this means but I thought I would take the time and share!

  • Stacey Neubert says:

    Hi there Michelle.. well for years now I’ve had so many experiences with empathy I feel like I absorb people’s feelings and sometimes it makes me depressed to where I need to be alone for a little while , I’ve had several weird encounters with people and many people open up to me way too much I’ve had the severe gut intuitions That I’ve followed only to bring me out of harms way I’ve actually seen a ghost like figure of a man very quickly standing in front of me and within seconds he was gone it didn’t scare me but all this has really been frustrating and has me freaked out sometimes it has me questioning my own sanity But I do believe in ones Psychic ability I just really need to know where to go from here .. Thank you -Stacey

  • Teddy says:

    Hi, I’ve always felt like I could feel or see this things others cannot, I cant tell if I’m a psychic or just imagining things but I can see this when I close my eyes and when my eyes are open in a pitch black room, others emotions deeply effect me and I’ve always had dreams and or nightmares about things or emotions that could happen in the next day to a year, i have no idea if I am a psychic and if I am I would have to practice alot more.

  • Levi Willett says:

    My name is levi, I have all those things and much more…. it’s scary sometimes. People dont believe me so I dont talk about it. but after they get to no me it almost scares them as well. I don’t t no what I am sometimes as weird as it sounds. My friends tell me to get out of their head, but I’m not doing anything to get in it. Idk, I guess I’m lost looking for answers myself… take care

  • Chrissy says:

    Hi. When my mother was pregnant with me, a psychic told her that I would have psychic abilities. I’m now in my mid-40’s, and I’m still not sure. I always have extremely vivid dreams but have a difficult time remembering most of them. But I can still remember some that I had when I was a small child. I always feel like someone or something is next to me – whether I’m sitting at work, taking a shower, watching tv, everywhere. I have a ringing in my ears most of the time, but the doctors have said my hearing is perfect. I always feel like I can hear “conversations” and “music” when I’m in a quiet room, usually at night. I constantly feel like I’m being touched, but nothing is there. I have no idea where to begin to research any of this, or if I’m just imagining things. Please help! Thank you so much!!!

  • Lori says:

    I dont know if I’m psychic or not but ever since I was a little kid I would talk to spirits and I foreseen things before they would happen. My mother was the same way and our church told her that it was of the devil so as I got older I tried to push it away. I got drunk alot. Now my youngest child has “imaginary” friends and she’s came to me and asked me if I ever dream about people that I don’t know and then meet them in real life. If I am psychic, how do I tap I to it and how do I explain this to my 8 year old daughter?

  • Tanya says:

    Hello,

    I have spoken to two different psychics whom both states i have psychic in me. One of the psychic said “wow, you can see things before it happened, wow” that one shocked me because I didnt know i could do that. The second told me “You have a gift, you should be a psychic”. I have been paying close attention to my dreams.

    There is a guy missing and has been since last year. No one knows anything about me. I dont know him personally nor have i ever spoken to him. I dreamed of him 2 nights again. He came to my job and brought me spaghetti with a roll or something to lunch. He was holding two or three full trashbag like as if he was taking out the trash. When he looked at me he seemed nervous moved quickly and walked out the door with the trashbags,

  • Amy Simpson says:

    Hi, ive been wondering whether I have psychic abilities or whether things are just a coincidence. Ive had minor things in the past such as ringing my sister to get mascara from a shop and it turns out she was at that shop looking at them . Last year my daughter was going on a school trip and I had a feeling something was going to happen to the school transport…..I got a call later on from the school saying they had a problem with their bus so would I give permission for a taxi All of my family and friends were healthy in November 2019 but I told people I was dreading new year as a close family member was going to die, everyone said i was daft but xmas day 2019 my grandma got took to hospital with a broken knee and died 1 week ago with a bleeding ulcer. Some things I vision do not come true so im not sure whether its just all anxiety? Since my grandma died last week ive recieved a few signs, I feel like she has strong energy. Its hard to work out if i have abilitys or just overthink.

    • Hi Amy! You want to be sure to quiet your mind and be in neutrality as you are in a psychic space. There are some foundational tools you want to be sure you have in place in order to receive accurate psychic information. Right now, I’m sending out a Foundational Psychic Development Series via my newsletter. Do be sure to sign up at MichelleBeltran.com. If you’ll email me directly, I’m happy to send you the past two newsletters on Grounding and Neutrality! Warmly, Michelle

  • Jenna says:

    Hi! I’ve recently become very interested in psychic abilities and mediums and things like that—however, unfortunately, I’m not sure if I am a psychic or not—and I’m not sure if I even have abilities. I don’t know anyone in my family who has psychic abilities, but on my dads side, they are very connected with nature, and have great inner focus (not sure if those are psychic things).
    However, one time, my family was leaving a place early in the morning. I was tired, so I tried to sleep for the long drive home, but I got a strong urge to take a different route home. Not 5 minutes later, we got into a car crash (not a serious one, thankfully).
    I’ve had other experiences like this, although that was my most notable one. One other thing is, that while I’m not sure if a loud ringing in my ear is tinnitus or a spirits voice from the other side, but it comes to me when I’m feeling lonely or sad. It’s very interesting, and I wonder what it is…
    If you have any tips for how I can find out for sure whether I have abilities or not—and if I do, how to develop them.
    Thanks,
    Jenna

  • Sam says:

    Hi, I have been getting frequent premonitions in my dreams and my thoughts just recently as well as noticing very frequent synchronization. For years I have had dreams premonitions as well as very good intuition however ever since I saw a trusted psychic just before Christmas last year the premonitions are happening almost daily. I have always experience weird glitches with my electrical devices and ever since seeing a medium the electrical glitches have increased and I seem to now be affecting other people’s electronics. As well as this, I have seen unexplainable shadows, a huge bright orb in my old bedroom, I have had weird ear ringing ever since I was a young child even though my hearing is fine, I would often hear faint muffled voices even though nobody was talking, I have had stuff disappear and occasionally reappear without any explanation, I have constant deja vu and as a child growing up I would lucid dream naturally. I empathetic and always have been. Unfortunately, I have been through multiple bereavements at the young age of 23 and I noticed my premonitions getting more frequent after each bereavement. Do you think I am psychic judging by what I am saying?

  • Hannah says:

    Hi, I read this whole article and it explained a lot of things to me or at least made unexplainable things make more since. I personally, and very deeply related to this article. I’ve always thought I was just crazy and my experiences were just me overthinking everything. I’ve always had the dreams but I have trouble remembering them but a lot of the time they always seem to be related to things in my life I couldn’t possibly have known about. I’ve always felt other people’s emotions without even knowing them or talking to them but I thought I was just sensitive or something. I’ve always felt like there was some kind of “spirit” around me, especially since I’ve lost people where important to me. Lately, without the intention, I somehow already know what about to happen or what’s going to be said or who someone is, even. Could I psychic or something? Do you think I am or might be or might have the capability to be? I’d love to grow in this. Please help !
    Thanks

  • Arianna Arroyo says:

    Hi, I am very confused that I may have a psychic ability and what the names of my abilities are in general. I spoke to a psychic and they told me to look into reiki more and that I can heal people with my hands and how I’m an empath for sure. The thing I’m unsure about is if I’m psychic or not and if theres any other ability titles out there that I should know that I am. Every time I read an article I just feel as though it never really answers my question as far as me knowing for sure what the abilities I have are (the titles) I always have feelings that random things will happen and once they do happen, I end up being right. I can read someone very easily, even a person I’ve never met before or when a person passes by me I can pick up their energies and what kind of person they are. I get feelings if the person is a good person or a bad person and usually when my gut is telling me to stay away, I stay away and then later on find out something about that person that was bad. I feel also that I can tell the future before things even happen. I can feel others emotions as if their my own, psychical pain, mental, anything they feel I feel as my own. Basically what I really want to know is what the titles for my abilities are. Am I psychic and would there be any other abilities that I’m unsure about that I have?

  • Katie says:

    Hello! I’m katie and I was recently told by a psychic that I am also a psychic. When I mentioned that another psychic told me I was a little psychic one time, she disagreed and said that I am “extremely psychic”. She said I should be able to feel and see spirits, as well as be able to see the owner of an object by touching it, talk to my spirit (she described it as a guardian angel), and have premonitions. She also told me that i’m already experiencing the premonitions, just in my dreams. She gave me some starting points, such as meditating and writing down my dreams, but i’m not sure how to actually pursue this. She was right about all the things I was experiencing, such as dreaming in color, dreaming through other people’s eyes, hearing the ringing in my ears, and feeling as if there are spirits around me, but i genuinely don’t know where to start or how I know that I’m doing it right. Id love to hear what you have to say!

  • Shantel Crutcher says:

    Hello! I’m very puzzled and I’m getting a little scared about something strange that has been happening to me. On about 3 occasions, I would think about death and start crying out of nowhere. It would just come to mind that I would go crazy and start to cry when I think of something happening to one of my kids or family members. Either the same day or next day I would be informed that someone I know personally or just know of in some way passed away around the time that I cried when death crossed my mind. What could this possibly mean?

  • Surbhi says:

    Hi! I just read these signs and i almost possess them all . All the astrologers that i have met have told me one way or the other that i can see things and i can even connect with spirits. But i just want to know why? Ever since i was a kid, i could talk to spirits in my dreams and they keep asking for my help . In fact, i once had a random dream as a kid saying that i was born to help people but i want to know why and i want to control it my self. It scares me at times a lot. Hope you reply.

  • Michelle Lynn Decarli says:

    Hello Michelle!!!
    So blessed to come across this!! I am a clairvoyant, claircognizant, and clairaudience psychic. Since i was a young girl i felt spirits around me. I had a NDE at the age of 17. At that point I saw the light/ the tunnel of light but it wasn’t my time. I have became so unified with the universe I have predicted many of my friends either having babies, what their child would look like, their upcoming situation in the months to come and many other situations that became true. I also connect to spirits that pass over. They give me little messages that I would not know. I practice tarot card reading also. I have a true gift from what I’ve been told by friends. Can you tell me how I can use my gift to help others on a wider spectrum? I believe it is my true souls Destiny to help heal others around the world. It is a passion of mine and I am looking into how I can do this at bigger conventions. Are you able to help me? Thank you!!

    • Hi Michelle! It’s sure good to hear from you. Yes, I’m delighted to help and the extent of which is beyond this note. That said, do get started with journaling as your gift of guidance will be on a broad perspective ahead and largely in print/publishing. Warmly, Michelle

  • Cam'ryen Mitchell-Marr says:

    Hi Michelle! I don’t know if I’m psychic or not. But sometimes I hear voices in my head telling things. I also had dreams about traumatic experiences in my life. I always wake up about some where between 1 and 3 am. I had many dreams about my friends and some have came true. I always know when my friends are upset or happy.

  • Destiny Taylor says:

    Hello! My name is Destiny, and I recently just turned 15. I see myself as unique in my family. I stand out in a lot of ways. But, I have this feeling I could be psychic. Like yesterday, I got this text while my phone was off and I was sleeping. I woke up because I felt that somebody needed me. So I checked my phone, and i was right. I also feel drawn to cemeteries. I’ve always wanted to talk and connect with spirits because they could be lonely and I feel for them. I really like Halloween and just creepy things in general. I don’t know… I’m just confused and scared 🙁

  • Nwachukwu Samuel says:

    Hello! My name is Samuel, and am 19 years old. I dojt know if am psychic but I have this voices and sensations. I can feel peoples pain, and like take peoples pain or sickness most times. And I wake up by 2am in the morning and its like I have been experiencing time loop. What I mean is that when I close my eyes I have this dream and then i wake up and then its like am living for that day but when things go wrong I still return to that exact time( 2am) in the morning. It’s like taking time back. And everything for that day, just happen like I have lived it before.I can read minds. See future and vibe to see peoples past….Am confused and scared

  • Lindsey says:

    Hi Michelle,

    I’ve had a dream about a bad situation with particular people and when I woke up, I had a gut feeling that something was going to happen but I wasn’t sure when. And later that day, a similar situation happened involving the same people in my dream. It was really crazy for me to believe. Then just recently, an old friend had cut me off of their life and I somehow accepted that – 2 weeks had passed and I never thought of the person and before they decided to call me yesterday, I had a dream of them. It seems to me that I dream of things a day before it happens in real life. Is it just a coincidence? Am I looking at it too closely? I just want to know if this is a possibility that I’m psychic. Also, I think I’m clairsentient because I deeply feel others when they’re sad.

    Hi, sometimes, if I get real mad maybe sad somethings will be moved without even being touched. I would wake up at 2 I almost constantly have ringing in my ears and ill always have a numbing sensation and pain mostly in my arms and legs and my fingers will get numb.

  • Lindsey T says:

    I have had quite a few strange experiences in my life and not really sure what to think. When I was very young (less than 10) my mom, sister, and I were playing. When I went to stand up I blinked and saw a car crash. I explained it to my mom and she was in shock as she told me it was a crash she’d been in way before I was born. One night she was on her computer while I sat near talking to her. I stopped and asked if she heard the noise I heard and she said no. Right after, her phone rang. My sister is a year older than me (I’ll be 27 on 4/18) and when we were little, we had separate bedrooms that weren’t close to each other. We weren’t allowed to have our tvs on at bedtime but I could always tell when she had hers on. It’s like I could hear/feel it like white noise or static electricity. Now we live together and the other day I was laying in bed and had a similar sensation. I somehow knew she was home. I was upstairs and I called her and asked if she was home. She said she just walked in the door. Also, I had a song stuck in my head one day that I hadn’t heard in years. The next day I was going through my social media’s “Memories” and 9 years ago, I had posted some lyrics to that same song. One of the creepiest things though, when I lived at my aunt’s for a couple of years, I’d hear voices. This is the only time and place this has happened. I would only hear them in that moment when you’re almost completely asleep. Kind of like that moment where you feel like you’re falling and you’re body jerks you awake.

  • Laynes says:

    Hi, I don’t know if I’m a physic or not. I’ve never had any visions or had dreams that came true. But I’ve always been interested in the paranormal and that kind of stuff. I feel like I can feel someone’s energy but it’s like a feeling and I’m not seeing any auras or that stuff. I ALWAYS wake up at 2:00 a.m or 3:00. It’s not like I just get uncomfortable and wake up, it’s like my body generally wakes up and I can’t fall asleep. I’ve always felt like I had a connection with the paranormal but I’ve never seen a ghost or heard one talking to me. I get ringing in my ear all the time and I can just tell if a person is near me. I’m also very uncomfortable being in crowds or big groups. So I don’t know. I want to be, but I’m not having anything that really indicates that I am.

    • Laynes says:

      Another weird thing I forgot to add, was that I’ve always counted backwards. So say I’d say that I was painting 3-2 things. Instead of saying 2-3 I’ve always said 3-2. My mother always thought that was weird and she doesn’t know why or how I’d start doing it. So I don’t know, she can’t explain that and I thought it may be something more?

      • Hi Laynes, Ear ringing is a classic clairaudience sign (once you’ve been sure to negate anything medical). You might find you resonate with this article on the topic: https://michellebeltran.com/tune-into-your-clairaudience/ Also, that 2 am time is a very heightened hour wherein we are most receptive. This is because it’s ‘quiet’ at this hour and the business of the ego and left brain data-filled world have waned to the extent our higher self can be reached and also receive on a deeper, intuitive/psychic level. Last, what you mention about your number reversal is called backward masking or reverse speech. It has been called the 7th sense. An expert on this topic is David John Oates. I encourage you to learn more about this. Warmly, Michelle

        • Laynes says:

          Thank you so much???? I’m quite shocked on the number reversal thing. I didn’t know if the whole 3 a.m thing had to do with something because I’m left handed? You said it had something to do with the right side of the brain… I don’t know, just wondering. Thank you so much for giving me some answers and advice.

  • Melvin says:

    Hi, I have been getting frequent premonitions in my dreams and my thoughts ramble about random people I’ve walked past or came in contact with. The vision in my thoughts is like I’m watching them live their life. I also daydream often to a point i question reality. Sometimes Déjà vu makes me look and seem crazy, because when interacting with people. I seems to know what they think, say and about to do. I’m noticing this happens about 3mintues before interaction. For years since i was a child I have had dreams as well as very good intuition. I have always experience weird Magnetic and electrical current tingling and sometimes when it starts, weird things happen to electronics around me, like a sort of Brief interferences. As well as this, I always seen unexplainable shadows, Random orbs at anytime of the day, random flashes of a person in my thoughts just looking standing over whoever I’m around. Being woken up at the same times consistently between 215-3. Sometimes it’s scary because when this happens, i feel people are in my room and i start seeing random colors throughout my room. ( i run to turn on the lights that the only way i can sleep) I have had weird random ear ringing ever since I was a young child even Been checked multiple times and things are fine. My mother believes it’s because we are part Native Americans. I often hear voices, some faint or muffled voices and normal volumes voices to a point I’m saying “huh”, “what did you say” to people next to me, even though nobody was talking, I have had stuff disappear and occasionally reappear without any explanation. There’s so much more but don’t want write a book. Do you think I am psychic judging by what I am saying? If so how to get a handle on it this gift. I have suppressed this too long.

  • Nancy says:

    Hello!
    My mother would always have vivid dreams about something and a few days later her dream would come true. For example, she had dreams of my older sister being pregnant and a few days later my sister told her she was! And this happened twice. She always has dreams with my father who has past and is always warning her for me and my sister to be careful. Usually when she has those dreams, me and my sister plan to go out, so we listen and stay home. As for me, I’m not sure if I’m psychic. It could be coincidental, I don’t know, but since I can remember when I was much younger till now, I will randomly think of something, it could be a few hours or days where what I think of happens. Also I’ve had dreams that were extremely vivid, and I felt the emotions in the dreams as well and I wouldn’t think too much of it. Few days later, those dreams would come true too. I also wake up every night between the time 1am-2am, and I always have this feeling to just look around the room and I can’t sleep till I feel safe. Recently, if I think of something completely random of a person, and I ask them about it they always say that I’m right. I’ve just always found it so strange that Emmy whole life I’ll think/dream of something and coincidently it comes true. Could I be overthinking?

  • Devon James says:

    Hi, Michele. I’ve not been able to find information or terminology for my experience. Interestingly, I have an identical twin so growing up we an a special connection and thought alike, answered any questions in unison , using all the same words and intonation, etc. This also resulted in needing only a couple seemingly no related words to communicate be sure we knew what the other was thinking. I was definitely the more empathetic one, however. As an adult, I still absorb other’s feelings and pain. Sparing the amazing “psychic” connections that twins are blessed with, I have one particular ability that must be close to 100% accurate. I don’t have a term for it, nor a very good understanding of it. In fact, I never gave it a thought because it was so normal to me that I didn’t see anything special about it until about 3 years ago. Here’s what happens: when I’m driving, particularly in the highway, I will suddenly become aware of a driver’s presence up ahead of me and at the same time they become aware of me too. The fascinating part is that before I even drive by them, I already know, without question, that they are going to quickly turn their head and look right at me with the exact look on their face that I pictured.
    What is this? Why am I suddenly aware of another person out of the blue? What is this called.
    Thank you for your reply,
    Devon
    t until a couple years ago when I told someone I was driving with to ” watch the driver in the green car up ahead” and they asked me how I knew that. I was struck by her asking me that.

  • Terry says:

    Hello Michelle,
    My name is Terry. My mother had premonitions throughout her life and many of them materialized. Most centered around tragic events; car accidents, deaths, etc. Now at the age of 68 I also find myself having premonitions from time to time.
    It all started a few years ago when I was struck by ‘transferred lightning’ when I inadvertently touched the metal molding on my car at the precise moment when lightning struck. I was thrown in the air and traumatized by the event. I went to the ER at the hospital and could see the outline of soft, almost neon colors around the shoulders and heads of medical personnel; colors of yellow, pinkish red, light blue, and light orange. I remarked this to nurses and they thought I was hallucinating from the lightning strike. But I know what I saw with my own two eyes. Since then, I have had several premonitions and some have proven to come to fruition.
    Recently I had another one – of the good kind!! It involves a cure for something, but I don’t know WHO I should contact for this. I know how people can be and I don’t want to be the object of ridicule, like so many others are. And sometimes in my dreams something – or someone – keeps saying “what are you waiting for….what are you waiting for??” I’m assuming that ‘entity’ is referring to the fact that I haven’t spoken to anyone about this premonition.
    If you have any ideas about WHO I should be talking to about this cure premonition, could you please let me know. I really need to confide in someone about this.

  • Grace says:

    hey Michelle i believe i am quite spiritual. Quite a bit the hairs on my arms will raise especially at night. i have had orbs come to me and have seen white flashes of light. i Get big gut feelings when not to do something, i can also sometimes sense when a spirit nearby and feel other peoples emotions. And quite a bit i’ll be in my room and everything will turn the color green especially this occurring at night. i have also connected with a love one who has passed away. I wanted to share this with u and see what u think 🙂

  • Jennifer A says:

    Hi Michelle, I have always wondered if I have psychic abilities. How would I know if I have a gift or if it is intuition or something else? Often, I feel very sensitive to people that I am close to. Almost like an empath. My closest friends say I have an ability because I usually call them when they are having a tough time etc and I would not have known it until I spoke to them. It is best described as clock work by my friends. Would love your input. Thanks.

  • Tiffani says:

    So out of curiosity, what your opinion on my friend: According to them, they can feel and see spirits (in real life and dreams) but they don’t control it like they can’t call on a spirit to come visit, only if it just shows up or happens to be there then this person will know, also they talk a lot about how they can feel energy like from other people/animals/even plants and they can use their own ‘energy’ to calm another person or heal a dying flower with their hands, or ‘wish’ for something and it happens, they’ve also seen visions of things before they happen (not in dreams but in real life) like this one time they were sitting in a car and suddenly saw a different scene through the windshield like a still photo that was so clear they could almost read the street signs in it.

  • Reena says:

    Hi, Michelle I took a course during this year and find out that I am intuitive and Psychic. I can view things and can communicate with decesed or present souls who wants to pass massage to love ones. . I always sense things ahead of the time and some event in past made me realized that I was seeing my day ahead of time. I thought I was day dreaming and ignored them. So now since I am in this journey I want to further develop my abilities. If I go with this class would it help me develop my ability further?

  • Nikki says:

    Hi Michelle!

    I honestly don’t know if I’m psychic or not but this been happening ever since I was young but recently I would see things in my dreams and when I wake up it would be like 3am. I currently started keeping a dream journal and notice whatever I see it usually happens like couple hours later. The most craziest thing I have saw in my dream is when something had told me there’s a missing body that haven’t been found yet and the person telling me was telling me where it was and I woke up checked the time and surely it was 3 am and I realized that I had one eye open while talking to this person as I’m dreaming but is aware and realized I was talking to a ghost (from this day on I been scared to sleep) and just recently like couple days ago I woke up surely at 2-3am and as I was trying to sleep something was coming through my mind telling me “NY man just killed himself” and when I was scrolling through fb I saw an article 1 hr later that surely a man in NY had killed himself from a handmade device. I really want to know what I have is it a gift or not because I’m really scared that a lot of things have been coming true.

    • Our psychic ability is here to help us and is of love and light. There is nothing to fear. Do keep learning and growing so you can expand your understanding of what it means to be psychic. Then, you can use it to help yourself and others. Warmly, Michelle

  • Brooke Sherman says:

    Hello,

    I stumbled across this read because over the last few years I’ve been having vivid dreams with family that has passed. They’re happening more frequently now. Most of the time they are sending me messages to pass onto someone else in the family. Some of the time, my first one was when I was 8, they are predictions that happen within days. I also see the number 1 in multiples when I’m hurting or when I need validation. I want to channel this more but I’m also kind of fearful that it will consume me. But I feel that these messages are very important. You mentioned a podcast, can you tell me what your podcast is called?

  • Katelyn Goney says:

    Hey there! I’ve had many wonderful experiences with the spiritual world. I stumbled upon your glorious page when trying to figure something out that i think could be a connection. Do you think you could help? Im a healer, empath, i have the gift to tarot and some other things as well. But I’ve experienced stomach pains every morning my whole life with nausea. There’s nothing health wise wrong. I was wondering if you think there’s a connection with my powers and i just don’t know how to use it? Any information greatly appreciated. ????
