List of Psychic Abilities - Special Skills for the Psychic Set

There are a wide range of psychic abilities. Psychic, in more academic circles anyway - refers to a much larger set of skills and phenomena than "knowing what is going to happen". While many of these psychic abilities can be studied in a lab setting, making them available to the discerning eye of scientific inquiry, many of the more esoteric psychic skills tend to defy convention and closer analysis. ( Which of course makes them that much more fun to explore! )

Some of the different types are listed below:

Automatic writing: To do this you need a pen and paper and no thought whatsoever - just write. You can stop whenever you want. Read what you have written and most likely you will be very surprised. This is said to be the writings of your subconscious mind or even that of an unseen force. Some even find that their writings are more intelligent and impressive than if they tried using conscious thought.

Channeling: This is done when a spirit uses a psychic to communicate. Most often the psychic's voice will change because it is not their voicebox but that of the spirit.

Clairaudience: This is also a very interesting ability. It is that of hearing sounds not audible to other humans. Psychics say they can either hear people "talking" to them as if they are standing next to them or in their minds with different voices.

Clairvoyance: This is the ability to see what is not physically in front of you - but with your mind's eye. This is how some psychics see spirits. They are seen either as a physical body or as a picture.

Precognition: This is knowing about an event before it took place. Many people have dreams that they later find have come true. This is likely to happen to most of us - however, when it happens many times than it becomes more and more impressive.

Psychometry: This is knowing about a person through touching their personal belongings. While looking for missing persons, many psychics ask to be given a personal object of the person first.

Remote Viewing: This is the process of knowing what is happening in another location in the present time - such as who is there, what they are wearing and what they are saying.

Telepathy: This is quite simply reading the minds of others. This is still under debate on whether the power even exists. It is more likely psychics are reading other's emotions rather than their actual thoughts.
