How to identify your psychic ability

Posted on August 6, 2013February 20, 2016 by Mara Enid

Everyone has some psychic abilities, but we don’t all have the same abilities. We all pick up information via psychic methods but the way you pick up information likely differs from the way that I pick up information. In order to figure out what your psychic ability is, you must first learn the difference between different types of psychic ability.

If you want to understand the different types of psychic abilities, you need to know the four’ clairs.’

Clairvoyance

Clairvoyance is perhaps one of the most well-known psychic abilities. Clairvoyance is the ability to see information psychically in your mind’s eye. An image may come to mind that lets you know something that is going to happen in the future. Or you may see colors, patterns or words. The key with clairvoyance is that you see information psychically.

Clairsentience

Clairsentience is the ability to feel or sense psychic information about someone. When you have the psychic ability of clairsentience, you have strong feelings about things. You may describe a gut feeling. You may get a certain feeling in your belly when you get a psychic hunch.

Clairaudience

Clairaudience has everything to do with what you hear. People with clairaudience typically hear psychic information, almost like a voice in their head is providing information to them. There isn’t literally a voice, but the information seems to be conveyed in this way.

Claircognizance

Claircognizance is a psychic ability in which you just ‘know’ something. You receive information – you don’t really know how. But you just know something to be true as if the information was literally just dumped inside of you head.

Can you have more than one psychic ability?

Most of us have one predominant psychic ability that is stronger than the others. We may rely most on clairvoyance, or we may be more comfortable in the realm of feeling and stick to clairsentience. However, we can have more than one psychic ability. In fact, some people have all four psychic abilities.

You can also consciously choose to strengthen your psychic abilities in one or more of the clairs. A psychic development course is perhaps the best way to do this. Through a psychic development course, you learn exercises that allow you to strengthen  your psychic abilities just like a muscle. The more you use those psychic muscles, the stronger they get.

You can also strengthen your psychic abilities by learning to trust them. If you have clairvoyance, you must believe what you see to be true. If you are claircognizant, you must believe what you know. When you don’t believe in your psychic abilities, it’s as if you’re not really using them, and your abilities will eventually begin to fade away.

It’s also important that you don’t compare yourself to other people when it comes to psychic ability. Don’t look at someone else and think, they are more psychic than me. Everyone has their own path and their own psychic ability to develop. The more you focus on your path and what you’re trying to achieve, the stronger your psychic abilities will grow.
