Starting to scare myself...any psychics??

Londongirl07 · 30/06/2019 00:44

I know this is going to sound crazy...but I think I sense death...

I realised this about 18 years ago...one day I was in my room and thinking of my uncle and aunt who had a farm and I was just thinking what would happen if my uncle was to die how would my aunt do everything on her own...bare in mind my uncle was healthy as far as everyone knew, no problems at all but in my mind I started to think that and no word of a lie 20 minutes later we had a phone call to say that same uncle died...

Fast forward to last week Saturday (my family had not experienced a death since) and I was cleaning my bathroom and a thought popped in my head thinking my family has been so fortunate that we have had no deaths in 18 years 1 hour later my partners father died.

A week before that I had a dream I was at a funeral in Greece (where he was from and I have never been there).

I have had dreams too that have come true and more occasions than I can count on 2 hands. I can sense things, 9/10 i know what’s happening before I actually get told.

I have had the same reoccurring dream too about my own death...

I blow light bulbs if I’m near them and in a bad mood.

Maybe it’s all coincidental...

I have been told and my mum has been told that I have a gift but I need to open up more to receive the full potential so they say...I would love to but don’t know how so any psychics on here that can offer advice?

Go and make yourself a cup of tea. There is no such thing as 'the gift' or psychics or sensing death.

@oralbelectrictoothbrush

Thanks but we all have our own beliefs

Everyone does this. You’re just selectively remembering the occasions where your random thought/dream about someone was, in your interpretation, ‘confirmed’ by something, and forgetting the many times when it wasn’t.

detangler · 30/06/2019 01:27

Either it’s nothing or it’s dodgy and dangerous. I would not pursue this.

These might be of interest:

Depending on where you live you may find a Spiritualist Church.

People are permitted to have their own beliefs, if you feel this is right for you, do your research carefully and go with how you feel, not what others say.

I think people who entirely dismiss things like this might be a little closed-minded; "There are more things in heaven and Earth... than are dreamt of in your philosophy".

Sorry OP I have no real advice except maybe attend some psychic fairs and start networking?

Please be cautious. I had a number of bad experiences with psychics before I became a Christian. I believe many are well-meaning but it is still a dangerous path to take. Google Doreen Virtue.

cavalier · 01/07/2019 13:38

There are those that have a true gift and do not abuse that gift .. there a fakes and there are people like Doreen Virtue .. whom has bailed out ..for whatever reason .. apart from Jesus someone has totally destroyed her as the person she was ... totally extremely brain washed in my humblr opinion

GotToGoMyOwnWay · 01/07/2019 15:13

I posted similar on another thread. I usually know when friends/family are going to die as I have dreams that prepare me & the family. They all accept it now & believe me when I call them to say it’s time to say our goodbyes to do & so! I’ve not tried a spiritualist church though I’m tempted but also a bit very scared.

GruciusMalfoy · 01/07/2019 15:20

On a logical level, 18 years is a really long time to go between any family deaths, so it was becoming more likely to happen all the time. I'd think it could be that you've had these thoughts before, but as nothing has happened they haven't stuck out until someone actually died.

Lifecraft · 01/07/2019 21:08

I think people who entirely dismiss things like this might be a little closed-minded;

Every single person who claimed to have psychic powers and allowed that "gift" to be tested under controlled conditions has failed miserably.

People who give this stuff the slightest bit of credence are closed minded to the fact that there is not one shred of proper evidence for it and that it's all nonsense.

mazv1953 · 01/07/2019 21:45

My mother could smell death. I remember as a child her turning to my father and saying, "Charlie is dead" (her brother) Half an hour later the phone call came. When our Uncle John died she was on holiday in Scotland, but came home early to support his wife because she knew it was coming.(he died in a lorry accident). She said the smell was unmistakable and only applied to family members. A pretty pointless "gift". She never knew how they would die only that it was very soon. And she had no other psychic senses So, keeping an open mind.

I believe all of us are born open to lots of things as we grow older we close our minds.
People have been called witches, seers, elders, clairvoyant and psychics for many centuries.
There have been generations with gift in my family, serving the CS church. I do not have the gift, but my dreams and feelings always tell me when something bad is going to happen! Along with deja vu
My daughter has something as she’s forever telling me about things that are going to happen, and they do !!
Believe if you choose and there’s nothing to be scared off, death can be interpreted as the end of something also!

cavalier · 05/07/2019 23:34

I have had readings that have left me stunned they are so accurate ... it would make that James Randy geezer run for the hills ... and derren brown ... there are people who have a gift ... or ability or whatever it’s called by people ... nobody will sway me with there ... cold reading malarkey ... my husband was a staunch cynic ... he conceded that there is something there that some
People can tune into ..

Sagb is a lovely place. I’ve been there for sittings and some of the stuff they told me was very specific. The healing sessions are great too. If you want to develop your gift further, they do various training sessions.

RosaWaiting · 07/07/2019 21:43

I’m not sure I can face the trek to SAGB

What exactly happens in a healing session please?

Usernamealreadyexists · 09/07/2019 08:56

@RosaWaiting nothing much really. You sit quietly and the healer places hands on you. I had the feeling of heat when they placed hands on me and also got quite emotional. I guess its like reiki.

RosaWaiting · 09/07/2019 11:57

user thanks, I definitely won't be trekking about for that! Good to know as I was always very curious about the place.

Woollycardi · 10/07/2019 13:27

Maybe you do, who knows.. But I agree that you need to tread very cautiously if you decide this is your gift. Try and remain as grounded in reality as you can, otherwise you may float off somewhere particularly unpleasant. And might wonder why you opened up this particular can of worms in the first place. Power can do funny things to people, and it can come in a number of disguises.

Lifecraft · 11/07/2019 13:34

They would only run for the hills if that's where they kept the recordings of their shows where they'd done exactly the same thing, without any psychic powers at all.

My Dad is like this.

E.g. I was the most unlikely person to get pregnant in the family - not in a relationship etc.
Night before I told him that I was pregnant he had a dream that he was at a Christening and was really happy.
He told his partner about the dream the following morning and they had a discussion where he said ' I guarantee someone is pregnant' - and they both presumed it might be his partner's daughter who WAS in a relationship at the time.
I was really nervous about telling him so rang him about 2pm that day. I told him that I was pregnant. His response was 'Well I knew somebody was - but I didn't even think of you!'

He has loads of dreams that come through.

I have a lesser sense of it, in that I will think about something such as 'wouldn't it be awful to lose my wallet' and guaranteed within 2 days I'll have lost the damned thing!

I believe in it. Can't explain it. But my Dad certainly has it.

babygoose48 · 21/08/2019 09:35

Don’t doubt yourself! We all have the ability to sense the energies of the universe but a lot of people aren’t aware enough To be able to utilise it. Are you an empath at all? Im extremely sensitive to the world and sense peoples energies through seeing and feeling ‘colours’ and I dismissed this for years - it really came on more when I started to accept it.

Sensing death is a funny one though, I’m not sure how I’d utilise that!

sheshootssheimplores · 21/08/2019 09:36

It’s anxiety.
