      When you can tell me what the lottery numbers are going to be for next week, you're psychic
      
      In all seriousness though, everyone is psychic to some degree. Whether it is that feeling you get in your stomach right before something bad happens or those little de ja vu dreams everyone has, those are little glimpses into your psychic ability.

         We have no 'psychic' ability. There are plenty of instances where a bad feeling leads to nothing happening at all - we tend not to remember feeling that way as a 'bad feeling' leading to nothing bad whatsoever isn't overly memorable. People who have a 'bad feeling' prior to something bad happening too often mistake it for psychic ability when it is simply the brain recognising a threat prior to one becoming fully conscious of the exact danger. The body going through the early stages of the fight or flight instinct is where the bad feeling comes from.
         
         De javu is also not a mystery - nor psychic. Once thought a psychic ability by some to explain just why it happens. It is better understood these days via several scientific theories. People still make money out of conning people into believing otherwise which is disgustingly deceptive.

            When I was in the military, I was hanging out with some friends in the stag bar at the NCO club when an announcement was made that a drawing was about to  take place for a $100 US savings bond in conjunction with a promotional tour by "Miss Us Savings Bonds".
            
            When members joined the NCO club, the stub from their membership card was retained for use in a variety of drawings each month. The stubs of the thousands of members were put ino a large drum and after a thourough spinning, cards were drawn for whatever prizes were being given out.
            
            When I heard the announcement, I instantly knew that I was going to win the $100 savings bond. I stood up from the table where I was seated with my friends, took out my wallet, and extracted my membership card. I then told my companions that I was going to win the drawing and I would be back in a few minutes.
            They laughed and jeered as I strode out of the stag bar into the huge main room of the club. A center aisle ran from the back of the club about a hundred or so feet to the stage where the drawing was being held. I stood in the aisle at the back of the room with my card in my hand and waited until the winning card was drawn. I then walked up to the stage and claimed my prize.

   When you meditate, you begin to be more aware of the energies around you. The far away voices could be echoes of a conversation that happened many years ago. The feeling of someone brushing past you could be because where you are sitting used to be somewhere that a person walked often. These are just possibilities, but the concept I am referring to is called an energetic memory.
   
   The colors you are seeing are called auras. An aura is the color of someone's soul. As you continue seeing the auras, you will see that each color represents an emotion to you.
   
   These abilities can be referred to as psychic, but they are also the result of you focusing on your inner energy. Don't freak out. This is most likely a good thing.

   the mind is a conduit between body & spirit. The ability of the mind to momentarily collect a full measure of a thought and release it is possible. That 'energy' is amassed from spirit. Some liken it to an overload of 'information', 'a power pop', but in truth it is something outside the mind. The spirit which you are, is constantly in unity with the Creator, who 'sees' past/present/future as the same instance. The ability for us to 'see' any of the three is because of that energy in our spirit projecting into the mind or psyche.
   
   From a quantum angle, the ability to 'jump' or 'transcend' using elemental energy is not far fetched. Misguided, but possible. The mind is limited for a reason, to keep the body from exploding/overloading with too much energy.
   
   My wife is a good example. Her energy can literally interrupt TVs, computers, hair driers, phones at times. Her dreams are always on point. Its amazing. Mine comes different in the form of healing and discernment. To each the Spirit gives different gifts.

   hasn't happened to me since, but I do still get occasional "feelings" about things like: take a different route home - usually I find out afterward there was an accident right about the time I would have been there.

         I think you've got your facts mixed up there, calpol25. Actually, human beings use both side of their brains. The left side is the logical side. People who are right-handed normally think prominently with the left side of their brain. The right side of your brain is the creative side. People who are left-handed normally think prominently with the right side of their brain. It is a known fact, however, that the average human being only uses about 10-13% of their brain, which is what I think/hope you meant to say.

            Visual cues (body language), auditory cues (their voice) along with the situation, biochemical expression and your understanding of the other person are responsible for this. Some people are better than others at picking things up from these cues and it's quite a handy trait, not to mention a valuable one for some occupations. Nothing psychic happening though.

    With meditation anyone can bring their powers of psychic to surface and will with practise be able to use them.  I had my husband test me with missing people on tv, and I can tell within 95 % whether a missing person is alive or dead.  I can also pick up on the emotions of people near me, like in line at the store.  As a matter of fact I have to be careful that I recognize them as belonging to the other people and not myself, that is how strong I feel them. 
       Meditation is the best way to sharpen your skills, and don't let those who do not believe in psychic abilities bring you down, or convince you it is not real.  It is easy at first to confuse things with your own thoughts, but after a while you will be able to discern more readily.
       As far as the person who said something about not believing until you can guess the lotto numbers, it does not work like that.  These special abilities are not meant for financial gains, and you will not be able to get rich this way.  These abilities are meant only for the spiritual or gaining insights for the good of people, for the enlightenment of ones mind or teaching another the same.
