Psychic development?

[MarmaladeSun]

Hi. This might sound strange...it certainly does to me but here we go...
I have found recently that I have been having really vivid thoughts/images/ideas/sensations just jumping into my head for no 'reason'. Just really quick flashes of things. It started off being just at night time, but yesterday I was popping into the shop to get something, and I said to the kids to stay in the car - I'd only be a second. I got 3 feet away from the car and I saw a headline in a newspaper flash into my head; something about 3 children being taken from a car while Mum went shopping. The feeling and emotion that accompanied it was awful; I felt sick and shaky and had to go back and take all 3 of them in the shop with me.
What's going on? I was told years ago that I was psychic (by a psychic) but that I didn't know how to develop it. Is that what's happening now? Anyone have any experiences?

it certainly sounds it. most mums are, they instinctively know when their babies are crying and not someone else's. perhaps you need to speak to papillon.......

Can I just ask if all of the images/flashes are on similiar lines, as in danger for your children or harm to your loved ones?

If so then I am inclined to say it sounds more like the beginnings of an anxiety problem.

I have suffered from varying levels of anxiety/depression most of my life and have had similiar experiences at the beginning of episodes.

Hi
No, they're not all like that. That one was the worse I have to say. Another one was the other night in bed I had a vision of someone trying to break into the house. I ignored it (as just one of those things) and five minutes later my car alarm went off. Other ones are just images I can't quite capture...it's as if I need to harness them somehow but can't quite manage it. Does that sound odd?
As for the anxiety suggestion...I see what you're saying but I don't think that's the case. I'm the least anxious person I know...too laid back sometimes! I treat people with depression and anxiety (I'm a hypnotherapist) but don't see any of the signs in myself.
This will sound really strange I know, but it just feels as if there is something just beyond my reach.

It doesn't sound strange to me - I am a witch so take most things in my stride - just unusual that these things are happening suddenly with no previous experience.

I am a firm believer - but I also look for the most logical explanation first before assuming a psychic connection.

hello...read this with interest!
i sometimes get 'voices' in my head!
NO SNIGGERING!
like i'm interupting a phone conversation almost! once i could hear two scottisch people talking but in olden day language! then once, at work, i kept telling my boss to turn the radio off and he said it wasn't on but i could hear voices so i went to the radio and it wasn't even plugged in!
it hasn't happened for a few months but i was told that if things like that are gonna happen to you it will start slow and it's up to you to encourage it to develop!

I really try to have an open mind on psychic stuff, but I'd agree with StGM to always look for the logical explanation first.
MarmaladeSun: you may have actually heard someone prowling around without realising it & they then tried to get into your car.

Hi Marmalade How you doing, apart from the obvious?

Your 2nd post relates to me more than your first post. I have had for awhile the "it's as if I need to harness them somehow but can't quite manage it" sensations.

One way I have tried to premeditate something or work with something that is happening, is to raise its intent. This makes electrical static for me. Have you anyone you can talk to this about, being a hypnotherapist? Have you ever read much about Intent and Energy and how to raise energy?

Keep alert of yourself and make sure you visualise protection for you and your family and see if the invasions etc go away or better viisions begin.

Hi Papillon

When I do past life regression work I always use psychic protection; I wouldn't work without it. I am moving my practice to a holistic health centre next week, so there will be others there I can talk to about it. It's just such a weird feeling; not imagination but much much clearer; as in hypnosis I seem to have a heightened sense of awareness. Most of the people I know in RL though are very sceptical of such things and would have me carted off if I tried to explain it all to them!
Apart from all that, I am fine thanks . Looking forward to Autumn as it's my favourite time of year. How are you?

I am very well Marmalade

Maybe you might increase the protection to not just during your work with past life transgressions?

When I feel like something is hanging around that I don´t like, I sweep it away - with my visual broomstick

Have you ever read much about Shamanism? or experienced it? Some of the techiniques like stalking (the control of behaviour) and watching, might help you unravel the signs you are getting. I have found such techniques useful with my intuitutions.

Hi Papillon
I do extend the psychic protection to cover me and mine, but perhaps I need to do more.
Today things are spooking me out a bit. The 2 older children are back at school, and DD2 is aslepp on the settee. I was in the kitchen when I heard her call 'Mummy'. I went in to find her still sound asleep. I figured she was talking in her sleep. next time I was in the room, and heard it again and it definately was NOT coming from her. I live out in the sticks, and the house next door is empty at the moment so it can't have been from anywhere else, and yet it was so loud and clear.
Any thoughts anyone? Papillon?

And am off to read about shamanism now!

Could you please post the links if you are reading anything good about Shamanism online

Will think about you have just posted.

Had to laugh reading this as I know exactly how you feel. Years ago a pshycic told me I would be sitting in her position in years to come. (Yeh right!) I have been learning to read Tarot Cards for few years but stopped when I got a fright!!! After the birth of baby I have found my instincts to be surreal. Thoughts/Images come in to my mind which happen right away or next day/month. Maybe giving birth opens the spiritual channels. ???. I am fighting with my concience just now. For years I have wanted to go to a Spiritualist Circle to deveop skills but I am scared. I have a Spiritualist friend who warns of the negative side. i.e. Spirits trying to talk persistently when you are trying to sleep/relax. Bad spirits who can enter when your barrier is down i.e after a few drinks, we all let barriers down! There is a lot to question over how much we do actually want to know.

Hi Lainey, I'm glad I'm not the only one! I know what you mean about how much do we actually want this? if it can be controlled then yes but I would hate it to be constant which it isn't at the moment. I too keep saying I will go to the spiritualist church every Saturday, but I think maybe I am scared it will be like a snowball effect, and once I allow it to happen I won't be able to stop it. Plus I have no one to go with me, as hubby doesn't believe in it. He thinks I'm going booloo!
Papillon...I started reading up on shamanism but I didn't get very far as it scared the out of me! One of the first things I read was that it can lead to demon possession so I logged out pretty sharpish! I'm sure it was a biased view but first impressions do stay with you.
I think maybe I am struggling with this a bit also because I was born and raised a Roman Catholic who don't believe in reincarnation, the afterlife etc. They believe that this is it, and we go to heaven and stay there. I, on the other hand, believe in spirit and reincarnation and karma (I see so many things in my past life regression work) so am pulled a bit in 2 directions.
Things have been pretty quiet lately though, apart from hearing a man's voice 2 days ago sort of 'humphing' (that was humphing and not humping...now that WOULD scare the crap out of me! LOL). You know, a kind of sulky sighing sound. Again it was just me and DD in the house. But...I did have a very vivid dream about DH night before last...it was to do with him reading porn (which i don't really have a problem with) and there was something a bit deviant about it but I don't know what. Then last night he brought up something (which is far too delicate to go into here) which will require him to go to his GP, sexually related. So again...was this some kind of premonition? I don't know.

MarmaladeSun. Hello, how you doin?

I dream/have thoughts, then something happens which is similar or has been an indication... if you know what I mean. But that is where it is proof that your third eye is open but needs coaching! (From a Spiritulist Circle). You've got the gift but taking the next step is the scary bit, for me anyway. I knew a lovely women/spiritulist who was unwell for 7 months. Flu like symptomns which left her unable to get out of bed!!! She eventually went to another spiritualist who told her that a bad sprit had entered her (ohh errrr!). This was causing all the illness. After a few sessions of whatever they did (???) she was back to normal. That would just be my luck!

Whats your man doing with an STD anyway??? haha. Okay just ignore me for being straight to the point! None of my business! xxx

Me again...

Went back and read what you had wrote, again. Just wanted to tell you to send the 'Humping Man' over to my place. hahahaha

My background is Catholic and Prodistent. My parents brought us up with no religion at all, because it did not matter to them. From a Catholic or Chrisitian point of view, Spiritulism is forbidden. Really I think what they all preach should be forbidden (some of the time). My beleif, in a nutshell:- There is a Hihger Place where we all go. There is different platforms which you will be placed on. i.e. if you have committed sucide.You have to face your actions, if not in Higher Place then here, in life. (i.e. WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND). I have watched people getting their just deserved's & I have known/do know people spending lonely, lonely, cruel, non life excistences because they are having to serve their penance before they are taken to a greater place!

Forget this Heaven & Hell shit! I just dont beleive it! But, hey, maybe I'm wrong. Who knows? And I apologise for going on a bit! Always do on this subject!!! xx

STD???? I never said that! I have re-read my post, and I suppose I worded it badly and it could be misconstrued, but no...he doesn't have an STD! I'd have left him by now if he had!

I should stop putting it off and tell you Marmalade that a humphing sound came out the back of computer (mad I know) It was not just me that heard it... dd was all "what was that!!" wanting explanations. It was quite distinct.

Maybe I need to do more protecting of myself - visitors travelling down the internet waves It was about 5 days ago. Should have written down when it happened.

Papillon....how weird and what a coincidence!!! That's thrown me a bit to be honest. I think maybe it's this house we've moved into as DD2, who is only 2, seems to be going the same way. Our beloved labrador was knocked down and killed a few weeks ago. DH moved her from the road, and laid her in the garden behind the gate so that the kids wouldn't see her when they came in (me and kids had been out for a pizza and it was too dark to bury her that night). We never told the kids where she had been put, and as they didn't want to be there when we buried her me and DH did it the next morning, early. Well, a few days ago, me and DD2 were on our way out shopping, and as we went down the path, DD2 stopped, put her head to one side, crouched down and said 'aahh....poor doggy',I asked her where the dog was that she could see and she pointed to the exact place where the dog was the night she was killed!!! So it was as if she could see her as clear as day. So it's like this house seems to be opening up the channels or something. Did it throw you Papillon when you heard the humphing sound?

It threw me so much I did not want to post about it actually! With dd present I kept the vibe neutral and did not make a big thing about it.

It just made me feel that perhaps you and me both need more psychic protection and grounding. Will put a reminder on my computer so when I sit down I ground and protect myself. It what alot of forums of a spiritual nature use when having classes etc online.

Hi Papillon
How are things now? Any more occurrences? Do you do any online classes? I found a site that runs them, but I'm reluctant to take out membership unless I know from someone I know if it's any good as there are so many charlatans around.

Everything is fine here. Although I was kept from sleeping 2 nights ago and as I believe that our subconscious is an active part of our lives when we sleep, perhaps I was not meant to sleep as a form of protection from the night. Have astral travelled abit, not so much recently.

Have tried an online course, did a mystic familiar one, which I found quite disappointing - but it was very short. I quite like this site, but have been for some time.

How are you doing? Have you been doing anything different and noticing any changes?
