Psychic Abilities & The Tool's Used

   When one asks me "Ron? How do you do it?", I simply answer "Like anything else that I do, I just do it". As a Psychic, I have an ability to access intuition by simply doing it. This is an inherit ability that has been cultivated over a 30 year career. There are many cases that call for the use of psychic tools in order to facilitate a reading. I can touch the personal belongings of someone in order to get case sensitive information. I can look at a photo or read a letter and connect to the information that I need.

   There are Psychic tools that I use for specific tasks. Think of a Psychic as a Carpenter. The Carpenter has the knowledge and experience to build a home or construct a piece of furniture. The tools a psychic uses may vary from hammer and nails to reciprocating saws and chisels. Not all psychics are created equal and their abilities vary. The tools that they use for their craft may vary as well. I will begin by listing the different types of psychic abilities followed by the different types of divination tools that are used.

Aura Readings: This is the ability to not only see the different energy fields of a human being, but to recognize the balance or imbalance of these fields. Beginning a psychic reading by observing a persons aura can spark an intuitive chain reaction that sends the practitioner into a state of empathy that connects them to their client.

Astral Projection: Is the ability to separate ones spirit from the body in order to connect to the spiritual realm or a different location and dimension. NOTE- There are many psychics who claim to have this ability. They close their eyes and tremble as they fall into their chair, motionless. They regain consciousness surprisingly sometime later, relaying that they have returned with valuable information from their spirit travel. It makes for a dramatic and entertaining reading, but the messages they share are usually generic and nonsensical. For those who practice astral projection, I advise not to include this ability in their reading practice. Astral projection has many aspects that are influenced by variable forces at play. The visions that are experienced are mixed with straight forward information and images that can only be interpreted with experience. Not to mention, you can return back from your astral trip only to discover your client has robbed your office and wiped you out. I'm just kidding, kinda.

Automatic writing: The ability to connect to the sub conscious and write information automatically while circumventing the conscious mind. A practitioner can also connect to an independent intelligence that guides their automatic writing and influence the information contained. NOTE - I have met several psychics who posses this ability portraying remarkable results. Beginners in this practice should first practice connecting to their own sub conscious before venturing beyond. If the psychic is not experienced, they can easily be mislead by other forces who do not have their best interest at heart. The subsequent information received can be misleading and in some cases, detrimental to the psychic and their client.

Clairvoyance: This ability is usually confused with the ability to see the future and its outcome. Clairvoyance is the ability to receive visions of future events. These events maybe clear, but for the most part are not. These visions are bits and pieces of a larger puzzle. NOTE - most bona fide psychics (including myself) have the ability of clairvoyance, but only through years of experience can one differentiate a vision from an outcome.

Channeling: The ability to circumvent the conscious and sub conscious in order to become a free vessel and invite a particular spirit or entity to be channeled through the body. NOTE - I do not have to state the dangers of this practice to the novice. My mother for example, was well known for her ability of channeling. Even with her extensive knowledge and experience, she still ran into a few close calls. This is also an ability that con artist psychics act out in order to dupe and scare clients for profit.

Divination: Is the ability of predicting the future through a broad spectrum of mediums which include Precognition (Simply knowing the future. This is a misused term because the ability gives you clumps of visions. Nobody, not even I can predict the future 100% because the space and time continuum is dynamic with variable changes that constantly take place. Only through many years of psychic practice can one distinguish between the possibilities and the probabilities of a predictions outcome.), Fortune Telling (most popular psychic tools are used in divination such as Tarot Cards, Crystal Balls, Pendulums, Palm Reading, etc.), and Prophecy (where messages are communicated to a prophet from the Divine Source. Psychics are not prophets and are usually confused with the term.).

Empathy: The ability to sense the emotions, needs and mindset of an individual by resonating with them. NOTE - This is an ability most qualified Psychics posses. This ability becomes stronger through psychic practices.

There are more abilities that can be mentioned, but through my experiences, have proven to be the mislabeling of the abilities I just mentioned or at best, abilities that belong in Folklore and Movies.

   Now that you have a better understanding of the different types of psychic abilities that exist, I will now go into some detail about the tools that are used in psychic readings. As I mentioned previously, these tools are mainly used in conjunction with divination ability. These tools, however, can be used to connect or amplify other abilities and it is left to the preference of the psychic.

Astrology: The zodiac system can be used as a starting point for a psychic reading.

Tarot Cards: A deck of cards that represents life, astrology, the elements and the human drama. It is a mapping system that can help a psychic see past, present and future events.

Crystal Ball: A crystal or leaded glass sphere used as a focusing tool to access psychic ability.

Coffee Cup: A reader asks one to drink a cup of coffee. They then proceed to look and read the residue left behind in the cup. This is a similar usage as that of a crystal ball.

Pendulums: A tool that the great Galileo obsessed about. A pointed object made of crystal, glass, wood, plastic or metal that hangs from a fixed point attached by string, leather, silk or chain. It is used to access sub conscious information. NOTE -  It is important to remember when using a pendulum to keep in mind you are accessing your subconscious and not other intelligence. Some individuals use pendulums like Ouija boards, which is a dangerous practice.

These are just some of the main stream tools that psychics use. An experienced psychic can use any element at his or her disposal in order to connect, facilitate or amplify psychic ability. I myself use anything from photos and business cards to car keys and clothing to access information.

   Psychic tools should never be mistaken for psychic ability. Tools posses no inherit magic. In the hands of a qualified practitioner, these psychic tools can help create wonderful and amazing results. I hope that my insight does the same for you.
