Signs That You’re a Psychic

Now that Halloween season has graced our year, it’s time we get real about something- the spirit world. Humans have debated this topic for centuries, and more scientific research has been accumulating since paranormal investigation introduced technology that translates physics into meaning. Parents today are more likely to recognize when a child is connecting with ghosts and are more likely to foster that gift. My own grandmother was a secret clairvoyant for fear of being put into a psychiatric ward (granted I learned of this from a medium after she’d passed).

Checking horoscopes, studying palm lines, and sharing ghost stories is fun if not fleeting. But what happens when your day turns from Casper to Paranormal Activity? Certain things just cannot be made up, and that’s when we start looking for answers. Below are symptoms and signs that you may have natural psychic abilities. Don’t worry if you do, there’s a little witch in all of us ;)
