How to Sharpen Psychic Abilities

What may be a surprise to many people who have never developed psychic abilities is that the visions and messages that we get are rarely crystal clear. More often than not, a psychic sees blurred images on receives somewhat conflicting messages, which can be difficult to make out or interpret exactly. This often leads to errors in interpretations, bad advice, and a negative experience for all involved parties.

So how do you sharpen psychic abilities to the point where you will see an increase in the accuracy of your predictions? This is a question we all must ask ourselves if we are to work towards mastering psychic abilities.

Well, it should be noted that many people believe that it is impossible for one to sharpen their psychic abilities based on their perceptions of the way the universe works. As I wrote in my Predestination or Choice article, there are millions of psychics out there who believe that fate is based on the decisions we make today, and that it is nearly impossible to predict things far off into the future. People who believe this often claim that the fuzziness or distortion in what we see in images or receive in psychic messages is based on the fact that there are still some decisions which must be made in order to reach this point.

In this case, our inability to see is based in practicality, and is put in as a safety measure.

Of course, there are many times where psychics see things with perfect clarity, and they work out the way that is planned. This is common in cases where the inevitable will happen, giving further credence to the argument above.

However, it is still possible to sharpen our psychic powers, and the methods in which we can do that are abundant. As always, dedicated application of guided meditation, as well as journaling, will keep your psychic power in practice, and works like exercise for your “psychic muscles”.

Working with chakras, particularly in cleansing and strengthening the abilities of your third eye, is very helpful for most individuals in sharpening their psychic powers. Yoga can also be a benefit, since the chakra system is based on philosophies handed down through yogic tradition.

If doing readings with a particular divination tool, you may want to try and switch to a different tool, or try learning a new method of divination. Since there is no one tool which can tell us everything, you may find that tarot cards give certain information, while runes, or the I Ching give you more information, better clarity, or specify particular aspects which your other divination systems were unable to provide.

Thus, the question of how to sharpen psychic abilities is a difficult one to answer, based heavily in your belief system.

How to Increase Psychic Communication

Looking back on my post about why psychics don’t win the lottery, I feel compelled to continue by talking about how to increase psychic communication.

After all, I am a firm believer in the fact that most real psychics cannot summon their powers on demand. I would venture to say that you must be an incredibly powerful psychic in order to do so, and even that the majority of professional readers in the world have become at least a little disillusioned by the true nature of their powers.

Every reputable psychic who I’ve come to trust and talk with on a regular basis agrees on one thing: the most powerful psychic predictions are not “made”, they simply come to you out of the blue, about something which you might not have even considered or thought about before in your life. This is called psychic communication: the act of receiving some kind of premonition without having asked or thought about it ever before. These psychic communications are like a psychic memo from the world, and are a natural part of your being, and you cannot control them.

For example: My first major psychic premonition occurred when I was about 17 years old. I was sitting in my kitchen after dinner, and I was working on my homework when I suddenly felt a certain amount of distress over nothing at all. I calmly closed my eyes and entered a state of openness as I had learned from a book I read on the subject and I had a mental image of a street corner about half a mile away from my house.

I jumped up and ran out the door and headed over to that corner, when I noticed a drunk driver careening down the road, and his car swerved funny, hitting a light post on the corner, hard, knocking him unconscious. Nobody else was around, except for me. I called the police, and they came to take him to the hospital to treat his wounds. Fortunately for me, nobody asked me how I knew that he was going to be there, and why I was out so late at night wandering around my town.

As should be obvious, this is not an everyday kind of psychic premonition, however, it was a very powerful one, and very lucky for the driver of the car that I was able to determine what I should do with it. Many students of psychic powers ask me after hearing this story: what can I do to increase psychic communication? Considering examples like this, the more profound predictions we can make, the better off we will be as a species.

Unfortunately, in my years of study, I have yet to find a single viable method which shows how to increase psychic communication of this kind. It is very likely that these kinds of predictions are sent out to everyone, and that only a few people know enough about the subject and their own intuition to act on them in time.

So what can you do? I feel like learning how to increase psychic communication is best done through learning to develop your native psychic abilities and your ability to interpret them correctly. This is essential to all psychic development, and an integral part in learning how to increase psychic communication.

After all, I was young, and the only message I got was an image of a street corner. I didn’t know exactly what was going to happen, and that message could have been interpreted in a number of different ways (for instance, I could have interpreted the area as a zone of danger, with the message of “stay away from there”).

Hopefully, this gives you a little guidance.

Other Psychic Development Exercises

While meditation and things like that are probably the very best psychic development exercises, there are many other things that you can try when attempting to develop your psychic powers.

I have always been an advocate of improving the mind and the spirit by improving the body, so I’ve been interested in things like Yoga and the martial arts as good methods of improving psychic ability. In addition to the obvious benefits of working out your body and mind, these disciplines often involve some aspects of meditation and even have their own psychic development exercises built in to the curriculum (in fact, not too long ago, I posted in my newsletter about chi and it’s application in psychic development).

In addition to this, you can also try listening to particularly emotive music. This in particular has allowed me to see more than I think I would have normally.

Go out and explore nature on a quiet afternoon walk through a forest preserve or some other place like that. There are many secrets hidden in nature that might reveal themselves to someone looking for answers. I’ve had a few students comment to me that they’ve used the reflective surface of lakes as divination tools, and collected stones to use for rune-tiles from their walks.

Peter Altuch posted a while back on hrshopperblog about how to use drawing as a psychic development exercise.

Are you seeing a trend here? Anything that you find peaceful can be used as a way to quiet the mind. Quieting the mind is, without a doubt, the most important psychic development exercise you can learn. Fortunately, there are many different ways to do that.

Want to know How to be Psychic?

Learning how to be psychic is actually quite a simple process, though you’ll have to put in some effort to improve your powers to a significant level.

As I’ve posted a few times before, almost every psychic in the world considers every person in the world to have some psychic powers. The reason is simple: we all are people of the same species, and thus, we all have similar abilities. Certainly, even though some people can sing better than others, every person on the planet can sing. The same is true of psychic powers.

If you want to know how to be psychic, the first thing you need to do is to be cognizant of the fact that you’re having psychic premonitions every day. A psychic event is whenever you know something will happen without having some sort of facts or previous knowledge that it will happen.

That could be almost anything, but most commonly, it occurs when you create a psychic connection with your friends or your partner. There are times when you can simply look at a person and you can tell what they are thinking, or what happened. While certainly, you are reading in some context clues, there is a great deal that isn’t being communicated by body language which you can usually fill in. For instance, you may be able to tell that they are having a bad day from a person’s face, but if you know who or what caused that bad day to happen, you are using your psychic powers, often without even knowing that you had them.

So if you wanted to find out how to be psychic, sorry, you already are. If you want to know a little more about how to improve your psychic abilities, consider signing up for my newsletter and getting my beginner’s guide (all free!).

Free Online Psychic Advice? Is it real?

When one searches for free online psychic advice, one should be careful as there is always the chance to run into unscrupulous individuals. The Internet is a wonderful arena for the exchanging of ideas on virtually any subject, but it prudent to be careful of course. Just as you wouldn’t blindly accept the advice of a person that claimed to be psychic on the street randomly, you should get to know a free online psychic advice website before just plunging in and practicing.

Ask yourself first if it’s truly free. Like many sites, sometimes psychic ones promise free information or even online consultation, yet come with a sudden hidden fee before you can access all the features. Also, don’t assume that since something is free it’s worthless! It used to be true that in order to explore psychic powers one had to have the money to join groups that offered training. Or luck out and find a teacher willing to accept a student. But it also took quite a bit of time to actually progress and usually had degrees of rank, initiations, and occasionally a screening process. Now, however, from one’s home one can learn all they wish for no cost (like, oh, I don’t know, my free newsletter).

One benefit to a good free online psychic advice website is that it may offer a plethora of techniques and tips for the curious seeker to try. These sites may have forums and blogs neatly organized into a variety of different types of powers or may not, but the search would be well worth the read to learn about what is possible. And for the experienced psychonaut there may be completely new ideas to work with.

Another good feature of free online psychic advice websites is the community. Usually, through the forums and blogs, one can also find people sharing their personal experiences and ideas. This is helpful to the beginner because it helps introduce the idea of practicing one’s psychic powers from the viewpoint of an actual psychic as opposed to a psychologist trying to explain it somehow. These attempts at explanation tend to have the reverse effect, discouraging people with psychological terminology, or doubt that what they are experiencing is real. A good website may even offer study groups or help form them so that feedback and encouragement is available.

And of course there is the fact that as you share your experiences in the company of like minded individuals, you may also inspire and mentor others. We are all psychic and the more people that develop this fantastic gift, the better the chance that psychic powers will return to more mainstream use. And the more free online psychic advice websites to share this previously hidden information.
