Overview

The term "Psychic" is generally taken as referring to the ability to perceive or sense things beyond the normal range of the five physical senses, and in general parlance, is often summed up as a kind of 'sixth sense'. There is a psychic or 'subtle perception' sense corresponding to each of the physical senses, and so everyone may be said to be potentially psychic, in that each person has a subtle energy aspect to themselves through which Psychic Perception will function. Just as some people have one or more aspects of their physical being and physical perception more highly developed than another, some people also have a natural ability to function on psychic levels.
