Developing "Powers" or "Psychic Abilities"

Hey everyone!

This is my first blog here on NeoPaganWorld, and I just want to tell you all how happy I am to meet so many wonderful people on this site, I send warm blessings to you all.

I was just discussing and wondering how I can develop my "powers", and hopefully I can meet some people out there that can give me some tips and guidance, as I am new to wicca and everything that comes with it. Ok, here is my story..

Sometimes I have dreams or intuitions that usually warn me of bad things happening. Sometimes I just know or have a strong feeling, or I have a specific dream. For instance, one night I had horrible dreams about death. Next morning a house close by burned down, with a young girl inside it. She died. Although I couldn't see the specific house or that girl in my dream, my dreams were still about death, and I woke up with the feeling that something would happen, and it did. Is this just a coincidence?

Another story of when I was a kid.. My stepmother's mom was in the hospital sick from cancer. In the car on the way home from visiting her i told my stepmom that she would die. They kept telling me "no, she can still live for some time". She died the next day. Are we as kids more sensitive to these kind of things? It was like I just knew..

In primary school there was a horrible accident that happened to my classmate. I was in the car (again) listening to the radio. They announced that a ferry had gone down. Many people drowned, straight away this boy in my class came to my mind. I just had a strong feeling he was on that ferry, and he was. He drowned.

I have more stories like these also.. But I dont think it's necessery to tell them all. It just leaves me thinking, is this all just a coincidence or is it something else? Is it hereditary? I have heard similar stories from my mom, grandmom and even my great grandmom. Some years ago my mom started talking about this, she started telling me "Stine, we are witches". And she talked about "powers" of knowing things, before they happen, and even about the powers of healing.

Does anyone here have similar experiences? I would very much like to develop these kind of powers so I can help people as much as possible. Some people tell me they can tell of things happening both good and bad. Why do mine only come as warnings of something bad about to happen? I know this is different for everyone, but how can I develop this to become more beneficial?

Thank you all for helping me out.

Blessings,

LadyVicious

Comment by erthgoddss on December 4, 2008 at 2:30pm: This is just my opinion... so take it for what it is. I have had "premonitions" since I was a child... but like all "good Christian" children was told I had evil in me and to pray for them to go away. Ummm ok. :) As I got older I got interested in premonitions and ESP. From what I can tell... this is an inherent trait in all of us. We all have that feeling that something is going to happen or a feeling that we should drive a certain way rather than our usual route.... what happens when we ignore those feelings? Something usually happens, and how many times do we say "I knew I should have taken the other route or paid that bill or whatever it happens to be.

I believe that back when we were just cavemen running around looking for food... we had 2 things that were developed. One was the appendix (which has no use to us anymore but probably did back then) the other was that pesky ESP. It is what our ancestors used to survive. They knew danger was there and could get out of the way... etc. As we progressed in technology and increased awareness we no longer needed it and it faded away, but it is not gone. We can awaken it with practice and being aware and LISTENING to it.

LV... what I have done is embrace it. Along the way I have picked up spirits who communicate wiht me... usually in annoying symbols that can take me days to figure out.. but at least it is communication. :) The important thing is to listen carefully and be watchful. Don't 2nd guess things. When you "know" something... go with it.. don't ignore it.

Comment by Lady Vicious on December 4, 2008 at 12:01am: They usually come as a warning of something bad happening. Someone told me that the good ones might be there too, they just go unnoticed because we often remember the horrifying things. I was also told to start meditating and start a dream diary. Which I have. So hopefully I will benefit from that:) Ive been into meditation for a couple of months, and I am still new to it, so I find some of the exercises a bit hard. Especially the ones where u have to visualize. I would love to find a spiritual leader. That would be a really good idea. lol. Where can I found someone that would devote their time to help me out a lil bit? .. For now I am asking different people about their advice. It has been really helpful too. N yes it usually happens with people I know, but there has been incidences like the one with the girl in that house. I did not know her. Thanks for all the advice and thoughts about this topic! It is greatly appreciated!

Bright blessings,

Comment by Wintermoon on December 3, 2008 at 2:28pm: I have had a lot of the same things happen to me well not the same events but you know what I mean and I don't believe that they are coincidences at all. If they happened they had to happen for some reason. I think it might have something to do with people you know in your case, you know your link to them that instantly develops when you meet them might be making it easier for you to see these things. My question is do they only happen with bad things for you and do they only happen involving people that you know?

Comment by Ffawn on December 3, 2008 at 1:38pm: Blessings! First off let me tell you there are NO coincidences, everything happens for a reason. There is a video blog on my page and a Blog about Empathy. I think you would benefit from reading this. This is a great place full of wonderful information and Real people. Be careful not to believe everything just because someone else says so. Read, Research,experiment, but most of all use your own insight. Trust Yourself. Feel free to message me anytime.
