This would best be suited for the "Dreams and Divinition" section...

Moving it there :)

You can find a lot of information in our Circle of Teaching forum, like this thread on meditation ... http://mysticwicks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=261

I have a friend who says everyone is psychic, but some just flex their muscle more often than others. It's like any other muscle, if you don't use it, you lose it. There are a lot of ways to practice, and as Hope said, grounding and quieting your own conscious energy can help you to open to messages.

i do meditate as much as possible (at least every day) , i work with my spirit guides often, and i have had success with my intuition speaking to me (quite a bit actually, in comparison to the average joe anyway). and there's an excersise, that done daily helps.

i was just wondering what 'boosters' i could use, daily step by step progression, i know there's 'psychic 101' books out there, but $$$ is tight right now, and my psycho right wing christian 'mom' burned my $1,000 pagan library.

be blessed,

For me, the best "boost" is working with another person or a group. Having people bring up ideas that I didn't think of is often helpful. Having someone to watch and see what I'm doing right, or may be doing wrong is also helpful. If I had to do it all by myself, I'm the kind of person who just wouldn't do it.

It depends what you want to do, and where you want to go with using your third eye. It sounds like you would like to develop clairvoyance using conscious foci; your guides are there to help but I suggest you think about what you want to use it for.

- do you want to use psychic talents in a field you work in practically? I have recently discovered that politics is a field in which people have to be able to use a sixth sense to judge people's motives and the best way to accomplish things, and that relying on conscious stimuli alone can actually in certain circumstances be very dangerous. Healing psychically could be useful for doctors and nurses, for another example. In this case I suggest you move from passive opening up to active investigation: asking your guides to open you up gradually to receiving messages from spirit about how to function in everyday life, using your dreams as more than just metaphor and allusion and actively asking your angels - or nature spirits if you prefer; they are one and the same, just appearing to differ between cultures - to help you actively participate in scrying, for example. There are lots of books on "being your own psychic" out there that are more pro-active than meditational techniques, which I find are personally very difficult to achieve at times of stress.

- are you just curious about using your talents for professional purposes, i.e. becoming a healer, fortune-teller, medium or reiki master? In this case it is worthwhile finding a "community of believers" and spiritual development group to improve techniques beyond the use of cards or oracles which many people are now discovering are useful tools of their own self-exploration (though I have had more success, ironically, reading for myself while reading for others, as it is often VERY DIFFICULT to know what the cards represent for yourself if you have an emotional attachment to the outcome). It sounds like you would prefer this angle because although many people over in the UK are waking up to spirit over the course of their daily lives - and like my mother using it for very dubious purposes indeed if they disapprove of someone else's lifestyle or soul-mate - it could be that in the States or North America it is still rather unlikely that people in practical life need any direct assistance from their guides. Britain is filled with very "young" spirits who are learning to cope with being human after spending many lives as animals. North America on the other hand is filled with spirits who have been round many times as a human being and thus they are learning to develop their natural psychic talent after the stage at which they needed to acclimatise themselves to a human body.

I suggest at this stage you examine your motivations for wanting to work with spirit on a higher level and read as much as you can of different perspectives. British books focus much more on the "how-to" than the "why" angle and Amazon.co.uk would have a lot of good literature probably unavailable in North America.

little by little, everything psychic. of course nothing to profit, and for the greater good and it harm none, healing, foresights for lovedones, telepathy, clair-all of the above :spinnysmi

i just think it's such a waste, that everyone has all this great and unlimited potential, and very little of the population actually apply themself to utilizing it. i just want to make the most of what i am, and help those who need it._pounce_
