Your psychic abilities lay dormant within you, but they can be awakened at any point in your life. That is because everyone is given a gift of the “sixth sense,” but people rarely have the need to use it, so it has been cast aside in our modern world. So, when you learn how to develop psychic abilities, it will be an exciting journey towards awakening your higher consciousness. Learn about the steps to developing your abilities and how to recognize them.
How to develop your psychic abilities
Your abilities can reveal themselves in many ways, whether in a form of sharp intuition or one or more of your senses being unusually strong. If you are open to exploring your inner psychic, just awaken your consciousness and prepare for a long but rewarding journey. Here are some tips on how to develop psychic abilities.
1. Welcome your abilities
You might be ready to learn how to develop your psychic abilities, but are you ready to accept them into your life? Being open to the fact that your psychic abilities lay dormant in your body will be the first step toward accepting their existence. It is natural to have doubts because your belief in the supernatural becomes weaker as you acquire the worldview taught to you by society. There are also many people claiming to be psychics who in fact have no abilities. But do not think you are fooling yourself. Instead, focus on your powers and let them show you the way. Psychic abilities are more common than you think, so if you see the signs of your abilities developing, trust them.
2. Tune into your intuition
Intuition is different from your thoughts. It is your gut feeling, the part of your ability which you turn to unconsciously. Your intuition helps you analyze the situation before making a decision and before you turn to rational thinking. So, to tune into it, make sure to give yourself some time to think every decision over using your intuitive powers. Go about your day and let your intuition play different scenarios in your mind so you can receive the signs steering you toward the right choice. When you develop your psychic abilities, your intuition will become your right hand in decision making.
3. Keep a journal
Journaling is very important for your growth as a psychic. Maybe you are already having psychic dreams or visions. Or maybe you want to record your progress as your abilities are developing. Keeping track of your dreams, impressions, and the signs you notice will help you remember everything happening to you so that you can reflect on it later. Maybe the meaning of few things was not clear when they happened. Later, get back to them and interpret the symbolism behind the dreams and visions. Sometimes, you might have a feeling of déjà vu. But maybe it is not just a feeling, and you had a premonition about that event in the past. Having a journal would help you figure that out too.
4. Open your third eye
Have you heard about such a thing as a third eye? Every person has an eye which is located between the eyebrows, but invisible to the world. But you typically do not use the third eye unless you practice opening it. Sit quietly and try to envision your third eye and bring the energy into it so it opens. You should make practicing opening your third eye a daily technique to help develop your psychic abilities. Envision white light around the area where your third eye is located and let the divine forces send messages to you through your heightened sense of “sight.” You can also practice chakra meditation to open your third eye chakra and awaken divine perception.
5. Practice awareness
Our lives have become extremely busy nowadays. You juggle between work, home, and social life, with your mind often running on autopilot. So, you might think it is difficult to achieve awareness, but that is actually not the case. You need to practice being aware of your surroundings, of the people, places, and things around you, and about the actions you are taking. Look at everything as if you are looking at things for the first time – the sun, the sky, the wind, the daylight, and the night sky. As you observe, think about your dreams and visions, and also about the signs you are receiving. Meditation is also a great way to achieve awareness. Becoming more aware will help you understand what your psychic powers are telling you and whether it is your intuition telling you things or just your imagination.
How to tell if your abilities are awakening
Now that you know how to develop psychic abilities, let’s think about how you can notice that your abilities are awakening. The signs are different for every person, but there might be some things you notice that apply to you.
- One such sign is being more aware and more knowledgeable about spiritual wisdom. When you begin to understand your spirituality and tune into it on a different level, this is when you can say that your abilities are developing.
- Apart from that, your senses might become heightened. Perhaps the noises would seem too loud, or your taste buds will be more sensitive to sweet or salty foods. This usually happens when your clairvoyant abilities are developing.
- You might also notice a higher sensitivity to energies surrounding you. Some places you have been to previously might not feel right anymore, or you will not trust the people that you were comfortable with before. You might even change your circle of friends, leaning toward people with kind souls.
These are just some of the changes you might notice. You might also have psychic dreams and finally understand signs from the universe, something you may have not noticed before. And this is great, because this means your abilities are awakening. But even though you might have developed basic psychic skills, there is still a very long road ahead of you before you could call yourself a psychic. So, if you are looking for a psychic reading, turn to the help of a clairvoyant or a medium with years of experience to get the answers you seek.
