Advice On How to Develop Psychic Abilities Needed!

Hey everyone!

I have this as a blog also on my profile, if u want to post your comments there instead. Feel free.. All thoughts, help and guidance are highly needed and appreciated.

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,
