How to Enhance Your Psychic Powers

Psychic powers may be developed through meditation and practicing with cards and pendulums.

People experience phenomena known as intuition, gut feelings and hunches every day. When you learn to pay attention to your sixth sense and hone and develop your psychic powers, these intuitive experiences may take shape and grow into advanced skills such as clairvoyance, divination and mediumship. With determination and perseverance, you may be able to develop those faculties into acute abilities.

Instructions

1. 

   Tarot, oracle and playing cards have been used as devices for telling the future.

   Deploy tools to develop your intuition and psychic skills. Commonly used mechanisms include tarot cards, oracle cards, runes, I Ching, crystals, pendulums and tea leaves. According to Julie Soskin, author of "Discover and Develop Your Sixth Sense at Any Age," using those devices can help you sharpen your psychic sensitivity and bridge the gap between your conscious and subconscious mind. Practice with one of these tools regularly.

2. 

   Purchase a special journal just for recording your psychic experiences.

   Keep a psychic journal. Make an entry every time you experience an intuition, insight, vision, vivid dream, hunch or special coincidence. Use the journal to explore those experiences and train your mind to keep your senses awake and alert. A psychic journal will also help you interpret and understand information and guidance that come through to you.

3. 

   Meditation helps calm the mind.

   Learn how to meditate. If you really want to receive clear guidance and psychic messages, meditation is important, says Jeanette Wilson, television psychic and author of "Dare to Believe." Through meditative practice, your mind is more receptive, relaxed and open to notice intuition and psychic messages. You should never attempt to use your psychic skills when you are feeling stressed, depressed or anxious, says Jeanette Wilson. Use meditation to help gain clarity and calmness of mind.

4. 

   Workshops and classes can help put you into contact with people who share your interests.

   Enrol in a workshop to learn how to develop psychic powers. Often these courses cover a wide range of skills such as seeing auras, contacting spirits, using crystals, reading tarot cards and interpreting dreams. Learn everything you can about the people who run these workshops. Call the teachers and ask them about the curriculum and what practical experiences they offer in their class. Some psychics and mediums also offer online courses.

5. 

   Find ways of using your gifts in your daily life.

   Practice as often as possible to refine your psychic skills. Attuning yourself to psychic messages and energies is similar to developing a particular muscle. Set yourself a personal goal that is both specific and measurable for how often you will practice and how many people you aim to work with over the next week, months and year.

6. 

   Visit your local library and explore their section of psychic and paranormal topics.

   Read books on the experiences of well-known and respected psychics and mediums. Many famous psychics such as Sylvia Browne, Lisa Williams and John Williams have books and autobiographies detailing their personal experiences and offering useful advice for those who wish to develop similar faculties within themselves. Read these books for knowledge, wisdom and advice, as well as inspiration and motivation to keep learning and improving of your own skills.
