Psychic ability is defined as an extrasensory perception an individual has to predict the future.
Contrary to popular belief, every single person actually has the capacity to become a psychic, since extrasensory perception is considered to be a form of intelligence.
But not everyone harnesses these powers.
Some are more in tune with the spiritual world while some never tap into their psychic potential.
There are many different kinds of psychic powers but they all revolve around these 6 main “Clairs,” based on the 6 senses (the sixth sense).

The Clairs are as follows
1. Clairvoyance
The most widely known psychic ability, clairvoyance means “clear seeing,” and involves seeing what cannot be seen by the eye. This could be objects, animals, people, or even spirits.

2. Clairaudience
Clairaudience means “clear hearing,” and involves hearing sounds and voices that cannot be heard by the physical ear. It includes hearing voices as spoken to by spirits, voices inside the head, from animals, and even sounds that come from inanimate objects.
3. Clairsentience
Clairsentience means “clear feeling,” which involves the ability to feel sensations that the 5 physical senses cannot detect in the material world.
For example, you meet somebody and you instantly feel the emotion of dread or sorrow. It works in conjunction with aura reading.
4. Clairalience
Clairalience means “clear smelling,” and involves being able to smell a scent that can’t be smelled by the physical nose.
For example, someone with clairalience ability suddenly smells the perfume that a deceased soul wore at the time of his or her death; or smelling flowers or burnt candles when entering a room even though there are no flowers or candles present.
5. Clairgustance
Clairgustance means “clear tasting” and involves tasting something that’s not in the mouth.

Other Psychic Abilities Outside of the Clairs
7. Astral Projection
Astral projection is based on the concept that a person has a soul or spirit separate from the physical body. The ability or experience is also known as an out of body experience wherein the astral body or the spirit separates itself from the physical body and is able to travel wherever it wishes.
Astral projection usually occurs during meditation as well as when the physical body is asleep.
8. Aura Reading
This ability is based on the concept that every individual has an aura that surrounds them. This aura is seen in colors and is located about 16’ to 18” from the body. An aura is defined as an electromagnetic field that all living beings have, which defines a person’s personality, character, fate, and soul.
People who can read auras can immediately tell a person’s nature, whether they are innately good or bad.
9. Automatic Writing
People with this ability can create written documents that come from the spiritual world. Also known as psychography.
The individual loses control of his or her own consciousness and allows spirits from a supernatural source to take over and write on paper what it intends to communicate.
10. Divination
One of the types of psychic powers that can easily be learned and mastered, divination is the process of asking questions and with the use of ritualistic tools, answers are given.
Types of divinations include tarot card readings, the use of crystal balls, runes, and spirit boards.
11. Energy Healing
Energy healing is a type of alternative medicine wherein energy from a healer is transferred to another person, therefore stimulating his or her natural ability to heal itself.
Energy healing can be done with the healer physically touching the patient, or hands off healing where a healer simply places his hands over the patient’s body, and distance healing can also be done where a healer meditates and sends energy to somebody not physically present.
In today’s world, healing can be done over the phone or over the internet.
What’s interesting as well is that practitioners believe that they don’t lose energy when they practice, and in fact, the opposite occurs: they become revitalized after each and every healing session.
12. Mediumship or Channeling
Mediumship or Channeling is one of the most known and most dangerous types of psychic powers. It involves using your body as a means to communicate with the spiritual world. Mediums allow spirits to take control of their body to be able to communicate in the visible world.
The common purpose of mediumship is when people who’ve lost loved ones want to communicate with the deceased for closure.
