Empathic/Psychic abilities...?
11 years ago
Okay. So, to some this may sound a little whacky, but I swear its true and to be honest i'm a bit terrified of it. But still excited. Here's the question: do you believe in hypersensitivity and being able to pick up on things in a spiritual way? (ex. ESP, clairvoyance, empathic, telepathic, psychic)
So. The other day while on the art walk with my mom and her best friend, we decided to get a tarot card reading done at a cool little shop called Enchanted Notions. The woman was very very positive and seemed to be radiating good vibes. So we all went in there and sat down for our readings. I've had tarot done before, and have been less than amazed with the results. This woman however was 210% ACCURATE in every way on each of our readings. The first thing she picked up on when I sat down on the chair and drew my cards, was she looked at me and said, You're an empath, aren't you? I didn't know what she was talking about. Then she added, you have hypersensitivity, you can pick up on others' emotions and project them onto yourself. I was rather shocked at this, but after thinking it over it all somewhat made sense. I DO tend to feel stronger emotions and have always been able to pick up on my friends and sometimes strangers' moods and emotions. I have been able to calm people down just by touching them and projecting calming moods and thoughts their way. So, she continued on with the reading and got everything right; how my ability was causing me to get mixed up on my priorities because I was taking on so many others' emotions and had no shield. How my anxiety and depression and social phobias all played into the empathic abilities I have.
She gave me a grounding ring to help me rein in my gift just a bit, and since wearing it I do feel a bit better. But...honest I don't know what to think of all of it. It is a lot to digest. She told me that if I honed my abilities better, there's no telling what I could achieve...clairvoyance, card readings, communication telepathically with spirits and animals...the posssibilities are so broad. I've always been a spiritual person but...?
Anyways, just looking for some insight and opinions on this as i'm quite lost what to do. If I do have an ability, I might try to hone it to my advantage. Thoughts, opinions, comments, beliefs...?

my family is, for lack of a better word, gifted. each of us has little quirks or whatever, and we all get very strong gut feelings
like my mom had to go on a trip for business, but literally EVERYONE in the house said, no, wait a day, something bad is gonna happen. my thoughts on this are we've got a family history of autism or aspergers or what have you, so we're a bit...out there if that makes sense.
another, my grandmother (we adopted her into the family as an honorary grandmother XD) is incredibly sensetive. apparently she used to be able to read auras and the like, but over time lost the gift. her mother was the same (apparently).
me, i'm a bit different...or not, i haven't decided yet. i get de-ja-vu all the time. its annoying at points X3 also, as i get to know someone, or sometimes right off, i start to see all the aspects of a person's heart, if that makes sense. like...all the things that make up the person, be it through color or animal or whatever.
My range is about 200-300 feet, with very very strong emotions though.
My sister and I have some kind of telepathic link over long distances, I can feel when she is in pain or hurt even if we are on different continents. (I get a massive headache, and I never have those otherwise)
So yes it's true, people are learning more about themselves, but honestly there is no science and proof.
One of my secondary abilities of my own along with being an empathy is being able to seek and find other empathy. But that is so crazy that you are one. I can't believe I never picked up on that. Wow tho. I really wanna meet this woman and find things of myself now, I haven't honed in on my abilities in quite some time, maybe I should get back into it. It would explain of why I didn't pick up on you being one, but then again, I'm almost never around you to really pay enough attention to it.
