Sixth Sense Roll Call

[kiani]

I'm just curious. How many of us here can see, sense, or talk to ghosts/spirits? And if you do, briefly describe your abilities adn what are you doing to deal with it...we can talk about experiences later. I'm really interested starting a forum/thread of some sort where we can get together and support one another. I know I need it, cuz, really, sometimes I think I'm going nuts.

ANYWAY, I'll go first.

Me: Kiani Marie
Ability: Clairvoyant, clairsentient, can see auras & energies, empath
Dealing with it: learning the tarot to help channel energies, learning more about becoming a medium; embracing abilities by finally looking and asking questions.

[puchidevil]

ok

Me: Gail

Abilities: empath, clairvoyant, clairsentient, occasionally tranced, can see aura's, can connect mentally to animals (mostly cats or mice), can lucid dream (but not control it yet)

Dealing with it: Meditation, constant studying and reading up on subjects, going on paranormal investigations (this was a strategy adopted by me - i figured if i went out looking for them, then they would stop bothering me at home - it worked to a degree - as my 'energies and abilites found an outlet :D)
I also approached the subjects in a scientific manner and studied parapsychology, Ufology, etc etc :D - that helped my understanding a lot.

[Kaija]

Me: Kaija
Ability: Empath , medium (ish... I can see/hear spirits that want me to see them... the strongest are ones that have a direct connection to me.. through past lives, not necessarily my ancestors in this one), I have dreams of the future, distant past, and occaisionally past lives. I am naturally attuned to animals and trees.. (that's a fun ability sometimes)Other things that vary with where I am, who I'm with and how I feel.. they aren't ones I can really count on.
Dealing with it: *shrug* I just go on living the way I always have. At the moment my abilities are pretty sluggish, three years of constant stress, getting worse every day has a tendency to do that.. but I can feel a bit more of it again in the new house.. My ability with spirits has shaped my path, probably more so than anything else.. I never really have any problem with it though. Although, when the movie the sixth sense came out I had to give them credit.. it did feel a bit that way then..

[Teresa]

Present:
clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentient, natural healing abilities of laying on of hands, healing with stones, various forms of divination.

I have many skills.I work with spirits and have no issues from it. The emotions of living people are what sometimes overloads me if i am not grounded and centered and shielded.

May I suggest you visit the Empathic Bunker in the Healing and Reiki section of the boards. There is already a support system in place there. You are more than welcome to join in.

[Meadhbh]

Me: Meadhbh
Ability: Clairvoyance, Retrocognition, Precognition, Remote viewing, Mediumship, Empathy
Dealing with it: mediation, tarot, hanging around the family (its inherited)

[ravenmyst]

Me, Ravenmyst
ability, Empath, some mind reading ability(mostly loved ones) see ghosts, stuff I am sure I havent recognized/admitted
dealing with it.....I live with running reflective shielding for sanities sake, otherwise I cope as best as possible

[Geministar]

Im Kristi or Geministar whichever,
Abilities, I dont know the technical words so I'll just spell it out- can see spirits, ghosts, elementals. I can be empathetic but I sheild myself from it at all times(except from certain family memebers, they always get their emotions through without even knowing their doing it)(hint,hint Miss cancermoon AKA little sister!)I can talk to animals and vice versa, especially with my beautiful cat, and can see auras although I'm still working on that ability.
Dealing with it, well I guess I dont really deal with it, most of it is just who I am, and some of it I wanted to have so I taught myself. I keep learning as much as I can about the abilities and other than that I just practice on making them better.:spinner:

[MysticWitch]

- I am clairvoyant
- I sense things
- I have always had a strong being protect me
- Today I have seen a ghost that looked real, of a relative parted a while ago.:jawdrop:

Me: Sarah
Ability: Reluctant spirit medium and avoider of OOBEs. They scare me. I see auras too and can ofthen tell if someone is pregnant or sick by the colour. I have predictive dreams and visions and premonitions. I have predicted several pregnancies (it's ***'s turn next*) and twins as well. Tarot, palms, crystal ball, graphology etc...
Dealing with it: I take it as it comes. Many people think I'm nuts. Whatever. Maybe I am. Oh and I am often to be found complaining that my photographs have been ruined by orbs and vortices. Ack.

[Kaliel]

*claps hands*

Me: Violet
Abilities: Clairvoyance, Clairaudience, Telepathy, Empathy, Precognition, Premonition, Healing Hands, Retrocognition, Remote Viewing, Mediumship, Scanning, Psycho Projection, Astral Projection, etc.
Dealing with it: Embracing it, and using it to help others figure out life. It's always nice to talk to someone who knows something about you before you have to say it, and it's nice to talk to someone that can help you get answers you need about life's questions. I also teach most of what I know I can do and I'm always working on developing myself.

Thanks, great thread!

[MoonDragn]

Me: Ko
Ability: Clairaudience, Telepathy, Empathy, Healing.
Dealing with it:Had abilities since I was a kid, saw ghosts/spirits occasionally but never really talked to them. Though they have talked to me. At some point I learned to block out all of these abilities. Now I am learning to lower my walls to allow those abilities to work again[/QUOTE]

[phoenixblayze]

first off i think this is a great idea for a thread
well, here i ago
ME:stephanie
ABILITY: clairvoyant, clairsentient, clairaudient,an empath, and can do psychometry
DEALING WITH IT well, all of my life i have been able to see and communicate with spirits. i used to think that i was crazy to, but now i have learned how to deal with it, and have found it to be useful when someone passes. its still hard at times but i understand that the dead are existing right along with us, there is no way for me to get away from it, so i just have to accept that part of myself. i often have dreams that come true, or if a friend is in danger i can just feel it. also, i can touch objects and get an imprint of the person who owned it. i deal with this by doing ALOT of meditation and grounding for my empathic abilitys. i usually keep this stuff to myself.

[LordHelmet]

Me: Eric

Abilities: I can sense astral entitys (not yet any ghosts) when I'm looking. sometimes get a visual in my mind. Aoras same thing. Sometimes empathic, includes humans, trees, sometimes animals.
Dealing with it: I wasn't born with any such senses I was awear of, I've worked for this and have not been dissapointed by anything but slow progress, (not fast enough for the eager). I suggest studying magick (not rituals, theroy) to better understand it. Paranormal science in my experience is in the dark, they try to study it from a cold perspective, like studying colors on black and white film -- 'Oh look! I think I see the shading difference between the red and blue! at last I have some evidence!!!!:hairraise

[dademan]

Me:Dademan
Abilities:Empathy
Clairsentience
Psychometry(to a very small degree)
Pre/Retrocognition
A Medium of sorts
Catalyst Telepath
Kinda of a Remote Viewer
Can sence certain Past Lives(Retrocognition?)

Dealing With:Controling some of the gifts. And also keeping the gifts(they kinda....come and go as they please). Also leaning more on channeling, as I would like to delve farther into the Psychic Gifts. Sunno what else to put here.

[Philosophia]

Name: Dianne
Ability: Empath, healing people, seeing spirits, predictive dreams, astral projection, automatic writing, and sometimes post-cognitive and pre-cognitive (generally a little of this, a little of that). I can touch objects with my hands and sometimes see what history the object has.
Dealing with it: Depends. I'm still learning how to control it and sometimes I'm overwhelmed with spirits that I can break down. I need to learn how to dim myself better and not be so open.

[Silver Ivy]

I'm Rebecca ...
I am just starting to get in touch with my abiltities ... but so far, I have had predictive dreams ... I have seen what I would assume to be ghosts or guides. I am also in tune with animals ... and generally have a good intuition. I am dealing with this and trying to find out more and develop it by reading tarot cards ... I am also looking to learn Reiki. Also - meditation is something that I am working on. Merging my Christian beliefs with my wiccan ones and trying to develop my spirituality more. I am also thinking of taking some shamanism classes too. In the past, I used to really ignore what I could do .. so one of the ways that I am dealing with it now, is just to pay attention to my inner voice and intuition and learn as much as I can - I feel like I have alot to catch up on:) This is a great idea for a thread too :)

[aislin_ryann]

Me: Aislin Ryann
Ability: Precognisant, Clairvoyant, clairsentient, clairaudiant, postcognisant, empath, auras & energies seeing
Dealing with it: I have grown up with it. My mother tried to teach me how to use it properly. I keep dream journals, do some readings, but mostly treat it as another one of my senses.

[Meirya]

Me: Meirya

Ability: Empath. The rest I don't know the technical names for... let's see...
-I don't see auras, but I "feel" them as textures, and I guess I sort of "read" them in a rudimentary way (one person I know "feels" like mirror shards and oil and roiling water; I have a hard time being around him at all. Turns out he's schizophrenic and a satanist of some flavor or another). I "feel" the energies of a location the same way.
-I sort of "sense" spirits, and I can't really figure out how to describe how that translates in my head; I just know something is there, and if I focus, I can get some sort of feel off of it. Sometimes I can open up a very very rudimentary communication, but it's extremely vague.
-I can sort of channel. A little. I'm not a natural channel; I can if I must, but usually I leave it up to a couple people in my group who are natural channels. My problem is I have too many controls and "filters" up; it's very difficult for me to relax everything enough for something to speak through me. It's easier for something to control my body movements than my voice, because words don't get through the filters very well. If I relax and back off enough, dialogue can get through clear enough, but for the most part it's difficult.
-Astral projection? I can usually tell when I've been "elsewhere" while I've been sleeping, but I rarely remember it. With conscious astral projection, it's more likely I'll remember what happened. I don't do this very often; I don't see much of a use for it.
-Shapeshifting. Not physical, of course... but I can easily shift mentally / aura shift / manifest phantom limbs / whichever. Bird is natural for me and comes on unwilled, but I can shift into most other creatures as well. I think of it as "slipping into the [insert species]'s skin"; I just take the "feel" of the animal and slip into it.

Dealing with it: Covered some of this in the above part... For the empathy, I've learned what's me and what's someone else. If I feel emotion and I can't find a cause for it, I start looking to see who around me is feeling that emotion. Or I shield, when things become too overwhelming. Everything else is fairly benign, except sometimes the channeling; occasionally I'll have the tight/full feeling in my throat that I refer to as "someone grabbing my throat", meaning that something is trying to get in. When that happens, I generally try to figure out what it is and why it wants in before I let it in or shove it off. Most times I don't want to channel it, so I "pry" it off my throat and shield.

[LadyKaty]

Name: LadyKaty

Abilities: Clairvoyant, clairaudient, clairsentient, precognisant, empathetic, able to astral project, and lots and lots of predictive dreams.

Dealing with them: Learning tarot, reading all the good books on the subjects I can get my hands on, learning to shield and block those who would use my empathic abilities to cause harm to me, dream journaling, and being willing to listen to what spirits/ghosts are willing to tell me.

[Prinsazz]

Name: Sarah/ Prinsazz

Abilities: Ive seen auras since I was very little (At that age I thought everyone could do it) Clairvoyant, clairaudient, clairsentiant, empath ( try to block it since Ive started Uni, hated waking up feeling what the rest of my corridor was feeling!!) can astrally project

Dealing with it: Id go for living with it, work with it as well as I can, just enjoy what I have, think thats really what its all about

[Diotima]

Me: Diotima
Abilities: I have no idea of what my main ability is called- I have been trying to find out with no success. I believe it has something to do with both empathy and telepathy. Basically, I can send and receive something (I think of it as energy because it's neutral term, but it's much more than what comes into mind from the word). Sometimes I can catch a glimpse from a person's true essence by looking into their eyes. Sometimes I can sense if someone near me has psychic ability.
I can sense elementa and chakrall energies.
I can defend myself against psychic attacks.

Dealing with it: I shield myself well, at all times. I try to learn to understand my talent. I believe I have them for a reason and that am responsible of learning to use them to do good.

You can find out more about from me from Empathic Bunker- I've been hanging out in there. I have my own thread, Metaphysical Experiments where I try to record my journey.

[kotu]

Me: Rowan
Abilities: clairsentient, sees auras, communicates with spirit guides
Dealing with it: not a problem as I only seem to get positive stuff which I use to help others when I can

[blackroseivy]

ME: blackroseivy

ABILITIES:I sometimes know what others are thinking; certainly FEELING (empathic); clair-audient & -sentient; have seen WITH MY PHYSICAL EYEBALLS inexplicable & SPOOKY beings.

DEALING: I am a long-time Tarot reader; in the past several years, I have been reading it nearly every day. I find that the more I read, the more my intuition - both WITH & WITHOUT the cards - is just amazing & sometimes scares me!

[Lunacie]

I'm an Empath and a Psychic. I also find that the more I do things like tarot reading, the more open I become to sensing other things. I've been noticing ghosts and spirits for the last 37 years, started out hearing, feeling, and smelling them, but after doing psychic exercises I began to see them as well. As an Empath sometimes I can pick up things from the visiting dead, and have talked TO them, but it hasn't been a real conversation so far.

[Autumn Clair]

Me: Wendy
Ability: Clairvoyant, Clairaudient, Empath, Sensative Soul ( I pick up vibration from places) and sense beings. I'm a seer of dreams : prophectic (past and future), warning, esp, survival, reincarnation, out of body, symbolic. I have visions of the first snow fall. I pick up warning vibrations (of something bad happening usually of those I know), Prophecy of death (not exactly a friend making ability) I think I've posted enough I could go on..........
Dealing with it: I've been dealing with it all my life, it was very hard dealing with the prophecy of death but over time I have grown, learn from my abilities,I'm open to my abilities and I follow a strict Seer Path Study of a wide variety of divinations learning about past pagans in history, meditation, studied psychology and early developement. I'm a dream analyst, I give dream interpretations and I enjoy meeting others and learning new things.
