LG, How Can I Develop My Intuition?

[Lord Grenville]

Would you mind telling us (or me) a little more about how one goes about developing his/her psychic abilities? Some may think this is hocus-pocus, but I think there is something to it. I have never felt I could tap into this part of me. It is something I've always wanted to do, and something that has always eluded me...

I believe my problem was being too "tight," too controlled, too scared, too egotistical to let go of a wrong decision and change course when the signs were screaming. I think a lot of what I have learned through my marriage over the past few years has helped to flush a lot of this out.

Hi Cobra,

Let me first say that even though I have been studying mediumship for 15 years through an on-going graduate class at a spiritual institute, I do not consider myself an expert. Far from it, but I might be able to offer some insights.

I do believe that anyone can develop or enhance their intuition, mediumship abilities, psychic faculties, or extra sensory perception, though discipline and practice. Just like learning a musical instrument, some persons have more "natural" abilities, and others might need to work harder to achieve similar results.

Your second paragraph that I quoted, is a good place to examine the challenges and paradoxes of this pursuit. Mental discipline is key, and learning how to calm your mind is the best place to start. Meditation or other relaxation techniques, will help you develop this control. But the type of control I am talking about is you having control over your ego, and not having your mind be reactive to emotions, fears, etc. I still struggle with this, and I honestly am having trouble in my current situation with my WAW.

The next key elements are belief and faith in what you are doing, and faith that you can develop these abilites that are more related to your spirit than to physical reality. Belief that you do have a spirit guide or guardian who is willing to assist you and work with you.

It is important to understand the differences between different ways of knowing or receiving information, and I can briefly describe them here.

1. Psychic information - Each of us has an energy field which surrounds us, and this energy field contains information about our personality, past experiences, current feelings, emotions, physical conditions, potential future occurances, etc. Psychics or sensitive persons can access information about us through our energy field or from objects we have interacted with.

2. Telepathic communication - Communication without words, across long distances or in the same locale, can occur frequently between two persons who have developed a close bond or familiar frequency, or it can also occur between a person and their beloved pet. This communication can be in the form of pictures or clear thoughts that are instantly transferred or received.

3. Mediumship - Communication with a spirit loved one, like a relative or friend who has died and is continuing life on the astral plane, or communication from a spirit guide who might be linking to the medium from a higher realm. In most cases, a medium who has developed the ability to link to the spirit world is necessary for clear communication to take place between the spirit communicator and the desired recipient of the messages.
Mediums can receive information clairvoyantly (seeing images), clairaudiently (hearing information, spoken words, etc.) or Clairsentiently (clear sensing of emotions, or feelings that inform)

This is just scratching the surface of the basics. If you have more specific questions, I would be happy to address them here. I also might be able to recommend certain books or other materials based on what you need to know.

The thing is, when it comes to divorce busting in the emotional situations we find ourselves in, it is very hard to separate out the imagination from the authentic information, the intuition from the fear-based hunch. I appreciated the input from a few persons on my thread who were warning me about this last week, because it is a legitimate concern.
