Psychic generally refers to someone who can read minds, though it is often used as an umbrella term to refer to anyone with some sort of ESP or the like.\n\nMedium generally refers to someone who can talk to or contact spirits or ghosts, and thus be used as a go-between for people and ghosts to communicate.\n\nClairvoyant generally refers to someone who can see the future or things that are far away. \n\nThat is of course if you believe in the existance of psychic phenomena or ESP or that sort of thing.

It is your belief that will help bring it to pass, or not.  A psychic only reads what they see.  Nothing they say (and legitimate psychics know this and will tell you) is carved in stone.  You always have the power to change what you don't like; the power is yours.

Typically a "medium" needs to be in contact with you, hear your voice, etc.  It's just a means of making you real.  A "medium" has a gift that allows spirits in and without direct contact with a blood relative it is really difficult to pick out which spirit belongs to whom.  I've had some experience in the area, but I truly can't get a good read on what spirit is trying to come through without having some sort of contact with the person that is inquiring about the spirit.

There are people who claim to be able to see into the future, move objects without touching them, or talk to the dead, but none of them are real. There has never once been any proven psychic in the world currently. If they ever existed, they were known as "Prophets."

I'm not Wiccan but this is not limited to Wiccans only.\n\nThere are different kinds of spirits of different levels of spiritual evolution. Some can still be attached to the earthly plane and try to attach to an individual and live and exist through that individual. That spirit would not have the individual's well being and highest good at heart.\n\nThere are some spirits that are high-level spiritual guides from the higher realm. They can be enlightened beings, Masters, Angels, etc. They work in service to God and continue to assist human beings in their spiritual growth. They vibrate in a much higher energy level. So one needs to increase their vibration in order to be able to connect to the highest level spiritual guides. They only speak of love and wisdom. Never anything negative or egoistic.\n\nThe ouija board is just a divination tool. What the user knows beforehand determines the outcome of using it. If one uses it with ignorance, then they will get a ignorant experience. If one uses it properly, knowing how to protect themselves, knowing how to call the highest good guides and know how to send them back and close it properly then it is all good.\n\nSo if anybody is going to have the intent to communicate or work with spirit guides, they should be knowledgeable about such matters first so they can be in control and recognize who they are dealing with.\n\nI highly recommend books by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer. I've read many of their books, and give them        up! http://www.orindaben.com Their books are very easy to read and understand and are full of love and light.\n\nAs for communicating with the      if they are already in a new life, that is a good question. I don't know if I have the correct answer, but it is just a theory. The Over Soul can be looked at as one circle with several smaller circles each living a life. All of those lives living are connected to the same individual (Over Soul). Time itself is a man-made concept. Time is truly not linear, it does not exist, so therefore "past lives" are actually "parallel lives". When the medium is communicating with the deceased person, I believe they are only talking to the lower self (the smaller circle) of that person while there is already another lower self of the same Higher Self (Over Soul) is already living a life stimultaneously.\n\nMany psychics can not only see the past lives they can also see into the future lives, so that means it is like taking a peek into another life and watching it real time. Time is just an illusion.\n\nI know complex ugh? But it is good to wonder about such things like that!

The difference between the ouija board and tarot cards is huge.  Ouija boards are traditionally devices used to 'contact' discarnate spirits who have passed on, or energies who have never been incarnated.  That means, unless you are projecting out loads of positive 'white light' while using one, you can attract a whole host of annoying interlopers.\n\nThe tarot, on the other hand, is used as a focal point to get in touch with your intiuitve self, or, 'higher self' as its been called.  You use the cards to access spiritual knowledge, not from spirits, but from yourself.  Big difference.\n\nAlos, most ouija board information is a load of crap, because of not-knowing who you are talking to.  Occasionally someone gets a good contact with good info, but it is rare.  'Haunting' experiences are not uncommon.\n\nI have used the board in the past, no problems, but nothing too interesting ever came through.  I had a sensitive friend who started channeling one board 'spirit' via automatic writing, and had to stop because the contact was getting too intrusive.\n\nHave to be careful with those things...

ALL that exists in our world is from God. God is in *everything* including the rocks, trees, birds, etc.\n\nEvery single person has the ability to be more aware, more intuitive (psychic). Mothers are naturally very intuitive about their children when something goes wrong. That is a level of psychic awareness. The word psychic has had a bad, negative rap. One can become more aware with themselves and beyond if they continue to inner work in all areas of their life continuously. It\n\nIn order to understand how pyschic readings work you need to have had several from different people to understand what it truly means. Each person is not the same. And it also requires knowing the sincerity of the person. I can tell right off the bat if someone is very true and sincere with their readings as opposed to one that is not because I know alot about this subject.\n\nI've had several readings when the person has told me a lot of details of what is going on in my life that I never told the person. They help me have more clarity and understand better on anything I ask about.\n\nI do not do psychic readings for predictions. That is for people who want to be entertained. I do not use it for entertainment. I use it for personal growth.\n\nSo there are two kinds of people that seek readings, one for entertainment/amusement and another that seek serious guidiance.

As Pangel said, Helen Duncan. A true pioneer of Spiritualism\n\nI know a lady that sat with her and I was chatting with her last night and she was telling me how fantastic her physical mediumship was.

Some mystiques try to explain that spirits and those stuffs are composed of energy with frequencies or something. They prove this using a whole leaf and they get a "reading" of the leaf's "soul" or energy that is radiated[they got pictures of it]. They, then, cut a large part of the leaf and get another "reading" and they still get the same reading as the whole leaf [meaning the image of the energy radiated by the leaf is still the same]. This method, they also claim, can read poltergeists, ghosts, spirits and all those stuff.

Clairvoyant is a person having clairvoyance which literally means "clear vision." Although there are several studies that have been or still being conducted about this paranormal ability, most researchers are still skeptical about the idea.\n\nClairvoyants claim to have one or more of the following abilities:\n1. The ability to see the other realms (spirit realm, ghosts, demons, nature beings, divine beings such as angels, etc.)\n2. The ability to know in detail, events that happened in the past (Russian research focuses on this for criminal investigative purposes).\n3. The ability to foretell future events.\n4. The ability to see beyond opaque matter, some kind of x-ray vision if you will.\n\nClairvoyance may not always profess itself as enhanced visions. "Clear" hearing and smell can also be classified as clairvoyance.\n\nExperts say that these abilities are said to innate and that all persons possess them. However, the level or degree of these abilities vary one person to another. There are several sites that talks of training oneself to activate clairvoyance. Or you can visit your local bookstore or library for books about opening your clairvoyance.

A spiritual person is one who has faith in a belief and a superstitious person is one who believes in things that are generally accepted as unfounded. It is just a thought but it could happen that one day belief in the supernatural could become generally discredited and then it too would be superstition.

I don't particularly believe in psychics myself, but if in a situation of desperation, most people, including me, would do whatever it takes to get things done. A friend of mine had a sister that was missing for almost 2 years, her family finally decided to use a psychic, between the police and the psychic, her sisters body was found.

Most so-called Psychics are nothing more then con artists who know how to listen or do research, Rosemary, so you shouldn't believe them. You'd think in 26 years of life you'd know there are con artists everywhere. Make yourself a dish of Mango Ice Cream and think about it.\n\nAnd no, I'm not psychic or a con artist. I just used a few of their tricks on you. I looked at a few of your answers. Simple research to learn a few things about you. If I had been trying to con you I could have looked at more then just a few answers that looked promising and probibly learned more personal details but I have no reason to dig deep.\n\nIf there really is anyone out there with the gift, they've never proven it to me. I've always figured out their con before the bite for money happens.

Clairessence is intuitively smelling that which is not visible to the normal eye. Clairvoyance is intuitively having knowledge of people and things. Clairaudience is intuitively hearing that which is not visible to the normal eye. Clairsentience is intuitively having knowledge or people or things through touch. \nThese are what people call the psychic senses or the sixth sense. Really the sixth sense is a hieghtened awareness of one or more of the physical senses.\nOut of all these psychic senses, I only have clairessence. Its very hard to interpret a smell!!

There are a number of ways that a non-psychic can commun with the dead,  \n\nBEWARE DARK BEGETS DARK AND WHITE BEGETS WHITE\n\nYou can use a talking board to contact the spirit world but you get out what you put in and there is no way of knowing if the entity you are talking with is actualy the spirit you are seeking.  \n\nHere is a link to a site that may be very useful to you.\n\nwww.museumoftalkingboards.com
