How Do You Know If You Are Psychic?

Often I’ll get a question from clients or acquaintances asking “How do I know if I’m psychic?” Most have had some experience that was quite out of the ordinary. Many wonder why other people haven’t experienced the same thing they have. 

Some people feel things, hear voices or see people that others can’t. Others have quite vivid dreams or visions that later come true. Still others become overwhelmed with sudden emotions, while in crowded places or situations that clearly aren’t their own. Some people have quite strong intuition that leads them to either take a certain action or avoid one that turns out to have been the right thing to do.

These situations are all great signs you can use to tell if you are psychic. Let’s go through them in order.

Feeling Energy and Vibrational Shifts

Ever feel the temperature of the air suddenly change? Have you experienced a feeling like cobwebs over your face or some other body part? How about feeling the skin on an arm or leg begin to tingle like millions of tiny champagne-like bubbles popping? Ever felt someone was nearby (a "presence"), but you couldn't see them?

These are examples of clairsentience. Clairsentience is the non-physical ability to sense clear feelings (that detect energy and vibration) giving you information your physical senses can’t pick up.

Hearing Voices or Music

Everyone has heard a voice in their head, but they usually assume that it’s their own subconscious mind talking. However, have you heard a voice in your head that sounds more like someone who has passed, or perhaps someone you don’t recognize? 

The voice will always be loving, offer only kind suggestions and will never be reprimanding. That’s spirit communicating with you. If you hear derogatory or demanding comments, however, that’s your own subconscious mind (aka your ego). 

If you hear music in your mind, perhaps significant for a loved one who has passed, or even in your ears that is repeated, that’s clearly spirit trying to get your attention and let you know who’s communicating. Pay attention to the lyrics, as they will often contain the very message spirit is trying to convey.

Seeing Spirit

Some people see spirit in their mind’s eye (third eye via clairvoyance). Clairvoyance is the ability to see images clearly in one’s mind. This is a form of communication, as the images are often given by spirit as a way of describing themselves or relaying information. 

Other people can also see spirit as a full-body apparition, objectively observing spirit with their own eyes. While this objective clairvoyance is often rare, it definitely suggests a strong communication ability.

Vivid or Intense Visions or Dreams 

Do you get visions that are often vivid and intense, and they may come true in real life, regardless of how short they are? Though you might ignore these visions, they’re really showing you just how strong your psychic abilities are. 

In a similar manner, perhaps you get intense or vivid dreams showing something that you feel has yet to occur. To your surprise, you find that they too come true in real life. These are not like regular vague dreams, these are quite intense and detailed and leave you with highly descriptive memories for a long time. Pay attention to your dreams, especially with a dream journal.

Feel Strong, Overwhelming Emotions

Do you ever feel yourself absorb emotions that belong to others but you don’t know why? Perhaps you’ve suddenly felt like crying but you didn’t know what caused it. Maybe you feel an onset of panic overcome you, yet you’re not in a situation that might lead to that. 

If you’ve encountered this situation numerous times, this may be a good indicator that you’re a psychic. You need to protect yourself from others’ emotions, lest you allow yourself to be a sponge with no control at all.

Strong Intuition or Gut Feelings

Many people refer to their hunches or gut feelings as instinct. When these instincts often come true, it’s often a sign that your psychic abilities are closer to the surface than you realize. It’s important to trust your intuition, rather than ignore it. Over the next week or two, whenever you have a gut instinct, follow that first instinct and see what happens. It may just surprise you just how accurate it is.

If you feel you have psychic or mediumistic abilities that you’d like to develop, a great place to begin is my Free Psychic Development Course. I also invite you to explore my MontClairMedum School for Psychic Arts. Here, there are courses for every level and every interest. I feel it’s important to enable everyone to develop their innate psychic abilities that are lying beneath the surface. For most people, they just lie dormant, and people aren’t aware they have them.
