My Psychic Journey
A year ago, I would’ve never called myself a psychic. That was a word that seemed like it had too many expectations tied to it. I wasn’t sure that I could pull off what I was meant to do as a psychic. Of course, some things kept happening, coincidences and synchronicities that were hard to explain, but was I really able to say that I was a psychic?
Psychics are people who are supposed to be able to see and predict the future, right? Some can even tell you how many kids that you’ll have or will know how someone would meet their soulmate. That wasn’t how things came to me. I wasn’t going to make promises that I couldn’t even keep.
As I looked at the different experiences and techniques, I found that being a psychic isn’t a one-size-fits-all-all. It’s not about being like everyone else but it’s more about seeing the abilities that you have and learning to trust yourself and what you have to offer.
Knowing Your Psychic Gifts
The biggest change for me came when I realized that getting an intuitive message is something that is normal. When you refuse to hear them or you try to block them, this can cause you to have energy blocks, or it can even cause you to doubt yourself or to be fearful of the spiritual world.
Sometimes it’s easier to do things that seem familiar to you than to try things that aren’t. If you want to develop your own gifts, you can try these things to connect with yourself and to learn to trust who you are!
Psychic Development Groups
When you’re just starting out as a psychic, you could try to join a psychic development group. These are groups that are sometimes called spiritual development circles or even mediumship classes. These are classes that allow you to go to a place where you’re with other people who have the same gifts as you.
For me, attending a workshop with TV psychic Katie Helliwell in 2019 was a turning point. I ended up there through a series of coincidences, a story for another time, but that day changed everything for me. Holding a photo of an older man, given to me by a woman in the group, I closed my eyes, tuned in, and started writing down whatever came to me. When I read it back, I was shocked, I had written his name, the year he died, his profession, and even his dog’s name. The woman started to cry, and I nearly did too. It was the first time I knew, without a doubt, that what I was receiving was real.
Being in a group and sharing experiences gives you proof that you’re not just imagining things. The best part? Psychic development circles are often affordable, especially at Spiritualist churches, and they’re a great way to connect with like-minded people.
Using Cards to Strengthen Intuition
Since I was a teenager, tarot cards have been my go-to tool. Even during times when I felt disconnected, they gave me a way to tap into something bigger. Over the years, I’ve expanded to oracle and angel cards, which carry a more uplifting energy.
If you’re a beginner, I would suggest that you try oracle cards before you try things like tarot cards. These are easier to read, and they usually have messages on them that allow you to connect with your intuition. When you add your own impressions and feelings to the cards, you can make a connection that is strong with the cards.
Third Eye Chakra Blocks
Your third eye is found between your eyes in the middle of your forehead. This is the place where you get your powers and your psychic gifts. Some people have their third eye chakra blocked because of past fears, experiences, or even false or limiting beliefs. Where some people were raised to think that being a psychic was evil, it can cause blockages in their chakras.
By balancing the chakras and healing your inner self, you can open up your third eye and you can reach deep into your intuition, and your gifts will come to you and feel more natural.
Manifesting Your Psychic Gifts
Just like anything else in your life, you can manifest your psychic gifts. This is how you make a connection with your gifts. The first thing that you have to do is to make sure that you have clear intentions on what you want. Do you want to find your psychic gifts, or do you want to develop them? Some energies can block you from moving forward and by setting intentions you can stop these blocks.
When you accept that your thoughts and your perspective can change, you can align your goals with your higher self. This can help you to get rid of energy that is blocking you from moving forward.
Trusting Yourself
You can practice until you can’t practice anymore but one thing is true, the less you trust yourself, the less you will develop your gifts. You have to learn to trust yourself and to stop ignoring yourself when messages come. You have to be open to the messages that you get. The more that you trust your own intuition, the stronger it gets.
When you go to a psychic development class, you will see that trust is one of the biggest things that they talk about. It’s what helps you to have self-confidence and to have a stronger connection with your gifts. As you learn to embrace your gifts, you will move forward.
If you are constantly doubting yourself and all the messages that you get, you will keep questioning yourself. But, if you trust that you are getting real messages, you will be more open to the gifts and you will see them start to grow.
Final Thoughts
Developing your psychic gifts isn’t about how fast you can do it but it’s about how much effort you put into it. Not everyone will be able to achieve their full gift in one lifetime. But, if you love the spiritual world and you’re drawn to developing your psychic gift, it means that you are curious and you’re ready to explore. It can be a sign that your intuition is already guiding you to better yourself.
Trust your journey and honor the timing and you will see that you can use your gifts the way that you want to. The more you listen and trust your psychic powers, the stronger they will get.
