Are You Psychic? Clairaudience Test and Development

It took me years to notice it.  I would have these words pop into my head, my little inner voice would mention something and it was so random that I would disregard it.  As I progressed down the psychic path I began to realize that this was my clairaudience and I should have been listening!  It would often manifest itself as a single word like “cheeseburgers” and I would learn later that my wife had been thinking of having cheeseburgers all day.  When I started paying attention I noticed that these random events happened more often than I realized.

In my case, I receive random words and if I’m not careful they will slip through the normal clutter of thoughts running through my mind.  I’m especially aware during moments of quiet and meditation or in times of great duress.  It seems that during my normal day to day the messages get lost in my own internal conversations.  It is never ending work trying to keep up and recognizing my clairaudience and catching the messages as they arrive.

In developing my Clairaudience, I continue to use meditation as a tool.  Sometimes I take a recorder with me and record the voices I hear, the tone or even the volume of those voices.  If I bring a note pad, I will write down everything that comes to mind and note the same things as before.  Over the weeks and months I will compare notes and recordings and try to determine what is me and what is coming from the other side.  It is sometimes difficult but after practicing, it has become easier.   I begin to see the patterns, notice the tone or even the sound of the voices that I hear and these things help me filter the messages during my everyday life.

One thing I find interesting is the number of people in mental institutions that claim they hear voices then speak and act upon what they hear.  I guess my question is are they truly mentally disabled or simply more aware than the we are?  It is a mystery and one I often consider as I continue to grow more and more attune with my higher self.  It makes me wonder who is really the disabled?  Am I the one with the problem?  Society has taught us that these types are things that make us crazy and I just wonder…

It is my hope that you find your Clairaudience and are able to develop it to an extent that it will be useful.  It really is just a matter or paying attention, being conscious or being aware.  Once do find it and can recognize it just make sure to use it because if you don’t it will sink back into the chatter of everyday life.  It is truly a gift and one I hope you can use to better your life as well as others.

I am so glad I found this article. I thought I was going nuts. I hear random words clearly. Crystal clear just single words like a person’s name or a date. My friends just look at me and think I must be half alseep or something when this happens. I am alseep and I would say half the time when it happens it shocks me that I sat up and look around the room before going back to sleep. Strange I know. I am not sure what I am suppose to do with it.

Interesting article, I started spotting significant words in my mind this year, most of the time when i’m alone and uninterrupted. A lot of the words I pick up I’m not familliar with at the beginning and once I look them up in the dictionary , a lot of the time they make sense with the situation i’m in. One example: I was broke this one time and was far away from family and friends, I was sitting on my bed just pondering about certain things and then all of the sudden the word destitute came through clear as day, looked it up and was very surprised that it kinda clicked with my situation. I also later on that night had a dream that also reflected my situation at that time.

I think I have this, but I’m not sure… I don’t hear single words, I hear conversations, and see objects and silhouettes. Then, later within a week or so, the words and pictures all happen in the exact order I heard it before, and I can never force myself to make it stop and change how it is, it’s impossible. It’s like DeJaVu. Can anyone help me?

I don’t have anything psychic at all that I know.
However, lots of times I get what is known as Deja Vu. It’s really random too. All of a sudden I know exactlly what is going to be said or what the floor underneath my feet feels like, or how many times a pencil is going to be tapped on a desk. Like I’ve just experienced this so many times before. Even the smells are a little noslagetic, like they’re so familiar (like your mom’s favorite perfume).
I know everyone probably gets this, but I guess I was just trying to let you know,
You’re not crazy. Just more talented than others(:
Have a nice day,
oh and by the way, yes I know this has nothing to do with what you were talking about.

Joe C. January 26, 2011 at 8:18 am

David,

It has been a few months since you posted. I hope that my message will find you, because you asked for help.

You are certainly not crazy. I had the same struggles. These things started hinting at me when I was 16 as well. I am now 24. For many years I brushed it aside thinking I must be crazy. However they persisted in such a way that I finally had to embrace it. As I did, and began reading about it and reading the posts of online communities (like you are doing), the skills developed further. They are a great gift, because if you are a deep thinker and a non-aggressive person who listens carefully to these impressions and feelings, you will start to understand certain secrets about our existence. Things you can share with those who ask – But do not try to impose them onto people who do not. It will not work, and you will come out feeling discouraged.

The key is to quiet the front of your mind. You might have particular circumstances you prefer to do this. For example you might have trouble doing it in a busy train station, but things will “pop” through easily when alone in your room. For those who have trouble clearing the front of their minds on command (and they are many), I suggest an exercise:

The front of your mind is always being bombarded with thoughts about your current life and situations. Your bills, your job, your commute, the weather, etc. It can be hard to brush those thoughts aside again and again as they come. Picture yourself in a deep, silent forest. It can be any season and any type of forest you want, with any colors you want. The forest is huge, and you are sitting in the quiet middle of it. Beyond the forest is highways and cities – And from those borders the conscious thoughts about your bills, the weather, etc try to enter. Keep them out of the forest. You see the worries trying to come in, you acknowledge that they are there and they are real and that there is a time to process them – But for now keep them at least out of this forest. Practice this. As you do, enjoy the quiet of the forest as if you were there. Keep enjoying the quiet. Then, new thoughts/images will come to you – Not from the cities beyond.

You will recognize your own thoughts about things in your life, and those are the ones you will keep outside the forest boundaries for now. However you will now receive images/thoughts that are clearly recognizable as “strange” and not your own. Here is your opportunity to listen to them. You may record them any way you wish – Write them down, speak into a tape recorder, or simply try and remember them on your own. Through this method I hope you will be able to listen to “the other realms” on command, but more importantly it will teach you how to quiet your mind and brush those other thoughts away temporarily. There are many other benefits to having this ability to quiet your mind – A greater ability to listen to other living humans, for example.

I will tell you because I feel the knowledge will help you. You will hear all kinds of things … Some “thoughts” are simply from human souls who are on the “other side” as they say, or as I like to call it – In spirit form, their natural state between incarnations. In this way you may hear the voices of loved ones who have passed, or even complete strangers. However, you will also hear voices that, quite frankly, come from another place. Another realm – A higher one. These voices will give you great insight and help you will all kinds of things. You will know them because of the way they speak of peace and unity. Don’t be afraid. You can benefit a lot from their communications! They speak to all of us. All of have this ability – It’s part of our programming – People just explore it to varying degrees.

A friend of mine worries a lot about demons and spirits with malicious intent. I will say simply that I do not worry about those. I am inclined to say they don’t exist, but the thing is I could be wrong – For me, since I don’t worry about them and don’t give them any power over me, they might as well not exist, but I recognize this is not the case for everybody. Sometimes when I am receiving communications, I hear what you might classify as “evil” thoughts. They suggest negative imagery to me – Images of thoughts of violence, of crime. When I hear those things, I just frown and dismiss them – Brush them away as it were – Keep them out of the forest. At worst it is just a disappointment that I was not able to hear more positive messages from others because these clowns got in the way. They have no power over you – Barriers exist between our world and this other for a reason – So that you will be protected and can continue with your spiritual growth unaffected by these clowns. They want you to believe there are no barriers – They want you to listen to them and to be afraid and obey. However the fact is you do not have to – If you sense what you think are communications from spirits/entities like this, simply frown at them – As a disappointed parent scolding a child with their eyes – Knowing they have no power over you and they cannot make you pay attention to them. Worst case you may have to suspend your “listening session” and do it again.

Good luck David – You are not crazy my friend.

Hello, yes very nice article I appreciate well written grounded advice. I have a blog where there are various articles on the subject matter of Psychic awareness. You might find something of interest there to help you on your study of psychic ability.

lisa April 4, 2011 at 9:07 am

hi my name is lisa im asking today for a little guidance,i used to attend a spiritualist church where i live and once gave a message as an experiment in an open circle i was asked if i was a clairaudience because it was my first time and the spirits helped me stand up i had never got up before as im not a confident person,i didnt know what that meant although i have some knowledge because my great uncle was a white witch. As a child i used to have very vivid dreams and could never sleep because they would happen.Just recently i had a dream where i was at a funeral i could see what everyone was wearing but not their faces only a short few especially 1 lady who is my husnands nanna but she was in white with a lovely bright light shining from her everybody else i couldnt make out who they were,all i know is that i was standing giving a reading but i cant bring myself to look to the side of me im not wearing the normal black just normal clothes at the time my husband had alot of health problems as he is epileptic,but everytime i closed my eyes i saw this dream.Last year on the 16th of april i went to my friends and stayed over we had a drink as i was celebrating my grandads birthday as he is no longer with us,when i went to bed i fell straight to sleep no dreams or anything quite a peaceful sleep until about 3 in the morning i woke up coughing and couldnt get my breath it felt like i was being strangled because my throat felt tight after about half an hour i settled.On the way home we were listening to timberlake and katy perry song when will i see you again.I got home and my husband went out so i went online and received a message saying that my ver close cousin had hung himself that night i just want to ask is this what i had seen and is there a message i have to give anybody as i can’t stop thinking about it

alicia June 20, 2011 at 8:32 pm

thanks ! I completely understand what you all are going through.

bIllie June 28, 2011 at 7:15 am

Hi,
I’m hoping you can shed some light on this.
I’ve been having the most strangest things happening…
Earliest memories of stange things happeneing was when I was about 11 years old. Everynight I could hear as if there was someone sittin in the corner of my bedroom scribbling frantically on a piece of paper.. That’s use to freak me out. Then as iv got older, other things have happened…. My bestfriendss nan died, then a couple year ago I saw here.,as clear as day,she looked straight throgh me, I was so scared I called my friend and she said it was her nans birthday. Then another time I slept round my sisters house, in the middle of the night I woke up feeling like I cudnt breathe and in the corner of the room was a figure of a man, I tried to call out but it was like it had taken my voice I cudnt make any noise. In the morning I told my sister what had happened and she freaked out a lil coz she sed I described to a T the ol guy who lived below them who had died a couple months ago

I lost a niece at birth aswell and constantly I’m feelin like she’s really near me all the time.i wake up in the night around 3 am nearly every night and its like she’s in my head.. Like she’s there sounds so weird but I can’t explain it!
Other things have happened too, I will b sitting on my sofa and there will be a cold air just around me. My boyfriend was sitting there too and he cudnt feel it. He put his arm on my hand aroud the area were the draft was and he sed it was freezing. The cold air was only around me. So strange.

I need advise! Its freaking m our .

EMiL July 5, 2011 at 10:57 pm

Hi there,

I need help after the realizations I’ve had after reading your article.
I don’t hear voices and I don’t see pictures or symbols but I have a gift.

Im thirty four years old and I have been fighting my extra sense since I was 5 or 6. My gift, which has also been called a curse is more like just knowing things I shouldn’t and it feels like Im super aware of most everything but its on a more personal level with individuals. This has caused me to basically ruin a lot of things in my life through “self medicating” because I have been fighting it. My mother has always asked me, ” What are you running from? Are you depressed? ” and I have always answered the same thing, NO, I just don’t feel normal when I am sober. I dont feel like I belong and sometimes Im not sure whos driving this body. FYI, Im NOT referring to any mental conditions known to western science because I’ve been tested for them all and I have never had any luck finding a source for these feelings.

I have now gone 11 months without drinking and during that time I have had more than enough signs or visions or whatever they are called to make it really clear that instead of trying to fit me into society, I need to strengthen this gift by going completely sober and then society will find a fit for me. Its very hard to explain, but its like my subconscious is saying ” DONT TRY TO FIGURE THIS OUT EVEN IF IT MAKES NO SENSE, JUST KEEP DOING WHAT WE TELL YOU.” So, here I am.

I have also suffered from a short temper through out my entire life. I am ashamed to share that I have thrown many things into walls and I have said some very mean things to people I love. Recently though, I have had an epiphany (not a vision since it came from my own logic) ; I HAVE BEEN SCARED TO ANGER FROM BEING RIGHT AND I HAVE NOT WANTED TO EXCEPT IT.

So what do I do now besides what you have mentioned in your excellent article? I need to talk with people, get tests and go full force with this because I have excepted it and now its all or nothing.

Im thinking a really good local meditation specialist and a Quantum Physicist would be a great start.

Thanks,
Emil
P.s. I dont believe in a God, reincarnation, ghosts or anything hocus pocus like this because, just like you said, these things have been created by man. When we die we go back to the place we came from when we were born—-without cognizance.

Mark July 16, 2011 at 3:17 pm

I am 19 and recently have experienced some strange things.. Usually before when I am very tired and try to take a nap I will see and hear things before I fall asleep. Today there were atleast 10 different voices all yelling different things at me. They were all clear but so jumbled I had to focus to hear them. My mind was working fully but my body wouldnt move.. I do not remember what they said seeing as I fell asleep afterwards..

So similar experience or just half dreaming before I fell asleep?

Nick August 7, 2011 at 8:37 pm

Hello,
I’ve had a lot of weird things happen in my life so far. My friend, who is faar more gone in this spiritual stuff then me, has a close relationship with a demon. I’ve communicated with Our Friend multiple times, including a time where he possessed me, causing me to cut my arm with a butchers knife multiple times. Our Friend has also visited me personally, though he was repelled by the cross i now wear around my neck. We communicated with him through Ouija board, and my friend has had Our Friend punish people, to much success. I believe that this has heightened my ability to perceive spiritual things better. I have had small instances of Clairaudience, but there is something similar that i don’t know the name of that i am hoping that someone else will know what to call this.
Many times, without a prompt, i’ll think a couple of words, a phrase, or a sentence. Then, within seconds, or as i think the words, someone will say them. What does that mean? Also, i experience EXTREME Deja Vu, like, picture perfect, although i won’t remember where i remember it from. Astral Projection with no recollection? Anyone very experienced in this subject matter should reply. Thank you!

JelliBean August 11, 2011 at 12:41 am

Hi all. I am a mental health professional. I have worked with clients that have schizophrenia and other abnormal psychological disorders. I feel like it is best that I explain the difference between auditory hallucinations and clairaudience. One of the differences that I have found is the perception of sound location. If the sounds are perceived by the individuals as external sound or as internal sounds. Clairaudience is spoken to your internal ear. Yes the voices sound different, but auditory hallucinations are voices that are perceived outside of the internal ear, more of a projection. That can come from inanimate objects. Psychotic episodes are not grounded in reality. If you ask a psychic to discuss what they hear, the answers provided are rational, logical, and informative. When a person is psychotic none of the previously mentioned explanations are presented for more than 30 minutes of discussion. I hope this helps someone. However, I know this comment is going to reach the intended recipients.

C August 11, 2011 at 11:51 am

I come from a psychic family, my mother does not bother with it, my grandmother is the most developed, when did your gifts start to become clearer. I have clairaudience, clairyoent, and a sensor. Most of the time I feel what other feel and can tell bits of themselves. I am only 19 but also want to not fall in too deep and get trapped with the others on the other side.

Star August 22, 2011 at 10:10 pm

Howdy all,

I am so glad to find a word for what’s been going on in my head– “clairaudience”, and I’m grateful to read the experiences of others similar to my own. Although I have friends who are accepting of the spiritual realm (I think that’s what it’s called?) it’s easy to feel alone with this sort of ability.

Over a year ago I discovered I’m incredibly in tune with my third ear, because I can listen to stones. They speak clearly, though not always with words but with strong impressions. It turned out Stormy, my carnelian agate who looks like Jupiter and carries winds like a hurricane, was so loud because he was trying to warn me of some ill-intentioned entity. Once it was banished, Stormy’s winds have quieted to a dull roar, unless he’s agitated with me.

But recently I’ve been having what I call the “echo effect”. Sometimes I hear things twice in the same day, but one of those times I’ll hear it for real…. sort of like an audio version of deja vu. It’s hard to explain. Other times, usually when I’m alone, I hear voices on the edge of my hearing, like you would overhear a TV in the next room. Sometimes it’s one voice; more often it’s two in some sort of conversation. Lately the conversations have been angry and I’ve heard the rattling of chains. I wish I knew where these conversations came from– the past? Somewhere else on Earth, or elsewhere? I live in an old town in an old house, so maybe it’s the past…? It’s just worrisome because I want to help others by nature, but it’s kind of hard to help disembodied voices arguing about something that happened 150 years ago. I’m sensitive to negative energy because it amplifies my own.

I’m not sure what to do with myself with all of this. I have a chaotic mind anyway, so this really doesn’t help things. Hopefully someone out there can identify with what I’ve said for the sake of comfort and answers. Being true to yourself in this world is hard, but it’s doable.

Megan August 26, 2011 at 9:26 am

hi, my name is Megan, i’m 13 years old and i think i’m clairesentient, also a little clairvoyant. I tuned the energy of people around me, though usually i just sense spirits. like, there was this one time when i was in my moms room, and suddenly the room smelt strongly of my dead nans ciggarettes, which was strange because no one smokes in my family. then, her picture fell down from the wall and i knew she was there. I told my mum about it and she has this gift too, but only faintly, not as strong as mine. sometimes i catch a glimpse of peoples auras, and when i’m alone, i know that i’m not because i can feel sprits energy in the room, and i can feel what they feel. my clairvoyant ability isn’t very strong, i just dream about something, and suddenly my dream switches to a completely random scene, like i was at school in the dream and the teacher asks me a question and i get wrong, but then he tells me the answer. then the next day, when i’m awake, the scene happens again but this time i know the answer from the dream so i get it right. But these things happen only rarely. i would like to know how to adapt my abilitys, but also how to control them.

mike September 23, 2011 at 3:36 am

Hi, i recently discovered that i had somekind of pyshic abilities.there were occasions where i would know what other people are thinking of and i could even control their mind or tell them what to do if they were really standing close to me p/s: i dont practice hypnosis.I would dream of something really random and that thing would happen on the next day. There were also a few ocassions where voices would speak to me from within and warn me what would happen later on in the day. I sometimes see orbs of colourful light flying past . i have been very confused and depressed bcause of this, really hope someone can tell me what to do.

kitty November 2, 2011 at 8:57 am

I am clairaudient. I have read some info, and lately I have been hearing the voice of my b.f.f’s dead friend T.A we’ll call him here. Anyways he wispers stuff in my ear, and he said his favorite female singer was le ann rymes. And I told my b.f.f and she looked like she was gonna fall off the chair, because I got it right. N I still don’t know who the singer is cause I dislike country music.

Rose December 1, 2011 at 4:39 pm

I have psychic powers, and I am FREAKING OUT. They’re getting out of control, since I am fourteen years old and pretty much finished with puberty (or so I assume – that that’s why my powers are so hard to control, that is, not that i’m almost finished with puberty).

By the way, Megan, hi! It’s so great to meet another teen psychic – well, talk to one. Sorry I can’t give you any advice, but it’s nice to know i’m not as much of a freak as i thought.

By the way, do any of you ever feel like a freak? My great-grandmother was psychic too – she died before i was born, and as far as i can tell i can’t communicate with spirits, although i can sense anything supernatural, just not always what it is. i wish i could talk to dead people. my dad died when i was six, and we were really close, plus my mom’s kind of a bitch. and i’m related to a lot of famous dead people – Dick Van Dyke, Jerry Van Dyke, Abigail and John Adams, John Alden, Priscilla Mullens, John Quincy Adams, Marilyn Monroe, Orson Welles, and Henry Wadswort Longfellow. do you know if any of them are psychic? or if they’re related to anyone who is? let me know if you are related to amy of the people on this list. that would make us cousins!

Anyway, when i first discovered my powers, i was eleven and a half – it was the summer before sixth grade. I think they usually come with puberty. I have telekinesis and it’s really strong – strong enough to control nature – although water’s my specialty, which i think has something to do with my love of swimming. i’ve actually saved people’s lives by making storms and stuff less intense. That’s how i discovered my powers in the first place: i was watching the news, and i heard about a hurricane, and i started feeling really really bad, thinking about all those people who would die. so i just kinda concentrated and wished the waves would stop, and they did! A few minutes later! Well, until i went to sleep and lost focus, anyway.

Yeah, that’s me: Aly, Super Psychic! Defender of the Weak! Preventer of Storms! Person who uses her powers to fix the school SMARTboards! Senser of the supernatural! Empath! Person who can tell you that your perfume really stinks with her super sniffer! Eavesdropper of whispered conversations which are taking place across a busy middle school hallway!

Yeah, i’m an empath, which is why i’m so cheerful. i find it extremely depressing to feel other peoples’ sadness as well as my own, so i choose to remain really cheerful and optimistic as much as possible to combat this. the empathy started when i was eight. I moved to be with my extended family (or so Mom says, but she never liked small-town life) when i was six, after Daddy died. i’m really a small-town girl at heart, and i missed our little town, which i’ll say is in Minnesota and called Elk River (it’s not, but for safety reasons i’m going to say it is. no offense but you guys could be anyone for all i know).

And Mike, i’m also an amateur fantasy writer (as i also find it hard to relate to non-psychics. keeping secrets is second nature to me – from the time i was a little girl i sensed i would need to do it someday – my ESP talkin’, although i didn’t know it yet. the point is, i don’t get how non-psychics can stand not having that excitement in their lives) and i’m pretty sure those lights are spirit orbs. i see them too, apparently we attract them like a magnet. COOL! (told you i’m optimistic.) I think it means you’re supposed to use your powers to help people soon, or that a ghost wants you to solve their death. You’re so lucky, Mike! I would LOVE doing that.

i don’t know much about the supernatural, or about my own psychic ancestry or powers. if you have any tips for controlling them (besides meditation, i do that already) let me know.

Here are all my powers (that i know of):

telekinesis
ESP
heightened sense of smell
empathy
heightened hearing
sensing the supernatural

When i get mad (usually during a fight with my mom or stepdad), my telekinesis gets out of control, and since it’s so strong, that can cause major disasters. so i need to know how to stop this from happening. If you’re an experienced psychic or come from a family of psychics (which i do, but as far as i can tell i’m the last one left, save for possibly my younger cousins as they haven’t hit puberty yet). i will be posting questions on here often. please answer them! seriously, i’m begging you! I need to know this stuff! For the sake of anyone who might get hurt via my telekinesis!

-sincerely, Rose

by the way, someone should write a memoir about what it’s really like to be a teen psychic, only change the names and setting and say it’s fiction, so that way the teen psychics of the future will have the advice of someone who knows what they’re going through – even if they don’t know it. like that book You Are Not Alone by Lynne Hughes, only for psychics instead of semi-orphans (which is what i call people like me, who have only one dead parent, not two).

someone December 5, 2011 at 1:27 pm

I am so angry. I had weird things happen as a kid and now they don’t happen. What gives?? I’m sick of explaining but it was unmistakable. Nothing helps. No one can tell me what to do to get the ability back. There’s not a single legit website for this stuff either. I feel like I lost a part of myself.

okay, i have a confession to make: my name is not Aly or Rose, it’s Bess. i couldn’t decide on a screen name (both Aly and Rose are forms of my full name, which i will not reveal). and devreau isn’t my real last name, it’s the last name of my great-great-great-lots-more-greats-grandmother, Louisa. anyway, for those of you who are whining about how much it sucks to be psychic, SHUT THE FUCK UP (Sorry about the language if it offends you, it’s habit for me. i find swearing a good way to let off some steam, and it’s not nearly as harmful as letting my telekinesis get out of control. As a result, i have developed a mouth like a sailor. but i try not to swear in front of grown-ups out of respect). anyway, i’m still kinda weirded out by this whole psychic thing – do any of you have any advice for feeling normal and/or controlling your powers? Because who knows what i could do if i don’t. i could probably explode the continent without even trying…(how should i know if i can’t?!)

also, i really want to know about channeling ghosts. i’m really curious, and i really want to talk to my dad again.

I’m pretty sure ghosts or angels or whatever Daddy is now can get into peoples’ dreams, and that a lot of orphans and semi-orphans are psychic. A lot of people at CZC (i lost my great-grandpa when i was four, so that’s why i go there) are incredibly in tune with other peoples’ emotions, and a lot of the campers SWEAR they’ve seen their dead parent(s) watching over them, felt their presence, or heard their voice.

I know Dad is watching over me, through my dreams, and because at special stuff, like when i was in dance and at recitals or like now, at my choir concerts, i feel like someone’s watching, and like they feel really proud. Like, fatherly pride. Or the time this bunch of my school’s resident bitches were standing around, gawking at this mentally retarded girl and smirking. i never would have done this normally, but then i felt this overwhelming sense of courage, which is really unusual for me, as i’m a bit of an outcast, and i felt like someone was there for me, for moral support. So i went up to the bitches and said, all snotty and whatnot, and i was like, “You don’t have to stand there staring at her, you know.”

Then, one of the bitches, who we’ll call Emma, gave me this really disdainful look, like, How DARE you approach us! Then she and the other bitches rolled their eyes and walked away. And i felt so sure that Daddy was watching, all like, “Yeah! That’s my little girl!” Which makes sense, since if my dad were alive, he would TOTALLY refuse to admit that, lo and behold, fourteen is not little.

And last year, when i had a thing for this popular guy that we’ll call Dan. He was the typical guy a girl in her early teens would have a crush on, you know? Like, TALLER THAN ME. I write this in all caps because i am like 5’8″, so guys taller than me are few and far between. and i was totally ignoring the fact that Dan was an asshole, as i’d learned to block out other peoples’ emotions years ago (then i kinda had this psychic growth spurt around the time of my 14th birthday, and it was like, FWOOOOOM! Major migraine, yes? But meditation is helping). so i was just focused on how tall he was, and he had this really nice blond hair and hazel eyes, and, like, muscles. Not too buff either, just kinda lean and sexy. and i was so shy, i barely ever even talked to him! (Does stepping on his foot and apologizing in this really quiet voice count? ;) ) So i made a total idiot of myself for like TWO FREAKING MONTHS over this idiot, and i felt like my dad was going like, “Bess, Bess, Bess. You’re smarter than this. why are you bothering with this idiot?” and like he was growling all protective and whatnot to Dan, “You better treat my daughter right, boy, or you’ll be sorry you were ever born. Bess deserves better than you, you nincompoop.” Which is something i can picture my dad saying. he always thought i was perfect. i guess it’s a dad thing.

i don’t actually hear my dad saying this stuff, it’s just a feeling like he is.

plus, i heard there’s some psychic detective named Callea Sherill. Will SOMEONE please get her on here so i can drill her with my fifty million questions until she feels like she’s gonna scream?! (well i’m curious! remember, i’m going by trial and error here)

oh, and henshaw, of course that’s precognition! i have precognitive dreams too! Tell me all about ‘em! Did you see someone’s murder? You have to tell the police! (I talk A LOT. I find it easier to block my empathy and clairsentience if i have to focus on a conversation. plus, i figured out how to put up this thing that is apparently called a ‘psychic shield’ and is so FLIPPING AWESOME. :D )

oh, and i want to solve psychic mysteries and stuff, but i want to keep a low profile. maybe an anonymous letter to the police when i have a vision/intuition about one of their cases…? how do i do this whole ‘mystery’ thing?

so…any advice? Please, i’m desperate!

Bess Devreau December 20, 2011 at 4:05 pm

oh, and i want to know if demons, fairies, and stuff are real, and if they can really possess humans. teach me! fill me with wisdom! tell me about my freakiness! ;D

oh, and i’ve always felt this really strong compulsion to travel and see the world – strong enough that i’ve attempted to do it before (and have not succeeded). is this ordinary restlessness (and i am very restless) or does it have to do with my psychic abilities?

Lydia Orsi December 21, 2011 at 10:24 am

My brother suggested I would possibly like this website. He was once totally right. This post actually made my day. You can not imagine simply how so much time I had spent for this info! Thanks!

Bess Devreau December 21, 2011 at 5:39 pm

i’ve just uncovered a mystery! A girl who is now dead said something awful to her parents when she was alive, and i want to know why and help her if i can. only problem is, i’m not a medium. so any advice?

Bess Devreau December 21, 2011 at 5:43 pm

Dear someone, maybe you just lost the gift. i don’t know why, but post the details and i’ll be happy to investigate. i think that’s why i’m psychic in the first place: my vocation is to help people…according to this site i found, i’m destined to be a humanitarian aid worker, which i would LOVE. Besides, i get kind of a little spark that only comes alive when i’m doing something for charity. it’s weird…

Bess Devreau December 21, 2011 at 5:46 pm

Dear kitty, ask your best friend about this dead guy. follow your instincts. and solve the mystery, if there is one. that’s what psychic powers are for: helping people! And i don’t know much of LeAnn’s music, but i love country. i can help you out if you want. i love a good mystery, and my own psychic powers may be able to help you.

Bess Devreau December 21, 2011 at 5:47 pm

Dear Star, there’s a lot of info about stones in fae mythology, so their might be a faerie involved…

Bess Devreau December 21, 2011 at 5:49 pm

Dear Nick, WHY THE HELL DO YOU THINK THIS DEMON IS YOUR FRIEND!? There is something seriously twisted going on here.

Bess Devreau December 21, 2011 at 5:50 pm

Dear Mike, follow your instincts.

Bess Devreau December 21, 2011 at 5:51 pm

Dear Billie, solve the fucking mystery. there is TOTALLY a mystery somewhere in your little situation.

Bess Devreau December 22, 2011 at 10:47 am

Okay, if anyone needs help with demons, ghosts, or anything, I am open for business.

Bess Devreau December 22, 2011 at 10:51 am

just not 0n school days, holidays, or any day that i’m not working, and i don’t do business in person – post anything paranormal-related you need advice on and i’ll see what i can do. in the mean time, will one of you tell me how the hell to control my powers!?

Joanne January 28, 2012 at 10:27 pm

I hear stuff as well…one night woke up worried about daughter and told husband and he asked me to phone her. I went to reach for cell phone and heard, no don’t…and told him I can’t..upon reaching for it again the voice said no don’t. A few minutes later she arrived home and at that time was being robbed at gunpoint. She told me she passed her exam and I said you got 94 … I heard it…my son said you will never guess the perfect Christmas gift I got you. I heard fire logs and told him what I heard and he just shook his head. We recently moved and I was in huge house alone and just before drifting off to sleep I heard check front door and I did not wanna get out of bed but when I did, it was wide open. This happens alot…never been told false info so I trust it. I believe it is clairaudience after wondering if I was crazy. I am not.

Ever wonder: why us?

I think i figured it out. You know those stories where humans with fairy blood can sometimes do magic? Maybe that’s what we are.

Maybe who’s *body* has the dominant genes necessary to do magic simply depends on science and DNA, maybe a little alchemy too. But who’s *soul* ends up in those bodies depends on their personality, and on God. Maybe the reason I can do magic is because of this prophecy about me being a heroine, which is why my soul ended up in Elizabeth Devreau’s body. I don’t know what the fuck that even means, but my visions ALWAYS come true, just not necessarily how I expect.

Thank you for this article. I can relate to what you speak of. It’s nice to have company, and I have much learning to do.

I don’t hear voices, exactly, but I hear different aspects of myself. I’ll think about doing something and my feelings pull me in one direction or another, and sometimes the feelings are a bit violent- they won’t let go and no amount of reasoning helps. The voices…I guess I always thought of it more as “talking to myself” until I realized one day that real conversations would happen once in while. I was discussing topics with myself, and bits of wisdom would come out…it was weird that I had that “knowledge” already. When you’re young, you’re told that this is “not normal”, but I disassociated for some years when I was young and later, older, attributed my “talking to myself” as a social band-aid – I was compensating for my isolation and loneliness. But this is what “crazy” people do, of course. :P

I guess these phenomena can be described psychologically or metaphysically…depends on your inclination. It’s comforting to hear that I may have abilities rather than social deficiencies and compensation, and that spending time in Fantasy Land may have a purpose?

In any case, I appreciate you sharing. Namaste.
