Believe It or Not, You're Already Psychic!

People hold some very strange stereotypes about psychics: that they know what everyone is thinking, that they can predict the future, that they can move objects without touching them and that they can cast spells over people.  Well, to be able to do all of these things would be a very tall order indeed!

Being psychic is far more subtle than that.  Being psychic is just being sensitive to and aware of the subtle energies that surround us.  Your physical body is a very sensitive receiver, or in other words, you can physically feel other people's emotional energy.  The most obvious example is when someone is directing their anger onto you.  It might feel like sharp, little jabs all around you, or it might feel like a hard punch to the stomach.  In any case, it feels very uncomfortable.  Depending on your nature, you will want to fight, take flight, or freeze.

On the opposite end of the spectrum is being able to feel someone directing love energy towards you.  There might be a warmth to it, and a feeling of being connected or "on the same wavelength."  If you are not interested in receiving that person's love, this energy will make you feel annoyed or smothered.

In both of these examples, the other person's anger or love energy entered your own private space, which you physically felt and reacted to.  Much of what we feel everyday is other people's energy in our personal space.  It is very common to exchange energy with the people around you.  But at the end of the day, it is best to clear your head and your space of everyone else's opinions, demands and expectations.  This is important so that you can know who you are, what you think, and how you feel.  It is empowering to feel clarity about yourself and your situations.

By developing your sensitivities (i.e., your psychic abilities), you can learn how to tell which energy and thoughts are your own, and which energies and thoughts have been directed at you from someone else.  You can become aware of those energies as soon as they enter your personal domain.  If you are interested, you can take it another step further and learn how to perceive or "read" other people's energy even before they invade your space with it.  Think of it as "people watching" and being able to get validated for your observations. 

Developing your psychic abilities involves much personal growth.  You have to let go of your preconceived ideas about people and situations. Your judgments hinder your ability to read clearly. Whether you consider yourself a "psychic" or not, being consciously aware of energy, protecting your personal  space and having a strong sense of self are valuable skills to have.
