People that have psychic abilities can perform some actions that cannot be explained or fathomed by the natural sense of reasoning.
Also, anyone with psychic abilities uses extrasensory perception (ESP) to decode information hidden from the normal senses, particularly involving telepathy or clairvoyance,
Psychic abilities have been documented throughout the world since recorded history. Some people believe they have several intuitive or spiritual gifts while others only recognize having one psychic power.
Another argument against Psychic abilities is that it cannot be scientifically proven. Hence, some consider it as Pseudoscience.
There are many types of psychic abilities. So, check the definitions of some of them to determine which one you have. You might even know someone that has one as well.
Precognition
Precognition is the ability to discern forthcoming events or have prior knowledge of an event. This achieved most often than not with the use of other psychic abilities, such as ESP or clairvoyance. There are several ways that a psychic receives details of a future event. This can be in a vision or a flash of knowledge about the impending event. The psychic can receive a lot of details or have very limited information.
Clairvoyance
The Llewellyn Encyclopedia interprets clairvoyance as being one of several psychic abilities known as “supranormal visual talents.” Anyone with this special gift will have the ability to see visions of events, people, and places beyond physical eyesight. This includes seeing past, present, and future events as well as “non-physical things, such as spirits or supernatural figures” ESP and clairvoyance are often described the same since both are an ability to see and understand things that aren’t detected by the average person.
Levitation
Levitation is an act of lifting or rising into the air without any support. In the Hindu religion, it’s considered the result of a supernatural event. This ability is very rare although many people have imitated it only to be discovered to be tricksters. One of the criticisms against levitation is that it has elements satanic inclination.
Empathy
A psychic with empathic abilities can feel and share the emotions of another as well as their physical discomforts. The ability is involuntary, but the psychic can learn to control how she/he reacts to these often confusing feelings that don’t belong to her/him.
Aural Reader
An Aura reader can comprehend a person’s energy colours that are commonly called auras. According to Andy Murphy writing for Gaia, Egyptian and Hindu traditions describe 10 bodies within the auric field. The auric field is often seen radiating, “from 6-18 inches outside of the physical body.” Aura readers can see these colourful vibrations and provide insight into the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual nature of the person being read.
Clairalience
Sense of smell: An ability to smell a fragrance or odour that is being transmitted by the spirit. Each time, the people around cannot usually smell the odour. It can be related to the spirit who is sending the message such as smelling cigarettes or pipe tobacco for someone who smoked or the person’s favourite perfume.
Claircognizance
Psychics with this ability can understand things without having any prior knowledge about the topic. This knowledge is bewildering, just that the psychic knows it to be true. It’s believed that this knowledge is bestowed by their higher self or even spirit guides and is simply downloaded into their minds.
Clair audience or Clear Hearing
This is the ability to “hear” messages from the spirit realm. Messages are being transmitted directly into your mind. At times you may hear a non-descript voice call your name or a mix of voices like listening to a radio.
Pyrokinesis
Pyrokinesis refers to the ability to create fire with the mind and then be able to control it. The term was created by author Stephen King and used in his novel Firestarter. Psychokinesis Powers states this ability is alleged, and while some have claimed to have the ability to manipulate and even extinguish fires with their minds alone, none have claimed to have the ability to start fires with their minds.
Psychokinesis
A psychic with this kind of Psychic ability can move physical objects with his or her mind. Those with macro psychokinesis ability can move objects and control elements such as smoke and fire. Telekinesis (TK) is believed to be the most common application of macro psychokinesis. Micro psychokinesis bestows the ability to influence events that have random results, such as games of chance.
